Describe ways in which traditional adult learning theories and models support and do not support curriculum design when using the principles of backward design.

Write a 5–7 page paper in which you apply and integrate backward design into a course for adult learners.

 

For this question, write a paper in which you address the following:

Application
  • Describe ways in which traditional adult learning theories and models support and do not support curriculum design when using the principles of backward design.
  • Describe ways in which contemporary adult learning theories and models support and do not support curriculum design when using the principles of backward design.
  • Identify ways in which traditional and contemporary adult learning theories and models support backward design and ways in which they do not. Use appropriate terms related to theories and backward design as you identify at least five ways that theories can or cannot be applied to backward design.
Integration
  • Describe ways in which backward design can be used with adult learners in informal, formal, and nonformal learning environments.
    • Think about a course you teach. If you are not teaching, think about a course you have taken.
    • Describe changes you could make to bring the course in line with backward design methods. Reflect on whether those changes would be feasible for learners.
    • Support your ideas with theories and concepts presented in this course. Be certain to identify the specific theory and provide examples of how it could be used in, or how it contradicts, backward design. Discuss any difference in approaches for formal, informal, or nonformal learning environments.
Discuss Communication Strategies for a Health Care Initiative

Communication Strategies for a Health Care Initiative

Overview

A communication plan is a strategy for conveying a message to an audience. It defines the approach that will used to communicate with communities.

In this assignment, you will develop a communication plan for an organization that serves a Native American population. Use the following scenario to develop your communication plan:

Scenario

It has been acknowledged by the clinic that you work for that the Native American population in your community is underserved. There is also concern that they may not recognize how significant it is to seek care so you want to identify a way to reach and engage them so they could possibly be more mindful of their health. It’s important that you reach out to them effectively.

Your communication plan must include the following:

  • Specify the target audience.
  • Indicate the key messages.
  • Select the communication method.
  • Outline the strategy for two-way communication.
  • Establish a timeframe for implementation.

Additional Requirements

  • Length: 1 to 3 pages.
  • Formatting: Arial or Times New Roman, 12 point. Use headings/subheadings for each component.
  • Resources: Cite sources in text and include a reference page (APA format).
Discuss the various reasons system implementation fails. Compare and contrast various change models.

With the justification of an HRIS solidified, you need to show your client how you will implement the HRIS using one of the change models discussed in our text. You will also need to explain and justify cost associated with implementation via a cost benefit analysis. You want to ensure the system is properly maintained and evaluated for continuous improvement. Therefore, you will include a maintenance and evaluation plan in your proposal.

Instructions 

Write a 3 page proposal, in which you do the following:

Change Management

  1. Discuss the various reasons system implementation fails. Compare and contrast various change models. Then select a change model to use during system implementation. Provide details of how you will use the change model, and justify why you selected one model over the other models. Explain the various steps that should be included to ensure the change model is effective.

HRIS Implementation

  1. Discuss the activities that are necessary prior to the system going live, and provide a timeline for these activities. Specify which change management team member will be responsible for each activity, and explain their role.

Cost Benefit Analysis

  1. Create a cost benefit analysis matrix for the HRIS vendor you chose during Phase III: Design. Analyze the cost justification strategies that you will use to justify the cost of the HRIS, including data that identify each benefit and cost component examined, estimates of the dollar amount for each, estimates on when the organization will incur each cost and receive each benefit, and documentation justifying each decision you made in listing these benefits.

Maintenance

  1. Discuss how you will ensure the system is properly maintained and evaluated for continuous improvement.

Resources

  1. Use at least three quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as academic resources.
Probation is a popular alternative to incarceration. There are more offenders on probation than there are inmates in prison. So what makes probation so appealing?

Probation is a popular alternative to incarceration. There are more offenders on probation than there are inmates in prison. So what makes probation so appealing?

Its popularity comes from the fact that offenders avoid jail time, it helps with decreasing prison overcrowding, and it serves a good way to deter criminal behavior in the community. One of the most important requirements of probation is that offenders comply with the terms of their probation sentence.

When inmates do not comply, they are in jeopardy of having their probation revoked. This process is called a revocation hearing. Revocation hearings are important because the outcome determines what happens next for the inmate.

For this discussion, answer the following:

Imagine you are a probation officer preparing for a revocation hearing. Your offender has a good job and stays out of trouble. During the offenders last visit with you, they tested positive for marijuana. This is the first probation violation. What would your recommendation be for this offender at the revocation hearing and why?

research current public health laws in place in Saudi Arabia for the patient’s right to refuse care.

For this PowerPoint presentation, research current public health laws in place in Saudi Arabia for the patient’s right to refuse care.

Identify at least three laws in place. For each law, be sure to:

Indicate the law, its purpose and requirements enacted to meet the purpose of the law;

Analyze the ethical implications;

Describe any penalties associated with each law;

Describe instructions provided by any international organizations regarding protecting public health during mass gatherings; and

Demonstrate how this advice is reflected in the law.

Your well-written presentation should meet the following requirements:

Be 9 slides in length, not counting the title slide, introduction slide, and references slide.

Presentation notes (100-150 words) are required for each slide.  Notes must draw from and cite relevant reference materials.  Add notes to the speaker’s notes section of the PowerPoint presentation.

Provide support for your statements with in-text citations from a minimum of six scholarly articles in the speaker notes as well as the references slide.
