OP Ed Assignment
Consider this final assignment to be a culminating activity that will draw on your knowledge of and connection to assigned readings, class dialogue, and personal reflections on early childhood education and care policy. You are expected to include references to and quotes from course readings as well as at least three (3) outside references to current literature/research.
This is an opportunity for you to write on an early learning and child care policy issue that you are passionate about, but in a manner that educates and informs the reader, for the purpose of advocacy. You may choose to delve deeper into the policy issues you addressed in your “If I were the Minister of Education…” introduction post. The purpose of an op ed is to garner support and change opinions within a very short paper. Therefore, it is imperative that the prose must be succinct, authoritative, and use professional (but not overly academic) language that conveys expertise in the area.
What is an Op Ed?
An op-ed (originally short for “opposite the editorial page” although often taken to stand for “opinion editorial”) is a written prose piece typically published by a newspaper or magazine which expresses the opinion of a named author, usually not affiliated with the publication’s editorial board.
Good Op-Ed examples:
Merenda, Elena. “Modernized sex-ed empowers kids to have control over their bodies.” Globe and Mail. 23 August 2018.
Couto, Joe. “Between two worlds: gay cops and Pride.” The Star. 24 June 2018.
Vaccarino, Franco. “Legal Cannabis is Coming. Let’s Make Sure We’re Educated About the Risks.” Globe and Mail. 14 March 2018.
Format and Submission
Your paper should be 800 words, double-spaced (Times New Roman, 12 pt. font) and include a title page and a references page. Any sources referenced should be in APA style. Third person perspective is required for an authoritative voice.
Submit your paper to the Dropbox folder: Op Ed Assignment. You can access the folder through the Dropbox link located in the top navigation bar.

identify and evaluate the political health care issue facing healthcare administrators. In a 1-page summary, you will identify political issues in the scenario below and discuss how you would effectively and ethically handle the situation. Include two (2) academic references and submit your assignment in APA format.
Scenario: You are the healthcare administrator of a nursing home. You are informed by your Admissions Director that a new memory-impaired resident has been admitted into your long-term care unit. The staff is concerned about the involvement of family with your resident. Family members from out-of-town arrived and expressed concern about your resident’s do not resuscitate (DNR) orders which were authorized by the Power of Attorney of another family member. A quarrel erupts in the nursing home with family members voicing their opinions loudly. You arrive on the scene and are immediately told by the visiting family member, “Do you know who I am? I am a supervisor for the Department of Health and Human Services and will not hesitate to have your facility surveyed for noncompliance.” What do you do?
Requirements:
Identify political issues in the scenario.
Discuss how you would effectively and ethically handle the situation.
Include two (2) academic references.

THIS IS FOR APPLIED BEHAVIOURAL ANALYSIS
1) Choose an intervention from the Effective or Emerging Effectiveness category of the
National Standards Report (Phase 1 or Phase 2 or Parent Guide). Find an article that
researches/applies this intervention in a peer-reviewed journal accessed through the NSCC
Library Database.
2) Summarize the method and results of the article.
3) Evaluate the research article for the following dimensions of ABA (see rubric for detailed
breakdown):
o Applied
o Behavioural
o Analytic
o Technological
o Effective
o Conceptually Systematic
o Generality
The article must come from a peer-reviewed, published journal. The assignment should be
between 2-3 pages, using 12 pt. font and double spacing and using 1-inch margins on all sides.
You can discuss the dimensions of ABA in any order that makes sense for your summary but do
not assume I know which dimension you are describing – specifically state it. Alternatively, you
can create a heading for each dimension/section and write your summary below (whatever
helps you organize your summary and evaluate all 7 dimensions). This should be written in the
format of a paper – not question and answer
