#1.   2 ) Tim Cresswell wrote:

“This is the most straightforward and common definition of place—a meaningful location.”  (p. 132)

Please explain first how Cresswell distinguishes “space” from “place,” and then give an example of how the problem statement of your portfolio can connect with the idea of place as a “meaningful location.                                  5) Brandt cites the following definition of Interprofessional Collaborative Practice from the World Health Association:

“Interprofessional collaborative practice ‘occurs when multiple health workers from different professional backgrounds provide comprehensive health services by working with patients, their families, carers (caregivers), and communities to deliver the highest quality of care across settings.’” (p. 10).

In roughly 3 sentences please adapt this concept of “interprofessional collaborative practice” to the objective of your portfolio’s problem statement, naming at least three kinds of professionals from three different fields who should be collaborating to achieve an optimal outcome.

The course readings are selected both as examples of interdisciplinary thinking and also as models for how you might think about your own portfolio.  With that in mind, please write 2-3 paragraphs about how at least 2 of the readings from the class contribute to your thinking about the problem statement for your portfolio.

QUESTION

Assignment: One Annotation completed by the end of the class (no exceptions) 

Topic: Your research paper

Follow this Sample:

Lindenfeld, David. “Jungian Archetypes and the Discourse of History.” Rethinking History 13.2 (2009): 217-234. Print.

Jungian Archetypes and the Discourse of History is a journal article, which will be crucial for this research paper. This source argues that Jung’s concepts can potentially be used to better understand human history and culture and thus help humanity uncover the meaning of being an individual. Jung’s archetypes can be used to help us understand the connection between images we see throughout history and the human psyche of a singular person. The paper argues that the discourses of his psychology have the ability to connect the dots when it comes to universal symbols that we are all bombarded with from a young age.

The article is written by David Lindenfeld, from the Department of History at Louisiana State University, it was published in Rethinking History in June of 2009. The source itself was found on the library database from Rockford University, and is considered reliable and scholarly. The voice of the author is firm and academic. It is also well researched.
