The RN to BSN program at Grand Canyon University meets the requirements for clinical competencies as defined by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), using nontraditional experiences for practicing nurses. These experiences come in the form of direct and indirect care experiences in which licensed nursing students engage in learning within the context of their hospital organization, specific care discipline, and local communities.

Note: This is an individual assignment. Applying what you have learned thus far, develop a community teaching proposal designed to address the needs of your community.

Select one of the following as the focus for the teaching plan:

Primary Prevention/Health Promotion Secondary Prevention/Screenings for a Vulnerable Population Bioterrorism/Disaster Environmental Issues Complete the “Community Teaching Work Plan Proposal.” This will help you organize your plan and create an outline for the written assignment.

After completing the teaching proposal, review the teaching plan with a community health and public health provider in your local community. Request feedback (strengths and opportunities for improvement) from the provider. Complete the “Community Teaching Experience” form. APA format is required for essays only. Solid academic writing is always expected. For all assignment delivery options, documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are not required to submit this assignment to Turnitin.

/in /by

Consider the decision facing a land owner who has the opportunity to convert a parcel of undeveloped land into farmland. There are two periods, period 0 and period. The conversion is irreversible but can be deferred.

If the land is not converted and remains undeveloped in period 0, then the land owner earns a present value of U0 = 40 in period 0 from the collection of maple syrup and other forest products. If the land is left undeveloped in period 1, then the land owner earns a profit with a present value U1 = 110.

If the land were converted to farmland in period 0, the land would produce a profit in period 0 with a present value of F0 = 60. However, in period 0, the present value of the profit obtained from farmland in period 1 is uncertain due to the uncertainty in the prices of farm produce. With probability 1/2, the period 1 profit would have a high present value, FH = 180. With probability 1/2, the profit would have a low present value of FL = 40.

For simplicity, we assume that the cost of converting the land to farmland is zero.

The land owner has three possible decisions in period 0. (1) The land owner can choose to abandon the conversion opportunity in period 0. (2) The land owner can choose to convert the land to farmland in period 0. (3) Finally, the land owner can choose to defer conversion, waiting until the uncertainty in the profitability of farm produce is resolved at the beginning of period 1 and then deciding whether or not to convert the land. By deferring the decision to convert the land, the farm owner learns whether he or she will receive FH or FL in period 1 before the owner decides whether or not to convert the land in period 1. Of course, if the land owner defers the decision to convert the land until period 1, then the land owner receives only the present value U0 rather than the larger present value F0 in period 0.

The land owner is assumed to be risk neutral and wishes to maximise the expected net present value obtained from the parcel of land.

Please show work.

(i) Draw a decision tree representing the decision problem facing the land owner.

(ii).What is the optimal policy for the land owner to follow regarding the conversion of his or her land? What is the expected net present value produced by the land when the land owner follows the optimal policy? Carefully explain your answers.

(iii) Suppose that the opportunity to defer the conversion decision until period 1 were not available. What would be the optimal choice for the land owner in this case? Briefly explain your answer.

(iv) Suppose now that, in period 0, the land owner must pay an amount D in order to keep available the option to defer the conversion decision to period 1. What is the maximum amount that the land owner should be willing to pay to keep available the opportunity to defer conversion? Explain your answer.

(v) Suppose now that, as in questions (i) to (iii), D = 0. Suppose also that, before any decision has been made in period 0, the value of FL falls so that FL < 40. By how much, if at all, is this fall in the net present value of farm produce likely to reduce the expected net present value obtained from the land when the land owner uses the optimal conversion policy? Explain your answer.

(vi) In a few paragraphs, explain why uncertainty may be increase the value of an investment when there is an option to defer the start of the investment.

This assignment provides the opportunity for you to apply the principles of universal design for learning (UDL) in the design of instruction and assessment. Recall that UDL provides access to the curriculum for students with a wide variety of abilities and background. Therefore, UDL aligns with inclusionary practices found in today’s schools. Furthermore, assistive technology supports the UDL framework to provide a means of learning for students with disabilities. To prepare for this assignment, review the CAST (2010) video, UDL at a Glance  (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.and review the Explore model UDL lesson plans (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (2011) web page, both of which are listed in the Week Three Required Resources. Be sure to also review the Week Three Instructor Guidance page for additional intellectual elaboration on UDL and assistance with this assignment.

Begin preparing for this assignment by selecting a specific model lesson from the Explore Model UDL Lesson Plans (2011) page of the CAST.org website.

Consider the following scenario:

You have been hired by a large company with branch offices around the country to assist with rollout of a new companywide compliance system.

While initially the focus was on implementation of the technology, it was found that success will require at least 10 hours of training over two days for all managers across the country on both the use of the new platform as well as a host of new compliance policies being introduced.

Of the options discussed, it was generally agreed that the training should be hands-on and conducted in-person at a central location. This will obviously require getting organizational buy-in as not all managers are going to be willing to commit to taking time out from their normal responsibilities just for some training.

In addition, such large scale centralized training has not been done before by this company; therefore, the CEO wants feedback from participants to evaluate the effectiveness of any training sessions.

As a result, your manager has given you the responsibility to develop an outline for a proposed project that would meet this upcoming need for arranging and conducting a two-day training session.

This scenario will continue throughout the first three weeks with all weeks being submitted along with the Week 3 assignment. You are expected to apply any feedback provided by the instructor to these finalized documents.

Submit a 2- to 3-page memo that includes the following:

  • Names the project
  • Briefly describes the project
  • Identifies potential stakeholders directly or indirectly involved
  • Specifies the overall objective and any outcomes for this project
  • Details how success will be evaluated
  • Highlights what is needed to ascertain the Measurable Organizational Value (MOV) of this project.

You will need to make some assumptions (it is even encouraged), but the assumptions must be documented.
