Barry is a 445-year-old computer programmer who has never been married and lives with his mother. He spends his evenings and weekends either playing Scrabble with his mother, surfing the internet or participating in chat rooms. His friend Eddie set him up on a blind date with a woman from his work. Yet Barry forgot the time and showed up so late that his date had already left, thinking she’d been stood up. Barry would like to date her, but is too ashamed to call and apologize for not keeping their date. Until recently, his work had been going really well, but after he missed an important project date, the client withdrew the contract offer.

Ashford 3: – Week 2 – Assignment

Applying Epidemiology

Epidemiology is the study of epidemics. More specifically, it is the study of the occurrence and distribution of health problems. Using any of the epidemiological techniques outlined in the chapters from this week’s reading, address the questions for one of the case studies outlined below.

  •  Epidemiological Case #1: Gastroenteritis at a University in Texas
  •  Epidemiological Case #2: Norovirus in Vermont

There are two parts to this assignment:

Part I: Provide a brief statement of the investigative issue. Describe the epidemiological steps you would take by addressing the questions asked within the case study you select.

Part II: Address the questions noted at the end of your selected case study. Your paper should be at least four pages in length, but can exceed this depending on how much detail you provide on the epidemiological steps you take for your case. You should use at least one additional scholarly source in addition to the textbook. Format your paper and all citations according to APA style guidelines as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

Carefully review the  Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.

 

 

USE THE ABOVE WEBSITE TO ANSWER THE QUESTION

Explain what Socrates claims is his role in Athenian society and how he knows that this is his role.

/in /by

In Week One, you were introduced to one of the most famous works in philosophy: Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave.” In another work by Plato, titled Apology, Socrates is on trial. The word apology in this context means defense. Socrates is presenting a defense of himself. In this reading, you will see how Socrates uses critical thinking to defend himself against the charges brought against him and the outcome of his trial. In fact, Socrates is generally recognized as being the founder of critical thinking. The Socratic method of questioning involves examining ideas in order to purify them and understand more about them. As you read the Apology, pay attention to the way that Socrates responds to his accusers and the methods he uses to present the argument that he is in fact innocent.

The essay must be 400 words in length, excluding title and reference pages, and formatted according to APA style. If you would like to refer to APA samples and tutorials, review the APA Checklist within the Ashford Writing Center (https://awc.ashford.edu/cd-apa-checklist.html) located in the Learning Resources tab in the left navigation bar. The only required resource for this assignment is the Apology. This should be the piece that you primarily use to complete this assignment. Secondary sources are welcome but not necessary, and they may not be used in place of the Apology.

After you have read the Apology, write a 400-word essay in which you:

  1. Identify both sets of charges that were brought against Socrates.
  2. Explain how Socrates responds to these charges, and identify the premises he uses to support his claims of innocence.
  3. Explain what Socrates claims is his role in Athenian society and how he knows that this is his role.
  4. Present your own view of Socrates’ guilt or innocence.
    • Would you have voted to convict him or to set him free?
    • Support your claims with your premises/reasons.

PSY310 Reducing Intergroup Conflict – Solution

/in /by

Research suggests a number of strategies to reduce intergroup conflict. To further explore these strategies, in addition to readings in your text, read the following article paying particular attention to pages 588 to 593. Hewstone, M., Rubin, M., & Willis, H. (2002). Intergroup bias. Annual Review of Psychology, 53, 575-604.(see attachment for article)

 

You are a counselor in a detention center for delinquent adolescent boys. Your current project is to devise a way to reduce intergroup conflict that has been escalating between the boys at the center, many of whom were active in local gangs.

    • Discuss in detail the concepts that lead to the intergroup conflict, such as stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination. How have these attitudes and behaviors created and perpetuated the ongoing conflict?

 

    • Discuss the different strategies to reduce intergroup conflict found in your text and the Hewstone article.

 

    • Looking back at the course discuss 2 to 3 additional concepts that could be applied in helping a person overcome these negative attitudes and behaviors.

 

  • Keeping these strategies and concepts in mind, what activities and/or programs can you create that will help these boys overcome this conflict and learn to work together, respect each other, and come to see each other’s differences as valuable. Briefly summarize each program/strategy in 2 to 3 sentences each in preparation for part 2 of this project.

Answer the above points in a 3- to 4-page paper. Your paper should be double-spaced, typed in 12-point Times New Roman font with normal one-inch margins, written in APA style, and free of typographical and grammatical errors. It should include a title page with a running head, an abstract, and a reference page.

 

Part 2:

Create a 4- to 8-slide PowerPoint presentation (not including title and reference slides) to present to the board of directors for the detention center that will cover the following:

    • A detailed outline of each of the 3 to 4 programs/strategies that you would like to put into place at the center.

 

  • Discuss for each program/strategy why you believe it will be effective within the context of your detention center.

Please provide 4-5 academic references written in APA
