State capitalism is an economic model which competes with the free-market model in which “the state functions as the leading economic actor and uses markets primarily for political gain” (Bremmer, 2009). China is the most often cited practitioner of state capitalism. In this assignment, you are asked to write an essay on how the Chinese financial system reflects China’s model of state capitalism. More specifically, you should at least cover the following elements: (1) a literature review on features of state capitalism in general, (2) some important features of the Chinese financial system (including the banking sector, the bond market, and the stock market), and (3) Why are these features the reflections of China’s model of state capitalism.
To help you start from somewhere, I have uploaded two relevant papers on the E-Board (under section week 6): (1) Bremmer, Ian (2009) State capitalism comes of age: the end of the free market? Foreign Affairs (May/June 2009), 1-11. (2) The Economist (2012) The visible hand, special report on state capitalism, January 21st 2012. You will obtain some ideas about which direction you need to go in order to further explore this topic.
The essay is expected to be about 3000 words. The essay will account for 30% of the total grade of the course.
The deadline for submitting the essay is Monday 23 March, 2015.

Discharge Plan
Discharge Plan
For this assignment, the student is the case manager assigned to composing a discharge plan for a patient who does not want to consider any other plan than to return to their home. The student will select a hospitalized client and determine the patients discharge plan. The student will create a scenario where the family is in disagreement about future care plans for the patient. Focus is on two elements significantly influencing the process, the patient”s decisional capacity and the involvement of family members in decision-making. Discuss in terms of factors compromising the autonomy of the patient and the interdependency of family members. Examples for scenarios could include new onset CVA, with left-sided weakness, CHF with 4 admissions in the last 6 months, ESRD on dialysis, Status Post MVA with a TBI, metastasized pancreatic cancer, or another form of cancer. The student is to complete the discharge planning process from admission until discharge, completing the case management documentation. Complete an initial assessment at the time of admission, keeping in mind that discharge decisions are more easily reached and understood when the purpose and expected outcome for admission to treatment is agreed upon when a client is admitted for service
Instructions:
1. Identify any possible discharge needs at the time of admission. Is there anything that needs to be done at this time?
2.Determine the discharge level of care and destination. What was the basis for the decision? Why is it an appropriate level of care? Who was involved and what was their contribution?
3.How do you get the client to the discharge destination (transportation)? What is the follow-up?
4.Can include cognitive capacity, disagreement with the discharge between family members and healthcare team, conflicting ethical standards, refusal of services, spouse-partner unwillingness to have partner come home, unsafe living environments, and multiple failed discharge attempts.
5.Resolving issues by using Mattisons hierarchical ethical decision-making model may be helpful to research.

Good morning. This is Mary Arung again witting back for the same paper. Can you all change the writer of this paper because apparently, this writer doesn”t know what to do. I paid for an undergraduate paper with all instructions provided but to my greatest surprised, the paper is written below high school level and did not follow the instructions at all. This the third time and asking that they rewrite the paper and I do not want the same person writing this paper again. I asked for 8 pages of paper with references but the person gave me 4 pages with one reference and very poor English. I will attach the instructions again and please get someone else to write this paper for me. Thanks. I need the paper ASAP.

DIFFERENTIATED UNIT AND LESSON PLANS
DIFFERENTIATED UNIT AND LESSON PLANS
DIFFERENTIATED UNIT AND LESSON PLANS
Order Description
The assignment should progress based on three parts, starting with the unit plan and then following with lesson plan 1 & 2. Also, just for extra reference, I am including a former student’s unit plan, lesson plan 1 and lesson plan 2. You should be able to see how lesson plan 1 and 2 are based directly on the unit plan.
• Please click attachments: Unit Plan-Amelia Ng, Lesson Plan 1-Amelia Ng, and Lesson Plan 2-Amelia Ng.
DIFFERENTIATED UNIT PLAN TOPIC INSTRUCTIONS
In a Word document, explain your ideas for your Differentiated Unit Plan. Reflect on previous lesson plans that you have created for other courses to help you come up with your topic. Keep in mind that the information you submit here will be the basic structure applied to each subsequent stage of this project—you must be consistent. I will be providing a previous lesson plan.
Please click attachments: My Previous Lesson Plan
The following information should be included in your Differentiated Unit Plan Topic submission:
• Unit theme
(examples: spaceships)
• Character principle (choose one from the list provided)
(example: Justice – The entitlement of every person to that fair treatment which is his or her impartial or unprejudiced due. “God is no respecter of persons.” (Acts 10:34b)
• Grade level for your proposed class
(example: fourth grade)
• Subjects
(example: Reading and Math)
• Primary SOL (Virginia Standard of Learning) for each subject
(example: Reading 4.6 c. explain author’s purpose; Math 4.2 a. compare and order fractions and mixed numbers))
Carefully read the grading rubric for the assignment.
DIFFERENTIATED LESSON PLANS INSTRUCTIONS
You are to create 2 lesson plans addressing the same theme (chosen in your project proposal). These lessons need to incorporate specific differentiated instruction within your teaching of the concept as well as the practice of it. Remember that the key to differentiation is not everyone doing the same thing, but learning the same concept by differing your instruction and practice. This means that you must include many different options for your students. For example, if you are teaching the parts of a plant cell, your students could be creating a skit acting out the different parts of a cell, producing a commercial describing the parts of a cell, sketching the parts of a cell, visually representing the parts of a plant cell using craft supplies, or producing a research paper addressing all parts of a plant cell. For this concept, all students are mastering the parts of the cell but in different ways. All activities must be presented with enough details so that a substitute teacher could teach from the plan. Use the provided template to complete your lessons.
Case Study legal elements
Case Study legal elements
Order Description
As much as higher education administrators may work to reduce the number of perilous incidents on their campuses, incidents happen, and often without any warning. Moreover, higher education administrators must be prepared to respond to such incidents in a timely, adequate, and ethical and legal manner.
For this assignment, students will select a specific case from the textbook (A Legal Guide for Student Affairs Professionals 2nd ed). The case study will describe the details of a specific incident on a college campus. I will upload the the case study as an additional file. The case to be studied is the last paragraph on pg. 110 (Prairie View A&M University of Texas v. Mitchell), it continues on pg. 111.
You are asked to discuss:
What are the ethical elements of this case?
What are the legal elements of this case?
As the primary administrator responsible for this area/scenario in question:
What are the short term recommendations?
What are the long term recommendations?
Prepare a written memorandum that addresses the instructions and questions of the case study.
To complete this assignment, it is expected that you use material beyond the course material.
The case study memorandum should:
• Be written from an analytical and objective point of view
• Address the instructions of the case study
• Address the questions of the case study
• Be 7 to 10 pages (the page length does not include cover page, references, or appendix)
• Follow APA format
• Include a reference list that follows APA format
