Explain what, if any, basic democratic concepts, principles, and processes were involved.

Final ProjectDeveloping a Case StudyFor your Final Project, you will develop a case scenario. The purpose for developing a case scenario is for you to demonstrate your understanding of the materials covered in the course and relate it to professional experiences. Students producing excellent case scenarios may be asked to submit their work to the Public Administration Genome Project (PAGP). The PAGP is an attempt to digitally “map” and employ the full set of topics (“genes”), variables, and interrelationships that comprise all the matters that make up public administration. It is based on the Human Genome Project—the effort to identify and codify 35,000 or so genes in our DNA. Few people would deny that the public administration world—like the world in general—is becoming more and more complicated. Plus, no one could possibly know, much less remember, the many strategies, external forces, and their interconnected impacts that might apply in a particular situation. Hence there is a need for a comprehensive, logical, and readily available system to help capture such topics, variables, and interrelationships. Such a system could provide a rational and scientific approach to public administration and, as a result, further enhance the field’s impact on public matters such as health, security, and welfare. Contributors submit source cases in a partially structured, systematic format. The cases then are placed into a wiki database known as ComPASS (COMprehensive PA Support System). There currently are about 82 cases. The full set of cases presently includes about 15,000 variables and 15,500 relationships.You can learn more about the P.A. Genome Project from the following resources:Your Final Project must be presented as a 12- to 15-page (not including references, title page, or abstract), double-spaced, APA-formatted paper that is submitted by Day 7 of Week 11. Refer to Week 11 for specific instructions for submission.Case Scenario GuidelinesSelect an actual event from your prior professional experience in which you or the organization(s) with which you work developed, enacted, implemented, and/or impacted public policy. If you do not have an example of a professional experience or organization, select one from the literature (i.e., reputable newspapers, periodicals, websites, etc.) with which you are familiar enough to complete this Assignment. Think in broad terms about the definition of public policy. Social change and/or an organization’s strategic agenda are acceptable.Write a case scenario that illustrates how you or your organization developed, enacted, implemented, and/or impacted public policy.Organize the case scenario according to the following format:Background: Provide the background for the case scenario. The background section of the paper must include but is not limited to the following:A brief description of the organization(s) involved including the country where the case originatesA description of the policy issue and how it was addressedAn explanation of the desired outcome or goalAn explanation of the action undertaken to achieve the outcome (i.e., was the organization attempting to develop, enact, implement, and/or impact public policy or was it a combination of these activities and what was done?)A detailed description of the actual policy outcome and an explanation of the factors that may have impacted itVariables: Provide a description of the variables that effected the development, enactment, and implementation of the public policy. Use the following prompts to help structure this section. Please note, not all prompts will apply to the event you select.Explain what, if any, basic democratic concepts, principles, and processes were involved.Explain the network interactions involved, if any, and explain what they were.Explain the tools of democracy or strategies your organization used.Describe the leaders and explain their influence on the process.Explain the ethical concerns and implications surrounded the action.Explain diversity issues involved, if any, and explain how they were addressed.Explain whether the action presented a challenge to democratic governance and explain how those challenges were addressed.Explain the role of technology in the process.Relationships: Describe the relationships among the variables you explained in the previous section. For example, did the actors in the policy network related to the event influence the type of tools used to implement a policy? Or, did social networking technology used to connect actors lead to ethical issues surrounding privacy? Be creative and think about all the possible relationships among the variables.Insights: Share conclusions, insights, and recommendations that emerged from your experiences and the development of the case scenario. Include insights you have gained concerning how this case might have played out differently in a different country or culture as well as how the public policy might effect social change.Bibliography: Provide a bibliography of all works you used in the development of this Final Project.Please consult your Instructor for approval if the event you selected is not drawn from your prior professional experience.Your Final Project will be graded on a 142-point scale and is worth 20% of your final grade.Although the Final Project is not due until Day 7 of Week 11, you should become familiar with the project requirements and keep them in mind as you proceed through the course. Many of the Discussions and Assignments relate to and can be of use to your Final Project.The Final Project will be evaluated according to all four indicators in the Application Assignment and Final Paper Writing Rubric located in the Course Information area.

Susan is the human resources director at Frontline PR, and thecompany has been struggling with the cost of health care insurance. After speaking with several experts atthe conference, Susan now thinks an HSA might be a viable option for the company.Frontline PR is a public relations firm located in the Northeast that employs close to 150 people in fourdifferent offices. Public relations professionals make up most of the staff, but the company also employsa complete administrative and operations staff. All of Frontline’s employees work full-time schedules andare eligible to participate in its health care insurance plan. Frontline currently offers a standard fee-forserviceshealth care insurance option. The plan has a modest deductible of $300 per year and a 20 percentcoinsurance requirement. In addition, the company offers a flexible spending account (FSA) that allowsemployees to set aside pretax earnings to pay for the deductible, coinsurance, and other medical expenses.Susan is considering offering an HSA along with a high-deductible health insurance plan instead ofthe current insurance plan and FSA. At the conference, Susan learned that making such a change couldresult in significant cost savings for a company. The high-deductible health insurance plan would cost a lotless for the company than the standard fee-for-services plan that Frontline currently offers. While Susansuggests that Frontline make contributions to each employee’s HSA, the overall costs for the health carebenefit would still be less than its current option. Beyond cost savings on premiums, many believe thatconsumer-driven health care tends to reduce overall health care costs. Some of the experts Susan spoke toat the conference stated that when employees have a greater say in their health care decisions, they makewiser decisions and do not spend as much on health care.Susan has discussed the HSA option with Frontline’s director of finance, Allison Jones. From thefinancial perspective, Allison agrees that the option would be a good step to start controlling health carecosts. However, as an employee who would use the benefit, Allison isn’t so sure that an HSA with a highdeductiblehealth insurance plan is the right option for the company. Based on Susan’s initial explanation,Allison didn’t really understand how the HSA worked. Further, she was concerned that she would have tospend more out of pocket on her own health care.Susan is convinced that the HSA option would offer a significant cost savings to Frontline. However,after her discussion with Allison, Susan is still unsure if it is the right path to recommend for her company.Questions:10-6. What are some advantages of implementing the HSA option?10-7. What are some potential disadvantages of the HSA option?10-8. What do you recommend? Why?

How is this religious tradition addressing the issue creatively and how else it might be addressed (or is being applied) here.

Western Religion Final PaperAssignment Overview: For this assignment, you will select a religious tradition outside of your own to research and write about in a final paper due at the end of the class. Hopefully something you have heard or read as part of the course so far has piqued your interest. Once you select your topic, I highly recommend conducting first-hand research as well as using traditional scholarly sources. For example, you might attend a service in the faith tradition you selected [i.e. Shabbat service at a synagogue] and write about the impact that service had on you, especially the commonalities and differences with the religious tradition in which you have been raised and the reason for those similarities and differences. However, be sure not to write a purely a subjective paper. I would expect to see some use of the library and internet as a buttress for any position you wish to advance or conclusion you wish to draw.Format/Length Requirements· The paper should be in APA format· The paper should at least 6 pages (not including the title and resources page.· The paper should include a minimum of 3 scholarly resources (i.e. library journals, books, or credible websites – not Wikipedia)*You may team up and write this paper as a pair, but with all of the above doubled (12 pages and 6 sources).Suggested Template1) Overview of the faith tradition. How did they get here and what is at least one challenge they face today? (i.e. attracting young people or maintaining their identity with the challenges of modernity) – 1-2 pages2) How the issue fits into a larger context with some reference to relevant literature/studies – 2 pages3) How is this religious tradition addressing the issue creatively and how else it might be addressed (or is being applied) here. – 2-3 pages4) What conclusions can you draw for the future of this tradition as they go forward (either a particular community or the religion in a broader sense) -1-2 pages.
