In this assignment you will write an autobiographical essay about your own gender identity. Questions you should consider addressing include:

● What gender were you assigned at birth? Who decided? Based on what information did they make the decision? How did your parents feel about your sex/gender? What expectations did they have of you and your life based on what sex you were assigned at birth? One thing you could do is talk to (in person or over the phone) the people who were there when you were born and ask them about this.

● How do you think your life would have been different if you had been born a different sex/gender?

● What was your gender socialization like during early childhood? When is the first time you became aware of your gender or can remember thinking “I am a boy.” or “I am a girl.” Where were you? How did you find out you were a boy/girl? What did you think of it?

● What were the main gender milestones throughout your life? What were the defining moments of your gender? When you think of your own gender identity, what are the specific memories that you have and why are they meaningful to you?

● What are the things you feel like you have to/must do because of your gender identity? What are you required to do? What are you not allowed to do? What parts of your gender identity do you like? What parts do you dislike and why? Are there things you wish you could do that you can’t/don’t do because of your gender?

● Are there ways that you are gender-nonconforming? How? Why?

● In what ways is your gender stereotypical? How? Why?

● How are you treated because of your gender? What are aspects of this treatment do you like/dislike?

● What choices do you make about your gender? How do you do your gender? What kind of man or woman (or other) are you? What kind of man/woman/other do you want to or try to be? What aspects of your gender are important to you?

● What roles do you play in your life because of what your gender is?

● Whose gender do you admire (this could be someone you know in your life or a famous person or a character — whatever) — why do you admire it?

● How is your gender influenced by other aspects of your identity (e.g. your race, sexuality, age, culture, religion, ethnicity, etc)? Formatting guidelines: 5-10 double-spaced pages 12 pt font, not bold, not italicized, Times New Roman or Arial or Calibri or Garamond. Use headings that break your paper into sections. You have a lot of freedom in how you organize it. You should decide which of the above questions are most interesting to you, what stories you want to tell, in what order, etc. I’d say just start writing and see what happens. After you draft it, read what you have written and then write an introduction telling the reader (me) what’s to come. Be brave. Get creative. Tell stories. Use concepts that we have learned in the course. Tie readings or films into your essay about yourself. I.e. describe parts of this course (or others) that have impacted the way that you think about your own gender identity. This is really an essay about you — but lean on course materials where it is useful or helpful. I encourage you to be vulnerable and personal but obviously don’t disclose anything you’re not willing to share with me.

Introduction
Everybody is born with a unique gender identity. This affects their lives from the time when they were growing up and until the days when they are already mature enough to make their own decisions in life. However, recognizing one’s identity is not an easy task. It doesn’t matter whether you are straight or a member of the LGBTQ community in order to feel the weight of gender identity (and the expectations that it includes). In this article, I would like to share my own upbringing and the effects of the different expectations based on who I am. I would also discuss my insights on being a woman and what are the things that I think should be changed.

Story of My Life
Being born as a girl in a traditional community within Hong Kong, I was raised with a traditionalist (conservative) mindset that men and women are distinctive with one another.

That is the man provides food for his family, while the woman takes care of the children. This notion has been dominant in my way of thinking back then, since most of the time that I played with my dolls, I gave the role of the hard-working man for the father and the home stay mother who always take care of the children. However, as I grew up and realized the hardships that my mother went through (my sister died during childbirth), I had the awareness that traditional gender expectations are farther from reality as I had previously expected. One example of such difference is my case.

Lab Exercise (30 Points) Antigens and Blood Typing In this lab, you will complete a simulation about a car crash and the importance of proper blood typing for blood transfusions. Follow these instructions to complete your online lab for this module: 1. Click on the following link, or copy and paste the link into your browser: http://www(dot)nobelprize(dot)org/educational/medicine/bloodtypinggame/gamev2/index.html 2. Then click “proceed” at the bottom right of the screen. 3. On the screen that says “Select Game Type,” click “Quick Game – Random Patients” on the left. 4. The next screen should say “Car Crash Victims.” Click “Main Menu” on the top right. 5. On the Main Menu screen, read three brief tutorials on the left and answer the questions below. (Note: After reading the tutorial, click “BACK,” which is in small print on the right side of the burgundy blood typing logo at the top of the page.) Lab Exercise Readiness Questions In what year did Karl Landsteiner discover ABO human blood groups? Later, in 1940, Landsteiner discovered another blood group. What is the name of that blood group system? According to Tutorial 1, how many blood types are there? To determine blood type, you need to know which antigens are present. Which antibodies are contained in the three types of reagents? After mixing the reagent with the blood samples, what does agglutination of the sample indicate? Describe what happens when blood agglutinates. If a person has lost blood due to an injury or surgery, or has anemia, what is the most commonly transfused part of the blood? Explain what happens if a person receives the wrong blood in a transfusion? What does the term “compatible blood” mean in relationship to blood transfusions? What happens in emergencies when there is no time for blood typing? When you write your report or presentation after completing the lab, integrate the answers to these questions in your introduction and discussion where they would be appropriate. Then proceed with the rest of the lab: 6. Now that you are familiar with how the game is played, click “Start Playing” on the right. 7. The first screen will ask you to select a patient. Since you will test all three patients, select any one of the patients. 8. Follow the instructions in the call-outs to draw blood, and drop blood into all three of the test tubes. You will then choose the patient’s blood type and Rh factor: If you are incorrect, you will get a message that says, “You’re bloody wrong. Try again.” Try again by clicking on the drop of blood with an X in the center on the right. You can continue to try until you receive the message that says, “You’re bloody right.” After you identify the blood type correctly, click on the drop of blood with the X in the center. This will take you to “Blood Transfusion,” where you will select the compatible blood for the patient’s transfusion. Note that on the bottom left, it states the number of blood bags required. An arrow on the right side of the blood bags will allow you to access additional compatible samples. 9. Continue to play this game until you are able to save the lives of your three patients. Click “Back,” which is at the very top right hand corner of the page. This will take you to a screen that returns you to the game types. 10. Select the middle game, called Mission Based Game. Register for the game using your CSU-Global email address. Play each of the six missions at least one time. When completed, list the following information. Number of blood-typed patients Number of administered blood bags Number of treated patients 11. After completing this lab, draft your Formal Lab Report. The required outline and structure for this report are below. Create a Report Use the following outline to describe the data from your lab in a report. Label each portion of the lab as described below. Introduction: Start with a broad discussion about blood and its importance, and narrow your focus to the topic of the lab. Be sure to describe the ABO blood types and the Rh factor. Discussion of some of the readiness questions would also be appropriate here. Conclude the introduction with a statement that reflects what you expect to observe during this lab. Material List: Identify all items that you used and the exact quantities, as applicable. This may be a very short section. Methods: Describe how you conducted the experiment, including any safety precautions you took while performing the lab. Be sure to include any changes that you made to the original instructions. This should be a short, paraphrased version of the methods from the lab. Do not copy from the lab; Turnitin will highlight it as plagiarism. Results/Data: Create a table or figure that reflects/compares the results of your experiment. Discussion: Review your results and discuss whether they were expected. Explain why. Bring in relevant details to expand on the topic. Discuss why proper blood types are important for persons involved in an accident. Do you know your blood type or the blood type of your family members? Discussion of some of the readiness questions would also be appropriate here. Conclusion: End with a section describing something that intrigued you about the lab; identify errors that may have impacted your results, or note errors in the lab itself; and provide recommendations for future labs. Requirements: If you are doing the report, it should be 3-4 pages long, not including the title page. Reference at least two journal articles. Include a title page, or a title slide for the presentation, and references at the end. Follow the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA.

Essay #4: Comedy, the first person, & empathy   English 110 Background: In this unit, we’ll watch two comedy specials that function as monologues and soliloquys: Hannah Gadsby’s “Nanette” and Hasan Minhaj’s “Homecoming King.” Both of these pieces are like first-person essays, or like memoir, combined with an artistic, deliberate visual performance. These comics use their comedy as a way to discuss difficult issues, like homophobia, sexual assault, racism, and class. We’ll also read critical essays on first-person writing itself, and consider how these theories can help us understand these comics’ messages. Every choice the comic makes—what words they choose, their punchlines and repetition, their eye contact, their movement, their gestures—are all a part of their message. The way they tell their story is as important as the story itself. Their first-person narrative and performance help us, the audience, feel empathy for the speaker in different ways, and help us accept difficult issues that we might not accept otherwise. Learning Goals: Your goal for this essay is to expand your knowledge of close reading of literary elements (essay #1), analysis of broader themes and structures (essay #2), integrating a real-world lens (essay #3), and combine all of these skills into one coherent, analytical argument.   The task: Choose one of the comedians from this unit, and then write a 1,500-word essay answering the following questions:
  1. What is the message of this monologue/soliloquy?
  2. How does their form of the monologue/soliloquy help the reader to feel empathy and accept this difficult idea?
  How to do it: More detail You will be considering how the comedians in this unit use first-person narration to convey their message. Remember to analyze means to break down. You should treat your chosen monologue/soliloquy the way you would any of the pieces we’ve read this semester, and consider how the different tools the comic uses come together to create meaning.   For your thesis: This is another way of asking about the theme of the piece! But in this case, you’re specifically considering the relationship between how they tell their first-person story, empathy, and their message.   For your body paragraphs: Consider the tools the comics use/the elements of the comedy routine, both verbal and visual (specifically, metaphors and similes, structure, pacing, word choice, tone, posture, facial expressions, visual elements, gestures, etc.) and how each allows us to develop empathy and connect with the speaker in order to accept their idea. Audience: Consider your reader as someone not in our class. They will need context and explanation for who your comic is, what their special is about, and any key terms you’re using. Outside Source Requirement: For this essay, please integrate at least one of the critical sources on first-person narratives we discuss in class/I provide for you to help support your argument about the comic’s message. Your source should be integrated in a meaningful way, rather than just thrown in as a single quote. (more on next page) Need help? Review my lecture videos, your homework and prewriting assignments, and make an appointment at the writing center, or with me! I’m happy to help. Requirements (what to do to pass) (A essays do these things very well and are highly polished)
  • 1,500 words minimum
  • Demonstrate your analysis and close reading skills throughout
  • Demonstrate knowledge of literary elements
  • Include a compelling introduction that includes a hook, introduces your chosen piece, and includes a thesis
  • Include evidence—each body paragraph should include at least one quote from either your chosen comic or a critical source
  • Meaningfully include at least one critical source
  • Includes a conclusion that answers the “and now what?” question
  • Be thoroughly proofread (especially for homonyms and lowercase i’s)
  • Demonstrate knowledge of sentence boundaries
  • Demonstrate deliberate paragraphing choices (one main idea per paragraph)
  • Include a title
  • Use a 12-point, readable font
  • Be double-spaced
  • Include page numbers
  • Include an MLA Works Cited page
  • Be original work—As stated on the syllabus: You may not pay someone else to write your essay. You may not Google what others have said about the comic and use that to come up with ideas. All ideas must be your own. Our class time will help you generate your own ideas! You must write your paper yourself. Consulting sources that specifically discuss the comic, in physical print or online, will be considered cheating unless it is properly and judiciously documented.

It is me again. This time, i need some help to write an About Me page (i have previous written three examples differently, so you can have some content when writing it). This is an English course, where the grades will be given based on English Hooks, Branding, Tone, Voice (e.g. when you write the course you studied, you need to also include something like what is the purpose you pick that course). Anyway i will list down the requirements below, and attach a copy of my About Me so you can use the content. Oh yah, i need this before 21 February, please help me out, i just need around 200-220 words. Title: Create an action-packed About page Requirement 1. Tell your story in about 200 words. You can either revise one of your draft, or write a new “about me” story. 2. Feel free to add quotes about yourself from a family member or friends if you wished. 3. This is an About Page, but also “My story” 4. At this point, you’re probably thinking about how your personal description can be made more visually engaging as an About page on your site. 5. At the end of the day, this About Me story will be posted on a website. 6. Grade will be based both on (a) how well you revise your written description and (b) whether your visual layout is attractive and a good match for your story. Writing Goal: Turn your personal description into a capsule story for your About page. In this story of your life, convey only the most relevant details and (perhaps) a few fun quirks and twists. Design Goal: We’ve asked you to add a photo of yourself, but consider adding other images as well. Also, think about other ways to make the layout attractive: subheadings, pullquotes, or highlighed text blocks. Hint: If you add an interview quote from a friend or family member, that’s a good chance to try out a different text format.

Diploid vs. Haploid Cells. Bozeman Science Now, if we shift from the idea that any trait is inherited by a species in a family lineage, AKA Mendel’s first law, the principle law of segregation, we can begin to see some of the other complexity in the basic inheritance model. In this section we will review the idea of genes as opposed to taits. Think of traits as the whole cake and the genes as the precise instructions for how to use, make, and acquire the ingredients for the cake. The cake has traits for certain; the frosting, the decorations, the filling, the bread or cake layers, and the decorations. However, how to get what is needed and how to use it are not easily observed as are the traits. The key concept we are using here is Mendel’s second law of independent assortment. Meaning, we are making the assumption based on previous work that traits are inherited from the parents. Next, we are trying to show how the instructions for a trait exist in independent packs. The independent gene usually works in combination with other genes. To add to complexity genes can be expressed or not. Meaning , a gene may be present but not show, this is referred to as dominance and recessive. As we have learned that cells contain DNA which activates things by using RNA, both are ractive and function to produce and build proteins which do things. The details for production are in the genes. How the genes show are the traits. Simply stated cells contain DNA which uses RNA to build proteins and the information on how to do that are stored in genes as segments of the DNA. The things built are known as traits. Gametes Now, as we continue the exploration of inheritance we have established that cells are micro-machines which store all the things needed for production and function. In this lesson we are demonstrating Mendel’s second law of independent assortment. Hence, we use the cell. There is a special kind of cell, a sex cell, referred to as a gamete, which is either a sperm or an ovum. A sex cell gets one of the of alleles from each parent. An allele is a gene for something but is a variant form. For example, is a gene for sex type is variant because it has a combination of X for male and Y for female. The offspring inherit the genes either xxs and or y from the parents. Consequently the genetic structure for offspring can vary. The X and Y are alleles. It is at times complex to understand genetics but for this course we will explore a few of the ideas. For example, an allele can be viewed with the ABo blood groups. That is, for humans we have three basic and understated alleles for blood; A , B, and o. We have genetic types for blood which are similar but… what is not similar is the specific cell type. They are similar for blood, but not because of what type. They are similar because of the function but not type. Those parts of the gene which code for the type are alleles. There is an added complexity sometimes and rarely, one allele is truly dominant over another. In the expression of genes for humans in the ABo blood groups A and B are codominant. Meaning they coexist on more or less equal standing. However, o type is not dominant and is referred to as recessive. That is, type o is passive to A or B and will not change the blood to type o. This is not too complex so far. However, the truth be told it is far more complex such as when considering the ideas of Rh factors, what parts of a cell or gene are dominant and which are recessive become a more complex puzzle to build. That is, basic Mendelian models for inheritance may not be adequate for resolving more complex issues but it is a start. There are reasons that more complex models need to be considered two are pleiotropy and polygenetics. Meaning that with pleiotropy, one gene can be used as a tool for many effects. Another iswith, polygenetics which uses more than one gene or for any one of many effects. It is not simple to start at the more complex and more accurate models.Therefore, it is useful to start with a two part model (refer to img.Gamete Selection 1 and 2) then to move onto more complex ones (refer to img.Gamete Selection 3) for example a much more complex 3 sets in two part model (refer to img.Gamete Selection 4). However, it is important to note the simple steps are not able to present the complexity of the human genome. Starting with some simple ideas, the genotypes for blood are different from the blood groups. For humans simply and usually blood groups are referred to as A, B, and o. However, the groups are actually made of two alleles for the blood cell. The alleles for A, B, or o types can combine in a two part system. A mother or a father must have at least two alleles but may have the alleles in combination. For example in an ABo blood group, a parent with type A has either genotype from below as a genotype. Both are simply named type A blood group. 1.AA (homozygous dominant) same 2.Ao (heterozygous) different 3.AB (codominant) both show Blood also has other genotypes for example; if one parent has genotype AA blood and the other parent has genotype BB blood then the offspring will get one A from parent one and one B from parent two resulting in type AB blood (codominant) (refer to table1). This shows Mendel’s first law, the principle law of segregation. However, a parent could be A for the blood group but their genotype could be Ao. This complicates the issue because now there are two sex cell options for blood grenotypes from that parent who has Ao alleles for A blood group, not just A but also an allelle for o. Consequently, when we combine parent one with Ao with parent two BB the outcome is less clear because each parent passes on half of their genotype. In the case of parent two it is simply a B because there are no other choices. However, for parent one it is either A or o. Therefore the offspring of the two parents could inherit A, B or o because they are options. Meaning the offspring could be AB (codominant) or Bo (heterozygous). This shows Mendel’s second law of independent assortment that the traits exist in packets which can be transferred to offspring independently. This can be shown in a handy tool known as a Punnett Square (refer to table 1 and table 2). It is used by placing one of the parent’s(p1)genotype in the first column and other parent’s (p2) on the top row. Then using the intersections to predict the genotypic outcome of the offspring. Table 1: Mendel’s principle law of segregation The only outcome is AB which came from the parents Table 2: Mendel’s law of independent assortment Because the alleles for blood A and o are unique, they can be inherited independently. This is true of all alleles. We know that trait alleles have at least two parts for simplified Mendalian genetics. That allows some easy applications. We do not have to use A, B, or o to represent any trait. We can use Aa, Bb, Cc, etc. because uppercase represents dominant and lower case represents recessive. Some prefer to use a letter as an allele which represents the idea for example, T for tall, t for small, etc… All these ideas form together to show the principle law of segregation from Gregor Mendel, that all traits an offspring has comes directly from their parents. Also we show the principle law of independence that; traits can exist as separate from other traits and be passed down to offspring. That being said, offspring get the genetic information from their parents and the parents pass part of the DNA to offspring separate from the whole DNA. A parent passed on part of the DNA through creating sex cells which have half the DNA required for a life. The sex cell is a gamete and comes as either a sperm or an ovum. The process of creating a sex cell is meiosis. When a sex cell is created in meiosis, the parent’s whole cell more or less divides in two cleaving a sex cell with half of the alleles from the parent. Therefore, if only one trait were to be examined (img.Gamete Selection 1) the result in the haploid daughter cells, would be in each of the two sex cells there would be half of the parent DNA; in this case review a parent with Aa (heterozygous) in img.Gamete Selection 1. The parent has a two part sequence which codes for a trait. The trait will express according to the patterns and to the effectiveness of the gene to express itself over others and the frequency with which that gene is expressed and the relationship of the affect and ecology of the individual. A trait does not simply show up, usually. There are many things which contribute to the expression. A person is put together, genetically like a complex machine. In this example we see nuts and bolts which need both parts to be useful (img.Gamete Selection 1). That is, a parent has two parts in connection that are useful but they can only pass one to the offspring meaning half. The other half will come from the other parent. When a sex cell is made there are many complex steps which have been covered already in Cells and DNA section you may also recall the added complexity of crossing-over and mixing of the DNA resulting in many unique sex cells from a single person. Therefore, there are many possibilities for the offspring from a parent because the system assures diversity. In the following drawings the process and result is simplified, in order to be direct and correct about the process of half the genes, passed onto offspring, by way of meiosis, and intercourse. The outcome is potentially limitless and diversity is assured by the process of life and procreation. img.Gamete Selection 1 Given: The parent cell has two parts. One is an A representing a dominant trait. There other is “a” which is a recessive one. The parent cell Aa is (heterozygous) meaning different. img.Gamete Selection 2 Given: The parent cell has two parts. One is a B representing a dominant trait. There other is “b” which is a recessive one. The parent cell Bb is (heterozygous) meaning different. img.Gamete Selection 3 Given: Parent 1starts with a cell which has two more parts. The cell from p1 parent cell Aa is (heterozygous) meaning different. P1(parent 1) has an A representing a dominant trait. There other is “a” which is a recessive one. P1 starts with a cell which has two more parts. The cell from p2 parent cell Bb is (heterozygous) meaning different.The parent cell Bb is (heterozygous) meaning different. P1 has a B representing a dominant trait. There other is “b” which is a recessive one. One is a B representing a dominant trait. There other is “b” which is a recessive one. Noted in the below gamete P1 is far more complex than for 1 trait. Gamete selection is from one parent. In that, a parent only has the One set of DNA. That DNA is divided into two parts or chromatids. Each chromatid has information but can carry different codes for the same thing such as for blood, or height etc. However, traits are simply controlled by one genetic pairing and there are many more genes. The information for genes is coded in 20,000-25,000 genes which work with others genes creating nearly limitless possibilities. Tracking these traits is complex See below if we change from 2 sets of two part traits (refer to img.Gamete Selection 3) to 3 sets of two part traits (refer to img.Gamete Selection 4). Then imagine what 25,000 genes may look like. img.Gamete Selection 4 Answer the following questions. Use the above document only to answer the questions. You can type in the answers if you have made a copy and renamed this document as your own. 1.

Week 2: Measurement One of the keystone concepts in modern quality improvement science is that of measurement. An often heard management adage is “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” Measurement can come in many different forms, including statistics, charts, and patient satisfaction surveys. This week we begin to explore measurement in health care quality improvement, and we will be introduced to various tools used for measurement. Learning Objectives Students will: Analyze an example of quality that was measured, assessed, and improved Apply simple data collection techniques to a measurement problem Design a data collection mechanism for an aspect of quality Interpret a control chart Synthesize the purpose, methods, and findings from the evidence-based literature that relate to a practice problem Photo Credit: [Anthia Cumming]/[E+]/Getty Images Learning Resources Required Readings Spath, P.

Retrieved from http://www(dot)med(dot)unc(dot)edu/cce/files/education-training/The%20run%20chart%20a%20simple%20analytical%20tool.pdf Discussion: Applying Measurement Tools One example of a measurement tool is the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) comprehensive care measures. Review the eight components of HEDIS comprehensive diabetes care; then consider the following scenario. You are a staff nurse working in a private primary care practice. It is a small practice with 2 MDs (internists), 2 nurses, 1 medical assistant, and an office staff for billing. There are approximately 1,000 patients in the practice. You have had no EHR until the last year, but all charts are manual, historically. Your physicians are starting to inquire about quality incentives, particularly regarding patients with diabetes. By Day 3 Take on the role of the staff nurse in the scenario, and post an explanation of how you would go about finding out how many diabetics are in your practice and how many meet all 8 components of HEDIS comprehensive diabetes care. Support your response with references from the professional nursing literature. Your posts need to be written at the capstone level (see checklist). Notes Initial Post: This should be a 3-paragraph (at least 350 words) response. Be sure to use evidence from the readings and include in-text citations. Utilize essay-level writing practice and skills, including the use of transitional material and organizational frames. Avoid quotes; paraphrase to incorporate evidence into your own writing. A reference list is required. Use the most current evidence (usually ≤ 5 years old). (Refer to AWE Checklist, Capstone) By Day 7 Read two or more of your colleagues’ postings from the Discussion question. Respond to two or more of your colleagues’ postings with a critique of their data mechanisms. Explain whether the data mechanism is practical, how long it might take, any alternatives you might suggest, and/or any electronic data collection possibilities that might apply. Post a Discussion entry on three different days of the week. See the Discussion Rubric found in the Course Information area.

Discussion – Week 1 (preferred related to Psychiatric care since I work as a Psych Nurse) COLLAPSE Defining Quality As health care consumers, we all expect quality care and positive outcomes. It is important as professionals that we meet these demands of health care consumers. Consider the work of the major theorists you examined in this week’s Resources, and think about how these theories apply to your own experience as a health care customer and/or practitioner. By Day 3 Post your definition of quality, and apply it to the work of one major quality theorist (e.g., Donabedian, Juran, Deming, Triple Aim (IHI) – Berwick). Identify a practice problem that you have had some experience with as a customer or as a practitioner, and explain how eliminating wasteful practices could have improved the experience. Include how your definition of quality applies to that experience. Support your response with references from the professional nursing literature. Your posts need to be written at the capstone level (see checklist). Notes for Initial Post: A 3-paragraph (at least 350 words) response.
