Reflection Journal Assignment

Getting Started

Remember, the TED-style talk is separate from your Capstone Project. They are two separate projects that you will be working on, refining and implementing or presenting in the next two courses. The TED-style talk will be due in PSY 563 and your Capstone Project is due in PSY 590. In the previous course, you made some clear decisions regarding your upcoming TED-style talk, such as:

  • Summarizing what your TED-style talk will be about
  • How your topic relates to your personal journey
  • How you might incorporate a solution into your talk that solves a problem that would benefit others
  • Your chosen format (speech, podcast, animation, etc.)

In this journal, you are going to take those previous decisions and put them into motion. Specifically, you will go into greater detail and begin planning, designing and writing the content and identifying the actual resources you will need to do your talk.

Reflection Journal Assignment

Reflection Journal Assignment

This next step is particularly important because it will enable you to approach your TED-style talk with confidence, knowing the details that will help you to pull it all together.

To make organizing this easy for you, we’ve provided a template that will help you shape your ideas into a logical plan. This template is simply a one-page document that gives structure to your ideas. Once you open the document, you can simply insert your responses under each section. Be as detailed in your responses as possible. It’s fine if the completed document extends to two or more pages. This elaboration will only help you to take the next step, which is to actually finalize and record the TED-style talk in the next course.

Keep in mind that your TED-style talk needs to be between 15-20 minutes in length.  You don’t want to go much longer than that as you may lose the listener’s interest.

Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:

  • Explain in detailed fashion the main points and sub-points of your TED-style talk, the format, and all of the resources necessary to prepare and deliver the final product.

Reflection Journal Assignment

Instructions

Remember, the TED-style talk is separate from your Capstone Project. The TED-style talk and the Capstone Projects are two separate projects that you will be working on, refining, and implementing or presenting in the final course. Review the rubric to make sure you understand the criteria for earning your grade.

Read Chapter 5, “Coaching for Accomplishment: How to Help Clients Develop Competence as Well as Strengths,” in your textbook Positive Psychology in Coaching: Applying Science to Executive and Personal Coaching.

Review 12 Presentation Hooks Used by the Best TED Presenters(new tab) and watch some actual TED talks.

Read the article 10 Ways to Prepare for a TED Style Talk(new tab).

Your TED-style talk should be an integration of your personal journey and key concepts you are learning in this program related to positive psychology, well-being, or some other personal development perspective that interests you. After reading the assigned textbook chapter and article, download the TED-Style Talk Template(Word document) and respond to the following in a one-page document:

Improving Communication Through Awareness

The Critical Role of Cultural Awareness, Emotional Intelligence, and Mindfulness in Effective Communication

You are currently working in a communications and public relations firm. Your supervisor is aware that you have been studying communication competence and, in particular, the skills and responsibilities of competent intercultural communicators. She asked if you would be willing to share what you are learning with your coworkers.

Improving Communication Through Awareness

You readily agree to do a presentation titled, “The Critical Role of Cultural Awareness, Emotional Intelligence, and Mindfulness in Effective Communication.” She loves the outline you provided and has asked that you create a PowerPoint presentation, complete with speaker notes on each slide, to present to the group and later share with those who aren’t able to attend. Your goal is to not only explain communication competence as it relates to intercultural competence, cultural awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness, but you also want to set an example by evaluating your own communication competence as a way to model professional growth and development. You’ve decided to cap off the presentation by connecting the concepts to a public figure whose actions have been in the news.

Your PowerPoint presentation will include the following: Improving Communication Through Awareness

Part 1: What Is Communication Competence?

This section of your PowerPoint presentation will include slides that explain and give examples of communication competence related to intercultural competence and cultural awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness. You decide to

  • Explain intercultural competence and cultural awareness and how both can support communication competence. Include relevant examples and/or quotes. (1–2 slides)Improving Communication Through Awareness
  • Explain emotional intelligence and how it can support communication competence. Include relevant examples and/or quotes. (1–2 slides)
  • Explain mindfulness and how it can support communication competence. Include relevant examples and/or quotes. (1–2 slides)

Part 2: Evaluating and Enhancing Communication Competence

This section of your PowerPoint presentation has two sections. In the first section you will strive to evaluate and enhance your own communication competence. In the second section, you will do the same for a public figure whose image is in need of repair.

  • Section 1: Evaluating and Enhancing Your Own Communication Competence.,
    • To evaluate your communication competence take at least two of the quizzes presented in the Module 2 resources., Make sure one focuses on cultural awareness and the other on emotional intelligence.,
    • Summarize the evaluations citing the sources that helped you assess your strengths and limitations. (1–2 slides),
    • Describe at least 3 strategies that can help you enhance your communication skills in these areas., Again, cite your sources. (1–2 slides)
    • Additionally, summarize insights you gained from this evaluation. (1–2 slides)
  • Section 2: Evaluating and Enhancing the Communication Competence of a Public Figure
    • Choose a specific political figure, celebrity, sports figure, CEO of a company, or other public figure who has recently been in the news and has exhibited offensive/sexist/racist verbal and/or nonverbal actions that have not met with public approval.
    • Summarize this person’s competency as a communicator, i.e., his or her communication strengths and limitations related to cultural awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness, related to recent events. Substantiate your thinking by citing the resources. (1–2 slides)
    • Describe the practical advice/strategies you would offer this person to improve his or her communication competence in these areas to begin to repair his or her image. (1–2 slides)

Note: The last slide (or slides) of your PowerPoint presentation should list the resources you used for your presentation.

Improving Patient Response Times

For this assessment, you will analyze a safety quality issue in a health care setting and identify a quality improvement (QI) initiative.

Be sure that your plan addresses the following, which corresponds to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Please study the scoring guide carefully so that you know what is needed for a distinguished score.


Improving Patient Response Times

  • Explain factors leading to a specific patient-safety risk in a health care setting.,
  • Explain evidence-based and best-practice solutions to improve patient safety and reduce costs.,
  • Explain how nurses can help coordinate care to increase patient safety and reduce costs.,
  • Identify stakeholders with whom nurses would coordinate to drive safety enhancements with a specific safety quality issue.,
  • Communicate using writing that is clear logical and professional with correct grammar and spelling using current APA style.,

Case Study:

Delayed Response to Deteriorating Patient Condition in Healthcare: A patient’s condition can change rapidly, and timely interventions are often crucial to prevent further deterioration or even save a life. For nursing students, understanding the implications of delayed responses to such changes is vital. Here’s why:

Improving Patient Response Times

o Patient Safety and Outcomes: The most immediate concern with delayed responses is the potential harm to the patient. Rapid interventions can prevent complications, reduce the severity of outcomes, and in some cases, be the difference between life and death.

o Window of Intervention: Many medical conditions have a critical window during which interventions are most effective. Delays in recognizing and responding can narrow or close this window, limiting treatment options and reducing the likelihood of positive outcomes.

o Increased Complexity of Care: A patient who has deteriorated further due to a delayed response often requires more complex and aggressive treatments than if the issue had been addressed promptly. This can involve higher-risk procedures, more medications, and longer recovery times.

o Emotional and Psychological Impact on Patients and Families: Witnessing a loved one deteriorate without prompt intervention can be traumatic for families. It can lead to feelings of helplessness, frustration, and mistrust towards the healthcare system.

o Professional Implications: Delays in responding to deteriorating patients can have significant repercussions for healthcare professionals. These might include disciplinary actions, loss of licensure, legal consequences, and damage to one’s professional reputation.

o Economic Costs: Delays can lead to extended hospital stays, additional treatments, and potential lawsuits, all of which result in increased costs for healthcare systems and patients.

o Team Dynamics and Morale: Repeated incidents of delayed responses can strain team dynamics. It can lead to blame, guilt, and tensions among team members, impacting the overall functioning and morale of the unit.

Improving Patient Response Times

o Quality Metrics and Accreditation: Healthcare facilities often have quality metrics that track response times to various clinical scenarios. Poor performance in these metrics can lead to penalties, increased scrutiny, and challenges in maintaining accreditation.

Additional Requirements:

  • Length of submission:3–5 pages, plus title and reference pages.
  • Number of references:Cite a minimum of 4 sources of scholarly or professional evidence that support your findings and considerations. Resources should be no more than 5 years old.
  • APA formatting:References and citations are formatted according to current APA style.
