first assignment,, introduction to creating your own web site using modern tools.

/in /by

1) first assignment,, introduction to creating your own web site using modern tools. This does not require programming. You need about the same technical ability as creating a PowerPoint. You can use any website building tool you wish. Two examples of website building tools that other students have successfully include Wix.com and Weebly.com
Here is a step-by-step guide:
1) Select one of these or any web site building tools.
2) Create your own url web site address.
3) Add a few words and one picture/image. At this point, you can just say “Hi mom!” or whatever you want (as long as it is “G” rated and grammatically correct). You will develop wonderful rich content starting next week.
4) Optional – Go into tools and remove your site from search engines so someone would need to know your specific web site address and type in specific characters such as” http://linda.htm310website.weekbly.com This protects the privacy of your work without requiring passwords for someone to view your site.
5) Publish and test your url. It is wise to try it out in a separate browser than you created it to verify it works.
6) Place your url in BB under the Week One project assignment
7) Congratulate yourself and celebrate! (especially if this is your first site)

The topic of your project needs to be a contemporary societal problem, such as healthcare reform, immigration reform, privacy rights, euthanasia, First Amendment Rights, stem cell research, capital punishment, corporate prisons, legalizing drugs, ageism, animal rights, cloning, prayer in schools, racial profiling, recycling/conservation, sexism, outsourcing jobs, workplace bullying, etc. The topic must focus on a single aspect, as in “How far do corporations intrude into the private lives of their employers?” or “The social costs of financing the distribution of custom-designed drugs.” You may suggest another topic to use, but the instructor must approve the topic during the Week Two Discussion.
The Final Research Project will present research relating the responsibilities of a critical thinker to contemporary society. In this assignment, you will do the following:

  • Research one aspect of a contemporary social problem.
  • Define the problem.
  • Propose a possible solution for the problem.
  • Create an argument that supports your thesis position. You should take on the perspective of a critically thinking researcher. The argument must present a thesis statement and evidence to support the thesis statement.
  • Evaluate the ethical outcomes that result from the position you take on the issue and explain how those outcomes would influence society and culture.
  • Interpret statistical data from at least two peer-reviewed scholarly sources.
  • Evaluate evidence using the following standards: validity, reliability, and bias related to the chosen topic and accurately identify strengths and weaknesses.

Research and Define the Problem
You must take on the perspective of your major field of study and explain in your paper what that perspective is and how it informs your view of the topic. The topics listed above are far too broad to write about in 10–12 pages (3,300–3,900 words). Instead, you must choose a narrowly defined thesis and approach it from the perspective of your field.
Example: If you are an economics major, and you are interested in immigration reform, you should approach a very specific aspect of immigration reform through the lens of economic theory and practice. A specific thesis question would not be, “How does illegal immigration influence the U.S. economy?” One could write thousands of pages on such a topic. Instead, a better question would be, “How do illegal immigrant hotel workers in Chicago impact the economy of Northern Illinois?” You would then want to do the research and determine the positive and negative impacts they have, ultimately trying to conclude how illegal immigration in this area should be approached ethically.

The final project is composed of two parts: a research paper and an annotated bibliography. The research paper requires that the student work on it each week, as it is due at the end of module 8. The purpose of the paper is to provide an opportunity for students to investigate a disorder of interest to them, evaluate treatment strategies, draw conclusions, and provide recommendations. The student will use at least five peer reviewed references and five credible websites to build a paper of at least ten pages using APA guidelines.
For this research paper, the student is to select a disorder from the following: ADHD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Dysthymic Disorder, Bipolar I Disorder, Bipolar II Disorder, Acute Stress Disorder, Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Borderline Personality Disorder, Avoidant Personality Disorder, Dependent Personality Disorder, Substance Abuse Disorder, Substance Dependence Disorder. If you are interested in investigating a disorder not mentioned above, please contact your instructor for approval.
The student’s research paper should address the following information:
I- Introduce the disorder and illustrate how it may manifest in a client’s life.
a. Expand on its relevance historically and in modern society
b. What impact does it have on the individual? Family? Community?
c. In your opinion, is it successfully being addressed in the United States? Why or Why not? Explain and support your position with current literature.
II- Discuss the criteria for diagnosis
a. Discuss the assessment tools commonly utilized in the diagnostic process.
b. What assessment tools would you recommend based on their reliability and validity? Support your position with current literature.
III- Introduce common treatment goals for the disorder.
a. Illustrate the behavioral changes that relate to the treatment goals
b. Explain the potential benefit, achieving treatment goals, may have on the individual, family, community.
IV- Introduce at least three treatment strategies for the disorder.
a. Explain each strategy, its historical foundation and how/if it is utilized in modern therapy.
b. Compare and contrast each of the strategies. Discuss strengths, weaknesses, scientific support and how/if it is widely utilized
c. What strategy or strategies would you recommend based on your findings? Support your position.
d. How can treatment progress be evaluated? What are the most effective tools for evaluation? Support your response
V- Discussion
a. What are current strategies to assist those who suffer from the disorder? Are there prevention strategies available?
b. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the current approach(s)?
c. What recommendations do you have regarding the treatment process for the disorder and its impact on individuals, families, and communities? Support your response
d. What areas of research are warranted regarding treatment for the disorder?
VI- Conclusion
a. Summarize
As part of this project, the student is to create an APA formatted annotated bibliography of Web resources. This annotated bibliography should contain at least twenty-four Web resources related to abnormal psychology. Each entry should include a short summary or description of the website, the purpose, how the site demonstrated credibility, and indicate how the information may be beneficial to students and professionals. Credible academic Web resources other than those provided throughout the course are also acceptable
