In the Talent Makers text, an argument is made in Chapter 1 that, many organizations’ hiring practices have become stale, too tradition-ladened and generally outdated.

 Topic 8- Summer Learning Loss (Chapter 9): According to studies, all students return from summer vacation with decreased academic levels of achievement. For low-income students, however, the decrease is greater than that for middle-class children. What conditions may contribute to this difference? Discuss at least two (2) possible ways that the “summer loss gap” can be bridged for low-income students. Please support your work with a minimum of three (3) relevant scholarly sources.

Instructions
Standards that guide teachers’ preparation and professional development today require teachers to use their knowledge of cultural diversity. In Chapter 2, you learned about national teaching standards that guide your growth as a teacher and multicultural educator. Standards specific to social justice education have also been developed for educators. In particular, the Social Justice Standards: The Teaching Tolerance Anti-bias Framework (2018) developed by Learning for Justice (formerly Teaching Tolerance) provides strategies for antibias education for K-12 instruction. However, sometimes, the requirement that teachers use knowledge of cultural diversity results in a somewhat superficial treatment of culture in the teaching and learning process. Teachers must deeply understand various aspects of culture to educate all students effectively.
Imagine visiting a school in a state with which you are unfamiliar.
What would you like to know about the students’ cultures in that school so you could get a deep understanding of the teaching and learning processes in that school?
Now, describe a plan for what should be included in an effective teacher preparation program that supports you and others in learning about culture and its impact on teaching and learning.
Work to use the national teaching standards and the social justice standards in your plan.

For your next research assignment, I need you to identify a qualitative research article–not a summary or literature review, but a bona fide research study–that is in your field of study and read it.  After reading it, I need you to provide the following information about it in a summary that is between 100-150 words:
Provide me with a full reference to the article using the APA Style Manual. (This section does not count toward your word limit.)
What is the purpose of the study?  
Who or what was studied, and when?  
What qualitative method(s) did the author(s) use?  How do you know?  
What did the author(s) find?  Did the author(s) have any theories that they were testing, or were they doing exploratory research to develop theories?  If a theory was being investigated, was there evidence to support it?  
 

 For this assignment, assume the role of a case manager at a human service agency.  You have appointments with four clients tomorrow. Select three of the five client profiles from the following four scenarios. For each client, prepare a plan which answers the indicated questions (for each plan provide 3 to 4 paragraphs). 

 
Recent news headlines featured executives from Facebook and Twitter addressing individual privacy violations and data breaches. In the healthcare field, the right to privacy and consent to treatment is not new and actually dates back to the Hippocratic oath. However, on a recent visit to a physician’s office, do you recall the sign in process? Did you give your name and birth date orally to a clerk? Or did you sign a form and include your date of birth and/or other personal information on the sign-in sheet, for everyone to see? Could you see the names and personal information of people that signed in before you? These are examples of how your private information can be shared, accidentally, with others. Thus, client privacy and informed consent violations are not limited to companies such as Facebook and Twitter,  but to health and human services organizations as well.
Advances in technology and multiple service providers, for example, doctors, case managers, etc, have increased the potential of a data breach risk associated with the sharing of patient protected health information (PHI). The Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Civil Rights (OCR) is responsible for oversight and enforcement of HIPAA regulations. Every year OCR regulators sanction and penalize healthcare organizations for violating patient privacy.
What are the most common types of data breaches?  Examples of accidental disclosure of patients’ protected health information (PHI) could be mailing out flyers with PHI, unauthorized access to PHI via an employee email, discussing PHI in the hallway, hacking of computer systems, loss of laptops containing patient information, or medical records found in dumpsters.  The purpose of this assignment is to understand, recognize, analyze, and evaluate PHI laws and data breach cases and their risk implications for local healthcare organizations. The fines and penalties are not limited to the organization, but as you will see in this assignment, can be assessed against employees of the organization such as case managers, social workers, nurses, counselors, etc.
