  • 7-1 Project

    Competencies

    In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competencies:

    • Conduct research for specific writing situations
    • Integrate qualified evidence from research into ones own writing
    • Articulate an evidence-based position in a written communication

    Overview

    Persuasive essays are a staple of writing. A persuasive essay has multiple goals. One is to demonstrate certain skills like research, proper citation, and critical thinking. These skills benefit us any time we need to take a position on a topic. This could be to present information for a suggested change at work or to help change someones mind about a global issue affecting our society. The skills that you will develop in writing your persuasive essay with research are transferable to all aspects of life and career.

    When writing a persuasive essay, a writer must consider multiple communication elements and persuasive writing techniques such as strategically using introductions and conclusions, refuting an opposing viewpoint, among others. These elements of writing matter in everything we write, not just in essays. Persuasive essays organize your ideas by stating a thesis, followed by key points backed up by citations from credible sources, and examine diverse perspectives. All the skills that you will develop while working on your persuasive essay with research will help you when trying to persuade someone to consider your perspective.

    Directions

    There are two parts to this assignment: creating a collection of sources and writing a persuasive essay supported by research.

    1. For Part One, you will list the sources you will use in your persuasive essay. You will also include a description of each source and other information about your research process. Please note that the information in Part One must be included in your submission and is in addition to the traditional References (APA) section that will appear at the end of your paper.
    2. For Part Two, you will write an essay that states your position on a topic, integrates evidence from the sources you listed in Part One to support your key points, and uses different writing techniques to engage and persuade your audience. You will use at least one source from the Project Resources and two sources that you find through your own research using the Shapiro Library to support your project. Your final draft of Part Two should include a minimum of three sources.

    Part One: Collection of Sources

    In Module Three, you will collect sources to create an annotated bibliography. In Module Seven, you will apply instructor feedback to revise your collection of sources and resubmit it for Part One of the project. Your sources will help you organize your research as you prepare to write a persuasive essay in Part Two of the project. This part of your project should be 2 to 4 pages long.

    Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

    1. Purpose: State the purpose of your research.
    2. Consider the purpose of your research in relation to your topic.
    3. Research Question: State your research question.
    4. State your revised research question.
    5. Based on your research, what is your potential answer to your question? Considering the potential answer to your research question now will help you write a thesis statement for your persuasive essay in a future assignment. The thesis statement will be an essential part of your essay.
    6. Biased Sources: Describe the impact of using biased sources to support your topic.
    7. How does the presence of bias in each source impact your argument?
    8. Diverse Perspectives: Describe how diverse perspectives from sources support your position. Consider the following questions:
    9. How do the multiple voices in the sources give evidence for your argument?
    10. How do these diverse perspectives from your research support your topic?
    11. Relevant Sources: List three relevant sources to support your persuasive essay.
    12. Include one source from the Project Resources and two sources that you find through your own research using the Shapiro Library.
    13. Include a citation entry for each source.
    14. Supports: Describe how each source supports your topic.
    15. Briefly summarize each source and state why it is credible.
    16. Explain how each source is relevant to your research question.

    Part Two: Persuasive Essay With Research

    In Part Two, you will write a persuasive essay that is supported by the sources you listed in Part One. To write your essay, revise the draft you wrote in Module Five using the instructor and peer feedback you received in Modules Five and Six. This part of your project should be 2 to 3 pages long.

    Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

    1. Thesis Statement: Compose a thesis statement that addresses your position.
    2. Key Points: Support key points in your persuasive essay with evidence from your research.
    3. These are the key points presented in your thesis statement.
    4. Quotes or Paraphrases: Use quotes or paraphrases to integrate evidence from research into your persuasive essay.
    5. Include at least one quote or paraphrase for each body paragraph.
    6. Strategies: Include strategies to meet the needs of an audience. In your response, include the following content:
    7. An introduction with relevant background information that appeals to your chosen audience
    8. A conclusion that summarizes your key points and includes a call to action for your chosen audience
    9. Persuasive Writing Techniques: Use persuasive writing techniques in the body of your persuasive essay.
    10. Address and refute an opposing viewpoint to your position.
    11. Attribution Conventions: Use attribution conventions throughout your persuasive essay.

  • Computing T-tests and ANOVAS.

    Instructions

    t-tests:

    • Run your independent samples t-test examining the differences between men and women in much hurt they reported experiencing immediately after a breakup occurred. (columns A & B in the dataset)
    • Summary paragraph: explain the result of your t-test in a paragraph while addressing the following information:
    • Was the t-test significant or not significant? And what does that mean for a t-test
    • What were the group means for each group? Include them as you explain what you found.
    • Create a graph or chart to help visualize this data and paste it in the same worksheet.
    • Reference your graph in your summary.

    Oneway ANOVA:

    • Run a oneway ANOVA (single factor) examining how the medium used to enact a breakup (in-person/phone call/email/text message) impacts the current levels of happiness in regard to the breakup. (columns C-F).
    • paste your output in the same workbook to the right of your t-test output
    • If ANOVA is significant, Run a post hoc tests.
    • calculate the effect size for the anova (equation: Between group SS/Total SS)
    • Summary paragraph: Explain the results of the anova in a short paragraph while addressing the following:
    • Was it significant or not significant?
    • If it was significant, what did the post hoc results tell you?
    • Make sure to explain which pairs of groups differed significantly while including the group means as you explain the results
    • What was the effect size? What does that mean?
    • Create a graph or chart to help visualize the data and make reference to it in your write up.
    • Submit your assignment as an excel file.
    • Steps for running an independent samples t-test in Excel:
    • Make sure that
    • Choose t-test: Two sample assuming equal variances from Data Analysis tab
    • Click the labels box so they will be included
    • Enter the range of variable 1 (group 1s scores) and range of variable 2 (group 2s scores)
    • Choose a cell for the output table to go
    • Steps for running oneway ANOVA in Excel:
    1. Format columns for IV groups with their DVscores (if not done already)
    2. Choose Anova: Single Factor from the Data Analysis tab
    3. Click box for labels in first row
    4. Grouping: make sure columns is selected
    5. Input range: Highlight the data in the columns with your different groups scores (including headings)
    6. Output options: select the output range option and select the cell you want the results table to show up
    7. Examine table to determine if F-test/ANOVA was significant.
    8. If significant, continue with the following steps:
    • Post hoc results if ANOVA is significant (if ANOVA was not significant, dont proceed)
    1. Calculate Number of pairwise comparisons needed using this formula: k*(k-1)/2
    2. K = # of groups
    3. Run “ind samples t-tests for unequal variances” from data analysis tab for each pair of groups
    4. Example: group 1-group 2, group 1-group3, and group2-group3 = 3 tests
    5. Keep output range to same worksheet and paste output tables near each other (nearby cells)
    6. (Should end up with a t-test table for each pair of groups)
    7. Next, Calculate Bonferroni to adjust the alpha level for running multiple of the same test (increases our chance of committing Type 1 error)
    8. Formula: Divide .05 by the number of t-tests (pairwise comparisons) you did
    9. Compare the Bonferroni corrected alpha value to the p value (2 tailed) for each t-test,
    10. example: if you ran 3 t-tests to compare your groups, then you would divide .05/3 =.02
    11. If the p value (two-tailed) of each ind samples t-test is equal to or less than corrected alpha, that pair of groups are significantly different from each other

  • 5-1 final project milestone

    Much of what happens in healthcare is about understanding the expectations of the many departments and personnel within the organization. Reimbursement drives the financial operations of healthcare organizations; each department affects the reimbursement process regarding timelines and the amount of money put into and taken out of the system. However, if departments do not follow the guidelines put into place or do not capture the necessary information, it can be detrimental to the reimbursement system. An important role for patient financial services (PFS) personnel is to monitor the reimbursement process, analyze the reimbursement process, and suggest changes to help maximize the reimbursement. One way to make this process more efficient is by ensuring that the various departments and personnel are exposed to the necessary knowledge. In Milestone Two, you will begin thinking about reimbursement in terms of billing and marketing. Reimbursement is a complex process with several stakeholders; this milestone allows you to begin thinking about the key players, including third-party billing, data collection, staff management, and ensuring compliance. Marketing and communication also plays a vital role in reimbursement; this milestone offers a chance to begin analyzing effective strategies and their impact. Prompt Using the provided template in the Guidelines for Submission, submit your draft of Sections III and IV of the final project. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: Billing and Reimbursement Analyze how third-party policies would be used when developing billing guidelines for patient financial services (PFS) personnel and administration when determining the payer mix for maximum reimbursement. How do third-party policies impact the payer mix for maximum reimbursement? Organize the key areas of review in order of importance for timeliness and maximization of reimbursement from third-party payers. Explain your rationale on the order. Describe a way to structure your follow-up staff in terms of effectiveness. How can you ensure that this structure will be effective? Develop a plan for periodic review of procedures to ensure compliance. Include explicit steps for this plan and the feasibility of enacting this plan within this organization. Marketing and Reimbursement Explain how new managed care contracts impact reimbursement for the healthcare organization. Support your explanation with concrete evidence or research. Discuss the resources needed to ensure billing and coding compliance with regulations. Evaluate strategies to ensure stakeholders involved in the reimbursement process adhere to ethical standards
