Math/Physic/Economic/Statistic Problems

The following data is provided about the number of species spotted in the whole area of a specific reserve and in a specific small forest that is a part of that reserve.

The table below provides a breakdown of the species spotted.

Small Forest (SF)

Name Number

Species 1 0

Species 2 23,228

Species 3 56,252

Species 4 202,913

Species 5 492,103

Species 6 1,701,090

Species 7 1,262,898

Species 8 919,113

Species 9 386,912

Species 10 194,489

Total 5,239,030

Reserve – Whole Area (RW)

Name Number

Species 1 0

Species 2 24,120

Species 3 60,028

Species 4 220,182

Species 5 539,691

Species 6 1,856,706

Species 7 1,377,018

Species 8 1,004,087

Species 9 423,505

Species 10 210,716

Total 5,716,053

Using these data provided answer the following questions:

1.a) Create a table that shows the percentage contribution of each species to the total number spotted for the Reserve as a whole (RW) (e.g species X accounts for 3.71% of the total RW species number).

b) Create a table that shows the percentage contribution of each species to the total numbers spotted for SF (two decimal points needed).

c) Compare which species contribute more to the total numbers of species in RW and compare them the ones for SF?

2. Create a new data set that will include the values for the species spotted in RW but not in the SF area.

Create a table like the ones provided with these new data set and name it ORA (other reserve areas), and calculate the percentage contributions as in question 1.

3. Find the minimum, maximum, range, median and mean average for RW, ORA and SF data sets (not for the percentages worked in question 1 but for the absolute values like the ones given in the original tables and the one you calculate in question 2). Compare the mean average of the three groups. What do you notice?

4. Create three different graphs for the 3 different data sets (RW, ORA and SF) showing the Species name on x-axis and the number spotted on y-axis.

Create a combined graph showing the Species on x-axis and the number spotted on y-axis for all data sets. Which one do you find more useful and why is that?

5. Find the variance, standard deviation and standard error, skewness and kurtosis for RW, ORA and SF data sets. Describe and compare the skewness and kurtosis for the three data sets. What do you notice?

Explain how this disposition would assist you in incorporating Ana’s language, culture, and family background into planning and delivering instruction that meets Ana’s academic and social-emotional development needs.

[Revision] Benchmark – Case Study: PLAAFP and Annual Goals

Part 1: Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance (PLAAFP)

For this benchmark assignment, you will use the “Ana Case Study” to write a 250-500 word PLAAFP.

Your PLAAFP should include:

Student academic strengths

Evaluations

Performance in classes

Potential influences of language, culture, and family background

Strengths, preferences, and interests in nonacademic areas

Any other relevant issues

Part 2: Annual Goals

Write two measurable academic goals and two measurable behavioral goals for Ana. Each goal should include:

A specific, measurable skill/behavior to be achieved.

A specific measurement tool or assessment strategy for measuring performance on the goal.

Part 3: Rationale

Provide a 500-750 word rationale that clearly defends how each annual goal, assessment tool or strategy, and action steps are appropriate for Ana, based on the information and data in the PLAAFP.

In addition, using the “College of Education Professional Dispositions of Learners,” identify a disposition that you, as a special education teacher, would want to especially demonstrate with Ana and her family.

Explain how this disposition would assist you in incorporating Ana’s language, culture, and family background into planning and delivering instruction that meets Ana’s academic and social-emotional development needs.

In addition, what steps would you recommend to Ana, her family, and the IEP team for Ana to accomplish her goals?

What barriers prohibit the patient from opening up regarding the abuse, and how can you address these barriers through the assessment process? What is your responsibility if you suspect abuse?

Discussion: Patient Safety and Abuse

Patient safety is of utmost importance. Put yourself in this scenario.

While you are completing an admission, you notice a number of unusual bruises and several abrasions on the patient.

After reviewing the module resources, consider how you would approach the topic with the patient.

What barriers prohibit the patient from opening up regarding the abuse, and how can you address these barriers through the assessment process? What is your responsibility if you suspect abuse?

What educational resources are available to you as a nurse in your current setting or in your state? What educational resources are available to the patient in your setting?

Woman Activism

The “wave model” is a common conceptual framework for discussing the history of

women’s activism. This wave has extended over the twentieth century in three

approximate times period. First-wave feminism (1900-1920); second-wave feminism

(1960-1980); and, third-wave feminism (1990-). In approximately five (5) to six (6)

pages double spaced, explain the value of this model. Discuss 3 ideas, providing clear,

specific examples to support your claims. Why might this model be problematic?

Discuss 3 ideas, providing clear, specific examples to support your claims. Do you

believe that the ‘wave model’ as an approach to understanding women’s history is a

Develop the skills required to demonstrate self-management in a variety of settings.

ASSIGNMENT BRIEF

This is a 1000 (+ or – 10%) word case study which is ideally based upon the episode of care that you have completed in practice, in you MYEPAD.

IF this has not yet been undertaken, focus on a patient or client for whom you have provided an episode of care during your placement.
Learning Outcomes:

1. Under supervision, begin to develop basic competence skills in assessment, and the safe delivery of foundational practice.

2. Develop the skills required to demonstrate self-management in a variety of settings.

Through the case study, acknowledgement of the important elements of patient care, as well as building on one’s knowledge base can be demonstrated.

Identify the interrelationships between religion and philosophical worldviews.

Trigonometry

Note on Research Project:
Your mark will be based on your critical reading of the material, your writing ability (especially citing specific material which influences or supports your ideas —  use MLA citations), your understanding of the vocabulary and concepts, and how well you can identify the interrelationships between religion and philosophical worldviews. do not just reiterate or describe the material from the academic sources, but rather, subject it to critical assessment and evaluation (including material from a practitioner’s perspective).

You may use ‘First Person’ in this project (in fact want to hear YOUR VOICE).

Make note if there are any differences between the sources (academic or practice perspective) in their interpretation or presentation of “factual” material. Also, make note if there are controversies associated with the topic, or specific aspects of it. Pointing out these ‘controversies’ makes for a great ‘Discussion Paper’.

Identify the steps you took to identify a funding source, describe in as much detail as is available the parameters of the grant, and evaluate the fit between your project’s needs and the grant’s target.

Identifying a Funding Source – Grant writing
In this assignment, research the funding sites given in this and previous units to find a source that might fund your project.

Provide specific details on the funding source, including the name, type (public or private), affiliations, mission, amount of grant, list of requirements, and eligibility.

You may not find all this information (especially for non-government grants) on the grant search sites.

You may need to search the Internet for information on the organization.

It is always best to know as much as you can about the funding sources before applying.

In a 2–4 page paper, identify the steps you took to identify a funding source, describe in as much detail as is available the parameters of the grant, and evaluate the fit between your project’s needs and the grant’s target.

Finally, evaluate whether there are any potential ethical issues between the grant’s parameters and requirements and the NASW code of ethics.

Consider where these factors align, but also where they diverge. Use scholarly sources to back your arguments regarding fit.
