/in /by

Following the workshop protocol detailed in this module, write personal letters to the authors in your peer workshop group. The letter should be 250–500 words (approximately one page).1. It’s important that you start your letter with what’s working well in the story. In the first paragraph, quote a specific moment that has stayed with you, and explain why, in terms of craft. Giving specific praise is important because authors need to discover their strengths, so that they can nurture those aspects of their writing.2. Next, give the author your brief synopsis of the story. Remember that a story should have a beginning, middle, and end. If there is something missing (like a clear conflict), then indicate the problem.3. In the next few paragraphs, talk about how the author could improve the story. Point out places where you struggled with the story or where you saw revision opportunities. Use the following list of questions to help you figure out what you want to say in each of your peer letters: Does the author start the story in medias res? A story depends on tension, which is usually the product of conflict. Is the conflict compelling? Are the stakes high? If there is no conflict, where do you suggest the author create conflict or increase the stakes for the protagonist? Who is the story about? Who is the protagonist and who are the other characters? What does each character want? How is the protagonist different at the end of the story from the beginning? What has changed for them? Remember, a narrative chronicles change. Does the tension lead to a crisis or turning point and resolution? If not, what are some possibilities? Does the story attempt to cover too much ground? How could the author focus the story and narrow the scope? Is the author using sensory details and active verbs? Give an example of your favorite description. Give a suggestion of something you would like “shown, not told.” You don’t need to answer every one of these questions. Instead, choose a few and go into detail.4. Finally, end your letter with questions for the author. The questions should provoke the author as they begin to revise. Don’t ask a question out of curiosity, such as “Where did you come up with this idea?” because that won’t help the author. Think of useful questions that let the author know what you found confusing or what you’d like to see developed.While it’s also helpful to mention specific grammar or spelling errors, the bulk of your letter should focus on the elements of craft that we’ve been discussing so far this semester.You should post critique letters for two peers. I will post that later

Unit 2 – Individual Project 
Unit:  Intelligence Collection Challenges
Assignment Description
Most people attribute the creation of law enforcement and intelligence fusion centers with the events of September 11, 2001. However, from 1999–2002, a series of major events primed policy makers within the U.S. intelligence and law enforcement communities to formalize cross-community information sharing activities and ultimately to create an effective law enforcement and intelligence information-sharing environment. 
As the new millennium was set to begin, Ahmed Ressam (the Millennium Bomber) was stopped as he exited a ferry crossing from Canada to a remote U.S. entry point. The contents found in his trunk would have allowed Ressam to achieve his goal of setting off an explosive device at the Los Angeles airport. This event, which occurred just two years before 9/11, led to meetings regarding the creation of some type of fusion and/or sharing process. Further discussions would advance this idea in the fall of 2002. In October of 2002, unprovoked shootings in the Washington DC metropolitan area resulted in 10 people dead and three critically injured. At the outset of these shootings, a massive police investigation across local and federal levels developed to apprehend the so-named Beltway Sniper. Local and federal law enforcement officials in the East attempted to fit the pieces together and analyze messages left by the killer or killers. This sniper case, combined with previous lessons learned, culminated in the realization for the need to formalize a multijurisdictional information-sharing activity. Members from across the law enforcement community—combining with elements of the homeland security, defense, and intelligence communities—set about institutionalizing this effort as quickly as possible.
Assignment Guidelines

For this assignment, you are a      member of the law enforcement community tasked with institutionalizing      this effort.
Address the following in 2-3 pages:

What are the challenges for       federal, state, and local law enforcement in collecting intelligence       information as it pertained to these two events? Explain.
What lessons were learned       from these events with regards to intelligence collection and       information-sharing? Explain.
What recommendations can you       offer on how to create an information-sharing environment? Explain.

How would your        recommendation effectively formalize multijurisdictional        information sharing to counter some of existing challenges?        Explain.

In this assignment, you will have an opportunity to put theory into practice by creating examples of various exercises for use in the classroom. In this Individual Project, you will demonstrate a sound understanding of behaviorism and how instructional strategies can be used to enhance instruction and the overall learning process. Knowing and understanding theory allows us to better understand how people learn, which helps drive the decision-making process regarding instructional design, planning, and delivery. Educational professionals can use these frameworks to make more informed decisions about applying the most effective instructional practices.
Part One
Create an example of an exercise that a teacher might carry out during a 20-minute segment of a 7th-grade social studies class. Complete the following:

Begin by writing a terminal performance objective for the segment. Choose your own topic, issue, or opportunity as the basis of your design. The exercise should clearly call for the students and teacher to work in a behaviorist mode. Both learners and the teacher should be active in their participation during the segment. Create an assessment for the exercise.
After you have described the exercise, how it will be conducted, and any materials that would be associated with it, explain how it fits the characteristics of behaviorism and why you think this exercise and this approach would be appropriate for the class.

Part Two
Create an example of an exercise that a trainer might carry out during a 30-minute segment of a 4-hour supervisory leadership course. Complete the following:

Begin by writing a terminal performance objective for the segment. Choose an appropriate topic, issue, or opportunity as the basis for construction of the exercise. The exercise should clearly use principles of behaviorism as its theoretical structure, and it should illustrate a behaviorist approach in learning and instruction. The exercise should engage both the learners and the instructor in active participation. Create an assessment for the exercise.
Write an explanation of the exercise to discuss the ways in which it illustrates behaviorism, and discuss which behavioral principles or characteristics are used as the basis for design. Explain how the exercise would be appropriate for the topic, need, or opportunity for which it is intended.

Part Three
Discuss the ways in which intellipath illustrates specific characteristics and principles of behaviorism. Complete the following:

Consider the advantages and limitations of such an approach, and offer at least 1 way in which limitations can be overcome by the learner.

Discussion: Defining the Future of Healthcare Policy in Practice
Access to care, cost of care, and quality of care: what do they have in common?  As you’ve learned, they are dimensions of performance used to assess a healthcare system (e.g., addressed in Assignment #2), which also makes them an important policy issue. In your Learning Resources this week, Barr (2016) states that “the conundrum of U.S. health care [is] that all three [exist] simultaneously and that attempting to remedy one [will] inevitably affect the others” (p. 355). For example, if we try to control costs, then we either have to decrease access to care and/or compromise quality of care. With this in mind, what do you think is the best course for healthcare policy to follow in the future?
You have spent much of the last five weeks examining how others have created the current state of healthcare policy. In this final Discussion, you will assume the role of policy maker and create a policy that addresses access to care, quality of care, or cost of care. Recall that some of the performance dimensions have multiple indicators. For example, patient safety is an indicator of quality of care. Similarly, having medical insurance is an indicator of access to care.
To prepare for this Discussion:

Review this week’s Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the Learning Resources that discuss trends in healthcare policy and/or practice.
Review Healthcare policy in the United States (Ballotpedia, n.d.) in Week 1 Learning Resources.
Select a specific setting (e.g., any healthcare setting, workplace, prison, etc.)
Create a healthcare policy that you would like to put into place within this setting (e.g., providing health insurance to all employees, offering health screenings to prisoners).
Frame the policy using at least one dimension of performance (or an indicator, such as patient safety) and be sure the policy is realistic and complies with current law.

By Day 4
Post a comprehensive response to the following:

Summarize your healthcare policy. Be sure to indicate which dimension(s) of performance or indicator(s) was used to frame your policy.
What is the setting where the policy will be implemented? Why did you choose this setting?
Who are the stakeholders of the policy? What role do they each play?
What are the goals of your policy? In other words, what are you hoping the policy will do or accomplish?
Who will be affected by the policy?
What are some barriers that you may encounter during development and implementation?

NOTE: Just write the summary of the literature review. But Write a paper summarizing the literature on this current legal and/or ethical issue and describe how your interview results relate to your findings from the literature reviewSUMMARY OF INTERVIEW FINDINGS (for your reference) Our group conducted an interview with Patricia. Patricia and I discussed the inconvenience of telemedicine and how it also provides a gateway to security and privacy issues such as patient privacy confidentiality, and HIPAA violations. Patricia suggested that all protocols that are following during in-person appointments should be followed during telemedicine appointments as well. Doors should be closed when doing telemedicine and documentation must be adequate and properly entered into the EHR. There is always a concern for hacking and breaching of data so firewall protection and security must be monitored. Stanford has their own portal for telemedicine visits. Since Patricia works for a large health care system like Stanford, things are constantly changing. She keeps up to date with new laws and regulations to ensure compliance by attending seminars and attending hospital leadership meetings. Apart from legal concerns, other shortcomings of telemedicine are the decline in quality of care. Some patients rather not schedule a telemedicine visit because they feel that they will not receive the same level of care. Not all health concerns can be assessed online. This directly affects the patient-physician relationship. Since telemedicine alters the context of the traditional face-to-face physician-patient trust-based relationship, Patients may not want to continue care with their physician if they feel that they aren’t getting the proper medical attention that an in-person visit would entail. They may not have faith and confidence in the healthcare system. It is crucial to educate patients who are concerned about the effectiveness of telemedicine services and prefers the traditional way of in-person visits by explaining policies and protocols and being empathetic with patients to provide quality care.
