Annotated Bibliography

Topic: Driving safety and types of distractions

 

Craft a research question on the topic you selected in your first discussion question post. Then locate at least five articles from peer-reviewed journals that pertain to your question that will be used to write the introduction section of your research proposal.

Submit these five citations in the form of an APA-style reference page. Under each citation, write one paragraph summarizing the main points of the article. As you read your articles, keep the following questions at hand; these will help you generate the information about each article.

    • What were the topic/research questions being investigated?

 

    • How was the study conducted (participants, materials, procedure, etc.)?

 

    • What did the results reveal?

 

    • How might these methodological considerations affect the research findings and the conclusions drawn from them?

 

  • How does this article fit in with your paper? How did it influence your own ideas about your paper?

Based on your reading of the literature, what do you expect to find?

Include a hypothesis and a title page for your submission.

 

Describe to the audience the characteristics of a cancer cell.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. You have been invited by your local community health department to give a PowerPoint presentation on cancers. Your goal is to educate your audience about the definition of cancer, the causes, means for early detection and preventative measures. The meeting will take place at the health department during a community health fair. Be mindful that your target audience will be composed of people from the local community who most likely will not have a background in science or medicine.

Your assignment will be to pick one cancer and discuss each of the following:

  • Introduction to cancers.
  • Describe to the audience the characteristics of a cancer cell.
  • Indicate which cancer is the focus of your presentation.
  • Identify which tissues and/or organs in the human body are affected by this cancer.
  • The incidence rate of this type of cancer.
  • Typical age of onset for this type of cancer.
  • Explain the risk factors and/or causes of this cancer.
  • How this cancer is detected and diagnosed.
  • Pictures and/or illustrations of cancer cells.
  • The risk of metastasis for this cancer.
  • How this cancer is treated including the long-term prognosis. What are the survival rates?
  • Measures that people may take to prevent this cancer both medical and holistic.
  • Reference page including citations in standard APA format.

Your PowerPoint presentation should be written with your audience in mind. Remember, your audience does not have a science or medical background, so you will need to translate any “jargon” into something that they will understand.

You must write your “script” of what you will say to your audience in the notes section of each PowerPoint slide. Each slide will have a picture and/or bullet points, along with your notes located in the notes section below the slide, with the specific talking points you will deliver to the audience.

The presentation should be between 10–15 slides, not including the title and references slides.

Design An Addiction Prevention Program For Schools Or Workplace In Powerpoint For Psychology Addiction Studies

Prevention Program: Students will design a small prevention program that could be implemented at a health fair, at a workplace, or in a school. The goal of this assignment is to articulate the social, biological, and psychological consequences of addictive behaviors to an at-risk population and contextualize issues of addiction in historical and social frameworks.

 

This assessment will assess your mastery with respect to the following course outcomes:

 

  • Analyze addictive behaviors for their social and psychological effects on the individual, family, community, or society
  • Identify connections between historical milestones and contemporary approaches to addictions
