In your own success in achieving a college education, consider the following four factors:
a) your parent’s attitude toward education,
b) your parent’s financial resources,
c) the quality of your elementary and secondary schools, and
d) your own hard work and determination.
First, rank these factors in terms of importance. Then, choose any three combinations of two factors listed in question 1 (for example, school quality and student work ethic) and explain why they are likely to be correlated.
Using the Religious Diversity Checklist, conduct an audit of an organization to which you have belonged. Once you answer the questions, analyze the answers and generalize from them to offer the organization advice on its treatment of religion in the workplace. How would you rate the organization on its performance on a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being excellent)?

This week culminates in your submission of an annotated bibliography that should consist of an introduction, followed by two quantitative article annotations, two qualitative article annotations, and two mixed methods article annotations for a total of six annotations, followed by a conclusion.
An annotated bibliography is a document containing selected sources accompanied by a respective annotation. Each annotation consists of a summary, analysis, and application for the purpose of conveying the relevance and value of the selected source. As such, annotations demonstrate a writer’s critical thinking about and authority on the topic represented in the sources.
In preparation for your own future research, an annotated bibliography provides a background for understanding a portion of the existing literature on a particular topic. It is also a useful precursor for gathering sources in preparation for writing a subsequent literature review.
Before you read the full article and begin your annotation, locate the methodology section in the article to be sure that it describes the appropriate research design.
For quantitative research articles, confirm that a quantitative research design, such as a quasi-experimental, casual comparative, correlational, pretest-posttest, or true experimental, was used in the study.
For qualitative research articles, confirm that a qualitative research design or approach, such as narrative, ethnographic, grounded theory, case study, or phenomenology, was used in the study.
For mixed methods research articles, confirm that a mixed methods research (MMR) design was used in the study. There are several design classifications in MMR; some examples of MMR types or families of design are parallel, concurrent, sequential, multilevel, or fully integrated mixed methods design.
Prepare an annotated bibliography that includes the following:
A one-paragraph introduction that provides context for why you selected the six research articles you did: two quantitative, two qualitative, and two MMR.
A reference list entry in APA Style for each of the six articles that follows proper formatting. Follow each reference list entry with a three-paragraph annotation that includes:
A one-paragraph conclusion that presents a synthesis of the six articles.
Format your annotated bibliography in Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced. A separate Reference list page is not needed for this assignment.
Articles to use are attached. There are 2 quantitative, 2 qualitative, and 2mixed methods research articles,

Individuals and their families who experience a medical/physical illness often find the use of psychoeducational or support groups helpful as they navigate the illness/disease process. This assignment provides students the opportunity to visit a support group of your choosing (DBT skills group for patients with Bipolar,depression and anxiety and other personality disorders). Your observations will serve as the basis for a paper that will critically consider clinical practice concepts pertinent to health care social work presented in this course and related to the specific diagnosis of your chosen support group. That is, the support group serves as your clinical “observation” and should focus on the medical/physical diagnosis and its impact on patients and families, and notion any particular attendees of the support group. For the purpose of this assignment, any analysis of patients’ and family members’ experiences (e.g., adjustment to diagnosis, coping, etc.) should be discussed in aggregate form and not in terms of unique individuals.
Task:
Preliminary Tasks:
Select a patient/family support group. (Outpatient open to the public is most feasible, however, Inpatient is also acceptable)
Contact the group facilitator for permission to attend one meeting.
Submit “Support Group Prospectus” to the instructor for approval
Attend One Meeting. (If the group facilitator expects an introduction, then state the following: “My name is ___, and I am a graduate student at Rutgers University’s School of Social Work. I am taking a course in health care, and need to attend a support group for one of my assignments. I am interested in understanding more about____ (diagnosis) and I am grateful to you and to ____ (group facilitator) for allowing me to attend.”
Write an analysis that explicitly integrates course concepts as instructed below.
Instructions:
Papers will comprise no more than 4 total pages, with 3 “analysis” pages:-
~ Diagnosis, (outpatient) and purpose of the group (DBT SKILLS FOR PATIENTS WITH BIPOLAR AND PERSONALITY DISORDERS) DBT skills group for patient’s at an outpatient and intensive outpatient program; Outpatient Behavioral Health at Overlook Medical Center
.~ To promote a strong culture of academic integrity, Rutgers has adopted the following honor pledge to be written and signed on examinations and major course assignments submitted for grading. Please type and sign on your cover page the following: On my honor, I have neither received nor given any unauthorized assistance on this assignment. Signed by ________. (the typed name is acceptable for electronic papers)
~ This paper will view your chosen diagnosis and the experience of patients and families through the lens of course concepts only from our Gehlert & Browne textbook Chapter 13 “Families, Health and Illness” by John S. Rolland. Explicitly integrate (cite) course concepts throughout your analysis.
That is, avoid merely “telling the story” of what happened during the support group session, but link information observed at a group to specific Ch. 13 concepts.
*Note: Include the patient in the “Family Illness Model” (p. 319) and other chapter concepts.
Use concepts from the entire Chapter 13 in your discussion/analysis of the following:
** Psychosocial Types of Illness (p. 320)
A .Onset
Course
Outcome
d .Incapacitation
** Phases of Illness Developmental Tasks (p. 322; Table 13.1)
–Note: Explicitly connect your analysis to the three specific phases and the numeric tasks and as relevant to your group/diagnosis (i.e., identify which phase and which numbers within each phase that your case examples/analysis links to).
For the paper: It is essential that you protect the anonymity of others (e.g., use pseudonyms in place of actual names of persons and organizations and geographic locations); protect the confidentiality of others (omit any identifying or highly sensitive information that could link individuals and agencies with the content of this paper). [Modify and cut/paste this verbiage onto the cover page, which acknowledges you have done so]
Excellent papers address relevant course concepts and are well-written, well-organized, informal English, demonstrate a masterful ability to analyze the participants in terms of clinical practice concepts learned in Ch. 13, use of verbatim quotes and paraphrasing participant (including group facilitator) statements that serve as “case material” and “information” to support your analysis, and show evidence of critical thinking and client strengths. [Analytic depth: state/identify concepts, define & cite, provide an example, discuss/analyze how example illustrates the concept, integrate/cite course materials—yet, avoid stringing together quotes from the literature. I want to hear your voice, your analysis.
Because this paper draws only from Chapter 13, use only page numbers for in-text citations (only for the purpose of this paper, and to save space). However, be sure to use quotation marks when quoting the textbook verbatim (which should be kept to a minimum).
~ First-person voice is preferred.
