Safety and effectiveness of alternative and complementary medicine for the treatment of specific illnesses

Discuss the safety and effectiveness of alternative and complementary medicine for the treatment of specific illnesses such as cancer, diabetes, and hypertension. Share your opinions about holistic and allopathic care. Would you have any conflicts or concerns supporting a patient who chooses holistic or allopathic medicine?

Sports organization

 

Choose a different sports organization from the one you chose for your final project, and describe three appropriate market segments that this organization should be marketing to and why. Search for articles related to market segmentation to support your discussion. After choosing those markets, create a ticket plan that would make sense for each of those segments. (See Figure 5.1 on page 129 of your textbook; think usage segmentation.) Possibly consider elements that may impact ticketing such as dynamic ticket pricing, health safety and protocols?

 

Literacy instruction in the PK-3 classroom

Reflect on this week’s readings and discuss the aspects that interest you most, and that you believe will be most beneficial in your PK-3 classroom. Are any
of these concepts or activities practiced in the classroom where you are conducting your field experiences? If so, which ones are helping ELLs learn English?
Please cite your sources.
Part 2

Assignment Scenario
You are overseeing a mentoring program for youth who have been identified as being at risk and you want to complete a program evaluation to measure the impact on youth who participate. You also want to consider whether variables such as sex and race/ethnicity factor into the results.

Assignment Instructions
In the Unit 2 Dataset 1 given in the resources, find baseline data for the youth who have entered the program. From this data, identify all of the variables represented and input the data into an Excel file. Save the file as a “comma separated values” (.csv) file and open this .csv file in JASP. Make sure to modify the data types of each variable to the correct scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, or scale).

Refer to the JASP Tutorial Video: Modifying Data Types (Nominal, Ordinal Scale), given in the resources.

Save your .jasp file and upload it for grading.

Note that you are not completing any analysis at this point in time. You are simply practicing entering data in Excel and saving it in a format that is then opened in JASP. You need to demonstrate the ability to identify the correct level of measurement for each variable.

Unit 2 Dataset 1

The Sunville Youth Services Organization developed a mentoring program for youth, ages 15–19, currently enrolled in high school and at risk of dropping out of school. The program manager believes that giving the youth a mentor will influence the youth’s grades, attendance, self-esteem, and behavior at home. Therefore, the program manager is collecting data to track outcomes associated with this program.

Prior to entering the mentoring program, the following data were collected about the youth participants:

• Current number of high school credits and whether the youth is on track to graduate (22 credits is required to graduate).• Current grade point average (GPA) on a 4-point scale.• A self-esteem measurement completed by the youth. This scale ranged from 1–30, with 30 indicating a high level of self-esteem.• Attendance records from school that represent the average number of days the youth missed each week over the past 30 school days.• A parent report on the youth’s behavior. The measurement asks: “How would you rate your child’s behavior on a scale of 1–10? 10 indicates the child is cooperative all of the time and 1 indicates that the child rarely is cooperative with the household rules.”

Ways in which qualitative and quantitative research differ.

 

Identify three ways in which qualitative and quantitative research differ. After reviewing these approaches, which is a good fit for your study and why? Be sure to include your research question in your response. Based on the methodological approach for your study, how will you ensure that your approach is culturally sensitive?

 

PESTLE dimensions.

 

Think about your workplace, organization, or industry; if you are not currently working, think about previous employment or a job that you are aiming for. The broader your perspective, the more likely you are to take into account the range of factors that you have been considering in this section.

Identify at least two factors within EACH of the six PESTLE dimensions.
