Social Problems Presentation Instructions
Introduction
This assignment will investigate the concepts covered in this course and allow you to use policy evaluation, cultural values, and political outlook to discuss it.
This assignment fulfills/supports - Module Outcome: You will define how prejudice, stereotypes, and racism help to perpetuate disadvantage for less powerful groups.
- Course Outcome #2: You will identify and describe key social problems and proposed solutions.
- General Education Competency #1: You will use critical thinking skills that support cultural awareness and a global perspective.
- The Project Assignment:
As a journalist or researcher, create a 1-2 minute commercial OR 15-22 Power Point Presentation on an international (I ask that you limit your topics to non-American social problems) social problem to be shown during the news. This information should be compiled into a commercial presentation using power point slides, Flipgrid, Animoto, or Powtoon.
You must answer the following questions by also providing a typed summary in MSWord format answering the following questions if you are providing a 1-2 min. commercial. If choosing a power point presentation, please make sure theses questions are included in your presentation with answers- detailed and comprehensive, using 3 academic sources (min.) or more if needed:
- Topic selection and explanation for choosing the topic. Select a problem in another country. Since there are literally hundreds of topics to choose from, I ask that you limit your topics to non-American social problems. Identify the problem. Provide some background and/or information concerning why you choose this particular topic. Be sure to discuss who is involved. (0-15 points)
- Explain why the social problem is considered a serious issue. Provide research within the past 5 years. Is the problem increasing, and if so, how and/or why? (0-25 points)
- Acknowledge how this problem can be addressed from a journalist perspective. What path would you take to bring light to the problem if you were a journalist for this story? For example, you may choose to focus on a specific region or topic. If you want to focus on a specific topic, some ideas for you to consider might be youth (toy soldiers, child labor), gender, rape, health, illness (AIDS), drug use (additional topics may be found under helpful information). Since there are literally hundreds of topics to choose from, I ask that you limit your topics to non-American social problems. (0-20 points)
- Identify at least four sociological concepts related to this social problem. You must demonstrate your understanding by including one sociological perspective. You may select three other concepts and explain how it helps us better understand the nature of the social problem you selected? (i.e. socialization, norms, gender, deviance, dehumanization, cultural universal, alienation, role expectations, life span, etc.) (0-15 points)
- What might be one important way in which the social issue is currently being addressed in society? Examine examples from mainstream media that address the issue. Provide at least two examples of a current event, news report, or a media outlet that addresses the social problem. (0-15 points)
- American Solution. If this problem were in America, how would the problem be solved? (0-10 points)
- Your commercial presentation should be critical and analytical (solely not opinion)

Malaysia Airlines
Malaysia Airlines is owned by individual investors and the Malaysian government, which took over the
company in 2014 after two mysterious jet crashes. The airline has lost money and struggled since that
time, going through three CEOs. The current CEO, Peter Bellew, is experienced in tourism and travel and
has been asked to cut costs and increase revenues. His strategy is to maximize the number of Malaysian
Muslims (who make up more than 60 percent of the population) flying to Mecca for hajj, the annual holy
pilgrimage and an obligation for all Muslims who are well enough to travel and can afford the trip. Bellew
plans to provide charter flights to make the pilgrimage easier on travelers.
Critical Thinking
• Describe the passenger stakeholder claims on Malaysia Airlines.
• Describe the government stakeholder claims on Malaysia Airlines.
Interprofessional practice requires that health care practitioners recognize that patient outcomes are better when there is a collaborative team approach in addressing patient health issues. Also there are barriers to interprofessional practice that must be addressed among health care practitioners. The Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) is an initiative including multiple professions designed to advance interprofessional education so that students entering health care professions are able to view collaboration as the norm and seek collaborative relationships with other providers (IPEC 2011).This week your Discussion will focus on interprofessional practice. This Discussion is an opportunity for you to examine your perspective and experiences with interprofessional collaborative practice and to apply your knowledge to managing patient care.Identify a professional nursing organization and review their position on interprofessional practiceReview the following case study:Case Study:Ms. Tuckerno has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). The patient receives care at an internal medicine clinic. Her internist is not in the office today and she is being treated by the nurse practitioner. The patient is on two medications for her MS three different blood pressure medications one medication for thyroid disease one diabetic pill daily insulin injections twice a day she uses medical cannabis and uses eye drops for glaucoma. Upon assessing the patient the nurse practitioner (NP) decides her treatment plan should be adjusted. The NP discontinues some of the patients meds and discontinues medical cannabis. She orders the patient to follow up in two weeks.The patient returns and is seen by her internist. The internist speaks with the patient and reviews her medical chart. The internist states to the patient I am dissatisfied with the care you received from the nurse practitioner. The internist places the patient back on originally prescribed medications and medical cannabis.Post at least 250 words (no introduction or conclusion)an explanation of your understanding of interprofessional practice.2. Also explain the position on interprofessional practice for (The American Association of College of Nursing)3 Then explain what you think is the best collaborative approach to manage Ms. Tuckernos care.ResourcesBankston K.

Problem 15-2B Source documents, journal entries, overhead, and financial reports
Cavallo Mfg.’s computer system generated the following trial balance on December 31, 2017. The company’s manager knows that the trial balance is wrong because it does not show any balance for Work in Process Inventory but does show a balance for the Factory Overhead account. In addition, the accrued factory payroll (Factory Wages Payable) has not been recorded.
After examining various files, the manager identifies the following six source documents that need to be processed to bring the accounting records up to date.
Jobs 603 and 604 are the only units in process at year-end. The predetermined overhead rate is 200% of direct labor cost.
Required
1. Use information on the six source documents to prepare journal entries to assign the following costs.
a. Direct materials costs to Work in Process Inventory.
b. Direct labor costs to Work in Process Inventory.
c. Overhead costs to Work in Process Inventory.
d. Indirect materials costs to the Factory Overhead account.
e. Indirect labor costs to the Factory Overhead account.
2. Determine the revised balance of the Factory Overhead account after making the entries in part 1. Determine whether there is under- or overapplied overhead for the year. Prepare the adjusting entry to allocate any over- or underapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold, assuming the amount is not material.
Check (2) $6,100 underapplied overhead
3. Prepare a revised trial balance.
(3) T. B. totals, $337,000
4. Prepare an income statement for 2017 and a balance sheet as of December 31, 2017.
(4) Net income, $23,900
Analysis Component
5. Assume that the $2,100 indirect materials on materials requisition 94-233 should have been direct materials charged to Job 604. Without providing specific calculations, describe the impact of this error on the income statement for 2017 and the balance sheet at December 31, 2017.

During this week’s discussion, I will examine how and why nurse educators create individual learning objectives and end-of-program outcomes. I will first post a list of meaningful, measurable learning objectives that I have constructed and a thorough description of my learning activity. Then I will explain how this activity aligns to the learning objectives and justify how each of those objectives can be used to measure student, staff, or patient learning.
Scenario Selection
Scenario number three involves nursing students. As a registered nurse I know how important it is for the students to develop effective leadership skills, and that becoming a leader in the nursing progression involves the ability to effectively manage colleagues who initiate conflict in the workplace. I have realized that I need to engage students in a learning activity with learning objectives that will increase their acumen in managing conflict situations in the workplace. Learning objectives identify the learning that is being achieves as well as setting clear expectations for the learners (Laureate Education, 2012a).
Learning Objectives
When coming up with learning objectives, the educator should keep in mind that limiting the number of objectives helps guide the instructor in organizing the training (Nemec & Bussema, 2010). These should have outcomes that are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time bound (McKimm & Swanwick, 2009). The first learning objective is for students to identify potential problems that might occur in the workplace with confrontational colleagues. The next objective is to explain how to appropriately manage the conflict in a non-confrontational approach. The final learning objective is for each student to be comfortable approaching colleagues if this situation erupts.
Learning Activity
As a future-nursing instructor, I feel that the best activity for this situation is to act out potential conflicts. I would take a group of nursing students and each one would have an opportunity to be the nurse leader. I would come up with situations prior to meeting with the students, write them on a piece of paper that I would fold up and one at a time each student will pick a scenario hand it to another student who will act it, and the original student will identify the conflict and respond to the situation. I think the element of surprise is important because in a real life situation a leader will not have time to think of how to respond to conflict situations.
This team-based learning, allows their peers to learn from each other’s mistakes (Billings & Halstead, 2016). This activity aligns with the learning objectives by making students feel comfortable identifying and responding to conflicts, how to manage confrontation, and feeling comfortable approaching colleagues. At the end of the activity, the students will have a debriefing explaining what they could have done differently in the future, as well as giving advise to other students in their scenarios.

According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing the Masters prepared nurse ” Recognizes that the master’s-prepared nurse applies research outcomes within the practice setting, resolves practice problems, works as a change agent, and disseminates results.” Many research ideas emerge from practice and/or the educational environment. Formulating a well-built research question is challenging. Asking the right question facilitates the search process when conducting a review of the literature. Read the article “Asking the clinical question: A key step in evidence-based practice. After reading the article and reviewing the slide presentation use the PICOT framework and practice creating a PICOT question. Create a PICOT question for a quantitative study and a PICOT question for a qualitative study that relate to your area of interest. Obtain an Evidence-Based Guideline (EBG), Standard of Practice, or Best practice in nursing education that pertains to your question.
Citrus, Inc. is a medium-sized producer of citrus juice drinks in Florida. Until now, the company has confined its operations and sales to the United States, but its CEO, Heidi Sims, wants to expand into Europe. The first step would be to set up sales subsidiaries in Spain and Sweden, then to set up a production plant in Spain, and, finally, to distribute the product throughout the European Union. The firm’s financial manager, George Benson, is enthusiastic about the plan, but he is worried about the implications of the foreign expansion on the firm’s financial management process. He has asked you, the firm’s most recently hired financial analyst, to develop a 1-hour tutorial package that explains the basics of multinational financial management. The tutorial will be presented at the next board of director’s meeting.
To get you started, Benson has supplied you with the following list of questions.
A. What is a multinational corporation? Why do firms expand into other countries?
B. Discuss at least six major factors which distinguish multinational financial management from financial management as practiced by a purely domestic firm. (Please consider doing additional research on this question and document your findings).
C. Discuss exchange rate risk as they relate to multinational corporations.
D. Describe the current International Monetary System. How does the current system differ from the system that was in place prior to August 1971? (Please consider doing additional research on this question and document your findings).
E. What is the difference between spot rates and forward rates? When is the forward rate at a premium to the spot rate? At a discount? (Please consider doing additional research on this question and document your findings).
F. From a managerial point of view, discuss how your responses above will help Citrus, Inc. as they plan to expand overseas.
