Assessment Description

Name two different methods for evaluating evidence. Compare and contrast these two methods.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS

Discussion Questions (DQ)

Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

Weekly Participation

Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

APA Format and Writing Quality

Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

Use of Direct Quotes

I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.
As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.
It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

LopesWrite Policy

For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.
Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.
Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?
Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.

Late Policy

The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.
Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.
If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.
I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.
As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

Communication

Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me:
Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.
Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.

· A urine culture test helps reveal the microorganism responsible for the urinary tract infection of the patient.

· A dipstick urinalysis test reveals a positive outcome for the nitrates and leukocyte esterase.

· Vaginal discharge culture- the test is pending so that the presence of the Gram-negative diplococci and Neisseria gonorrhoeae can be confirmed. The sensitivity test is also pending. There is a positive test outcome for the monoclonal AB for Chlamydia.

· A Pap smear- the test was used to determine the problem with lower abdominal pain. The test outcome was negative.

ASSESSMENT

Differential Diagnoses

Chlamydia ICD-10-CM-A56.8: It is a disease that is caused by the presence of the bacteria known as Chlamydia trachomatis (Witkin et al., 2017). The condition is detected in the latest stages since it tends to manifest in the advanced stages. It is caused by having unsafe sex practice with the partner who is already affected (Witkin et al., 2017). The symptoms presented by the patients point to the possibilities of chlamydia. It occurs as a result of having more than one partner, previous diagnosis with the disease, engaging in unsafe sex practices, and having other STDs. The client was confirmed to be having dysuria and pain in her lower abdomen, which are the main signs of the disease. The condition is also further confirmed by the positive outcomes for chlamydia based on the monoclonal AB test.

IDS 402 Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric Analyzing an Issue or Ev ent in Wellness Through the L enses of History and the H umanities

Overview: For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select an issue or event in wellness and critically analyze it through the four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. By viewing the issue/event through these lenses, you will gain insight into how the interconnected nature of wellness affects society, as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices, attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you. The Hard Life Of A Nurse

For this second milestone, due in Module Four, you will analyze your issue/event from Milestone One through the history and humanities lenses. This will provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue/event through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt.

Prompt: First, review the overviews and resources in Modules One through Three, as well as the IDS Four General Education Lenses document in the Reading and Resources section of Module One.

Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of history, and address the following:

 How does this issue/event interact with the history lens and impact social issues?  In what ways does the history lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the social issue(s) that inform your issue/event?

Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the humanities by exploring the following questions:

 How is this issue/event portrayed creatively in society? What is the message or commentary of this representation?  How does this representation interact with you in your personal and professional lives?

Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from history and one from the humanities. You must submit two papers in a single Word document.

Be sure to use evidence from research to support your analysis. Refer to course resources, the IDS 402 Research LibGuide (linked in the Start Here section of your course), and any other pertinent resources to support your responses. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor approval. Incorporate instructor feedback into your final project.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

I. Lens Analysis: In this section of your assignment, you will analyze your issue/event through two of the four general education lenses. A. Analyze your issue/event through the lens of history for determining its impact on various institutions. Utilize evidence from research to

support your analysis. B. Analyze your issue/event through the lens of the humanities for determining its impact on various institutions. Utilize evidence from research

to support your analysis.

Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Milestone Two should be submitted as two papers in a single Word document. The entire submission should be 2 to 4 pages in length. Use double-spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Support your responses with at least two sources for each lens from the assigned course resources or other scholarly sources located independently via the Shapiro Library. Cite your supporting sources in APA style.

Please note that the grading rubric for this milestone submission is not identical to that of the final project. The Final Project Part One Rubric will include an additional “Exemplary” category that provides guidance as to how you can go above and beyond “Proficient” in your final submission, as well as additional elements to address.
