“Hello classmates,
When it comes to studying aphasia, the type of aphasia can be very helpful when it comes to tracking what part of the brain is affecting. For example, the symptoms of Sarah Scott in Byron Peterson show the differences that can be seen indifferent types of aphasia. By that I mean nonfluent aphasia versus fluent aphasia, the symptoms of both of these play a big role as to what particular part of the brain it affects. So, being that the Wernicke area part of the brain is the center for comprehension and planning words, so when you see symptoms such as being able to keep fluent word pattern, but sometimes the words seem to be incorrect or made-up, it is more probable that this is the area of the brain that is being affected. The Broca area part of the brain is more so located in the inferior frontal area of the brain, this area is more responsible for motor execution of speech and sentence formation. This being the case, when you meet someone who has nonfluent aphasia and see symptoms such as constant struggle to get words out in speaking in very short sentences it is more likely that this form of aphasia came from the Broca area of the brain (Le & Lui, 2023). In Sarah Scott’s case, we saw nonfluent aphasia and in Byron Peterson’s case we saw fluent aphasia. There was a case with a woman named Melba Ashburn who had a stroke at 79 years old unexpectedly. After she had her stroke, she had aphasia and as a treatment they had to start with reteaching her language like a first grader as she put it (Feelings After a Stroke – My Story – the National Aphasia Association, 2015). Through this process she had to relearn numbers and practice with numbers, she said when it came to her zip code, she would use that to practice. Also, when it came to her language she would have to write down members of her family to practice with, but eventually she was able to get the hang of it. Melba Had nonfluent aphasia, but through the treatment of having to constantly and consistently go to her therapist to help her with her speech she’s still keeps the mentality of there is a life after a stroke (Feelings After a Stroke – My Story – the National Aphasia Association, 2015).
Question: In your opinion do you believe aphasia is a common case amongst stroke survivors?

5.
Conduct research to locate, synthesize, and evaluate narrative and numerical information in print, electronic, and live formats.
You’ll also your display your grasp of the NACE career-readiness skills associated with “Critical Thinking”:
•
Make decisions and solve problems using sound, inclusive reasoning and judgment.
•

NACE Skills
understand a problem.
•
Accurately summarize and interpret data with an awareness of personal biases that may impact outcomes.
•
Effectively communicate actions and rationale, recognizing the diverse perspectives
and lived experiences of stakeholders.
You will have a choice regarding how (in what medium or modality) you demonstrate both of these skill sets. Depending on your learning style and preference, you may select one of the following three mediums: a tweet, dialogue, or images/charts. It doesn’t matter which medium you select as long as you follow the instructions carefully and attempt to demonstrate the skills outlined above. The Final Capstone Project grading rubric will be used to assess your work, so please read it carefully before you create your project. The length of your submission depends entirely on you. It’s quality, not length, that will determine your grade on the assignment.
An easy way to showcase your command of the NACE competency “Critical Thinking” would be to situate your response in the vocation for which you are preparing. For future nurses, a medical setting (say, a hospital) might be an appropriate context for a #MeToo tweet; for a business student, a dialogue on socially responsible investment decisions could focus on immigration reform; for a future teacher, a graphic presentation that illustrated pertinent data on gun violence in schools might be apt. The choice is yours. The idea is to show your peers how you would use specific critical thinking and problem-solving skills in the vocational field you’re planning on entering. Have fun and be creative! -
Title: Literature Review for Capstone Project Implementation Plan
In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. The ability to articulate research data and summarize relevant content supports the student’s ability to further develop and synthesize the assignments that constitute the components of the capstone project.
This assignment will be used to develop a written implementation plan.
For this assignment, provide a synopsis of the review of the research literature. Using the “Literature Evaluation Table,” determine the level and strength of the evidence for each of the eight research articles you have selected. The articles should be current (published within the past 5 years) and closely relate to the PICOT question developed earlier in this course. The articles may include quantitative research, descriptive analyses, longitudinal studies, or meta-analysis articles. A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project.
While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion. -

“Back of the Napkin: Communicating the Value Proposition for [Chosen Product/Service]”
As a marketing consultant, you have been asked by one of the following streaming service companies to provide a one-page memo, casually known in marketing as a “Back of the Napkin” concept. This memo will explain the value proposition from an outsider’s perspective. Consider the internal and external environment as well as the company’s competition to demonstrate your unique selling position. You will use 150 words or less to create a short memo to management and images to communicate your value proposition. At the bottom of your memo, you will include a “back of the napkin image” to illustrate your value proposition. This original illustration you create can be added as a picture within your document or using the Word document tools to create a visual aid. Your memo and illustration will display how your product or service solves a problem for the consumer. You do not have to be an artist. You will need an idea and the ability to summarize. You will submit a single page Word document with the memo and image along with a second reference page. The illustration must go inside the memo document so that only one file is submitted. Be sure that your proposition is clear and concise. Follow the instructions below. You will be using this value proposition to develop a message campaign later in the course. Instructions Step 1: Choose one of the following products or services in consumer markets. There are three category options from which you can choose. Choose just one from any category that interests you the most.
Streaming Services Category

·Present your value proposition ideas using 150 words or less and appropriate images of your choice. ·Sample Professional Memo: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/professional_technical_writing/memos/sample_memo.html Step 3: Format your submission to comply with these technical requirements. One page is the maximum length of the value proposition. If you are nearing the length maximum, but have more to convey, work on editing your submission for writing effectiveness. Your ideas and work must be original. You may not copy a value proposition from any source even if you cite that source. You may not reuse an assignment or example from this course, a prior course, or any other session of this course if you are retaking the course. Your submission must also include a reference list. The reference list is not part of the 150 words, and the reference list can be placed on a second page of the document. Cite to the product/service website and the sources for any images used on the reference list. This assignment does not require a cover page. See the rubric for grading guidelines.
