Create a PowerPoint You will find a case study or a research project in the area you studying, use the library website to find your case study. It is recommended that you find a case study in the field you are studying, but any case study is fine for this presentation.

Your presentation will need to include slides on the following areas:

· Introduction to the case

· Methods used to conduct the research

· What was found (findings)

· How it was implemented

Creativity should be evident throughout the Power Point presentation. Treat this presentation as though you were presenting to an employer, all aspects of the Power Point will be assessed.

Feel free to use the notes section in PowerPoint if you would like to make any special presentation notations of how you would present your information.

Identify any governing labor laws as well as any historical influences, legal precedents, or decisions that apply to this situation.

 In the nonunion facility where you work in a human resources (HR) role, there have been rumors of union-organizing activity. There are numerous reports of e-mails to hourly employees at their work e-mail addresses seeking support for union representation. Pamphlets detailing  workers’ rights and suggesting that voting in a union will increase pay and benefits have been distributed in various areas of the facility and in the parking areas.As the human resources (HR) representative, the company’s management asks for your advice and guidance on whether a union has the right to contact workers through their work e-mail addresses and distribute pamphlets on company property. They want to know what the company can do to respond to these tactics and to the union’s message that it can enhance workers’ pay and benefits.Prepare a proposal that includes your analysis and evidence-supported argument for the proper actions the company should take. Include the following 

  • Identify any governing labor laws as well as any historical influences, legal precedents, or decisions that apply to this situation.
  • Conduct an analysis of legality of the union-organizing actions, including communications using employer e-mail and distributing literature at the employer’s facility.
  • Propose a strategy that outlines the actions the company can and cannot take to limit or combat union-organizing actions.
  • Provide guidance on the messages and information employers can and cannot communicate in response to union organizing activity and legal risks associated with common tactics.
Create a lesson plan using the GSU template provided for how you would use the Elements of Dance to guide your students in creating their own dances about your chosen topic.

Choose a science topic that you are relatively familiar with that you think could be best illustrated through movement. Examples include the life cycle of a frog or butterfly, the solar system, elements of the Periodic Table, etc.  Create a lesson plan using the GSU template provided for how you would use the Elements of Dance to guide your students in creating their own dances about your chosen topic.

Important considerations:

Research the science material and plan time in your lesson to introduce this content. What science lessons should students take away from the lesson?

How will you differentiate the lesson for students needing a challenge, students needing extra support, and students with special needs? How would you adapt it for the other grades and skill levels?

Include the cross-curriculum PE Standards, Dance Standards, and Science Standards that should accompany the lesson.

Do you think there are messages about gender, age, social class, etc. present in your cards beyond the event for which they were intended?

Greeting Card Assignment: Please choose 3

different greeting cards that are available at your

local store or online. (Please note you do not have

to purchase these cards). You will need to choose 3

cards for the same event (e.g. birthday cards) to

compare.For this assignment you will be discussing whether or not

you think that greeting cards send us cultural

messages beyond the event they were written for.

Please analyze your cards, taking note of colors,

images, words, etc. Then answer the following

questions: Do you think there are messages about

gender, age, social class, etc. present in your cards

beyond the event for which they were intended? Do

these messages differ based on the expected

audience? 1 ½ pages

What kind of hook will you use to introduce this radical idea of yours?

1. Make a list of at least five that may include the following: 

  • “Truth” — statement you know to be true and can prove it with evidence from your own life
  • An opinion you have that may not be popular, but you know you are right. 
  • Defense for an opinion you have using personal evidence. Just state the opinion, not your personal evidence.
  • Something that happens and you know it cannot just be coincidence because it has happened too often. 

Some examples:

  • It is a bad idea to go to Walmart when you are hungry, when you do not have a list, or when you have no money. 
  • Some people create their own problems. 
  • We may think we are not implicitly biased, but we are. 
  • Some people choose to be ignorant. 
  • If you’re coming to college for the “Pell Grant payout,” you shouldn’t be here. 
  • The entitlement schema is rampant in society today, and its consequences will be felt in most unpleasant ways in the long run. 

(See? Some of those statements are pretty controversial and I could use personal evidence to explain each one.) 
2.  Now select just one of those statements you just made and list at least three reasons it’s true. This will serve as your thesis, and it should end your first paragraph. Example:Idea from previous list: One should not go to Walmart without a list, while hungry, or when one does not have money. Evidence: you will forget probably forget the reason you went in the first place, you will pick up junk food you don’t need, and you will want to buy things you want and cannot afford. 


3.  What kind of hook will you use to introduce this radical idea of yours? What led you to believe this truth? Why should anyone listen to you? When did this truth first reveal itself to you?Write a few complete sentences to answer these questions. This is your introduction or hook. This paragraph starts us off; it is paragraph one and ends with the thesis. 
4.  Now, using that first piece of evidence you wrote down, elaborate on this with a short, illustrative anecdote that proves the point. This will serve as your second paragraph. Example: Idea from previous list: One should not go to Walmart without a list, while hungry, or when one does not have money. Evidence: you will forget probably forget the reason you went in the first place — There have been several times I have been to Walmart without a list, certain I would remember exactly what I wanted, yet on the way to my target item, something would catch my eye. For example, I may be going to get toothpaste and I came in at the food door. That means I have to walk by the clothes, the seasonal items, and the cards. As I am walking by the cards, I remember that I want to send a thank you card to my friend, so I stop and look at the thank you cards — only the July 4 firecracker display caught my eye, so I double back to that. Then I see sticks to make s’mores with, so I pick up a pack of Hershey Bars and some graham crackers. Then I head to the food section to pick up some marshmallows, and I head to the checkout. As I am cranking my car, I remember I went in there for toothpaste! 


5.  Repeat that process you just did. Elaborate on and explain how your second piece of evidence proves your point. This will serve as your third paragraph. 



6.  One last time: Elaborate on and explain your third point using a short, illustrative anecdote.



7. So, here we are, last paragraph. Remind me what you said. Why was it important to share this topic? What can the reader learn from possessing this information?

Introduction

Information technology, specifically electronic health records (EHR) and patient portals, are helping to empower patients to take a more active role with their health care (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016). Information technology is also supporting collaborative efforts among multiple health care stakeholders, including providers, insurers, community health agencies, and policy makers (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016). The use of decision support systems facilitates the mining of large amounts of data in population health, including data measurement and analysis. Three purposes of measurement include improvement, accountability, and research (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016). Decision support systems can also be used for predictive modeling to improve performance and predict potential outcomes (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016). As information technology and decision support systems become more sophisticated, and larger amounts of data are captured, the potential to further the IHI Triple Aim initiatives discussed previously in the course increases.

Population health continues to evolve, and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) introduced several new regulations and models. The IHI Triple Aim initiative will be an ongoing area of focus, and information technology offers new ways to engage patients in their own health. Smart phones, health and wellness apps, and smart watches will give patients new ways to monitor their behaviors. As providers educate themselves on behavioral change models and economics, they can help patients change unhealthy behaviors. Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, and Clarke (2016) predict that the next few years will likely result in an updated health risk assessment that includes additional determinants of health and performance, including stress and anxiety, and increased recognition of the importance of thriving and health. Beyond five years, we will likely see shared values among employers, employees, and the community.

Taking measurements, regulations, current and evolving technology, and models of care into account is critical to help ensure sound design of population and community health plans. Without a well-thought-out design, a well-thought-out and implementable action plan will prove difficult to impossible. So, these are critical considerations as you approach the Community Health Action Plan assessment.
