THE SCENARIO: You are a reporter for a local newspaper. You come back to the office one day to find several staff members discussing this story: Two teenagers have been killed in an automobile accident. The driver, who survived, had been drinking prior to the accident. The two girls in the back seat, both of whom were killed, were nude at the time of the accident. 2 Your colleague, another reporter, is pushing for all the known facts to be reported. But the editor argues that the fact of the girls’ nudity should not be revealed; he claims that such information will just be an additional insult to their parents, who already are suffering from the girls’ deaths.

Ask: Do you have a right to publish: The fact that the driver was drinking? The fact that the girls were nude at the time of the accident?

Would it be responsible to publish these facts in reporting the accident? Brainstorm ALONE about things to consider in deciding whether to report this information:

Do we have all the facts? Has anyone interviewed the survivor?

Does the newspaper have a policy on printing names of sexual-assault victims?

Will publishing the information help anyone else?

I ATTACHED MY PREVIOUS ASSIGNMENT SO YOU CAN SEE THE SCHOOL DISTRCIT: SHELBY COUNTY SCHOOLS IN TENNESSEE

For this benchmark, you will be creating a Literacy Action Plan for the grade level identified in your Field Experience “Presenting the Grade Level Analysis Digital Graphic Design”. In your Literacy Action Plan, identify three literacy priorities, based on your grade level analysis, that are in specific need of improvement. The Literacy Action Plan should be comprehensive and cover the current school year as well as address each of the following:

1. Action steps for achieving the goals
2. Responsibilities (for each stakeholder)
3. Action steps timeline
4. Resources
5. Potential barriers
6. Communication plan (between instructor and parents, to include initial, follow-up, and progress reporting)
7. Progress monitoring /Evidence of success
8. Evaluation tools
9. Evaluation timeline

Utilize a district plan template or utilize the Massachusetts District Literacy Action Plan template to complete your Literacy Action Plan. In addition research 3-5 scholarly articles to support your plan.

In addition, submit a 750-1,000-word rationale in support of your Literacy Action Plan. Within your rationale, demonstrate your ability to analyze the following:

1. Appropriate assessments
2. Interpret assessment data
3. Use the assessment data to evaluate curriculum and instruction specific to your chosen grade level.

Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

You are caring for a 37-year-old female who is pregnant with her second child. The first pregnancy was traumatic as the woman experienced a pelvic fracture during delivery causing excruciating pain. The anxiety from this memory plagues her into this pregnancy. She has been managed on an anti-depressant/anti-anxiety. Her husband is a pharmacist and has attended most visits with the psychiatric-mental health NP for counseling and psychopharmaceutical drug management.

• What would be your initial approach to assessment with this woman/family?
• Would you prescribe an antidepressant? If so, why and which one? Explain the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, contraindications, pregnancy related issues, legal/ethical considerations, testing (if applicable), side effects and relationship to trimester.
• What would be your overall plan of care? (Be succinct.) Consider supervision/collaboration/type of psychotherapy or complementary modality you might use.

Criteria for this paper:

• Answer these questions succinctly but completely, integrating resources to provide rationale for all decisions.
• Use APA formatting for all components of your paper.
• You may use narrative, bullets, or a table format for various sections of this discussion assignment.
• Your paper should be approximately two to three pages long (including a table if you create a table).
• Your paper length should not include the reference page.
• Use at least one nursing journal reference from CINAHL (available through the Regis library) to support your rationale.

If you are a teacher or a parent of a child who has attended school or daycare, you have probably experienced separation anxiety of a child.

One thing to note is that separation anxiety is normal and a positive sigh of a healthy attachment. It is often more difficult for the parent to cope with than the teacher!

There are situations when a child has severe anxiety and in some cases the child may need more time to mature before attending a group care setting.

1. What does it mean when a parent seems to be supporting the child’s difficulty in separating rather than trying to encourage his/her successful separation?

1. What can teachers do to help support parents when their child is having a difficult time adjusting to be separated from the parent?

1. WHat is your understanding or a collectivist family? What are the primary differences between a collectivist family and one who the text describes as an individualistic family?

1. What has your personal experience been with helping your own child or children in your classroom separate successfully? If you have no experience with separation anxiety, ask someone you know what experiences they might have to share.

In her 2019 book, The Heartland: An American History, University of Illinois Professor of History Kristin Hoganson discusses the myth of “the heartland” as it is used as a symbolic tool. After reading the introduction to her book, discuss the following for Post #2:

• • Based on your own understanding and what you have read so far, why is this “heartland” myth so powerful for Americans? What anxieties does it ease (as a concept)? Or, what does it reinforce (as a concept)?
  • What are some examples of the ways this heartland myth gets re-emphasized or re-circulated in our present time? Think in terms of texts that create “culture:” films, TV shows, politics, ads, memes, music, etc. With this in mind, what would you say is your own conception of “the heartland”?

Be sure to fully explain your connections. Also, it is useful to bring in at least one key quote from the text. Don’t forget to cite the page number(s).
