Threshold standards
Assessment number In order to pass the assessment you will need to:
1 Demonstrate broad knowledge of the legal issues arising on a complex set of facts.

Demonstrate competence in drafting and preparation of statement of claim in relation to this.

Guidance on preparing your coursework:
When writing your coursework, you should keep in mind that the examiners will assess it on the basis of the following criteria:
• Content: This will consider how well you construct an argument. Remember that a coursework assignment should have an introduction, a middle

and a conclusion. Create a context for your work and focus on telling a story. Re-read your work to make sure it flows, and try to link your points

to create a strong narrative. An outline plan of the points you are going to make, drafted before you start writing, can help with this.
Remember that the assessment is testing your ability to convey your understanding of a complex legal issue, therefore you should attempt as far as

possible to explain the issues in your own words. Essays compiled from a series of quotes taken from a range of textbooks will not receive high

marks. Quotes can be useful, but use them sparingly for maximum impact.
• Research/ referencing this will principally be reflected in your bibliography, but a long list of texts will not be sufficient. The main way

in which the breadth of your research will be demonstrated will be in the depth of your discussions. Use your research as a tool to build up an in-

depth understanding of the topic which is under consideration. Don’t forget the importance of referencing your work correctly. Marks will be lost

for failure to adequately reference your work and MAY lead to accusations of academic misconduct. If in doubt, ask your Unit Co-ordinator.
• Analysis/Application In an essay question this heading crosses over with content, butyou must think about how you are using the knowledge

you have acquired to answer the question posed. This heading will also include consideration of the quality of your analysis of the legal issues and

the strength of the arguments/ points you are making. Try to direct your discussions towards the question asked instead of engaging in a general

discussion of the law.
• Presentation Do not underestimate the importance of presentation. This includes spelling and grammar. Of equal importance is the correct use

of abbreviations, presentation of case names and statutes and use of fonts. Law is about precision and detail, so a lack of care over presentation

of your work does not allow you to demonstrate your skills.

Marking criteria:
≥ 70% Detailed and accurate identification of the legal issues and application of the law to the facts, evidence of reading cases and academic

commentary where relevant; excellent analysis and fully reasoned discussion of the law and legal issues such as the coherence of the law and any

proposed legal reform; excellent written and presentational style including appropriate referencing.
60 – 69% Detailed and accurate identification of the legal issues and application of the law to the facts, evidence of reading cases and

academic commentary where relevant; reasoned analysis and discussion of the law and legal issues such as the coherence of the law and any proposed

legal reform; good written and presentational style including appropriate referencing.
50 – 59% Identification of most legal issues; accurate application of the law to the facts, evidence of reading cases, good written and

presentational style; adequate referencing. Limitations at this level may result from limited analysis or discussion of legal issues such as the

coherence of the law and any proposed legal reform; lack (or limited evidence) of engagement with relevant academic commentary.
40 – 49% Basic identification of most legal issues; generally accurate application of the law to the facts, although some issues may be

omitted; limitations at this level may be a lack of analysis or discussion of legal issues such as the coherence of the law and any proposed legal

reform; no evidence of reading relevant academic commentary; weak written and presentational style; poor referencing.
≤ 39% Incorrect identification of legal issues; failure to apply law to the facts or incorrect application of the law to the facts; lack of

analysis or discussion of the relevant law or legal issues such as the coherence of the law and any proposed legal reform; no evidence of reading

relevant academic commentary; poor written and presentational style; poor referencing.

Child Welfare and Family Preservation

 

Child Welfare and Family Preservation
An essential aspect of social work practice is the support and preservation of the family unit. Building and empowering strong, resilient families is a focus of social work practice within organizations and communities.

Social work research is an integral aspect of working with families. The research component of social work is essential to providing effective policies, programs, and services to support and empower families.

As a social worker, you need to be equipped with the knowledge and skills required for effectively working with families for child welfare. You also need to interpret and evaluate research findings involving family and child welfare.

For this Discussion, review this week’s resources. Consider the role of family preservation in child welfare, the research regarding family preservation, and the assumptions about foster care. Think about whether you agree with the research, and whether there are any gaps in your state foster care system that might contribute to the assumptions. Reflect on the benefits and shortfalls of permanency planning and family preservation and which approach you prefer.

***Post by Day 4 an explanation of the role of family preservation in child welfare. Then, explain whether research supports the assumption that foster care is harmful for children, as presented by the cornerstone argument for family preservation. Be sure to include whether you agree with this assumption and why you agree or disagree. Subsequently, identify the gaps in your state foster care system that contribute to the idea that foster care is harmful to children. Then, compare the benefits and shortfalls of permanency planning and family preservation. Finally, provide a description of whether you prefer the permanency or the family preservation approach as a child welfare social worker and why you prefer it.

 

Hispanic Culture and Civilization: Analysis of a Mexican Cultural Expression

Analysis of a Mexican Cultural Expression (painting, sculpture, literary text, play, popular religious expression, etc.) THE MEXICAN MURALIST

MOVEMENT IS THE CULTURAL EXPRESSION THAT NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN ABOUT

Your task is to explain how the chosen cultural expression (artwork, text, etc.) exemplifies or modifies or rejects (etc.) one of the key

cultural phenomena that we have discussed in course readings or discussions. MEXICANIDAD is the cultural phenomena I would like to use.

So essentially how the MEXICAN MURALIST MOVEMENT exemplifies, modifies or rejects the MEXICANIDAD cultural pheomena of Mexico.

The Mexican Muralist Movement was goverment backed artwork to tell history and get the Mexican people on their side.

Potential information PRI/Partido Revolucionario Institucional and how they felt/played into both the Mexican Muralist Movement and Mexicandad

Potentially talking about the work and lives of muralist Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros
Humanities 3321: Hispanic Culture and Civilization
Composition 2 Analysis of a Mexican Cultural Expression

Write 3-5 pages on the topic explained below. All compositions should be the work of the student. You should consult other students or the

professor regarding spelling, vocabulary and grammatical questions, and about organization of your ideas. You should summarize and include the

ideas of published sources in the framework of your own analysis of the structure. However, plagiarism is strictly forbidden and will be

reported to the proper university authorities. Compositions must be typed and double-spaced using Times New Roman, 12, and standard (1.25”)

margins. Be sure to organize your composition in essay form, including an introduction with thesis statement(s), paragraphs to develop your

idea in the body of the paper, and a concluding paragraph. You should cite at least three different published sources to support your ideas.

Internet sources do not count for this requirement, but do note them appropriately if you use material from credible websites (use caution and

good sense when citing from the Internet). When citing ideas or passages from Fuentes’s The Buried Mirror or other sources, introduce the

paraphrase or quotation appropriately and indicate source and page number immediately after the quotation or paraphrase in the following manner:

[Example of a paraphrase]: Hill explains that the many of the non-Muslim Peoples of the Book converted to Islam, probably to avoid paying

religious taxes. (Hill 29)
[example of a direct quotation] As Fuentes points out in The Buried Mirror, “the matador is a tragic representation of man’s relation to

nature.” (Fuentes 23)

[another paraphrase:] Although there is some debate about the exact date of the Iberians’ first appearance in the peninsula, virtually everyone

agrees that it took place long before the arrival of the Phoenicians. (Cultural Atlas 75)

Include complete bibliographical information in a short list of ‘Works Cited’ at the end of the paper (author, title, publisher, place and date

of publication, as well as page numbers of chapters or articles in journals or collections: see UHD library cite on ‘Writing and Citing’ for

more information, http://www.uhd.edu/library/guides/citingwriting.html).

Topic: Analysis of a Mexican Cultural Expression (painting, sculpture, literary text, play, popular religious expression, etc.)

You may choose any Mexican cultural expression that we have discussed in class or that has been mentioned in course readings. Your task is to

explain how the chosen cultural expression (artwork, text, etc.) exemplifies or modifies or rejects (etc.) one of the key cultural phenomena

that we have discussed in course readings or discussions. To find an appropriate cultural phenomenon to explore through your chosen cultural

expression, review the unit vocabulary lists from the period in which your cultural expression was created. For example, if you choose to talk

about the ancient Mesoamerican legacy in Mexican Hispanic culture (something like the pyramids of Teotihuacan, or the statue of Chac Mool from

the Toltec-Maya culture, you could focus on the importance of blood/human sacrifice to pre-Columbian Mesoamerican culture, or their theocratic

and hierarchical nature (etc.): try to choose a phenomenon that has lasting impact on the development of Hispanic culture in Mexico.

Other possible cultural phenomena you can use to analyze would include popular religion, cultural resistance (or cultural assimilation) during

the Hispanization of Mexico, the Hispanization of Mexico, the development of Mexicanidad (during the colonial period, after Independence, during

the Mexican Revolution and after, etc.), the colonial caste system before and after Independence, revolutionary culture, social Darwinism or

positivism, Indigenism, the Mestizo nation of the PRI, Magical Realism, etc.

Format: In addition to the requirements mentioned above about font and margins, be sure to include the following standard practices in good

academic writing:

• Introduction with thesis statement in the first paragraph: you should indicate which cultural phenomenon you are using to explain the

cultural content and context of the artwork, literary text, or other cultural expression. You should include a clear definition of the cultural

phenomenon that you are using to analyze the work in the first or second paragraph of the paper. By identifying its basic traits, you can

organize the rest of your paper by showing how those traits appear in the work you are analyzing.
• Materials and argument are organized in logical paragraphs (usually no more than six to eight sentences long and no less than three);

organize your thoughts logically!
• All cited materials are properly sourced with sufficient bibliographical information in MLA format (see notes above and consult the link

called ‘Citing & Writing” on the UHD website for more about MLA style : http://www.uhd.edu/library/guides/citingwriting.html )
• An appropriate conclusion that follows from the evidence and arguments presented in the body of the paper; it is recommended that you

relate your analysis to the main cultural process of cultural syncretism that has produced so much of modern Mexican cultural identity (if

possible/ appropriate)
• An appropriate title that identifies the cultural phenomenon and the cultural expression (artwork, literary text, etc.) you have

analyzed. A good title is like a brief summary of your thesis. Some examples: Cultural Assimilation in Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s First

Dream; Cultural Resistance to Hispanization in Mexican Santeria; Elite Creole Culture and Velasco’s Landscape Painting (etc.)

Some other items to consider including in your analysis (bolded items highly recommended):

• Place of origin, historical period of creation, name of the creator (if applicable) of the cultural object/ expression that you are

analyzing
• Stylistic traits, details about the work’s content, form, use, etc.
• Brief cultural-historical overview that explains the context of this work
• Vocabulary from our units should be used as appropriate to refer to different phenomena or details in your cultural expression
• Concluding explanation of how this particular phenomenon reveals the syncretic nature of Mexican culture, with both Indigenous and

Hispanic elements blended into something new

Warrants

“In view of the increasing interest in health in general, and nutrition and exercise in particular, do you think that universities and

colleges should impose physical education requirements? if so, what form should they take? If not, why not? What warrant underlies your

position?”

Another warrants question: “Both state and federal governments have been embroiled in controversies concerning the rights of citizens to

engage in harmful practices. In Massachusetts, for example, a mandatory seat-belt law was repealed by voters who considered the law an

infringement of their freedom. (It was later reinstated.)” (p. 236). What principles do you believe should guide government regulation of

dangerous practices? In other words, what are your warrants regarding situations in which individuals wish to engage in dangerous

practices? What are your warrants based on?

Health Care

write an essay with cited research sources. They will be a minimum of 500 words and a maximum of 600 words per essay, and you may lose

points for going too long! The rubric states an exemplary essay will be concise. The topics for the issues will be:
Healthcare: The U.S. healthcare system has been a controversial topic for decades. Here are the aspects and questions to address for this

essay:
1. Identify a current issue being debated about the American healthcare system.
2. Explain two competing solutions to this problem.
3. Evaluate which one is preferable.
4. Address the responsibilities of each level of government, which are federal, state, and local. (Most of the essay will be about the

federal government).
5. Address the responsibilities of each of the three branches of the federal government.

Works Cited 3 min with current articles on issue.
Essays should be written in the third person perspective. (Avoid using “I, me, my, mine, we, us, our, you, your”).
ay, choose a problem within the topic. What are two competing solutions to this problem? Explain which one is better and why. How will the

different levels of government be involved (federal, state and local)? This will require research into news recent news articles (published

within four weeks of each assignment’s due date). For each respective week, include relevant information from the required readings for

that week too.

Project Management Life Cycle

The focus of the project life cycle assignment is to serve in the role as a project manager and utilize an interprofessional approach to develop an

informatics project pertinent to the healthcare setting where you are conducting your practicum. The project does not need to be on a large scale. Many

projects are designed as building blocks to a larger project. Determine a project based upon your professional interest and/or in collaboration with your

preceptor.

Using course materials, develop a focused plan using the criteria provided. This project should be presented in a word table using a landscape format.

Initiation and planning will be provided in NSG 568, then execution and evaluation/closure will be NSG 569. Please use the same document and build during

the practicum courses. At the end of NSG 569 you will turn in this completed project with the combined work of NSG 568 and 569.

It is a possibility that you may not be able to implement your project in the healthcare organization. But you will fully develop a plan which is

implementable and then for the evaluation and project closure phase you can outline your planned outcomes or what may have happened along the way which

required reevaluation of the original design.

Please follow the criteria set forth below. APA format is not expected in this assignment.
