EU unprecedented migration/refugee issue challenges

The EU is facing an unprecedented migration/refugee issue, that offers opportunities but also unprecedented challenges. You are tasked to draft a report that would shape the agenda of the EU on how to effectively deal with this issue

A policy briefing draws on research to offer specific policy recommendations to policymakers (governments, international organizations, political parties etc). The briefing may contain a proposal for a single policy or a set of policies addressing a broader issue.

You will be asked to write a policy brief on behalf of an organization of your choice about one of the topics in the list below. This report will represent the official position of the organization about a particularly pressing issue. As a lead researcher drafting this report you are expected to (1) identify the problematic situation (or the policy in need of change), explain why this is important; and (2) offer concrete policy recommendations that would address the problem (or improve the existing sets of policies).

The policy report is more than a mere description of a particular situation. It also requires identifying problems and coming up with alternative policy recommendations/solutions. Most importantly, the readers of these documents are busy policymakers, who have limited technical knowledge about the topic, so the writing style needs to be clear, accessible and jargon-free.

Person Centered Care – knowledge development and methodology

The purpose of this paper is to explore the fundamental epistemological, ontological, ethical, ideological, and philosophical tenants that guide scholarly inquiry as evidenced in a published research study while identifying, defining, and describing your own approach. This assignment will be foundational to the future work you do as a graduate student on either a thesis or a project when you begin to develop your methodological plan. You will be able to build on the work you did for the first two assignments. Again, you are strongly advised to take notes on articles as you review them, attend to the feedback of your colleagues during your facilitated discussion, and construct an outline for your paper before you start writing it. It is recommended that you meet with your professor to discuss your ideas as you contemplate this assignment. This scholarly paper will be written in APA (7 th ed.) format, 6-8 pages in length (excluding references and title page), incorporate at least 10 scholarly references, and include the following components:

a) A clearly stated question, and purpose statement for the work. Include a brief background discussion of what drew you to this question/issue, it’s relevance and significance to current nursing practice and/or the nursing profession.

b. Define the epistemological, ontological, ethical, ideological and philosophical tenants that guide the existing approaches to your question you have found in the current literature.

c) Describe and define your personal epistemological, ontological, ethical, ideological and philosophical perspective that will guide your decision in choosing a research methodology?

d) Identify and describe the methodological approach (research design) that provides the most coherent fit between your ontological and epistemological worldview and your research question?

e) Describe your emerging ideas r/t sample (size, sampling techniques, inclusion/exclusion criteria), setting, data collection (methods/tools), data analysis techniques, and knowledge translation plans.

f) A compelling conclusion that convinces the reader of the integrity of the plan and the importance of carrying it out.

Assessment criteria for this assignment:

I. Thoughts are organized and clearly communicated, writing is understandable and accurate; there is attention to APA, spelling and grammar, within page limit. (15%)

II. There is ample evidence of critical reflection upon all of the components outlined above (a-e) and they have all been addressed, and the components link together logically. The proposed plan flows clearly from a critical review of appropriate and adequate literature and is well justified as an approach to answer/address the clinical question. (50%)

III. There is evidence that you have thought about what you will need to consider, what questions may arise as you move forward with the plan, and what potential barriers may be encountered in carrying out the plan (with some thought as to how you might address them). Conclusion is compelling, logical and reflective. (35%)

Journal Review

Learning Outcomes
The student should be able to:
• carry out a literature search to find relevant research
• critically evaluate research design and findings
• evaluate research within the context of wider psychological knowledge.

Guidelines for Critical Review

Students will write a critical review of a recent psychology journal article (within the last 2 years) or an appropriate unpublished ‘preprint’. This review should place particular emphasis on design and analysis used, and students should also consider the theoretical ideas discussed. The article selected should be one that could be greatly improved, or where an alternative explanation/argument is possible. The review should be submitted by 10am Friday 3rd December 2021.

Notes for guidance on writing the journal review:
New research articles are ‘peer reviewed’ – with researchers providing comments to journal editors highlighting strengths and weaknesses of the presented work and how it could be improved. In this piece of coursework, you take the role of this reviewer, and critically evaluate your chosen article, making suggestions for amendments. Look at each section of your chosen article and critically evaluate what is presented. You should also present suggestions for changes, or alternative explanations and experiments that could test them. Examples of this kind of peer review will be given at the seminar associated with this course on 7th October 2021.

Note – your review should not be written in essay format, as this is not the way reviews are presented. Put your comments into sections, using subheadings, such as:


General comments:
Give an overall critique of the paper. What claims do the authors make? How do these claims relate to methods they have used? Do you agree with their conclusion?

Introduction:

Critically evaluate the background to the study. Is this information clearly presented? Are the aims of this study clear? Are the hypotheses clear, and are they appropriate for the study?

Method:
Look at the design used and consider whether this is an appropriate method for the research questions. Are there any issues with the methods they have chosen? Would alternative measures provide clearer answers to the research questions? Are the variables used valid and/or reliable measures relevant to the hypothesis tested? Are the details of the study clear?

Results:
Discuss the type of analysis used, and how the results are presented. You could suggest possible alternative analyses and discuss what this would have shown. Is anything missing? Should additional analyses have been carried out?

Discussion:
Evaluate the explanations given for the results. Consider whether alternative explanations could be given for these findings. Is it possible to generalize these results, or are they specific to a particular paradigm or population? What further studies or experiments should be conducted to test the authors’ hypothesis or rule out an alternative explanation?
