Development

A‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ssignment is Below: This is related to the development of format for interviewing candidates. Will send information to provide information on my study. I am open to get a general answers to the questions. provide a step-by-step description of your data collection methods. Include relevant information on gatekeepers (e.g., Institutional Review Board at the site, access to participants), consent, and protection of participant identity. You may have to provide multiple sections organized by the type of data (interview, observations, etc.) How will you recruit participants? (I plan on selecting a site that is already approved in a community I already work in.) Explain in detail how participants will volunteer to participate. (Participants will ‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌be asked to volunteer and they will have a chance to win a gift card or win a prize). It’s helpful to imagine that you are describing to someone how they could replicate your study step-by-step. How will you obtain informed consent from each participant? How will you protect participant identity? Will you remove any identifying information? Where will interviews take place? (The Interviews will take place at the place of employment) If you are conducting face-to-face interviews, describe the location of the interviews. If you are conducting email interviews, describe how the participants will provide their responses. How will you collect data (., tape record, transcription, online security)? How will you protect and store da‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ta?

Demonstrate knowledge of the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government

I‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌magine being so interested in American politics that you decide to do some independent research into the relationship between power and representation in these politically polarized times. As you are learning, knowing who exercises political power helps you understand how power is used and the interests that are represented. Where do you start looking for information? Since the three branches of government (legislative, executive, and judicial) make national policies, you decide to begin with the US Congress because it is the one institution of government where the people’s interests—theoretically—are represented. You choose to look into the makeup of Congress as the first step to understanding who is in power to see if they are representative of “the people.” To get you going, here is some data you can review to learn about the makeup of Congress. Take your time reviewing the link below: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2021/03/10/the-changing-face-of-congress/ (Links to an external site.). What you find may surprise you. Like the number of young people who are now serving or the improvements in the racial, ethnic, gender, and religious diversity of the Congress. The projected changes in the US population over the next 25 years indicate that even greater popula‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌tion diversification will occur (see the Census tables below). Instructions In a concise (250-300 words) post, answer the following questions utilizing course materials, concepts, and the information above: Make a logical argument about power and representation that is informed by the Pew Research article, the US 2020 Census information (see below), and the study of Congress this term. Answer the following questions: How do these demographic changes in the . population reflect the demographic make-up in Congress? Explain. How is the quality of representation affected? Would these congressional changes affect the political power of this more diverse population? Explain. After you have submitted your post, respond to TWO posts from your peers and offer a thoughtful response to what you have read. Each response should be 100-150 words. Use course materials and concepts in your answers, too. Attached are guidelines for good discussion responses for you to follow. Understand that the main intent of these discussions is to hold a dialogue. Kindly begin work on this discussion well in advance of the deadline to insure that your classmates are afforded ample time to respond to your posts. US Census Bureau 2020 Census Quick Facts

Literature Review Final Paper

I‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌NSTRUCTIONS You will write a literature review paper pertaining to your selected research question in Turabian Author-Date style: This assignment will provide feedback on writing the final literature review paper. The paper will include a title page, body of paper, appendix, and list of references and an abstract. • Literature Review: Final Paper Assignment–Write a final literature review paper of 15 to 20 pages which include sections from the previous two papers and an additional section that draws conclusions from your review of the literature. You will conclude with a discussion of how your research question fills a gap in current scholarship and the prospects of your question for your future research. Post this assignment by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of Module 7: Week 7. Provide at least 25 peer-reviewed articles, and at least one Scripture reference. GUIDELINES Keep these areas of focus in sight when writing the Literature Review Assignment • Focus on the research question—The centerpiece of this course is the Literature Review Assignment, and the centerpiece of the assignment is the research question, how existing scholarship informs that question, and where your research question fits in the bod‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌y of scholarship, past and present. • Focus on peer-reviewed research—The focus of this assignment is on peer-reviewed sources found primarily in academic journals. You need to find out where your research fits in the framework of existing scholarship. • Focus on the endgame—Provide a discussion of the literature that demonstrates the gap in existing research pertaining to your research question and how your research can fill that gap. • Focus on synthesis, not just analysis—With analysis, you will review each article and look at the different parts (research question, hypotheses, variables, findings, etc.); with synthesis, you will use those parts and organize them to discuss how the literature informs your research question. • Focus on organizing around concepts, not studies—Your organization for preparation for the literature review assignment is to review one article and then the next article. However, do not write the literature review that way. Rather, organize the major headings around the most important concepts related to your question, not around articles. As you organize your concepts, use the language of relationship and comparison/contrast to show the connections within the concepts ‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌and between the concepts.

Descriptive Statistics In Excel

D‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ue Date & Time Mar 2, 2022, 11:59 PM Status Upcoming Assessment Description Surveys are often used to gather public health information or data. The first step in analyzing the survey data is to conduct descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics help provide basic information about the sample group, such as the average age and average income. This information can then be analyzed to effectively measure and describe a population’s health status, behavior, and associated risk factors in relation to these variables. The purpose of this assignment is to use Excel to apply descriptive statistics in order to describe the sample who completed a health behavior survey. Use the “Health Behavior Data Set” and the “Descriptive Statistics in Excel Worksheet” to complete this assignment. Refer to the instructional videos in the topic resources as a guide. For this assignment: Use the “Data Analysis ToolPak” add-in and Pivot Tables to complete this assignment. Refer to the &qu‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ot;Data Analysis ToolPak” resource in the topic resources. Click on the link and select either Windows or Mac for instructions. The Microsoft Excel add-in will enable you to conduct descriptive statistics in Excel. Read the “Health Behavior Case History and Survey” document to familiarize yourself with the survey and its purpose. Open the “Health Behavior Data Set” in the Excel. Analyze the survey data and answer the questions in the “Descriptive Statistics in Excel Worksheet.” Submit the “Descriptive Statistics in Excel Worksheet” to the dropbox. APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected. This assignment uses a rubric.

Missional Engagement Plan

Unit 6 Missional Engagement Plan (Mastery Assignment)

For this final mastery assignment imagine that you are a freelance consultant for churches. A church has hired you to look at their setting and create a structured plan for their congregation to engage in missional practices. Your plan must implement the missional theories learned from this course (incorporating ideas from Hauerwas, Niebuhr, Newbigin, Hunter, and the Ott book). In addition, take into consideration the context of the church itself. You may select whatever church type/denomination. You may choose a church that you are already familiar, or one that is representative of the kind of church with which you hope to serve in the future. Perhaps you know of a real-life church that would be willing to allow you to create this plan and interview its leaders. The purpose of this mastery assignment is for you to produce a solid framework of a plan that can be used in your current or future ministry setting.

Include the following in your Missional Engagement Plan:
• The church and its setting:
o Demographics – The average age, family compositions, ethnicities, sexual orientations, socio-economic statuses, educational levels, etc. What other important details define the kind of congregation the church serves?
o Context – What is the geographical vicinity of the church? What is the denominational affiliation of the church? Are there any particular cultural details that need to be considered? Also describe the size and typical attendance patterns of its membership.
o Resources – What kind of resources does the church have? What is the church staff composition? What are the financial resources, volunteer resources, or facility resources already available?
o What impact does all this setting information have on the plan?
• Questions to ask church leaders:
o What would you like to know from church leaders? What would help you to know more about their hopes for missions in their church? What would they specifically like to see incorporated in their church as a result of the plan?
• The theological understanding of the missional approach that fits with that church’s particular context and setting:
o Utilize course readings and at least five additional scholarly sources with proper APA citations.
• Recommendations for specific actions the church should take to embrace the theological approach you describe.:
o What programs should the church pursue (i.e. food pantries, overseas mission trips, preschools, Alcoholics Anonymous groups, senior citizen lunches, men’s Bible study breakfasts, involvement in nonprofits, etc.)?
o Are there programs the church should stop supporting (such as the same examples listed above)?
o Explain how your plan takes into consideration the setting, context, theological framework, and resources of the church.

Your plan must have a clear introduction (with a clear purpose statement) and conclusion. It must be written and laid out professionally as though it will be submitted directly to the church leader who will read the recommendations to a church assembly meeting. Give your plan an effective title that provides the instructor (and the church leader) with a sense of the main subject matter of the plan.

Support your Missional Engagement Plan with at least five scholarly sources outside of the required course materials. Include scriiptural support where applicable and needed.
