CM220 Unit 5 DB

Last week, you sought out research that addressed common ground among different stakeholders in your community. This week, you will seek out hidden/underrepresented voices in community conversations about this issue. You are welcome to use a source that you found when you completed the Research in the Purdue Global Library Learning Activity or try searching the Web for “experience of X [underrepresented stakeholder]” such as Experience of homeless veterans or Experience of students who have been bullied. Once you have selected your source, write a discussion post that addresses the following items:

Include the revised version of your thesis statement for an argument for change in your community and identify at least three search terms you can use in the Library or an Internet search engine to find sources that address underrepresented perspectives in your community that will be affected by your argument.
Tell us about the source you selected. Using your own words rather than quoting from the source, explain how the authors position or experience relates to your argument for change. How has this influenced your thinking about this topic?
What criteria helped you decide if this source is credible and useful for your research?
Wrap up the narrative portion of your post with an open-ended question to foster conversation or help you figure out additional research opportunities.
Finally, watch the video Creating APA Citations and create an APA formatted References page citation for the source.

CM220 Unit 4 Assignment

In this units Assignment, you will write a persuasive thesis statement related to the argument for change you have been developing in previous units and evaluate the effectiveness of that argument using the rhetorical situation and the rhetorical appeals. You will complete a worksheet for this Assignment.

In Part I, you will revise the provisional thesis statement that you generated in the previous units Discussion and identify the underlying assumption. Make sure the thesis is concise (12 sentences) and clearly expresses a persuasive argument that offers a solution to a problem. For more on creating effective persuasive thesis statements, review the following PGWC resources:

Writing a Thesis Statement: The Central Step in the Writing Process
Writing an Effective Thesis Statement
In Part II, describe your purpose, audience, and setting. You will provide details about whom you need to convince to bring about change and explain the community you are writing about.

Finally, in Part III you will evaluate your argument based on the three rhetorical appeals (ethos, pathos, and logos). For Part III, be sure to use complete sentences and offer specific examples. Aim for 5-7 sentences per section.

Use this Worksheet to complete the Assignment. If any references are made to sources, they should be cited in APA 6th edition style both in-text and on a separate references page

Adult Education Support for Transitioning Veterans

Paper Title:
How adult education influences and supports transitioning military veterans

Background:
The research will focus on how adult education supports the transitioning veteran community. Military veterans often struggle (physically, emotionally, mentally, etc.) when transitioning from military to civilian life. Since many veterans join the U.S. military to earn education benefits, colleges and universities are often the first institutions the veteran community is exposed to following their military service.

Critical thinking:
What do these institutions provide by way of programs to support veterans?
How can adult education and higher learning enhance or improve the veteran’s transition?

Citations:
At least 6 cited references should be provided in the research.

Action Campaign

A hospital is planning to purchase new telemetry heart monitors for the intensive care unit (ICU), emergency department (ED), and intermediate care unit (IMCU). To make the capital purchase productive, hospital administration forms a committee consisting of the unit managers, nursing representatives from each unit, a bio-med individual, and the financial officer. Each unit is allowed representation based on the number of nurses employed on the units. This results in three ICU nurses, three IMCU nurses, and one ED nurse.

Management is concerned about the costs of replacing the telemetry monitors; therefore, the financial officer pushes for the cheapest product, insisting that budget constraints and decreased revenue require the purchase of a less expensive system. However, the ICU, IMCU, and ED representatives gather after the meeting to discuss their support for the most expensive system. They devise a proposal that outlines the uninterrupted flow of patients with the system, explains how the telemetry units meet each areas needs, and demonstrates how the system will save money in the long term.

They create a chart that compares the two models, demonstrating how the more expensive system could enhance patient outcomes. They convince the bio-med representative to side with them based on their knowledge that his mother is in the ICU and could benefit from the outcome.  The nurses also gain support from several local cardiologists for their desired system.

Step 2:

Describe how the nurses used political strategies to influence the decision.
How does this case reflect the political power of nurses?
How did the nurses demonstrate the political skills described in the text?
What were the purposes behind the nurses forming a coalition?
