Art Project

Travel Journal to Points of Interest from the Early Middle Ages, Romanesque, and Gothic Worlds

Travel, whether it was to the Middle East to fight in the Crusades or on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, was an activity that shaped the Middle Ages.

For this assignment, put yourself in the place of a person living during Middle Ages who traveled throughout Europe. Select a total of six representative pieces of art or architecture that date from this period in history. You should have 2 examples from each of the time periods in the Middle Ages: two examples from the Early Middle ages, two that represent the Romanesque, and two that represent Gothic art. Each example should reflect the essential characteristics of its time period. Your objects need to date between 400 CE and 1300 CE—the time span that encompasses the Early Middle Ages, Romanesque, and Gothic periods.

When you return from your travels, prepare a journal that includes the following information for each of your six representative works of art:

  1. A photograph of the object
  2. Identifying information:
    1. Name of the artist (if available)
    2. Title of the work
    3. Date of the work
    4. Medium/materials used to create the work
  3. Then, write a paragraph of 4-6 sentences that:
    1. Describes the visual characteristics that makes the object representative of its style
    2. Places the work within its social and historical context and explains why it is culturally significant

Finally, in a well-developed paragraph of 6-8 sentences, summarize what you have learned from your travels, highlighting key similarities and distinctions between the six objects you selected for discussion.

Nursing Leadership/Wk5 Project

  • Include an introduction and a conclusion.

  • Name your document SU_NSG4029_W5_Project_LastName_FirstInitial.doc.

Generate a list of questions you will ask during the interview such as teaching strategies, theories, technology, and evaluation techniques.

Seasoned nurse educators possess wisdom about teaching (a kind of “with-it-ness”), which they have developed through practical experience over the years. As a person new to nursing education, you have a great deal to learn from a seasoned mentor. In order to gain access to that knowledge, you will conduct an interview with an experienced nurse educator either in a hospital or college setting. Your interview may be conducted face-to-face, online, or by telephone.

For this assignment, you are to:

  • Generate a list of questions you will ask during the interview such as teaching strategies, theories, technology, and evaluation techniques.
  • Conduct the interview.
  • Your discussion post should include:
    • The setting.
    • How the interview was conducted.
    • The questions asked and the responses given.
    • Anything else you think to be important.

HCO’s Vision And Mission

Vision, Mission, and Values Statements

The course is structured so that each week you will work on specific segments of your marketing plan for the Final Project that is due in Week Six. This week you will choose a specific healthcare organization (HCO) and begin examining the products and services found in the HCO’s strategic plan. For this assignment, read Chapter 3 in the course text, which addresses the importance of the mission, vision, and values statements to organizations. Why is it important for an organization to have these statements? What purpose do they serve?

Next, research and choose a specific healthcare organization for your marketing plan. You could select the organization your currently work for, one you are familiar with, or one you would like to work for in the future. After selecting your HCO, conduct research online to locate the organization’s strategic plan and read its vision, mission, and values statements. Add the term strategic plan after the HCO’s name in the search engine box (e.g., Sharp Healthcare strategic plan) to narrow your search results.

In your assignment

  • State your choice of HCO and explain why it interests you.
  • State the organization’s vision, mission, and values statements
  • Discuss whether the organization’s purpose and priorities are clearly defined
  • Discuss whether the mission statement clearly separates the HCO from competing organizations.
  • Include any ideas you have at this point for improving the mission statement in terms of aligning the HCO’s stated priorities with its products and services.
  • Discuss whether the current vision statement correctly describes the HCO’s path as it implements the strategic plan.
    • Could the current vision statement be utilized to motivate the organization’s workforce?
    • If not, how would you reword the vision statement to better reflect high ideals and aspirations to fulfill the HCO’s strategic plan?
  • Discuss whether the current values statement takes into consideration the values of multiple participants such as the community, employees, shareholders, and customers.
    • How would you reword the current value statement to better reflect priorities found within the HCO’s strategic plan?

The assignment

  • Must be five to six double-spaced pages in length (not including the title page and references page) and formatted according to APA style
