Grading Rubric for Forum DiscussionsundefinedundefinedWrite a solid paragraph of about 250 words for your post. Your post must demonstrate critical thinking about families pondering materials and information from that week. undefinedThink about how you can contribute some substantive arguments to the discussion that goes beyond what has been already said and stated in the class materials – contextualizing and critically evaluating the issues. Consider questions like: Why are we seeing particular patterns? What could be contributing to the issues beyond the information presented in the readings and videos? What are the consequences of the observed patterns/phenomena? What does it mean for particular forms or groups of families? What does this mean for certain groups in our society? Can something be done about this – could policies or programs improve the issues? What did the authors (readings, videos) fail to consider? Etc., undefined Questions like these demonstrate critical thinking and will most definitively add substance to your posts. undefinedYour post should be clear and well thought out. undefinedYou can use examples from your personal experience to illustrate your thoughts but do not just recount things you heard or experienced, rather apply those experiences to make your arguments. undefinedResponses must also be substantive. Please do not just repeat what someone else stated, just cheer on your fellow students, or just add a personal anecdote. Do all of the above if you wish but add some substantive arguments to gain maximum points. undefinedPointsundefined1. Forum post.

As a doctoral student, you are required to be thorough and exhaustive in your search for academic resources. This requirement not only exists so you can avoid duplicating existing research, it also empowers and prepares you to contribute to the thinking and practice in your chosen area of interest. One key to achieving this goal is to develop proficiency in literature searches.Walden Library has numerous research databases. Some may be more useful than others for finding articles related to your topic. Before you begin to search for articles, it is important to identify the databases that will be most useful. It also is important to use the best searching strategies. If you search using keywords that are too broad, you may be inundated with useless information. If you search using keywords that are too specific, you may miss articles that are pertinent to your topic. It is key, therefore, to be both efficient and thorough in your search process.In this Discussion, you will consider your search process, the keywords and databases you used, and how the articles you found inform your ongoing research.To prepare for this Discussion:Using the Walden University library, find five articles based on the topic of Learning in Adults as it applies to your specific doctoral program area (see Week 1). Take note of the key words and terms you used.Review Chapter 3, “Selecting a Topic and Identifying Literature for Review” (pp. 17–28), in the Galvan text.Review Chapter 9, “Dissertation Chapter 2: Literature Review” (pp. 84–88), in the Stadtlander text.As needed, review Learning Resources provided this week related to the literature search process, including searching strategies, library tips, navigating library databases, and evaluating resources.By Day 3Post by Day 3 a response in which you do the following:Identify the keywords and databases you used to find your five articles. Provide full references for the five articles you selected.Explain why you chose these articles and how they relate to your program area.

Week 14 Discussion: Anxiety DisordersL.P., age 23, is a white woman who graduated from college last year. She began working as an accountant 1 month after graduating. Approximately 2 months ago, she moved into a two-bedroom apartment with another woman who works at the same accounting firm. She states that her roommate recommended that she see a doctor to find out if she has anemia or “some sort of fatigue syndrome.” She states that she has felt “restless” and “on edge” for most of the past 9 months. She becomes easily fatigued and irritable and has difficulty concentrating and falling asleep. She states that sometimes her mind “just goes blank,” and she is worried that her work performance is no longer excellent. She reports that all her life she had good grades in school and was very successful in everything she attempted. Although she has been “a worrier from the day I was born,” now she worries more than she ever has and feels nervous “all the time.” L.P. reports that she has a good relationship with her boyfriend, but they do not get to see each other very often because he is attending graduate school 100 miles away. She reports having a satisfying sexual relationship with him. She denies having any problems with relationships with her parents, roommate, or peers. She denies having any financial worries unless she is fired from her job for poor work performance. She reports that she has always been healthy and has taken good care of herself. The only medication she takes is birth control pills, which she has taken for the past 4 years without any adverse effects.Diagnosis: Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questions:1.

Assignment Content
Competency – Determine the historical impact of art on modern culture, society, and the workplace
Scenario 
Your local library has decided to hang artwork in its lobby. You volunteer at the library and heard that the director of the library plans to go to the mall and buy artwork off the shelf in a home decor store to decorate the walls.
You are outraged, and feel that the library presents an ideal space for more meaningful public displays. After all, your town has such a rich and interesting history, and there are some artists and craftspeople living in the area. You decide to approach the City Council Chair to voice your concerns, but he informs you that the library is on a tight budget, and he doesn’t see the need to spend too much of tax payers money on “decorations.”
You now plan to attend the next City Council meeting to convince the town to do more with the exhibiting space at the library, and that it doesn’t have to be expensive if the displays are cultivated from regional resources.
