What approaches are the best for addressing prevention and helping kids get out of gang membership? To best illustrate your response, provide an example of one such approach utilized by a community program or delinquency prevention program.
Essay should be 2-3 typewritten pages, double-spaced, using Modern Language Association (MLA) format. (See Strategies for Successful Writing, p. 385, “MLA System for Preparing Papers” and p. 403 for sample paper.) The Hindu poet Kalidasa wrote the following poem: Salutation to the Dawn January 1, Look to this day, For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the varieties and realities of your existence, The bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendor of beauty; For yesterday is but a dream; and tomorrow is only a vision, But today well lived makes Every yesterday a dream of happiness And every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day! Kalidasa Analyze and interpret this passage. Respond to the topic within the Discussions Tool, discussing your understanding of the ideas that Kalidasa expresses. Review chapters eight and nine of Strategies for Successful Writing to review narrative and descriptive essays. Write a narrative essay focusing on one incident in your life that illustrates the ideas presented in Kalidasa’s poem. Include descriptive details to convey clear imagery of the elements of your story. Remember to consider all of the senses: taste, touch, smell, sight, and sound. Create a dominant impression. You will make at least one reference to an idea from the Kalidasa poem by quoting a word or phrase from his work. The quote can appear anywhere in your essay, where it most logically emerges. Next, provide some transition that links the poem to the opening of your story. Throughout the essay, you might occasionally refer to ideas from the poem to provide a connection to the details of your experience. You might use the three major statements-“The bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendor of beauty”-to organize the major points and events of your story. Since this essay is a narrative, you must focus on presenting action. A narrative recreates action. The action is often motivated by conflict. The events of our lives and our world are often shaped by conflicts that need to be overcome or resolved. Remember you are focusing only on one specific incident as the basis of your narrative. In your concluding paragraph, you may make a reference to the poem. Your reference should reveal the thesis of the narrative-the main point that you are making with the story or the main lesson learned. The audience for this paper is your classmates. Assume that you are telling them your story to illustrate a specific point. The verb tense in telling your story should be past tense, unless a statement logically requires present tense. Be consistent in maintaining the verb tense. You may use the pronoun “I” in the narrative. This is your story. However, avoid overusing “I.” It often is not necessary to use it while explaining events. Choose only key events in telling the story. Avoid explaining every detail that occurred. You will bore the reader with too much verbiage.

Description Explain the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010 on health care organization and finance. Explain how the ACA incorporated social determinants of health into health policy. Summarize the proposed changes to the health care system under the current administration. Cite at least three peer-reviewed sources published within the last five years that support your assignment. Include an APA-formatted reference page. Format your assignment as: 550 – 600- word paper
Sources must be cited in APA format. In your course, turn to Lesson 8. Skim through it to refresh your memory. Next, carefully study and review the section titled “Approaches to Measuring Technological Progress.” Next, relying solely on the material in your course, use your own words to write a short compare-and-contrast essay that defines and explains three distinct perspectives on the evolution of technology. As you write, imagine you are talking to a friend who has no knowledge of this topic. In short, write the way you speak, using a conversational tone. Also, try to alternate short sentences and longer sentences to make your writing more readable. Be sure to create a title and cite yourself as the author. For example: A Comparison of Three Perspectives on the Evolution of Technology Mei Quoran Your essay should include five paragraphs, as follows: Paragraph 1 is your lead paragraph. It will contain an overview of what you have to say in comparing and contrasting the perspectives of Gerhard Lenski, Leslie White, and Alvin Toffler with respect to the evolution of technology. Paragraphs 2, 3, and 4, are your body paragraphs. In your essay, use paragraph 2 to describe the perspective of Gerhard Lenski. In paragraph 3, you’ll write about the perspective of Leslie White. In paragraph 4, you’ll describe and discuss the perspective of Alvin Toffler. Paragraph 5 is your summary and conclusion. Here, you’ll compare the three perspectives to show how they are, or may be, similar. You’ll contrast the three perspectives to describe how they’re different. You’ll end this process–and your essay–by expressing your view as to which of these theorists (one or more) offer the most useful insights into the evolution of technology, in your opinion. It’s permissible to use direct quotes from your reading, but don’t use too many. One to three such quotes should be your limit. Be sure to put a direct quote in quotation marks. For example: According to Smith, “Carbon dioxide is both our friend and our enemy.” Begin by writing a first draft. Then, edit and rework your material to make it clear and concise. After you have reached a final draft, proofread the essay one last time to locate and correct grammar and spelling errors. Measuring Technological Progress Sociologists, anthropologists, and other researchers have developed different ways to measure and understand technological progress. In this section, we’ll review the thoughts of four important theorists. They offer four perspectives on the relationship between technological development and our social world.
Discussion: Promoting Positive Social Change Within Diverse Organizations This week, in the video The Effects of Positive Social Change Leadership, you encountered the story of Mandy, a relatively new manager in a larger, diverse organization, who is faced with the opportunity to lead a positive social change effort. For this Discussion, you will explore the aspects of a diverse organization that would present both challenges and opportunities for a manager wanting to effect positive social change. If you were in Mandy’s position, what would be the risks of taking action? What organizational resources might you leverage in order to bring about change? To prepare for this Discussion: Review the Learning Resources and consider the risks of taking action, the organizational resources you might leverage to bring about change, and any past or present work experiences that could serve as support for your post. Review the Academic Writing Expectations for 1000-Level Courses. By Day 3 Post a 150- to 225-word (2- to 3-paragraph) explanation of how managers and leaders can promote positive social change from within their roles in diverse organizations. In your explanation, address the following: What are the aspects of a diverse organization that might benefit a manager wanting to promote positive social change? What might any challenges be? What specific steps could managers take to promote positive social change within their organizations? To support your response, be sure to reference at least two properly cited scholarly sources and include specific examples from your own experience, where applicable.
