I need paraphrasing of the below paragraph

/in /by

Please someone do paraphrasing of the below paragraph.

An ecological view is a perspective that involves knowledge of the ecological model of determinants of health and an attempt to understand a specific problem or situation in terms of the model. This perspective helps direct attention to broader political and environmental factors that shape individual and interpersonal characteristics within community and organizational settings. In order to fully capture an ecological view of overweight and obesity in the U.S., it is important to describe the factors that influence people development of health behaviors and overweight and obesity status by the ecological level in which they most commonly exist for obese people.”

Analysis on Food Security

/in /by

The members of the United Nations found great value in the analysis you provided on the effects of global warming that result from population growth. They are now asking you write an additional analysis to include further issues related to population growth. Here is the issue they have asked you to consider:

The member states of the United Nations seek to build food systems that can provide global food security which will feed everyone, everywhere, every day by improving food quality though the promotion of effective and nutritional agricultural practices. The crucial issue is not the lack of food in the world but the access to that food. In many developing countries, food shortages are due to governmental control over food distribution. These governments maintain control of the population and their power by limiting access to nutritious food to certain groups. In this practice, they thereby “weaponize” food.

Your second project as a consultant for the United Nations is to develop an analysis that addresses three issues related to global food insecurity caused by global population growth and poverty, and to explore these issues in a developing country of your choosing.

The UN has given you the following guidelines.

Content

The UN has asked that your paper contain three sections. Each section should be one page (or approximately 300 words) in length and answer specific questions, identified in the outline below. It also asks that you use examples from your developing country when answering the questions.

Introduction

Provide an introduction of half a page minimum that addresses points a-e below.

      1. Explains the problem the UN has asked you to address in your own words;
      2. Identifies the three sections your paper will cover;
      3. Identifies the developing country you will consider;
      4. Tells the UN the causes of food insecurity; and
      5. Provides a one-sentence statement of your solutions at the end of your introduction paragraph.

Section I. Background

      1. What is food insecurity?
      2. What role does population growth play in food security?

Section II. Technologies That Can Reduce Hunger and Improve Food Security

      1. What forms of technology can be used to reduce hunger and improve food security?
      2. How would these technological solutions work?
      3. What causes of food insecurity do these technologies address?

Section III. Specific Factors in Chosen Developing Country

      1. Considering the causes of food insecurity, what factors interrupt the flow of food from the source to the people in the developing country you selected?

Conclusion

  • Provide a conclusion of half a page minimum that includes a summary of your findings that the United Nations can use to inform future policy decisions.

Success Tips

  • In answering each question, use examples from your developing country to illustrate your points.
  • The UN needs facts and objective analysis on which to base future policy decisions; avoid personal opinion and make sure your answers are based on information you find through research.

Formatting Requirements

  • Make sure your paper consists of four to six pages of content (or 1,200 words minimum, not including the cover or reference pages).
  • Create headings for each section of your paper as follows:
    • Section I. Background
    • Section II. Technologies That Can Reduce Hunger and Improve Food Security
    • Section III. Specific Factors in Chosen Developing Country
  • Use and cite at least five credible sources in your research. A list of potential resources is available below.
  • Make sure your paper contains both in-text citations and a source list, per SWS guidelines: Refer to the Strayer Writing Standards (SWS) document for reference.
  • Include a cover page with your name, the country you selected, the date you submitted the paper, and your instructor’s name.

Potential Sources

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is as follows:

  • Propose a plan to address the issue of global food security in underdeveloped countries that considers the impact of prior solutions.

What is innovation? Why should companies innovate?

Step 1:

For this task, you will begin to look for innovation all around you. You should use your Innovation Journal (found in Important Documents) to help you accomplish this task. First, download the Innovation Journal.

Step 2:

Second, find a product, service or process that you believe needs to be innovated. Then, sit in a common area and observe the product, service, or process. This may take place in your office, a coffee shop, or on a park bench. Begin to look at the world around you. Take notes of common problems people have. Is there a way to make these problems disappear with an innovative product or process?

                          • Research the company that currently owns the process or product.
                          • Observe people that use the product or process.
                          • Scrutinize the product or process.
                          • Observe the product or process in use.
                          • Research the creator of the product or process.
                          • Research the changes that the product or process has gone through.
                          • Determine why the product needs to change.

Step 3: Are you creative? Are you innovative? Can you become creative or innovative?

Think about a time you were creative. Take notes in your Innovation Journal about:

  • How did it feel? Where were you? How old were you?
  • Find a creative person and observe them.

  • What do they do to get into a creative mood? What do they create? Is it always a success?
  • Do something creative.
  • Think about what creativity and innovation have in common.

Step 4: Explore your passion

Think about your passion. Use these guiding questions to help you get started thinking about your passion. When you were growing up, what did you want to be? What encouraged you to be that? What stopped you? What are you passionate about? Research passionate companies. What does a passionate company look like?

Step 5: Explore Innovation

Look at some innovative companies. What makes them innovative?

Assignment

Passionately describe your creative side. You may use all notes from your Innovation Journal Notes to help you accomplish this task.

Describe a product, service or process and its attraction in the marketplace. Demonstrates why it is a positive move for the company and the expected effect. You may use all notes from your Innovation Journal Notes to help you accomplish this task.

Quotation Activity – Gettysburg Address (from Connect – Power of Process Activity)

It is important to be able to effectively incorporate your sources through direct quotation. For this activity, you will use Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address to practice writing an essay while effectively incorporating quotations to help support your discussion.

For this activity you will write a persuasive essay and address the following points:

  • What is a “proposition” in the sense that Lincoln uses it?
  • What does it mean to “consecrate” a place?
  • What is “hallow” ground?
  • The Gettysburg Address is short, but very famous. Why do you think Lincoln kept it so short?
  • He was the President, he could have spoken longer, and most speakers that day in fact spoke much longer speeches. He wasn’t pressed for time. He had time to prepare. A long speech was expected of him.
  • So, why did Lincoln do what he did? (Hint: Where was he speaking and why? How did his “rhetorical situation” influence him?)
  • Do you see any correlations between Douglas’ work to this work? If so, how do you see this occurring in the text? Be sure to quote from Douglas if you see a correlation.

Requirements:

  • Your written paper should be 2-3 pages in length not counting the required title and reference pages.
  • You must accurately insert a quote in your analysis to provide in-text evidence from the address, and you must comment on the quote to demonstrate you are thinking in a critical manner.
  • Your paper must be formatted according to APA Requirements.

Individual Reflection

/in /by

For this Individual Reflection you will identify and describe an innovation leader who has inspired you. This Individual Reflection will allow you to conduct a personal analysis of leadership qualities between you and an innovation leader to help you identify key leadership dimensions that you can develop.

Note: For the sake of clarity, be mindful during this Individual Reflection to focus on a leader that you admire who inspires innovation and not a leader who is innovative in terms of leadership style and characteristics.

For this Individual Reflection, describe a person who successfully brought together leadership, foresight, creativity, and innovation. This person should be someone with whom you have worked or who has inspired you in your professional career or personal life. (Note: You do not need to identify the individual by name, if he or she is someone you personally know). Be sure to include the following:

  • Part 1: Provide an opening section where you provide your assessment of the characteristics of this innovation leader that you currently do not possess or demonstrate that you would like to develop. Your own characteristics are the baseline in the analysis, and the innovation leader you identified is the model. If you are not currently in a leadership role, envision how you might develop these characteristics in a future position. Be sure to consider the following factors and questions:
    • Explain how this innovation leader supported a creative environment, and how they catalyzed, implemented, and promoted innovation in the organization.
    • Describe the leadership skills he or she used to foster creativity in successful ways.
    • How does the leader engage stakeholders (vendors, executives, board members, employees) in the innovative or creative process? For example, how does the leader conduct a stakeholder analysis?
  • Provide an inventory of leadership characteristics exhibited by this leader using the Leader Characteristic Inventory Handout document in this week’s Resources.
  • Part 2: Provide a self-assessment on the extent to which you have (or need to cultivate to be successful) the dimensions of leadership that foster creativity. For each of the following dimensions of leadership, assess how you currently display (or would display) the dimensions in your work and professional life. Provide a brief explanation of your self-assessment for each of the dimensions listed below. (Refer to “The Innovator’s DNA” for more details about each of these innovator dimensions):
    • Associating
    • Questioning
    • Experimenting
    • Observing
    • Networking
    • Cultivating New Thinking
    • Comfort with Change
    • Risk tolerance
    • Collaboration
  • Part 3: Aggregate your findings and provide a summary of the main lessons you have learned about yourself as a leader (present or aspiring) and what you may need to work on to achieve your identified dimensions. How important do you think it is that leaders possess these dimensions and which do you think are the most important to your future? Provide your rationale or examples to justify your answer.
