Informed Consent Letter

Procedure section is clear, described in detail, specific, and all inclusive. Written in lay language (as documented by reading level score). Includes risks and benefits relevant to study. Address assent (if applicable).

Now that you have had the opportunity to address your current global region, identify your new global region, and gain feedback from your instructor to polish those parts of your presentation, you are ready to narrow your focus really hone in on your new locale. An entire region may be too large to describe in detail for your final project presentation, so narrowing the focus to a particular city or area of a country will allow for deeper exploration of the Themes of Geography that make up your region. For this milestone activity, complete the worksheet with additional presentation speaker notes that you will use for your final project presentation and continue drafting your presentation slides.

Before starting this activity, review the following documents, Milestone Two Speaker Notes Student Example, GEO 200 Milestone Two Worksheet Student Example, MIlestone Two Slides Student Example within the Student Example Folder.

Download and address the questions in the Milestone Two worksheet and submit the file along with a draft of your final project presentation slides.

To complete this assignment, review the Milestone Two Worksheet Guidelines and Rubric document.

Instructions

Choose and Read any 2 of the following (2 documents from the same collection are acceptable):

• Documents and Artifacts from Shays’ Rebellion 1786-87:
  http://shaysrebellion.stcc.edu/shaysapp/artifacts/home.do
  
• Any of the Early American primary sources from the 18th century:
• http://www.americanjourneys.org/texts.asp
• Any of the 18th century documents on the University of Houston’s Digital History site: You will notice that these overlap from chapter to chapter:
  http://www.digitalhistory.uh.edu/era.cfm?eraID=2&smtID=3
• Any of the Canadian sources on the Fur Trade:
  http://www.furtradestories.ca/sub_category.cfm?cat_id=2&sub_cat_id=1
• Any of the Louisiana Purchase primary sources from the Library of Congress:
  https://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/Louisiana.html

Write a 500 word essay citing the primary sources and Hine & Faragher at least 5 times. Cite at least two primary sourcesand Hine & Faragher. In your essay, think back to the readings from Hine & Faragher. The Primary Source essay is less formal than the Textbook Essay. You have some freedom with the Primary Source essay in that you may write in the first person if you would like. You may choose to write in a reflective manner as well. Think along these lines:

• Where do the primary sources help you understand the Hine & Faragher text better?
• How do the primary sources help you understand the people who wrote them?
• How do the primary sources fit with what you understood of the History of this period before reading the sources?
• Do they support what you have long thought regarding the period?
• Do they challenge your views of the period?
• Do they make you aware of things you had never heard of?
• What surprises you in the primary sources?

Conversely, you may write in a scientific fashion, thinking along these lines:

• Who are the authors?
• What are the authors’ arguments?
• What are the authors’ audiences?
• Why did the authors produce the sources? What is going on in their worlds to prompt the sources’ production?
• What were the primary sources’ effects on the world?
• Why do the primary sources matter?
• How do your primary sources bolster an argument in favor of one of your own theological, political, social, etc., theory
• How do your primary sources support or refute Hine & Faragher.

Identify your chosen primary sources clearly so that I can find them. If they are from an outside source, be sure to include a link at the bottom of the essay.

Citations can be simple parenthetical citations. I simply need to be able to find what you are citing. For example:

• (Hine & Faragher, 17)
• (de las Casas, A Short Account, 2)
• (Cortés, Letter)

If you are citing outside sources that I have not assigned, please provide a link at the bottom of the page, along with a title that matches the citation.

Always quote any words that are taken verbatim from Hine & Faragher or anyone else in order to prevent plagiarism. Citations gowithin the essay immediately after the sentence they support. Using the example from the Textbook Essay instructions, I might say:

• The Civil War had a dramatic effect on the West in many ways, including an outward migration of African Americans from the South. (Hine & Faragher, 370-373) For example, Hine & Faragher describe “yet another mass exodus to the western promised land” in 1879 when free black Americans moved to western lands. (Hine & Faragher, 370-371)

Remember:

• 500 words
• Cite the primary sources and Hine & Faragher at least 5 times.
• Cite at least 2 different primary sources, unless the instructions specifically state that one primary source will beenough.(This occasionally happens in lessons with longer primary sources.)
• Identify your chosen primary sources clearly so that I can find them.

Scenario:

You work as a psychology professional for a metropolitan police department. Your primary job is to screen police officers for employment and emotional stability. You make recommendations about their suitability for employment, conduct interviews with police officers to determine whether they should be referred for counseling, and monitor their performance by dialogues with their superiors. You are recognized for your skills as a clinician, and you are asked to participate with a team of interrogators so they may become more proficient in obtaining confessions from suspects.

Compare the relationship of a psychology professional working with a suspect as a client with the relationship of a psychology professional working as a consultant to an interrogator.

Tasks:

In a minimum of 300 words, respond to the following:

• Part 1: Differentiate between interviewing and interrogation. What are the goals of interviewing and interrogation? In what instances would a psychology professional be involved in an interrogation?
• Part 2: Identify a context and setting for a forensic psychology professional to be involved in an interrogation. What would be your concerns in taking on the role of or assisting that forensic psychology professional?
• Part 3: Review the current version of the APA ethics code and the APA resolution on interrogations and identify an ethical principle that potentially conflicts with psychology professionals participating in interrogation. Discuss your choice in relation to the context and setting you identified in Part 2.

Use the current version of the APA ethics code; choose elements of the ethical principles to explore issues, such as “do not harm,” “informed consent,” “use of assessment techniques by unqualified persons,” and “resolving ethics code conflicts in an organization.” Explore the following issues in the context of the scenario above:

• Who is a psychology professional’s client?
• With whom does a psychology professional have a professional relationship?
• Do psychology professionals have any professional (as opposed to “moral”) obligations to suspects?
