  • Annotated Bibliography for Literature Review on Systemic and Culturally Sensitive Approaches to Mental Health Care

    For this assignment, you will submit an annotated bibliography on all the resources you have compiled. Please note that the same citation rules applied to other documents (such as proper paraphrasing and quotation marks where necessary) also apply to annotated bibliographies. Cutting and pasting from the abstract or the body of an article is unacceptable. Each annotation should include the following: An APA formatted reference
    A summary of the purpose, methods, and findings of the article. Make sure that you are differentiating between information presented as background/introduction to the article and the actual findings from the article.
    A critique of the article
    Critique methodology
    Describe ways the focus is or is not systemic and culturally sensitive
    Discuss briefly how the article relates to attached topic(table doc) and a specific section of your literature review. For example, specify if the article will assist you with your theoretical framework or a specific concept within your topic. Each annotation should be single-spaced and kept as brief as possible. Your professor will spot-check several of your annotations for accuracy and comprehensiveness. Overall Feedback
    Overall, you did well with completing the table for this week, and I now have a better sense of some aspects of your topic. One thing you want to start working on, and this is an important process of your literature review work, is starting to synthesize these findings. For example, instead of listing a separate reference for each “What we know” and “What we don’t know” section, consider where there might be some overlap. Did any of these studies find similar things? Did any of them identify similar gaps? Can you find ways to connect some of these findings and/or gaps across different studies? An important component of a successful literature review is making sure that it doesn’t turn into just an annotated bibliography (ie, where each paragraph is just a discussion of a separate article), but instead you are finding ways to connect (synthesize) the different research findings and also be able to critique some of them (whether it comes to their findings, their methods, or something else). You will get to work on these specific components as you continue in the course, but this is important to start thinking about now! The ASC (and the dissertation center) has some specific resources and tools to help with the literature review and synthesis/analysis, so I strongly encourage you to get familiar with those. https://resources.nu.edu/researchtools/researchsupport
    https://resources.nu.edu/c.php?g=1007176&p=7296562
    Also, pay attention to your references page. You had a few places where you missed important information.
    The dissertations you located are not properly cited in APA 7 (you should be using brackets instead of parentheses, and also you need to indicate which database you retrieved the dissertation from as well as a URL, if applicable). https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/published-dissertation-references
    All of your peer-reviewed journal articles need to include their doi information at the end
    The book chapter (Sandage et al., 2019) needs to include the editor information (see the examples under “Chapter in an edited book” section): https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/edited-book-chapter-references
    Your references need to be “left aligned” (currently they are “justified” – this is an easy fix within MS Word). You can tell this is the case as each reference goes to the far right side of the paper, until hitting the right margin, and thus this usually creates extra spaces that should not be there (see the Rokach & Chan reference as a clear example of those extra spaces that should not be there).

  • Title: Introducing Compstat: A New Approach to Crime Prevention

    Module 01 Content
    Crime prevention methods of the past were reactive. This means that police simply responded to criminal incidents leaving citizens to wonder how future criminality would be prevented. In order to reduce the social anxiety caused by past crime prevention that did not offer methods for citizens to protect themselves, new strategies needed to be designed.
    Current methods require police to be proactive. In other words, they are identifying potential pockets of crime so that prevention methods can be implemented. It also means sharing that information with residents so they can take measures to avoid becoming a victim.
    As the police chief in your town, you want to introduce the new resource – Compstat – to your community. Write a 1 to 2-page description that could be used as a script for an informational video, about Compstat.
    HERE IS AN ARTICLE ABOUT COMPSTAT AND WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES

    The CompStat Process


    NOTE – Be sure that the descriptions are written in simple language and are easy to read out loud.
    In the script carefully include the following:
    Define the core principles of Compstat. The four distinct principles- accurate and timely intelligence, effective tactics, rapid deployment, and relentless follow-up and assessment. .
    For each principle you defined, explain one strategy that you consider most beneficial to crime prevention. Which principle do you consider most important to crime prevention?
    Discuss a challenge to using Compstat. One challenge is that the program is costly.
    Offer a resolution to the challenge of Compstat usage you identified.
    NOTE
    The articles from this module’s Reading Assignments will assist with this assignment.
    Be sure the paper displays proper grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure.

  • The Power of Film in Anthropology: Exploring Society and Culture Through the Lens Film has long been recognized as a powerful medium for storytelling, entertainment, and education. However, its significance in the field of anthropology goes beyond these traditional roles.

    We have spent the semester viewing a series of films from an anthropological perspective and
    discussing how films can be used in the study of culture. Your final writing assignment for this semester
    is to write a three to four-page paper in which you explain the importance of film for the field of
    anthropology.
    Why is film an important medium for anthropology? What are some of the ways in which anthropology
    can use film in the study of society and culture? In what ways is film a valuable resource for the study of
    society and culture?
    In addressing this topic refer to at least three of the films we have watched this semester in order to
    illustrate and re-enforce your ideas, and draw on at least three of the course readings you’ve done as
    well.
    Create a well-organized and carefully argued essay in which you state what you believe the important
    connections between film and the anthropological study of society and culture to be.
    Please follow the writing format instructions in the syllabus in the section on Students’ Written Work,
    and submit your paper through Blackboard as a word.doc or a pdf as you’ve done for the other
    assignments.
