Conflict | Social Science homework help

Write a minimum two-page paper describing a time you experienced miscommunication or conflict. For example, you can describe an argument you had with someone, a misunderstanding due to language differences or other cultural difference, or an incident that lead to confusion for you and perhaps the other party. The incident you describe should be detailed, but feel free to change names of participants if you feel more comfortable.
After you describe the conflict or misunderstanding in detail, analyze the situation. Why did this scenario play out the way it did? What role did you play in the misunderstanding? What could you have done differently? What could the other person have done differently? How will you avoid this type of conflict in the future?
In other words, did people openly disagree? Did they encourage open discussion of differences? Was conflict resolved? Did people yell, or talk respectfully?
Secondly, what parts of these conflict scripts do you engage in now? What parts do you try to avoid? You may want to think back to your early childhood and adolescence, and try to remember rules for conflict that your family modeled. What conflict scripts did you learn in your family?
Chapter 9 is about conflict and offers some tips to being effective at dealing with conflict.
An “A” paper will meet the following requirements:

Paper shows a deep, thoughtful look at the writer’s life and the people in it who help define self-concept.
Paper is written at college-level (e.g., avoiding use of third person where appropriate, free of errors and clearly proofread with care, sentences are clear and concise, style is formal, formatting is appropriate, logical organization, etc).
Material is clear and well organized.
The paper covered a variety of material inside and outside of the class experience.
The paper intertwines concepts and vocabulary words from the course material, lecture, textbook, resources, etc, with your own real life. (That means your paper would have a reference page, because you’re citing concepts from a least the book if not other sources.)
The paper is no less than 2 pages.

Develop a 3-4 page report on how conflict can affect an organization. Describe reasons for conflict and explain the role of both functional and dysfunctional conflict in institutional change. Recommend strategies for resolving both functional and dysfunctional conflict.
Introduction
Institutional conflict can be viewed as either functional or dysfunctional. From the functional perspective, conflict can be seen as productive because it causes members of the institution to learn, improve, and develop creativity and problem solving skills. On the other hand, conflict can be seen as dysfunctional to the degree that it threatens the structure and stability of an institution and to the degree that it stifles creativity and change. Managed properly, conflict can cause people and the institution to grow and improve.

Gis and disease monitoring | Information Systems homework help

Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Practice Management System (PMS)  integrations are complex from a technical and business logic layer  perspective. Additional systems, such as Geographic Information Systems  (GIS), Radiological Information Systems (RIS), and Picture Archiving and  Communication Systems (PACS) can add tremendous value but even greater  complexity. 
A GIS is a computer-based system for the capture, storage,  retrieval, analysis, and display of spatial data. The geovisualization  of data is an important component of health care IT analytical processes  especially as they apply to disease management and surveillance. 
A Radiology Information System (RIS) is responsible for  managing and distributing patient radiological data and imagery. An RIS  also possesses patient scheduling, report generation, billing, and image  tracking capabilities. Picture Archiving and Communication Systems  (PACS) enable digital storage of radiology images and remote access. 
These systems can be used to help monitor and manage  disease outbreaks, and they can also be used to discern patterns from  health data. In this Discussion, you will look at how these systems can  monitor health issues related to child abuse. 
To prepare for this discussion, read the following from your course text Health Information: Management of a Strategic Resource: 

Chapter 6, “Electronic Health Record Systems”

Research the Internet for information about EHRs, PMS, GIS, RIS, and PACS. The following Web sites may be helpful: 
https://www.cdc.gov/gis/
Unfortunately, child abuse is a problem in many countries, and within  the United States it is on the rise. It is estimated that more than 4  million cases of child abuse occur each year and many victims are  younger than 5 years of age. Common radiological signs of abuse include  long bone, rib, and skull fractures, subdural and subarachnoid  hemorrhage (blood clots on brain), cerebral edema (brain swelling), and  abdominal injury (especially to duodenum and pancreas). 

How might a GIS-enhanced RIS platform provide child abuse social service caseworkers with information of value to their work?
What value might a GIS-enhanced application provide to a RIS platform? 
What value would be derived from finding clusters of  child-related fractures within a given narrow geography due to a  GIS-enhanced RIS application? 
In what other ways is a GIS-enhanced application valuable within the framework of disease monitoring and management? 
What IT considerations are there with the integration of GIS, RIS, and PACS? 

Disaster recovery plan (portfolio project)

  
Develop a disaster recovery plan for an organization. There are many different templates available online for you to use as reference and guidance. Your plan should cover the following sections (these sections detail the elements in a DR plan in the sequence defined by industry compliance standards ISO 27031 and ISO 24762):

2. Introduction
3. Roles and Responsibilities
4. Incident Response
5. Plan Activation
6. Document History
7. Procedures
8. Appendices: Located at the end of the plan, these can include systems inventories, application inventories, network asset inventories, contracts and service-level agreements, supplier contact data, and any additional documentation that will facilitate recovery.
Be sure to use hypothetical and fictitious names/contacts/numbers/organizations in your disaster recovery plan. You want to ensure each section is detailed and thorough. Be sure to use the Name of each section above as your section heading in your paper.
Your paper should be 10-15 pages in length and conform to APA v6 standards. Include at least six scholarly resources (including your textbook). Use the library to find peer-reviewed scholarly sources in your paper. Be sure to use proper formatting. You can use titles/charts/tables as you see fit. Stay away from using bulleted/numbered lists.
  
PAPER FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS
Your paper must be submitted as a Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. You should have at least 10 pages, not including Title and Reference pages. Please include appropriate diagrams and images for your disaster recovery plan.
