Introduction

1  Specify a life-span topic.

2  Explain the topic you have selected and provide reasoning for the research study.

Study Design (e.g., correlation, experiment, quasiexperiment, etc.)

Briefly explain the design of the study you are proposing.

Methodology

Explain the methods for conducting the experiment. Address the following question: How would you propose to study the selected topic, and what is the IV/DV, if applicable?

Timeframe

Describe in detail the timeframe for the study (e.g., longitudinal, cross-sectional, or mixed design).

Conclusion

Summarize your proposal succinctly.

Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

1. Make recommended revisions to the preliminary report completed in Week 4, and prepare it for inclusion in the final (Key Assignment) report. That preliminary report information will be used in the first 2 sections described below.
2. Complete your analysis of the data for inclusion in the final report. The following information must be included in this section of the final report:
   • For customers: a) gender; b) age; c) frequency of shopping at the store (you name it); past purchases of the product (you name it); d) purchases of the product in the last month; e) perceptions of why product sales have decreased; and f) what would encourage the costumer to begin purchasing the product again
   • For store employees: a) gender; b) age; c) length of employment; d) perceptions of why the product sales have decreased; and e) recommendations of what the company can do to increase sales
3. Complete the final report. The final report will include the following sections:
   • Introduction: In this section, you will describe the background of the study (the company, the product, the issues that prompted the study) and why you completed this study. Included here is a description of what is already known about the research question (in formal research, this is referred to as the literature review).
   • The methodology: In this section, you will describe how you completed the study (how you selected the sample, how you protected participants from any risks of participation, how you surveyed the participants, along with the questions you asked) and how you analyzed the information gathered.
   • Results: In this section, report the demographics of the participants and results from the surveys (Data results from step 2).
   • Conclusion: In this section, summarize the results of the data, along with your interpretation of that data, and answer the original question of why sales have decreased.
   • Recommendations: In this section, write up your recommendations about what the company should do to resolve the issue.

This report should include 8–10 references (the text can be used as one of these). Follow APA guidelines

Application: Information Technology in Public Health

Public health surveillance and prevention efforts in the U.S. reflect the involvement of numerous health care providers and organizations. Government agencies such as the CDC often function as a hub for the collection, coordination, and communication of public health-related data. Common applications of public health IT to promote and improve the health of populations include (but are not limited to) biosurveillance, disease registries, and immunization tracking. The timely and appropriate implementation of these applications can have a significant impact on the ability of providers to deliver health care to the their patients, which, in turn, can have a profound effect on a community’s overall state of health and wellness. Consider the dire impact a SARS outbreak might have, for example, if patient diagnoses were not reported and shared regionally, nationally, and internationally.

Prepare for this Application as follows:

• Conduct a literature review of a specific application of health information technology in public health and locate an example in which the application was used to address a public health-related concern. (You might wish to begin by researching a particular surveillance program, disease outbreak, disease registry, prevention program, or other public health-related event, and then identify the technology involved in this activity.)
• Find out how this application has impacted the public’s health. Learn also about any ways in which health care providers and organizations were involved in the use of this information technology.

Then write a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following:

• Describe the specific application you selected and the ways in which it addresses a public health-related concern. Summarize the potential benefits to the public, as well as any possible drawbacks, arising from the use of this application.
• Explain the role of hospitals and other health care organizations in contributing to or making use of this public health-related IT application.
• Discuss other implications of this application for health care providers and organizations. How has it impacted (or might it impact) clinical or administrative practices in hospitals or other health care institutions? Provide a rationale for your response.

Technology has changed the way we conduct business on a daily basis. A number of organizations have opted for integrating systems and sharing information with their counterparts.

Using the University online library resources and the Internet, research information technology (IT) systems for supply chains.

Then respond to the following:

• As a manager, if you have to design an IT system for supply chain purposes using a cross-functional team, who would you include on your team and why?
• Explain some of the trade-offs you would consider when designing/acquiring the system. Be specific and support your reasoning with examples.

After your initial post, discuss the following:

• What trade-offs are involved in (a) sharing information with other organizations in a supply chain and (b) the acquisition of information-processing technology?
• Who needs to be involved in decisions as they pertain to technology acquisition for supply chain management?
• Name three different ways that technology has improved the ability to manage supply chains.
• Explain why integrated technology has improved the ability to manage supply chains.

Write your initial response in 200 to 300 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

SWOT analysis

After watching the video “30 days – Minimum Wage” and seeing what a person working and making minimum wages goes through in day to day life, what insight have you gained concerning the issue of the “working poor”.

In the video it represents the adults without children who are struggling.  What issues did you learn that would be added to the situation when children are involved?

Would it be more difficult with or without children? Please explain.

If you or someone you knew were in this situation, what advice would you have or action you would take to make the situation better? Please provide a list of resources you would access (food banks, skill center, etc.) to assist with the situation and where you would find them (internet, library, asking others, etc.)

Overall, what are your thoughts about our working poor population and what do you think can be done to provide some relief to their struggle?
