Learn how to effectively plan, design, develop, and test an original program of your choosing. This program is your choice and it can be as complex as you wish. The goal is to start with an idea for your program and then step through the process of most phases of the development lifecycle to turn your idea into an actual program. This includes planning out the algorithm using pseudocode, coding your program using everything you learned from Units 1-3, and finally testing and debugging your program to make sure it fulfills your intended purpose. Being able to create your own program can be beneficial in any career field. Anything that can be programmed or automated in any industry could make your work a lot easier. Even as a hobby, it can give you a reference point to have a better understanding of how to deal with common issues. Using basic Python to automate menial tasks can save you time and money! Whether you were in this class to learn programming at a professional level or if it’s just for fun, you will benefit from learning coding as a foundation of your technical skills.

Foundational Theories of Human Development Paper
Write a (4–5) three- to five-page paper (excluding APA title page and reference pages) comparing Freud, Mahler, Adler, and Erikson. Compare and contrast the developmental models of Freud and Erikson, and then compare and contrast the developmental theories of Adler and Mahler. Are there any similarities between all of them? Be sure to also address the following:
• Compare and Contrast Freud & Erikson.
• Compare and Contrast Adler & Mahler.
Similarities of all listed above
There should be:
• A brief description of each theory. Which perspective appeals to you more, and why?
• What are some ways the Adlerian approach can be applied to group counseling? What are some advantages of using a group format with this approach?
• What concepts from these psychoanalytic approaches do you see as being potentially useful in your work as a nurse psychotherapist? Describe why.
• Why should the nurse psychotherapist understand developmental theories for application in clinical practice?
The Roots Of Organizational Behavior
Organizational Behavior (OB) is an applied behavioral science based upon the combination of four key behavioral disciplines: psychology, sociology, anthropology, and social psychology. Research and investigate each of the major behavioral science disciplines, and identify their impact on the field of OB.
Discuss the following:
Briefly define the behavioral science disciplines’ roots (history, foundation, model, and application).
Determine and explain which behavioral science disciplines’ roots currently have the most influence on the field of OB.
Select an organization to examine for the impact of behavioral science disciplines.
Determine which behavioral science disciplines’ roots currently have the most influence on the organization you selected, and specifically discuss the following:
Teamwork
Attitudes toward work
Work-related stress
Productivity
Provide specific examples of that organization’s culture when evaluating the influence of those behavioral science disciplines’ roots.

The ability to dissect a script or story
Good story creators are hard to find. The ability to dissect a script or story, easily identify the relevant information, and see problems, plot holes, or character flaws is not something that comes easy. That’s why it’s important, as you are in beginning this process for your project, to analyze an existing script.
Additionally, you should find at least one major issue with the script (plot hole, character flaw, etc), and offer two solutions or options as to how that issue or problem can be fixed.
