To eliminate any discrepancies in terms of information literacy issues, I have selected and downloaded 4 articles that you will need to read for this assignment. You are required to use all 6 articles in your paper.
I recommend that you watch the documentary, Fail State. I saw it on Showtime, but it might be on Netflix too. Watching this documentary is not a requirement, but seeing the documentary will help you with an introduction of the common issues many people face when they are uninformed about the issues surrounding for-profit education.

Essay Development:
Introductory paragraph: Please compose a paragraph that clearly has three parts: Hook, general information, and a thesis statement. The hook should be a statement about the topic. The general information portion of the paragraph should provide a brief review of only two articles. Each summary should identify the full name of author, the title of the work in quotation marks, and the main point. I recommend that you provide a two-sentence summary for each article. Therefore, each article will be addressed in three-sentences each, for a total of 6 sentences for this portion of the paragraph. Finally, the thesis statement is an answer to the prompt question and should be located in the last sentence of the introductory paragraph.
Body paragraphs: Please compose as many body paragraphs as necessary to prove your thesis statement. Since the required length of this paper is 7-full pages long plus a works-cited page, I recommend you use the following format for each paragraph. Effective body paragraphs have three parts: Topic sentence, support, and an analysis.
The topic sentence should start with a transition: First, Next, In addition, Furthermore, Moreover, On the contrary, etc. All transitions are followed by a comma. The topic sentence should strategically address one point about your thesis statement. I strongly recommend that you explain your topic sentence in the second sentence of the paragraph. Explaining the topic sentence creates clarity. Next, you will need to provide some evidence of the claim you made in your topic sentence.
Support for your topic sentence can either be a direct quotation or a paraphrased quotation with a parenthetical citation. Regardless of how you compose your support, if you do not have a proper citation, Turnitin will identify it as PLAGIARISM. To avoid this error, please use MLA format. Consult the online handbook, review the notes I have online about paragraph development, or visit me during office hours to address these issues. Direct quotations must have commentary in the sentence with the direct quotation to provide a context for your audience. DO NOT USE A DIRECT QUOTATION without commentary. Please do not use a quotation that is longer than two typed lines. Please note, you will need to use all eight articles as support for the claims you are making in this paper. In other words, you must use at least one quotation from each article in a body paragraph.

The finally portion of the body paragraph is the analysis. Please begin this portion of the paragraph with a transition: For example, for instance, in this situation, furthermore, moreover, etc. This portion of the paragraph consists of 4 or 5 sentences elucidating the topic sentence. You need to further explain your topic sentence in your own words. Please do not use any quotations or indirect quotations.
Concluding paragraph: This paragraph begins with a transition: All in all, Finally, Therefore, etc. Whatever transition you choose, please do not use “in conclusion.” After the proper transition, please restate your thesis statement using different words. Next, compose two separate sentences about the topic in reference to two authors. The last sentence of this paragraph, the forth, should be a warning: for example, “If people do not do their due diligence, they may not earn their desired outcome”.
The Works-Cited page should be on a separate piece of paper in MLA format. Use the MLA 8 document to properly format each resource. You will need to list all 4 articles on your Works-Cited page. Do not include the URL in the citation.
Essay Format: You must use a Word doc for this assignment. You must use MLA format. Please consult the Online Handbook for immediate assistance with MLA examples or visit me during office hours.

The recent advancement of 3D printing in the forensic science field

It’s a 1.5 page essay about the cause OR effect of the recent advancement of 3D printing in the forensic science field

Teachers notes if more help:
create a 4-paragraph rough draft of your Academic Essay. Your draft should not use any sources at this point and instead should answer questions like: Why do you think this change has happened? or What effects do you think this change has had? Use your own thoughts and ideas to explore these questions but also try to not rely on informal first person (I, me, my, we, us, our) or second person (you, your) and instead attempt to write objectively and formally by using third person.

Think of this draft as an opportunity to try out the hypothesis you established in your preliminary thesis, to explore and examine the point you want your paper to make about the change you have selected to write about, and to learn what you do and do not know and what you need to learn about your topic in order to more successfully write about it.

In this assessment, you will write a maximum 4 page expository essay on providing ethical and multicultural practices within the working (therapeutic) relationship. Your assignment should be supported throughout by references to the readings as well as two outside resources obtained from the Purdue Global Library.
Imagine yourself as a human services professional that has a new client, Carlos. Carlos’ parents came with him to the appointment, and you realize that you are familiar with Carlos’ parents as you are a regular patron of their family restaurant.
Carlos is a 17-year-old Hispanic male and a senior in high school. He is an exceptional student/athlete and has been offered a full scholarship to an out of state university. Carlos states that he has recently started experiencing feelings of anxiety and depression. He has been missing numerous school days and his grades have been declining. Carlos takes on many responsibilities within his family, including daily household chores as well as caring for his younger sister and grandma while his parents work at the restaurant. Carlos sometimes works at his parents’ restaurant after he is done with school, sport events/practices and on the weekends. Carlos wants to go to college, but is torn on separating himself from his family.
Carlos’ parents are unsure what to do because they are reporting he is not his usual confident/happy self. His parents state that they do not want him to go far away to college and prefer he find a college close to home so he can continue helping the family.
Review the case study and write a maximum 4 page paper on how you will provide ethical and multicultural practices within the working (therapeutic) relationship.
Relate ethics to the working relationship.
Explain informed consent, confidentiality and exceptions of confidentiality to Carlos and his parents.

Mentoring Like Jesus

2018-present scholarly peer-reviewed articles from United States
Again, you will see Jesus providing the example needed to understand effective human resource management practices. A robust mentoring plan can mean all the difference to a new graduate, while leaning into the “eating our young” approach can leave a vacant position quickly! Although now a classic, the assigned Walker (2004) article provides you a succinct commentary on how Jesus shared wonderful examples of mentoring with us in the Bible. You will consider your own experiences, both as a new graduate and a nurse leader, and share experiences with your classmates. And you will explore a similar term known as precepting and how it also contributes to workforce development.

Upon successful completion of this discussion, you will be able to:

Apply a Biblical perspective to human resource management practices in health care organizations.
Background Information

While several scriptures are assigned, reading the full account of Jesus’ ministry in any of the gospels will give you a wider understanding of how He mentored. Feel free to cite additional scriptures where you find interesting examples!

Be sure to review the rubric carefully so you fully understand the criteria to get all the points.
Based on your reading, respond to the following:
Consider how the Bible portrays Jesus’ relationship with the disciples. How do you see the mentoring process exemplified? Recall your first weeks and months as a new graduate and describe how you were mentored. What would you have liked to have been different? Share an opportunity you have had to be a mentor. What would you have liked to have been different?
Explore what it means to be a preceptor. Explain how this is different from mentoring. How do you see both processes contributing to workforce development?
