The Meaning of Fire

Reading: Read the assignment material for the week. This week, the reading assignment is: Tending Fire, Prologue, Chapters One and Two.

Assignment: Provide an approximate 1000-word overview and explanation of the important concepts in the readings. Assume that you are writing for an uninformed reader that knows nothing about the topic and has not read what you read. Provide an introduction that gives the background of the resource you’re reviewing, so the reader will understand what they’re reading and why. Consider the following topics for inclusion in this week’s discussion:

– What is the purpose for wildland fire in the natural ecosystem?

– How does humankind’s desire for civilization conflict with these natural processes?

– What are the options for dealing with wildland fire?

DO NOT list out the topics or questions and answer them. They are not meant to be all-inclusive, and your reader will not understand the context. Rather, give an overview of the author’s entire body of work, using the topics as guidelines. Ensure that you meet or exceed the 1000-word target, and that your paper meets APA presentation requirements. Save the Microsoft Word document as [yourlastnameWkX] (e.g. CuthbertWk1) and upload the paper to the assignment. Scroll down and hit ‘submit’

Industrial psychology

The following case studies have been used to assess incoming Masters program candidates by New York Universitys
(NYU) Industrial /Organizational Psychology MA program. http://as.nyu.edu/content/dam/nyu-
as/psychology/documents/Fiat%20Case%20Study.pdf
The Case Study provides an opportunity for applicants to put Psychology and Science into practice (as expected in the
program). It represents realistic preview of how one might be engaged to drive consultative intervention aimed at
improving conditions for employers and employees alike. This is a business case that asks you to examine one of two
companies (Uber or Volkswagen), from an I/O Psychology vantage point.
Submit a 7-10 minute presentation describing how you might advise and help either Uber or Volkswagen (choose one of
the following case studies). What tradeoffs need to be evaluated? How might individual staff, work teams, and the
overarching organization as a whole be involved to understand what to do now? How could successful change be
measured? What might indicate that the intervention had addressed the most important problems needing to be
addressed? What might a realistic practical business solution involve and entail?
As a burgeoning I/O Psychologist, it is of utmost importance to follow the guidelines set forth by your employer. For this
assignment, I am paying particular attention to your professionalism this includes (see rubric for more details):
1. Imagine that you are creating a video presentation that will be seen by the CEO of VW/Uber. She/he has allotted 7-10
minutes from their busy schedule to hear what you have to say. Thats all you have. Make the best of it.
Your face does not need to be seen on screen for this presentation. Please follow the guidelines in the
assignment portal.
2. Clear and actionable recommendations that your CEO can easily digest and use for the company.
3. A well-practiced and fluid presentation of ideas. If you seem incompetent, the CEO will not buy in to your message.

*you can just write out the speech that you think will make it out to be 7 minutes in a video presentation*

Genogram Presentation

A genogram is a useful tool for helping us to understand the key people and relationships in a clients life. It can also help us to see patterns within those relationships and generational patterns that are affecting our clients. These include immigration patterns and experiences, refugee status, language and cultural barrier experiences, health status, gender identity, and more. Because of the pictorial nature of a genogram, it easily shows issues and concerns in a non-threatening manner.
You will create a PowerPoint presentation that includes a genogram of a family which focuses on multicultural issues three generations back.
You have several options of a genogram to create.
1)You may construct a genogram of your own family. Each of you has a unique family history and we completely understand this- including guardians, foster parents, etc. You are not required to include information that you are uncomfortable sharing or are unable to obtain.
2) If you prefer not to create a genogram of your family, you are welcome to create a genogram of a celebrity or a made up family.
There is not a set number of slides required for this assignment. However, it is important to still meet all of the grading rubric requirements (i.e. including scholarly sources to support your available family information, key multicultural psychology terms from this course etc).
Refer to the attached document for assignment details and grading rubric.

on meaningful use, in write paper format

3HS executives want to upgrade their homegrown EHR to a commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) system that is meaningful use (MU) certified. As the chief procurement officer for the system, the vice president for support services has been designated as the lead for this project. She has asked you for guidance in understanding MU and its implications. Provide a white paper to aid in decision-making.
In informal conversation, the support services vice president has indicated she wishes to better understand Meaningful Use Certified EHR Technology, the applicable statutes, and regulations and why they were enacted, and the benefits of a MU Certified EHR Technology system, including incentives and penalties if the current system was to remain in place. The decision will also be heavily influenced by factors such as average costs and an average time to make such an upgrade, so examples from other health systems such as Kaiser Permanente, DoD, or VA would be valuable. Be sure to furnish evidence to support any statements and quantify evidence with numeric figures, not generalities like enormous, huge, many, most, increased, decreased, high costs, or lower costs.
This white paper should be in APA format and be no more than 5 pages excluding the cover page, table of contents, abstract, appendices, and references.

The Journey Home as a Metaphor for Life
Now that you have read the entire epic, I would like for you to consider the metaphor of Odysseus journey and answer the following questions. In what ways does Odysseus 20 year trip mirror the journey of life that we all have to take? It is clearly a series of trials and tests, but what knowledge does he gain that perhaps he would not have had as a young warrior 20 years earlier? How is this journey necessary before he is able to ascend his throne? In what ways might he be a better ruler after having these experiences?
