Part I:
Hypothetical Situation:
You are competing against other students at NJIT for a $25,000.00 grant to develop technologies that will help the campus transition to sustainable solutions. Using your major field as a guide, explore one aspect of campus or campus life that can be transitioned to a sustainable model, and develop a solution to implement this transition. To reiterate: target only one specific issue. You can propose anything from campus-wide composting initiatives to regenerative agriculture. Keep your ideas simple and narrow, seeing as this is a moderately difficult assignment that needs to be finished before the end of the semester.
If you need assistance, feel free to look up what other people in your field are doing to propose solutions to sustainability issues. You can adapt and modify their projects to suit your needs. HOWEVER, IN NO WAY WILL YOU PLAGIARIZE THEIR RESEARCH. YOUR WRITING MUST BE ORIGINAL. You are only using their research as sources within your own project to compliment or inspire your similar idea.
Within your proposal, you will include the below sections in the following order:
Project Summary
Project Description
Introduction
Rationale and Significance
Plan of Work
Scope
Methods
Task Breakdown
Problem Analysis
Facilities and Equipment
Personnel
Budget ( think of the price of any equipment your project may require, salary for personnel, travel fees, etc…)
Conclusion
Appendices
Please note:
Remember, since you have a word limit, you must be as concise as possible with your writing. Be brief, include only necessary information, and make sure you devote adequate attention to each section. What this means is that if your summary is 1-2 paragraphs, the rest of your sections should contain only 1-2 paragraphs. Do not go over the word count, as word count is part of understanding technical writing as well.
Remember to include graphics, illustrations, and charts to supplement your writing. Refer to the Sample Final Proposal to access a visual of what is expected within your document.
Please refer to pages 357-377 in your textbook for formatting guidance: Your assignment will obviously not be as long as the sample; yet, all of the elements (refer to the list above) provided in the sample should be present in your work. The absence of any element will lead to a reduction in grade. Furthermore, since this is still technical writing you will also be graded upon your grammar, sentence structure, and word choice and usage. So please make sure to avoid simple mistakes so you can preserve your grade. Lastly, any direct quotations, partial quotations, and paraphrases must be cited properly. Any error in citation will result in plagiarism.
Part II:
Reflection Memo:
In a one-page, properly formatted memo addressed to your instructor, choose three areas of this assignment that you experienced challenges with. Then, in a separate section, discuss in an organized manner how you adapted your work to alleviate these challenges. Please provide clear examples followed by clear revisions. This portion of the final assignment is meant to display your understanding of the process of revision and improvement as well as your understanding of how to use the textbook as a writing tool and aid. Remember: Good writers always utilize tools to improve their final product.
If you were to design a learning program for your clinical environment centered on the use of EHRs, what would it include? How would it be taught?
Consider your experience and learning with regard to EHRs. If you were to design a learning program for your clinical environment centered on the use of EHRs, what would it include? How would it be taught?
2. Obtaining data in clinical practice:
Suggest a data mining project for your practice. Which information would you like to have about your practice area that could be extracted using data mining strategies? How can you make sure that you select and develop those that best fit your data?
3. Translating data/research into practice:
Twelve-hour shifts are problematic for patient and nurse safety, yet hospitals continue to keep the 12-hour shift schedule. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine (Board on Health Care Services & Institute of Medicine, 2004) published a report that referred to studies as early as 1988 that discussed the negative effects of rotating shifts on intervention accuracy. Workers with 12-hour shifts experienced more fatigue than workers on 8-hour shifts. In another study done in Turkey by Ilhan, Durukan, Aras, Turkcuoglu, and Aygun (2006), factors relating to increased risk for injury were age of 24 years or younger, less than 4 years of nursing experience, working in surgical intensive care units, and working for more than 8 hours.
As a clinician reading these studies, what would your next step be? Is there additional data that you need? If so, how would you obtain this data? Assuming you were part of a management team of a hospital that works 12-hour shifts, what recommendations would you give to the management team and why?
THINK about and work through the questions above, and then use the textbook and online resources to compose your response to each question individually. Remember to provide citations to acknowledge the sources of the information. Make sure you give rationale (scientific evidence and/or your clinical observation) that supports your conclusion.
Examine the health-illness continuum and discuss why this perspective is important to consider in relation to health and the human experience when caring for patients.
Benchmark – Human Experience Across the Health-Illness Continuum
The benchmark assesses the following competency:
Benchmark: 5.1. Understand the human experience across the health-illness continuum.
Research the health-illness continuum and its relevance to patient care. In a 750-1,000 word paper, discuss the relevance of the continuum to patient care and present a perspective of your current state of health in relation to the wellness spectrum. Include the following:
1. Examine the health-illness continuum and discuss why this perspective is important to consider in relation to health and the human experience when caring for patients.
2. Reflect on your overall state of health. Discuss what behaviors support or detract from your health and well-being. Explain where you currently fall on the health-illness continuum.
3. Discuss the options and resources available to you to help you move toward wellness on the health-illness spectrum. Describe how these would assist in moving you toward wellness (managing a chronic disease, recovering from an illness, self-actualization, etc.).

Alan J. Pakula’s film All the Presiden’ts Men (1976) depicts the groundbreaking investigative journalism of Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward during the Watergate fiasco. In the film, Nixon is the corrupt power that needs to be removed while the press or the “fourth estate” emerges as a check on Washington corruption. One scene shows Nixon’s unwilling cameo as he accepts renomination at the Republican convention while Woodward works away at his downfall. The irony conveys the message that ultimately, the American system works. One interpretation of the final scene, which shows newspaper headlines of the indictments of important men involved in criminal activities, suggests that Watergate was an aberration and that once the “bad guys” are in jail, normality—understood as American exceptionalism with its virtuous history, political system and values—will return to Washington. Do you agree that overall, Watergate revealed a system that works or what is your assessment of this event? What was the immediate and long-term impact of the scandal? In your answer, consider American politics, government reform legislation, and culture in the post-Watergate period. Use the film, chapter 30 of your textbook, and Kutler’s article to support your answer.
Read D. Desser’s and G. Studlar’s article “Never Having to Say You’re Sorry: Rambo’s Rewriting of the Vietnam War” and watch one of the Vietnam films discussed on page 11. Do you agree with the authors’ assessment of the “memory” of Vietnam in American films of the 1980s? Does the war constitute a cultural trauma and suppressed collective guilt that has been rewritten as victimization? Explain why or why not. In your answer, discuss the impact of Vietnam on American politics, society, and culture using the article, your selected film, and chapter 29 of your textbook as sources.
Additional guidelines:
Be sure to structure your essay with an introduction, body and conclusion.
The introductory paragraph should include three parts:
Provide a context or background (2-3 sentences) to the material you will be discussing. In the words of Dr. Darden Pyron, it should “set the scene” by providing the what, the where, the when, or the who of the material. There should be no argument here, just general historical data to set up your historical question and thesis statement.
State the historical problem (1-2 sentences). This should be the essay question reintroduced as the historical problem you will be addressing in the paper. Try to find a flow between the background information you provide and the statement of the historical problem. Why should we care about the historical facts you just discussed in the preceding background section of the introduction? What is their significance?
Provide your thesis statement for the paper (1-2 sentences). The thesis statement should have 2 PARTS. The first states your position or answer to the historical problem above, and the second provides a blueprint for the paper (or approximately three elements that will support your position in the body of the paper). The blueprint should directly correlate to the topic sentence or main idea in each body paragraph.
Body paragraphs and topic sentences: Body paragraphs should have topic sentences describing the main idea of the corresponding paragraph. They should echo one of your thesis elements.
Sources: You may ONLY use the primary or secondary sources provided on CANVAS or specified in the prompts above. Absolutely no outside internet sources should be used for these assignments. The specific number of sources required for each essay question is provided in the prompts above.
Quotations: Limit quotations to 1 sentence per page or one longer quotation of 3 to 4 sentences for the whole essay.
Citations: Cite any quotations or paraphrased content. Use the Chicago Manual of Style. See this link for some examples: http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-1.html

Read the following scenario:
You have just been promoted to the Lead Marketing Director position within an advertising company. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is currently investigating one of your advertising campaigns for “Mike’s Meatless Burger” which has been accused of using deceptive marketing practices due to the unsubstantiated claim of being “the tastiest meatless burger in the world.” In addition, the independent taste testers used to validate this claim have been found to consist largely of paid company employees. Your task is to: 1) replace this slogan with something that can be more easily substantiated, 2) develop a new IMC that focuses primarily on younger consumers in an online environment, and 3) establish evaluation metrics that can be used both to validate and demonstrate the effectiveness of your advertising campaign.
Write a 1,050- to 1,400-page paper in which you include the following:
Summarize the issues presented in the scenario.
Determine whether the claim should be considered deception or puffery, and provide justification for your answer.
Determine whether or not the advertising practices should be considered unethical, and provide justification for your answer.
Develop a new slogan for the advertising campaign, and explain why you think this new slogan will be more effective and easier to substantiate.
Select three or more digital marketing or social media tools around which to build your new advertising campaign, and explain why you believe these tools will provide you with a competitive advantage for your particular market.
