Be sure you include a Works Cited with the commercial cited (see below for how to cite your commercial).Here is the outline for the summary and introduction:

  • Open with a summary of the commercial (refer to the handout Ten Tips for a Successful Media Analysis for a summary example of the Doritos ad).
    • Start with the name of the commercial and the brand. Use terms like opens with, begins with, or starts with.
    • Use transition words throughout like in the next scene, later, or after.

    • Use descriptive adjectives to describe the commercial.
    • Don’t use too much detail. Your description of the ad should be no longer than one page total. You don’t need to share every detail especially if you are not going to analyze that information.

Write 5 to 6 paragraphs of a comparison of at least two APRN board of nursing regulations in Florida state with those of at least one other state/region. Describe how they may differ.

Nursing Question

Part 1

Boards of Nursing (BONs) exist in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands. Similar entities may also exist for different regions. The mission of BONs is the protection of the public through the regulation of the nursing practice. BONs put into practice state/region regulations for nurses that, among other things, lay out the requirements for licensure and define the scope of nursing practice in that state/region.

It can be a valuable exercise to compare regulations among various state/regional boards of nursing. Doing so can help share insights that could be useful should there be future changes in a state/region. In addition, nurses may find the need to be licensed in multiple states or regions.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and reflect on the mission of state/regional boards of nursing as the protection of the public through the regulation of nursing practice.
  • Consider how key regulations may impact nursing practice.
  • Review key regulations for nursing practice of your state’s/region’s board of nursing and those of at least one other state/region and select at least two APRN regulations to focus on for this Discussion.
  • Write 5 to 6 paragraphs of a comparison of at least two APRN board of nursing regulations in Florida state with those of at least one other state/region. Describe how they may differ. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain how the regulations you selected may apply to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) who have the legal authority to practice within the full scope of their education and experience. Provide at least one example of how APRNs may adhere to the two regulations you selected.

 

Part 2

Nursing is a very highly regulated profession. There are over 100 boards of nursing and national nursing associations throughout the United States and its territories. Their existence helps regulate, inform, and promote the nursing profession. With such numbers, it can be difficult to distinguish between BONs and nursing associations, and overwhelming to consider various benefits and options offered by each.

Both boards of nursing and national nursing associations have significant impacts on the nurse practitioner profession and scope of practice. Understanding these differences helps lend credence to your expertise as a professional. In this Assignment, you will practice the application of such expertise by communicating a comparison of boards of nursing and professional nurse associations. You will also share an analysis of your state board of nursing.

To Prepare:

  • Assume that you are leading a staff development meeting on regulation for nursing practice at your healthcare organization or agency.
  • Review the NCSBN and ANA websites to prepare for your presentation.
  • The Assignment: (8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation)

Develop a 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint Presentation that addresses the following:

  • Describe the differences between a board of nursing and a professional nurse association.
  • Describe the Florida board
    • Who is on the board?
    • How does one become a member of the board?
  • Describe at least one state regulation related to general nurse scope of practice.
    • How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?
    • How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?
    • If a patient is from another culture, how would this regulation impact the nurse’s care/education?
  • Describe at least one state regulation related to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs).
    • How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?
    • How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?
  • Has there been any change to the regulation within the past 5 years? Explain.
  • Include Speaker Notes on Each Slide (except on the title page and reference page)

Write two five to six-sentence paragraphs in which you describe the merits of an App that can be used within your chosen profession – include the link and a possible App that could be created for your profession, and why it would be useful.

Discussion communications

This discussion forum has three parts:

1. Write two five to six-sentence paragraphs in which you describe:

  • a) the merits of an App that can be used within your chosen profession – include the link
  • b) a possible App that could be created for your profession, and why it would be useful

2. Keeping track of the work of professional associations is helpful not only as you plan your future career path, but also once its established. These organizations are often under-utilized due to a lack of awareness in their work, which includes providing up-to-date information about conferences, research initiatives, policy developments, and the like.

By finding out more about the professional association(s) with which you may be affiliated, you’ll discover useful aspects of these organizations’ work. Don’t limit your knowledge to the provincial or even national associations. It’s worth taking a sideways look at those located in the U.S. as well as other relevant international organizations.

Similar to demonstrating an awareness of the codes of ethics, a reference you make to the work of a professional association will also likely impress a possible employer. In a job interview, for example, you may be able to touch on important up-to-date information about which even a potential employer is unaware.

As a Douglas College instructor, I’m a member of the Federation of Post-Secondary Educators of BC (FPSE). I’m also affiliated with Colleges and Institutes Canada. As a member of an affiliate union, I belong to the Canadian Association of University Teachers(CAUT). While I’m not a member of the Post-Secondary Employers’ Association (PSEA), it’s also useful for me to monitor their activities.

For this discussion topic, explain what job you plan to hold after graduation. Then in a paragraph of four to five sentences, summarize the importance of a professional organization that can help you to advance your career. Also, provide a link to the organization.

3. State a difficult interview question you might be asked and then answer it to the best of your ability.

What is the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus?

The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus is a mathematical theorem that relates the two branches of calculus: integral and differential calculus.The link between these two areas is established by the fact that differentiation can be used to compute definite integrals and integration can be used to find antiderivatives. In words, it states that if functions F(x) and f(x) are related as follows :
F’ (x)=f (x), then we have ∫abF(x)dx=F(b)-F(a).

In summary, the fundamental theorem of calculus links together both differential and integral calculations in order to solve problems more quicklyized model based on past data sets.he Fundamental Theorem of Calculus states that the integration and differentiation operations in calculus are inverse to each other. This means that one can move from a definite integral (the area under a curve) to its corresponding derivative, or vice versa. In practice, this theorem allows for easier calculation when trying to solve complex problems involving derivatives and integrals by breaking them down into simpler pieces. At the end of the day, understanding how these two parts tie together is essential in correctly applying both methods throughout all branches of mathematical sciences.
