Persuasive Communication and Intercultural Rhetoric: Examples and Analysis Intercultural Rhetoric: Strategies for Effective Introductions and Conclusions
The three body paragraphs (a minimum of 5–7 sentences each) should describe and analyze each example. You will also connect the example to Linda Flower’s concept of intercultural rhetoric in the Unit 2 Reading.
In each body paragraph, you will do the following:
Describe
As you describe each example, think in terms of audience, setting, and purpose. For example, does your professional example take place among your fellow managers (audience) at an IT company (setting)? Is one of the managers arguing for a shift to a four-day work schedule (purpose)? As you explain the persuasive messages, include details that explain what information was exchanged in these communications. Consider using dialogue and description to develop them further.
Analyze
In the analysis portion of your paragraphs, you will provide two reasons why each example was effective. Consider techniques such as tone, word choice, evidence, and examples as you analyze. For instance, did the speaker provide concrete examples of companies successfully implementing a four-day work schedule?
Connect
Finally, connect each example to the Unit 2 readings by explaining how the example demonstrates one concept from Linda Flower’s intercultural rhetoric, such as rival hypotheses, the story-behind-the-story, or options and outcomes. For example, did the manager consider a rival hypothesis, such as the cost of moving to a four-day workweek?
Along with three body paragraphs, open with a brief introductory paragraph (2–4 sentences) to introduce the main point of your reflection. In your final paragraph, conclude your reflection with a brief summary (2–4 sentences) of your points.
Follow APA formatting guidelines for the document. Body paragraphs should use the PIE method — “point, illustrate, explain” — and should be well-developed, cohesive, and edited for clarity and correctness. Include an APA references list.
Submit your reflection to the Unit 2 Dropbox in a Microsoft Word document or a PDF.

In MLA format, write a one-thousand-word essay on the scenario below. Your essay should include at least one peer-reviewed scholarly article source written within the last five years. Your article can be about anything related to your chosen topic.

Imagine you are the Executive Director for a company that plans to create DEI trainings to raise awareness on the importance of workplace equality and diversity. Find two DEI topics that matter most to you. (EX: ethnic equality, equal access for people with disabilities, gender equality). Why is it important to train your employees to be more understanding about diversity? What would you call your trainings, and how could they be implemented at your company? What impact could changes in workforce sensitivity have on society in general?

Annotated Bibliography: Technology in Nursing for Enhanced Quality and Safety Standards “Enhancing Quality and Safety in Nursing through the Use of Technology: An Annotated Bibliography and Recommendation”
Write a 4–6 page annotated bibliography where you identify peer-reviewed publications that promote the use of a selected technology to enhance quality and safety standards in nursing.
Introduction
This assessment will give you the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of how technology can enhance quality and safety standards in nursing. You will prepare an annotated bibliography on technology in nursing. A well-prepared annotated bibliography is a comprehensive commentary on the content of scholarly publications and other sources of evidence about a selected nursing-related technology. A bibliography of this type provides a vehicle for workplace discussion to address gaps in nursing practice and to improve patient care outcomes. As nurses become more accountable in their practice, they are being called upon to expand their role of caregiver and advocate to include fostering research and scholarship to advance nursing practice. An annotated bibliography stimulates innovative thinking to find solutions and approaches to effectively and efficiently address these issues.
Professional Context
Rapid changes in information technology go hand-in-hand with progress in quality health care delivery, nursing practice, and interdisciplinary team collaboration. Technology is essential to the advancement of the nursing profession, maintaining quality care outcomes, patient safety, and research.
Preparation
Before you begin to develop the assessment, you are encouraged to complete the Annotated Bibliography Formative Assessment. Completing this activity will help you succeed with the assessment and counts towards course engagement.
To successfully complete this assessment, perform the following preparatory activities:
Review the technologies presented in the Assessment 03 Supplement: Evidence-Based Proposal and Annotated Bib on Tech in Nursing [PDF] Download Assessment 03 Supplement: Evidence-Based Proposal and Annotated Bib on Tech in Nursing [PDF]resource and select one of the options to use as the focus for this assessment.
Direct patient care technologies require an interaction, or direct contact, between the nurse and patient. Nurses use direct patient care technologies every day when delivering care to patients. Electronic thermometers or pulse oximeters are examples of direct patient care technologies.
Indirect patient care technologies, on the other hand, are those employed on behalf of the patient. They do not require interaction, or direct contact, between the nurse and patient. A handheld device for patient documentation is an example of an indirect patient care technology.
Conduct a library search using the various electronic databases available through the Capella University Library.
Consult the BSN Program Library Research Guide for help in identifying scholarly and/or authoritative sources.
Access the NHS Learner Success Lab, linked in the courseroom navigation menu, for additional resources.
Scan the search results related to your chosen technology.
Select four peer-reviewed publications focused on your selected topic that are the most interesting to you.
Evaluate the impact of patient care technologies on desired outcomes.
Analyze current evidence on the impact of a selected patient care technology on patient safety, quality of care, and the interdisciplinary team.
Integrate current evidence about the impact of a selected patient care technology on patient safety, quality of care, and the interdisciplinary team into a recommendation.
Notes
Publications may be research studies or review articles from a professional source. Newspapers, magazines, and blogs are not considered professional sources.
Your selections need to be current—within the last five years.
Instructions
First, review the technologies presented in the Assessment 03 Supplement: Evidence-Based Proposal and Annotated Bib on Tech in Nursing [PDF] Download Assessment 03 Supplement: Evidence-Based Proposal and Annotated Bib on Tech in Nursing [PDF]resource and select one of the options to use as the focus for this assessment.
Next prepare a 4–6 page paper in which you introduce your selected technology and describe at least four peer-reviewed publications that promote the use of your selected technology to enhance quality and safety standards in nursing. You will conclude your paper by summarizing why you recommend a particular technology by underscoring the evidence-based resources you presented. Be sure that your paper includes all of the following elements:
Introduction to the Selected Technology Topic
What is your rationale for selecting this particular technology topic? What is interesting about it?
What research process did you employ?
Which databases did you use?
Which search terms did you use?
Note: In this section of your bibliography, you may use first-person since you are asked to describe your rationale for selecting the topic and the research strategies you employed. Use third person in the rest of the bibliography, however.
Annotation Elements
For each resource, include the full reference followed by the annotation.
Explain the focus of the research or review article you chose.
Provide a summary overview of the publication.
According to this source, what is the impact of this technology on patient safety and quality of care?
According to this source, what is the relevance of this technology to nursing practice and the work of the interdisciplinary health care team?
Why did you select this publication to write about out of the many possible options? In other words, make the case as to why this resource is important for health care practitioners to read.
Summary of Recommendation
How would you tie together the key learnings from each of the four publications you examined?
What organizational factors influence the selection of a technology in a health care setting? Consider such factors as organizational policies, resources, culture/social norms, commitment, training programs, and/or employee empowerment.
How would you justify the implementation and use of the technology in a health care setting? This is the section where you will justify (prove) that the implementation of the
patient care technology is appropriate or not. The evidence should be cited from the literature that was noted in the annotated bibliography.
Consider the impact of the technology on the health care organization, patientcare/satisfaction, and interdisciplinary team productivity, satisfaction, and retention.
