Draft Leadership project plan

The purpose of this project is for the student to explore a management issue or problem in the practicum setting that is responsive to strategies proposed by the nurse leader or manager. A clinical topic may not be used. The topic of this project, addressing a leadership or management issue, will be chosen through collaboration with the preceptor, and be specific to the practicum setting. It is permissible to use the same topic you wrote about in the Leadership Theory course, but remember, the choice of topic is reached by a collaboration between you and your preceptor, and must be applicable to where you are doing your Practicum (if you have a preceptor).
Each student will develop a project focusing on an issue or problem through collaboration with appropriate individuals / departments in the practicum setting. The project must address a nursing management issue and be responsive to strategies a nurse leader can and would implement. The instructor and the preceptor (if you have one) MUST approve the project.
There are several steps to this project. A draft of the intended project will be submitted for faculty review and feedback before the final plan is required. Refer to the class schedule for specific due dates.
Use the DRAFT Project Plan template listed above for this assignment. Type your answers into the text boxes on the template.

Generative Art and its Importance in NFTs

Format: 8–10 pages (~2000 words) not including bibliography (MLA or Chicago so long as it is
consistent), double spaced, 12-point Times New Roman or Calibri in Microsoft Word (.docx) format.

Develop an analytical essay that explores your chosen topic.
You should identify the major artists within your chosen style or movement and discuss why specific
works of art are exemplary of it. You should then further develop a clear thesis about your chosen topic,
take a position, and defend your ideas with examples from your sources and examples of works of art.
Note: your essay is not a summary of works within a particular style but rather must present an argument
or claim about what you are analyzing. There is no strict form that the essay should take but it should
discuss multiple artists and works from within a particular movement rather than focus in on one artist.

A successful essay will present a clearly argued point of view and support its argument with sources. It
will avoid statements of opinion and instead rely on clear use of examples (readings, works, additional
sources, lectures). Your essay should be in conversation with the course materials as well as your chosen
sources (a minimum of 5).

Part One: Advertisement Analysis
In this section, you will analyze the four advertisements you selected earlier in the course. Use social science approaches to gather specific information from them. As you conduct your analyses, think about what these advertisements say about the companies selling the products, the organizations making the ads, the people purchasing the products, and society as a whole.
Determine how individuals and groups are represented in the advertisements.
What audiences are the advertisements trying to reach?
What unspoken or underlying messages do you think the ads might be sending?
Identify stereotyped group behavior in the advertisements.
What are the advertisements saying about the behavior of the groups represented in them?
What underlying messages do the advertisements send about the group behaviors in them and the audiences they assume will be consuming the products?
Determine how different cultures are represented in the advertisements.
How do the ads represent culture? Are any stereotypes being used?
What unspoken or underlying messages do you think the ads might be sending about culture?
Discuss how ethical issues in the social sciences impact advertising. Look beyond the economic effects of advertisements and consider the following questions to help address this prompt:
Do the ads confirm biases? Do they rely on stereotypes? Do they support social change? Do they stay neutral on social or political movements? Should they get involved in social or political movements?
Why might it be important for advertisers and companies in a diverse world to be as inclusive and unbiased as possible?
Part Two: Social Science Questions
The answers that come from an analysis can often lead to more questions. In this section, you will use the information you found from your advertisement analyses to ask a broader social science question. You do not need to answer the question, but you do need to talk about how you might study your advertisements using the skills and knowledge you’ve gained in this course.
Propose a finalized social science research question based on your analysis of the advertisements you chose.
Think beyond the minor details from your analysis and consider what the ads say about individuals, groups, institutions, or society.
What is the meaning or significance of the ads? For example, you might be interested in ethical issues related to advertising. You might want to explore how current events influence the content of ads. Or maybe you would like to ask how common themes in ads could impact an audience’s self-concept.
Discuss how you used a social science perspective to develop your research question.
Explain how you used social science concepts, perspectives, or approaches to write your research question.
Explain one major development in the social sciences that may have influenced your research question.
The major development could include an important event, a discovery, the rejection of an old theory, acceptance of a new theory, or a change in culture that affected the field.
How might these changes in thinking and research have affected the conclusions drawn about your advertisements and the questions asked about them?
Part Three: Reflection
In this section, you will reflect on your experience using social science perspectives to analyze advertisements and ask research questions. You will consider how your personal beliefs, assumptions, and values influenced the question you developed, and explain why knowledge of the social sciences is important to understanding yourself, other people, and the world around you.
Describe how your assumptions, beliefs, and/or values influenced the way you analyzed your advertisements.
Consider how your perceptions of the social world may have influenced the way you viewed your advertisements. Did it/they cause you to make assumptions about the people in the ads? Did you focus on certain advertisements, or parts of advertisements as a result? How might someone with a different set of beliefs view your advertisements?
Discuss how social science perspectives or approaches could be used to process information.
Focus on the social science perspectives or approaches you feel would be the most beneficial for analyzing the information you are presented with every day.
For example, would analyzing ads on social media from the political science perspective help you better understand a company’s political stance on issues? What perspective would help you determine if there was a possible link between the length of a commercial and its intended audience? Would examining an ad targeted at caregivers from a sociological perspective help you understand the meaning of family in various cultures?
Explain how looking at the world from social science perspectives may impact your personal life.
How might using social science skills help you process and understand the information you use in your life?
Explain how examining issues from social science perspectives may affect your community relationships.
Think about challenges or opportunities in your community. How might applying social science perspectives to those issues benefit your community?
Discuss how being more informed about the social sciences may help you understand global contemporary issues.
Consider how understanding the ways social scientists examine human behaviors could influence the way you approach global challenges and questions.

MeToo Movement

You will write a 2000-word analysis of one MeToo movement of your choice
> Demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the readings on
intersectionality and transnational MeToo movements.
> Make links between the course materials and your analysis of the movement.
• Cite and use at least 4 course readings from the second half of the course (Weeks
8-12).
• Use an additional 8 public sources minimum for your analysis of the METOO
movement of your choice.

Your essay should consist of three parts:
1. Introduction
2. Analysis
> (1) Section 1: Offer an analytic and critical examination of the
MeToo movement that you chose. : Who were the actors involved; what were the issues it raised; how did it emerge and spread widely (or not). What kinds of social response did it generate, and how can this case be
understood in comparison to other MeToo cases in the same country? discuss whose
voices and experiences were highlighted, and whose were silenced.

(2) Section 2: Use course insights to situate the MeToo movement of your choice and the larger MeToo movement of that country in the transnational context. Out of all the course readings on MeToo which one is the most similar to the case of your choice? Which one is the most different? Why do you think it is
the case? Explicitly use and cite the relevant readings when you
discuss the similarities and differences, and the potential reasons.

Music Theory/History and Literature of the 20th Century

Length and Format
The term paper should be 7-10 pages in length (double spaced, with 12-point Times New Roman font and 1-inch margins).
Format the paper using the Chicago Manual of Style (footnotes and bibliography). Use The Chicago Manual of Style and A Manual for Writers, 8th Edition by Kate L. Turabian as guides. Both of these resources are available in the Biola University Library.

Sources
You will need a minimum of five sources IN ADDITION TO any entries in the Grove Dictionary of Music that you might consult in order to write a satisfactory paper of 7-10 pages. Proper use of appropriate sources will factor into your grade.

Topics
Your paper should discuss some element or elements of art music as practiced in Western Civilization during the 20th century. Your paper should include both historical and analytical components, though how much you focus on each of these areas will differ depending on your topic and the aspects of that topic you discuss.
If you choose to focus mostly on analysis of one or more compositions, you should put the music in its historical context. The historical context will include such things as information about the composer relevant to the music studied; influences on the composer relevant to the music studied; the cultural, political, social, religious or other context in which the music was written when relevant; and the impact of the music on other composers, compositions, other art forms, and society.

If you choose to focus mostly on historical, social, political or other matters, you need to connect these areas to one or more specific pieces of music and explain how your topic is relevant to this music. For instance, if you write a paper about the limitations and pressures on composers in Soviet Russia you might focus mainly on Soviet laws and guidelines for artists, and personal recollections of composers. Nevertheless, your paper also should refer to specific compositions created in Soviet Russia and discuss how they were shaped by the realities within which they were composed.
Below are general suggestions for paper topics. You may use these as starting points, or come up with your own topic. If you take this latter route, make sure to meet with me about the topic early in your research process to verify that it is a viable and acceptable topic.

1. Focus on a particular aspect or a few related aspects of one composer’s work. Be careful that you do NOT just give a broad overview of a composer’s life and what he or she composed. Your paper should have a narrower focus than that, and should probe deeper than merely providing a basic composer biography and listing the names and types of compositions he or she wrote.

Poor topic: The life and music of Dmitri Shostakovich
This would only work if you were writing a 500-page book.
Possible topic: Shostakovich’s atonal music
In order to write a successful paper on this topic you would need to figure out a specific point or points to make about this atonal music so that you avoid merely listing the relevant pieces and giving a blow-by-blow description of them. A plausible solution would be to focus on influences on Shostakovich’s atonal music, particular musical features, and the social and political ramifications of writing it.
Good topic: Did Shostakovich include coded protests against the Soviet government in his music?
Such a paper would investigate the research on both sides of the issue (on the one hand, evidence that he incorporated such coded messages and on the other hand research that argues against his incorporating such messages), and then draw a conclusion based on this investigation (i.e., given the evidence, what is most likely true about the situation)?

2. The interaction of music and politics
Discuss the relationship between music and political systems and events in the 20th C. You would want to focus on a particular political system, a particular political event, or the interaction of the music of one composer with politics.
A possible focus might be…
Music in Soviet Russia
Music in relation to a particular war (WWI, WWII, Vietnam War)
Richard Strauss and the Nazi regime

3. The interaction of music and dance in the 20th C
Many prominent 20th-century composers collaborated with prominent choreographers and dancers. Discuss some aspect of this phenomenon (e.g., the collaboration of a particular composer with a particular dancer; the role of dance on the development of a composer’s compositional style).

4. The interaction of music and visual art
e.g., Debussy and impressionist painting (How was Debussy influenced by impressionist painters? How does his music demonstrate the artistic outlook and goals evident in impressionist paintings?)

5. Nationalism
Nationalism was an important element of the music of many composers in the 20th century. Discuss nationalism in conjunction with one or more composers and pieces.

6. Influence of folk songs, jazz and popular music
a. Investigate the influence of folk songs, jazz, and/or popular music on a particular composer, group of composers, artistic movement, etc. Some composers who are relevant in this context are Bartók, Kodály, Stravinsky, Milhaud, Vaughn Williams, Ives, Copland, and many others.

b. The impact of ethnomusicology on the compositions of a particular composer or school of composition (e.g., Cecil Sharp and his impact on British music).
7. Emulation of earlier composers and/or styles by composers of the 20th C
e.g., the impact of Bach on the music of Villa-Lobos
e.g., Demonstrate how the neoclassical works of a particular composer or related group of composers both emulate and update Baroque or Classical music.

8. The use of quotations in compositions
A number of 20th-century composers incorporated quotations of compositions (by earlier composers, by contemporary composers, and by themselves) in their own compositions. You could investigate the use of such quotations in the works of a single composer (WHAT quotations were used, HOW were they used and WHY were they used), the use of such quotations by a particular group of composers, or some other aspect of this phenomenon.

Some suggestions for finding and narrowing down a topic

1a. Browse through one or more of the following (or similar) books, looking for a composer or topic that seems interesting to you:
Wright/Simms textbook, chapters 63-83

Machlis, Joseph. Introduction to Contemporary Music. New York: Norton, 1979.
call number = Ml197.M11 1979
Morgan, Robert P. Twentieth-century Music: A History of Musical Style in Modern Europe and America. New York: Norton, 1991.
call number = ML197.M675 1990
Simms, Bryan. Music of the Twentieth Century: Style and Structure. New York: Schirmer Books, 1996.
call number = ML197.S585 1996
Weiss, Piero, and Richard Taruskin. Music in the Western World: A History in Documents. Belmont, CA: Thomson/Schirmer, 2008.
call number = ML160.M865 2008

1b. think about what music, artistic movements that impacted music, composers, or other relevant individuals you find interesting.

From your above search, make a list of names or terms. Next proceed to numbers 2 and 3.

2. To find general information about topics you find interesting, and to help you further narrow down or solidify your topic, consult the articles in the Grove Dictionary about the names or terms on your list. Grove Music Online can be found in the Articles and Databases section on the Biola library website. A hard copy of the Grove Dictionary can be found in the reference section of the library.

3. Look at the following to help you further narrow down or solidify your topic and to determine if you will be able to find enough good sources:
a. Worldcat
b. RILM
c. JSTOR
d. Proquest research library
e. Proquest dissertations and theses

4. I will be happy to meet with you to brainstorm paper topics or to discuss the viability of a paper topic. However, make an appointment only AFTER you have tried numbers 1a and 1b above, so that you have at least a general idea of some topics or composers you find interesting.

Some general suggestions and advice:
1. START EARLY so that you will have ample time to decide on a topic, acquire your sources (some of which you may have to acquire through interlibrary loan), read and digest the information in your sources, compile the information you need from each one to address the topic of discussion you have chosen, edit carefully, and put together any musical examples, tables and figures you need.

2. DO NOT use any of the following, as they are NOT ACCEPTABLE resources for an
academic paper:
a. Wikipedia. Wikipedia is quite helpful for learning about topics. But it is NOT an appropriate source for an academic paper.
b. Blogs, on-line reviews, other websites. Unless you are writing a paper evaluating current popular opinion about a topic, do not use blogs. The same goes for on-line reviews. In general, avoid websites, unless there is a good reason to think a particular website is an excellent source of reliable information (e.g., it is the website of a recognized expert on the topic you are discussing).

3. Ask for help, suggestions and advice throughout the writing process. I am happy to meet with you to help you narrow down a research topic, to discuss the viability of a paper topic or how to go about doing research, or to help solve any problems you might encounter.

Some suggestions to help in the process of writing the paper:
1. When taking notes from your sources, MAKE SURE to distinguish between quotations of a source and paraphrases or summaries of a source. Either quote the source directly in your notes (to be used as a quotation in your paper, or so that as you are writing the paper you know precisely what your source said so that you can use the idea but restate it in your own words) OR take the time as you are taking notes to digest the information completely, set aside the source, and then restate the relevant portion of it in your own words. Either way, make sure you clearly note the title and page number of your source so you can correctly cite it in your paper. If you do not do so, you could very easily inadvertently plagiarize a source (either by unknowingly quoting it directly without indicating it is a quotation, or by unknowingly paraphrasing too closely) or cite it incorrectly.

2. Make sure you have a thesis statement, and make sure the body of your paper works to support your thesis statement. In other words, you should have a clearly-defined point you are trying to make, and all the information in the body of your paper should support that point in some way.

3. Use the resources of the writing center. In addition, provided you give me ample time, I am happy to look over an outline or a draft and give advice. But do not approach me for the first time the day before the paper is due for such help.

4. Edit thoroughly. Starting early will give you ample time to edit well. Poor editing (leading to poor syntax, incorrect grammar or incorrect spelling) will result in a lower grade on the assignment.
Rely on your mind, not solely on spell-check or grammar-check, to find errors. Read through the paper to make sure it makes sense, flows well, and that you support your thesis statement while avoiding random, extraneous information. Have a friend read through the paper with these same things in mind. Reading the paper out loud can be especially helpful.
