Organizations often have a vested interest in their employees and provide a means to boost each employee’s performance and career development. Given the methods discussed in this module’s readings, examine the role of the manager in an employee’s career development and in a 3- to 4-pages report indicate ways in which the manager could improve opportunities for employee development and growth and the reasons for the suggested improvements.
Directions:
Utilizing scholarly resources, research various methods an organization uses in the career development of its employees. In 3- to 4-pages:

Determine and describe at least three opportunities that an organization may present to encourage employee career development and performance.
Explain the pros and cons of each of these opportunities.
Discuss the role the manager plays in an employee’s career development.
Determine and explain which roles are the easiest and which the most difficult for a typical manager.
Select at least two methods that may be used to measure the effectiveness of each development opportunity provided by the organization or management (from Step 2). Justify your answer.

There has been an increasing interest on the part of American consumers in having genetically modified or engineered foods labeled. Currently, 64 countries require these labels and efforts are underway in over 30 states to require labeling, even though the federal government has shied away from any uniform labeling requirements. The science does not seem to support some of the concerns that people are voicing. So far, studies have not identified any health risks from consuming these foods. The FDA and USDA consider these modified or engineered foods equivalent to their non-altered counterparts, and thus not requiring labeling. The public, however, is not convinced. Even scientists and researchers will admit that these foods have been around for a relatively short time, and most studies are done on laboratory animals, such as mice, so no one can guarantee that there are no possible future adverse effects. Crops, such as corn and soy beans, have been grown using GE/GM seeds for many years in the U.S. These crops go into hundreds of processed and prepared food items most of us eat every day. In this discussion, you will get a chance to formulate an opinion based on the scientific research and share your views with others.
Completing this activity will assist you in mastering Module Level Outcomes 2 and 3.
First:
Be sure you have read the assigned materials on this topic:

U.S. Food and Drug Administration: Consumer Info about Food from Genetically Engineered Plants  (Retrieved from: http://www.fda.gov/food/ingredientspackaginglabeling/geplants/ucm461805.htm)

Then:

Create your initial post in response to the following question. Be sure to support your position with facts and scientific information, not opinions. You may want to refer to both the required and optional readings provided in this module to support your position fully. Additional research through the ECLibrary is also a great idea.

Should the U.S. require labeling of all genetically modified or engineered food? Why or why not?

As in M4D1, please select a minimum of two of your fellow students to respond to, and try to pick posts that illustrate different viewpoints than the one you selected.

Your initial post responding to this assignment should be no shorter than 250 words. Include both in-text citations and complete APA style references for all the sources you used to inform your workThe post M4D2 first appeared on Nursing School Essays.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO THIS ASSIGNMENT JUST KNOW THIS PAYMENT IS FOR JUST THE FIRST PART ONLY! I WILL REPOST WHEN TOPIC IS APPROVED FOR THE SECOND PART!!!
There are two parts to this assignment so do them seperatly. First part is as follows:
You will be completing a self-management project in Week 5, and your topic needs to be approved by your instructor to ensure it is behavioral, measurable, and objectively defined. Doing so ensures that you select an appropriate topic but also gets you thinking about how to operationally define behavior.
Choose a target behavior for your Week 5 Self-Management Project.
Write a 175-word summary on the target behavior in observable and measurable terms. Include the methods that will be used to observe and acquire baseline data.
Submit your target behavior description, along with the dimension you will be measuring to your instructor for approval.
Second part is this:
This cumulative assignment allows you to consider everything you have learned over the past 5 weeks in an attempt to change a behavior of your own. This overall process is similar to what a board-certified behavior analyst would compete with a new client.
Refer to the approved behavior you would like to change, based on your submission to your instructor in Week 3.
Track baseline data over a 3-day period, using the Baseline Data Worksheet.
Write a 1,400- to 1,750-word paper that outlines an intervention plan for changing that behavior, in which you discuss the following:

Describe the target behavior.
Outline the dimensions of measurement/baseline measurement.
Describe the function of the baseline behavior.
Outline the goals of the behavioral change.
Propose a behavior intervention plan based on goals.

Provide a minimum of 2 antecedent changes.
Provide 4 to 5 consequence modifications. Choose consequences based on at least four of the following: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, negative punishment, positive punishment, and extinction. 

Describe any potential barriers to treatment, as well as how you would overcome these barriers.
Describe the expected outcome if the behavior intervention plan was implemented and followed.

Format your paper according to APA guidelines.
Submit your Baseline Data Worksheet along with your paper.
I NEED SOMEONE TO DO BOTH PARTS, THE FIRST PART IS DUE 7/14/17 AND IF THAT TOPIC IS APPROVED THEN THE SEND PART IS DUE 7/21/17.
IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO THIS ASSIGNMENT JUST KNOW THIS PAYMENT IS FOR JUST THE FIRST PART ONLY! I WILL REPOST WHEN TOPIC IS APPROVED FOR THE SECOND PART!!!

Search for research articles from peer-reviewed publications. Examples of peer-reviewed publications are listed in Table 2.1 in Chapter 2 of Methods in Behavioral Research.
Select four research articles to review. Include at least one applied research article and one basic research article. Be sure to apply the scientific method to evaluate the evidence presented in the selected articles. Use these articles as a framework for completing the questionnaire.
Write a 100- to 500-word answer to each of the following questions:
PART I:

What is the purpose of each of the sections in a typical research article?
What are the steps to critically evaluate research articles and how does the scientific method help you do this?

PART II:

What is the importance of research in behavioral sciences?
What is the relationship between applied research and basic research? Provide an example from your selected studies, of how each contributes to the body of knowledge.
What ethical issues can you identify in the selected articles? How were the issues addressed or neglected?

PART III:

Identify three possible research topics that you might want to explore further as you go through this course.
List appropriate sources, including databases that you might use when exploring these topics.

Respond with three scholarly references. Use citations, cite your references.  
Cite the articles using a reference page.
Format your answers according to APA guidelines.

 Frequently when the shortage of primary care providers is mentioned with regard to healthcare reform, insurance companies and other institutions forget to factor in the impact nurse practitioners can have on increasing access. How do you think we can improve this understanding of the nurse practitioner role?
