HA255-3: Examine evidence-based human resource strategies in the application of operation management.

Need help with my Health & Medical question – I’m studying for my class.

Unit 1 Assignment: Trends and Shortage Analysis

Before you begin your Assignment, watch a brief video introduction.

Journal/Newspaper Analysis Activity: This analysis-based activity will help students apply the concepts of critical thinking to the analysis of source material. Conduct thorough research to find three articles related to trends in the healthcare workforce and causes of workforce shortage. Create an APA formatted Annotated Bibliography for the three articles selected. The Annotated Bibliography should summarize and analyze the articles in your own words. Each article annotation should be at least 150 words and include the article reference in APA format.

Use the following example as a guide for your submission:

Reference: Brewer, R., Joly, B. M., Mason, M., Tews, D., & Thielen, L. (2007, August). Lessons learned from the multistate learning collaborative. Journal of Public Health Management and Practice, 388–394.

Annotation: This article adds to the research regarding public health collaborations by addresses two major concepts. Recent federal incentives demonstrated government support for quality initiatives, prompting coordinated advances in public health quality improvement processes (Brewer, Joly, Mason, Tews, & Thielen, 2007). Best practices in relations to public health practices and achievement of accreditation were developed through guiding principles of engagement and collaboration (Brewer et al., 2007). The case studies titled Building a QI Culture in Minnesota’s Local Public Health Departments and South Carolina’s Application of the Institute of Healthcare Improvement’s Model for QI in Public Health served as process models for future collaborative initiatives. Focus was given to engagement in public health quality improvement activities. This article examined collaborative framework, specific policies and promising future practices in the area of quality improvement in public health. The researchers prompted future research in project sustainability and the development of public health standardized practices for quality improvement.

Review the following Writing Center Writing resources provided below before you begin. Pay close attention to the Sample Citations with Annotations section provided in the Writing an Annotated Bibliography.

Annotated Bibliography

Requirements:

  • At least one article annotation includes a discussion of evidence-based human resource strategies in the application of operation management. Within this annotation students must identify faulty reasoning and assess assumptions associated with human resource strategies.
  • At least one article addresses the persistent causes of health workforce shortages at various training levels with a conclusion that formulates inferences and implications based on evidence and sound reasoning.
  • At least one article includes a discussion of the structural, behavioral, and human resource systems that impact health care organizational outcomes.

The Payment Time Case

I’m studying and need help with a Statistics question to help me learn.

Develop a 700-word report including the following calculations and using the information to determine whether the new billing system has reduced the mean bill payment time:

  • Assuming the standard deviation of the payment times for all payments is 4.2 days, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate to determine whether the new billing system was effective. State the interpretation of 95% confidence interval and state whether or not the billing system was effective.
  • Using the 95% confidence interval, can we be 95% confident that µ ? 19.5 days?
  • Using the 99% confidence interval, can we be 99% confident that µ ? 19.5 days?
  • If the population mean payment time is 19.5 days, what is the probability of observing a sample mean payment time of 65 invoices less than or equal to 18.1077 days?

MORALITY PLAY project

I’m trying to learn for my Art & Design class and I’m stuck. Can you help?

GROUP PROJECT: Apply the knowledge you’ve gained about Vernacular Dramas of the Middle Ages, from the assigned reading, the power point, videos, and script of Everyman, and invent a contemporary MORALITY PLAY for 2020.

DISCUSSION: In your group, have a discussion about moral issues of today.

DISCUSSION: Choose one present day morality issue or one of the 7 deadly sins to base the plot of your morality play on.

DISCUSSION: Invent a story that will teach a lesson about this issue.

TURN IN ONE DOCUMENT FOR YOUR GROUP AND INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:

  1. List of Group Members
  2. Title of your Morality Play: give your Morality Play an appropriate title.
  3. Write a synopsis of the Plot. Describe what happens in the play – in a brief, clear description. You DO NOT need to write an entire script.
  4. The play must teach a moral lesson through the action of the play. What is the moral lesson of your contemporary Morality Play?
  5. List the Names of Characters: Remember, in Morality Plays the Character’s names describe their role in telling the moral lesson. For examples, refer to the character’s names in Everyman.
  6. Describe the Costumes of the Characters. Remember, the Costumes in Morality Plays also describe the Character’s traits, positive and negative. For example if the Character’s name is Moneybags, his suit might be gold.
  7. Identify a television program or movie that could be considered a Morality Play. Defend your ideas by explaining what similarities it shares with a morality play.

  1. Preview both documents, and write a few sentences on what you think you will learn from them. Why do you think this? What did you see that would indicate this?
  2. Ask a minimum of 2 questions on each of these texts
  3. Summarize a minimum of 3 paragraphs or sections on each text.
  4. React to a minimum of 4 things in each text. Be sure to explain your reaction or thought. This could be something you thought was cool, interesting, confusing, important, etc.

one page paper on the reading

I need support with this Writing question so I can learn better.

First, read Keyes, “Stop Asking Me About My Major” and Gaposchkin, “If Students Are Smart, They’ll Major in What They Love” (links on your syllabus) and reflect, just in your notes, on how these resonate with you and the way in which you think about your decision to major in Interdisciplinary Liberal Studies. Come to class ready to participate in a lively discussion about this.

Then, read the rest of the assigned pieces and complete a one-pager to turn in on Thursday. (Note: Sometimes I will give you specific prompts for these one-pagers, often I will just invite you to use these to explore your own critical reflections on our assigned reading. Here is just a bit of direction to get us started:)

As you approach this first one-page paper (subsequent to reading the SU Mission statement and Leman’s “The Case for a New Core,” in addition to the first two essays) I would like you to consider how or if your SU education (the UCOR, your electives, and your major courses) seems reflective of the Mission and/or where it seems discontinuous with the Mission. In order to do this, think about how you have navigated the UCOR and other courses you have taken and how this has shaped your own educational trajectory at Seattle U.

How would you propose redesigning the UCOR (in relation to the rest of your college curriculum, including your major) to meet your own educational or vocational aspirations? In other words, what should a liberal arts education do? Venture a response to this first question, and then brainstorm about the following question: How could you imagine a curriculum to achieve these objectives?

(Instructions on how to write it)

A ONE PAGE PAPER is due in hard copy near the beginning of class some days. The quality and timeliness of One-Pagers taken as a whole can add or subtract from the final score for the course, beyond the 20% for participation listed in the syllabus.

  • Respond reflectively to the reading. Explicitly incorporate the text into your response, but do not just summarize the text.
  • Write at least 200-250 words. This is equal to about 2/3 of a page of 12 pt. Times New Roman font type with one inch margins, double-spaced. Please do not hand-write these one pagers. Emailed one-pagers are rarely allowed.
  • A record of solid, consistently on-time one-pagers significantly enhances the class participation portion of the grade, and definitely helps determine the final grade in close cases. Missing one-pagers negatively affects course grade beyond 10%.

What to avoid:

  • Avoid summarizing and do not try to condense the reading. Instead, comment on and develop how a certain aspect of the reading relates to your ideas or your development as a student. Say something you think is important and explicitly develop your position or question in relation to the reading.Remember to aim for complexity of reflection, rather than stating unquestioned assumptions or opinions.
  • Avoid writing about the first pages of a reading. It is not impressive since it implies you probably did not read the whole assignment.
  • Move beyond “I really liked it” or “I really didn’t like it” or “I agree” or “I disagree.” What exactly did you like or agree with and why? Especially, how does the reading relate to your ideas or to who you are as a student at SU? Give reasons and examples for your beliefs.
  • Avoid obsessing. Although this is not a “journal,” it is meant to be experimental writing. You are experimenting with various ideas, seeing whether they fit in or not with your views and goals.

Lateness: A late one pager most often means that you were not prepared for class, since one-pagers are integral to class preparation. One pagers handed in on time in class or handed in before the start of class time (when you anticipate missing a class) will receive normal credit if credit-worthy.

If you unexpectedly miss a class for some good reason, submit a late one paers the next class.

Late one pagers should be completed and handed in for late credit. Do not email late one pagers. This opportunity of late credit may be suspended for repeat offenders. The late one pager is not ranked as highly as one that is on time. But it is scandalous to neglect to complete the assignment at all; better late than never.

Since this assignment is so frequent, and judging the worthiness of excuses would be too time consuming for this type of assignment, lateness is not “excused.”A one-pager is either on time or late.UCOR is the university classes that you have to take no matter what)
