Identify materials, including digital tools and resources needed to create relevant learning experiences and promote student learning.
There are various aspects of literacy and it is important to begin developing instructional strategies to introduce these literacy concepts. It is crucial to examine multiple instructional and differentiation strategies in order to implement standards-based concepts related to phonics and word recognition.
Part 1: Phonics and Word Recognition Chart
Using the “Literacy Toolkit 1: Phonics and Word Recognition” template, choose a K-3 grade level and identify three standards related to phonics and word recognition.
For each standard chosen:
Identify an aligned instructional strategy.
Describe how you would differentiate the strategy to accommodate student needs.
Identify materials, including digital tools and resources needed to create relevant learning experiences and promote student learning.
Part 2: Phonics and Word Recognition Reflection
Using the “Literacy Toolkit 1: Phonics and Word Recognition” template, summarize and reflect, in 250-500 words, on the strategies and aligned differentiation you would use to inform your instruction of phonics and word recognition standards. How do the materials, including digital tools and resources, chosen to implement your strategies address the various needs and provide equitable access to all students? Explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice.
Submit your “Literacy Toolkit 1: Phonics and Word Recognition” template and reflection as one deliverable.
This completed assignment will be the first part of your Literacy Toolkit and will inform your assignment in Topic 6.
Support your findings with 3-5 scholarly resources.
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
Describe structure and function of your chosen tissue type, include locations in body and which four of the main tissue types it belongs to.
Overview
Throughout this module, we have observed that form follows function. All cells are made up of a similar composition of subcellular structures, yet size, shape, and texture varies tremendously and are directly correlated to what they do. Cancer is a pathological condition that occurs when cells no longer behave within normal parameters. This assignment will address how we can begin to understand cancer and treatments through the study of cells and tissues.
You should spend approximately 3.5 hours on this assignment.
Instructions
Choose a membrane type from the following types: mucous, serous, cutaneous, synovial.
Prepare a written paper of at least 1000 words that includes:
Describe structure and function of your chosen tissue type, include locations in body and which four of the main tissue types it belongs to.
Identify a specific type of cancer that affects your chosen tissue type and discuss pathological changes in your chosen tissue type at both gross and histological levels.
Describe how subcellular features disrupt the cell cycle, which leads to development of the cancer type identified in part B.
Examine how current therapies attempt to address this disruption in the cell cycle.
Differentiate how the body responds differently to a tissue injury vs cancer.
Your paper should be formatted as a proper research paper with an introduction and conclusion. Do not simply follow the bullet points above, but really think about what you have learned and how that relates to other material we have covered, and knowledge you have from other courses you may have taken. The Research and Report assignments in this course are capstone assignments for each module. You should be integrating everything that you learned in the textbook, explorations, discussions, and lab activities into your papers.
All references must be cited using APA Style format. Please refer to the CCCOnline APA Citation Toolkit.
Use what you have learned from this module to complete the assignment. In some cases, you may need to conduct additional research. See the Grading and Evaluation section in the Syllabus module for links to research databases in the CCCOnline Library.
- You are asked to pick a specific type of cancer that affects one of the four membrane types listed. Skin cancer is a group of cancers that impact the epidermis and is not a specific type of cancer. If you wish to discuss cutaneous cancers, you can chose from basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, merkel cell cancer, and melanoma, etc.
- Be sure to discuss what happens with your specific cancer type at both the gross (i.e., what you can see with the naked eye) and histological (i.e., what you can see with a microscope) levels.
- You are also asked to discuss subcellular features that disrupt the cell cycle. These subcellular features can be anything from a mutation in a proto-oncogene to a missing cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase, from a deleted tumor suppressor gene to a mutation in a protein necessary for the apoptosis pathway.
All sources should be reliable websites or online scholarly articles.
Describe the origination of OD and the purpose of its creation.
Discussion 1 Week 1

Which risks (and associated tasks) would be the most threatening to the success of the project and why?
The full details, requirements and grading criteria are provided in the in the attached file.
You are required to use the format in the Risk-Register Example. Please provide at least two references.
The purpose of this Individual project is to develop a risk analysis and a risk register spreadsheet for the ITP project. This is an assessment of the potential risks that your project may run into in the future, and a plan for how to either prevent them or handle them if they do occur. By addressing project risks in advance, we can reduce risks, reduce the chance that risks will mature into problems, and reduce costs, and increase chances of project success.
Word Document – Part 2
Please include the Executive Summary with appropriate changes
Questions: In an accompanying Word doc or text submission, answer the following questions:
- Which risks (and associated tasks) would be the most threatening to the success of the project and why? This discussion should be very specific to tasks and their associated risks.
- Which top THREE mitigations (and associated tasks) and risk handling plans should be implemented, and why? Remember that mitigation actions will affect cost, schedule and/or scope – so discuss what can you AFFORD to do based on the likelihood and impact of the risk?
- What are the TOTAL impacts on cost, schedule and scope for the project if the recommended risk controls and mitigation actions are taken? If you use costs, how did you calculate the cost? Will the risk handling improve things or make them worse? That is, will the project cost more and/or be less successful because of risk handling, or will it cost less and/or be more successful because of risk handling? How so? Explain.
- How did you determine those costs and impacts? Please describe. What is the benefit of mitigating risks that are identified for mitigation?
- If your project could only afford $20,000 for mitigation actions, which risks (identify associated tasks) would be implemented?
- If your project could only tolerate a 5 day delay related to mitigation actions, which risks and mitigations (identify associated tasks) would be implemented?
- What would be the most expensive (time and or schedule) contingency action/plan? Identify the associated task and explain why this contingency would be the most expensive in terms of time or schedule.
- How did you determine those costs and impacts? Please describe.

Does the loss of manufacturing jobs and jobs in traditional sectors in the U.S. provide growth opportunities in other areas? Why or why not?
Thomas Friedman’s book, The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century, contends that “the convergence of technology and events that allowed India, China, and so many other countries to become part of the global supply chain for services and manufacturing, [created] an explosion of wealth in the middle classes of the world’s two biggest nations, giving them a huge new stake in the success of globalization.” He continued by writing that with “this ‘flattening’ of the globe (which) requires us to run faster in order to stay in place… (brings us face to face with the reality that) the world has gotten too small and too fast for human beings and their political systems to adjust in stable manner…”
Share your thoughts with the class about one of the following questions, all of which refer to “the world is flat” quotation. (For more information on Friedman, visit his website at: http://www.thomaslfriedman.com.)
Please complete and answer all 4 questions.
Does the loss of manufacturing jobs and jobs in traditional sectors in the U.S. provide growth opportunities in other areas? Why or why not?
