MACHINE LEARNING
Course Project
Group Project
Group size: 1-2 students. (1 means working individually.)
I. Project Description
The goal of the project is to identify and address a domain-specific problem
on data analysis by applying machine learning algorithms or models. The
topics can be on prediction, regression, or classification.
In this project, you will need to locate a specific dataset, define the problem(s)
that you want to study, and implement at least one machine-learning algorithm
to solve the problem. Data preprocessing should be conducted if needed. You
are recommended to use Python and apply Scikit learn library. Repeating an
analysis that was performed in another class is not allowed.
The Evaluation will be based on completeness and quality of problem
definition, methodology introduction, implementation and presentation (project
report writing).
II. Submission
Project Report and Source Codes should be submitted by the due date.
The source codes should be in a separate file or zipped folder. Only one
group member should submit on behalf of the whole group. The group
members will get the same grade unless the work distribution is extremely
unbalanced.
The project report should include but not limited to the following components.
• Title and author(s). The title should capture your project question and
main methodology.
2
• Abstract. Briefly summarize the questions that the project works
on, the methods and the results.

Discuss new or revised strategies to maintain or improve your desired quality of life throughout the nursing program.

Balancing School and Life – My Quality of Life Self-Care Plan. The purpose of developing this Plan is to set a framework and a plan to maintain wellness and to stay motivated and engaged throughout your Program. Doing this will help you achieve success during your coursework and as a professional nurse.

The goal of the Project is to help you become self-aware and reflective as a means of identifying personal self-care strategies that will increase your energy and help you manage your stress. The Project will give you a chance to learn how this is accomplished as you will be doing similar work with clients during the Program and as a professional nurse to assist them in the same way.

Continue to use the quality of life self-assessment tool you selected to reassess and identify strategies you can use throughout your nursing program to maintain a desired quality of life.

In a 2–3-page paper (not including the title page or reference page), include the following information:

  • Compare your initial scores at the beginning of the course to your scores now at the end of the course.
  • Describe how the scores have improved, declined or remained the same including an explanation for any variation in scores.
  • Discuss new or revised strategies to maintain or improve your desired quality of life throughout the nursing program.
Reflect on the concept of capital, your investment in your own education, and the benefits you anticipate in your career and in the lives of the children you reach.

For this Discussion, you will evaluate programs within your specialization to determine target areas of improvement for educational and social change in Grand City.

To prepare:
• Review all Learning Resources for this module. Think about the meaning of educational change, the impact of data collection on change initiatives, and the impact of positive social and educational change on all individuals in a community.
• Review the Grand City data and media for this module as well as your analysis of the data from the Module 1 Discussion 1. Consider what programs are most critical in supporting Grand City’s children and students, including both those in early childhood programs and K–12 schools. Think about how data supports the need for change initiatives. How might a successful change in those programs impact the community as a whole?
• Hargreaves and Fullan (2013) note the difference between business capital and professional capital. Reflect on the concept of capital, your investment in your own education, and the benefits you anticipate in your career and in the lives of the children you reach.
• Review Walden University’s mission and vision for social change. Imagine you are on the Grand City task force representing your specialization, and consider the areas needing improvement or change. How might you propose the task force address those areas? What impact might such changes have on social change in the Grand City community?
Have there been any unexpected improvements you developed to help everyone cope?

This is an assignment from your experiences and your thoughts on the covid pandemic that has affected all of us for over two years.  Please consider a variety of issues that have affected your whole family.  Please discuss issues that have affected your family and individual members of your family, you, or your extended family and friends.

Learning resources:  I did not post any outside references, for I am interested in how each of us has managed during this time. This is out of your head and heart! No reference list is needed.

Topics: All topics that have mattered to you and your family may be brought up here.

Please think of the most serious effects of covid and illness, employment, income changes, the social isolation, and quality of individual mental health and family life, children’s access to education and to play with friends, and other related topics.

Please also bring up anything you and your family or you and friends or you and your children have done to improve your life during the pandemic.  Have there been any unexpected improvements you developed to help everyone cope?

Length: One to two pages, single spaced (because it is to be posted as a discussion and also posted as an Assignment). Do not worry about the length; please write about the issues most important to you.

Explain which factors sociological research suggest will impact their earning potential

The US Department of Labor Women’s Bureau shows current trends in women’s employment. Despite research that shows a persistent wage gap for women and people of color even when studies compare women and men with the same background and qualifications (that is, they are not comparing men who have always worked full time with women of the same age who may have taken time off to raise children), there is a popular conception that most of the wage gap can be explained through personal choices. While the wage gap shrinks when adjustments are made for differences in choices, it does not disappear.

You can read more about this distinction here: Racial, gender wage gaps persist in U.S. despite some progress and Why Women Must Ask (The Right Way): Negotiation Advice From Stanford’s Margaret A. Neale.

The question raised by Sociology is, when is a choice truly a choice, and when is it not? What are all of the elements that lead to a wage gap, and which of them are entirely within an individual’s control?

To explore this question as it pertains to gender and work, design a fictional family and trace the working lives of its adult members.

  1. Your family should have two adults of working age, though they do not have to live in the same household, may be different genders or the same gender, and do not necessarily have to be spouses or ex-spouses (you could have a multi-generational household, for example). You can decide if your household includes children or other relatives. The only hard and fast rule is that this household needs two adults of working age.
  2. Explain which factors sociological research suggest will impact their earning potential (use this week’s reading for information). Think intersectionally as well as in terms of gender alone.
  3. Describe the choices each has made (you are making this part up) that has further impacted earning and career success (positively or negatively). Are those choices typical or atypical for the gender of each adult?
  4. What has the actual impact of those choices been on the trajectory of their working lives and earning potential (you will be making this part up, obviously)?
  5. What can Sociology tell us about the factors that led them to the decisions they made? What are some of the societal forces that may have guided those decisions? Why is it hard to resist those forces? What would we need to make sure that everyone has the chance to choose the shape of her or his working life freely?

You could write a book on these fictional characters, but there is no need! Instead, focus on a few elements that seem to you to be most important or interesting in explaining how their working lives come to have the shape they do.
