An independent film.

/in /by

Research and find an independent film.

Once you have a selected the independent film, answer the questions below:

Q1: What is the name of your film, the director, production studio, and summary of the storyline?

Q2: In regards to the production of your film, how much did it originally cost to produce? Where was it filmed? How was it produced differently from a typical mainstream or blockbuster Hollywood film?

Q3: In regards to the visual design and narrative of your film, what makes it different from a typical mainstream or blockbuster Hollywood film? Include if this movie created a new genre, Breakthru in traditional stereotypes, brought about a cultural change in film or society.

Children’s television programs.

/in /by

During this course, we have examined several children’s television programs. Choose a topic you would like to communicate and describe how you would use a combination of television programs (at least 3) to communicate this message to a young audience (For instance to teach a second language to children you could use: Dora the Explorer. The topic or message can be either something you would like the audience to learn (e.g., a science theory) and/or something you would like to persuade them about (e.g., to lead healthy lives), or both. You may use a television program from the first paper as one of the three required programs. (The Sesame street)
1 Describe your intended audience. Whom are you trying to reach? What do they require for effective learning?
2 Ground your discussion by relating it explicitly to the research we have covered in the course.
3 Discuss the advantage, disadvantage, and biases of each media artifacts

Short Answer Case Study

Fei Hong is a 60-year-old Chinese grandmother who speaks little English. She has moved to Australia to help her daughter with her 3-year-old twins. Fei has started to show signs of early dementia and also has a hearing and sight impairment. While trying to help cook dinner for the family, Fei lost her footing and had a fall. She hit her head on the tiles and is found by her daughter unconscious but still breathing.

Question 1: Given Fei’s daughter has found her unconscious on the floor, discuss the first aid management in this scenario.
Question 2: Fei has arrived at the hospital and the scan shows a bleed in the brain. On return from the scan, Fei becomes unconscious again, this time she has also stopped breathing. Explain the process of the DRSABCD action plan?
Question 3: During the resuscitation, your manager on shift was at a meeting and is unaware of what happened. Are you required to inform them of what has occurred during this time? Explain your answer.
Question 4: This is your first time being involved in a medical emergency and you are feeling quite overwhelmed. Complete the stress management plan in relation to this scenario. v See completed stress management plan
Question 5: While caring for Fei, you need to transfer her from her back to her side. Discuss what
steps you would need to take in order to complete this nursing task [Hint: Consider mobility assessment and nursing skills involved].
Question 6: You are unable to find the equipment required to assist Fei. Discuss the process that needs to be taken and what you as an Enrolled Nurse should consider.

Implications of Difference in Standard Deviation Size

/in /by

This week, we are covering an important concept that is widely used in a variety of fields: the standard deviation. The standard deviation is a measure of how close together a set of data is grouped. In Chapter 2 of your text, Kozak (2014) stated:

“In general a “small” standard deviation means the data is close together (more consistent) and a “large” standard deviation means the data is spread out (less consistent). Sometimes you want consistent data and sometimes you don’t. As an example if you are making bolts, you want to lengths to be very consistent so you want a small standard deviation. If you are administering a test to see who can be a pilot, you want a large standard deviation so you can tell who are the good pilots and who are the bad ones.” (p. 89).

Example Situations Involving Pilots

A large standard deviation tells us that there is a lot of variability in the scores; that is, the distribution of scores is spread out and not clustered around the mean. As Kozak (2104) has stated, when assessing potential pilots, we may want a large standard deviation, so that we can differentiate between candidates; that is, we can determine who would be good pilots and those who would not be good pilots. Since a large standard deviation tells us that there is a lot of variability in the scores, candidates, who would be good pilots, would have scores far above the mean, while those who would not be good pilots would have scores far below the mean. Thus, only the “top” candidates would be selected to be pilots.

A small standard deviation tells us that there is not a lot of variability in a distribution of scores; that is, the scores are very consistent (similar) and close to the mean. Using our pilot example, a small standard deviation is desirable, when considering aircraft landing distances. If there is not enough distance when landing, the aircraft could undershoot the runway; that is, land short of the runway. On the other hand, if there is too much distance, the aircraft can overshoot the runway; that is, the aircraft does not stop before the end of the runway. Both undershooting and overshooting runways could result in injuries and/or fatalities. Thus, it is important that pilots have consistent accurate landing distances. Specifically, over a number of landings, the distances would, on average, be appropriate to the runway length with little variation among the distances.

Now think about how this might apply in your chosen field and answer both of the following questions:

What is an example of when you would want consistent data and, therefore, a small standard deviation?
What is an example of when you might want a large standard deviation? That is, data that is more spread out?
