Hello all, some of you are having issues locating the following video: Death of one’s own… I have added it here for you to complete assignment four.  YouTube  

DEP3504 death Jim P1

This weeks worksheet will help you build all of the necessary parts for your Final Paper. It is recommended that you review the Learning Activity assignments and review the Final Paper prompt before beginning this assignment. This week, you will examine and evaluate the ethics of Euthanasia and examine different forms of community support systems for those who are dying and their families, by viewing the following videos: The Suicide Tourist (Links to an external site.) (2010) and A Death of One’s Own (Links to an external site.) (2000).

  • Based on the discussions in the textbook, evaluate what is considered to be an appropriate death?

Hospice

  • Describe how a patients death represents a failure to a physician, how can medical schools assist in creating an attitude of acceptance of death as the final stage of growth?

  • Discuss what is meant by patient-centered care? 
  • Discuss palliative care, and how is it related to hospice care? How does it differ from the treatment given by most acute care hospitals?

You will complete several steps for this assignment.

Step 1: You will become familiar with an assessment tool (AChecker) to examine Web accessibility for a couple Web sites. This is a freely available tool that you can learn about by reviewing the tutorial found here.

Step 2: Select two Web sites that are somewhat similar in functionality. Find one that you think is good and one that you think is bad. Whether or not the Web site is good or bad is based upon your own personal perspective.

Step 3: Examine the Web sites regarding your suggestions as to how they might be improved.

Step 4: Create a PowerPoint presentation that includes 1012 slides with voice recording that presents your recommended improvements. Discuss the good and bad factors of each Web site. Discuss how a sample task is supported on each of the Web sites. Describe how the Web site can be redesigned or revised to achieve better results.

The requirements for the presentation are as follows:

  • Title slide
  • Introduction to the 2 Web sites
  • Comparison of the 2 Web sites
  • A summary of AChecker’s findings for each site
  • Explanation of how to improve the sample task
  • Listing of recommended improvements
  • Information regarding anticipated localization and globalization factors
  • Summary and conclusions
  • At least 35 references

Be sure to consider the following:

  • Patterns
  • Wizards
  • Interactivity
  • Animation
  • Transitions

Screenshots may be used in your slides to support your explanations.

Remember, your presentation must include both the slides and the audio to present the content.

Include a title slide and APA format on citations used in the presentation with a closing references slide. Use proper design regarding elements (fonts, color, images, etc.) on your slides.

Use the Record Slide Show option to present the information on each slide and record your verbal explanations for each item. Please refer to the following for more detailed instructions on recording your voice on a PowerPoint slide:

Use AChecker, research literature, and your textbook to support your redesign or revision recommendations.

 Mobile devices, the Internet, and other technologies have made a large impact on the daily lives of people all over the world.

Consider how one particular technology item has affected society from a humancomputer interaction (HCI) perspective, and answer the following questions:

  • Discuss the technology’s impact on social, ethical, and legal issues.
  • How do you think the role of this technology has changed HCI since its inception?
  • How do you see the future of this technology further changing HCI?

Program Description:

For this project, you will write a Java program that demonstrates exception handling. Your program will accept from the user ten numbers and place them in an array. The numbers in the array will be added together and the result displayed to the user. The program will compare the values for the first two elements in the array (only) and determine which number is larger and report that information on screen. Then divide the larger number by the smaller number and report the result of that calculation. The program must use exception handling to avoid division by zero errors or out of range errors, then present a friendly error message to the user. The program must then repeat (loop), prompting the user for new data entry. When the user enters 9999, the program must terminate on the next loop cycle, and this must be indicated in the program text (Enter 9999 to exit.)

Project Steps:

  • Create a new project named “ExceptionHandler.” (Custom classes are not needed.)
  • Write code to accept numbers entered by the user.
  • Use error handling to ensure that only numbers are accepted.
  • Write code to add all values in the array together and display the result to the user.
  • Write code to compare the first two values in the array and report the results
  • Write code to divide the larger number by the smaller number from the above comparison
  • Use error handling to ensure that the program doesnt crash if it attempts to divide a number by zero.
  • Prompt the user for another set of ten numbers.
  • If the user entered 9999 during data entry in the last loop cycle, terminate the program.
  • Use exception handling to manage out of range exceptions (only numbers are entered)
  • Use exception handling to manage division by zero exceptions (as noted)
  • Use exception handling to manage by default any errors that dont fall into the above categories.
  • Using Catch blocks, display the cause of any exceptions to the user.
  • Output instructions to the screen so that the user will know how to operate the program and what to expect.
  • Use code comments to annotate your code, indicating what each line of code does as well as how it works.
  • Make sure the program runs correctly before submission. (Your instructor is here to help!)
  • Create an activity diagram that illustrates how your program works. Your diagram must include all the data items in your program.
  • Formal UML is not required but may be used if preferred. (You may use any software for this, but it must be submitted in Microsoft Word.)
  • ZIP your project folder and submit that and your Word document (containing the activity diagram) to the portal for grading.

This assignment will also be assessed using additional criteria provided (see attachment).
