Choose one of the evidence-based coping interventions listed in your textbook and describe how it is effective in promoting well-being (e.g., mindfulness, ACT, expressive writing, etc.). Then, find a research article that addresses the approach with a wellness outcome (e.g., reduced depression; increased physical exercise; reduced alcohol use; reduced stress). Share the main findings with the class and why you were interested in the article.

AMANS RESPOND TO THE MAIN POST

This year has been nothing short of stressful and crazy in the world of education. As a NYC DOE teacher, we have been faced with many challenges through the reopening of schools. How do we cope with the stress that teaching brings while incorporating new blended learning models into our practice? How can we ensure the students are learning but that their emotional and social needs are being met as well? NYC decided to incorporate mindfulness as a method of coping into everyday school curriculums. For me, I complete mindfulness activities in my classroom in the morning, during our morning advisory meeting, to kickstart the day. We begin by reviewing the mindfulness activity, usually lasting from one to five minutes (we are beginning this process slowly) and then I give the students free time to draw or color if there is time to. So, we begin with breathing exercises, or a mindful minute. We focus on breaths, imagery, or sometimes listen to a short-guided meditation for mindfulness (there are tons for kids)!

Research suggests that mindfulness can help relieve stress and improve sleep, as well as improve overall mental health and chronic pain. For my students, this pain may look like the trauma of isolation and anxiety with the new school year or having to be jolted into remote/online learning last year. It can be anxiety around social or emotional family situations at home or the unpreparedness of coming into this current school year. According to Mak, Whittingham, Cunnington, & Boyd (2018), research has suggested that mindfulness is critical to helping the adolescent brain prepare for attention-based tasks and engage in different executive functions. The intervention trials within the study promoted different mindfulness tasks such as traiditonal meditation, deep breathing and yoga. These tasks were evaluated based on efficacy and stress-reduction. Results indicated that mindfulness-based interventions during any time of a child or adolescents daily functioning can enhance executive functioning and attention. Further research should be conducted to show the effectiveness with regard to school learning, however. I was interested in the article because I have begun using mindfulness in my classroom, as mentioned previously, and I think it is especially helpful in calming the body and getting ready to learn within a school setting. So far it has proven to be beneficial for my students.

Assignment Description:
This assignment asks you produce a short recommendation report in accordance with the scenario below. Format your report as a memo (it would be sent as an attachment through email).  Cite all sources used in research. Indicate when the wording is not your own with quotes and citation. Paraphrase (do not simply copy-and-paste). Use MLA or APA documentation style.

Situation:
Many companies today provide their employees with professional-development programs, paying for courses they take to enhance their skills.

You are a manager at Halcyon. This is a mid-sized marketing agency, holding its own in a competitive industry, but experiencing the typically higher-than-normal turn-over of such second-tier companies. To date the agency has provided extensive opportunities for employees to seek outside career development. The costs have been considerable, there has been little tracking of results of expenditures on course tuition, and, because the decision to pay for a course is made by each manager, there has been no supervision of all the courses being paid for (in some cases people were reimbursed for classes in cooking and general interest survey courses). Given the current economic climate, the VP of Corporate Development feels the agency can no longer maintain such a generous policy and is trying to phase out the practice completely. The GM has called a meeting of the agency executives to discuss the situation and come to a decision. Jennifer Kulich, the VP of Engagement Strategies, is one of those executives. She is asking all managers to each send her a short recommendation report so she can pool thinking on this issue and present findings at the meeting. In the email you receive, she explains the background (as outlined above) and writes:

What does the research say? What are the benefits and disadvantages of this sort of program for our agency? How should it be done? Is there a way to save it, limit it, modify it or what? What are reasonable expectations for the agency itself and its employees? What about just getting rid of it? Would there be any issues there? Add anything else that is relevant to the topic. Thanks.

October 13th, 2020 APA (edition "APA 7"), Business and Management Comments Off on contemporary issues related to food safety

contemporary issues related to food safety

This week’s assignment is a written paper, formatted according to APA, 7th edition format. Please be sure to use a correctly formatted title page including headers, and an APA formatted reference page. A minimum of 4 valid resources are required and in-text citations are required to show where and how you have used each resource to support your conclusions.

The purpose of this paper is to examine contemporary issues related to food safety, including tampering, bioterrorism, and different food safety standards across the globe, and identifying food safety barriers that can cause issues with food safety in a global, interconnected environment.

I suggest that you divide your papers into sections so that you cover the main topics of: tampering, bioterrorism, differing food safety standards, and finish up by explaining how those issues can cause problems with food safety in a global environment. Basically, you will be writing a paragraph or two on each issue and then finishing up with a few paragraphs that tie them all together and show how those issues impact food safety globally.

Make sure that you include an introduction to the paper as well as a conclusion. Be sure that you are writing from a third person perspective and using sources to back up what you are saying. Remember, in an academic paper, just because you say sothat does not make it true. You need to support your conclusions with a valid resource.
