There comes a time as an instructor when you must face criticism from a frustrated student. Rather than responding defensively, it is often more helpful to try understanding the student’s underlying issues. How might self-efficacy influence the student’s issues? How might your response affect the student’s level of self-efficacy?

For this Assignment, review this week’s Learning Resources. Then read the message posted by Jamie, a “student” in your online introductory psychology class (you have not heard from her previously on this issue). Consider how you might respond to Jamie in order to improve her level of self-efficacy. Finally, think about how theories of self-efficacy might support your approach.

Jamie: I am so confused by this class. I read and reread the assignments, but I just don’t get it. I really don’t think the instructor likes me, (he or she) just isn’t giving clear instructions, and the book is so hard. Does anyone else feel this way?

Submit your response to Jamie’s post. Your document should include the following parts:

• Jamie’s original post
• A response to Jamie’s post that may positively impact Jamie’s self-efficacy
• An explanation of how you think your response might increase Jamie’s self-efficacy; apply self-efficacy theory to support your explanation

Background: According to Kirk (2016), typography will have a significant role in your visualizations. You have to be careful with your text, but you must also be concerned with how the text looks. This then leads to color and functional harmony. You must provide the balance of colors in your visualizations (Kirk, 2016).  The harmony of colors you select during design will impact many aspects of the overall visualization.

Assignment: Write a research paper that contains the following:

• Discuss Typography and the importance of appearance of text
• Discuss the following color harmonies: (Usage, Pros, and Cons)
• Complementary colors
• Analogous colors
• Triadic colors

CultureReady. (2016). Successful cross-cultural negotiation: Korea [Video file]. Retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dw7Kc3PCXgQ Review the video on successful cross cultural negotiation. Which of the adaptations by the Americans do you think was key in leading to a successful negotiation? Is there potential pitfall here in that the cultural adaptation seems to be to the perceived national culture of South Korea? Wouldn’t the South Koreans have learned about and prepared themselves to deal with potential American missteps? Even with all of the steps taken to respect South Korean cultural norms, wasn’t the key to the negotiation’s success that the Americans’ offer was better than the South Koreans’ BATNA? What are your thoughts on some of these questions or other issues that you have noticed?

Write a paper in which you examine visual information processing.

Address the following in your paper:

Describe visual information processing.

Explain two conditions that impair visual information processing.

Discuss current trends in the research of visual information processing and how they advance the understanding of visual information processing.

For this Discussion, you will review the case study scenario from this module’s media of two teachers sharing reading strategies they have implemented within their classrooms for Jamal. It is apparent that some of the strategies are working, whereas others are not. You will assume the role of a special education leader in which you provide guidance and direction in determining the most appropriate evidence-based literacy interventions based on Jamal’s assessment data.

To prepare:

· Review the case study video and the Module’s Learning Resources.

· Enter the Grand City interactive community and locate West Ridge Middle School. View the case study video titled “Implementing Evidence Based Practices.”

· Consider the following as you review the case study video for this module:

o Both teachers have shared evidence-based reading interventions that they have used with Jamal; some are working, whereas others are not. You are tasked with analyzing the evidence-based interventions and determining which interventions are appropriate to meet Jamal’s individual needs based on the data presented.

· Analyze Jamal’s data summary sheet displaying his needs and abilities in reading. Think about the evidence-based literacy interventions discussed. Consider the most appropriate interventions for Jamal, based on the data provided.

An evaluation of the reading intervention strategies identified by both teachers in the video. Include the following in your evaluation:

An analysis of what you believe the problem is between the two different classrooms. What are possible solutions to ensure fidelity of implementation across settings?

As the special education leader in charge, an explanation of how would you structure this meeting to relatively analyze the data and bring the two teachers to consensus on the most effective approach for fidelity of the implementation for the outlined evidence-based practices. 

Ms. G., a 23-year-old Hispanic female, came to the clinic for an annual Pap Smear and complains of having a thick, cheesy, white vaginal discharge with itching that has been present for one week. She denies burning during urination. Ms. G. is sexually active in a monogamous relationship with her boyfriend of three years. She states that she and her boyfriend have no other sexual partners. She denies fever, chills, abdominal pain, or pelvic pain. Her last menstrual period was three weeks ago. She does not have any children and is currently attending a local community college and does not have any health insurance. She states “I don’t know how this could happen to me; I am only seeing my boyfriend”. She indicates she is satisfied sexually and she uses oral contraceptives.

1. Based on her presenting signs, what other questions would you elicit?
2. How would you demonstrate knowledge of cultural sensitivity/humility in approach to this patient?
3. What would you assess?
4. What could be the problem?

The Reflexivity Tool is to help you situate yourself relative to your research topic and identify your potential assets and biases. Think hard and be honest when you fill it out. You will use this information in the methodology section of your final paper for this course. Below are indications regarding what each column and row covers:

Personal location: What is your position relative to each dimension (research interest, biography, or socio-economic position)? Where do you stand? Think of your life experience as well as your opinions. Just state your personal location, don’t try to analyze it, since this is what the other two columns are for.

Potential advantages: How may this help you conduct research?

Potential barriers: How may this make it more difficult for you to gain objective information and come to valid conclusions?

Research interest: How interested (or not) are you in this project? What do you hope to find? What is your past experience with conducting research? What is your knowledge of the topic? How do you feel about conducting interviews or observations?

Biography and/or beliefs: Do you have personal experiences that relate to this topic? Do you have strong personal beliefs about it? Do you have beliefs or experiences that may influence how you approach this topic?

Socio-economic position: What is your social status? Think, for instance, about your gender, race/ethnicity, age, level of education, occupation, income, religion, sexual orientation, and marital status. How does it compare to the socio-economic status of the people you are going to interview or come in contact with in your observations?

• Review the Resources and reflect on the mission of state/regional boards of nursing as the protection of the public through the regulation of nursing practice.
• Consider how key regulations may impact nursing practice.
• Review key regulations for nursing practice of your state’s/region’s board of nursing and those of at least one other state/region and select at least two APRN regulations to focus on for this Discussion..

Post a comparison of at least two APRN board of nursing regulations in your state/region with those of at least one other state/region. Describe how they may differ. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain how the regulations you selected may apply to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) who have legal authority to practice within the full scope of their education and experience. Provide at least one example of how APRNs may adhere to the two regulations you selected.
