This assignment requires you to examine ethics in your new career as a criminal justice professional. You have just started out as a criminal justice professional. You have a partner who has spent 15 years in this profession. One day while you are out with your partner, you see that he is talking to a member of the local mob. Your partner accepts a large yellow envelope and tucks it quickly into his pocket. You know that the man has a criminal record and has a history of extorting money out of the local businesses, but has never been charged with it due to lack of evidence. You ask your partner about the mobster and he tells you not to worry about it. You wonder if you should report the incident to the chief or not.
Discuss the virtues that affected your judgment. Why is it important to have virtues? Define virtue and list five examples of good virtues. How do these virtues develop? Can training play in developing these virtues?
Discuss the importance of ethics. What choices did you have while making the decision of telling the chief about the incident with your partner? Was the choice that you exercised based on an internalized or externalized behavior and value? Which virtues supported not reporting your partner?
You continue to question your partner about the “envelope.” Your partner finally responds and says it has been a long established tradition for local bookies to donate to the Police Athletic League and in return the cops look the other way when it comes to minor things like betting on sports.
How would you react if guided by:
- Ethical formalism
- Egoism
- Utilitarianism
- Ethics of care
Which choice would you personally make, and why?

How will you account for the existence of ADHD and Executive Functioning Disorder in the classroom for the regular activities that might occur?
Consider your classroom (choose a grade level and content area). How will you account for the existence of ADHD and Executive Functioning Disorder in the classroom for the regular activities that might occur? How can you build your classroom and instruction to be more supportive of all students, diagnosed or otherwise? Select three activities that will be part of your regular classroom activities and carefully outline how you will ensure you are providing support for your students with these needs.
Hint: One excellent support for students who struggle is the existence of instructional routines. See this short clip by master teacher, professor, author, and international speaker Dr. Anita Archer (she has many clips available on a variety of topics, and every one of them is worth watching!).
describe a time when you were involved in a change from paper to electronic processes. What were some of the challenges you experienced?
One of the challenges in healthcare is the transition from paper to electronic information. The presentation described some of the challenges of this transition, but there are more. There are still some smaller medical offices that have not made the leap to the electronic world and seem to be managing well with paper. Your role in healthcare informatics may be to coordinate or manage this transition or deal with an issue of storage, retrieval, retention or retrieval.
In your post, describe a time when you were involved in a change from paper to electronic processes. What were some of the challenges you experienced? Were there any parts of the change you would have done differently? Can any of your improvements be applied to a hospital that is starting an EHR?

how have these more recent digital technologies further changed our consciousness?
Some guiding questions for you to consider as you are reading:
–Ong’s theories about rhetoric, consciousness, and culture focused on the evolution from primarily oral communication to written communication. Obviously, the media landscape has evolved significantly since then. But more recent technologies like YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Tik Tok, show that the evolution of media has accelerated even since the rise of earlier digital technologies like email, texting, and instant messaging. So, how have these more recent digital technologies further changed our consciousness?
–McLuhan’s idea that “the medium is the message” also emerged long before social media. If different media (newspaper, television, magazine) describing a news event can change the meaning we receive about the event, how might (for instance) getting a link to a news story from a Facebook friend affect how we receive the message?
–Recalling last week’s discussion: Is it possible today to have a “universal audience” in the sense described by Chaim Perelman (from Chapter 4 of the textbook)? Was it ever possible, in practice, to have a universal audience?
Describe the sampling method and tell what its characteristics are.
“According to child development specialists, one of the most accurate ways to learn about children is to observe them in daily activities” (Wortham, 2012, p. 117). Among the many types of observation discussed in Chapter 5, anecdotal records, running records, time sampling, and event sampling are widely used in schools and centers across the nation. For this discussion, you will begin to develop a plan for the observation types you will use in your written assignment this week, which involves the observation of an actual child. Here is what you are asked to do:
1. Choose either anecdotal or running records. Describe the record type and explain its characteristics. Discuss whether you will be observing social/emotional development, physical development, cognitive development, or language development (choose one), and what the purposes are for assessing that domain.
2. Next, choose either time sampling or event sampling. Describe the sampling method and tell what its characteristics are. Discuss whether you will be observing social/emotional development, physical development, cognitive development or language development (choose one that is a different domain from above) and what the purposes are for assessing that domain.
Attached is an example of the anecdotal and running record as well as the time and event sampling.
Here is a video to assist you with this discussion this, all about the observation process:

Consider what history would be necessary to collect from this patient.
Assignment: Assessing, Diagnosing, and Treating Adults with Mood Disorders
It is important for the PMHNP to have a comprehensive understanding of mood disorders in order to assess and accurately formulate a diagnosis and treatment plan for patients presenting with these disorders. Mood disorders may be diagnosed when a patient’s emotional state meets the diagnostic criteria for severity, functional impact, and length of time. Those with a mood disorder may find that their emotions interfere with work, relationships, or other parts of their lives that impact daily functioning. Mood disorders may also lead to substance abuse or suicidal thoughts or behaviors, and although they are not likely to go away on their own, they can be managed with an effective treatment plan and understanding of how to manage symptoms.
In this Assignment you will assess, diagnose, and devise a treatment plan for a patient in a case study who is presenting with a mood disorder.
To Prepare
· Review the Focused SOAP Note template, which you will use to complete this Assignment. There is also a Focused SOAP Note Exemplar provided as a guide for Assignment expectations.
· Review the video, Case Study: Petunia Park. You will use this case as the basis of this Assignment. In this video, a Walden faculty member is assessing a mock patient. The patient will be represented onscreen as an avatar.
· Consider what history would be necessary to collect from this patient.
· Consider what interview questions you would need to ask this patient.
