How Does This Relate to Me?
Prior to beginning this journal entry, read “The Development of Expertise in Performance: The Role of Memory, Knowledge, Learning, and Practice” and “Transitions and the Development of Expertise,” as well as review all other required resources. It is important for you to have already completed your initial post in the “Learning Trends” discussion before you compose this journal entry.
Part 1: As you were reading this week, what vocabulary was used that was unfamiliar to you or might be to your peers? Identify three to five words from this week’s content and research each word in the context of learning and cognition. Explain, in your own words, what each word means and how it is used in the context of learning and cognition.
Part 2: Based on the week’s discourse and content, you will access the Ashford University Library and research one scholarly article pertaining to expertise that was published within the last 10 years. Provide a summary explanation of the findings on “expertise” in the context of your article. What implications should scholars consider based on this information? Support your explanation utilizing this week’s resources and your researched article.
Part 3: Consider the events from the past week of your life. How does expertise, or the perception of it, affect our behaviors, actions, and knowledge development? Describe one personal real-life example of an occurrence that supports the implications of actual expertise, or the perception of it, on our behaviors and actions toward others. As you share this information, consider and apply the professional standards found in “12.06 Anonymity of Sources”found in the AERA Code of Ethics (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..
Part 4: Review “Principle A: Professional Competence” in the AERA Code of Ethics (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. What implications should be considered in your scholarly writing and observations? How might you check for competence of the research in articles and research studies you read? Explain the public impression(s) and misconception(s) that can occur when secular articles or studies (e.g., Yahoo survey results, newspaper reports) are used instead of findings from peer-reviewed sources.
Each journal entry should be 400 to 700 words in length and should establish your understanding of the content, apply appropriate methods of ethical practices, and exhibit appropriate scaffolding of personal experience to the week’s content.

In this assignment, you will examine the international legal entities dealing with global health law incidents. Read “Cholera Outbreak in Zimbabwe” (5.2) on pages 68-69 in An Introduction to Global Health Ethics. In this case study, you explore options available for dealing with this health crisis. Write a 4-5 page paper evaluating the steps Zimbabwe should take in dealing with this situation and provide your recommendation on how to remedy a future situation. Your report should address the following substantive requirements:
• Examine the purpose of laws.
• Describe and assess each agency that would be involved in the situation. Include pros and cons for international involvement in state affairs.
• Develop a law that would prevent such a breakdown from occurring in the future and use reasoning to illustrate why such a law would not be considered intrusive. Your well-written report should meet the following requirements: • Be 4-5 pages in length, not including the cover or reference pages.
• Formatted according to Saudi Electronic University and APA writing guidelines.
• Provide support for your statements with in-text citations from a minimum of four scholarly articles. Two of these sources may be from the class readings, textbook, or lectures, but two must be external.
• Utilize the following headings to organize the content in your work: o Introduction, o Description and Assessment, o Recommendation, and o Conclusion. Case study 5.2 Cholera outbreak in Zimbabwe Due to crumbling infrastructure, sewage plants in Zimbabwe begin leaking raw sewage into rivers. Within weeks, thousands of people who rely on the rivers contract cholera. The Zimbabwean government denies that the country is experiencing a cholera pandemic, despite thousands of deaths and sick refugees presenting in bordering countries, and refuses to act on the emergency. Can the international community legally intervene in instances when a state is unwilling or unable to control an epidemic? The above scenario mirrors what occurred in Zimbabwe in 2008, and raises the question of what recourse populations have in the event of a disaster if their host state is incapable or unwilling to provide basic aid and is reluctant to request international assistance.
Currently there is no general convention that governs all aspects of disaster relief, in stark contrast to international humanitarian law, which protects civilians during armed conflicts (Davies 2010). On the question of humanitarian access, international law tends to favour the protection of sovereignty and territorial integrity over the protection of populations (United Nations 2007). However, while international law does not currently govern humanitarian disasters, the WHO’s revised IHR (2005) lists cholera as one of the diseases about which states are required to notify WHO, due to its potential serious public health impact and its ability to spread internationally. The IHR requires that states request international assistance if they have insufficient antidotes, drugs, vaccine, protection equipment and financial, human and material resources to contain the disease. The breakdown of the public health system in Zimbabwe, the case fatality rate of cholera victims, and the speed at which the disease spread in 2008 all pointed to the state being unable to effectively contain the disease outbreak (Davies 2010). In terms of the IHR 2005, Zimbabwe’s 2008 cholera outbreak constituted an emergency and the Zimbabwean government had a duty to accept the assistance offered by WHO and various NGOs.
In instances where a state still refuses to accept international intervention in the face of a major disease outbreak, the UN Security Council could become involved. The UN High-level Panel on Threats, Challenges, and Change (United Nations 2004) noted that in certain instances: [T]he Security Council should be prepared to support the work of WHO investigators or to deploy experts reporting directly to the Council, and if existing International Health Regulations do not provide adequate access for WHO investigations and response coordination, the Security Council should be prepared to mandate greater compliance. In the event that a State is unable to adequately quarantine large numbers of potential carriers, the Security Council should be prepared to support international action to assist in cordon operations. The Security Council should consult with the WHO Director-General to establish the necessary procedures for working together in the event. Due to the possibility of being classified as a failed state (which would have opened the door to possible UN Security Council intervention), the Zimbabwe government eventually declared the cholera outbreak a national emergency in December 2008, and invited WHO to coordinate a Health Cluster response effort with the cooperation of the Zimbabwe health ministry and other nongovernmental agencies.

 

We recently watched a video in which Lawrence Lessig made an impassioned plea for expansion of fair use of copyrighted material. Briefly describe the concept of fair use and the limitations that have been placed on it, especially due to the explosion of user-generated content on YouTube. Please comment on the tension between the rights of artists to maintain exclusive use of their creations versus the potential benefits from transformative reuse.
2. Illegal trade in endangered animals and animal parts has brought a number of species to the brink of extinction. Outline the features that make certain types of animals more likely to be endangered, and comment on the potential for private ownership and husbandry to alleviate or eliminate this concern. Include as a part of your response the extra difficulties presented by the extremely high value of some of these animal parts, and potential responses discussed by Allen in his paper on the Rhino’s horn.
3. During the class, Dr. Jeffrey Barrows gave a forceful presentation about human trafficking in the United States. It was especially disturbing to hear that girls as young as twelve are enticed into sex trafficking, that many adult prostitutes started into the business in their early teens, and that most prostitutes are also addicted to drugs. Describe how this information would impact an economic analysis of the sex trade, especially one that might view prostitution as a market with suppliers and customers engaging in voluntary exchange of services.
4. The illegal trade in human organs brings together economics and ethical concerns in a number of troubling ways. Describe how the current organ donation system in the United States leads almost inevitably to an illegal market for organs. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of a well regulated organ sale market in the US, one that likely would involve a high degree of regulation and control by the federal government.
