For instance, you can select the company you’re currently working at, a company you admire, or a company that you think could benefit from an ethical corporate culture makeover.
There are many practical applications of ethics and ways to foster an ethical culture. You have encountered several strategies found in the ebooks used in this course.
Follow these steps to complete the assignment. For all of these steps, make sure you provide examples and information from credible sources to support your writing and claims.

Given that narration is required, what format would be best for this audience and your purpose for presenting? Why?

In Module 7, you submitted a workplace proposal that was based on your research paper from Module 6. Let’s assume that the person to whom you submitted your proposal now wants you to prepare a presentation for the company executives or board of directors. In this activity, you will be using the content from your research essay and your proposal to develop a presentation with both oral and visual elements.
If your proposal was intended to be submitted in an organization or company that doesn’t have executives or a board of directors, that’s fine. You’ll want to deliver your presentation to whomever the equivalent people are in the target organization.
Offer Your Initial Thoughts
As you make initial decisions about your presentation, consider the following questions:
To whom are you presenting your research and proposal? What do you know about them?
What key points does the audience need to see and hear to decide on the issue?
Given that narration is required, what format would be best for this audience and your purpose for presenting? Why?
What is the main idea you want to convey in the presentation? How will you introduce it?
What are the main points you want to include? How will you present them (for example, you might address one main point per slide in a PowerPoint with supporting points bulleted)
What supporting points will you include for each main point?
What sources will you cite and where?
How and where in the presentation will you use visual elements to engage your audience?
How and where in the presentation will you use an audio element?
After you’ve answered these questions, the next step is to choose a presentation method. You can use PowerPoint if you would like, but you are not restricted to that tool. If you think your audience would benefit from another presentation method, such as a narrated infographic or video, that is acceptable. Don’t be afraid to get creative with this project! If you are uncertain as to the best approach for your purpose and audience, reach out to your instructor for help.
The final draft of your presentation will be seven to 10 minutes long and must include the following, irrespective of the presentation method you choose:
a title
an agenda or content overview
content that clearly articulates the problem, the solution, and any other pertinent information, including support from scholarly secondary sources, all of which will be drawn from your research essay and proposal
a summary at the end that includes the call to action upon which you want your audience to act
documentation of source material with in-text citations where needed and a corresponding references slide
appropriate visual elements (at least three), along with appropriate color, font, and background choices
narration throughout the presentation
Your draft presentation must include your narration.

Write a Play comparison: Sovereignty (Mary Kathryn Nagle) and Pass Over (Antoinette Nwandu)

“Note,
please, that this means you need a clear
thesis and argument around which your paper is structured. Vague statements
like “[Text X] is very different from [Text Y],” or “[Text Q] is very similar
to [Text R]” just don’t work and aren’t acceptable. Please find specific points on which to compare
your two chosen texts, and have a definite
reason for doing so.

Unlike
many other papers, you may use outside sources for research in this assignment.
However, please select your materials
judiciously: online sites such as SparkNotes, CliffNotes, Wikipedia,
Gradesaver, PinkMonkey, etc. should be avoided—they are not going
to give you the kind of useful information that more reputable sources such as
books, articles, and scholarly websites (look for .edu or maybe .org extensions
on website addresses) will.

As always, your paper must include a complete bibliography (of all your sources) to be complete.”

Of the two plays emphasis should be placed toward Sovereignty as the more important text. As far as the content in the essay itself please focus on the idea of Sovereignty and different definitions / interpretations of (Ex: Domestic Sovereignty & Popular Sovereignty) as a strong / major comparing point between these two texts (IE: In Pass Over, Moses and Kitch seek individual Sovereignty from white supremacy and priviledged denial to govern their own lives much like the Tribal Sovereignty sought by 19th century Native Americans signing the Treaty of New Echota, like John Ridge of the Cherokee Nation in Mary Kathryn Nagle’s Sovereignty.) Although please do not feel limited by this idea of Sovereignty and feel free to explore the texts as needed.

Write an analysis on the explanation of the significance of the two research studies to health care delivery in the United States.

A study of vaccinations and autism rates
Maternal health, fetal health, or elder health
Disease-based studies, such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease
The increasing rates of caesarean sections in birthrates
Managed health care in the United States
Any of the leading Health Indicator topics (2020 LHI Topics) profiled in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Healthy People 2020 initiative website
Part One
Complete the attached “Article Comparison Table” to compare the two articles in terms of content, research methods, focus of the study, target audiences and subjects, and their possible impacts on the future of health care delivery.
Part Two
Write an analysis that includes the following:
Summary of the topic you chose with rationale. (This may have personal significance to you or it may be a topic of particular interest that you have seen in the news.)
Explanation of the significance of the two research studies to health care delivery in the United States.
Description of the major functions provided by research and data monitoring of health care delivery in the United States.
Identification of potential environments within health care delivery appropriate to research and data monitoring.
Assessment of the impact of the studies in your chosen articles related to health care delivery, incorporating and expanding on the information you provided in Part One. Were the studies intended to change or influence health care delivery? If so, how? If not, what are the implications of each study for health care delivery?

Explore a health behavior (e.g., smoking, using a condom) and its association with a health outcome/issue (e.g., lung cancer, sexually transmitted infections).

Explore a health behavior (e.g., smoking, using a condom) and its association with a health outcome/issue (e.g., lung cancer, sexually transmitted infections). For this unit’s assignment, identify a health behavior associated with a health issue and find three peer-reviewed articles that
utilize a health behavior theory to examine the health behavior you selected, and
were published in a refereed journal within the last 10 years.
Begin this assignment with a 1–2 paragraph summary of your chosen health behavior and health issue. Next, provide an annotated bibliography based upon these three sources. For each source in your annotated bibliography, you will write two paragraphs. The first paragraph will be to summarize the information in your own words. In the second paragraph, you will analyze/critique the source by examining strengths and weaknesses specific to application of the behavior theory. You may answer questions such as the following: What did the study do particularly well? What areas were not addressed adequately?
In this assignment, you may select health behavior theories that are presented in future units within this course, as well as health behavior theories that are not presented in this course. The health behavior theories explored on your chosen health issue in this unit will serve as the basis for future assignments.

What are your thoughts about the ethics of randomized clinical trials?

t tests are often used to determine the efficacy of a particular treatment. In ideal randomized clinical trials, subjects and providers don’t know who is getting the treatment and who is getting the placebo. This way, the data won’t be compromised. It is, in fact, quite important that everyone believe they are getting the treatment.
