Module 10 Course Project – PowerPoint Presentation Due

Module 10 Content

  1. Follow instructions below and attached rubric closely- I am excited to see your final presentation!

    Course Competencies:

    • Incorporate professional values, attitudes, and expectations regarding ageism when caring for the older adult.
    • Outline the importance of advocating for older adults in management of their care.
    • Your supervisor provided some valuable feedback in response to your outline! They are excited to see the PowerPoint slideshow you are creating for your topic’s in-service training. Having developed a number of presentations for in-services, your supervisor offered the following advice:

      “When developing a slideshow, it’s important to be mindful of how you layout your content. For an in-service presentation, the slides should present key points, be arranged logically, without extraneous information contributing to a cluttered look. The audience should get a lot of the content from listening to what you say, not just from reading the slides. Using the Speaker Notes feature in PowerPoint is a great way to include relevant details that you want to provide without overloading the slides.”

      Your supervisor wants you to work from your outline and prepare a visually appealing PowerPoint slideshow for the in-service presentation. They said it should:

    1. Have a title slide.
    2. Contain 6-10 content slides pertaining to the important content areas for your presentation topic.
    3. Use the Speaker Notes feature in PowerPoint to reduce the amount of text that appears on the slides. (The Speaker Notes will contain the text that will guide what you say while presenting the slides.)
    4. Be written using proper spelling/grammar.
    5. Cite at least 2 credible references and present the sources in APA format on a References slide.
    6. For information about creating PowerPoint presentations or adding Speaker Notes, consult the resources below.

Ethical Considerations

Ethical Considerations

discuss:

The key ethical considerations in strategic planning include stakeholder participation, organizational values, individual values and managing change. When undertaking the process of strategy development. It is very important to consider the most effective way of developing the plan. This often results in the process consisting of a strategic planning committee normally led by the CEO of the organization. Which is given the mandate of developing a plan and submitting it to the Board for review and approval.

Evidence suggests that any significant change in strategy has a corresponding change in the structure of the organization in order too effective and deliver upon that strategy (George, 2019). As such, it is crucial for an organization to choose the right strategy for that particular point in time. Stakeholder involvement is one of the key strategies that is normally utilized in my organization. This allows differing perspectives and enhances support. Involving stakeholders improve the chance that the organization’s strategy is developed with the information necessary to make decisions.

Neuropsychology

/in /by

Neuropsychology, by definition, is the study of the relationship between the human brain and human behavior (Jackson & Milberg, 2018). There are many different theories about the relationship between biological, psychological, cognitive, emotional, social, cultural and interpersonal factors influential in psychopathology.

Psychopathological development is a process that is formed over the human lifespan.  There are many influential pieces of psychopathology—personal experiences across the lifespan influence this developmental process. For example, parents, friends, school relationships, sexual partners are significantly influential in development. (Butcher & Kendall, 2018).  Parents play a significant role in the influence of development of their children.  This is related to genetic factors, the ability to control children’s exposures and direct interactions with their environment, and choices about environment.  These key influential factors will influence a child development across their lifespan.  (Barker & Ramchandani, 2017).

Biological factors that affect the development of psychopathology

Biological factors that affect the development of psychopathology are factors with a physical cause. Physical causes include anything that physically plays a role in psychopathology development.  A few examples of these include neuroanatomy, genetics, prenatal exposure, and exposure to toxins.

Psychological, interpersonal, and emotional factors are related to behavioral, cognitive, and emotional development.  Most psychological factors develop and change throughout a person’s life.  Different life experiences within a person’s environment include a broad range between having all emotional needs met vs being a victim of abuse.

Social and cultural advantages/disparities also are key players in the development of psychopathology. Having access to proper education, health care, safety, and secure surroundings helps solidify development of psychopathology. While not having adequate access to educational opportunities, health care, or a safe environment will affect the plasticity of the developing brain, resulting in changed behavior. Having protective factors in place reassures the human brain and result in the development of psychopathology.

Being subjected to positive outside opportunities in many forms assists the development systems, resulting in brain development, positive social behavior, and cultural beliefs. The framework of psychopathology has many implications concerning different origins, assessment processes, levels of classifications, methods of prevention and treatment. (Butcher & Kendall, 2018).  Assessing a patient in an evaluation is a crucial diagnostic tool to unlocking the influencing factors of a patient’s developmental process.
