My choice of human right is: Freedom of Religion
*Make sure to mention the specific treaty bodies that support this right*
My choice of contemporary issues will be about secularism and limitations of freedom of religion. I will be comparing Canada's and France's (Laicite) approach to secularism or ability to freely express your religion in society and government. As to limitation of freedom of religion, I will be discussing the merit or flaw in the notion that denial of services to LGBT individuals (Ex: Cake Shop in Colorado or Kim Davis ) is truly covered by freedom of religion laws.
Please answer the following questions below:
Choose one human right from a core international treaty. In a text of approximately 6 pages (more or less 2100 words, 1.5 spacing), answer these questions on your chosen right in a detailed and thoroughly researched analysis:
"
1. What is your chosen right? Name at least three international instruments that protect your right. Identify which articles within these instruments apply to your chosen right. Why did you choose this right? Describe the content of this right. Which type of rights does it belong to? (4 pts)
2. What are the obligations created by this right and who or what is the holder of these obligations? Answer these questions according to one instrument protecting your right. (3 pts)
3. What are the international supervisory mechanisms of your chosen right? How do these mechanisms work? (3 pts)
4. Find the general comment, a concluding observation and a state report related to your chosen issue. Copy and paste the links in your paper. (1 pts)
5. Name two situations or issues in contemporary society related to your right. Give examples of multiple positions on these issues. Give your own opinion on the issues. (4 pts)
We strongly suggest you read and use the general comments regarding your right, if applicable. Add a bibliography at the end of your text (not included in the 5 pages) which includes at least 6 different sources. Two of these 6 sources must be periodical articles. A periodical article is from an academic journal, it is not a column in a magazine or a newspaper. Don't forget to properly reference your sources. Use the method of your choice, as long as it includes all the pertinent information and is coherent throughout your paper.
Grading Scheme
Here are the elements that will be taken into account when grading the final assignment:
• Content (make sure to read the questions carefully and to answer all of them) (2 pt)
• Research (quality and relevance of the sources, quality of the analysis and the synthesis) (3 pts)
• Quality of the writing (grammar, clarity, precision, concision, structure of the text) (2 pts)
• Originality of subject and treatment (1 pt)
• Bibliography and proper referencing: a minimum of 5 sources including 2 periodical articles. (2 pts)

STRUCTURING YOUR PROJECT
The key to a good Single Research Project is clear structure and organisation. The following are only guidelines as to the most appropriate way of presenting your SRP. The marks allocated to each section can be found in Assessment Criteria (Appendix D).
Title page
The title page must contain the title of your project, your name, the full title of the degree programme for which the project is being presented, the month and year of submission, the name of your supervisor and the word count. The following declaration must be inserted at the bottom on the page and signed:
This Single Research Project is an original and authentic piece of work produced in fulfilment of my degree regulations. I have fully acknowledged and referenced all secondary sources. I have read and understood the Academic Regulations and I am fully aware of any breach of them.
Abstract
The abstract is a summary of the Single Research Project and should be no more than 200 words in length. It should include an outline of the topic, the themes emerging from the academic literature review, key issues emerging from the analysis and discussion and the conclusions. It is not an introduction but should provide a succinct view of what the study reveals rather that what it intends to find. Note that the abstract is not included in the word count.
Introduction
The introduction provides the relevant background and context for the study, in other words it ‘sets the scene’. You should start by outlining in two or three paragraphs the broad topic area and write a little about the aspect of it that interests you. You should state your motivation for doing the research – why it is worth doing and you should also state the purpose and aims of the study - what you are planning to do and how you intend to do it. Most importantly, you must also clearly state either your research question or your research hypothesis. The research question is the question that your research will answer, while the research hypothesis is the proposition that you aim to test.
Academic literature review
In this section, you need to review the academic literature relevant to the broad topic area. The review should highlight the relevant theories and concepts used in the current and previous research and assess the strengths, weaknesses and limitations of these studies. The weaknesses and limitations are particularly important as this provides justification for your own research.
You need to review the academic literature critically rather than simply describe who said what. Quotations may be useful here but keep these to a minimum and only include them when you have a clear rationale for doing so. The examiners are more interested in your arguments than in your ability to copy down what others have written.
Analysis and discussion
Here you must present the material you have collected in a logical sequence and analyse it in depth. You should identify core issues stemming from the analysis and discuss the key arguments arising, relating them all to the academic literature you have already reviewed. Where applicable, you may wish to comment on any practical and policy implications. If you wish to include any photos or diagrams, tables or graphs, they should be embedded near the text that makes reference to them, NOT put into the Appendix.
Conclusion
The principle aim of the conclusion is to draw all the threads of your study together. It should be based on what has been written earlier and nothing new should be introduced at this stage. You should summarize the arguments and issues emerging from your analysis and discussion, highlight the wider implications of your study, and relate your work back to the question you were trying to answer or the hypothesis that you were testing, indicating the extent to which you have been successful. Finally, if appropriate, you can make suggestions for future research.
References
A reference list is not a bibliography and should only include full references to sources cited within the text of the project. It should consist of one alphabetical list and should not be divided books, journals and websites. See Appendix F for referencing guidelines.
Appendices
Appendices should only be used in exceptional circumstances in a Single Research Project. It might very occasionally be necessary to provide additional information but full documents or whole web sites must not be placed here. Where possible you should either summarise the material in words or put in a reference to where the reader can find the information. Your supervisor will advise you if is appropriate to use an appendix in your case.

Annotated Bibliography Assignment -- Due by Thursday, April 14th
From Purdue’s OWL -- “An annotated bibliography is an account of research that has been done on a topic. As with any bibliography, it is an alphabetical list of research sources such as books, articles, websites, and documents. In addition to bibliographic information, it gives a concise summary of each source, including some assessment of its value or relevance.”
There are two main sections to EACH annotated bibliography:
1) The bibliographic information (the reference) single space
2) The explanatory paragraphs (the annotation), which provide the following elements:
a. a summary of the main arguments or ideas presented by the author
The purpose of this assignment is for you to locate, in scholarly journals (preferably via LSU’s indexes and databases) the conversation on a particular element of any short story, novel, or poem we have read in class. Choose the best FIVE scholarly articles on your chosen topic. Choose a story that we studied in this class that you enjoyed, or an aspect of a story you questioned. I shared with you a scholarly article I found on the significance of the Irish literature Grant studied while in college, and how he only understood those lessons much later as he’s involved with Jefferson. Understanding critical arguments is a very important part of literary scholarship. I sincerely hope you research a topic that truly interests you. Some of my favorite work in both my undergrad and graduate courses was researching critical perspectives.
For this assignment, please include a heading as listed on your syllabus (left hand corner. Include your name, due date, class, assignment). Then center your topic as your title (Color Red in Beloved).

Topic: Rhetorical Analysis
Order Description
This assignment asks you to watch, analyze, and evaluate one of the following speeches.
The Rhetorical Analysis should take the form of a formal essay—that is, it should have a thesis statement, properly constructed paragraphs and a conclusion.
Essentially, a Rhetorical Analysis amounts to an evaluation of the effectiveness of a given speech that is justified with reference to specific aspects of the speech. You should begin by asking yourself what the speech was trying to do, and to what extent it succeeded? You should then choose and discuss elements of the speech that support your evaluation. You will not be able to discuss every aspect of the speech in 1500 words, so you will need to focus on those elements that are most significant for the speech and your own evaluation. In essence, your discussion will need to be selective.
Be sure to use appropriate course terminology and discuss meaningful aspects of the speech.
Note: Although the title of this assignment shares a word with “Rhetorical Devices,” a rhetorical analysis does not ask you to focus specifically or exclusively on the use of rhetorical devices in a speech. Do not make the mistake of simply listing and discussing the devices in the speech. Instead, write a global analysis of the speech that addresses the use of rhetorical devices only if and when it is necessary to support your larger argument.
The evaluation of this assignment will be based on:
1. The correctness, clarity and style of the writing.
2. Your identification of significant elements of the speech, and your general ability to engage meaningfully with the speech.
3. The extent to which your evaluation is supported by a perceptive and persuasive discussion of the elements of the speech you have chosen to focus on.

Valuation Coursework
a) Identify one retail building in Birmingham which has a floor area between 200 sq m.- 5,000 sq m. This building should currently be occupied by a single occupier or currently vacant. For the purpose of this coursework the actual lease is irrelevant and you are to assume that the whole property is let toa single company.
b) Describe the property including stating the floor area of the premises, the ITZA if applicable and commenting on the location, description and amenities of the building.
c) Identify comparable evidence from on line databases, agents, professional press and/or other sources and calculate an Estimated Rental Value for the building and a suitable All Risks Market Yield. Clearly show and explain how you have arrived at your ERV and ARY.
d) Hypothetical Scenario 1–Assume that the property has just been let at your estimated rental valueto a tenant with a reasonable covenant strength. Prepare a freehold valuation of the property for the purposes ofloan securityfor a bank proving a reasoned valuation and outline the type of information you should include in the valuation report.
d) Hypothetical Scenario 2 - Assume that your retail building was let to a tenant with a reasonable covenant strength 8 years ago on a 10 year FRI lease at a rent which is now 110% of the ERV.I.e you are assuming that the lease expires in 2 years and that the property is currently over-rented.
i. Calculate the Market Value of the freehold interest for loan security purposes.
ii. Assumethat you act for the landlord and that the tenant has requested a new lease for 10 years at the market rent and with a rent free period.Prepare a Discounted Cash Flow to show the NPV of the current income and outgoings and the NPV of the proposed lease. The proposed lease should incorporate a rent free period which produces a higher NPV than the existing lease. Assume a discount rate of 9%.
Please clearly explain the steps you have taken in each case.You can make any assumptions which you deem are appropriate but you must clearly state all assumptions which you make.
You must therefore produce:-
1 A description of the property considering its characteristics
2 A reasoned valuation of the Estimated Rental Value and All Risks Yield
3 A reasoned valuation for a security valuationand include the information which would be needed in a valuation report.
4 A reasoned valuation on the freehold Market Value assuming the passing rent is 110% of the ERV (assume the ERV as in 2 above)
5 A reasoned Discounted Cash Flow calculating the NPV of the cash flow for the existing lease and the proposed lease
Assessment Criteria
1. Completion of the valuationsand the appraisal and understanding of the bases of valuation
2. Use, demonstration and understanding of the appropriate rents and yields
3. Illustration of and understanding of traditional and DCF valuation techniques
4. Clarity of thought, layout and logical progression with mathematical accuracy.
For clarification – the property can be either an office or a retail unit (e.g. shop). It must be the whole building
If it is multi- let you can assume it is single let
To calculate the ERV you need 4-6 comparables of similar types of building – the best will be similar buildings let recently in the same location – you may need to look slightly further afield to identify comparables. The comparable rents can be floors in buildings. You need to search EGi and Focus to find the comparables.
You will need 3 or 4 comparables for the All Risks yield – if you cannot find yield evidence near to your subject property then widen the search parameters.
You need to consider how each comparable needs to be adjusted to arrive at your ERV and ARY.
You need to look at the Red Book to help you with the contents of the valuation report
You need to prepare 2 spreadsheets for the DCF. The first is the current scenario and the second the proposed scenario. On popular demand I have posted annotated template for the DCFs under Study material. You can use these templates but remove the notes
Start with the current scenario tab and calculate the NPV based on the current lease information – i.e. with 2 years to expiry. Allow of a void before the property is relet.
The proposed scenario should be a letting for 10 years with the rent increasing by inflation after 5 years.
Hope these notes help you complete the coursework

Topic: Asthma
Order Description
Asthma is a chronic lung disease caused by inflammation of the lower airways and episodes of airflow obstruction. Asthma episodes or attacks can vary from mild to life-threatening. In 2007, about 7% percent of the U.S. population was diagnosed with asthma and there have been a growing number of new cases since that time. There are several known risk factors identified as triggers of asthma symptoms and episodes, including inhalation of allergens or pollutants, infection, cold air, vigorous exercise, and emotional upsets. There is also growing evidence relating body-mass index to asthma in both children and adults. Design a study to investigate whether there is such an association.
Choose a study design and justify the reasons you chose the design over others.
Select a statistical measure you would use to describe the association (if there is one) between body mass index and asthma.
In addition, address:
1.Subject selection
2.Issues relating to the measurement of both the exposure and the outcome
3.Potential biases that the study might be prone to, and how they might be handled
4.Possible confounding factors and effect modifiers and how to overcome their effect
Present the information in a 750-1000-word report, using section headings where each requirement is described and justified under each of the following headings: Study Design, Statistical Measures, Subject Selection, and Measurement Issues.

Topic: Qualitative Methodologies
Order Description
There are many approaches to qualitative research and no fully agreed upon " list" of methodologies. Merriam (2002) describes a number of methodologies, and Chapter 3 of Hennink, (2011) describes some additional methodologies. Chwalisz, Shah, and Hand (2008) describe qualitative methodologies from the perspective of an even different list. As one can see, there is no definitive list of qualitative methodologies.
One of the best ways to learn about a variety of qualitative research methodology is to read reports of research around a topic you are interested in. A search for qualitative research of a particular topic area may reveal a variety of qualitative research in that area.
For this paper, find two dissertation that use a qualitative research methodology to answer a research question that is in the same topic area as your topic of interest. Briefly describe the research methodologies utilized in each of the dissertations you selected. You may refer to the week's reading to help you explain. Compare and contrast the two qualitative methods used: What is the same and what is different and why? Post should be at least 300 words.

Topic: Pub Health Admin and Leadership Assignment week 6
Order Description
Writing Effective Job Descriptions
Human beings undergo a natural life cycle from birth to death, passing through several stages along the way. Organizations might view human resource activities as a similar cycle from the initial hiring to the eventual termination of employment for various reasons such as promotion or transfer. Public health administrators are often involved in this human resources cycle, from workforce planning, job analysis, recruitment and selection, on-boarding, training and development, and coaching and performance appraisal. One of the most critical tasks in this cycle is recruiting and selecting individuals for public health positions who have the right skills and qualities for the position. In addition, it is important that these skills and qualities remain current as the organization and requirements change.
Although each organization and position will have unique requirements, public health administrators can become familiar with best practices in human resources. In the Learning Resources, The Public Health Foundation (n.d.-a) provides insights on public health job descriptions based on Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals, for example. Such best practices will help public health leaders create job descriptions aimed at attracting the most potentially successful candidates for the positions. Human resources professionals may revise job descriptions for existing staff to keep the organization current, as well.
For this week’s Assignment, review the Learning Resources, including the media titled Recruitment, Selection, and Retention. Consider what the individuals considered challenges in hiring and which best practices they follow in creating job descriptions. Then, read the following scenario. Browse through the various pages of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission website, and read carefully through the section titled “Discrimination by Type.” Research online sources for typical salary ranges and similar job descriptions in the Midwest United States.
Scenario:
Imagine you are the Human Resources Director at Lake Troubled Shallows Health Department, from the Final Project scenario. A key employee, a community outreach coordinator, has left the position. The organization needs a new community outreach coordinator. You have been tasked with implementing best practices not only to fill the position but also to reevaluate and improve on the job description.
The Assignment (2–3 pages):
Section I
Create a new job description for a position in public health following best human resource management practices. The job description should include the following:
Essential job duties
Essential qualifications
An average salary range for this position
Recruitment and hiring strategies for this position
Related employment laws (e.g., civil rights, age discrimination)
Section II: Summary
Describe how the job description (including duties and qualifications) might be different today from those needed in the recent past (e.g., 5 years ago) and why. Describe which best practices in human resources management you followed when creating this job description and explain why you considered them to be best practices.
Submit your Assignment by Day 7.

Topic: Formal Investigative Report - Death resulting from haemorrhage due to incised wound
Order Description
Task
Clinical Governance is the term used to describe a systematic approach to maintaining and improving
the quality of patient care within a health system. It is about the ability to produce effective change so that high quality care is achieved. It requires clinicians and administrators to take joint responsibility
for making sure this occurs.
All critical incidents result from a series of underlying/predisposing factors resulting usually from human error, and deficiencies in systems and processes or procedures. When a series of factors line up in a certain way, an adverse event results. If the sequence of events is correctly analysed, the investigator can identify its origin and key points in the sequence, this allows the investigator to design mitigation strategies that can effectively stop that same sequence from recurring.
The task in this assignment is to:
Write a 'Formal Investigative Report' about the death resulting from haemorrhage due to incised wound as reported by the South Australian Coroner.
Please use the below as a guide of what you need to include in this report, the marking criteria will also help guide you.
Introduction/Background to the Incident: A short introduction including what the report is about followed by a brief background to the critical incident.
Data: Critically examine the case to identify and explore all the predisposing factors that lead to the outcome, these factors are the 'root causes'. This information needs to be supported by a flow chart with annotations to present the complex details of the incident in an easy to view format.
Analysis: Analysis of the information presented in the 'data' section can be referred to as a 'root cause analysis' (RCA). The predisposing factors are explored in regards to why they existed and how they
lead to the incident. Any relationships between the factors is also explained. Use a 'patient safety model' diagram to demonstrate the factors that were the root causes that lead to the incident and to
identify factors that if mitigated would have prevented the incident from occurring.
NB: Root causes always form one or more chains of events. If a RCA is conducted correctly it will lead you back to the origin of this chain of events. If you can eliminate one or more of the root causes or break the chain of events you can prevent the same type of adverse event from recurring.
A patient safety model is a conceptual construct that guides the investigator in the process of analysis.
Discussion: In this section of the report current evidence-based peer reviewed literature is explored in relation to the incident and the root causes of the incident to develop a deeper understanding of the
why the incident occurred, what should have happened and how it could be prevented in the future.The National Practice Standards for the Mental Health Workforce 2013 should be discussed in relation to professional best practice with two (2) relevant practice standards being explored further. The literature discussed needs to be of a high quality and be current.
Recommendations: Evidence-based recommendations are made, which if implemented correctly would prevent the same incident from occurring again. Literature which supports the
recommendations needs to be presented, otherwise the report will have little credibility. Any recommendations must address the identified pre-disposing factors, in particular the 'root causes' and explain how the recommendations will mitigate these factors using a clear and logical approach.
Rationale
A health professional is expected to be able to reflect on and analyse their clinical practice and to be
aware of the systems in which they function. It is important to be aware of and involved in quality improvement processes. This assessment task will allow the student to explore these quality assurance
processes and to gain an understanding of the importance of their role as a health professional in regards to patient safety

Response to Classmates Post (Angela)
Respond and agree and provide additional details about the following classmates post:
According to Eugene Bardach smart practices are those opportunities that “have the latent potential to generate something of public value relatively cheaply”. It certainly makes sense to see and take advantage of solutions that have been tried in other agencies or jurisdictions and implement them instead of re-creating the wheel sort of speaking. This gives you the opportunity to utilize a tried and true mechanism as opposed to implementing a practice that may be subject to pitfalls. A practice is a tangible and visible behavior and the that is documented and commonly utilized. Typically agencies adopt practices and implement policies and procedures that staff are required to follow in their day to day activities.
My topic is childhood obesity and the primary focus of my research has been on preventing obesity by focusing on childhood habits and patterns from as early as toddler through preschool. In today’s world most households are comprised of a two income household and children are either left to be raised many hours in daycare settings which may vary from structured, licensed day care facilities to home based programs which may or may not be licensed and structured. From some of the research I have done, including First Lady, Michele Obama and her efforts with the “Let’s Move” program I have come across some amazing information that documents that toddlers, as young as two years old, are developing unhealthy habits because care givers are not educated enough on eating a healthy diet and getting enough physical activity. This is especially true in the private, in-home day cares that are unlicensed and not structured. It is imperative that we disseminate the information out through educational seminars and materials that can be made available to local communities.
Combining comprehensive strategies with a common sense theme like slogans as simple as “Let’s Move” to catch the attention of care givers and parents is the first step in the right directions. Then we need to get information out to communities that fosters an environment that supports healthy food choices and encourages physical activity for children in our day cares and schools. President Barack Obama launched an initiative to create a task force on childhood obesity that would conduct a review of every single program and policy relating to child nutrition and physical activity and develop a national plan to maximize federal resources and set concrete benchmarks toward the First Lady’s national goal. Some of the recommendations the task force set forth focus on the following five pillars:
1. Creating a health start for children from the beginning of life
2. Empowering parents and caregivers with information to promote knowledge and education on nutrition and the benefits of physical activity
3. Providing health food in schools
4. Improving access to healthy, affordable foods
5. Programs that promote physical activity.
One smart practice that Eugene Bardach mentioned in the text was to implement features that directly embody the basic mechanism. The basic mechanism is a means of directly accomplishing useful work in a cost effective manner. The basic mechanism of my topic is to educate and provide knowledge to those who have a direct impact on children in the community and to affect a change. These individuals are the parents and care givers of the children. If we target the parents, care givers and day cares through community wide education seminars, fliers, posters and open forum discussions and get their attention we can deliver an extremely important message about why it is imperative to eat healthy and get enough physical activity from an early age so that our children never have to contend with being overweight. By avoiding the problem we will improve the health and well being of the children in our communities. As the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It is important to get the message out that everyone plays a role in reducing childhood obesity and that your involvement is key to ensuring a healthy future for our children. Make people accountable for their actions and they will take a more active role in becoming involved.
On the Let’s Move website there is a link that community leaders can click on to check out the programs in their area that have been made available through The Let’s Move Initiative. Fact sheets are available for down loading as well as other educational material that can be shared with community groups, daycare employees, parents and teacher organizations for literally only the cost of printing the material for the community. This information can be utilized and shared to help educate parents and care givers and promote the initiatives of leading a healthy life style. According to the site, one in five children is overweight or obese by the time they reach the age of 6 years old. It is estimated that "about 12 million babies and young children in childcare nationwide, child care providers have the power to instill healthy choice that could prevent obesity from the start" and avoid potential life threatening problems down the road.
Therefore one smart practice I would recommend with reference to childhood obesity is for local day cares to have staff visit the “Let’s Move” site, click on the child care section and download and print the educational material that is available to share with their workers, parents and care givers of these toddlers and young children. They can also create discussion groups where all can come together and discuss the educational material that is available. Perhaps even play groups and meet up groups can form with the parents of the children in day care can meet up at a local park encourage their children to run and play, get fresh air and the parents can also be outside and enjoy outdoor activity with their peers and children all for relatively no cost. This would be an excellent smart practice based upon the basic mechanism of downloading educational information and sharing it with their community.

According to Eugene Bardach smart practices are those opportunities that “have the latent potential to generate something of public value relatively cheaply”. It certainly makes sense to see and take advantage of solutions that have been tried in other agencies or jurisdictions and implement them instead of re-creating the wheel sort of speaking. This gives you the opportunity to utilize a tried and true mechanism as opposed to implementing a practice that may be subject to pitfalls. A practice is a tangible and visible behavior and the that is documented and commonly utilized. Typically agencies adopt practices and implement policies and procedures that staff are required to follow in their day to day activities.
My topic is childhood obesity and the primary focus of my research has been on preventing obesity by focusing on childhood habits and patterns from as early as toddler through preschool. In today’s world most households are comprised of a two income household and children are either left to be raised many hours in daycare settings which may vary from structured, licensed day care facilities to home based programs which may or may not be licensed and structured. From some of the research I have done, including First Lady, Michele Obama and her efforts with the “Let’s Move” program I have come across some amazing information that documents that toddlers, as young as two years old, are developing unhealthy habits because care givers are not educated enough on eating a healthy diet and getting enough physical activity. This is especially true in the private, in-home day cares that are unlicensed and not structured. It is imperative that we disseminate the information out through educational seminars and materials that can be made available to local communities.
Combining comprehensive strategies with a common sense theme like slogans as simple as “Let’s Move” to catch the attention of care givers and parents is the first step in the right directions. Then we need to get information out to communities that fosters an environment that supports healthy food choices and encourages physical activity for children in our day cares and schools. President Barack Obama launched an initiative to create a task force on childhood obesity that would conduct a review of every single program and policy relating to child nutrition and physical activity and develop a national plan to maximize federal resources and set concrete benchmarks toward the First Lady’s national goal. Some of the recommendations the task force set forth focus on the following five pillars:
1. Creating a health start for children from the beginning of life
2. Empowering parents and caregivers with information to promote knowledge and education on nutrition and the benefits of physical activity
3. Providing health food in schools
4. Improving access to healthy, affordable foods
5. Programs that promote physical activity.
One smart practice that Eugene Bardach mentioned in the text was to implement features that directly embody the basic mechanism. The basic mechanism is a means of directly accomplishing useful work in a cost effective manner. The basic mechanism of my topic is to educate and provide knowledge to those who have a direct impact on children in the community and to affect a change. These individuals are the parents and care givers of the children. If we target the parents, care givers and day cares through community wide education seminars, fliers, posters and open forum discussions and get their attention we can deliver an extremely important message about why it is imperative to eat healthy and get enough physical activity from an early age so that our children never have to contend with being overweight. By avoiding the problem we will improve the health and well being of the children in our communities. As the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It is important to get the message out that everyone plays a role in reducing childhood obesity and that your involvement is key to ensuring a healthy future for our children. Make people accountable for their actions and they will take a more active role in becoming involved.
On the Let’s Move website there is a link that community leaders can click on to check out the programs in their area that have been made available through The Let’s Move Initiative. Fact sheets are available for down loading as well as other educational material that can be shared with community groups, daycare employees, parents and teacher organizations for literally only the cost of printing the material for the community. This information can be utilized and shared to help educate parents and care givers and promote the initiatives of leading a healthy life style. According to the site, one in five children is overweight or obese by the time they reach the age of 6 years old. It is estimated that "about 12 million babies and young children in childcare nationwide, child care providers have the power to instill healthy choice that could prevent obesity from the start" and avoid potential life threatening problems down the road.

What Is a Job Analysis and How Does It Affect Human Resources Management?
Think about a job or position you have held. Over time, did you think of ways you could do it better? Did you analyze the tasks you were doing and conclude they should be done by someone else or vice versa? If so, you were doing an informal analysis of your job. A job analysis is the systematic process of collecting information about all of the parameters of a job—its basic responsibilities, the behaviors, skills, and the physical and mental requirements of the people who do it.
A job analysis should also outline the tools needed to do the job, the environment and times at which it needs to be done, with whom it needs to be done, and the outcome or performance level it should produce.Footnote Normally, a manager or an HR manager such as a job analyst is responsible for collecting the information for a job analysis. These people rely on the cooperation of employees and their supervisors to gather the information needed for the analysis of jobs.
Carefully reviewing the Chapter 4 discussion on Job Analysis and using the information given there to complete the project will be critical. Use the "Critical Incident Approach" and the "Competency-Based Approach" to Job Analysis.(these can be found online)
Please avoid asking personal questions that might be viewed as inappropriate by the job holder. Make sure that your job description is derived from the answers to your questions given by the job holder. The complete answers given by the jobholder and any other supporting relevant information should be in the appendix.
Here is how you should approach the writing, organizing, and structuring of your Job Analysis Assignment.
Having a cover page is important with any assignment. The cover page should have your complete name, and title of the assignment. The cover page should contain information regarding which section of the HR class you are in and the time it meets. The date that you are turning in the assignment should be on the cover page. You should have a brief abstract on the cover page as well. Have a Table of Contents in the next page.
Your Job Analysis assignment should have five sections as given below and these should be clearly marked using subtitles. In addition, in some of the sections, you will need to have subsections. I give you the structure below that you should use.
Section 1 is your Executive Summary. This should be about two double spaced pages (20%).
In the Executive Summary, you should do the following: Describe and summarize this field project in your own words. How did you go about this project? Which organization did you contact and what does this company do? Which position (give the title) in this company did you select for your job analysis? Is this an exempt or a non-exempt position?
How did you go about collecting data for the job analysis? (Specify the method or combination of methods used such as interviews, observation, questionnaires, etc.). Which individual or individuals did you collect the data from (through interviews and observations - give positions, names, and dates). Were you able to verify the validity of the data collected through other sources (such as the supervisor of the person you interviewed)? Based on your Job Description and Job Specification, what are your observations regarding the adequacy of the current selection procedures and the performance standards for this job? What are your recommendations to improve these?
Section 2: Preparation for the Job Analysis. Answer each question. Two double spaced pages (20%).
1. How did you prepare to conduct the job analysis?
2. Why did you select the method or methods that you did?
3. Reference the questions that you prepared in advance of the interview of the job holder and give the answers that you received from the jobholder (put these in the appendix only)
4. How did you derive these questions?
5. Did you arrange to observe the job holders or spend some time with them at work?
6. How did you plan to verify the information collected?
Section 3: Conducting the Job Analysis (Answer each question). Two double spaced pages (20%).
1. Where did you interview the job holder or job holders?
2. How long did the interview or interviews last? `
3. Were you able to ask all your questions and get adequate information?
4. Were you able to observe the job holder at work?
5. Were you able to verify the information by speaking to the supervisor or other qualified experts?
6. Was there anything you could have done to further enhance the data collection?
Section 4 : Job Description and Job Specification (Make sure that this fits and is consistent with the answers you received in the appendix). You should use the format in Chapter 4 but can enhance it or modify it if you want to be more descriptive). Two to three double spaced pages (30%).
Section 5: Conclusion: Describe what you learned in doing this project. One double spaced page (10%).
