For this paper, you will select a specific injury you would like to learn more about. Using a minimum of three peer-reviewed references, you will discuss this injury in detail. You will include common mechanisms of injury, anatomy of the injury (which structures are involved), presenting signs/symptoms, diagnostic procedures and/or special tests, and the basic healing process, rehabilitation, or surgery that needs to be done in order for the athlete to return to play.

This paper will be a minimum of 5 pages in length not including the title page and reference page. The paper will be written in APA format.

Unit 3 discussion 1

Dementia Resources

This morning, your neighbor, Sandra, approached you and was clearly very upset. She said that her mother, who is 72, has just been diagnosed with dementia. Knowing that you are studying gerontology, she wondered if you could help her understand what this means and what she should expect. After offering your sympathy and encouragement, you tell her that you will do a little research and then send her an e-mail. For this discussion:

  • Compose the e-mail, giving Sandra an overview of dementia as well as pointing her toward some of the resources available.
  • Tell Sandra specifically about the two resources you explored earlier in this unit from the Alzheimer’s Resource Bank—what they contain, what she should know about using them, and what she will not find in them.
  • Integrate the resources you are providing to her with the information you understand about dementia.

write 500 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

The annotated bibliography is a cornerstone of academic research and allows students and policy analysts to understand the current state of knowledge about an issue before proposing policy alternatives.

  • How does an annotated bibliography prepare you to create an effective literature review?
  • If a policy analyst simply did an Internet search and gave policymakers some results about a policy issue, what would happen? What would be missing?
  • Using credible academic and government reference sources to build a literature review is crucial, but it can be challenging to write. How will you approach transitioning from the annotated bibliography to the literature review?
    • What are some common errors to avoid in writing a literature review?
