    Predictive analytics centers on data mining, processes, methods, and algorithms. According to Delen, Sharda, and Turban (2023), Generally speaking, data mining is a way to develop intelligence (i.e., actionable information or knowledge) from data that an organization collects, organizes, and stores. A wide range of data mining techniques are being used by organizations to gain a better understanding of their customers and their operations and to solve complex organizational problems (p.189).

    Healthcare organizations use data mining to reduce fraud and abuse. Doctors and nurses analyze data to implement best practices and provide positive healthcare outcomes for patients. Additionally, data mining is used to improve customer relationships and decision-making processes.

    You are the administrator for Green Valley, long-term care facility with 120-bed and skilled care providers. You have been tasked with researching how data mining could be implemented into the decision-making processes at Green Valley. You will present your researched information to the organizations regional administrators, CEO, director of nursing, and business office managers. It is your job to examine current research on data mining and present your findings and potential application to the organizations decision and policy makers.

    In your initial post of a minimum of 500 words,

    • Define data mining and the various technologies used for business analytics.
    • Discuss recent factors that have increased the popularity of data mining.
    • Describe some major data mining methods, algorithms, and benefits.
    • Compare two data mining applications used in the healthcare industry.
    • Support your response with at least three scholarly sources published in the last 5 years.

    This will be your first Pre-Observation, Observation, Post-Observation (PoP) Cycle.

    TCAP Section One: Selecting and Contextualizing Your Observation

    Review Section One of the TCAP and identify the specific part you will focus on. Use this assignment as a foundation for your TCAP submission. Later, you will incorporate additional information from Module 5 and 8 to complete this section.

    Its important to review the entire TCAP to understand how each section aligns with the assignments you complete throughout this course. Remember, your TCAP can be completed before the end of the semester.

    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    You are responsible for working with the cooperating teacher to prepare for formal observation.

    The Instructional Unit plan is a complete area of study that you and the cooperating teacher facilitated in class.

    Submit everything at least THREE (3) days prior to Formal Lesson Observation.

    1. Unit of study – from the curriculum – copy

    2. Completed lesson plan using

    that you will teach during the formal observation

    The Lesson Plan Template is a Thinking Map. It outlines the complexity of teaching and what a teacher must include when they are thoughtfully planning with information from data. Fill in the Lesson Plan Template using the specific lesson you have identified from the dedicated curriculum. Take the content and fill it in the sections on this template. There may be areas that will not have any information. This will help you see what the strength in the lesson plan and the needs based on the students you are working with.

    After you place all the information from the curriculum, what modifications will you make to support your students? When you include the modifications, make a note and highlight the modifications. At the end of the template provide a narrative that explains what data was used to make the appropriate modifications on this lesson plan to ensure all students will have access to the learning.

    3. Pre-assessments results

    The Pre-Assessment: is a quick evaluation at the start of learning (a lesson or a unit) to gauge students existing knowledge, skills, interests, and potential misconceptions, that will help you tailor instruction, group students effectively, and challenge learners appropriately, preventing reteaching or boredom, and ensuring new learning builds on prior understanding. It serves as a diagnostic tool for instructional decisions, revealing gaps and informing differentiated teaching strategies.

    The Key Purposes and Benefits of a Pre Assessment: Informs Instruction, Supports Differentiated Instruction, Identifies Gaps and/or misconceptions, Intellectually Engages Students, and Measures Growth.

    In this section, you will upload a pre-assessment that the cooperating teacher implements.

    • Highlight two strengths and two immediate needs that you learned from the results of the pre assessment.
    • How did the results of this pre assessment inform your instructional decisions on: strategies, grouping, and differentiated instruction?
    • Explain this in a narrative and reflect on how this helped you provide access to the learning for all the students.

  • Science Article

    Assessment: Popular Science Article – Instructions

    Imagine the following scenario: the UK government is threatening to cut the budget for medical science research by 40% next year and has asked funding bodies to make decisions on which areas of research should be prioritized or protected from cuts. As an expert on medical research, you are invited by ‘The Conversation’, an online news provider, to write an article making a case for the value of medical research and your opinion on which areas, if any, should be protected from cuts.

    This is your opportunity to convince the public that medical research is important. The article must be understandable by a non-specialist audience. This assessment is an exercise in communicating specialised/complex information to an educated public.

    Your article must be engaging, accessible, and free of unexplained jargon. A paper that a non- expert cannot understand will receive a low mark no matter how good you make the case for protecting medical research. You may use a maximum of three figures (e.g., graphs or diagrams) if they help illustrate a point more effectively than text but you must acknowledge the source of any published material. Figure legends are not included in the word count. However they must be directly relevant to the figure and not used as a means of increasing the text content of your article to overcome the word limit.

    Your article must address the following core points to build your case::

    What proportion of funding for medical research comes from the government?

    How is the funding used?

    How does medical research return economic and societal benefit?

    What are the possible consequences of budget cuts? You may suggest an area of medical research to spare from the cuts and justifywhy.

    This is an opportunity to use your knowledge to generate a convincing case that properly funded, good quality medical research is a worthwhile investment for the UK governmentand that cuts are a mistake. Although articles in ‘The Conversation’ usually show citations as links within the text, for the purposes of this assessment, you should provide a bibliography. Use numbers in the body of the text and a full citation in the reference list.

    1500 (+/- 10%) words. References are not included in the word count.

  • Classroom Management

    Your artifact is due next Wednesday, Feb 4th. Please remember that you MUST save it as a pdf, and post it in BOTH VCamp & Watermark SL&L.

    I taught this course previously. A student submitted the artifact, but there was nothing in the artifact linking the student’s philosophy of classroom management to anything learned in the course. It was a bunch of rambling with sources. Make sure you use information from the course in your artifact.

    In Unit 1, you were asked to share your philosophy of classroom management. Has your philosophy changed after being in this course? If so, how has it changed? If it has not changed, what areas have been validated by the information you have learned in this course?

    Write a two-page (5 paragraph) essay which analyzes and comments on your classroom philosophy.

    This is a culminating activity for this course which is meant to encompass your understanding of several topics and concepts in behavior and classroom management.

    Your Artifact must have a title page (Your name, Course Name, Date); be no less than 500 words, include information from the text and at least 2 sources/references, double-spaced, Times New Roman, and 12 point font. You must use the 7th edition APA. Note: It will require well over the 500 word minimum. 500 is only the bare minimum for consideration for a passing grade on the assignment. 500 words is not the gold standard.

    Please use Building Classroom Management: Methods and Models by C.M Charles and Karen M. Cole chapters 1-13 as the primary source
