Hello i need a Good and Positive Comment related with this argument .A paragraph  with no more  100 words.

Stephanie Veach 

 

  In regards to the Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) provision, where they are proven providers of high quality and cost effective primary care (Health Care, 2010). This provision has and will continue to impact my current practice of nursing by having APRN available within the hospital or a phone call away to collaborate and assist with getting the necessary treatments needed for a patient. In surgery, our main cardiovascular surgeon, has a APRN that rounds on all his patients, initially sees consults in the hospital that are called into him, and then relays the status of the patient to him, and if surgery is needed, she makes sure the appropriate orders are placed, which in turn helps us in surgery immensely. She is available if we have questions regarding one of the patients or we see a particular test isn’t done, she can check on it or verify it. Having a dedicated and capable APRN in this case, allows for the surgeon to be able to devote more of his time with surgery and other duties necessary and relieves some of the burden from him, which in the long run, benefits the patient. 

The second provision outlined by the ANA, which will impact my current practice, is the nurse education, practice, and retention provision. The section 5309, added 2 new grant programs specifically aimed at nurse retention. The first grant program would award grants to accredited nursing schools or health facilities to promote career advancement among nurses (Health Care, 2010). And the second grant program would award nursing schools and health facilities for exhibiting enhanced collaboration and communication among nurses and other health care professionals (Health Care, 2010). I think this provision would impact my nursing practice by first encouraging career advancement among nurses provides nurses with a goal or a commitment and gives them purpose. I think up until now in my practice I felt that I really had no purpose, with incentives to promote nurses and make them a vital part of the health care team provides worth to the health facility’s staff, therefore they strive to be the best they can be. I think this also contributes to nurse retention, as well, which in the long run helps with staffing and also helps the hospital to save money. And secondly, by encouraging enhanced collaboration and communication among nurses and other health care professions helps to provide quality continuum of care to patients and supports a team-approach to patient care, and a valued member of the health profession.

Random Selection

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they’re okay, then it’s you.”     Rita Mae Brown

Greetings!

Read this assignment carefully. It’s easy to miss some of the questions.

For example, c. asks what the probability of another student whose file we pull has mental health issues. Then it asks for the probability that the student has learning/school issues OR relationship issues.  Your lecture notes explain very clearly how to calculate the probability of one event OR another occurring (p(A) or p(B)). The question does not ask you to give the probability of learning/school issues and then give the probability of relationship issues. Lastly it asks for the probability that the student fits in any category except other? Do not give the probability of the file belonging to the ‘other’ category.

It is helpful to include the calculations (and/or formula) for your answers.

Finally, make sure you state why you think convenience sampling will or will not produce the same results as random sampling.

 Remember that grammar is important. Take some time because you are still getting used to the terminology and carelessness leads to inaccuracy.

 

 

This is  helpful in understanding how random and convenience sampling differ.

Difference between Simple Random Sampling and Convenience Sampling

http://bp2.blogger.com/_DoQtwF_2FTo/RhdAoHAdabI/AAAAAAAAADI/pYzjWpK9Y90/s320/stratifiedSample.gif

Simple random sampling

A sampling procedure that assures that each element in the population has an equal chance of being selected is referred to as simple random sampling .

The selection bias is not possible in simple random selection.

In simple random selection the selection of units from the population does not based on easy availability it depends upon random selection.

The result can be generalize as the selection is done randomly.

http://www.nedarc.org/nedarc/collectingData/participantSelection/probabilitySampling/images/stratifiedSample.gif

Eg: An example may make this easier to understand. Imagine you want to carry out a survey of 100 voters in a small town with a population of 1,000 eligible voters. For example, we could write the names of all voters on a piece of paper, put all pieces of paper into a box and draw 100 tickets at random. You shake the box, draw a piece of paper and set it aside, shake again, draw another, set it aside, etc. until we had 100 slips of paper. These 100 form our sample. And this sample would be drawn through a simple random sampling procedure – at each draw, every name in the box had the same probability of being chosen.

Convenience Sampling

A convenience sample chooses the individuals that are easiest to reach or sampling that is done easy.

Convenience sampling does not represent the entire population so it is considered bias.

In convenience sampling, the selection of units from the population is based on easy availability and/or accessibility.

The results can not be generalize , the results are not applicable for all ,We can’t draw any meaningful conclusion from results we obtain.

http://instruct.uwo.ca/fim-lis/504/504sam.gif

Eg : If you want to choose 5 people from a class of 50. You could choose : First 5 students who. raise their hand. First 5 students in the first row. 5 tallest students .

A convenience sample is a sample where the students are selected, at the convenience of the researcher

udl guidlines

This discussion is an opportunity to further demonstrate your ability to apply the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to the design of instruction and assessment. As you learned last week from reading Edyburn (2013) Chapter 5 and viewing the CAST (2010) video UDL at a glance, the three main principles supporting UDL are to Provide Multiple Means of (a) Representation (the “what of learning), (b) Action and Expression (the “how” of learning), and (c) Engagement (the “why” of learning). For this discussion you will review technology checkpoints as they relate to the three main principles of UDL. IT may be helpful to review the Week Three Instructor Guidance page where UDL is explored in the intellectual elaboration and to take time now to review your feedback from the Week Three assessments as well. Then, to prepare for this discussion, read the Week Four Instructor Guidance and then visit the UDL guidelines – version 2.0: Examples and resources (2014) website. At the website, select the principle you have been assigned based on your last name using the list below. You will then choose one checkpoint from the principle you have been assigned to review.

    • If your last name begins with A-J: Choose one checkpoint from any of the three guidelines from Principle 1. Provide Multiple Means of Representation. 

 

    • If your last name begins with K-O: Choose one Checkpoint from any of the three guidelines from Principle 2 Provide Multiple Means of Action and Expression. 

 

  • If your last name begins with P-Z: Choose one checkpoint from any of the three guidelines from Principle 3 Provide Multiple Means of Engagement

Within the checkpoint there are several examples and/or resources that support the principle and checkpoint. Next, choose one example/resource that interests you to explore, interact with, and evaluate. You may also choose to consider examples geared toward the grade level you are currently teaching, have experience in, or intend to teach. 


Initial Post: 
Create a Jing tutorial or other multimedia-based presentation with software such as Present.me to showcase the specific UDL checkpoint example selected. Include the link to your Jing tutorial or presentation featuring the example/resource selected as well as written responses to the discussion points below. Your written response needs to be between one and two paragraphs in length. One of the ways to make your discussion engaging and effective is by including audio of your voice alongside a presentation of the information you have investigated. You can talk through these points during your tutorial. Keep in mind, the maximum length of a Jing video is five minutes so it will help to create a presentation in PowerPoint first that is five slides long with each slide covering one of the five points below. If for some reason you are unable to complete this discussion using the recommended technology, please contact your instructor for an alternative way to respond. 

    1. State the principle and checkpoint (number and description) analyzed.

 

    1. Describe the specific example or resource selected (title given), the age group intended for, and the content area it covers.

 

    1. Describe the example/resource explored explaining how it works 

 

    1. Address each of the “Key Considerations” for the checkpoint.

 

  1. Share an idea you have for how this resource might be used effectively during instruction or assessment opportunities in your current classroom or your future practice.

Conflicting Viewpoints Essay

When looking for information about a particular issue, how often do you try to resist biases toward your own point of view? This assignment asks you to engage in this aspect of critical thinking by playing the “Believing Game.” The Believing Game is about making the effort to “believe” – or at least consider – the reasons for an opposing view on an issue.

The assignment is divided into two (2) parts.
In Part I of the assignment (due Week 2), you will first read a book excerpt about critical thinking processes: “The Believing Game and How to Make Conflicting Opinions More Fruitful” at http://www.procon.org/sourcefiles/believinggame.pdf. Next, you will review the Procon.org Website in order to gather information. Then, you will engage in prewriting to examine your thoughts.
Note: In Part II of the assignment (due Week 4), you will write an essay geared towards synthesizing your ideas.

Part I – Prewriting: Follow the instructions below for this prewriting activity.  Use complete sentences and adhere to standard rules of English grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and spelling.
1. Select one (1) of the approved topics from the www.procon.org Website and state your position on the issue.
2. From the Procon.org Website, identify three (3) premises (reasons) listed under either the Pro or Con section – whichever section opposes your position.
3.For each of the three (3) premises (reasons) that oppose your position on the issue, answer these “believing” questions suggested by Elbow:

  1. What’s interesting or helpful about this view?
  2. What would I notice if I believed this view?
  3. In what sense or under what conditions might this idea be true?”

The paper should follow guidelines for clear and organized writing:

  • Include an introductory paragraph and concluding paragraph.
  • Address main ideas in body paragraphs with a topic sentence and supporting sentences.
  • Adhere to standard rules of English grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and spelling.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA Style format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Identify the informal fallacies, assumptions, and biases involved in manipulative appeals and abuses of language.
  • Create written work utilizing the concepts of critical thinking.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in critical thinking skills and informal logic.
