Assessment Tool Presentation

Assessment Tool Presentation

I am doing my assessment tool presentation on, the Assessment of Functional Living Skills (AFLS), below is the requirements for the PowerPoint slide, I will be doing the video presentation portion once the slides are done, thank you so much! The PowerPoint needs to be 10 slides or less 

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate your knowledge of an assessment tool for individuals with ASD as well as to demonstrate your skills in communicating key information to others.

Deliverables

We are often called upon to share our knowledge and present professionally for colleagues, parents and/or families to break down academic language into applicable, targeted information. You will practice this skill by creating a presentation on one of the assessment tools that is used for individuals with ASD that you are interested in learning more about. A list of potential assessment tools can be found at the end of this assignment overview, but it is not an exhaustive list. The tool that you review should reflect something that interests you and might be useful in your current or future work. 

The presentation will be a brief video discussing slides that show a summary of the content you find out in your research on the assessment tool that you choose.

The presentation itself should be approximately 6-10 slides (NO MORE THAN A 5 MINUTE VIDEO!), so make sure you select the most important materials to present on your topic (see the scoring grid below for essential components). 

Activity Details

Step 1: Select an assessment tool and sign-up for that topic.

Step 2: Prepare your materials.

Prepare your materials paying careful attention to the requirements outlined in the Presentation Scoring Grid below. Make sure you limit the presentation to under 10 slides and present the material in a video less than 5 minutes long. You can create slides in any format you are comfortable with, such as PowerPoint, Prezi, etc., and can create your presentation in powerpoint, zoom, etc., but just be sure the media is technically possible for your classmates to view your slides and hear you speak. 

Slides: Your slides are a guide for you when you are creating your video. The slides should include the following information:

  1. Name of your assessment tool, and who created/validated it
  2. What the tool is designed to assess and why it is important (what can it tell you)
  3. The population with whom the tool is intended to be used
  4. The psychometric properties of your assessment tool (reliability and validity)
  5. Topics (and sub-topics) covered in the tool
  6. Scoring scheme and general interpretation of scoring (what constitutes a high or low score if there are cutoffs, etc.)
  7. Review and include at least 5 peer reviewed journal articles to support your claims about what we know about this tool in response to the above items
  8. Summarize what this literature tells you we should do in practice to use the tool or apply recommendations from this tool
  9. Summary of Resources/References

Case 2 Review Assignment

Case 2 Review Assignment

Activity Details: 

Step 1: Review the Case  

Step 2: Write a brief summary of the overall findings within the case. This summary should be no more than 1-2 pages maximum, and focus on the information from each assessment tool. The summary should include a brief summary of the clients strengths and weaknesses with evidence from each assessment tool used as support for these claims. A summary is provided at the end of each assessment tool within the report (be sure to find and read those!), but your summary should not copy those summaries, and instead integrate the different assessment results across tools for broader conclusions about the student’s strengths and weaknesses. 

Step 3: Write a list of THREE recommendations you would consider based on the assessment results that were provided on the case. Consider your own work or home setting. If this was your client or child, what stands out to you as the most important things for you to address from this report? Specify whether you would be suggesting these recommendations for the home or school setting. Prioritize the top three issues you would want to address, based on the assessment results. Consider the learning environment, curriculum, academic supports, language supports, social supports, and/or behavior interventions.

Use the results of the assessments related to those issues to make recommendations in those three areas for your setting. What do the results tell you about the possible accommodations or services needed in the home or educational setting? Recommendations do not need to be specific (e.g. the child should have a specific behavior intervention to address a specific goal), but can be more generic, such as “this client should get speech therapy supports because of language challenges in xxx,” or “This client may need social supports to help structure peer interactions because he showed difficulty in yyyy,” etc. The recommendations you make should address the issues you identified as priorities, as well as be appropriate for the setting you are discussing (home or school), and be able to work together (e.g. you do not want to recommend intensive therapy or interventions in multiple areas, because there is not enough time to do both. Consider all of the recommendations as a treatment package together and whether they are feasible in concert with one another). 

Step 4: Write a brief reflection (no more than one page) of your own interpretation of the report. 

  1. Do you feel it was comprehensive enough for you to understand the client’s strengths and weaknesses (why or why not)? 
  2. Do you agree with the conclusions that were drawn for each assessment tool? 
  3. Is there information or other assessments that you think should have been done to make home or educational planning decisions for this client? 
  4. Was the report clear? If not, where did you struggle to understand the results? 

Step 5: Save and submit your assignment.

When you have completed the assignment, save a copy for yourself in an easily accessible place and submit a copy to your instructor using the assignment link.

Select one type of white collar crime, explain what causes someone to engage in this kind of crime, and propose a solution for this type of crime.

Select one type of white collar crime, explain what causes someone to engage in this kind of crime, and propose a solution for this type of crime.

For your final paper, you will select one type of white collar crime, explain what causes someone to engage in this kind of crime, and propose a solution for this type of crime. Revise your second draft, include the new sections you’ve worked on since then (and revise those, too), and compile your final draft.

What is a White-collar crime?

A white collar crime simply refers to a nonviolent form of crime committed for financial gains. According to the FBI, characteristics of white collar crimes include deceit, concealment, or violation of trust. All white collar crimes are financially motivated with the sole aims as “to obtain or avoid losing money, property, or services or to secure a personal business advantage”(Investopedia)

What are some Examples of White Collar Crimes?

  1. Corporate fraud: This includes falsification of financial information, self-dealing, detection and deterrence.
  2. Money Laundering
  3. Securities and commodities fraud
  4. Investment fraud: Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes, prime bank investment fraud/trading program fraud.

View more examples of White collar crimes at https://www.fbi.gov/investigate/white-collar-crime

Note that this final draft is due FRIDAY, October 15, 2021.

I very strongly encourage you to write the full paper as soon as you can and to submit it to the Online Writing Center for feedback. You will need to give them a few days to read your paper and provide you feedback. Then you’ll need at least a day or two to adequately incorporate their feedback and improve your paper. (But remember that their feedback are suggestions. You are the author of your own work. You decide what needs to be changed, after very seriously considering their feedback.)

To submit your paper: To submit your paper: Select the Help menu in the column on the very far left (the question mark in a circle). Scroll down to the Writing Assistance link. Under the Get Online Writing Help, click  That link will take you to the submission form.

Your final paper will need the following sections:

  1. Introduction
  2. Background/Literature Review of this Type of White-Collar Crime:
    • Define the type of crime you seek to solve. Discuss the magnitude of the problem, why this is a problem that needs to be solved, who is affected by this problem, how it affects the larger society, and so on. You can use evidence from peer-reviewed journals in this section, but you could also use reports from government agencies or think tanks. Just do some background research on the organizational reports you cite – make sure you know where their biases are, because it will affect how they report and interpret the numbers.
  3. Case Study Illustrating this Type of White-Collar Crime:
    • Find an actual case of this kind of crime. The case could have been reported in the news or you could find it in LexisNexis. Describe the case.
  4. Existing Policies or Programs Seeking to Solve this Kind of Crime:
    • Describe existing policies or programs trying to solve this kind of crime. No policy or program is perfect and many policies have been proposed to solve the same problem, probably. If you can find no existing policies or programs, select a policy or program designed to prevent a similar kind of crime. In this section, you will discuss other ways to solve your problem (that is, other policies) and what is wrong with those ways of solving the problem. (that is, critique those solutions) This section will lead to your theory, so you should point out what is missing from these existing policies based on what your theory says the solution should be. See the theory section for more detail on that. This section will provide support for why your theory is the correct explanation to actually solve the problem, while other policies use an unhelpful theory and, therefore, won’t solve the problem. You should have lots of evidence from peer-reviewed journals in this section.
  5. Theoretical Explanations for this Type of White Collar Crime:
    • This is an important part of the paper, even though theories are not well developed in white-collar crime research. What causes this kind of crime? Pick a theory and explain how this theory sees the world. This section is meant to demonstrate you understand the theory well enough to apply it to solve a problem. So, if theory X says Y problem is caused by Z, your policy will be to end Z to solve Y problem. You should have lots of evidence to support your argument that this theory is the best explanation for your problem. For example, say you want to use strain theory. Strain theory says we engage in criminal behavior when our opportunities to be successful are blocked. So, let’s say your crime type is embezzling. You’d say embezzlers are motivated to succeed but can’t achieve the level they want without illegal means. (Therefore, when you get to your solution, you will say we need a policy that ensures corporate types can achieve the level they want through legal means – or that we need to change the cultural value of success at any price – or something like that. This theory WOULD NOT suggest that the solution is more punishment. Make sense?)
  6. Solution/Recommendation for Solving this Kind of Crime:
    • Your paper is leading up to this point. What are you recommending? Should we keep an existing policy/program, update or revise the policy/program, end a policy, or introduce a new policy entirely? Be clear and succinct here. If you’ve given us adequate background on what the problem is, what causes the problem, and why alternatives are not satisfactory, your recommendation should be obvious. Remember, your solution needs to be in line with your theory. Your theory gives you the WHY. Your recommendation is the WHAT.
  7. Conclusion
  8. References, formatted in APA style
    • Format your in-text citations and bibliography in APA style.
    • You will need a minimum of 14 sources for this paper. At least 8 of these sources must be peer-reviewed journal articles. The remaining 6 required sources must be high-quality academic sources. Your textbook can be one of these sources. You may use newspaper articles or encyclopedias, but these sources will not count towards the required 14 sources.

Paper Requirements

Your final paper will be 12-25 pages long, double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font.

Include headings so the reader knows what to expect in each section.

Include a minimum of 14 sources (at least 8 of which are peer-reviewed journal articles)

Content:ï‚· Be sure that you have a historical or cultural focus and explore the relationship between your topic and sexism. ï‚· Keep your focus narrow. This is only a 3-4 page essay. The broader the topic, the more difficult to keep your essay focused.ï‚· Your essay must provide an analysis of your topic as it relates to gender. Do not simply write about historical female figures. Your essay should not be a biography; it needs to be an analysis. ï‚· Meaning, if you chose to discuss the Salem witch trials, rather than focusing on different women who were persecuted during the trials, you need to discuss the connection between gender and those assumed to be witches. Essentially, your essay needs to show how your topic is connected to sexism. Structure:ï‚· This essay will function as a literature review. Literature reviews use secondary sources, and do not report new or original experimental work. Meaning you are to use the research to make an argument, rather than stating your own opinion. You may “analyze” research by using other research to either support, or refute arguments. ï‚· Refer to at least two course readings in your essay. A total of 5 scholarly sources are required.
