Using one of the disaster types listed above, write a report using the following instructions and outline. (Make sure you match the disaster type to the appropriate assignment!) Using the Internet, locate a news story on a natural disaster type listed above that has occurred somewhere in the world within the following timeframes: · Earthquakes, tsunami, tornadoes, or floods: no more than three years old · Volcanoes or hurricanes: no more than six years old
Using one of the disaster types listed above, write a report using the following instructions and outline. (Make sure you match the disaster type to the appropriate assignment!)
Using the Internet, locate a news story on a natural disaster type listed above that has occurred somewhere in the world within the following timeframes:
· Earthquakes, tsunami, tornadoes, or floods: no more than three years old
· Volcanoes or hurricanes: no more than six years old
Please make sure you choose an event that was large enough to allow you to address all of the components below you may not skip components and then state I couldnt write about this, the disaster event was too small; if you find that to be the case, then find another event to write on. I will do my best to help you identify this, but ultimately this is your responsibility.
You must include a minimum of five (5) acceptable sources in your paper (the book can be one of the sources) at least ONE source needs to be a primary source (article from a peer-reviewed journal).
Sources must be cited in-text as well as in the references section. All sources used, including your original news story, must be cited. Use reputable sources, such as peer-reviewed journals, established news organizations, or government sites; do not use encyclopedias, dictionaries, blogs, wiki pages, anything like askme.com or enlightenme.com, or other personal webpages as sources; avoid using news aggregation sites these are sites that do not report, rather, they collect stories. Also, definitely avoid tabloid-type news sources; stick to the reputable mainstream agencies. Informational sites (like government agencies) are not news agencies; you must locate a news story, to begin with; researching and finding specific history on the topic will come as you put the paper together. Government sites (FEMA, USGS, NOAA,
) can be used for some information and data, but they should not be a primary source; use peer-reviewed journals as primary sources for support, and news articles for more current informational needs.
Construct quality paragraphs. Paragraphs should not run on over one, one-and-a-half, or two pages, nor should paragraphs be one or two sentences. Long paragraphs cause multiple themes to run together, and short paragraphs are, for the most part, not used in research paper writing. Each paragraph (and this is a general guideline) should be about six to eight complete sentences, up to ten at the most (of course there are exceptions).
A good rule to follow: NEW THEME = NEW PARAGRAPH. For example, you switch from discussing the response to the flood to discussing the recovery; thats a new theme. If you are writing a short coverage of the volcano’s past eruptions, then switch to writing about the many foreshocks that preceded the current eruption, thats a new theme
NEW THEME = NEW PARAGRAPH.
I realize this is not an English class, but since you are in college, I work from the assumption that you understand the basics of sentence structure and paragraph composition. Papers that contain run-on paragraphs or short newspaper style sentences will not score well, as poor presentation hurts the readability of a paper, and that is part of your assignment present a readable and quality research paper. Content is not everything; your quality content must make sense in terms of presentation.
PAPER CONSTRUCTION: FOLLOW the SPECIFIC
OUTLINE BELOW
This included using the
EXACT text of the capitalized section headers(all begin with the word SECTION) listed in the outline below. You are free to use sub-headings as you see fit. (-10 points if section headers are not used that follow the outline below.)
SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL INFORMATION (150 words minimum required)
· Provide a broad introduction to the event (not the disaster type in general).
· Where and when did it occur?
· Reference two locational maps showing where the event occurred, one small- and one large-scale; place maps at the end of the document, before the Reference page (if you are not sure about the difference between a small- and large-scale map, please look it up before proceeding).
SECTION 2: FATALITIES, INJURIES, AND DISPLACEMENT (150 words minimum required)
· How many people were killed and/or injured?
· How many people were displaced (forced to move or left homeless)?
· What is the estimated damage amount (in USD)?
SECTION 3: PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF THE EVENT (500 words minimum required)
· Describe, in detail, the physical aspects, including magnitude (as measured by the scale specific to that disaster), that lead to the particular event (NOTE 1 below) do not go in to detail about the disaster type in general this paper should not cover how those phenomena work in a general sense discuss the physical aspects of the specific event you are writing about.
SECTION 4: EVENT ANALYSIS (600 words minimum required, evenly balanced)
· Could this disaster have been prevented? Why or why not? (NOTE 2 below)
· Was the affected population prepared for this disaster? Why or why not?
· How does this disaster rate in terms of historical disasters (of the same type) for both the geographical area in which it occurred and worldwide?
· Discuss the mitigation strategies, response, rescue, and recovery efforts were those efforts adequate for this event? Why or why not?
· What impacts did this event have on society and history?
SECTION 5: CONCLUSION (100 words minimum required)
· Wrap-up the paper (i.e., summarize all main points; hint: it helps to write the conclusion (as well as the introduction) last, that way, you know what to introduce and conclude!).
· Do not present new information in the conclusion.
NOTE 1: Do not provide a lengthy passage on that disaster type in general, you need to describe the physical aspects of the specific event you are writing about in time and space meaning, do not give me two paragraphs about how earthquakes happen, or how hurricanes work, I want to know the unique geophysical, hydrological, meteorological, and/or atmospheric details of the specific disaster you are writing about.
NOTE 2: Here I am asking you if the disaster could have been prevented; that is, the interaction between humans in the environment.
Do not state that the earthquake could not have been prevented or the tornado could not have been prevented, etc
of course the actual physical event could not be prevented, I know that you know that (humans do not control weather or geophysical events); answer whether or not the disaster as it impacted the community could have been prevented(see Chapter 1 for help with this). There will be a 10-point deduction if any statement is made akin to the [physical event] could not have been prevented because we cant control those things
, or anything similar.
FORMATTING AND STYLE GUIDELINES (numbers in parentheses indicate associated point deduction)
· 1,500 words required, distributed according to the outline above.
· Word count excludes the title page, captions, section headers, and references at the end of the document (in-text citations are included in the word count only if they are in the proper format, and not made excessively lengthy by including extra, and incorrect, information like full URLs, more than two authors listed, or full article titles; all in-text citations must follow the guidelines of a citing for APA or MLA guidelines).
· Papers must be at least 1,500 words. But no more than 3,000
· Include a section titled References at the end of the paper (-2 if labeled anything other than References), and beginning on a new page (-2 if it not on a new page)
· List sources for all information using APA or MLA format (see the owl at Purdue for information on formatting). Full URLs are required for website sources. (-1 point for each incorrect citation, -1 point for any citation that does not appear in the references section but does appear in the paper and vice versa).
· Place all figures at the end of the body of the document, on a new page (-2), but before the references section. (-1 for each figure placed in the body)
· Refer to all figures within your text as figure 1, figure 2, etc., label figures appropriately (all figures must include a descriptive caption (not just figure 1″), and be cited properly (short source in the caption, full source in the references section, and, do not cite Google or any other search tool as an images source search engines are not content creators find the original source, cite that). Figures are always referenced within the body in numerical order (i.e., do not initially reference figure 1, then figure 3, then figure 2, re-number figures as appropriate). (-2 for each incorrectly labeled figure)
· Peer-reviewed sources, government data or information sources, and reputable news agencies are the only two types of acceptable sources to use. (-5 for any unacceptable source cited)
· If you quote a source, paraphrase a source, or include a data-related statement, you must include a citation to that source within the text (again, Google the owl at Purdue for help with in-text citations). (-2 for any uncited material, each instance)
· Do not overuse quotations; do not rely on quoting the source to fill the word count requirement.
You NEED to paraphrase and cite your sources. Plagiarism will not be accepted.
Examines and compares information from various sources in order to evaluate reliability, validity, accuracy, authority, timeliness, and point of view or bias.

Purpose of the assignment: evaluate 2 professional and/or consumer health websites.
According to recent studies, due to its accessibility and easiness patients are using the Internet as the second source of health information after physicians, (HON, 2014). In light of this, it is important that nurses are able to identify reliable, accurate online sources for health teaching their clients or when referring clients to resources for further information.
The Health on the Net (HON) Foundation has developed a code of conduct to standardize the reliability of health information. The HON code defines a set of eight (8) principles to maintain basic ethical standards. These include: Authorative, Complementarity, Privacy, Attribution, Justifiability, Transparency, Financial Disclosure and Advertising Policy. The definitions of these terms can be found at Health on the Net Guidelines

Considering the number of athletes participating and the number of games played over the three days, ensuring an event like this goes smoothly can be a daunting task. If you were running one of these events, you would want to deliver an excellent event so that participants, spectators, and sponsors would have a good impression of the NFCA and want to return to future Leadoff Classic Events. To do so, you would have to put in a lot of planning to make event day successful. Regarding participants experiences at the event, what would be specific examples of moments of truth?
Using the NFCA case study found in the chapter 18 respond to the following:
Considering the number of athletes participating and the number of games played over the three days, ensuring an event like this goes smoothly can be a daunting task. If you were running one of these events, you would want to deliver an excellent event so that participants, spectators, and sponsors would have a good impression of the NFCA and want to return to future Leadoff Classic Events. To do so, you would have to put in a lot of planning to make event day successful.
Regarding participants experiences at the event, what would be specific examples of moments of truth? Based on these moments of truth, what services would you need to provide the teams in order to ensure a good experience for them? What information would it be necessary to provide participating teams?
Hint: Identify a series of moments of truth and conceptualize how to increase satisfaction or reduce dissatisfaction at each point.
It would be impossible for one person to manage all of the games and activities that need to take place, which means you would have to rely heavily on your staff. How would you make sure your staff provides a good experience for everyone involved?
Hint: Identify areas where staff will need training and education, and illustrate how staff will be supervised.
The event also draws spectators. What would be your admissions policies? How could you effectively communicate with spectators at the event to make certain they enjoy their experience?
Hint: There are many different admission policies, each with advantages and disadvantages. The challenge is to identify the best policy for your event. Communication with spectators will often make or break the experience.
Events like these often rely on sponsors to cover costs and provide needed goods and services. How can you make sure sponsors are satisfied with their partnership with you and would want to renew for future events?
Hint: The key to making sure sponsors are satisfied with the partnership is to underpromise and overdeliver. Identify ways to deliver over and above what was promised.

Explain ways in which stereotypes can influence memory and perceptions of events. What are common stereotypes of the specific minority groups explained in the training guide? How may one differentiate those stereotypes from accurate descriptions of the minority groups? Identify the principal psychological motivations underlying prejudice.
Part I
The Uniform Crime Reports page on the FBI Web site provides links for its annual Crime in the United States publications. Before you are able to view one of these reports, you are given the following disclaimer:
Caution Against RankingEach year when Crime in the United States is published, some entities use reported figures to compile rankings of cities and counties. These rough rankings provide no insight into the numerous variables that mold crime in a particular town, city, county, state, or region. Consequently, they lead to simplistic and/or incomplete analyses that often create misleading perceptions adversely affecting communities and their residents. Valid assessments are possible only with careful study and analysis of the range of unique conditions affecting each local law enforcement jurisdiction. The data user is, therefore, cautioned against comparing statistical data of individual reporting units from cities, metropolitan areas, states, or colleges or universities solely on the basis of their population coverage or student enrollment.
Discuss the following:
Why do you think this cautionary notice is given before users are directed to the FBI’s Crime in the United States publication? Expand on your viewpoint, and find credible sources to support your rationale.
Click here if you would like to visit the Web site.
Part II
Open the Hate Crime Data Collection Guidelines and Training Manual, scroll down to page 4, and review the Table of Contents. Specifically, look at hate crimes and the different classifications of bias. Using the Table of Contents, complete the following:
Define and describe the following terms:
Bias
Race bias

For this first Case Assignment, your task is to apply some of the leadership development tools that you read about in the background materials to your own personal development. As a warning, this assignment as well as several other assignments will involve taking a lot of surveys. Of course surveys are not the only tools used in leadership development, but they are one of the most popular tools and many leadership coaching companies charge a lot of money for the surveys that theyve developed. Fortunately some of the surveys discussed in the background readings are available for free. The purpose of taking the quizzes are both for use in your leadership development, and also to get a taste of what various leadership coaches out there are doing and charging their clients for.
Make sure to thoroughly review the background readings before writing your paper. The main tasks in this assignment are A) read the background materials, B) take some self-assessment quizzes, and C) write up a self-development plan based on what youve read about in this module and your score on the quizzes. More specifically, write a four to five page paper addressing the following questions:
1. Take the Values in Action (VIA) Inventory of Strengths that was discussed in the background materials. This instrument is available for free but you need to register:
https://www.viacharacter.org/survey/account/register
If you can find a free variation of the Strengthsfinder survey online you take this one instead, but the official Strengthsfinder survey from Gallup is not free. Report and discuss your results. Were your results surprising or what you expected to find? [One half to one page in length]
2. Now take the Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment in Chapter 3 of Sterret (2006) as well as the Leadership Assessment in this chapter. Discuss how you scored on each of the different elements of Emotional Intelligence as well as your Leadership Assessment. Report and discuss your results. Were your results surprising or what you expected to find? [One half to one page in length]
3. Now we get to the main heart of the assignment. Based on what you have learned in this module and the quizzes you took above, give some specific examples of how you will improve your leadership skills. Your examples should be based on both your results on the two quizzes, and from the required readings. Make sure to cite at least two of the required readings in your answers, and support your answers with specific results from the quizzes that you took. [One and a half to two pages]
4. Finally, discuss the main limitations of the quizzes you took and the concepts you read about for this module. What information is missing from the quizzes you took? What additional important aspects of leadership development are not covered in this material or quizzes? What else do you think you need to know about yourself in order to improve your leadership skills? [One page]
