• Chemical exposures and disease outcomes
• Diet and obesity

2. Using a reliable data source (e.g. CDC, EPA (Links to an external site.), BRFSS (Links to an external site.), USDA, RAIS (Links to an external site.)) download any disease (cancer, cardiovascular disease, asthma) related data for 5-10 years and show a trend in (a graph or table) of increase or decrease in a US state or county of your choice. (Cite the source). Explore this EPA (Links to an external site.) site as well to check the important databases.

3. Using the following website, https://www.epa.gov/research (Links to an external site.) identify 2-software tools and describe in 3-5 sentences their utility in risk assessment process.

Part One

Read the “Analyzing Cognitive and Educational Evaluation Report” provided for student Adam Gallery. Based on the report, create a table with a row for each assessment. Clearly identify each assessment. In the first column, provide a summary of the results that will help guide appropriate educational decisions. (Do not simply cut and paste the findings.) In the next column, describe how each assessment is technically sound and minimizes rater bias. In the last column, explain why the selected assessment tool is appropriate for this student.

Part Two

In a 500-750-word analysis, advocate for the appropriate educational decisions for this student based on the assessment results, including recommendations on accommodations, modifications, and placement.

Part Three

Using the “Analyzing Cognitive and Educational Evaluation Report,” compose a 250-500-word script for seeking consent for special education services from Adam’s parents. Your script should include a hypothetical conversation with the parents where results of the MET report appropriately relayed.

Imagine that you work for a local chamber of commerce as a research assistant. Your supervisor is concerned about the gendered wage gap your organization is not closing, and the added dimension of race appears to further impact these gaps. You have been charged with conducting research and possible solutions to the issue and your supervisor has asked you to analyze data on educational achievement, income, health statistics, family dynamics, and economic security. A good place to start finding data regarding this issue is the Stanford Center on Poverty and Inequality (Links to an external site.) website. In addition, you have been asked to review data related to the wage gap that can often be attributed to higher paid positions (like CEOs) being occupied by more men than women or more whites than people of color.

Instructions:

• Write a 3-4-page report for your imagined supervisor —or about 1500 words—not including the title and reference pages, which are required.

ASSIGNMENT:

Since your graduation from AIU, you have been working as the
victims’ assistant advocate for the office of the local county prosecutor. You
have a great working relationship with the prosecutor, Mary, and the remainder
of the office. Normally, when you speak, the staff and prosecutor know you are
speaking from a knowledge base that you have gained from personal experience,
research, and reading, so they know that your comments are facts. You like to
use APA format to cite your sources, but this bulleted paper does not need to
be in APA format.

You have decided to speak with the prosecutor, Mary, on behalf
of Maureen, the college student who was a victim of date rape. You want to
convince Mary to support a change in the prosecutor’s policy of not prosecuting
date rape cases when drugs or alcohol are involved. Maureen has a strict
policy: when someone wants to speak with her about changing an established
policy, she wants the person to submit a paper of 3–5 pages containing topic
bullets outlining his or her argument for the policy change prior to meeting
her. She feels this way, she is not blind-sided, and she has an opportunity to
research the topic prior to the meeting.

You follow her policy and write a paper using bullets only,
hoping that you can persuade Mary and the chief prosecutor to change their
policy or, at a minimum, meet with you for a discussion about changing the
policy. Maureen knows other young women are being attacked and that very often,
date rape drugs are being used.

Mary has agreed to review your policy change letter if you write
it. You write the policy change paper in which where you have the
following two goals:

• Educate Mary about date
  rape using statistics and information about date rape and date rape drugs
  to show her that Maureen is one of the types of victims who perpetrators
  take advantage of in these situations.
• Explain why not
  prosecuting the cases is the wrong public and social policy. Of course,
  you are also hopeful that the victim, Maureen, also receives help in her
  case.

To organize your efforts before your meeting, create a detailed
outline in bullet form that contains information for the following 5 topics:

• List Uniform Crime
  Reporting (UCR) and the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS)
  reported crime statistics relating to rape and the strengths and
  weaknesses of each type of reporting.
• Define the term date
  rape (or acquaintance rape—the terms are
  interchangeable) and how date rape (acquaintance rape) is distinguished
  from stranger rape, statutory rape, and spousal rape.
• List the types and uses of
  date rape drugs.
• Describe the victim–offender
  relationship, including the following:
  • How victims are viewed by
    perpetrators of date rape
  • The special problems of
    date rape prosecutions
  • How society and jurors
    may view date rape (blaming the victim based on the perceived
    precipitation, facilitation, or provocation of the victim)
• What is your position on
  this issue, and what action do you think would impact this social policy?

Use the library, Internet, and other resources available to you
to conduct your research.
