Entrepreneurship

Each individual in the class is required to maintain a reflection journal throughout the course, to be turned in at the conclusion of the final module . The journal encompasses your scholarly reflection and learning for the entire course. You should use the journal to capture your thoughts, learning, reflections on the major course concepts as well as connections to other things you learn in your other courses, at work, and beyond.

Journals are a common tools in the world of creativity, design and innovation.  Entrepreneurs use journals to document new potential opportunities; inventors use journals to document when they came up with an original idea (useful in the patenting process); engineers use journals to work out complex technical details; and designers use journals to generate lots of ideas (as ideas feed off of one another); and successful project managers use journals as a management tool to generate “lessons learned” and “best practices” to help run future product development projects more effectively. You can tailor your journal to your own working style and capture what you like.  Don’t be afraid to include your individual thinking (both imagery and words) pertaining to your learning from the class

s. You may include pictures, models, stories, create mindmaps, or choose any other approach that works for you to capture your ideas, thoughts, and reflections.

This reflection journal is your opportunity to reflect deeply on the course materials. Please submit a 4 pages journal entry on what most struck you in this course. This is not a summary of the readings. Journaling about what you have learned will provide an opportunity for you to critically and personally engage the material, discover what resonates with you and construct what it means to you, using the classroom materials as a foundation. This may mean you concentrate on concepts that cut across the readings or may mean you focus on the one piece or idea that you found most compelling. You should pay particular attention to connecting theory with practice. Strong responses will grapple with issues on both an intellectual and practical level.

Homeland Midterm

Select a terrorist organization likely to conduct an attack  within the United States and complete an in-depth profile on the  organization you selected for this first part of a three part series of  papers. The same group you select will be used for your Midterm,  Progress, and Final paper.

For this midterm, complete an in-depth profile on the organization  selected for your project.  In 5-7 pages (double-spaced) provide a  narrative explaining the organization’s origins, ideology, goals &  objectives.  Include a discussion on the leadership, funding, and  capabilities such as physical bases or operating/support location(s),  personnel strengths, training programs, and communications methods.   Lastly, it would be helpful to provide a description of known and  suspected weapons/lethal agents and delivery methods, procedures used in  prior attacks, propaganda, surveillance methods, and significant  events/dates that may be used in attack planning. Use section headings  in your paper.

Note on the three paper assignment series:  The first paper  (the midterm) is about the group you select and basically provides a  historical perspective about the group. The second paper (the progress  assignment) is a red cell where you put yourself in the shoes of the  terrorist group by thinking like they would to determine how the U.S.  can do intelligence collection on the terrorist group.

For the final assignment, you will combine all that you wrote in the  first two papers into one seamless document and you will add at least  three recommendations you would provide to a Homeland Security policy  maker on how to counter your selected organization. Be sure to improve  your writing based on feedback you receive from the midterm and progress  assignment.

Make sure you read the instructions carefully and that you focus your paper on answering the assigned questions. This assignment is a research paper, not an opinion paper, so you need to use the class readings to support your thesis.  Make sure you use APA style in-text parenthetical citations at  the end of every sentence where you are quoting or paraphrasing  another’s ideas (or any information) that is not your own thoughts and  words, like this (Bergen, 2015, para 14). I highly recommend you use the  APUS writing guide based on the APA style which can be found in the  university library or at this link: APUS Style Guide for APA.  You are welcome to use supplementary sources to compliment the assigned  readings based upon your research, but make sure you use scholarly and  credible sources. See the APUS Library Homeland Security Program Guide for good sources, as well as the APUS Research Primer and the APUS Library Research FAQs. For formatting, the best option is to use the attached example paper as a template (for formatting purposes only).

Requirements:

  • Five-seven (5-7) pages of text, not including the Title or Reference pages
  • Written according to the APA style and format
  • Use Times New Roman 12 point font
  • 1 inch margins on all sides
  • Double space all text (no extra lines or spaces after a paragraph or section headings)

A respectable number of credible resources used, cited in the paper  as in-text citations, and included on the reference page. A good rule of  thumb is at least 2-3 scholarly sources per page of content.

This Midterm Assignment (the organizational profile) is due Sunday of  Week 3. The SSGS Assignment Rubric for 300-400 Level Classes will be  used to evaluate this assignment (attached).

Assessment

Essential (Primary) Hypertension (ICD10 I10): Given the symptoms and high blood pressure (156/92 mmhg), classified as stage 2. Once the organic cause of hypertension has been ruled out, such as renal, adrenal or thyroid, this diagnosis is confirmed.

Differential diagnosis:

Ø Renal artery stenosis (ICD10 I70.1)

Ø Chronic kidney disease (ICD10 I12.9)

Ø Hyperthyroidism(ICD10E05.90)

Plan

Diagnosis is based on the clinical evaluation through history, physical examination, and routine laboratory tests to assess risk factors, reveal identifiable causes and detect target-organ damage, including evidence of cardiovascular disease.

These basic laboratory tests are:

· CMP

· Complete blood count

· Lipid profile

· Thyroid-stimulating hormone

· Urinalysis

· Electrocardiogram

Ø Pharmacological treatment: 

The treatment of choice in this case would be:

Thiazide-like diuretic and/or a CCB

· Hydrochlorothiazide tab 25 mg, Initial dose: 25 mg orally once daily.

Ø Non-Pharmacologic treatment:

· Weight loss

· Healthy diet(DASH dietary pattern): Diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products with reduced content of saturated and trans l fat

· Reduced intake of dietary sodium: <1,500 mg/d is optimal goal but at least 1,000 mg/d reduction in most adults

· Enhanced intake of dietary potassium

· Regular physical activity (Aerobic): 90–150 min/wk

· Tobacco cessation

· Measures to release stress and effective coping mechanisms.

Education

· Provide with nutrition/dietary information.

· Daily blood pressure monitoringat home twice a day for 7 days, keep a record, bring the record on the next visit with her PCP

· Instruction about medication intake compliance.

· Education of possible complications such as stroke, heart attack, and other problems.

· Patient was educated on course of hypertension, as well as warning signs and symptoms, which could indicate the need to attend the E.R/U.C. Answered all pt. questions/concerns. Pt verbalizes understanding to all

Follow-ups/Referrals

· Evaluation with PCP in 1 weeks for managing blood pressure and to evaluate current hypotensive therapy. Urgent Care visit prn.

  2. From Smith & Redington, “Class Dismissed: Making the Case for the Study of Classist Micro aggressions”, consider your own experiences in higher education, in workplace settings, and/or in other parts of your life. What classist micro aggressions have you witnessed, whether directed at you or at another person? How did you understand them at the time? How do the ideas from this reading change that understanding? Can you think of any examples when you might have participated in a classist micro aggression against another person, even unintentionally?
  3. How does Schmidt’s description of the favoritism that advantages wealthy students  in some colleges’ admissions processes seem similar and/or different from the idea of affirmative action for poor students or students of color?
  4. What are some of the governmental policies described by Oliver & Shapiro that contributed to and increased the racial disparities in wealth, between Whites and Blacks? What are some of the legacies and consequences of this racial disparity in wealth today?
  5. Watch Juno Mac’s TED Talk(video in module) and/or read her chapter –The Laws That Sex Workers Really Want. Juno Mac talks about sex work as a form of work. How are you affected by viewing and hearing her presentation? How is this similar or different from the ways you’ve been accustomed to thinking about sex work? What issues are illuminated differently by looking at sex work through the lens of labor?
  6. Consider assumptions that you may have heard, or that you may hold, about why people are incarcerated. How does the history explored in Benins’s article change your understanding of the social and economic causes of incarceration as a phenomenon?
