Final Project: Writing the Grant Part 1: Needs Statement, Goals, and Objectives

I’m studying for my Writing class and need an explanation.

For this Assignment:

Review the Final Project Guidelines located in this module’s Learning Resources.

Download a copy of your selected RFP. You will use this document to guide, focus, and support the development of all parts of your Final Project. Keep in mind as you complete your Final Project assignments that you are writing in accordance with the requirements of the RFP. You must also include the use of evidence-based practice in the literature review.

Consider feedback to Discussion 1 from colleagues and your Instructor and your continued evaluation of the literature and funder guidelines; then finalize your needs statement, project goals, and objectives.

Keep in mind that the needs statement must prove that it addresses funder interests as well as establish the specific problem the proposal will address.

Keep in mind that objectives must be specific and measurable and lead directly to your goals.

In 3–4 pages, excluding APA references, address the following:

Write your Needs Statement. Substantiate the need by presenting proof of need. Keep in mind that the Needs Statement must reflect best practices in grant writing.

Next, using bullets, list your goals, then your objectives, and finally your evaluation criteria for each one.

*Goal #1

*Goal #2

*Goal #3

*Objective 1

*Objective 2

*Objective 3

*Evaluation Criteria #1,n

*Evaluation Criteria #2,n

*Evaluation Criteria #3,n

It is imperative that your needs statement, goals, objectives, and evaluation criteria align.

For example, Goal #1, Objective #1, and Evaluation Criteria #1 must align and collectively meet the needs statement.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

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

Q1 Process engineering primarily focuses on the design, operation and on-site maintenance of chemical and various material manufacturing processes. Similar to other disciplines, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has attained a certain maturity in order to analyze and optimize these processes. Besides convective, turbulent and diffusive transport of mass, momentum and energy, CFD in process engineering has to account for several other complexities such as multi-phase fluids including phase changes, the kinetics of chemical and biological conversion, unknown material and thermodynamic properties, among others. In this context:

(i) Give a brief note on the role of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in general and its application specific to process engineering systems.

(ii) Brief the major types of classical CFD techniques as well as new developments in solving complex process engineering problems.

(iii) Critically analyse the applicability, benefits and general use of CFD tools in process industry.

LP4 Assignment: Changing Habits

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

Use the Habits Worksheet (from Learning Activities #1). You have already identified how you acquired and how you maintain/reinforce this habit. You have also identified how you have tried to change this habit in the past.

The assignment will be to outline a plan detailing how to change this habit in a 2 page essay.

Using the principles of operant conditioning, create a plan of how you can use reinforcers or punishers to change your habit. Remember: reinforcers are used to increase a behavior and punishers are used to decrease a behavior. After reading the material in this chapter, which will you use? What kind of schedule of reinforcement will you use? Why? Will you use the concept of shaping as you try to change this habit? You may want to consider using the steps of behavior modification (outlined in your textbook) to help with this assignment.

Your essay should have an introduction stating the habit you will discuss and a conclusion discussing whether you think you will be successful. This should be a 2 page essay double spaced.

Film Writing: Best Practices

As this course is mainly engaged with film, you will be required to use time markers for each in-text citation: (Title of the Film Hour:Min:Sec) eg. (Batman 01:23:15). Because you will need to reference a fair amount of evidence in your analysis and writing (direct quotes, scenes from the films, articles, etc.), I highly suggest that you watch the film with subtitles on so you are able to write down the exact quote. You are expected to read and watch the entirety of whatever is assigned. If you take notes as you read, you will be much more prepared for the written assignments. Also, remember to save all of your work often and in multiple locations.

Possible Applications of Qualitative Evaluation Methods to Your RFP’s Program( sexual harassment in academia)

I’m studying for my Statistics class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Discussion (Whole Class): Possible Applications of Qualitative Evaluation Methods to Your RFP’s Program

According to Patton (2003), some grant reviewers note that they like to see a qualitative element even if the overall design of the program evaluation is quantitative; it can “personalize and humanize evaluation.” What other benefits might come from a qualitative design in program evaluation? What challenges might occur?

In this Discussion, you explore the impact that qualitative methods might have on your program evaluation.

To prepare:

  • Review the Patton reading, “Qualitative Evaluation Checklist,” from this week’s Learning Resources.
  • From the articles in the Learning Resources, select and review at least one article from each type of evaluation design (process evaluation, case study, monitoring program activities), for a total of at least three articles.
    • Pay attention to why and how these types of evaluations were conducted. How did they serve the needs and goals of program evaluation?
    • What is different about these three types of evaluations?
    • What are some special challenges for conducting each type?

By Day 3

Post your comprehensive response to each of the following:

  • Briefly restate the purpose of your program evaluation.
  • Select one of the three methods applied in the articles you have reviewed.
  • Using the general situation presented in your RFP (e.g., a school anti-bullying program), describe a situation where the method you selected would be appropriate to the questions and planned uses of the information, as well as other considerations raised by Patton (see Patton’s checklist).
  • Why would this method be appropriate in this situation? List the reasons.
  • Explain the strengths and limitations that might happen in a program evaluation that includes qualitative design elements.
  • What are some of your thoughts for how you would design this kind of evaluation for this kind of situation?
    (If your RFP already involves one of these three types, e.g., a process evaluation, select another type for this application question.)

two MRA models; one for a Mediator Model, and one for a Moderator model

I don’t know how to handle this Statistics question and need guidance.

Dr. Sally Spock and Dr. Betty Beeper are developmental psychologists that study aggressive behavior in adolescent boys between the ages of 12 and 16. They both believe that a modified version of the Frustration – Aggression Hypothesis (FAH) Dollard, Miller, Doob, Mower, and Sears (1939) should expanded to takes into consideration levels of Self-Control.That is, boys that possess higher levels of self-control would be less likely to become aggressive in comparison to boys that have low levels of Self-control, when they experience frustration.

But Spock and Beeper differ in their views regarding the role of self-control in the FAH.Dr. Spock proposed a mediator model for the FAH in which higher levels of frustration lead to lower levels of self-control, which in-turn leads to aggression.Specifically, the impact of frustration on aggression is mediated through self-control.Dr. Beeper has an alternative explanation, she believes that a moderator model best explains the relationship between frustration and aggression.That the impact of frustration on aggression is moderated or buffered by self-control.

To test their hypothesized models, Dr. Spock, and Beeper administration the Harrington Frustration scale (Harrington, 2005), and theSelf Control Scale (Tangney, Baumeister, and Boone, 2004) to a random sample of 100 male students attending Hillcrest High School in Queens (NY).In addition, for each student, the number of documented classroom aggressive behaviors occurring during the month of March, was provided by the high school’s Dean of Student’s Office

You are the quantitative psychologists for the study.Using the attached SPSS data file, test to see if the impact of Frustration on Aggression is mediated or moderated.

Using correct APA style, briefly summative the results for both the mediator model.Use my sample summaries as a model for your summaries.In a concluding statement explain which model (mediator or moderator) best explains the relationship between Frustration and aggression.If the Mediator Model is significant, then you must conduct Sobel’s test to determine if the indirect effect is significant.If the moderator model is correct, then you most conduct and interpret the findings for Simple Slopes Analysis.Use alpha = .05 for all analyses.
