Research design: qualitative or quantitative

 

 

Explain why you selected this design. Within each design indicate your method—such as ethnography or grounded theory for qualitative research or pre-posttest experimental/ quasiexperimental design for quantitative research. Why did you select this method to address your research questions?
Participants: Who will they be? How many? How did you sample these participants? (ie: purposeful, random etc…) What is the setting in which your data will be collected?
-9 students in VPK class, qualitative research

Data collection: What methods will you use to collect data? Why did you select these methods? How will you try to ensure validity and reliability of the data. Cite Creswell for specific validity strategies.
Data analysis: How do you plan on analyzing your data? Will you use qualitative methods—such as content analysis or grounded theory coding? Will you use statistical methods, such as t-tests, mean comparison?
Because you do not have extensive background in data analysis procedures, you may hypothesize your methods and/or ask me for help.

“Clinical Field Experience A”

 

Deliver the literacy skills lesson you developed with your mentor teacher in “Clinical Field Experience A” to the group of students for whom it was designed. During instruction, informally assess the students, identifying those who are grasping the information and those who would benefit from additional intervention.

Collaborate with the mentor teacher to develop 2-3 interventions based on your informal assessment data to support one or more students’ continued skill development. Detail at least one intervention that can be incorporated in the inclusive classroom and at least one intervention to be utilized at home. Describe the roles of teachers/family members and the student in the description of each intervention.

Part 2: Reflection

In 250-500 words, summarize and reflect upon your experiences delivering the literacy lesson, informally assessing the students, and collaborating with the teacher to develop the additional interventions. Explain the interventions you developed and how you expect them to meet the needs of the students, incorporating their assessment results in your response. Explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice.

 

National Cancer Institute Data

 

There is often the requirement to evaluate descriptive statistics for data within the organization or for health care information. Every year the National Cancer Institute collects and publishes data based on patient demographics. Understanding differences between the groups based upon the collected data often informs health care professionals towards research, treatment options, or patient education.
Using the data on the “National Cancer Institute Data” Excel spreadsheet, calculate the descriptive statistics indicated below for each of the Race/Ethnicity groups. Refer to your textbook and the topic Resources, as needed, for assistance in with creating Excel formulas.
Provide the following descriptive statistics:
1. Measures of Central Tendency: Mean, Median, and Mode
2. Measures of Variation: Variance, Standard Deviation, and Range (a formula is not needed for Range).
3. Once the data is calculated, provide a 150-250 word analysis of the descriptive statistics on the spreadsheet. This should include differences and health outcomes between groups.

Creating a prototype of the new LAN.

 

 

Scenario:
IT has tasked you with creating a prototype of the new LAN. You need to document the
prototype and identify what works as well as what does not work. The requirements you have
specify a maximum number of switch (2), the number of virtual LANs (VLANs) as three, and
some computers for endpoint testing.
Overview
Modern switches use VLANs to improve network performance by separating large Layer 2
broadcast domains into smaller ones. VLANs can also be used as a security measure by
controlling which hosts can communicate. In general, VLANs make it easier to design a network
to support the goals of an organization. VLAN trunks are used to span VLANs across multiple
devices. Trunks allow the traffic from multiple VLANS to travel over a single link, while
keeping the VLAN identification and segmentation intact.
Objectives
• Design a Local Area Network using switches and hosts (computers)
• Create basic switch configurations necessary for switch maintenance and operation
• Define Virtual LANs (VLANs) to enforce segmentation
• Implement necessary VLAN trunking to extend a VLAN across the LAN
Tools
• You will need a diagramming application such as draw.io or Visio to complete Part 1.
• You can reference the following uCertify labs for help in building the switch
configurations: Modules 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.
• Note: access to physical or emulated Cisco devices is not required to complete this
project. However, if you want to test, practice, or otherwise tinker you can get Cisco
Packet Tracer (https://skillsforall.com/course/getting-started-cisco-packet-tracer) or
GNS3 (https://www.gns3.com/)
Part 1: Design the Local Area Network
The work milestones for this part of the project are as follows:
• The LAN must consist of 2 switches and 3 computers.
• The two switches must be named S1 and S2.
• The three computers must be named PC-A, PC-B, and PC-C.
Part 2: Create the basic switch configurations
Your network engineering lead has approved the LAN design. Now, the work to implement the
design can begin. Your tasks are as follows:
2.1 Cable the network
Version 1.0
• Connect PC-A to S1 on Ethernet Interface 6
• Connect S1 to S2 on Ethernet Interfaces 1
• Connect PC-B to S2 on Ethernet Interface 11
• Connect PC-C to S2 on Ethernet Interface 18
2.2. Configure the basic switch functions
Configure the basic functions in both S1 and S2 as follows:
• Set the enable secret to “class”
• Set the line con 0 password to “cisco”
• Set the line vty 0 15 password to “cisco”
• Set the MOTD to “Unauthorized access is strictly prohibited.”
• Set logging to synchronous
2.3 Configure the computers
Configure the three computers as follows:
Name IP Address Subnet Gateway
PC-A 192.168.10.3 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1
PC-B 192.168.10.4 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1
PC-C 192.168.20.3 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.1
2.4 Test and Validate Connectivity
Use ping to test connectivity between the computers. Detail your results in your project
document, both what works and what doesn’t work.
Part 3: Define the VLANs
3.1 You need to define three VLANs in both S1 and S2 as follows:
• VLAN 10 Students
• VLAN 20 Faculty
• VLAN 99 Management
3.2 Then, define the following interfaces for the VLANs as:
Device Interfaces VLAN / IP Address
S1 6, 12 – 20, 22-23 VLAN 10
S1 11,21 VLAN 20
S1 VLAN 99 192.168.1.11 255.255.255.0
S2 11 VLAN 10
S2 18 VLAN 20
S2 VLAN 99 192.168.1.12 255.255.255.0
Version 1.0
Part 4: Implement VLAN Trunking
4.1 Implement VLAN trunking on the switches as follows:
• Manually set interface 1 on S1 and S2 to trunk (do not use mode dynamic desirable)
4.2 Use ping to test connectivity between the computers and switches. Detail your results in your
project document, both what works and what doesn’t work

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

 

It is estimated that more almost 7% of the U.S. population will experience posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in their lifetime (National Institute of Mental Health, 2017). This debilitating disorder often interferes with an individual’s ability to function in daily life. Common symptoms of anxiousness and depression frequently lead to behavioral issues, adolescent substance abuse issues, and even physical ailments. For this Assignment, you examine a PTSD video case study and consider how you might assess and treat clients presenting with PTSD.

 

Review this week’s Learning Resources and reflect on the insights they provide about diagnosing and treating PTSD.
View the media Presentation Example: Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and assess the client in the case study.
For guidance on assessing the client, refer to Chapter 3 of the Wheeler text.
Note: To complete this Assignment, you must assess the client, but you are not required to submit a formal comprehensive client assessment.
