A Program for Children or Young Adults

Assessing the needs of the community and creating programs and services addressing those needs are a critical part of librarians and information leaders working with children and young adults. This assessment task requires you to identify a specific subgroup of children or young adults and their needs and to design a program targeting those needs.

Integrated Model Budget

You will complete the first seven components of the Sorenson-Goldsmith Integrated Budget
Model, a Site-Based Decision Making process described in Chapter 3 of Sorenson and
Goldsmith (2018).
For each component, make sure you answer the underlined questions. Feel free to address other
questions in the prompts. You should have approximately 1-2 paragraphs for each section (four
sections total).
Component 1 and 2: Defining and Selecting Stakeholders
Reflect on the stakeholders represented in your school’s site-based decision-making team. Who
do you think should be represented on the school’s site-based decision-making team and why
(provide a bulleted list and at least one paragraph to describe your answer)? Are there individual
roles that you would consider adding or removing? Is one type of role under- or overrepresented?
How are individuals selected to serve on your school’s site-based decision-making team and how
do you think stakeholders for each role should be selected? For each role that you have
identified, how many individuals would be recommended for that role? What types of
individuals do you think should be represented in each role? Consider the fact that emphasizing
diversity on the site-based decision-making team will help the team reflect your school and
community population. How will you accomplish this diversity? Finally, does your school
currently offer training to site-based decision-making team and do you have recommendations
about adding or removing training? How long do you recommend that committee member terms
last?
Component 3 and 4: Data Gathering (Needs Assessment) and Analysis
Briefly describe the data used to support the needs assessment in your school’s Campus
Improvement Plan (CIP). Do you feel sufficient data has been collected and analyzed to assess
the needs on your campus, given the recommendations presented in Sorenson and Goldsmith
(2018)? What data would you recommend be included in the needs assessment component of
your school’s CIP (consider both categories of data, as outlined in Chapter 2 of SG and the
specific sources of data, as outlined in Chapter 3 of SG)? What data might need to be
disaggregated? What conclusions can be drawn from the data presented in your school’s CIP? Is
there any data missing from your school’s CIP that may help determine the extent to which your
school is accomplishing its mission and vision? Download additional data about your school
from the Texas Education Agency website that you feel might be relevant to your school’s needs
assessment. Create APA-formatted tables to display this information. You may include the data
you used in Assignment 2.

Component 5: Needs Prioritization
What needs are identified in your school’s Comprehensive Needs Assessment? Are there other
needs that you may consider adding? What do you see as the highest priority needs for your
campus?
Component 6 and 7: Goal Setting and Performance Objectives
Review the goals and performance in your school’s CIP. Do you feel that the fulfillment of your
school’s performance objectives would address the school goals (i.e., how well are performance
objectives tied to the goals? Provide specific examples)? What other performance objectives
would you consider adding to better align the performance objectives to the goals?

President

Pick a President Paper – Students will select a US President (and their administration) to evaluate. The purpose of this assignment will be for students to address multiple aspects of a president, their policies, the political climate of their administration, and their successes. In this course, we will examine how different presidents (and their administrations) serve as models for deeper analysis. This is your opportunity to evaluate a president. Upon selecting a president for examination, students should then address the following questions –
1) What was the historical period of your selected president? Does the historical period complicate the president’s ability to initiate policies or present a policy agenda?
2) What was composition of the US Congress at the time of your selected president? If this was a period of divided government, did the US Congress impede the president’s policies? If so, did the president then act to place a check on Congressional power?
3) What would scholars argue were the most important successes of your president’s term in office? Why were these noted accomplishments or successes?
Students will be asked to write 1,500 words (roughly 6 pages in a Word document) to address these questions. Students should use a variety of sources for this project. Books, memoirs (if your selected president wrote one), journal articles, newspapers, speeches, and documentaries should be consulted. While there are no restrictions on how many of each type of source is use, the assignment requires the demonstration of at least 10 scholarly sources. Students that do not demonstrate the use of at least 10 sources will receive a grade no higher than a C. Furthermore, papers that cite unsuitable sources (those not deemed scholarly) will receive a grade no higher than a C on the assignment. Students should ONLY consult books and scholarly journal articles (articles accessed by using the databases from the college’s library website). Scholarly journal articles are those sources located in JSTOR and Project Muse (the databases housed on the library’s website).
The instructor has provided a Tips for Success Guide for the location of suitable sources. This can be found in the Student Guides and Supplemental Information folder on Blackboard.
In order to successfully complete this assignment, students will be asked to submit a preliminary bibliography of intended sources. Submission of the bibliography will allow the instructor to ensure that your sources are suitable for the project. Students that fail to submit a bibliography will have their Pick a President Paper decreased by 10 percentage points. Each source will be graded separately upon this bibliography. Points will be lost per entry of an unsuitable source.

Week 7: Our Future Leaders

PLEASE REFERENCE THE REQUIRED BOOK AND ARTICLE PROVIDED!!!

This week’s graded discussion topic relates to the following Course Outcome (CO).
• CO5 Apply improvement methods, based on data from the outcomes of care processes, to design and test changes to continuously improve the quality and safety of healthcare. (PO 8)

In Huston’s (2010) brief, but impressive article (required reading this week), the author outlines several leadership competencies that EVERY nurse leader will need for 2020. That year is not too far in the future, is it?
1. Select one of the eight leadership competencies Huston described and relate it to your own leadership of nurses and nursing. This should promote a robust discussion as we come from different clinical and nonclinical perspectives.
2. Discuss how the BSN-prepared nurse can assist a nurse leader in the budgeting process by contributing data readily available to the staff nurse.
