Hello everyone,
For this assessment, you’ll be focusing on forensic science and profiling. Understanding the intricacies of forensic science can be extremely helpful on the job, especially as it forms the basis for most criminal prosecutions and many civil litigation cases.
As a criminal investigator in a police department, imagine that you are investigating a series of crimes that appear to be committed by the same person. You have been asked to consult on the creation of a criminal profile of the unknown suspect. You will need to research and analyze what is needed for the criminal profile and provide this information to the task force investigating the case.
Select one of the two options:
Select one of the case studies from “Serial murder in America: case studies of seven offenders” from the University Library.
Find your own criminal profile to use. Keep in mind that it can be a local criminal profile and it does not have to be a serial murderer. Focus on finding a profile of a criminal that appears to be committing a series of crimes.
Write a 1,200- to 1,400-word criminal profile analysis based on your chosen criminal profile or case study.
Provide the following in the analysis:
Define criminal profiling.
Explain the purpose of a behavioral profile in criminal cases.

Scenario
You are a physician′s office Coding Educator for Premier Medical Group. As a Coding Educator, you are responsible for onboarding new Certified Coders. Certified Coders review patient records, identify what information they need to abstract from the documentation, and then assign the correct code(s) to that information. One of the important reasons for accurate assignment is to ensure that services rendered are reimbursed appropriately.
As a Coding Educator, you have been tasked with creating a coding training aid for new Certified Coders that will contain codes for a patient′s diagnosis, procedures completed, and drugs and supplies used. To create this training aid, you must review the provided patient′s records, assign appropriate codes, and provide rationale as to why the selections were made.
Directions
For this project, you will review a patient′s records, which will be provided in Blackboard over the next several weeks, and you will identify diagnosis codes, procedural codes, and drug and supply codes when applicable. You will record the identified codes in the Coding Template, which you will download in Blackboard. Each week, you will add additional codes to this template. The complete template will serve as your coding training aid for new Certified Coders.

Thus will be a follow up of previous presentation. Writer 390253834 help me on the last assignment. Hello, this next assignment is a follow up from the previous one. The last slide show was for presentation 1. This next assignment is for presentation 2. We will use some of the same slides from before but twit it a little bit and add two more slides. This next presentation will be more for a technical audience.

PHIL347
Course Project: Topic Selection
1. My argument will provide reasons related to the following question:
Is the speed and ubiquity (present everywhere, all the time) of the Internet reprogramming our brains for the worse and “making us stupid”?
2. ______My argument will support this claim as true; my answer to the question is “yes.”
______My argument will not support this claim and will oppose this claim as false; my answer to the question is “No.”
3. Stated argumentatively, I think the three most important issues around this topic are:
(1) ___________________________
(2) ___________________________
(3) ___________________________
State the issues argumentatively–that means a question that could be answered with a yes or no answer.
• For example: “Should we defund the police?” not “Why should we defund the police.”
Make sure the question is argumentative.
• For example: “Is Springfield the capital of Illinois?” is not an argumentative question because there is only one possible answer. “Should we move the capital of Illinois to Chicago?” is an argumentative question.
Examples of the three issues:
1. Will the costs of providing free healthcare to undocumented persons be prohibitively high?
2. Do we have a moral obligation to provide healthcare to those who have sought shelter within our borders?
3. Is the public health of the nation vulnerable to the health of undocumented persons, specifically by those with communicable diseases such as tuberculosis and by unvaccinated persons?

Objective: To create a plan that addresses dual language learners and to evaluate your plan.
Scenario: Georgio is a lively, friendly, and good-natured two-year-old at your childcare center. English is not his first language, and his vocabulary is about 30 words in English, and about 35 in his native language. He generally uses one-word phrases, such as “Hi” and “Bye,” and does not interact easily with other children. As center director, you have observed Georgio and organize a meeting with Georgio’s teacher and an ELL consultant to talk about strategies to support Georgio’s language development. You create a plan in advance of the meeting to discuss Georgio’s situation.
Focus Assignment:
Write a plan for a meeting to discuss Georgio’s language abilities with the ELL consultant. Include at least two major points to discuss with regard to Georgio’s language abilities considering where he is in the language development continuum of a typically developing two-year-old child.

Signature Assignment: Diverse and Culturally-Specific Approaches to Healthcare
For this assignment, you will examine the role of the nurse as a culturally diverse practitioner. Identify your target audience (i.e. staff nurses, pre-licensure nursing students, etc.) and create a PowerPoint presentation.
A nurse educator is preparing an orientation on culture and the workplace. There is a need to address the many cultures that seek healthcare services and how to better understand the culture. Choose a culture that you feel less knowledgeable about and address the following prompts by including two to three examples of each bullet point:
• Compare and contrast this culture with your own culture.
• Provide examples of the historical, socioeconomic, political, educational, and topographical aspects of this culture.
• Report the appropriate interdisciplinary interventions for hereditary, genetic, and endemic diseases and high-risk health behaviors within this culture.
• Determine the influences of their value systems on childbearing and bereavement practices.
• Name their sources of strength, spirituality, and magico-religious beliefs associated with health and health care.
• Outline health-care practices, including acute versus preventive care; barriers to health care; the meaning of pain and the sick role; and traditional folk medicine practices.
• Identify cultural issues related to learning styles, autonomy, and educational preparation of content for this culture.
Your presentation should be 15-20 slides (not including title, objectives, and references slides) with detailed notes for each slide. Include at least four scholarly sources. Follow best practices for PowerPoint presentations related to text size, color, images, effects, wordiness, and multimedia enhancements. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment. Audio recording is required. Be sure to completely answer all the points/questions. Use clear headings that allow your professor to know which bullet you are addressing on the slides in your presentation. Support your content with citations throughout your presentation. Make sure to reference the citations using the APA writing style for the presentation. Include a slide for your references at the end.
