In the introductory lesson, you learned about three major traditions in sociological theory (Structural-Functionalism, Symbolic Interactionism, and Conflict Theory) and how they apply to the study of social problems. Identify any social problem and do the following:

In the introductory lesson, you learned about three major traditions in sociological theory (Structural-Functionalism, Symbolic Interactionism, and Conflict Theory) and how they apply to the study of social problems.

Identify any social problem and do the following:

• Analyze the problem using the criteria in the first chapter of your textbook. Explain what makes the problem you’ve identified a “social problem” as defined within sociology. Why does it qualify?
• Choose one of the major sociological theories and apply it to the problem you’ve chosen. How might a sociologist within that tradition understand the problem? How do you think that theory could help explain or provide insight into the problem?

Your submission should be approximately 700 words in length and should reflect consideration of course materials and previous lessons.

Define the following four levels of testing for software development: 1) unit testing, 2) integration testing, 3) systems testing, and acceptance testing.

Write a 4–6 page paper addressing the following:

• Define the following four levels of testing for software development: 1) unit testing, 2) integration testing, 3) systems testing, and acceptance testing.
• Explain the purpose of each testing level, and provide your reasoning for why it is important that each level of testing is performed for any software development project.
• Describe how the four testing levels are related to one another.
• Additionally, conclude your paper by addressing the following ethical dilemma providing your perspective on how to approach this decision:

There is a “first to market at all costs” culture that exists at some well-known corporations today. They would rather send out a “buggy” product if it meant being first. There have been many inferior products to rise to the top simply because they took the biggest chunk of the market share before anyone else. If you worked for a major software corporation as a software developer and were assigned a role on a project, what would you do if your manager pushed to rush a product to market without sufficient debugging and testing. What are the ethical implications of delivering a quality product versus meeting a deadline? How would you approach this decision?

Be sure to cite your sources in this paper and use correct APA format.

Here we have two European accounts of two South and Central American cultures, the Inca and the Aztecs (Mexica). Please answer the following questions.

Here we have two European accounts of two South and Central American cultures, the Inca and the Aztecs (Mexica). Please answer the following questions.

• 1. Why do you think de León dwells at great length on the Inca language in his report? To whom would this information be useful, and why?
• 2. Diego Durán gives us a sense of the importance that religious customs held for the Aztecs (aka Mexica). Durán, a priest, was also a man of faith, but of the Catholic persuasion. Think about the details he imparts in this account.
  • A. Based on his examination of the Aztec religion, where do you think Durán saw possible ways to convert the Aztecs to Catholicism – what aspects of this European religion might appeal to the Aztecs?
  • B. Relatedly, how might European intervention in Aztec religious practices fundamentally change Aztec religion and culture?

While our Western culture emphasizes lack of emotions to be a good thing. Analyze the notion of love in Fromm and its importance for the development of a democratic society. Provide examples from Fromm in proving your argument. 

I have attached the writing/paper instructions, the ready passage Escape From Freedom, and the notes on how to receive a “Grade A Paper”

PLEASE READ ESSAY PROMPT BELOW!!!!

Read chapter VII, titled Freedom and Democracy of the book Escape from Freedom (Links to an external site.), from pages 240-276. If you are reading from the pdf file, chapter 7 begins on page 202 to the end.

In this chapter, Erich Fromm argues for the integration of emotions and reason for the development of the total personality of an individual. While our Western culture emphasizes lack of emotions to be a good thing. Analyze the notion of love in Fromm and its importance for the development of a democratic society. Provide examples from Fromm in proving your argument.

Individuals and their families who experience a  medical/physical illness often find the use of psychoeducational or support groups helpful as they navigate the illness/disease process.  This assignment provides students the opportunity to visit a  support group of your choosing (DBT skills group for patients with Bipolar,depression and anxiety and other personality disorders).

Individuals and their families who experience a  medical/physical illness often find the use of psychoeducational or support groups helpful as they navigate the illness/disease process.  This assignment provides students the opportunity to visit a  support group of your choosing (DBT skills group for patients with Bipolar,depression and anxiety and other personality disorders). Your observations will serve as the basis for a paper that will critically consider clinical practice concepts pertinent to health care social work presented in this course and related to the specific diagnosis of your chosen support group. That is,  the support group serves as your clinical   “observation”   and should focus on the medical/physical diagnosis and its impact on patients and families,  and notion any particular attendees of the support group. For the purpose of this assignment, any analysis of patients’ and family members’ experiences (e.g., adjustment to diagnosis, coping, etc.) should be discussed in aggregate form and not in terms of unique individuals.

Task:

1. Preliminary Tasks:
2. Select a patient/family support group. (Outpatient open to the public is most feasible, however, Inpatient is also acceptable)
3. Contact the group facilitator for permission to attend one meeting.
4. Submit “Support Group Prospectus” to the instructor for approval
5. Attend One Meeting. (If the group facilitator expects an introduction,  then state the following: “My name is ___, and I am a graduate student at Rutgers University’s School of  Social  Work.  I  am taking a  course in health care,  and need to attend a  support group for one of my assignments. I am interested in understanding more about____ (diagnosis) and I am grateful to you and to ____ (group facilitator) for allowing me to attend.”
6. Write an analysis that explicitly integrates course concepts as instructed below.

Instructions:

• Papers will comprise no more than 4 total pages, with 3 “analysis” pages:-

Cover page (page 1)-

Analysis (pages 2-4): four pages typed, double-spaced, 12 pt font, one-inch margins. *

Content should include:

Cover Page (Page 1):

~ Your name, course, and date due.

~  Diagnosis, (outpatient)  and  purpose  of  the  group (DBT SKILLS FOR PATIENTS WITH BIPOLAR AND PERSONALITY DISORDERS) DBT skills group for patient’s at an outpatient and intensive outpatient program; Outpatient Behavioral Health at Overlook Medical Center

.~ To promote a strong culture of academic integrity, Rutgers has adopted the following honor pledge to be written and signed on examinations and major course assignments submitted for grading. Please type and sign on your cover page the following: On my honor, I have neither received nor given any unauthorized assistance on this assignment. Signed by ________. (the typed name is acceptable for electronic papers)

~ Anonymity/confidentiality footnote/acknowledgement

Analysis Pages (Pages 2-4):

~ This paper will view your chosen diagnosis and the experience of patients and families through the lens of course concepts only from our Gehlert & Browne textbook Chapter 13 “Families, Health and Illness” by John S. Rolland. Explicitly integrate (cite) course concepts throughout your analysis.

That is, avoid merely “telling the story” of what happened during the support group session, but link information observed at a group to specific Ch. 13 concepts.

*Note: Include the patient in the “Family Illness Model” (p. 319) and other chapter concepts.

Use concepts from the entire Chapter 13 in your discussion/analysis of the following:

** Psychosocial Types of Illness (p. 320)

A .Onset

1. Course
2. Outcome

d .Incapacitation

** Phases of Illness Developmental Tasks (p. 322; Table 13.1)

–Note: Explicitly connect your analysis to the three specific phases and the numeric tasks and as relevant to your group/diagnosis (i.e., identify which phase and which numbers within each phase that your case examples/analysis links to).

For the paper: It is essential that you protect the anonymity of others (e.g., use pseudonyms in place of actual names of persons and organizations and geographic locations); protect the confidentiality of others (omit any identifying or highly sensitive information that could link individuals and agencies with the content of this paper). [Modify and cut/paste this verbiage onto the cover page, which acknowledges you have done so]

Excellent papers address relevant course concepts and are well-written, well-organized, informal English, demonstrate a masterful ability to analyze the participants in terms of clinical practice concepts learned in Ch. 13, use of verbatim quotes and paraphrasing participant (including group facilitator) statements that serve as “case material” and “information” to support your analysis, and show evidence of critical thinking and client strengths. [Analytic depth: state/identify concepts, define & cite, provide an example, discuss/analyze how example illustrates the concept, integrate/cite course materials—yet, avoid stringing together quotes from the literature. I want to hear your voice, your analysis.

Because this paper draws only from Chapter 13, use only page numbers for in-text citations (only for the purpose of this paper, and to save space). However, be sure to use quotation marks when quoting the textbook verbatim (which should be kept to a minimum).

~ First-person voice is preferred.
