If your boss asked you to create a database that integrated logical design best practices, what are the three most important features you would integrate in your end solution? Remember to not only just state them, but explain why and show examples. Don’t repeat the same examples of others. That constitutes cheating.

  • For the sources you identify from off the syllabus, they must be scholarly. That means:
    • No Wikipedia, Yahoo! Answers, About.com, Helium, Metafilter, Associated Content, etc, and no dictionaries or encyclopedias of any kind. 
    • In general, you should also avoid “fact sheets,” basic websites for organizations (again, unless your topic relates to things like a professional association’s approach to engaging with the public, in which case we can certainly talk about how to tackle that issue). 
    • Try to avoid popular news articles, unless your topic specifically relates to popular coverage of scientific findings. Ask me if you really feel like you have one that’s legitimate for your topic.
    • No amateur blogs—if you want to include a professional’s blog, ask me about it. If you’re unsure whether the blog entry you’re contemplating is appropriate, ask.
  • This is an ANNOTATED bibliography, regardless of which option you have chosen. For each source, include one or two sentences about the contribution the source makes toward your final paper. These claims should be clear and specific, conveying that you have actually read through them at least once and know that they’re appropriate for/integral to your paper. Your annotations should bear in mind and address any feedback I gave you on your original abstract.

I attached a pdf that includes my thesis and abstract for the paper and the rubric. I also attached two articles that I already have and please include in the 6 sources. And need to rewrite my abstract paragraph the last two sentences with the underline.  SO you need to find 4 sources for me!

Etta – Where is the line between too much and too little regulation? 

 I will attach the Unit V discussion that caused my professor to ask this question. 

Introduction:

It is essential that nurses understand the issues related to healthcare financing, including local, state, and national healthcare policies and initiatives that affect healthcare delivery. As a patient advocate, the professional nurse is in a position to work with patients and families to access available resources to meet their healthcare needs.

Requirements:

Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. Use the Turnitin Originality Report available in Taskstream as a guide for this measure of originality.

COMPARE THE U.S. HEALTHCARE SYSTEM WITH THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM OF GREAT BRITAIN, JAPAN, GERMANY, OR SWITZERLAND.You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.
 
A.  Compare the U.S. healthcare system with the healthcare system of Great Britain, Japan, Germany, or Switzerland, by doing the following:
1.  Identify one country from the following list whose healthcare system you will compare to the U.S. healthcare system: Great Britain, Japan, Germany, or Switzerland.
2.  Compare access between the two healthcare systems for children, people who are unemployed, and people who are retired.
a.  Discuss coverage for medications in the two healthcare systems.
b.  Determine the requirements to get a referral to see a specialist in the two healthcare systems.
c.  Discuss coverage for preexisting conditions in the two healthcare systems.
3.  Explain two financial implications for patients with regard to the healthcare delivery differences between the two countries (i.e.; how are the patients financially impacted).
 
B.  Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.
 
C.  Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

For this discussion board, please find an example of efforts to reduce climate change in your own life.  Note that it can be something that might serve a dual purpose, or even be one not necessarily designed to reduce climate change impacts, but is still doing so indirectly. I give you broad range on how to do this, but examples might be:

  • Appliances that are designed to be energy saving
  • Solar panels in your neighborhood
  • Local legislation aimed at reducing carbon-based sources of power

For the discussion board please:

  1. Write a short (100 word) post about the effort you have found.
  2. Include a relevant photo of your effort; this can be either a photo you find online or one you take yourself.
 Requirements
1) APA 6th Ed format
2 ) Due 10 October
3) 6 Pages (not including title page and references)
4) 5 References
5) Plagiarism-Free
 
Tasks:
Your task is to identify 3 to 5 significant questions regarding the management of virtual teams that relate to “practice wisdom” advice found in the readings, that you believe are sufficiently important that good quality research might help resolve their validity. Trivial questions don’t really warrant research, because the research costs money and other resources that are in scarce supply. We want to reserve our research resources to address those questions that really seem important to practice—particularly issues where the practice wisdom might be divided, with one group saying one set of things and one group another, or where there is no advice available at all. So what you’re looking for in the blogs are situations where advice seems to contradict other advice, or where advice given seems to contradict your own intuition or common sense, or otherwise where ambiguity seems to exist. The two systematic research studies will give you an idea of how such research might be done.
When you identify some topic of interest, you should be able to specify:
The research question itself; what are we trying to find out?
Why is this question interesting? Who might care what the results would be?
Where might we do such a study? How might we carry it out? (Please note: You’re not being assessed here on the quality of your research expertise; just give us some general ideas about how you think we might answer your question.)
What would you expect the results to be?
Any other thoughts or ideas you might have regarding this research issue.
So your paper is to consist of your thoughts on these questions regarding each of the 3 to 5 issues that you have been able to identify from your perusal of the readings of virtual teams.
Assignment:  Compose a 6-page critical analysis paper as outlined above, on the topic: Three to five significant ideas about the management of virtual teams that could be usefully assessed by conducting systematic organizational research
