Hi, the topic for my grant proposal background is human milk sharing system. Please help  me edit the paper following the assignment instruction. Please edit the grammar and content, feel free to add in and remove content if need it. The paper needs to be within 4 pages, please cut down some of my content so it fit into 4 pages and please help me use AMA citation format. Thanks.  Instructions:  Grant Proposal Project Background Assignment The first step related to writing your grant proposal will be to research and write a background section for your project.   The background will provide the context for the program that you are proposing and set the stage for how and why you are proposing your intervention.   In this assignment – you will be describing the scope and significance of the public health nutrition/physical activity problem, its impact on the population that you are working with, and the evidence base regarding existing programs or interventions that address your declared problem.  Please note that this assignment will be helpful for designing the intervention for your grant proposal assignment, and that you may reuse any material that you write here for your final project (it will not be considered self-plagiarizing).  It should be noted too though, that this background section will probably need to be revised for your final proposal, since your thinking will probably undergo some changes that need to be reflected in the final background section of your proposal).   Also note that for some topic areas there will be extensive (and perhaps overwhelming!) literature and your job will be to narrow the topic to make it manageable for your assignment.  For other topics or population groups, the literature base is very small and you may need to widen your search and use smaller studies or extrapolate information from other similar problem areas or populations.  These issues can be noted in your report. Specifics: Grading: worth 20% of class grade 1.5 spaced report, 1- inch margins, 11 point font, Arial.   3-4 pages, excluding references, tables and figures. Your Background assignment paper will be based on the topic and population that you chose This is an INDIVIDUAL assignment and will inform your proposal project. The report should include the following elements: Public health problem to be addressed.  A general description of the problem or issue, with specific focus on the population you are addressing.  This information will probably reflect national or many state level statistics unless your population is very specific (ie. Navajo Nation or Appalachian).   This section should include the importance / significance of the problem; the scope of the problem – nationally and locally to the geographic area of your proposal (if you’ve decided that); and information relevant to the population(s) to be targeted in your proposal.  Overview of existing intervention strategies.  A summary of existing programs or approaches that are commonly used to address your topic area.  You may want to use review articles here to describe general approaches and set the context for more specific approaches that are reviewed in detail below.  Review the literature to provide an overview of the types of intervention strategies (including policies, programs, campaigns, etc) that are being used to address your problem area and your population.  Provide some indication as to the extensiveness and robustness of the research literature on this topic.  That is, are there many studies addressing your chosen issue and target population or are there very few.  Briefly describe your methods for gathering information and your criteria for including programs in the specific review descrided below.  Review of specific programs/projects/policies/campaigns.  From your literature review, choose at least 3 appropriate interventions (programs, policies, campaigns, etc)  to showcase in more detail.   The purpose of these reviews is to better understand the goals and methods of relevant interventions, to get a sense of “what it takes” to intervene on this problem area for your targeted population, and to recognize the type and level of impact that can be expected based on different interventions and research strategies.  Describe important elements of each study (population, activities, major outcomes, etc). How do they address your declared issue in terms of their types of intervention activities, population, outcome measures, results, follow-up, etc?  If it is helpful, you can use a table in the appendix to document the different studies you reviewed. Identify lessons learned and gaps or needs to be addressed .  Finally, synthesize your findings from the general overview and your specific intervention study reviews.  Describe lessons from the literature and the interventions that you reviewed that could be applied to the grant proposal project. Identify need(s) or gap(s) in existing programs or interventions to address your chosen topic area or targeted population.  References & Appendix materials. Use appropriate and consistent citations and reference formatting.  If helpful, include tables, charts, or other materials in an appendix.

Confucian ideas about family and relations between the sexes were usually imagined in the context of rural life. To what extent were families, ideas about sex roles, and actual relations between the sexes different in the cities? To what extent can family relations in that world still usefully be described as Confucian? Your readings about woman in Korea and Song China and your viewing of the Qingming shanghe tu can provide material for your argument. Additional readings from Jacques Gernet’s Daily Life in China will be posted to Quercus. The questions are meant to guide your thinking; they are not a proposed outline for your essay. The most important things in writing an essay are to develop an argument—an opinion about the topic—and to back up that argument with evidence, preferably evidence from primary sources. So, reference to the readings, particularly the readings from primary sources, is not only good practice, it it mandatory. In most cases, you should be able to write this essay using only the assigned readings; if you’d like suggestions for further reading, please come see me or your TA. Do not rely on Wikipedia or other online sources to supply anything other than the most basic of information (which is already avail- able in your textbook). Your essay should be 800-100 words long (5-7 pages, double spaced, in a normal font, with 1” margins). It is due October 27. Unexcused late papers will be penalized 5 points for each day they are late. If none of these topics appeals to you, you may write on another topic, but you must come see me so that we can talk about the feasibility of your proposed topic. If you choose to write about something else or modify the essay topic substantially, without receiving my approval (and not that of your TA), you will receive a zero (0) on the assignment. How you present your ideas matters almost as much as the quality of your ideas themselves. So, proof- read your essay, and if you’re unsure about grammar or other aspects of writing, have some one look over a draft of your essay: the writing centre at your college is an excellent place to start.

Your learning journal should demonstrate: evidence you have seen the lecture material evidence you have worked diligently on the assignment evidence you have thought about how well the assignment and test went (reflection) In addition, you need to write a short report reflecting on your overall experience of this course. Here are some questions that might help you to reflect: Was the learning journal worth the time you have spent on it? Did the learning journal help with your learning including revision as well as during tests? What lectures / discussions did you learned the most from? What was your favourite aspect of this course? Why? What lectures / discussions did you enjoy the most? What lectures / discussions did you enjoy the least? What would you like to learn further or do more in this course?

Examine a subject of importance relating to culture, politics, or society. Identify and read current scholarly sources that critically analyze your topic. Develop a clear organizational structure for the presentation of the information in your sources.

Write a response paper that consists of four sections (included, some guiding questions): 1. Descriptive: What is the performance/event/parade subject matter? What are the main points raised by the performance/event/parade? What expectations did you bring to the performance/event/parade? Who are the members of the community that the work is addressed to? What was the performance space like? Can you describe the event’s production values? The makeup of the audience (if applicable)? The atmosphere…? 2. Analytical: How successful was the performance/event/parade in conveying the material and/or subject matter to the viewer? What “worked” or engaged you? What did not…?   3. Reflective: How did the actual viewing relate to your personal experience, if any, on the subject matter? Why was the performance/event/parade successful or failed at communicating the main ideas to you? In which ways is this work relevant to you and/or the community that it is intended to…? 4. Critical: You must engage other course material: What aspects of the course work, discussions, and readings, including foundational readings and plays, can you relate to this event/experience?

3. Referring to the Kaaba in Mecca (FIG. 4.19) and the Djingareyber Mosque in Timbuktu (FIG. 4.20) describe the structures and explain the function of these architectural structures in Islam in the beginning of Islam as well as today ( make sure that you understand the difference between these two structures!) . You can find additional images on the internet (Google Images – type in the individual names and the places). Referring to the Kaaba and the Mosque as architectural structures of a religion, explain the difference between the two structures, and compare their use to the architectural structures of Western faiths, such as Christianity. Make sure that you understand and explain the beginnings of Islam as well as the role of Muhammad and the Qur’an.

Analyze the attached case study:1. Identify the most important facts surrounding the case.2. Identify the key issue or issues.3. Specify alternative courses of action.4. Evaluate each course of action.5. Recommend the best course of action.So, you may ask “what does each step involve?”1. Identify the most important facts surrounding the case. Read the case several times to become familiar with the information it contains. Pay attention to the information in any accompanying exhibits, tables, or figures. Many case scenarios, as in real life, present a great deal of detailed information. Some of these facts are more relevant than others for problem identification.2. Identify the key issue or issues.Use the facts provided by the case to identify the key issue or issues facing the company you are studying. Many cases present multiple issues or problems. Identify the most important and separate them from more trivial issues. State the major problem or challenge.3. Specify alternative courses of action. List the courses of action the higher education institution can take to solve its problem or meet the challenge it faces.4. Evaluate each course of action. Evaluate each alternative using the facts and issues you identified earlier, given the conditions and information available. Identify the costs and benefits of each alternative. Ask yourself “what would be the likely outcome of this course of action? State the risks as well as the rewards associated with each course of action.5. Recommend the best course of action. State your choice for the best course of action and provide a detailed explanation of why you made this selection. You may also want to provide an explanation of why other alternatives were not selected. Your final recommendation should flow logically from the rest of your case analysis and should clearly specify what assumptions were used to shape your conclusion
