Shattered Glass I think that the significance is that they want to tell us that the movie was issued for young people. It displays the silly mistake people do at a tender age. Some mistakes can even affect your future career or your whole life. This would pertain to generation Y. Stephen Glass knows how to get along with his colleague and boss. He knows how to win the trust of his colleagues and boss. He uses his colleagues and boss’s trust for his advantage to publish fabricated articles. When you become excellent, you will attract people’s attention. Employees of other magazines, such as Adam, found Stephen Glass’ s article was fabricated, this led to Stephen Glass getting fired. F Chuck is the most ethical character in the movie. He found that Glass had problems and persisted in the investigation. Finally, He did not cover up Stephen Glass’s mistakes for the sake of the company. Because his colleagues supported him, and he thought Chuck would forgive him like Michael. Caitlin got affected by his lies If a writer has a…
Reply to Kaitlin Ross Hey Kaitlin Hello Kaitlin, thanks for sharing! I was interested in your post since I also chose to practice nursing within the scope and regulations of the Texas Nursing Practice Act. I agree that in Texas, registered nurses are required to supervise LVNs as they undertake certain duties in the hospital. Among the challenges that LVNs often face as they practice nursing include lack of enough experience hence restricting them from working in specialized areas, limiting them to advancements or pay opportunities (Benbow, Abel, Benton & Hooper, 2014). References Benbow, D. A., Abel, J. R., Benton, K., & Hooper, J. I. (2014). Beyond the Scope of Practice: Licensed Vocational (Practical) Nurses in Community Settings. Journal of Nursing Regulation, 5(3), 14-18. Reply to Christina Katsiyiannis Hey Christina, Hello Christina, thanks for sharing! I like your responses since they are straight forward and informative. I agree that the RN is required to be responsible for delegating LVN’s since they may not have the experience to handle all tasks effectively. Moreover, LVN’s can be beneficial in…
DECLINE OF ADDED RESPONSIBILITIES Dear Sir/Madam In line with my experience and skills, I am grateful that the company decided to add me to the newly established committee for the upcoming project. However, after considerable thought, I have come to a conclusion that I will not be able to take this offer. I was very much looking forward to being part of this committee as it is for the best interest of my company, however, with my current duties and responsibilities in the company for which I am committed to fully execute, I feel that more responsibilities that will come with this committee would burden me. For this particular committee, the stated duties and responsibilities that I should hold don’t meet the path I am taking to achieve my career goals as it is the case with my current roles. Moreover, the company does not offer any added compensation or promotion for these added responsibilities hence not motivating enough for me to take up these responsibilities. If I accepted this offer, I am confident that I will not execute the…

How race and gender is socially constructed What are the measures for the extent to which race is perceived? Raced- based inferences stereotypes have been quickly inactivated and activated. A person’s race has to be noticed as well as remembered before activation of a racial stereotype, and at times, racially motivated behavior takes place. From a personal perspective, the race is described as a grouping of human beings that is based on shared social or physical qualities in categories that are viewed to be distinct by the community. Discrimination should not be used when describing the term race (Huang et al. n.d). Discrimination is illegal when it comes to race, and all people should respect racial differences. Are teachers in your society racists subconsciously, and do they mistreat the students by creating racist environments as they do not realize it? Racism has been a pervasive problem in my society, and it has affected schools throughout the nation. Racism in schools has been found in the way the teachers interact with the students, and in the way, the students interact with…

Career Stereotypes and Identities In the article “Career Stereotypes and Identities: Implicit Beliefs and Major Choice for College Women and Men in STEM and Female-Dominated Fields (2019),” Dunlap and Barth examine the gendered nature of the beliefs people hold concerning STEM careers. By focusing on getting a better understanding of the gendered nature of the beliefs that relate to STEM careers, the authors shed more light on factors that relate to the STEM gender gap. In their analysis, they claim that both implicit and explicit beliefs have a relationship with the gendered outcomes. As a result, they suggest that implicit beliefs should not assume non-existence explicit beliefs. According to labor statistics, stereotypical beliefs hinder qualified women from pursuing STEM careers (Xue and Larson, 2015). As a result, workplaces experience critical shortages. Most men in the past who used to earn and support their families have shifted towards careers that mainly comprise of analytical skills. In contrast, women, have migrated towards social sensitivity and nurturance fields following their historical values of caring for their homes and children. These gender divisions give…
The judge said his help made no sense, so he lied and lied. Speaker 1: (00:00) [inaudible]. Hello. Speaker 2: (00:36) The judge said his help made no sense, so he lied and lied. Speaker 1: (00:42) He was right, though. Speaker 3: (00:45) It didn’t ruin me, Speaker 1: (00:49) but I was facing a big quarter. We canceled each other out that day. In order to bring him down, I had to also lose. Everything is packed between us. Karen, we wondered if you could say something to the press. I’ve drafted some souls for you. I wondered if you and John could make a joint statement. Is there and father together because I’m not giving up. Not till the truth comes out. Well, that wasn’t a child. That was a tribal state. What about the drunk dude? As Chris was talking about, has anyone been looking for folks who are involved with them? We need answers. I’m not doing a joint statement with John. You’re on your own with him. I don’t need…
Reply to Dion Mari Acha Hello Dion, I liked your choice of Provision 1 of the Code of Ethics for Nurses. The provision requires the nurse to advocate for and protect the patient’s health, rights, and safety. I agree that patient education is crucial in implementing the provision since it results in improved outcomes and the creation of awareness of the side-effects of the medication. Nurses can also implement this provision by advocating for the rights of their patients, as well as vulnerable populations in society (Hanks, 2013). References Hanks, R. G. (2013). Social advocacy: A call for nursing action. Pastoral Psychology, 62(2), 163-173. Reply to Megan Ulloa Hello Megan, I was interested in your choice of Provision 5 since it emphasizes, among others, the need for continuing professional and personal growth. Professional growth is vital in nursing practice as it enables nurses to have more knowledge in a particular specialty, which creates room for higher career status (Eason, 2010). I agree that the issue of integrating social justice to healthcare and nursing can be challenging since…
Question 1 on Importance of psychological evaluations in police recruitments The case of John, a young military veteran, who joined peace police after working in low-ranking positions, is a clear indication of why psychological evaluations are essential. Prior psychological evaluations indicated that John had moderate emotional detachments and low levels of empathy. The agency decided to take him to the police academy without going through the psychological tests again. As a result, he was fired a few years after that for unreported cases of abuse of power. This outlines the usefulness of psychological evaluation and why all stages must be completed. It is at this point for the assessment that the agency determines whether an individual is emotionally and psychologically moral to uphold the rule of law and respect other people’s liberty and rights. The psychological evaluation ensures that a person has ethical standards required to take specific responsibilities. The psychologist working for the agency helps them in determining whether the person they are looking to hire must possess the necessary attributes to succeed as a police officer. The fact…
