An effective nurse educator has current, researched knowledge of active learning methods to use in the educational setting. Popular active learning strategies allow students to collaborate with peers and participate in higher order thinking. The purpose of this assignment is to compile an annotated bibliography of active learning strategies within your practicum setting. Provide a 15-entry annotated bibliography of peer-reviewed/scholarly literature related to your chosen practicum topic and active learning teaching methodologies. Include a 150-word summary for each resource that includes the following: Description of the relevancy of the source. Description of the accuracy of the source. Description of the quality of the source. Prepare this assessment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required. This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Create a word document where you will reflect upon your thoughts and feelings as you prepared this document for yourself – again DO NOT TURN IN THE ACTUAL LIVING WILL DOCUMENT TO ME …..just create a paper outlining your thoughts and feelings about completing this. Within your paper that you turn in to me – make sure to include your thoughts (how you would answer the questions – even if you cannot have children) on each of the following areas from the Advanced Directives link (Legacy Writer) in your assignment submission: 1. Terminal Condition 2. Permanently Unconscious 3. Tube Feeding 4. The Pregnancy Scenario 5. Pain 6. Euthanasia 7. Organ Donation Continue through each step. If you do not understand a question click on the area that is blue with a line under it and a box will pop up to define the term to you. Failure to comment on these areas will cost you considerable points. *** Please make sure to comment on each of these (a sentence or two) from your personal point of view. *** You may want to download and print the Living Will for your own personal records. If you decide to keep the Living Will document, remember to Initial, date and sign your document where requested. You need 2 witnesses to sign. Page 5 “Attestation of Witnesses” explains who CANNOT sign as a witness. Please read the guides and guidelines in the document box to fully understand the living will agents, signing and more information. Provide someone (or more than one person) with a copy of this document. Also, store a copy in a safe place (ex. fire proof safe or with an attorney). Again – this does not get turned into me – Keep it for your own personal records. (2) In addition to the above it is also a good idea to have a Last Will and Testament (specify where your items and estate go to upon your death). The below link will help you understand how to create your own. It is not free but you are allowed to go through each step until a form of payment is requested. Therefore, go through each step to help complete your own which can be done by using Microsoft Word. Last Will and Testament (Links to an external site.) Fill in your information as requested and continue through each step. Use this to help complete your own word document. Print your personal document and have 2 or 3 witnesses to sign it. Please remember a witness is someone who does not receive anything (ex. a beneficiary), must be a legal adult and of sound mind (know and understand what they are signing). Provide someone (or more than one person) with a copy of this document. Also, store a copy in a safe place (ex. fire proof safe or with an attorney).AGAIN – This does not get turned into me – Keep it for your own personal records. (3) After completing this second aspect of the assignment, write about how you felt completing it as well as the living will above, how it relates to the textbook content, and why it was important to this class. Generally 5 to 6 fully developed paragraphs (500 words minimum) is sufficient. This is the only item you will submit to me for grading (your thoughts and feelings about completing the Living Will as well as the Last Will and Testament and how this assignment relates to the material in the text and the course).

Description

These questions, particularly those of commercial film production have been discussed extensively, beginning with attempting to identify film makers as authors and artists responsible for a film’s production through Francois Truffaut’s Auteur Theory. This was further expanded upon by Andrew Sarris in the United States and continues to be discussed to this day among journalists such as Jesse J. Prinz, Chris Shackleton, Jacquelyn McBain and Armond White as well as by author Rudolf Arnheim in his book Film as Art. There are a number of journalists who have dealt written pieces on video art, Michael Zurakhinsky and James W. Yood being chief among them, however I believe the books of Michael Rush (Video Art), Stuart Comer (Film and Video Art) and Chris Meigh Andrews (A History of Video Art) to be among the most valuable and reputable resources on the subject. The works of both auteur and commercial directors as well as prominent video artists is also an excellent point of study and comparison. Comparing the methods, goals/vision and public reaction and perception to the works of Stanley Kubrick, Michael Bay and Valie Export for example offers a model of comparison that can be mapped onto the creative works of each field. With these resources at my back, the main issue I hope to explore and discuss is simply at what point video/film becomes art. I plan to first try to answer the question of whether commercial film can be classified as art in any sense or on any level and if so try to boil down and define the prerequisites and criteria for this classification. I then intend to go back and apply these requirements to existing video medium, from video art, to indie, avant garde, short films, experimental film and arthouse film, to smaller scale but well recognised auteur led projects, onto the larger budget auteur driven, definitive productions and finally onto the much more commercial, marketing, highly product focused film projects most associated with the world of Hollywood.

I can then use this comparison to further refine, add to, strip down or even scrap my prerequisites, possibly conceding that whether a specific work or even product can be considered art is not something that can be easily quantified. A particular element I also hope to explore when it comes to film, especially the more commercialised projects, is this idea of film being unparalleled as a medium in terms of the sheer number of individual works that could be classified as being less than the sum of their parts. This is an idea that is particularly pertinent to both animation and more effects driven projects, in which each frame or design could be considered a work of art in its own right, and yet the final picture these works help to comprise are not, or even objectively cannot be, regarded as artworks. The same can be said in reference to nearly all components that make up a commercial picture; an incredibly well written script can be held back by the performances of the actors cast to play its characters and conversely an astonishing acting performance can be overshadowed by the film in which it’s featured or the material the actor is given to work with. One component of this study will be reconciling the idea of an industry or medium in which so many components are involved in its creation and yet be less than the sum of these components with the idea of such a product being a work of art. This is even further emphasised when comparing these projects to video artworks, that discards a vast array of the elements that can make up a piece of video media and yet in terms of vision, pathos and artistic intent video art can be so much more rich. Ultimately I aim to define mainstream cinema’s place in the world of art, even as a basis of artistic inspiration as well as to investigate the context surrounding it and its relationship with video art and the art world before possibly establishing an artistic hierarchy of moving-image media.

Premise: Use cumulative knowledge of course materials from AFS 2600 to complete the following question. Expectations: 6-8 pages, double-spaced 12pt font. Citations for sources required, according to your field’s expectations (i. e. MLA, APA, Turabian, etc.) with footnotes, endnotes, or parenthetical citations evident AND works cited or reference page. Question: A hot button topic in the various facets of news media over the past decade have been related to race and racism in America. It is novice to suppose that this begins with the election of President Barack Obama, per some conclusions that could be drawn from the docuseries And Still I Rise: African Americans After MLK, or with the election of President Donald Trump. As you have read or seen, these issues of the very public discourses on racism have been ongoing for some time, many of them preceding the 2000s. Your task for this assignment is to: 1) choose a focus group: Asian Americans (please be specific with regard to ethnicity and/or regionality of origin), African Americans or Afro-Diasporan descendants in America, Native Americans, Mexican or Central Americans or aspiring citizens, Latino Americans, Arab Americans ,OR European descendant Americans (or etc); and 2) use a current event from the news related to race and racism and your chosen group to inform the backstory of the issue on which you are focusing. Vet your news sources before relying on them. Consider the political bent of the publication or writer. Finally, 3) Inform your report with examples from three sources: ONE film and at least TWO books or articles from the course. More sources are always a great idea, too. Some topic examples might include: Challenges of Black Elected Officials After Barack Obama Media Takes on the Muslim Travel Ban, 2017-2018 Native American Unity and the No DAPL Protests Raza Studies in the Age of the Mexican/Central American Border Crisis White European Immigration and Privilege in the U.S. While, I trust your work to be open to your own interpretation in its paper form, some starting questions might be: According to your course materials, where in time might you place the origins of your focus issue and why? How does race and/or racism impact the narrative around your topic Does this news story illuminate some significant point that you discovered while taking in your course material. If so, what? How does your report’s focus discuss cross cultural or “interracial” efforts to address racism
