Whether you are a novice in networking technology or have some previous experience, you surely have experience using a network to access a school, business, or home network and the Internet.
From your experience, where in the OSI model do you think the majority of networking problems occur and why?
Most of you will have never worked in a therapy session with a client or clients. There is no way
to prepare you for that experience unless you begin to think as if you were in that situation.
Theories are important to know, but how you will implement the constructs of the theories is so
much more crucial. Using the two scenarios below, complete a treatment plan for each one.
When you are finished, you should have two completed treatment plans. There are no
exact answers because each treatment plan could be approached from dozens of directions.
Your outline should be consistent from top to bottom as you think about each scenario. For
example, if you state in the beginning of the treatment plan that the client(s)’ presenting issue is
depression, then, at the bottom of the outline you should not state that you will be seeing that
person once a month. For 99% of the population being treated for depression, once a month
would be of very little help. Make sure that you use the template below and fill in all the required
information.
Keep in mind that, even though there might be three or four blanks for you to provide
information, you might need less or more blanks to fill in the information that you think is
necessary.
Note: If specific information is not provided in the scenarios below, you can devise the
information if it stays consistent with the other facts. For example, in Scenario #1, you can
presume that the client has a Catholic background or a Protestant background; you can
presume ethnicity if you deem it relevant.
Scenario for Treatment Plan #1
A family comes to your practice for help. Here is the following information that is collected
during their intake.
Mom and Dad have been married for twenty years. They have a middle-class income. Mom
works twenty hours per week as a para legal. Dad is a college professor at the local four-year
institution. They have three children. The oldest is a 16-year-old girl. She is a straight A
student, and she is well liked at her school and the family’s church. She does not play any
sports. Her hobbies are reading, art, and theatre club at the school. She just received her
driver’s license about three months ago. It is rare that she is ever in trouble and in need of

discipline for breaking family or school rules.
The second child is 12-year-old male. This young man seems to find trouble anywhere he goes
during the day. He struggles in school, but the teachers state he is fully capable of completing
the work; he just refuses to do the work. He is defiant at school and at home. He spends most
of his time defying authority figures who are left in charge of him each day. He can go for days
without getting in trouble and then he could go a week getting in trouble every day. Even when
he is presented with a “video” of his infraction, he will sit and deny it. He never claims that
anything is his fault. He has been known to get into fights at school and even with his older
sister. The older sister never fights back. She tries to get away from him rather than engage.
He will intentionally break a rule at home and blame it on his older sister or younger brother.
Spanking him only makes him madder and more out of control. Time-out ruins everyone’s night
because he sits in time-out and verbally says things to bother the rest of the household. The
only person he has never shown the behavior is his grandmother on his mother’s side.
The third child is a 10- year-old boy. The boy is identical to the older sibling. He makes good
grades, and he is well liked by others. He does show some of the “baby of the family” traits.
For example, when his older brother picks on him, he immediately cries and screams for his
mother.

Imagine you are a project manager who is responsible for each phase of the project life cycle.
Compose a one-page paper that explains the processes or strategies you would implement to ensure documentation, communication, and final version signoff are received before moving the project to the next phase. Explain your reasoning.
A good Project Management always worries about and looks out for “scope creep”…
… what can she/he do to prevent it throughout the project?
Based on the article and Chapter 12 in the textbook, please respond to the following:
Explain your previous or current organization’s performance management, compensation, benefits, and payroll system. Can these systems be accessed via one HRIS, or does your organization use multiple systems? Explain.
Do you think your organization’s performance management, compensation, benefits, and payroll systems are effective? Why or why not? What recommendations would you make to improve those systems?
Project evaluation is imperative to the success of any project. It allows analysts to monitor progress and test changes. This is a crucial opportunity to maximize project success and enhance future initiatives.
The city of Kelsey has posted a notice of public meeting and a variety of memos describing the proposed Stanley Park Project. As the program analyst for the city of Kelsey, you must evaluate the predicted value of the project to the community. You must present your evaluation to the city council.
Resource: City of Kelsey Virtual Organization https://multimedia.phoenix.edu/virtualorgs/government/kelseycity/index.html
Write a paper in which you complete the following:
o Determine what information might be important for the city to collect in order to evaluate the predicted value of the Stanley Park Project to the community.
o Explain the value of the information needed for the evaluation of the program.
o Describe the use of normative futures in goals and agenda setting for the Stanley Park Project.
o Explain how this information may be used in setting project goals and objectives.
o Develop program performance measures based on program goals and objectives.
** Why does Act I begin with interview excerpts about the kind of place Laramie is? **
• What kind of place is it, according to the residents? Are there different viewpoints?
• What makes a place – simple geography or the physical qualities of the place? Do people contribute to a sense of place? How?
• What does Jedadiah Schultz mean by “Now, after Matthew, I would say that Laramie is a town defined by an accident, a crime. We’ve become Waco, we’ve become Jasper. We’re a noun, a definition, a sign …?”
• How did the theater group feel when they arrived in Laramie, Wyoming? How did they feel eating at the inn? What were their fears? Why do you think they went to Laramie to begin with?
• Why is Marge Murray cautious in her initial interview with Greg Pierotti? What do you think she fears (14-16)?
• How does Doc O’Connor characterize Matthew Shepard? What does he say about the attitude towards gays in Wyoming (18 – 21)?
• Is there a difference between the way Romaine Peterson characterizes Shepard and the way Jon Peacock does? He was a college student, like you; how was he changing or “growing up” according to Peterson and Peacock (19-20)?
What data tools and types of comparisons are important for your program evaluation?
What types of audiences do you have in your stakeholder community? How will you tailor the presentation of findings to meet their needs?
If you were meeting with community stakeholders, what would you prepare and how would you communicate the information so that conclusions are fully understandable to stakeholders?
How will you compare your conclusions to existing benchmarks and standards?
Do a research paper on managing project risk with at least 2500 words. In my paper I would research the history of project risk management,
How it got started and why, and how its applied today. Talk about the process of identifying, assessing, and mitigating risk. What are successful implementations of project management, how was it actually done…and what are lessons learnt, best practices etc.
Make sure you have 2-3 case studies from industry to support your discussion of issues. A research paper on a specific company is NOT allowed
Using all the information you have obtained during the intake and pre-sentence investigation and your interview as well as Johnny’s probation order, complete a supervision plan. List the special needs you have identified throughout your investigation of Johnny and be sure to include a detailed narrative on how you plan to address each specific need and ensure that Johnny will be successful on probation.
Scenario
Johnny Noe Behave was in Juvenile Court last week for a dispositional hearing (sentencing). After reviewing your risk assessment and pre-sentence investigation report, the judge requested a psychological evaluation. Johnny was uncooperative with the psychologist so the evaluation was not as thorough as it could have been. However, the psychologist diagnosed Johnny with Cannabis Abuse after Johnny disclosed to him that he smokes marijuana 5-6 times a week. After reviewing your reports and the evaluation, the judge decided to sentence Johnny to a 30-day short-term placement program in a secure detention facility followed by supervised probation for a period of 24 months.
The judge ordered a few special probation conditions in addition to the general conditions to include community service hours, drug treatment, and an apology letter to the school for possessing drugs on school property. You have been assigned to be Johnny’s probation officer by your supervisor and you have 30 days to complete a supervision plan.
After court, you met with Johnny, Grandmother Granny, and Grandaddy Joe before Johnny was taken back to the detention center. Johnny’s parents, Daddy Khant Behave and Mommy Dearest also came to the meeting. Grandmother Granny shared that she has spoken to an inpatient drug treatment program and they have agreed to admit Johnny after he is released from detention. The program is a 28-day program. Johnny was not happy to hear about the program and does not want to go. He stated that he does not want to talk to a counselor. He hated his last counselor at Mental Health Clinics, Inc. The drug treatment program told Grandmother Granny that Johnny will require aftercare after he completes their program and is released. Grandmother Granny asked you for advice on what type of aftercare she should sign Johnny up for. Daddy and Mommy Dearest stated they want to be involved because they have already lost Johnny’s sibling to foster care and had their rights terminated and they want to try and fix their mistakes and do better for Johnny. You asked for information on where Johnny and his grandparents live and Grandmother Granny shared that they live in 3-bedroom, 2 bathhouses. Johnny’s aunt and uncle live in a trailer down the street about 1 mile. Johnny’s school is only 2 miles away but he cannot return to his home school because of the recent drug charges. Instead, he will have to attend the alternative school for one year before he can return to mainstream school. His family is worried about Johnny going to the school because they think all the “trouble” kids go there.
