Define the Concept and Create Measures

In this assignment you will design, describe, and justify the method you will use in your Final Paper to generate and collect data in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the policy or

program you intend to evaluate. For guidance on the selection of the most logical, effective, and robust methodology, first look to the Rossi, Lipsey, and Freeman (2004) text or the Lipsey, Petrie,Weisburd, and Gottfredson (2006) article for the fundamental explanations and uses of various methodologies. Then, utilize your research skills to locate additional appropriate scholarly sources that focus on criminal justice or related topics to develop a workable, logical methodology. The methodology should be suitable for inclusion in presentation designed for a criminal justice professional setting. To streamline the process, you can simply peruse the articles posted in the Required Resources and Recommended Resources sections throughout the course in order to obtain a more pragmatic, or practical, approach to the uses of scientific methodologies in the world of evaluation. This assignment can later serve as the methodology section in your Final Paper if you so choose, so make certain to include any term that will be included in the evaluation. For additional guidance on determining evaluability, look to your Rossi, Lipsey, and Freeman (2004) text.

In your paper,

• Define the terms that will be used in your Final Paper. (For example, if you plan to evaluate whether a given police department policy reduces crime, you must define what you mean by the term crime.)
• Operationalize your concepts and terms that will ultimately be used in your Final Paper.
• Describe what you will evaluate in your Final Paper.
• Describe how you will determine the evaluability and measure the effectiveness of the policy or program you are evaluating.
• Address the impact of any political or ethical issues that might be associated with your measures.

Human Factors and Design
 

The human-centered approach is critical in clinical decision support system development, implementation, and utilization. Often the gap between developers and end users can affect clinical outcomes. Input from the end users during the design stage is essential in assuring positive health outcomes for patients. Using the case study on pages 104-108 in Chapter 5 of the Health Informatics: A Systems Perspective text discuss the application of Project IMPACT in the clinical setting.  Explain how  the gap between developers and end      users effects outcomes Explain how you would change the design of the Clinical      Decision Support System to address the concerns of the clinicians in this      case study The IMPACT database relies on critical care nurses to      enter data into the system. An older nurse is struggling with inputting      the data due to her advanced arthritis. What recommendations would you      make to address the IMPACT user interface and ergonomics of the workplace      to address the nurses’ data entry issue? Design a new data input screen. Create a mock screen utilizing any of the Microsoft      products
