Framing in the Media

Framing in the media is simply the relationship between the media journalists and their audiences by deciding what the media is going to say to the public where they use it as an "agenda setting" which is a conventional way to approach framing. It is deemed as obscure and an opinionated procedure that can be inconsistent and viable that is dependent on (a) participating accesses on strategic schemas, (b) the capacity to manipulate sets of exploitations, (c) arrangement and outlook of the solutions of lawmakers, (d) inclinations of inner factions and policy makers ("Policy analysis and," 2007). In addition, framing has its own specific preferences in the way the media develops news that the public can understand where the spectators detain the quintessence of a concern or problem. Furthermore, there is a thorough procedure by supplying how these issues the media should…...

Diabetic Teaching Plan
Teaching Plan

Teaching plan: Patients with diabetes

Although all patients with type I diabetes manifest the same basic biology in terms of the manifestation of the illness, patients of different ages and genders will have different emotional, social, and environmental needs. This can be seen in a comparison of two patients, 'Sarah' and 'David.'

Patient 1: 'Sarah'

Sarah is a ten-year-old Caucasian daughter of a single mother. Sarah has been recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Engaging in dietary modification has been a challenge for Sarah. Sarah has expressed frustration with the fact she cannot eat 'just the same' as her friends and this has been a source of friction between herself and her mother, who says she frequently feels overwhelmed with the demands of managing Sarah's condition.

Developmental learning needs

Sarah must need to understand how to manage her illness. The nurse must communicate this in an age-appropriate fashion. The first step of…...

Diabetes Type 1: A Case Study and Teaching Plan
Patients need sometimes to be educated in their disease, especially if their disease is chronic and progressive. When patients lack basic knowledge on their disease, further complications may arise due to improper self-care and bad lifestyle choices. Nursing theories such as the oy Adaptation Model, allow for better understanding of the specific needs of the patient and how to carry that out into an effective teaching plan. Case studies also help in determining proper treatment for specific situations.

A 16-year-old female with a history of type 1 diabetes was brought to the emergency section of her local hospital by her mother. Her name is Elsa. Her mother witnesses an episode of syncope. The symptoms present in the patient were flu-like accompanied by a productive cough that lasted 6 days prior to her arrival to the hospital. Furthermore, patient has been drinking and eating…...

Plan for the Trosack's Family

As the nursing case manager for maternal parent 43-year-old ita and the 46-year-old paternal parent Patrick Trosack, I have been appointed to advise these parents about the results of their Chorionic villus samping (CVS) administered through Dr. Zimmerly Gynecology & Associates on 7 July 2008 signified that the Trosack fetus was positive for Tay-Sachs disease, counseling of genetic birth defects. A more in depth evaluation of both the mother and father at the Genetic Counseling Medical Center should be discussed for the parents to find out more about their background, genetic make-up, and the risks of passing the disease to their children. Further diagnosis is an optional service we can provide and requires test results from both the mother and father in order to provide detailed results. Our team recommends the family immediately request to complete a physical evaluations, background questionnaire…...

Lesson Plan for Professional Development
Teaching Plan/Objective: Service Learning Plan for Elder Services (Professional Development Module)

Elders as Resources programs address a number of the social, psychological and cognitive needs of students in five major areas of development:

Realistic Portrayal of Adults- Students understand that older adults have as varied a background as they do -- different personalities, ethnic heritage, culture, etc. By providing direct experience with older adults, stereotypes are avoided that overly glamorize or denigrate old age.

Development of a positive attitude towards aging- Students understand that humans age and realize that some decisions made in youth carry over into adulthood. Direct experience with older adults in controlled settings are more effective in helping to change attitudes than rote learning or discussions without relative examples.

Understanding of life-decisions -- Stories from elders help students understand that at each point in life different decisions are made that impact the course of their life --…...

This degree of media coverage, in fact, would likely provide a worthwhile goal for all responsible journalism; to this end, operational framing would provide a comprehensive and balanced analysis of the event without resorting to rhetoric or base appeals to emotion (Peterson, 2001). Therefore, throughout this exercise, this term will refer to completely objective news reporting that is absent of any discernible contextual framing efforts as defined above on the part of the reviewer.

My teaching plan for Mr. M would begin with a simple introduction of myself and the purpose of the lesson that I would be teaching him that day. I would use a printed out sheet with pictures rather than many words that help to explain the process for each of his four medications; these highly-visual and easy to follow sheets can be used to explain his medications, how to take them, when to take them, how much to take, and when he should call for help. As Cowan (2004) points out, it is important for patients who have low literacy to still have a way to understand their medication processes in clear and certain terms.

Teaching Plan: eflection and Evaluation
Summary of teaching plan

The topic of the presentation and instruction is heatstroke and other heat related causes of death. The teaching presentation was provided to staff at a Parks and ecreation department in the community, and plans are being made to conduct the teaching presentation at church communities in preparation for their vacation Bible school activities, at adult / child care centers that often plan outings for their program participants, and at health centers at Universities who are in a position to encounter university students who are suffering from a heat-related threats to their health.

The heat wave that occurred in western Europe in the summer of 2003 is a case study in the relation of social structure and cultural practices and the impact of a natural disaster on public health (Kopp, et al., 2015). Heat waves are more lethal to the poor who do not…...

Teaching
What are three rewards and three challenges that you will face as a teacher?

As a rabid student of popular culture, I have been interested in the so-called "achievement gap" in education, popularized in the media, the political spectrum, and even within contemporary business culture. There is clearly a demonstrable gap in educational relevancy; second, there are basic skills that are absolutely vital in order to participate in the modern global village that are not universal with the U.. educational environment. cholarship also points out that the earlier the attention to this "gap," the earlier the attention to potential reading disabilities, and the earlier the intervention towards socialization issues, the higher rate of success and inclusion. This, too, engenders challenges within the profession. For instance, today's classrooms are more diverse than ever, they are multi-dimensional as well. To help fill the gap, teachers need to be able to jump into different…...

As I began to realize that I was expecting less than they were capable of I realized that some of my preconceived notions about the teaching profession were coloring my viewpoint.

One example was the day a preschool student from the regular education class came to me and handed me a book that she wanted to read to me. I was surprised but let her open the book and begin reading. It reminded me not to assume the level of ability of any student as each student is an individual and develops at individual rates.

In observing the classrooms I found that problems can be dealt with by remaining flexible and keeping an open mind (Safer, 2003).

An example of this philosophy occurred when an autistic preschool student was included in the inclusion setting. "Tommy" did not respond to verbal cues nor was he a verbal child. The teacher made up several index…...

Teaching Strategy for Special Ed
Special Education Standard

Direct instruction is the most widely-used teaching strategy, although it has become controversial in recent years. Critics argue that it limits the creativity of good teachers and provides a crutch for poor ones (What is direct instruction? 2011). It is a teacher-centered approach that relies on structured lesson plans, offering little or no variation and no opportunity for discussion or active participation. The effectiveness of direct instruction has been demonstrated widely but it can be a poor choice for students with disabilities who would benefit from another approach.

What is Direct Instruction?

"Direct instruction is a theory of education which posits that the most effective way to teach is by explicit, guided instructions" (What is direct instruction? 2011). Although it is the oldest form of instruction, it gained attention in the 1980s when implemented in the schools of inner-city Baltimore. Instruction was scripted, with prepared lesson…...

Teaching Special Education Students
In the classroom, teachers are primarily responsible for ensuring that special education students are provided with equal opportunities for education. While instructors should not lower academic standards in the classroom, they should make every effort to make reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities. y making simple adjustments, such as allowing students to record lectures or changing the format of a test, teachers can make sure that special education students do not have academic or social disadvantages.

Setting up the Classroom

In the classroom, simple changes can make a great difference for special education students. For example, by arranging desks in a manner where each student has his own personal space, as opposed to sitting in groups, special education students have less chances of being distracted.

There should be various centers in the class that provide a space for students to go when they are finished with their individual work. This…...

Teaching Diversity in the Classroom
In recent decades it has become increasingly important that educators understand the importance of multicultural education. Given that society has become more pluralistic and diverse, there is a need for a curriculum that focuses on diversity. This research proposal recognizes that diversity can and should be taught, and proposes a methodology for doing so.

This project reviews the literature on teaching diversity. Achieving diversity in higher education involves a wide range of approaches. Teaching diversity includes the need to recruit and maintain a diverse student body, as well as faculty, and to provide instruction to a diverse group of students, provide an inclusive curriculum that reflects the contributions of non-Western and minority groups, and to teach so as to critically examine the humanities and the professions from perspectives of groups that have been marginalized.

Teaching Disaster and Emergency Management
The whole world has turned into a place where people encounter experiences with diverse forms of disaster. Most of the disasters are usually extremely complicated and strike unexpectedly in any region causing massive damages and loss of lives. The complexities accompanying the catastrophes require the existence of well-trained personnel oftentimes ready to deal with disasters as they occur before causing irreparable harm to people and property. In some regions, many people have lost lives and properties destroyed because of the slow response by the people dependable for handling the emergencies. This calls for the training of new and many people who provide quick and efficient response to the disasters whilst saving lives. Various regions and countries have taken up the initiative of training people expected to play a critical role in the management of disasters.
