Instructions

You can submit your paper in Question and Answer format. In other words, list the questions and provide a short answer to each.

Which single achievement in Epidemiology is of particular interest to you? (Some examples include Smallpox, HIV/AIDS, Tobacco Use, and Cholera). Please write 2–3 sentences maximum.
Briefly describe that achievement in Epidemiology (1–2 paragraphs). In what era did this achievement occur? Be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion.
Briefly describe one important tool that can be used to measure its occurrence in a population. Examples of Tools include surveys, surveillance, and biological monitoring. Please write 2–3 paragraphs about this, and be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion.
Please identify one specific source of public health data on that issue and write one paragraph about it. Provide a description of the source and a link (i.e., hyperlink or URL) directly to the data source.
Incorporating what you learned in this module about risk and rates, what would you say was one major factor that influenced the achievement of this occurrence? Please write 2–3 paragraphs and be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion

The Session Long Project entails you going through the process of influencing policymakers. Review the Oklahoma Rehabilitation Council Advocacy Toolbox. Read the “Writing to government officials or lobbyists”and the “Opposing a Proposal” and the “Supporting a Proposal” sample letters. Additionally, read “Changing public opinion” for this assignment.
For this SLP assignment, choose whether you will be writing on “opposing a proposal” or “supporting a proposal.”
Choose three key elements from “Changing public opinion” page and discuss how these elements relate to influencing policymakers (one paragraph).
Discuss the role of collaboration in health communication and advocacy.
Write a one-page letter, that encompasses the information from the above 3 bullets (on “opposing a proposal” or “supporting a proposal”).
Note: The first two pages must address above items 1-4. The third page is a one-page letter on “opposing a proposal” or “supporting a proposal” and encompasses the information from your required readings.

Length: 3 pages (excluding the cover page and the reference list).

Your task is to 1) watch a movie, any movie, as long as it is a full-length feature film intended for entertainment and NOT a documentary or video intended to further your learning in any way, 2) write a paper at least 3 pages in length (not counting the cover page or literature cited page) about how the issues in the movie relate to ANYTHING we covered in Brain and Behavior (Chapters 1 through 15). You can even go one step beyond and do some independent research (on the PubMed or Google Scholar databases, for instance) to include information that builds upon what we’ve learned in class.

The paper must be in APA format, Times New Roman, 12pt, double-spaced with 1-inch margins, and

with NO ILLUSTRATIONS. Because this is a somewhat unconventional assignment, I’ve posted an example paper, graded with comments, to give you an idea of what to do. It’s entitled “My name is Charlie B., and I’m a chocoholic: themes of decision-making and dopaminergic reward in Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory”. It received an 85% B. I’ve included grading comments so you can see how this paper could be improved. Because it has been given to you as an example, you will NOT be allowed to write your paper on Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory! You must choose your own movie.

As noted in the “comments” shown on the graded example paper, your paper must include at least 10 points on which the movie relates to Brain and Behavior.(I will provide powerpoints from the chapters discussed to you in the additional document file) Please underline and bold your correlations so that your paper will be easier to grade. Please use APA format for all your citations and include a literature cited page. You are required to use proper citation/reference format for any quotes or paraphrased information that is taken from any source including my audio lectures. You should include at least 5 references from outside of class – these should be scholarly journal articles and books. In addition to this, you must properly reference the movie and your textbook in APA format.

Keys to the Assignment
The key aspects of this assignment that are to be covered in your 6- to 7-page paper include the following:

After completing research in the library, apply the Grand Strategy Matrix to determine what you believe should be the optimal grand strategy (or blend of grand strategies) that should be pursued by Barnes and Noble.

Discuss the assumptions you have made in applying the Grand Strategy Matrix (i.e., rapid vs. slow growth; strong vs. weak competitive position).

Next, apply the BCG Matrix to Barnes and Noble’s core strategic choices (i.e., the company’s use of brick-and-mortar stores versus Internet business).
Compare the results from the BCG Matrix and the Grand Strategy Matrix: Does your use of the BCG Matrix support or refute your choice of grand strategy (or strategies) as selected by the Grand Strategy Matrix? Discuss.
