AP submission Draft 2- HCR 593

Applied Project Paper Draft Submission #2 (50 pts)
  • Due Apr 5 by 11:59pm
  • Points 50
  • Submitting a file upload
NOTE: Instructors will return any draft #2 submission with a clear warning if there is no evidence of advancement from the previous draft submission. Any and all corrections or clarification requirements requested in the last submission draft must be addressed clearly. (Note that the word “addressed” here can mean 1. suggestion taken or 2. suggestion not taken but a new direction taken to satisfy the instructor’s comment). In other words, it is critical that there has been enough progress that the final submission is now in sight with this version submission. This is critical for your opportunity to pass this class on time. 
Submission: See rubric
 (this version includes sections in Results and Discussion with reminders on inclusion requirements however please use the modules to verify you have included all necessary points that each chapter requires).
A complete draft of the project, which requires Chapters 1 through 5, must be included.
The focus of this review is on Results and Discussion with a review of the updates to Methods and alignment throughout.
The point of this review is as follows (to verify…):
  • Feedback incorporated and addressed for the Methods section
  • Table of Contents present
  • Abstract present (if not yet completed with full results and impact)
  • Results present
    • The aim statement is presented at the start of the chapter
    • Results at this stage are present and complete or almost complete (DIRECT answer to the research questions).
      • If literature review as a method: clear what information was extracted from the literature that met inclusion/exclusion
      • articles/regulations that met inclusion/exclusion are in a table and presented to the reader
      • use appendices as needed for applied projects such as SOPs, Regulation comparison etc.
      • If the survey, responses to the survey along with the reason each question is applicable to the research questions to answer the aim/thesis.
    • At least one (usually more) visual (i.e., table/figures, etc). is required in the final submission.
  • Discussion, if not also the conclusion is present
    • The discussion starts with the Aim Statement (again) and whether the aim was met and how.]
    • Includes a discussion of how your results “fit” into the literature that you reviewed in the background.
      • This would not be possible without in-text citations. That is a critical part of this process.
      • You must compare and contrast your findings with others. This is required.
      • Limitations of your research (all research has them)
      • Future direction – what should future researchers do to push this research forward for the benefit of society or industry (or academia)?
All tenses will have to be changed to past tense before final project submissions. 
This review is NOT:
  • focused on the Introduction and Background,
    • Although alignment is verified between each chapter with your clear aim statement (at the start),
  • focus on APA formatting, as this will be incorporated into the first and final review. It is up to the student researcher to verify APA formatting.
Have questions? Please ask and take the initiative and responsibility for your success.

Scientific Poster- HCR 593

Scientific Poster- HCR 593

Module 12: Scientific Poster
Posters are a special type of presentation. When well designed, they are not simply journal papers pasted onto boards. Nor are they mounted sets of presentation slides. Rather, posters, when effectively designed, are something in between. Research posters summarize information or research concisely and attractively to help publicize it and generate discussion.
For a poster to communicate the work, the poster first has to orient an audience that is not seated, but that is standing. Often the audience has distractions of noise and movement from other people. Given those distractions, a journal article tacked onto a board fails as an effective poster because the audience cannot concentrate for a time long enough to read through the paper. In fact, given the distractions that the audience faces, many in the audience will not even bother trying to read a journal article tacked onto a board. The poster is usually a mixture of a brief text mixed with tables, graphs, pictures, and other presentation formats.
PowerPoint Presentation:
 Poster Format
1. First, the title of an effective poster should quickly orient the audience. ​
Here are some guidelines for poster titles:
1. Make the title the most prominent block of text on the poster (either center or left justify at the top).
2. Do not typeset the title in all capital letters (such text is difficult to read).
3. Use small words such as of, from, with, to, the, a, an, and and to separate details in the title.
While phrase titles are most common, some researchers effectively use sentence titles for posters that present one main result. In such titles, state the result in the title and capitalize the words as you would in a sentence. Because the sentence title is a stand-alone, as opposed to being part of a paragraph, the period is generally dropped.
2. Second, the poster should quickly orient the audience to the subject and purpose
 One good test is whether the audience recognizes the subject and purpose within 20 seconds of seeing the poster. Usually, a poster accomplishes this goal with a well-crafted title and with supporting images. Also, make sure that the type is large enough to be read and that enough contrast exist between the color of the type and poster’s background.
3. Third, the specific sections such as the results should be easy to locate on the poster
Once readers recognize what the work is, they decide how much energy to invest into the poster. For instance, many will read only the motivation for the work, the objectives (or goals) of the work, and then the final results. Others, who have a deep interest in the topic, will try to read the poster from beginning to end. Given these different approaches to reading posters, another characteristic of an effective poster is that specific sections are easy to locate.
4. Fourth, you should design the individual sections of a poster so that they can be quickly read.
Given the distractions that occur while reading posters in a symposium, the poster should not contain large blocks of text. Neither should the poster contain long sentences. If possible, the sections should rely on images: photographs, drawings, and graphs.
5. What software can I use to make a poster? Usually MS PowerPoint
Note:
  • Template choice is up to you
  • Single slide to contain your work
  • These are not to be printed – strictly digital for submission
A sample of a well designed poster
Layout of a typical poster.
A sample of a poorly designed poster
  • Posters rarely need an abstract
  • Text is dissolving into background
  • Graphs are too small and too many
  • Captions not aligned  with image
  • Too much wording – crammed into space

Power Point group Assignment 4 HCR577

PowerPoint & Summary – Compare & Contrast assigned country with US regulations (CTD)  Germany – Group 4
  • Due Apr 1 by 11:59pm
  • Points 100
  • Submitting a file upload
  • Available Mar 16 at 12am – Apr 6 at 11:59pm
Scenario
Your team is responsible for determining the country most suitable for marketing your product.  You and your team are responsible to inform your company of your submission timeline and market strategy.  You do this by preparing a presentation to senior leadership.  Your presentation includes the countries that you will target to include the US and your selected country.  You will use the drug you selected to build your CTD (select one of the drugs from a member of your team).  Once you have identified your drug you will create a fictitious name, do not use the marketed name of the drug.  Essentially, each group will present a different drug and different country. The market for your drug is highly competitive, therefore, including the timelines for submission is critical. Generally, a submission requires 9 to 12 months to prepare; data from drug studies often are available 3 months prior to submission.  The planned date of submission to your country is December 2027.
Teams
Please work together in the following teams to compare your assigned country with the US.
Please combine your efforts for 1 submission.
Instructions
Provide a list of 3-5 topics / questions about which the health authority from your assigned country (or the FDA) can request additional information.  These topics should be represented in a slide in your PowerPoint presentation.
Explain how you would manage this information request.  The questions usually arise from product risks, such as efficacy, container closure, stability studies, degradation of drug product, human factors, and whether the drug delivery system is difficult to use (i.e., inhaler, syringe, vial with stopper, IV, etc).
Create a Power Point presentation to persuade your company’s leadership team to select your assigned country over the U.S.  Explain how and why this approach would be successful.  Submit 1 presentation per team
Write a one-page summary of the things you covered in your presentation.  APA style required.  Submit 1 summary paper per team.  SUMMARIES THAT DO NOT MEET THE 1 PAGE REQUIREMENT – TOO SHORT TOO LONG WILL BE CONSIDERED INCOMPLETE AND POINTS WILL REFLECT THIS.

SOWK 602 Assignment

ReadingDiscussion Board Social Pioneer Reading
Purpose
This discussion examines African American leadership as an empowerment tradition within the history of social welfare. Drawing on Carlton-LaNey’s work, students will explore how leadership, resistance, and community organizing by African Americans have shaped social work values, practice approaches, and advocacy efforts—particularly within marginalized and urban communities.

Post Instructions
After completing the reading, respond to all four (4) questions below in a single, cohesive post.

Your initial post should:

Demonstrate clear engagement with Carlton-LaNey’s text

Incorporate specific concepts, examples, or language from the reading

Reflect critical thinking and application to contemporary social work practice

Be written in a professional, scholarly tone

Discussion Questions
Leadership as an Empowerment Tradition
According to Carlton-LaNey, how has African American leadership historically functioned as an empowerment tradition within social welfare? What distinguishes this leadership tradition from dominant or Eurocentric models of leadership?

Challenging Dominant Narratives
Carlton-LaNey highlights the marginalization of African American leaders in traditional social welfare histories. Why is it important for social workers to critically examine whose leadership is recognized and whose is omitted? How does this omission shape contemporary practice, policy, or education?

Connections to Social Work Values and Ethics
How do the leadership traditions described by Carlton-LaNey align with core social work values such as social justice, dignity and worth of the person, self-determination, and advocacy? Provide at least one example from the reading.

Application to Contemporary Practice
Identify a current social work context (e.g., community organizing, child welfare, education, mental health, policy advocacy, urban practice).

How can African American leadership traditions inform empowerment-based practice in this context today?

What responsibilities do social workers have to recognize, support, and collaborate with community-based leaders?

After posting your initial response, you are required to respond to at least one (1) classmates.

Peer responses should:

Reference a specific point made by your classmate

Extend the discussion by connecting to Carlton-LaNey’s arguments or concepts

Ask a thoughtful question or offer an additional perspective

Maintain respect and professional tone

Responses that simply state agreement (e.g., “I agree”) without elaboration will not receive full credit.
