I need an explanation for this Health & Medical question to help me study.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING WORD LIMIT REQUIREMENTS:

Please note that each and every assignment has its own word limit.

An article critique involves the identification, evaluation, critique, and response to an author’s study, both positive and negative. An article critique is an active process that involves careful consideration of the article’s content, rather than providing a simple summary. Critiquing research allows you to develop an understanding of the current state of knowledge, which is essential to the development of an understanding of the “big picture” of a discipline as a whole.

Research a health promotion/behavior change intervention for a population in one of the following: school, community, worksite, or health setting. Select a peer-reviewed journal article related to the health promotion/behavior change intervention you chose. The article must have been published within the last 2 years. Articles from news outlets, magazines, or blogs are not appropriate for this assignment. Critique the article by responding to the questions in the “Article Critique Worksheet.” Use complete sentences for questions 2-10. Your response to each question should be three or four sentences long.

APA style is required for the body of this assignment, as well as solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, in the link below.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

PLEASE make sure APA citation and permalink for the articles are complete and correct.

PLEASE add the links/sites below to the reference list if you use any of these readings and make sure everything is in proper APA format.

Answer these two parts?

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

First: Discussion Board: Natural Selection

In simplest terms, evolution can be defined as a change in allele frequency over time. A fact of nature is that allele frequencies for any given gene are always in a state of flux and for that reason evolution is a fact of nature. At the same time we have evolutionary theories that help us explain why allele frequencies change in the first place. For this section we will explore these evolutionary mechanisms.

The purpose of this discussion board is meant for you to share a news story that specifically deals with how evolutionary mechanisms are shaping nature around us. The article that you find will have to deal with natural selection.

Your job will be to do the following: Make sure you include all items.

  • Give a short summary of your news article in simplest terms.
  • As part of your summary include the trait that is specifically being selected for.
  • Also, make sure you mention what is acting as the selective pressure.
  • You will have to respond to two other student posts.

oFor example, a bacteria will evolve resistance to antibiotics if antibiotics are always present. In the absence of antibiotics, bacteria will have no need to evolve resistance to antibiotics. Its the excessive use of antibiotics that is selecting for bacterial genes that enhance a bacteria’s level of fitness.

Make sure you cite your work so that others can follow the news article.

Second;

Before you begin the assignment make sure you view the video “Gene Disorders Hit Amish Hard” and make sure you read this week’s PDF “Evolution and its Mechanisms”

Genetic Drift Webquest

Introduction

The Amish in the US began as a small group of Swiss-Germans that immigrated to the US in the 1700’s. Over the course of a few centuries they grew from a small founding population of 200 to a current population of more than 250,000. The most interesting thing about the Amish is that it’s a religious group that has remained culturally isolated and by extension, genetically isolated from the rest of the country. This genetic isolation from other humans has lead to an unprecedented amount of genetic disorders among the Amish.

Physicians were initially exposed to the genetic problems plaguing the Amish in the 1960’s. When the Amish began to reach out to the medial community doctors discovered that there were an unusual number of rare genetic diseases. One of these visible and rare genetic disease was called Ellis-Van Creveld syndrome. What was surprising to medical geneticists was not the presence of the rare genetic disease but rather how many Amish had the disease in the first place. Basically, the Amish in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania had more cases of Ellis-Van Creveld syndrome than all other human in the world combined! What was even more surprising was the fact that there was not just one rare genetic disease but rather dozens of rare genetic disease (In this context, rare genetic disease means that there may be less than 150 humans in the planet having the disease). Even more unfortunate is the fact that there are hundreds of other genetic disease associated with the Amish.

The big question that the Amish wanted to know was, why do they seem to have an unusual share of genetic disease when compared to the non-Amish and how do they stop those genetic disease in the first place!

What you are doing

  • Your task will be to investigate a rare genetic disorder found among the Amish and to use evolutionary theory to both, help you understand why genetic disease can become common among isolated populations and to see how evolutionary theory can assist in curbing prevalence of genetic disease.

Before you begin your task make sure you do the following things.

  • Read lecture notes on evolution. Especially the ones pertaining to Genetic drift.
  • Watch video on Amish genetic desieses.

What you need to do

Before you begin this assignment, I recommend that you clearly understand what evolution is (a change in allele frequency from one generation to the next). Especially understand the founder effect. Make sure you use the information provided and give me informed ideas that are based on your understanding of the subject matter. For this assignment you will have to answer the following items:

  • Pick and name a rare genetic disorder that is common among the Amish.Tell me how common the disease is around the world vs among the Amish? Give me numbers!
  • Explain in evolutionary terms why the genetic disorder is found in unusually high frequencies among the Amish in the first place. In other words, why did some genetic variants that cause disease become unusually common over time among the Amish? Use the founder effect.
  • Explain how the Amish might be able to curtail the incidence of your chosen genetic diseases using evolutionary knowledge. Use must explain this in evolutionary terms.
  • Lastly, remember to cite all your work!

walden-nurs 6051- Discussion week 6

Need help with my Nursing question – I’m studying for my class.

Discussion week 6

Discussion: Healthcare Information Technology Trends

Throughout history, technological advancements have appeared for one purpose before finding applications elsewhere that lead to spikes in its usage and development. The internet, for example, was originally developed to share research before becoming a staple of work and entertainment. But technology—new and repurposed—will undoubtedly continue to be a driver of healthcare information. Informaticists often stay tuned to trends to monitor what the next new technology will be or how the next new idea for applying existing technology can benefit outcomes.

In this Discussion, you will reflect on your healthcare organization’s use of technology and offer a technology trend you observe in your environment.

To Prepare:

  • Reflect on the Resources related to digital information tools and technologies.
  • Consider your healthcare organization’s use of healthcare technologies to manage and distribute information.
  • Reflect on current and potential future trends, such as use of social media and mobile applications/telehealth, Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled asset tracking, or expert systems/artificial intelligence, and how they may impact nursing practice and healthcare delivery.

Post a brief description of general healthcare technology trends, particularly related to data/information you have observed in use in your healthcare organization or nursing practice. Describe any potential challenges or risks that may be inherent in the technologies associated with these trends you described. Then, describe at least one potential benefit and one potential risk associated with data safety, legislation, and patient care for the technologies you described. Next, explain which healthcare technology trends you believe are most promising for impacting healthcare technology in nursing practice and explain why. Describe whether this promise will contribute to improvements in patient care outcomes, efficiencies, or data management. Be specific and provide examples.

Abstract:

Background: Most children experience pain in hospitals; and their parents report dissatisfaction with how well pain was managed. Engaging patients and families in the development and evaluation of pain treatment plans may improve perceptions of pain management and hospital experiences.
Objectives: The aim of this performance improvement project was to engage patients and families to address hospitalized pediatric patients’ pain using interactive patient care technology. The goal was to stimulate conversations about pain management expectations and perceptions of treatment plan effectiveness among patients, parents, and health care teams.
Methods: Plan-Do-Study-Act was used to design, develop, test, and pilot new workflows to integrate the interactive patient care technology system with the automated medication dispensing system and document actions from both systems into the electronic health record.
Setting: The pediatric surgical unit and hematology/oncology unit of a free-standing, university-affiliated, urban children’s hospital were selected to pilot this performance improvement project because of the high prevalence of pain from surgeries and hematologic and oncologic diseases, treatments, and invasive procedures.
Results: Documentation of pain assessments, nonpharmacologic interventions, and evaluation of treatment effectiveness increased. The proportion of positive family satisfaction responses for pain management significantly increased from fiscal year 2014 to fiscal year 2016 (p = .006).
Conclusion: By leveraging interactive patient care technologies, patients and families were engaged to take an active role in pain treatment plans and evaluation of treatment outcomes. Improved active communication and partnership with patients and families can effectively change organizational culture to be more sensitive to patients’ pain and patients’ and families’ hospital experiences.

Teaching psychology week 6

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

Section A

There are a number of issues that an instructor must consider related to assessing student learning. A few such issues are student learning styles, frequency of assessments, types of assessments, size of the class, and time spent grading. For example, if you have a large lecture class of 200 students, you probably would not want to have an essay exam and grade all of the exams yourself; even if each exam only took 10 minutes to grade, that would be 200 exams x 10 minutes = 2,000 minutes or 33 hours. How might you effectively assess student learning while maintaining a reasonable workload?

For this Discussion review and study this week’s Learning Resources. Then consider the following scenario: You have a class of 30 students in an introduction to psychology course. Think about what face-to-face assessment strategies you would use and why they might be effective. Finally, reflect on the time commitment involved with the type of assessment you selected.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 4 a description of the assessment strategies you might use based on the scenario provided, the frequency of assessment, and an explanation of why you think they might be effective. Then explain the time commitment involved for the type of assessment you selected. Be sure to defend your response with references to the Learning Resources.

Be sure to support your post with specific references to the Learning Resources. If you are using additional articles, be sure to provide full, APA-formatted citations for your references.

Section B

Why choose one assessment method over another? What might be the challenges of the assessment method you chose? There are a variety of factors to consider when selecting an assessment method. What might be the benefits of an essay test over a multiple-choice test? Are you evaluating a student’s ability to retain facts or apply concepts and principles? These are only a few of the possible areas of assessment you might choose when selecting an assessment method. In this week’s Assignment, you will add an example of some methods of testing to your Teaching Portfolio. Consider the strategies discussed this week as you develop your exam and prepare the correct responses.

For this Teaching Portfolio Assignment, review and study this week’s Learning Resources, including Griggs’s Psychology: A Concise Introduction textbook to help in the selection of your assignment topic. Select a new topic or use the topic you selected in Week 4 as the focus of an exam that you will design for “your” introductory psychology class.

Assignment (5–7 pages, APA format where appropriate)

Your exam must include the following:

  • An explanation of the topic you selected, referencing the chapter in the Griggs Psychology: A Concise Introduction textbook you consulted
  • Five multiple-choice questions (identify the correct answer with boldface type)
  • Three fill-in the blank prompts (include the correct response in boldface type following the question)
  • One essay question (include, in boldface type, a list of elements that you will be looking for as you grade).
  • A determination of points for each of your questions and a calculation of the percentage for each question of the total 100% available. For example, if your multiple-choice questions are worth 10 points each and there are 100 points available in the test, one multiple-choice question is worth 10/100 = 0.10, or 10% of the total 100%.
