So you have to do a presentation including (pictures, intro, body, conc) about How Social Media Affects our Mental Health. You have to explain the advantages and disadvantages.
You have to fill out the Presentation outline template.
So I’ll do the presentation in the class using simple clear words and an outline is important to get %100.

Welcome to class! I am your Professor, Cindy Morrin! I have been teaching and counseling for over 25 years. In addition to Cuyamaca, I have taught at high schools and graduate level universities. I got involved in online teaching early in my career and feel it is an excellent way in learning. As a natural introvert, I find online learning a great way for me to learn and teach. However, I believe extroverts love online learning as well.
My career pathway is similar to many but unique to me as well. I come from a low-income family and had a lot of family trouble and trauma occur during my lifetime. My parents were teenage parents and then my step-parents were even closer to my age – more like older siblings. I had to raise myself as all the adults in my life suffered from their own intergenerational trauma and continued to pass it on. I’ve had family members go to prison and others die from drugs and alcohol. What helped me get through my rough childhood experiences was education and resilience and a fight to get out of a system of abuse. I love teaching this class because this is a class I needed as a teenager and young adult starting life and college. I hope you will reflect and journal on your life in this class as you embark on your college and career journey. I hope this class will help you overcome hardships and obstacles you might be facing or may face along your pathway.
I went to SDSU as an undecided major. I first pursued Business and even got a job at a bank. The banking job was a good job while in school and I enjoyed it, but it also made me realize business was not the major for me after all. After taking a leave of absence to try and figure out what I really wanted to do, I ended up changing my major to English and eventually I pursued a teaching credential. I became an English Teacher and then later got my Master’s degree at Point Loma Nazarene University in Counseling. After working in alternative education, the first Charter School in San Diego and as a high school counselor, I eventually found my pathway to Cuyamaca College to work with students like you. I have been at Cuyamaca full-time since 2006 and love the community college system.
I have held jobs since the age of 16 and every single job has helped lead me in my career and a place where I have gained valuable skills. In addition, my jobs are what helped me survive the family dysfunction and get myself in school. This is also an important part of your career journey and I will be recommending and referring you to our career center to explore work-related opportunities such as internships while you are in school.
Above all, I am a mom! I have two amazing adult sons. My oldest is a Music Professor at Berklee College of Music in Boston and my youngest is pursuing his PhD in Mathematics at UC Irvine. Both went to Ivy League schools for undergrad. My youngest actually went to Grossmont Middle College and I got to be his Counselor as he earned his certificate in math/physics/engineering before starting his college. Cuyamaca and Grossmont rock if you are in high school and taking this class!
I am back in school myself! I am pursuing a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology – San Diego campus. I am doing my research on adverse childhood experiences (ACE’s), parental narcissism, and CPTSD. It is pretty heavy stuff! Whew! But, I love it! I’m very excited to use the skills in the class I teach to continue my learning with all of you!
For fun, I spend lots of time with supportive, healthy friends and colleagues. We love to hike all of San Diego county and eat good food together. I also love yoga, meditation, gardening, creative arts and writing projects. Lastly, I am constantly outdoors, enjoying sunshine and nature!
Instructions
Now, I want to hear about all of you….
Tell us about yourself… What brought you to my class today? What are your career aspirations and future educational goals? What have you done so far? High School? Education? Internships? Hobbies? Do you work? What is your major or area of interest so far? What do you do for fun? Tell us about your family. Feel free to record a video and upload it and send photos. I welcome creativity and options!

Case Study: Help 10-year old Anthony improve his nutrition
Let’s delve deeper into the case of Anthony to better understand his circumstances and challenges. Anthony is a 10-year-old boy who has been struggling with obesity. He comes from a low-income family, and his parents are concerned about his health. Anthony’s parents have sought your help to understand the factors contributing to his condition and to receive guidance on improving his nutrition.
Anthony’s Daily Routine
Anthony’s daily routine provides valuable insights into his lifestyle and habits:
Anthony wakes up at 7:00 AM and quickly gets ready for school.
He usually skips breakfast due to time constraints and heads to the bus stop at 7:30 AM.
School starts at 8:00 AM, and he has a packed lunch from home, typically consisting of a sandwich, chips, and a sugary juice box.
After school, he returns home at 3:30 PM and often spends his free time watching television or playing video games.
Anthony’s family frequently orders fast food or opts for inexpensive, calorie-dense meals for dinner, as cooking fresh and nutritious meals is challenging given their financial constraints.
Bedtime is around 9:00 PM.
Case Study Questions
What are the key factors contributing to childhood obesity, and how do they relate to Anthony’s case, considering his family’s socioeconomic status and his daily routine?
What are the short-term and long-term health consequences of childhood obesity, particularly in relation to nutrition, and how might these impact Anthony’s future given his daily routine?
Given Anthony’s family’s financial constraints and his daily routine, what practical and affordable dietary modifications can they implement to support him in achieving a healthier weight.

Sources must be from the APUS library. let me know asap if i need to help get the sources.
This week, you will submit an annotated bibliography for two (2) of your sources for the final project paper. Both sources should be scholarly (peer-reviewed) and from the APUS Library. Read the instructions for upcoming assignments so you will have a good idea of sources you might need.
Each source (listed in alphabetical order) should have a complete Works Cited or References entry for the citation style you are using, as well as an annotation, which should be a paragraph or two summarizing and evaluating the article. Information about the author’s credentials and publisher’s credibility may be included. Value of the sources to the final project paper should be part of the annotation. (Summaries/evaluations under one hundred words each will be considered under-developed.)
Write in third person only. It’s a good idea to include a signal phrase, direct quote or paraphrase, and a parenthetical citation within each summary.
To format your Works Cited or References entries, you may use the library cite button discussed in the week four Lessons. Include the article’s web link (the https address—not just the doi) at the end of your Works Cited entry. Just copy and paste it from your web browser, if it is not already included. Examples are shown in the attached Template (which you will download) and Sample (which is attached to show you an example of what a good submission looks like).
Submit your assignment as a Word document attached to the assignment link so it can be automatically processed through Turnitin. Use the template provided. You can save the template with a title like this: Your Name_Annotated Bib.
Here is my topic choice.
My topic of choice is going to be: Hybrid Cloud Data Governance. Being the focus on the integration of public and private data centers, it is necessary that the company data management should be secure, compliant, and efficient. These days, the importance of both private and public cloud solutions has expanded and businesses are looking for a middle ground for flexibility in decisions, and security as well. In the case of data governance issues in such scenarios, my paper will identify useful solutions.

No need for references. Pick two or three if you can so I can use them as replies.
Read the article “POV: Artificial Intelligence Is Changing Writing at the University: Let’s Embrace It.” and then decide how you want to respond to it. Choose one of the following ways.

sidenote helpful: this is my second attempt at this paper the professor complaints are there should only really be 6 paragraphs. the Introduction which with a 3-point argumentative thesis statement, 3 body paragraphs and a counterargument, then the conclusion. they said the argument part is still missing and she feel some might have integrity issues so keep an eye out for that. Thanks
