MODERATOR

From this week’s electronic reserve readings article, Success with staff: How to become a top employer a moderator presented employment related questions regarding success with staffing. One question posed and the discussion followed, I thought was interesting was this:

“MODERATOR: How are the economy and job losses affecting the workforce shortage? What types of retraining are needed for people from manufacturing and other areas who want to enter the health care field?

EASTON: We’ve really been involved in that because prior to the year 2000, our community was the furniture capital of the world. Now all that has moved overseas. Furniture factory workers aren’t making successful transitions into other professions, but their children are more motivated to graduate from high school and to consider community college. In the past, when we had well-paying industrial and manufacturing opportunities, we had a higher dropout rate and fewer in the community college system.

RANDY WALTER (Amerinet): We’re seeing a lot of applicants who have never been in health care before. They are looking for a stable position. I think that’s something that we’re going to see happen across the country, with manufacturing jobs and the economy being hit hard.

PAYNE: I agree. My perception is that nursing especially has become such a viable career and people are going into it because of the stability. In our community, we have three generations working at our hospital and it’s still that kind of place. But in years past, people went into nursing because it was a calling, a passion. Now it’s seen as a great career, but it’s not necessarily a passion for people. They are saying, “Wow, these people are sick, and I’m not sure I enjoy nursing, but it’s a great job.” The nurse managers have to deal with that kind of dynamic more than they had to in the past” (Success with staff: How to become a top employer, 2008, p. 68).

I found this interesting because of the current political employment trend to create more jobs in the United States and to have less work oversees. I have always thought of the health care field as a necessary and ever adapting employment opportunity as science improvements further opportunity and or businesses expand. The growth alone in these two categories promotes employment opportunity and is a selling tool to engage employees. Knowing there are always positions to fill and opportunity to move around within the health care field lend to continuous engagement. There are so many ways to get employed in the health care industry without having to be a nurse or doctor, the possibilities are endless. Even one of my career goals is to gain employment in one of the top health care industries working in for their HR Administrative team. Needless to say times have changed, but this article still shines light on such an important employment discussion.

  4. Suppose you bought a house for $3,250,000 to make it a nursing home in the future. But you have not committed to the project and will decide in nine years whether to go forward with it or sell off the house. If real estate values increase annually at 1.5%, how much can you expect to sell the house for in nine years if you choose not to proceed with the nursing home project?

Do the benefits of vaccines outweigh the risk associated with them (generally speaking or a specific vaccine of your choice?

In this argument, you may support a middle ground (that you support vaccines but maybe we shouldn’t receive so many at once, at a young age, etc.). You have more flexibility in your topic compared to the Mary Mallon Essay. However, I still expect your essays to be well-written and coherent with a clearly identifiable thesis. Be sure to provide supporting evidence and proper citation whenever necessary. As you have more time to complete this essay compared to the previous essay, I recommend making an appointment with the writing center. The same 30 point scale rubric will be applied. The only difference is that I am letting you choose what the topic/research question. The expected word count is 800+ words.

General Guidelines

I DO NOT want a summary of the documentary-I was there
You are allowed to express concerns against vaccines-there are some cases of seizures and the risk may not outweigh the benefit for you personally. You may believe in a more holistic approach to medicine and seek as little medical help as possible. If that is your stance, I am interested in you arguing your reasons why?
What you cannot do is argue that vaccines cause autism.
Topic Ideas

If you struggle with having too much flexibility in a topic you may use any of the following:

As of 2015, California has removed personal and religious exemptions for vaccines. Only medical exemptions (children who are too sick to receive the vaccine) are allowed. Do you support this notion? You may want to consider using evidence from the documentary in support of your argument.

Do you think Florida should follow California’s example?

You may choose to focus on a specific vaccine, for example, should the HPV vaccine be required of every student before starting high school?

Do the benefits of vaccines outweigh the risk associated with them (generally speaking or a specific vaccine of your choice?

Do people have a justified fear surrounding vaccines?

To approach literature with an inquiring attitude because it presents us with more than one possible meaning.

A Literary Interpretation moves beyond comprehension to offer a theory about the meaning of a given story–and uses evidence from the story in support of that theory. Interpretation of written material is a skill you will use over and over throughout college (and beyond).

Objectives:

  • to approach literature with an inquiring attitude because it presents us with more than one possible meaning.
  • to extract the meaning from what was read as a practice of critical thinking.
  • to develop a unique, logical perspective and support it with evidence from the source.
  • to write down a supported opinion on a particular story, so (potentially) others can respond to that interpretation.

Assignment:

You will develop and write up a literary interpretation of one of the fairy tales presented in the textbook. (You cannot choose the one used for your discussion lead.) Choose wisely. Think about a story that evoked an emotional reaction from you or a class discussion in which you were particularly engaged—now go back and figure out why.

Your interpretation will offer an original idea or thesis (you came up with it based on your own reading, thoughts, and analysis) that is fully supported by evidence from the fairy tale. There is no need for any outside research.

Allowed sources:

The only source you are allowed is the actual story: your opinion, supported by the story you are analyzing. Do not use any other outside sources—do not read other essays or interpretations (another’s idea).

Rely on your abilities & our discussions. You have already done every part of this, but now you are giving your ideas shape, formality, and putting them on paper.

Aim for approximately 900-1000 words.

Include:

  • Brief, specific summary of the story (maximum of two sentences)
  • Clear, strong opinion (interpretation of what the story means)
  • Clear support (specific elements that support the main idea)
  • Correct incorporation of quoted material (inclusion, punctuation, & citation) Note: quoted material should be less than 20% of the essay—it’s there to support your ideas
  • MLA, APA or Chicago Style
  • Correct Works Cited (one source, full citation)
Elements of EssayAssessment Criteria
Content/OrganizationIs my paper well-defined, showing insightful analysis and interpretation? Does the format & structure of my essay work with my main idea? Balanced introduction and conclusion? Graceful and effective transitions?
DictionDoes my writing include compelling word choice, demonstrating insightful use of figurative language?
Sentence StructureAre my sentences carefully formed and positioned with attention to emphasis, rhythm, and pace to engage the reader?
Grammar and MechanicsDoes my writing demonstrate a mastery of grammar, creating compelling prose, with few to no errors?
Research and DocumentationAre my included examples relevant? Are they accurately and skillfully quoted, included, and discussed as support of my ideas? Are my sources in correct MLA or APA format, both in-text and in the Works Cited?

——————————————————– **important **————————————————————–

use the book as the one and only source please dont go to any other source.
