Good morning Class and Dr. Wess,

Last year there was a story that broke on my local news station that a teacher had recently resigned after issuing a morality test to her students. She gave a quiz on ethical dilemmas that asked questions about sex and violent behavior (1). It included questions like “a man kills a baby rabbit with a knife” on live TV (1). Another question said, “”a brother and a sister decide that they want to sleep with each other, just once, to see what it would be like.” The spokesperson for the district issued a statement that said while the district’s approved curriculum and educational materials encourage students to think critically, there were many items in this quiz that were inappropriate and not part of the classroom guidelines (1).

The ethical dilemma going on here is that the teacher asked some pretty inappropriate questions for high school students. As you might have thought, the community was a bit upset with this material and felt disrespected. I am a believer in pushing the boundaries to being able to think critically even if it is not always the best scenarios, but this is pretty crazy for high school. I think the teacher probably did the right thing in resigning and should think about other positive ways to get her students to think critically. You can check out some of the questions that were asked from the link below.

T-Test Paper —– Due by Wednesday 2/27/13 @ 4pm

Assignment 2: T-Test

By Wednesday, February 27, 2013, post your assignment to the M2: Assignment 2 Dropbox. Any conclusion drawn for the t-test statistical process is only as good as the research question asked and the null hypothesis formulated. T-tests are only used for two sample groups, either on a pre post-test basis or between two samples (independent or dependent). The t-test is optimized to deal with small sample numbers which is often the case with managers in any business. When samples are excessively large the t test becomes difficult to manage due to the mathematical calculations involved.

Calculate the “t” value for independent groups for the following data using the formula presented in the module. Check the accuracy of your calculations. Using the raw measurement data presented above, determine whether or not there exists a statistically significant difference between the salaries of female and male human resource managers using the appropriate t-test. Develop a research question, testable hypothesis, confidence level, and degrees of freedom. Draw the appropriate conclusions with respect to female and male HR salary levels. Report the required “t” critical values based on the degrees of freedom. Your response should be 2-3 pages.

Salary Level
Female HR Directors Male HR Directors
$50,000 $58,000
$75,000 $69,000
$72,000 $73,000
$67,000 $67,000
$54,000 $55,000
$58,000 $63,000
$52,000 $53,000
$68,000 $70,000
$71,000 $69,000
$55,000 $60,000

*Do not forget what we all learned in high school about “0”s

The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter Drucker in his book, The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services. Does this sound familiar?

Nurses are very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.

In this Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker. You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of nurse as knowledge worker.

Reference: Drucker, P. (1959). The landmarks of tomorrow. New York, NY: HarperCollins Publishers.

To Prepare:

  • Review the concepts of informatics as presented in the Resources.
  • Reflect on the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
  • Consider how knowledge may be informed by data that is collected/accessed.

The Assignment:

  • Explain the concept of a knowledge worker.
  • Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
  • Develop a simple infographic to help explain these concepts.

    NOTE: For guidance on infographics, including how to create one in PowerPoint, see “How to Make an Infographic in PowerPoint” presented in the Resources.

  • Surce that is youtube clip:  

Public Health Informatics Institute. (2017). Public Health Informatics: “translating” knowledge for health [Video file]. Retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLUygA8Hpfo.

  • Your PowerPoint should Include the hypothetical scenario you originally shared in the Discussion Forum. Include your examination of the data that you could use, how the data might be accessed/collected, and what knowledge might be derived from that data. Be sure to incorporate feedback received from your colleagues’ responses.

Module 6

/in /by

Overview
In this module, you have learned about the importance of body language and vocal inflection in public speaking. In this video journal activity, you will examine a video to identify poor nonverbal practices. Use this opportunity to practice public speaking and apply the best practices you have learned. Please note that your Bongo submission is only viewable by your instructor.

Prompt
Watch this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0M1_kAK71s) of a politician asking for his partys nomination: Speech Bad Example (0:44). Then, in a 1- to 2-minute video journal, discuss examples of poor nonverbal and verbal communication techniques you identified in the video. Also, suggest the public speaking best practices that the speaker should have utilized, and offer recommendations on how to further develop better body language and vocal inflection when giving presentations.

Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

Communication Techniques: Describe the poor verbal and nonverbal public speaking techniques you observed in the video.
Best Practices: Describe the best practices for public speaking that the speaker should have followed. Refer to your module resources, and cite them where required.
Delivery: Demonstrate best practices when recording and presenting your video journal. Use appropriate body language, tone, vocalized pauses, and eye contact with your audience (or in this case, camera) as you record your video journal.
