Conduct research on the art work using at least 4 sources written by experts.

Conduct research on the art work using at least 4 sources written by experts. Please use only academic sources.
How to write paper:
Your paper should consist of a sound argument (aka, thesis) and you must successfully support it
with evidence-based research. This is how research progresses. An academic art history paper is
much closer to math than it is to creative writing: it’s like a puzzle that needs solving. You’re
basically stating your opinion BUT your opinion is based on factual research! It shouldn’t be
based on your personal feelings or opinions. An argument also is not something that we already
know. So, “Leonardo da Vinci was an artistic genius” isn’t a great argument because we all
know that (and everyone knew it when he was alive, too). A better one would be “Venice’s
architecture reflects its broad and lucrative trading networks in northern Europe and with the
Middle East.” I will provide a writing guide attached.

What interests you about the subject of this paper? Why is it worth writing about?

/in /by

Whenever you begin a major writing project, it is very important that you take the time to assess your writing situation. This first “Pre-Writing Exercise” asks you to do just that.

To start, re-read the “Checklist for assessing the writing situation” on pages 4 and 5 of Rules for Writers. Then, keeping the checklist in mind, carefully re-read the assignment instructions for Paper #1. I suggest that you read a printed copy of the instructions, which will make annotation easier. Read the whole set of instructions more than once if needed, and make notes about anything you find confusing, important, or otherwise significant.

When you feel you have a solid understanding of the assignment, answer the following basic questions about your writing situation for this paper. Type your answers in a new Word document.

1. Subject: What interests you about the subject of this paper? Why is it worth writing about?

2. Purpose: Why are you writing? What goal should your essay accomplish?

3. Audience: Who are your readers? How well informed are they about your subject, and what do you want them to learn?

4. Genre: What genre does the assignment require? What are the expectations and conventions of this genre?

5. Sources of information: where will you find the information you need? What kinds of evidence will be appropriate and effective?

6. Length and format: What are the length and format requirements for this assignment?

7. What are your deadlines? When will you need to start drafting your essay in order to meet your deadines?

Each of your answers should be at least two or three sentences long, but feel free to write as much as you like. The more you think and write about these issues, the better prepared you will be to write your essay.

You do not need to write your answers as an essay; numbered answers will be fine.

THIS IS A PREWRITING EXERCISE FOR A MAJOR PAPER. I’VE ATTACHED THE CHECKLIST, PAPER #1 WRITING INSTRUCTIONS, AND MY OUTLINE TO ORDER, YOU CAN RE-WORD IT IF YOU LIKE

Evaluate the approach of an analytics team and interpret and present statistical results to support a health care recommendation.

/in /by

The ability to translate analytic results into clear, concise, and actionable results is a vital skill for health care administrators. Because decision making is increasingly data-driven and evidence-based, managers are frequently required to formally present statistical results to leadership. Sometimes, decision makers differ as to how well they comprehend the information being delivered. Your job as a health care professional is to know how to distill and synthesize data analytics and present complex concepts in the pursuit of value, quality, and safety. You must be able to clearly communicate the results of your team’s data analysis and it should be both insightful and informative. How much your work is valued can depend heavily on how well the results of that analysis are articulated. Effectively communicating the results so the issues and recommendations are clear and explicit can greatly enhance the value of your analytic work.<br>For this assignment, you will evaluate the approach of an analytics team and interpret and present statistical results to support a health care recommendation.<br>Preparation<br>Review the Vila Health: Presenting Statistical Results for Decision Making simulation to evaluate, interpret, and present statistical results to support a health care recommendation.<br>Instructions<br>This assignment has two deliverables:<br>Prepare an 8–10-slide PowerPoint presentation about the statistical results with recommendations to health system leadership. <br>Ensure the slides graphically communicate the findings.<br>Ensure your presentation is relevant to and easily understood by everyone in the audience. <br>Include an APA-formatted references slide at the end of the presentation.<br>Be sure your written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.<br>Use Kaltura or similar software to record your PowerPoint presentation.
