A student expressed a concern about being able to write 5 pages for the Plato paper. Here is what I suggested.

1) Make sure you are able to explain the TWO answers Plato gives to the nature of the philosophical life: first pre-Phaedrus, and then the answer from the Phaedrus.

2) Don’t just give the summary answer. Be able to explain WHY he gives the answers that he does. That is, what are his reasons for give those answers? That should get you to five double-spaced pages.

.As presented by Nussbaum, what, according to Plato, is the philosophical life, and why is it preferable to the non-philosophical life? You will want to leave some room in your paper to indicate how Plato’s own answer to this question changes.

Once again, you will be wanting to draw heavily on The Fragility of Goodness. Papers that try to answer this question using resources other than this book are discouraged and will receive significantly lower grades.

• Describe a culturally responsive intervention with a Hispanic client from your field placement and how it was specifically client-centered and evidence-based.
• Describe networking experiences and how you are or will navigate community organizations designed to serve Hispanic children and families.
• Describe a case where you collaborated with a Hispanic client and how you incorporated culturally significant familial or community relationships in the intervention process. Include use of mutually agreed on outcomes, and how you evaluated effectiveness of the intervention.

You have spent six weeks exploring theories of nursing. These represent the “how” of what we do as nurses. This week we enter a higher level of thought and explore the “why” of what we do. Present a personal nursing philosophy. Apply what you have read throughout the course and explore the literature on nursing philosophy. While Fawcett was not a nursing theorist, she is a nursing philosopher and her Metaparadigm of Nursing approaches philosophy over theory. Once you have discussed your philosophy, identify a theoretical framework (not the middle-range theories but the underlying assumptions in that framework) that fits your philosophy. Compare and contrast your philosophy and the chosen framework.  Describe a possible situation in which the framework may conflict or not fit your philosophy. While it is an important skill to be able to match a theory with a situation, it is also critical to understand when a theory or framework does not fit a situation.

Choose a podcast to listen to that is network, network security, or degree related. For example, if you are an accounting major, it is fine to choose an accounting podcast. No personal or entertainment podcasts.

Submit a 1 page executive summary per podcast. The summary should include the title of the podcast, the date, and the speaker(s).

Research what an executive summary should look like. It should be a formal document. If you do not format it like an executive summary, it will be scored a 0.

Include a brief summary of the podcast and what you found useful.

Submit your executive summary in Canvas.

The goals of this exercise are to improve your writing skills and introduce you to methods of continuing education. This should not look like a book report. I want to know what you found interesting / useful. If it is written like a play by play recording of the podcast, it will be marked down accordingly.

Ask and answer a discussion question that builds on what we discussed during the week (you need to include the link to the information you reference when you try to search the question online to back what you asked (the discussion questions needs to be at minimum 300 words each and the responses should be 250 each). The discussion questions I chose to focus on this week was: “What are some consequences of fecal microbiomes transplants in treating human diseases?”, and “How does pregnancy effect/influence the remodeling of gut microbiome and further metabolic changes? ” All of these questions need a 450 word response EACH accompanied by their own link. The 2 responses to two students questions (the .jpeg files attached) also need to be accompanied by a link that you used to attempt to answer their requisitions. Will include an example of my own work and two discussions that you need to respond to.
