DOES MEDIA REFLECT CULTURE OR DOES IT CREATE CULTURE?
Both media and culture are connected and they are inseparable. Various levels of understanding influence the contents of the media; on the other hand, platforms and contents of the media have a big impact on the day to day and cultural practices. One of the practices influenced by the media is the health-related decisions of individuals (Georgiou, 2017). Therefore, media has measurable effects which come as a result of the messages given by the media. We can, therefore, say that media both reflects society and shapes the culture.
Media reflect culture
Taking legacy media for instance, for a magazine dealing with fashion, in determining what ladies should and should not dress, they need first of all to mirror the present-day society so that they will be able to establish what the women want. Without doing this, the magazine will be nothing than common sense within a typical mind of the woman. This, therefore, means that the media has to establish certain things to do or not do which means they are reflecting the society (Berger, 2017).
Secondly, Legacy media depend more on society than society depends on them. Even if without the mass media the society would struggle getting news broadcast and entertainment, the society will still be alive but without the society, the media will not be there. They, therefore, have to reflect what the culture of the society wants.
For instance, there is this radio show which conducted a publicity stunt which shocked the audience, what followed was unanimous public reactions of condemnation from the public. The culprits engineered the stunt which was to push the boundaries of acceptable decency, but the reactions of condemnation caught them by surprise. This is simply because they failed to realize that society is much more conservative than they expected. The stunt itself as something of a mirror, but the society did not like what they saw. They believed that the stunt crossed the lie and the society cried out. The line that marks out the acceptable and unacceptable things is still clear to society, and the media just reflects it.
Media create culture
In another sense, the media pushes the boundaries of values, therefore, contributing to the shaping of the culture. The media is capable of controlling a whole nation if the media barons or political parties manipulate it (Fiske, & Hancock, 2016). The media sometimes cannot be trusted in giving out facts without slanting them in one specific direction of interpretation. The reporting offered is based on some hid.
Mass communication plays an important role in health promotion. It can be used to raise public awareness of health issues through information giving and reminding people of risks and benefits. Planned campaigns can reach large audiences but require funding. Unpaid publicity provides low-cost credibility but less message control. Media advocacy aims to influence policy by shaping public opinion. While media alone cannot drive behavior change, it can support individuals and social change by endorsing healthy norms. Effective health communication combines informative media with opportunities for interaction.
Perficient Perspectives: The Evolution of Social Media in HealthcarePerficient, Inc.
Healthcare organizations continue to navigate the transforming healthcare industry and identify new avenues to engage with consumers outside of the facility walls. In a fast-paced, information-dominated world, successfully interacting with consumers may seem like a daunting task. The key is to connect with consumers where they are and provide them with actionable health and wellness information they need to live a healthier life.
When you think of social media in healthcare you might think it is a tool for marketing, but it goes much farther than that. Sure, social media can be used to attract and retain consumers, but social media can also be a powerful tool to reduce healthcare costs and help with chronic disease and population health management.
Healthcare organizations are in varying stages of becoming social enterprises, from social innovators like Mayo Clinic to those beginning the journey to developing a comprehensive social media strategy.
In this perspective, we take a look at the evolution of social media in healthcare and discuss what social media in healthcare will look like in the future.
This document provides a literature review and environmental scan on population-based health communication and social determinants of health. It discusses research showing that targeting specific audiences, framing messages based on political ideology, and increasing public support for policies addressing social and environmental factors can help reduce health disparities. The review examines topics like equity, investing in prevention outside of medical care, communicating about shifting investments, and how social circumstances impact behaviors and health outcomes. It provides examples of communication strategies and considerations for population health advocates in messaging around social determinants.
This document discusses how consumers use the internet and social media for health information. About half of US adults own smartphones and 17% use them to look up health information. Social media allows for direct communication between patients and providers and the sharing of health experiences. However, privacy and unreliable information are concerns. The role of nurses includes disseminating effective health information online and enhancing provider-patient communication through technology.
The Power of Social in health and healthcareD3 Consutling
This document summarizes key points about the power of social networks in health and healthcare. It discusses how social media is increasingly important for patients and providers. Patients are using social platforms to find support from others experiencing similar health issues and to learn about new treatments. Some healthcare providers are effectively using social media to engage patients and share medical expertise. The document also describes several digital health startups that are connecting patients, caregivers, and medical professionals through social platforms to improve health outcomes.
Social media is considered a new revolution in healthcare. The healthcare digital transformation doesn’t simply happen at night. All patients want to reduce the complexities and inconveniences of doctor’s traditional consultation. In this case the adoption of healthcare digital marketing is important for all healthcare users. We explain how social health revives the patient journey in the digital era. For better digital healthcare solutions, get in touch with experts at EMed HealthTech today!

This document outlines a presentation on digital medicine and new challenges for health informatics. It discusses how digital technologies are converging with medicine and impacting patients through wearables, apps, direct-to-consumer services, and social networks. Precision medicine and participatory health are highlighted as key research areas. The role of biomedical informatics is examined in relation to social media, self-quantification, and exposome informatics. Research being conducted at HaBIC and potential frameworks for understanding quantified self data and its therapeutic benefits are summarized.
This document discusses the emergence of digital platforms that encourage patients to share their healthcare experiences online. It argues that while these platforms aim to provide support and information to users, patients' contributions have become commercially exploited. Specifically, the data shared on the platforms is aggregated and monetized by their owners. The document examines this "digital patient experience economy" through the lenses of prosumption, big data, and how digital interactions shape metric assemblages of individuals. It contends that while platforms give patients new ways to share their stories, their experiences have also become novel commodities.
The rise of digital technologies has transformed healthcare by empowering patients through greater access to information via social media and mobile devices. While social media usage among older patients and those with chronic conditions still lags, it is growing rapidly. Social media plays a critical role throughout a patient's healthcare journey by expanding their ability to discuss health issues with others. However, more investigation is needed to fully understand the impact of social media on healthcare decisions and outcomes.
M. Chris Gibbons - Health IT and Healthcare DisparitiesPlain Talk 2015
"Health IT and Healthcare Disparities" was presented at the Center for Health Literacy Conference 2011: Plain Talk in Complex Times by M. Chris Gibbons, MD, MPH, Associate Director, Johns Hopkins Urban Health Institute.
Description: This presenter will discuss the use of technology and consumer health information to improve healthcare disparities.
Engaging patients through social media imshealth 2014Georgi Daskalov
The document discusses the rise of social media in healthcare and its impact. It notes that while social media usage is growing, it still lags among older patient populations. Regulators have been slow to provide guidance on social media. Pharmaceutical companies have also been slow to embrace social media, but smaller companies and those in consumer healthcare are leading the way. Further investigation is needed to fully understand the impact of social media on healthcare decisions and outcomes.
Over the past decade, consumers have been exposed to many new digital health technologies and their use in clinical care. These technologies have helped make health information more accessible, especially for underserved populations. Health workers and healthcare systems now use technology as a tool to reach and engage these groups for health education, disease prevention, and care management. Population health approaches aim to improve outcomes for entire groups and reduce disparities. These approaches consider social factors and engage multiple sectors. Incorporating technology into population health requires understanding that people should come first, and using technology to identify community strengths and tailor strategies based on community feedback.
Secada_Francis - Public Campaign - Final ProjectFrancis Secada
This campaign seeks to increase annual health screenings among young insured adults. A survey found that having insurance does not necessarily lead people to have a regular doctor or get screenings. The campaign will target ages 25-39 in major cities through ads on commutes and in stores. Ads will emphasize that screenings are free and finding a doctor is easy using a new app. The app helps users find doctors and schedule appointments to get screenings, with the goal of catching health issues early when treatment is cheaper and safer. The campaign aims to change the behavior of using insurance for preventive care by making the process simple and emphasizing long-term health benefits.

A Communicator's Guide to COVID-19 VaccinationSarah Jackson
This guide provides research, theories, models, and recommendations for communicating about COVID-19 vaccines effectively. Key points include:
1. Vaccine hesitancy is influenced by perceptions of risk and safety rather than just lack of information. Tailored communication for different audiences is important.
2. Marginalized groups have lower vaccine confidence due to historic inequities. Their input and addressing cultural factors are critical.
3. Healthcare providers are the most trusted source but must have adequate knowledge, resources and confidence in the vaccine themselves.
4. Identifying and engaging with opinion leaders in target communities can increase uptake through social influence. Understanding anti-vaccination movements is also important.

It provides definitions of mass media and discusses how mass media influences people's behaviors, health behaviors, and social outcomes. Mass media is found to shape public opinion and cultural norms. While it can positively influence behaviors like reducing smoking, it can also negatively impact students by distracting them from their studies and values.

This document discusses the revolution of the e-patient and e-doctor through online and social media platforms. It provides data on increasing usage of social media in healthcare, including statistics on patients searching for health information online and engaging with social networks. Examples are given of pharmaceutical and medical organizations utilizing social media and various health-related applications are mentioned.
Using technology-enabled social prescriptions to disrupt healthcareDr Sven Jungmann
As chronic diseases are increasingly straining healthcare systems, social factors are gaining importance. Since the birth of social medicine (19th century), we saw many failed attempts to beat the dominance of the biomedical model. Social prescriptions have come, raising hopes that non-biomedical solutions will improve outcomes and optimise resource use. Social Prescriptions connect citizens to support to address social determinants of health and encourage self-care for physical and mental health. Social prescriptions can make us healthier cheaper and with fewer side effects than most drugs. Social prescriptions can become a disruptive force as they can be personalised, improve lifestyle-related diseases, and support non-biomedical issues affected by social determinants of health.
Future of Healthcare Provision Jan 2017Future Agenda
Building on insights from our 2015 future of health discussions, this is a new initial view on how healthcare provision may change, especially given emerging opportunities for improved patient engagement. As well as insights from discussions in India, UK, Canada, Singapore and the US it also includes other additional perspectives shared in interviews and workshops over the past 12 months.
We recognise that given the multi-factored nature of this topic and the rapid emergence of new options, what we have summarised in this document is itself in flux. As such, over the next few months we will be sharing this more widely for additional feedback ahead of publication of an updated paper over the summer. So, if you have any comments on changes and additions or issues that you think need more detail, please let us know and we will include.

Low health literacy can influence the actions of public health leaders in several ways. Individuals with low literacy have a limited understanding of health information and are less likely to adopt recommended health behaviors or participate in programs. This makes it difficult for public health leaders to achieve their goals. Additionally, low participation in screening and immunization programs can decrease as a result of low health literacy. However, using entertaining media like radio dramas and visual tools can make health information more accessible and understandable to those with low literacy, helping them make informed decisions and potentially engage in behavior change.
Health innovation world population health - medx.care 2MEDx eHealthCenter
This document discusses strategies for developing population health and behavioral health. It addresses low levels of public trust in healthcare as a problem to be solved. It defines population health as an interdisciplinary approach that connects practice to policy through partnerships across different community sectors to improve health outcomes. The key difference between population health and public health is that population health provides opportunities for healthcare organizations to work together to improve community health, while public health focuses on policy, education, and research. The document proposes addressing this issue through a nationwide process and strong cloud-based technology to achieve population health through interdependence rather than just interoperability.
HEALTH COMMUNICATION & MASS MEDIA IN PUBLIC HEALTHAminu Kende
The media is an important ally in any public health situation. It serves the role of being a source of correct information as well as an advocate for correct health behaviors. But before the media can take on that role, it needs to understand the virus, the issues surrounding it, policy and practices, and finally, recommended correct behaviors.

The Relevance of Psychological Theories in Criminology
The engagement of an individual in criminal activities is often influenced by various underlying factors. As such various theories have been developed to explain the behavioral patterns of criminals and enable the criminal justice departments to operate effectively. Among the developed theories, the psychological theories are perhaps the most accurate in the field of criminology. Psychological theories are based on an interaction between biological and social-cultural factors that either promote or deter criminal behavior, (Walters, 2016). Classical theories of criminology did not account for the state of mind of criminals. As such, many criminals in the past were convicted of crimes they committed unknowingly. This has changed since the adoption of psychological theories. Both individuals as well as criminal justice officials now understand that psychological factors influence criminal behavior. Appropriate measures have been implemented to ensure that the criminal justice department treats all persons fairly by assessing underlying psychological factors. As such, psychological theories have not only promoted the work of the criminal justice department but also promoted individual awareness about underlying mental conditions that affect an individual’s behavior, (Byrne & Hummer, 2016).
Review of the Literature
1. Byrne, J., & Hummer, D. (2016). An examination of the impact of criminological theory on community corrections practice. Fed. Probation, 80, 15.
According toByrne & Hummer (2016), psychological theories have the most direct influence on probation and parole compared to other theories of criminology. The authors have comprehensively analyzed the impact of various theories used to evaluate criminal behavior. They suggest that behavior is intertwined with unconscious motives. Therefore, understanding the reasons behind a crime requires a psychological evaluation to understand the interaction of the two factors. This article is suitable for this research because it captures the relevance of psychological theories in criminology.
2. Dippong, J., & Fitch, C. (2017). Emotions in criminological theory: Insights from social psychology. Sociology Compass, 11(4), e12473.
Few formal theories have been developed to capture the role of emotional processes as facilitators or inhibitors of crime, (Dippong & Fitch, 2017). According to the authors, gaps in criminology can be filled by focusing on the underlying psychological factors of the offenders. The article highlights the effect that practices such as interrogation have on the mental state of an individual thus resulting in inaccurate findings during criminal investigations. As such, this article is a reliable source of information about the relevance of applying psychological theories in criminology. .

A comparative analysis between Korean melodrama and other local melodrama
Student name
Institution
Most studies in recent times have discovered that Korean dramas have come with a “Korean wave” in media in the global stage. Audiences have been reconceptualised due to the availability of internet and computer that have facilitated the digital revolution. Korean melodrama has earned more views than local melodrama, a result of its marketing its content without owning a means of distribution.
Korean melodrama is a representation of a product that is a hybrid of Hollywood, since Korean melodrama makes use of practices, tools, and conventions in the narrative that comes with the preoccupation of the Korean socio-political and historical aspects. The aspect of familiarity that lacks in local melodrama exists in Korean melodrama. Studies in have shown that audiences tend to respond positively to things they are familiar to and that is exactly what Korean melodrama is.
The use of genre by Korean melodrama is a huge success to its big audiences from the west, as a study by the Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA) back in 2015 estimated that around 19 million Americans enjoy Korean melodrama compared to five million who preferred local melodrama as they are a definition of what the world is in reality. The aspect of what is good and what is bad entangled with emotional narratives that give the audience an opportunity to select a hero or a heroine (Martin, 2019).
Korean melodrama are structured in a way that the audience can critique structures of institutional powers and explore a world with aspects of complex social issues. Korean melodrama has a vital element of their characters not being complex and this does not place a huge burden of danger or any sort of conflict in their existing world (Smith, 2017). The study also found out that Korean dramas have integrated aspects of adventures, romance and included professional fields like doctors and police, and lawyer, which are familiar genres to the audience. The structure of the Korean melodrama comes along with themes and selective iconography that make Korean melodrama suitable for global audiences.
Korean drama has earned viewers more than local dramas in the local stage given the Korean dramas depict the actual Korean culture. Most people are attracted to Korean melodrama since they are interested with the reality. A study by a Korean television found out that their supervisor had received more than five hundred emails from people who were not Korean to include English subtitles in their videos. This proves to be a massive support comparing people have less interest in their local drama. Korean drama have earned a huge fan base due to the license agreement of online streaming that was agreed by Korea (Moon, 2019). Studies have recorded that the market of Korean melodrama has around 12% of them wh.

1. Byrne, J., & Hummer, D. (2016). An examination of the impact of criminological theory on community corrections practice. Fed. Probation, 80, 15.
According toByrne & Hummer (2016), psychological theories have the most direct influence on probation and parole compared to other theories of criminology. The authors have comprehensively analyzed the impact of various theories used to evaluate criminal behavior. They suggest that behavior is intertwined with unconscious motives. Therefore, understanding the reasons behind a crime requires a psychological evaluation to understand the interaction of the two factors. This article is suitable for this research because it captures the relevance of psychological theories in criminology.

Few formal theories have been developed to capture the role of emotional processes as facilitators or inhibitors of crime, (Dippong & Fitch, 2017). According to the authors, gaps in criminology can be filled by focusing on the underlying psychological factors of the offenders. The article highlights the effect that practices such as interrogation have on the mental state of an individual thus resulting in inaccurate findings during criminal investigations. As such, this article is a reliable source of information about the relevance of applying psychological theories in criminology. .

A comparative analysis between Korean melodrama and other local melodrama
Student name

Most studies in recent times have discovered that Korean dramas have come with a “Korean wave” in media in the global stage. Audiences have been reconceptualised due to the availability of internet and computer that have facilitated the digital revolution. Korean melodrama has earned more views than local melodrama, a result of its marketing its content without owning a means of distribution.
Korean melodrama is a representation of a product that is a hybrid of Hollywood, since Korean melodrama makes use of practices, tools, and conventions in the narrative that comes with the preoccupation of the Korean socio-political and historical aspects. The aspect of familiarity that lacks in local melodrama exists in Korean melodrama. Studies in have shown that audiences tend to respond positively to things they are familiar to and that is exactly what Korean melodrama is.
The use of genre by Korean melodrama is a huge success to its big audiences from the west, as a study by the Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA) back in 2015 estimated that around 19 million Americans enjoy Korean melodrama compared to five million who preferred local melodrama as they are a definition of what the world is in reality. The aspect of what is good and what is bad entangled with emotional narratives that give the audience an opportunity to select a hero or a heroine (Martin, 2019).
Korean melodrama are structured in a way that the audience can critique structures of institutional powers and explore a world with aspects of complex social issues. Korean melodrama has a vital element of their characters not being complex and this does not place a huge burden of danger or any sort of conflict in their existing world (Smith, 2017). The study also found out that Korean dramas have integrated aspects of adventures, romance and included professional fields like doctors and police, and lawyer, which are familiar genres to the audience. The structure of the Korean melodrama comes along with themes and selective iconography that make Korean melodrama suitable for global audiences.
Korean drama has earned viewers more than local dramas in the local stage given the Korean dramas depict the actual Korean culture. Most people are attracted to Korean melodrama since they are interested with the reality. A study by a Korean television found out that their supervisor had received more than five hundred emails from people who were not Korean to include English subtitles in their videos. This proves to be a massive support comparing people have less interest in their local drama. Korean drama have earned a huge fan base due to the license agreement of online streaming that was agreed by Korea (Moon, 2019). Studies have recorded that the market of Korean melodrama has around 12% of them wh.

Critical Evaluation of Four Articles On Note Taking
Critical Evaluation of Four Articles On Note Taking
Note taking is the process of recording information from another source and is an integral part of university studies. Comprehensive studies have been conducted to underline the cognitive process of note taking. This essay aims to critique four research articles pertaining to the study of note taking namely by highlighting several pros and cons of certain methodologies used, to improve future researches done on the topic of note taking.
The first article aims to examine whether the use of laptops in note taking impairs learning compared to people who were using the longhand method (Mueller & Oppenheimer, 2014). They conducted three experiments to investigate whether taking notes on a laptop versus writing longhand would affect academic performance, and to explore the potential mechanism of verbatim overlap as a proxy for the depth of processing. They used an experimental design in order to achieve a quantitative result. Using five 15 minutes TED talks lectures, the use of either laptop or longhand method for note taking as a categorical variable, and 67 participant samples from different university research subject pools, they concluded that participants using laptops were more inclined to take verbatim notes than participants using the longhand method. An overlooked procedure of this methodology is that in their first study, either one or two students were placed in an enclosed room.Mueller & Oppenheimer (2014) unknowingly made this a variable in their experiment. Additionally, typical university lectures are done in an occupied lecture hall. Mueller and Oppenheimer (2014) should have had his experiments in a lecture hall with students while testing his participants, emulating an environment similar to the real world. Doing so would increase external validity without sacrificing internal validity. Participants were taken randomly from a pool of voluntary university students, which is a good representation of the larger population for their hypothesis of the experiment. Mueller and Oppenheimer (2014) did not account for how the participants usually took notes in their classes. Instructing the participants to take down notes in a medium they are not used to could have affected their implicit processing of information, affecting results. The experimenters should have divided the participants into two separate groups based on which medium they were more comfortable in using. A third control group whereby participants did not take notes would have been beneficial to this experiment, eliminating compromising factors such as selection threats (Trochim, 2006).
The next article alleviates most of the previously stated concerns. This experiment was conducted to determine whether students’ note-taking and online chatting can influence their recalls of lecture content and note quality (Wei , Wang .

Critique of Quantitative, Qualitative, or Mixed Method Design
Both quantitative and qualitative methods play a pivotal role in nursing research. Qualitative research helps nurses and other healthcare workers to understand the experiences of the patients on health and illness. Quantitative data allows researchers to use an accurate approach in data collection and analysis. When using quantitative techniques, data can be analyzed using either descriptive statistics or inferential statistics which allows the researchers to derive important facts like demographics, preference trends, and differences between the groups. The paper comprehensively critiques quantitative and quantitative techniques of research. Furthermore, the author will also give reasons as to why qualitative methods should be regarded as scientific.
The overall value of quantitative and Qualitative Research
Quantitative studies allow the researchers to present data in terms of numbers. Since data is in numeric form, researchers can apply statistical techniques in analyzing it. These include descriptive statistics like mean, mode, median, standard deviation and inferential statistics such as ANOVA, t-tests, correlation and regression analysis. Statistical analysis allows us to derive important facts from data such as preference trends, demographics, and differences between groups. For instance, by conducting a mixed methods study to determine the feeding experiences of infants among teen mothers in North Carolina, Tucker and colleagues were able to compare breastfeeding trends among various population groups. The multiple groups compared were likely to initiate breastfeeding as follows: Hispanic teens 89%, Black American teens 41%, and White teens 52% (Tucker et al., 2011).
The high strength of quantitative analysis lies in providing data that is descriptive. The descriptive statistics helps us to capture a snapshot of the population. When analyzed appropriate, the descriptive data enables us to make general conclusions concerning the population. For instance, through detailed data analysis, Tucker and co-researchers were able to observe that there were a large number of adolescents who ceased breastfeeding within the first month drawing the need for nurses to conduct individualized follow-ups the early days after hospital discharge. These follow-ups would significantly assist in addressing the conventional technical problems and offer support in managing back to school transition (Tucker et al., 2011).
Qualitative research allows researchers to determine the client’s perspective on healthcare. It enables researchers to observe certain behaviors and experiences amo.

Peer-Reviewed Article Analysis
Technology has evolved over the years in various sectors, with new technological innovations being developed. One of the areas that has witnessed great applications of technological evolution is in the detection and prevention of crime. This article will analyze the various technologies that are used to prevent and detect crime.
Byrne and Marx (2011) in their article reviews the topic in detail and gives insight in the role of technology in combating crime.
The key data that will be used in this research is secondary data from various peer-reviewed sources that review the topic of Crime Analysis Technology from various perspectives. Byrne and Marx (2011) presents various data on crime and the use of Information Technology in crime detection and prevention. For instance, it highlights that the percentage of schools in the United States that deploy metal detectors is approximately 2%. The article also approximates that as of 2006, one million CCTV cameras had been deployed in the United States, although the article does not provide current estimates on the same.
The article plays a great role in my final research. It gives a highlight of the various technological applications for crime prevention and detection. This can provide a background for further research, especially the technological innovations that are currently being developed. The article also presents figures about various elements of technology in crime prevention and detection such as the number of CCTV cameras, the crime rates such as the registered sex offenders, among others. Projections can therefore be made to the future.
The article mentions several significant facts. First, it classifies technological innovations in criminal justice as hard technology versus soft technology. Hard technology innovations include hardware and materials while soft technology innovations include information systems and computer software. Examples of hard technology is the CCTV cameras, metal detectors, and security systems at homes and schools. Examples of soft technology include predictive policing technology, crime analysis techniques, software, and data sharing techniques, among others. Both of the two categories of technological innovations are important in criminal justice. Another fact is the new technology of policing. The article identifies hard policing technological tools such as non-lethal weaponry and technologies for officer safety. It highlights soft policing technologies such as data-driven policies in policing and information sharing. Another important fact that the article mentions is the issues that should be con.

Introduction
The purpose of a flowchart is to graphically present information in a logical pattern according to whatis.com (2018), usually showing the progression within a process from beginning to end. This flowchart will illustrate the pattern of progression in the criminal justice systems of Canada and India. In most countries policing, the courts, and the correctional systems are interdependent in this relationship, the police are the first step and the other steps follow in a logical progression. The purpose of mapping the steps of these countries criminal justice systems is to give visual context to this progression.
Criminal Justice of Canada
Police
Canada’s criminal justice system is not that different from other systems from around the world. The Canadian system comprised of the police who investigate crimes, collects evidence, and apprehend suspects for trial in the court system. Canada’s policing uses a decentralized multiple coordination model. In Canada, the federal government is constitutionally responsible for legislating in all areas that relate to criminal matters Braiden (2006), but legislating police activity is the responsibility of the provinces.
Each province has passed a Police Act to meet their responsibilities. Police forces in Canada deal with all types of crimes, from Crimes against Persons to Crimes Against Property according to the Canadian Department of Justice (2017). The crime being investigated will dictate the course of the investigation that will follow. To satisfy their role in the criminal justice flowchart the police must collect evidence and this evidence will be used at trial.
The gathering and preserving of evidence according to rules established within the Police Act and federal legislation spelled out in the Canadian Constitution Canadian Department of Justice (2017). Once an investigation occurs with the collection of evidence, and this evidence obtained through interviews and legally issued search warrants the police will develop a most likely and viable suspect and the police will request an arrest warrant for the suspect spelling out who they are looking to arrest and for what crime they wish to arrest them for.
Courts
The arrest is one of the final steps for the police in this matter and the beginning of the court process. The first step in this process is to put the person in custody into a holding cell usually at a detention center, the person is typically seen by a judge or a justice of the peace as soon as possible, this is usually done in twenty-four hours according to the Canadian Department of Justice (2017). At this point, the judge determines a pre-trial date in some cases will release the party on bail.
A bail hearing allows the prosecution to present evidence in hopes to keep the accused in custody. In the Canadian system, the state has all the expense of investigatio.

Company Overview

Institutional Affiliation: Rasmussen College
Founded in 2001, Global Inc. is one of the leading manufacturers of consumer electronics such as personal computers, smartphones, and household appliances among other products. As a limited liability company members are not liable for the organization’s liabilities or debts (Deering & Murphy, 2003). It has experienced growth currently with approximately 13, 500 workers and an annual revenue of $14 billion as of December 2017. Smartphones and personal computers form its major source of revenue which currently comprises 45% of all the revenues. Starting 2009, the company expanded to the international market and has since experienced a growing revenue due to the expanding market share. More so, due to benefits such as cheap and readily available labor, the organization moved some of its manufacturing processes to Indonesia, Bhutan and Hong Kong which has greatly impacted the operational cost enabling it to provide goods at competitive prices.
In 2016, the company faced issues related to labor management as it was established that some of its suppliers employ underage workers and also utilizes bonded labor. It has been an ethical issue faced by the organization whether it should cut ties with the suppliers and find other suppliers. The company did not have any policies that controlled labor management practices by the suppliers hence it was not likely for the organization to act with speed. On the other hand, in the established manufacturing plants in Asian countries, it emerged that some workers received wages lower than the minimum wages in the said countries. These have been the two major issues that have recently tarnished the organization’s public image. However, it has put efforts to turn around the situation and regain its previous public image.

Thesis Statement:
Criminal background checks help in determining a new employee’s behavior on the job, aids in identifying illegal immigration or harbored a fugitives, and acts as a societal norm.
Determining the behaviors of a new employee
One-way Criminal background checks helps employers is through acting as a guide in determining employee behavior before joining their task force. The character of an employee is a factor that should be considered before the employee is offered an opportunity to work for any organisation (Harris & Keller, 2005).
Hiring a criminal puts the security of the customers and employees at risk. Without past information about an employee, an organization is likely to employ a criminal. In this respect, a background check comes in place to make sure that the potential employee has no tarnished background.
Aids in illegal immigration or harboring a fugitive
Criminal background checks can also aid identifying illegal immigrants or harbored fugitives in workplaces. In the modern day, illegal immigration has become a norm in the society. Considering that the illegal immigrants are not citizens of the country, it is evident that any person cannot access their records. A criminal background check does not only help to know the previous criminal engagement activities of a person, but it also helps to know if a person is in the country's system or not.
Acts as a societal norm
Criminal background checks act as a social norm which can help in a nation’s economic growth. The productivity of its citizens dictates the economy of any nation. Ethics and productivity go hand in hand. When one is involved in criminal activities, it is evident that the level of his or her productivity can be questioned (Blumstein & Nakamura, 2009). It has become a norm for the society to try and look if one is associated with shady dealings in the past. The norm has been essential in two different ways. The first way is associated with the aspect of making sure that the people who are engaged in business activities are people with a good reputation and trustworthy (Harris & Keller, 2005). The second way is associated with the influence that the background check has on the members of the society. Most members of the society try as much as they can to avoid engaging in criminal activities because such can affect their future and that promotes a norm of avoiding and staying away from crime.

CRIME ANALYSIS TECHNOLOGY 2
Crime analysis is a function that usually involves the systemic analysis in identifying as well as analyzing the crime patterns and trends. Crime analysis is very important for law enforcement agencies as it helps law enforcers effectively deploy the available resources in a better and effective manner, which enables them to identify and apprehend suspects. Crime analysis is also very significant when it comes to arriving at solutions devised to come up with the right solution to solve the current crime problem and issues as well as coming up with the right prevention strategies. Since the year 2014, crime rates in the USA have increased steadily as per a study done by USAFacts, which is a non-partisan initiative (Osborne & Wernicke, 2013). With this increase in crime rates, which has majorly resulted in massive growth in technology, it is essential to come up with better means and ways of dealing with the increased crime rates. With the current advancement in technology, better law enforcement tools developed, which has enabled better crime deterrence in better and efficient ways. All this has been facilitated by the efforts of crime analysts who have come up with better tools and thus enabling the law enforcers to better deal with the crimes (Osborne & Wernicke, 2013). In this paper, I will consider the application of crime analysis technology and techniques in fighting crimes. Application of crime analysis technology and techniques used to make crime analysis more accurate and efficient.
Currently, the two technological tools that are used in predictive policing software have enabled security agencies to effectively use predictive policing ("Crime Analysis: Fighting Crime with Data," 2017). Application of this software has enabled better crime prevention as with data obtained in the previous crimes have been used to predict possible future severe crimes in a specific area.
Through the adoption and use of crime analysis, law enforcement agencies have been able to fight against crimes as when compared with the past effectively. The use of crime analysis comes at the right time, where there has been an increase in crime rates in the current digital error. In a survey done by Wynyard group in 2015, the study revealed that for every 10 law enforcement officials 9 of them believe that the use of current technology in crime analysis has had positive effects in helping the agencies in solving crimes as they can identify essential links and trends in crimes ("Crime Analysis: Fighting Crime with Data," 2017). In the same way, other sectors have benefited from data analysis with spreadsheets, databases, and mapping, law enforcers have been able to use data analysis to come up with a better decision.

CRIMINOLOGY USE OF COMPUTER APPLICATIONS 2
In the wake of technological advances, the use of computers has played a major role especially in criminal justice (Moriarty, (2017). This paper has focused on the use of computer application technologies in criminology and the potential it has in legal systems. From enabling easy access for witnesses to search for accused peoples’ photographs on the screen and go through the whole court procedural activities. Moreover, criminals’ records can be monitored using databases and it is easy to make a follow-up on crimes they have committed in the past and the charges against them. Forensics can also be conducted and investigations can now be carried out easily and very fast. Also, when one is linked to cases, they can be easily identified using forensics and fingerprints. Portable laptops have also helped police officers in getting information and any important details related to a crime at any place without having to go back to their working stations. James (2017), argues that unlike in the past, investigations are done faster due to internet connections and ease of communication between community members and investigative officers through the use of phone gadgets.
Computers have broad variance in usage which has been enhanced by computer applications. For instance, massive record keeping systems have relied for reference on criminal accounts, case records and unresolved warranties. Incorporation of technology in criminology has just made the career easy and also improved livelihoods. Many police units now use computerized applications to keep up with the ever-rising crimes. There are different applications being used nowadays, from mobile technology, to use in-car computers, CCTV camera installations and also software such as the Computer Aided Dispatch. Investigators often use programmed record management systems to monitor information they obtain and guard it properly. With the current technology, it is possible to detect impending crimes, track stolen goods and the culprits, tell which time a crime occurred and also who committed it and where.
Computer applications:
1. In-Car Computer installations in police cars.
Blumstein (2018), contends that this application that allows traffic patrol police to effectively carry out their activities especially when vehicles violate traffic rules. In the current world, things are drifting toward being more computerized than handwritten (Maxfield & Babbie, 2014). Thus event arrest reports are being typed. It also means that after traffic references are written down, they are generated by the computers installed duplicating a copy to the person who breaks the rules. This is seen to reduce paperwork and improve the efficiency of police officers' work.
2. Computer Aided Dispatch

Critical Analysis of the Whistleblower incentives and protection: Are a way of applying investment banking incentives to control management unethical and illegal practices
Introduction
Whistleblower incentives and protection refers to the monetary reward as well as protection which the United States Government offers to the individuals who exposes certain wrongdoings in the community more especially in government institutions. The Federal law requires the government to reward the whistleblowers a certain percentage of money that is recovered following their tips of exposing the wrongdoing acts. This percentage may go up to 30 percent of the total recovered money. In this paper, I will critically analyze whether Whistleblower Incentives and Protection are ways of applying investment banking incentives to control management unethical and illegal practices. And maybe are the whistleblowers rewarded accordingly in terms of security and money.
Problem Statement
What happened?? This is not anything like what was approved or what was in the white paper. Follow the instructions and make a paragraph out of the bullet outline problem
The Problem statement, which will be addressed in this paper, is that, whistle blowers are not given adequate incentives and protection resulting in the difficulty of reporting wrongdoing, misconduct and unethical behaviors. According to Andon, et al., (2018), Lack of whistle blower incentives and protection makes it difficult for whistle blowers to report wrongdoing, as they feel insecure. “The current whistle blowing system is not effective and therefore does not provide the basis for investigation of corruption cases and any misconduct within a company (Ballan, 2017). In support of Ballan’s views on the whistle blowing system, Keith, Todd & Oliver, (2016) indicated that the managers aren’t empowered to sanction employees involved in unethical behaviors because of lack of whistle blower incentives which are reinforced by the Federal laws.
Specifically, failure of finance department to offer adequate whistleblowers incentives as well as protection within the investment – banking sector in the United States. As per Keith, Todd & Oliver, (2016), in their recent research, they recommended that the finance department in any organization is a very critical area that can determine the overall performance of an organization. Failure to provide whistleblower incentives and protection to finance staff makes it difficult for them to report unethical behaviors.

Conceptual Framework
The theoretical basis that led to the research was an increased number of injuries resulting from pressure ulcers, and this led to the need for having a study to find the ways that were effective for preventing such occurrences.
The theoretical framework that led to this study was that pressure ulcers have become a major challenge and a challenging goal when it came to providing healthcare for pressure ulcer patients. Therefore, it led to the need to have a study that could deal with the challenge.
The theoretical framework that necessitated this research was the incidence of pressure ulcers that were increasing because of the poor and aging population as well as the elderly that were living with incidences of disability.
Pressure ulcers were highly associated with significant mortality and morbidity and high costs of healthcare services, and this led to the need for a study to review the situation.

Introduction
Plato’s allegory of the cave is a notion about human perception. Plato argued that knowledge acquired through the senses is just an opinion but for one to acquire knowledge then it must be through philosophical cognitive. Plato gives an analogy of the prisoners tied to some rocks in a cave since they were born. They cannot see anything except shadows of objects carried by people walking in the walkway. Since the prisoners had not seen the real objects ever since they were born, they believe that these shadows are real. Fortunately, one prison escapes from the cave and meets the real world and recognizes that his perception of reality was mistaken. He goes back to the cave and informs the other prisoners what he found. Unfortunately, they don’t believe him (Alam 5).
Overview of Gogol’s Overcoat and Lahiri’s Namesake
The overcoat is a story written by Nikolai Gogol about Akaky Akakievich, an underprivileged government clerk in Russia. Though he is devoted to his work, his hard work goes unrecognized by his colleagues who joke about his overcoat. When his overcoat is worn out he decides to get it fixed but his tailor advises him to get a new one because the old one was beyond repair. His tailor finally makes a new coat for Akaky which makes his colleagues celebrate him by throwing a party for him. His coat does not last long because it is stolen and Akaky’s efforts to get it back do not bear fruit. He dies of fever (Yilmaz 195).
Namesake is a story about Indian immigrants who settle in the US. Soon after, they get a baby boy who is given a temporal pet name by his father: Gogol. When he starts kindergarten Gogol is given his good name, Nikhil, which he rejects and clings to his pet name. But when he grows up Gogol knows the meaning of his name and starts to despise it. At the age of eighteen, he changes his legal name to Nikhil. He becomes acculturated and adopts the American way of life. That way he feels comfortable around his friends and especially the girlfriend. It was after his father’s death that he knew the true meaning of his name and changed it again to Gogol (Jaya 158).
The relevance of Plato’s Allegory of the cave on Gogol’s ‘Overcoat’ and Lahiri’s ‘Namesake’
The most significant insinuation of these stories is how the two main characters change their identity. Both of them were not named after they were born. Coincidentally, their fathers picked their names for them. As the writers of these two stories put it, these two characters could not be given any other names. These two characters are comfortable with their identities just like the prisoners in the cave (Ledbetter 130).
Akaky is afraid of changing his old ways of doing things. He was seen in the same position and place with the same uniform, his overcoat, and this made his supervisors believe that he was born as a r.

As far as the definition to my words is concerned, metacommunication can be defined as all nonverbal cues experienced by different people. Some of the metacommunications experienced by people include; tone of voice, gestures, facial expression and body language. On matters related to the facial expression, it can be used to show the feelings of the people involved in an incident. However, different people should be encouraged to understand the use of the metacommunication in ensuring that the society is able to operate in an effective manner. Again, gestures can be used in ensuring that communication is enhanced amongst different people. The use of gestures plays important roles in ensuring that different ideas are shared in the best way possible (Hazari, 2019).
On the other hand, evaluative communication can be used for the purposes of causing defensiveness by ensuring that judgment is passed. It is through that whereby majority of the people are enabled to focus on the problem experienced hence making it easy for the right solution to be found. The ability of people to focus on the problem can be used in ensuring that the required solution is identified therefore reducing the issues experienced by the people. However, majority of people should be encouraged to engage in evaluative communication for the purposes of ensuring that the solution to the issues experienced is found (Ma, 2020).

My first term I chose is matrilocal family. However, matrilocal family is a family whereby the husband goes to live with the family of the wife. This is a culture which allows the man to move to live with the mother and the father in law. As a result, the man is required to change his social life their living according to the cultures of the parents in law (Brown, 2020).
As far as the episode is concerned, the man had to go and hence live with the female’s family. It is through that whereby the man was required to change his lifestyle and hence adapt the live from the female’s family. Moreover, when not controlled, matrilocal family might end up bringing about conflicts amongst the people and their care has to be taken so as to ensure that the cases of misunderstanding are not experienced.
On the other hand, conjugal family is the other term which should be considered in different aspects. However, this is a term in which the marred coup.

Introduction
In this paper, I will argue that “Intimate Partner” is used to represent any inclusive romantic or sexual relationship between two non-biologically-related people. Ideally, these kinds of relationships show lots of love and support for each other. Unfortunately, some people do not act like the ideal condition and abuse their partners cause considerable emotional or physical pain and injury (Belknap, Chu, & Deprince, 2012). Sometimes abusing behavior brings violence and makes the worse situation ever. Different type of abuses such as emotional abuse, economic abuse, social isolation, physical abuses takes place in case of creating intimate partner violence. Sometimes some people start to stalk their partners with generating a different motive such as anger, hostility, paranoia, and delusion towards their partners (Belknap, Chu, & Deprince, 2012). One partner verbally threats his/her partner through using emails, text messaging, and social network Internet sites. In 2012, 4th February, a 21-year-old California boyfriend had bound legs of his girlfriend with tape and threatened her with pointing a gun towards her and beaten her, and kept her for nine days. This situation occurred as the girl received a text message from another man on her cellphone (Belknap, Chu, & Deprince, 2012). It is clear that technology can lead to intimate partner abuse. In this paper, I will argue that technology in terms of electronic devices can be used as the trigger for more intimate partner violent abuse. Comment by Sarah McMahon: I would suggest having someone review your writing to help improve your ability to convey your ideas. Comment by Sarah McMahon: I am wondering what this means- different from what? From IPV? It seems to me that it is a similar motive so I am unclear. Comment by Sarah McMahon: The purpose of this assignment is: “Develop an argument that compares these types of violence in a specific way(s), such as the root causes, the impact on victims, society's perception of the crime, or our response to the crime. How are they similar or different?” I am not sure your thesis answers that question?
Causes and Impact of Intimate Partner Violence and Stalking and Electronic Abuse
These days, out of ten women, one lady murdered or badly injured by her intimate partner. Life threatening matters are the most common factor which can create physical violence among intimate partners. Comment by Sarah McMahon: This is not a full sentence. I would suggest having someone proofread your paper as I suggested last time. Comment by Sarah McMahon: I am unclear on what this means.

Counselor Ethics and Responsibilities
To be a successful counselor and abide within the ethical and legal guidelines, counselors must take into consideration what is involved in providing sound and ethical judgements. Being a counselor should not be taken lightly, someone is trusting us to provide them with the best care possible and assist in finding solutions that will possibly work for the betterment of their livelihood. Counselors must ensure that their clients confidentiality will not be misused and counselor’s guarantee that appropriate measures are in place to provide a professional, safe, nonjudgmental environment.
Client Rights
Principles of Ethical Practice
There are five key principles of ethical practices, and Davis and Miller (2014), references Kitchener (2000) models on the following five principles:
a.) Autonomy addresses the concept of independence. Counselors should make sure they are not pushing their own values and beliefs onto clients, but rather encourage them to make their own decisions and act within their values. He/She would ensure clients fully understand how their differences may affect others whether positive or negative. He/She would also ensure they are competent to understand the choices they are making are theirs without any other influences. Clients who are children or persons with mental limitations, he/she need to make sure they have a well-informed, competent adult making decisions in their best interest.
b.) Nonmaleficence is the concept of not causing harm to others. Professionals should ensure clients are positively engaged during sessions and are not misconstruing information given to them.
c.) Beneficence shows the responsibility of the counselor contributing to the safety of the client. Incorporate positive outlooks and thinking in sessions. Periodically asking clients about their feelings, depending on the circumstances to make sure they have no intentions on harming themselves and be proactive when necessary.
d.) Justice in counseling means “treating equals equally and unequals unequally” (Davis & Walker, 2016). If I am providing services to two clients who are depressed. One is depressed and suicidal and the other client is not, more attention would be devoted to the client who is suicidal, and the proper steps would be taken to ensure the client does no harm to himself.
e.) Fidelity includes being, loyal, faithful and committed. Maintaining and having trust within the client-counselor relationship is crucial to successful progress, once that trust is broken, the client may leave and seek treatment elsewhere, or worse harm themselves or others. Clients need to be able to talk to about their feelings no matter how bad they think their situation is.

Northwest Valley Community College has a culture of providing the best learning environment to its students and ensuring that school staff communicate effectively without experiencing unauthorized access to their data and information. Also, its culture is ingrained in ensuring its students are working in an environment that is healthy and safe. The management of Northwest Community understands the importance of having a healthy learning environment and effective communication network inside and outside the school premises. As such, Kelsey Elementary school is setting up measures to implement a detailed communication training plan for staff and students to gain information safety skills.
This plan will be developed by a strategic communication team selected by the school. This plan will be designed in a way that it provides a framework to manage and coordinate communication among the students, instructors and parents. The plan will identify efficient communication channels, standards, appropriate audience, and frequency. This plan will require a shared responsibility among management, students, communication team and students. After the implementation of this communication plan, the team will measure its effectiveness to ensure it meets the expected objectives and goals.
Needs and Tasks Analysis
Northwest Valley Community Collwgw communication team will conduct a needs and analysis task to determine the training needs. The management will be able to know who needs the training and the kind of training required. The following are the steps the company will use to conduct training needs analysis.
· Organizational Analysis: The school management should work with the teachers to identify the priorities of student training. In this case, the management will conduct an evaluation to ensure the training goes hand-in-hand with the school’s goals and objectives.
· Secondly, the management will list specific types of communication channels to be utilized within the school environment. Also, they will specify the skills and competencies needed by employees to ensure they clearly understand how to utilize these communication channels. By doing this, they will have a solid foundation on who should conduct the training and how it should be conducted. (Liaw, 2014)
· The last step will involve the identification of staff members who need to undergo communication training. However, since it is a learning institution, every staff member and students will be subject to training.
Research Technique
Northwest Valley management has decided to implement an external training program to address the training plan. Therefore, they need to identify and understand the organization’s communication training needs. As such, they should start by hiring an e.

Abstract
The homeless population in communities across the United States is vulnerable to physical and mental illnesses, largely due to a lack of medical treatment resources and harsh environmental conditions. Rehabilitation centers and programs aimed at closing the gap between this population’s lack of resources and medical needs can help address many of the problems this population faces. Social programs aimed at reducing homelessness or intervening in the lives of homeless populations do not necessarily extend beyond providing food, shelter, and a means to economically transition from being homeless to being a non-homeless member of society. Mental illness is one of the barriers to economic sustainability and sustenance that have been recorded in this population. The aim of the proposed program is to offer a means of treatment for this population, using a sample size of 20. Another vital aim of the program is to examine the correlation between the homeless population, their environmental circumstances, and mental illness. It is the program leaders’ hope that the program’s analyzation of the data will lead to new intervention, treatment methods, and deep understanding of how mental illness plays a role in homelessness.

To Whom It May Concern,
An estimated 500,000 individuals are homeless in our community and are at risk of developing serious, uncontrollable health issues (Rogers, 2018). Our grant proposal’s main objective is to improve the well-being of the homeless population within our community. Besides physical ailments and diseases that may impact the homeless population, mental health issues and challenges will need to be addressed as part of this proposal. Specifically, our project seeks to reduce the prevalence of drug addiction and substance abuse amongst the homeless.
Utilizing a case study research design, our project will aim to analyze data pertaining to the relationship(s) between our community’s homeless population and drug addiction/substance abuse. A sample size of 20 will be selected from the Homeless Health Education Group. The projected timeline for the project is three years. It will focus on providing psychiatric intervention, reduce health problems, and provide mental health care. A rehabilitation center will be established to meet these objectives. Technology assets will be necessary to enhance efficiency and collect data reports from the 20 members of the sample population (Gitilin & Lyons, 2014; Marchewka, 2014).
Management and oversight will need to be incorporated into the proposal to ensure the project achieves its mission (Burke, 2013). The project’s projected budget expenditures total $1.638 million and its projected revenues total approx.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).

DOES MEDIA REFLECT CULTURE OR DOES IT CREATE
CULTURE?
Both media and culture are connected and they are inseparable.
Various levels of understanding influence the contents of the
media; on the other hand, platforms and contents of the media
2. have a big impact on the day to day and cultural practices. One
of the practices influenced by the media is the health-related
decisions of individuals (Georgiou, 2017). Therefore, media has
measurable effects which come as a result of the messages given
by the media. We can, therefore, say that media both reflects
society and shapes the culture.
Media reflect culture
Taking legacy media for instance, for a magazine dealing with
fashion, in determining what ladies should and should not dress,
they need first of all to mirror the present-day society so that
they will be able to establish what the women want. Without
doing this, the magazine will be nothing than common sense
within a typical mind of the woman. This, therefore, means that
the media has to establish certain things to do or not do which
means they are reflecting the society (Berger, 2017).
Secondly, Legacy media depend more on society than society
depends on them. Even if without the mass media the society
would struggle getting news broadcast and entertainment, the
society will still be alive but without the society, the media will
not be there. They, therefore, have to reflect what the culture of
the society wants.
For instance, there is this radio show which conducted a
publicity stunt which shocked the audience, what followed was
unanimous public reactions of condemnation from the public.
The culprits engineered the stunt which was to push the
boundaries of acceptable decency, but the reactions of
condemnation caught them by surprise. This is simply because
they failed to realize that society is much more conservative
than they expected. The stunt itself as something of a mirror,
but the society did not like what they saw. They believed that
the stunt crossed the lie and the society cried out. The line that
marks out the acceptable and unacceptable things is still clear to
society, and the media just reflects it.
Media create culture
In another sense, the media pushes the boundaries of values,
therefore, contributing to the shaping of the culture. The media
3. is capable of controlling a whole nation if the media barons or
political parties manipulate it (Fiske, & Hancock, 2016). The
media sometimes cannot be trusted in giving out facts without
slanting them in one specific direction of interpretation. The
reporting offered is based on some hidden agendas as they try
shaping the people’s thinking, beliefs, and behaviors.
Everything that is reported on TV news or appears on
newspapers does not necessarily mean that all facts have been
given out about that particular story.
Another way that media has shaped our culture is through media
sexism which is constantly referenced to in almost every
advertisement made. These advertisements perceive a woman as
inferior to men, the women; on the other hand, replicate the
image created by the media. Men have also been pressured into
fitting into the image of masculinity through various
advertisements such as those of health and fitness.
Lastly, the media has caused people to change their way of
dressing, speaking, as well as their overall look so that they can
represent their role models of choice. The reasons for doing this
are to impress friends and strangers as well.
In conclusion, I have a feeling that media reflects upon the
society in the determination of how it shapes certain parts of it.
the whole society is not shaped by the media but rather most are
affected making them change the way they act, speak or dress as
part of their lie.

Health informatics
Health informatics refers to the medical field that focuses on
data processing, therapeutic activities communication, research,
and study. There have been advancements in the recent past that
have contributed a great deal to health informatics. Among the
improvements is the technological growth in the medical field
5. (Nelson & Staggers, 2018).
The health informatics field emerged as a result of computer
technology advancements especially when it involved managing
huge amounts of data. It led to innovation of the first electronic
medical record soon after the new-fangled nomenclature for
specified areas of study of biological information. With further
advancements, health informatics increased the global standards
with a variety of medical formats to the point that clinical
information systems professionals were challenged in attaining
interoperability between the formats (Nelson.et.al, 2018).
According to the recent health technological trends, there is
integration between client health informatics and information
technology as shares of the contemporary thought of community
well-being and policies related to public healthcare. Patients are
also adapting and using current systems, aimed at healthcare
experts, at home. Electronic medical records of the patients are
also accessible to the patients, which is useful in empowering
the patients. Medical experts are also able to intervene
whenever patients need help in making informed decisions, by
the use of software designed for computer-based decision aids.
Due to the positive impacts that information technological
advancements have had on health informatics, there is
subsequent development of many initiatives with the intention
of improving the value of healthiness info. The efforts focus on
patient education, encouragement of self-classification, and
self-control of healthcare workers. It helps in the evaluation and
rating of data and therefore enhances enforcement of
compliance with the criterion.
Advancements within health informatics field have enabled
reduction of treatment costs. Through the use of computers,
clients can make informed choices regarding their health and
therefore do not have to see a healthcare expert. It gets
attributed to increased access to interactive data that can easily
be made available to clients through the use of internet and
other related technologies, which coincides with the desire of
many clients to be responsible for their healthiness. The
6. changes could also get attributed to the emphasis on the health
of the population and even preventive measures of various
ailments (myPHR, 2016).
Advancement in information technology has enabled easy access
to health records to clients. The primary purpose of health
informatics is to empower clients by making their health records
more accessible to them, comprising of their medical service
activities such as diagnosis, results, individual risk factors as
well as prescribed drugs. Use of information technology has
expanded the means through which clients can access their
health records. It could be over the internet, implementation of
smart cards, or even implementation of both. The use of
smartcards goes further to protect patient’s data security by
ensuring private access to patients’ health information
(Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society,
2016).
Also, electronic record keeping has played a significant role in
tailoring health information to patients. Through the use of the
internet, it is possible for any patient to link their health data
with knowledge attained from other databases and websites such
as Medline. With the advancements that have come up, it is
possible for any patient to access information regarding their
medical trends through their phones and computers. The tailored
information is essential even during instigation of changes as
far as health mannerisms, and knowledge increment is
concerned.
Computer-based applications have also helped the clinicians in
integrating their clients’ preferences with scientific evidence,
their history as well as local constraints. The applications are
also helpful to clients while making decisions regarding
treatment or screening based on their first choice for diverse
results. The decision aids are desirable even more in a situation
when the optimum administration policy hangs on the strong
suit of the client’s preferences for the diverse healthcare results
that could get obtained from the choice.
The improvement in information technology assists a great deal
7. in controlling the value of healthcare info through the internet.
There are four mainstays on which quality control lies on the
web: encouragement of self-control of healthcare experts,
patients’ training, evaluation of health data by third parties, and
enforcement of sanctions when there is the dissemination of
fraud. There are significant advancements in all the pillars that
have come up in the recent past. Currently, there is an
undergoing project that aims at establishing an institution that
permits people, societies, associations, and organizations to
measure the value of published healthcare data that is available
online through the use of standardized vocabulary. The project
is known as medCERTAIN. It also aims at creating various
stages of authorization for healthcare experts who broadcast
online health data via the internet. The steps will vary from the
simplest of ethical standards to that of the best rules
(AHIMAonDEMAND, 2010).
Although the technological advancements have a significant
impact on the reduction of the knowledge difference between
medical experts and patients, it has also created a vast
difference between those who can easily access the internet and
computer and those who cannot (HealthIT, 2016). For this
reason, I believe that technological advancements will have a
long-term effect on society. Those who can easily access online
data will be at an advantage. However, those who cannot access
it will be left uninformed and somehow ignored in the society.
One issue that could be helped by informatics is the use of the
advancements to discover new types of medicines that could
help in curbing the main killer diseases such as HIV/AIDS and
cancer. Different machinery should get invented to formulate a
cure to such diseases.
I believe that technological advancements have more positive
impacts as far as health informatics are concerned that the
adverse effects, even though they could bring about the
knowledge gap between the haves and the have-nots. More
improvements will, therefore, be recommendable.

boundaries of acceptable decency, but the reactions of
condemnation caught them by surprise. This is simply because
they failed to realize that society is much more conservative
than they expected. The stunt itself as something of a mirror,
but the society did not like what they saw. They believed that
the stunt crossed the lie and the society cried out. The line that
marks out the acceptable and unacceptable things is still clear to
society, and the media just reflects it.
Media create culture
In another sense, the media pushes the boundaries of values,
therefore, contributing to the shaping of the culture. The media
is capable of controlling a whole nation if the media barons or
political parties manipulate it (Fiske, & Hancock, 2016). The
media sometimes cannot be trusted in giving out facts without
slanting them in one specific direction of interpretation. The
reporting offered is based on some hidden agendas as they try
shaping the people’s thinking, beliefs, and behaviors.
Everything that is reported on TV news or appears on
newspapers does not necessarily mean that all facts have been
given out about that particular story.
Another way that media has shaped our culture is through media
sexism which is constantly referenced to in almost every
advertisement made. These advertisements perceive a woman as
inferior to men, the women; on the other hand, replicate the
image created by the media. Men have also been pressured into
fitting into the image of masculinity through various
advertisements such as those of health and fitness.
Lastly, the media has caused people to change their way of
dressing, speaking, as well as their overall look so that they can
represent their role models of choice. The reasons for doing this
11. are to impress friends and strangers as well.
In conclusion, I have a feeling that media reflects upon the
society in the determination of how it shapes certain parts of it.
the whole society is not shaped by the media but rather most are
affected making them change the way they act, speak or dress as
part of their lie.
