This is a Lab report assignment, the teacher put the instructions in the document provided. Its about Current and Voltage divider. There are 2 links in the document youll have to use to complete the Lab assignment.

Competencies 738.2.1 : Foundations of Inquiry The learner differentiates between quality improvement processes, evidence-based practice, and research. 738.2.2 : Literature Review and Analysis The learner demonstrates knowledge of the process and outcomes of conducting a literature review. Introduction Evidence-based literature comes from many sources. The discipline of nursing has an abundance of research data and resources to guide clinical decisions. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the basic tenets of critically appraising such evidence for its use in interprofessional healthcare practices. This assessment is divided into two tasks. In this first task, you will identify a clinical practice problem, develop an evidence-based practice (EBP) question, and select one applicable research-based article and one non-research-based article published in a peer-reviewed journal within the past five years to find answers to that question. You will submit these articles for evaluation and approval before proceeding to the next task. In the second task, you will review the selected research-based and non-research-based articles to find answers to your EBP question. Note that while you will be analyzing only one research-based and one non-research-based article in this task, an actual evidence-based practice change would require the support of many high-quality sources of evidence. Recommendation: It is highly recommended that you complete the Johns Hopkins Evidence-Based Practice (JHEBP) modules throughout the course of study before beginning the performance assessment. The modules will help you understand the criteria for selecting the articles and applying the JHEBP model effectively. Note: You must submit and successfully pass Task 1 before beginning work on Task 2. The work you complete in Task 1 will directly inform and support the analysis required in Task 2. Requirements Your submission must represent your original work and understanding of the course material. Most performance assessment submissions are automatically scanned through the WGU similarity checker. Students are strongly encouraged to wait for the similarity report to generate after uploading their work and then review it to ensure Academic Authenticity guidelines are met before submitting the file for evaluation. See Understanding Similarity Reports for more information. Grammarly Note: Professional Communication will be automatically assessed through Grammarly for Education in most performance assessments before a student submits work for evaluation. Students are strongly encouraged to review the Grammarly for Education feedback prior to submitting work for evaluation, as the overall submission will not pass without this aspect passing. See Use Grammarly for Education Effectively for more information. Microsoft Files Note: Write your paper in Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) unless another Microsoft product, or pdf, is specified in the task directions. Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive, etc. All supporting documentation, such as screenshots and proof of experience, should be collected in a pdf file and submitted separately from the main file. For more information, please see Computer System and Technology Requirements. A. Submit a copy of your Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) certification in a .jpeg, .png, .bmp, .gif, or .pdf file. B. Identify a clinical practice problem relevant to your area of interest or setting. 1. Explain how this problem impacts patient outcomes and the healthcare organization, such as its operations, culture, or performance. C. Identify each of the following PICO components of the clinical practice problem from part B: P: patient, population, or problem I: intervention C: comparison O: outcome 1. Write an evidence-based practice (EBP) question using the PICO components identified in part C. Note: Refer to the Appendix B: Question Development Tool web link for information on the creation of an EBP question. D. Identify a research-based article from a peer-reviewed journal, published within the past five years, that addresses the specific problem and intervention in your EBP question from part C1. Note: Refer to the Appendix E: Research Evidence Appraisal Tool web link for information on how to select your research-based article. Note: You will be required to provide a full reference for the article in part F. 1. Explain why the research-based article would be appropriate for the evidence appraisal and how it supports your EBP question. E. Identify a non-research-based article from a peer-reviewed journal, published within the past five years, that addresses the specific problem and intervention in your EBP question from part C1. Note: Refer to the Appendix F: Non-Research Evidence Appraisal Tool web link for information on how to select your non-research-based article. Note: You will be required to provide a full reference for the article in part F. 1. Explain why the non-research-based article would be appropriate for the evidence appraisal and how it supports your EBP question. F. Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized. G. Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission. File Restrictions File name may contain only letters, numbers, spaces, and these symbols: ! – _ . * ‘ ( ) File size limit: 200 MB File types allowed: doc, docx, rtf, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx, odt, pdf, csv, txt, qt, mov, mpg, avi, mp3, wav, mp4, wma, flv, asf, mpeg, wmv, m4v, svg, tif, tiff, jpeg, jpg, gif, png, zip, rar, tar, 7z

Make sure that you cite textual examples (at least 3!) in your analysis. Your response must be at least ONE page of writing- properly formatted in formal MLA format (12pt font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, 1-inch margins – and yes, I can tell if the formatting is correct just by LOOKING at it). Check the resources folder if you are unsure about what that looks like. DO NOT think about the length. Think about your ideas. Use solid examples. Explain them clearly and make connections to your analysis. Think about the WHY. If you are writing QUALITY work and supporting and connecting your ideas, then the length will take care of itself. I promise! OPTIONS: 1. Law vs. Morality Prompt: In Antigone, Sophocles presents a clash between divine law (the gods will) and human law (Creons decree). Which does the play ultimately support? Guiding Questions: How do Antigone and Creon justify their actions? What are the consequences of choosing one law over the other? How does Sophocles use the outcome of the play to guide the audiences judgment? Suggested Thesis Direction: Argue that Sophocles shows the dangers of prioritizing human law over divine lawor vice versadepending on your interpretation. 2. The Tragic Hero Prompt: Aristotle defined a tragic hero as a character of noble status whose downfall is caused by a tragic flaw. Who fits this definition better in Antigone: Antigone or Creon? Guiding Questions: Which character displays hubris or stubbornness? Which character undergoes a change in recognition (anagnorisis)? Which one suffers a downfall that evokes pity or fear? Suggested Thesis Direction: Make the case that either Antigone or Creon is the true tragic hero, using Aristotles criteria to support your analysis. 3. Gender and Power Prompt: How does Sophocles use gender roles to highlight power struggles in Antigone? Guiding Questions: How does Creon view womens place in society? How do Antigone and Ismene respond to the expectations placed on them as women? In what ways does Antigone challenge or conform to Greek gender norms? Suggested Thesis Direction: Argue that Antigone either reinforces traditional Greek ideas of gender or subverts them by showing women as powerful agents of moral authority. 4. Pride and Consequence Prompt: Pride (hubris) plays a central role in the downfall of characters in Greek tragedy. In Antigone, how does pride shape the fate of Antigone and Creon? Guiding Questions: How does each character show pride in their beliefs or actions? How does pride prevent compromise or reconciliation? What consequences result from their stubbornness? Suggested Thesis Direction: Argue that pride is either a destructive flaw that leads to tragedy, or a form of strength that highlights the nobility of standing firm in ones beliefs.

Can you create me a lesson plan for a 1 st or 2nd grade classroom. Use the lesson plan I attached as a guide and make it similar style of writing to that.

fill in the blank one attached

For this assignment, with the help from the videos/reading assigned as well as your personal teaching experience, please choose a grade between Pre-K (ages 4-5) and 2nd grade, and create a reading lesson plan focusing on a specific reading strategy. This lesson plan should address an inclusive classroom- students that are below, on, and above grade level.

Given that this assignment is based on a hypothetical class, I’d like for you to think of the following:

• Differentiation
• Grouping of students (RTI- low/medium/high risk students)
• “I Do, We Do, You do” model
• Assessments (needs to be grade level appropriate)
• Formal- can be tests/quizzes/projects
• Informal- can be conferencing with students, playing concept specific games, exit tickets
• Fluidity of the classroom (stations, centers, partners, etc.)
• Accommodations (based on hypothetical students: proximity to teacher, visuals, audio support, etc.)
• Use of manipulatives (I find that no matter what age, the use of manipulatives is more often than not a motivation for students).
• Manipulatives could be- money, dry erase boards, base-ten blocks, counters, play-doh).

Be as creative as you can/want! After all, we need to enjoy the lessons we teach as well 🙂

Three influential and well-respected faculty members are quite resistant to this change. Describe at least three strategies you would use to gain their buy-in and support.

Assignment Details Follow this order for your presentation: Your title slide will identify yourself and the title of your presentation. You may use a picture of yourself, if you would like, on your title page. The introduction slide should include brief information about you and your program track. The slide should also explain to the audience the purpose of the presentation. Describe a grand nursing theory and focus on how the grand nursing theory aligns with your nursing philosophy, worldviews, and applies to your advanced nursing role. Describe your chosen middle-range or practice-level theory, the theorys key concepts, and how it has been used in research. You will also apply this theory to your advanced nursing role. Describe your chosen ethical model with an identification of important characteristics that apply to your future advanced nursing role. Show each of the two chosen theories: grand nursing theory, the middle-range or practice-level theory, and the ethical model can be applied to an advanced nursing practice role. Work together to inform future advanced nursing roles. Demonstrate translation of one other interdisciplinary science theory and its impact on research-based knowledge into advanced nursing practice. Address nursing theory’s overall use towards ethical decision making to assess, intervene in, and evaluate care. The final content slide will be your concluding slide. You bring it all together as you summarize the most important points and make connections to demonstrate how nursing theory will advance your practice and allow you to provide high-quality nursing care. The last slide will be your reference slide using APA format. Assignment Requirements: Minimal slide requirement is 10-15 slides of content (maximum 15 slides). This does not include the title and reference slides. Each slide should have a title itself Each slide should have audio narration.
