Chapters 14 and 15 in your text cover legal and ethical issues in social media. Pick a court case discussed in either chapter, and research it a little further. Write a brief overview of the court case, which legal issues were brought into question (which laws were considered broken), and if you think the case was actually in violation of privacy or defamation laws. Please explain why or why you did not agree with the court ruling.
Your paper should be between 600 and 900 words and written in APA format. List your sources in an APA reference list at the end of your paper.
Important note: Citing a court case in the proper format is key. United States v. Paramount (1948) is correct.

Now that you have explored the Web sites of a number of professional associations and foundations that support the work of higher education professionals, share your findings with your colleagues and determine "what's on the agenda" of these organizations. In your Discussion this week, address the following questions:
Are there common themes that you see running through the issues and topics addressed by several associations? Are there some associations whose agenda seems to be very different from those of others? How do the agendas of these organizations overlap with the issues we've been investigating in this course so far? Are the associations working on issues that truly concern the majority of higher education professionals, and is their work likely to provide resources that will help us with our key challenges? Do you see any gaps?
topic is What's on the Agenda
The purpose of this assignment is to evaluate change management strategies and their impact on organizational outcomes and to effectively communicate a change plan.
Using the research gathered in the Topic 6 and 7 assignments, develop an organizational change plan and communicate it to relevant stakeholders in a bulleted executive summary (500-750 words) composed of the following sections: summary, introduction, method (if applicable), findings, conclusions, and recommendations. The executive summary must that address the following:
1. Need for change, role of management in change, and importance of change to stakeholders.
2. Change agents and their future role in the organization.
3. Identification of area for change and communication of this information from management to employees and change agents.
4. Identification of two proactive steps the organization needs to take today to avert potential change-related problems.
5. Identification and explanat
Select a community to study either a community where you live or work.
Utilize the Community Assessment Framework document to guide what constitutes valuable information to gather. Use Table 17.5 on page 383 of the textbook as your primary guide to follow, to include key assessment content, especially regarding place.
Look for characteristics that you feel define the client/community and the life surrounding it. Pay particular attention to the immediate surroundings of your identified community. Valuable information about the needs of the community can be assessed just by looking at the individuals in it!
An important component of the assessment is the impact of the communitys strengths and weaknesses upon individuals and families!
With the information gathered, type a 6-8 page document (APA format) that describes or tells a picture of your community.
Include such data as where your clinical site is located in the community, a descripti
Instructions
You are a lobbyist for an issue that you find important. For example, you would like to see the banning of smoking in federal buildings (Note: This policy has already been enacted.) You are going to make an informational pamphlet to highlight your points to prominent members of Congress. Research members of Congress that you will target in your lobbying. Explain why these members are critical to your goal. Make a plan of action and produce a pamphlet supporting your cause. Who will you be reaching out to? Why? Write a cover letter to a Congressional member and include your reasoning for reaching out to them in particular in the letter. Remember a lobbyist is only as good as the information they provide. A lobbyist who provides incomplete or unreliable information will soon be unemployed, or lose access to officials.

Asthma and Stepwise Management
Asthma is a respiratory disorder that affects children and adults. Advanced practice nurses often provide treatment to patients with these disorders. Sometimes patients require immediate treatment, making it essential that you recognize and distinguish minor asthma symptoms from serious, life-threatening ones. Since symptoms and attacks are often induced by a trigger, advanced practice nurses must also help patients identify their triggers and recommend appropriate management options. Like many other disorders, there are various approaches to treating and managing care for asthmatic patients depending on individual patient factors.

Write a 525- to 750-word paper that addresses the following for your chosen scenario:
Scenario- Applied Psychology:
o A large medical facility is experiencing too many missed appointments in its primary and specialty care clinics. The facility has noticed that not all patients respond well to reminder calls regarding follow-up appointments. Some patients do not answer calls and do not seem to respond to voice mail requesting they call the facility. The result is that many follow-up appointments are missed. Facility management have read articles that indicate people respond very well to text messages and would like to see which method provides the least amount of missed appointments. Missed appointments are tracked in the facility database on a monthly basis.
Clearly define the problem or issue you are addressing. Provide a brief background of any research you have found that might affect your research hypothesis.

1. What strategies will you use in your new role in health care to review and critique literature pertinent to your practice?
2. "Nobody likes change" is a frequent comment, but creating a culture that allows for new ways of knowing takes a unique set of leadership skills. As a leader, how would you create a culture of change?
Ms. Smith has a 4th grade student who is struggling with reading. She knows that he is struggling with decoding, but is not exactly sure about the exact areas that he is struggling.
Write a paragraph that discusses what Ms. Smith could do to identify his decoding areas of need and then discuss an instructional plan that Ms. Smith could use to support this student.
Your plan should talk about the type of instruction, reading programs, and instructional activities that would support the students decoding (word identification) needs.
***This should be about one paragraph - no more than two paragraphs.
