evaluate your progress in reflective practice over the course of the term and your previous jornal entries
The purpose of this reflective journal is self-reflection regarding the role in the process of self-reflection as a PMHNP provider. Through reflective practice, the student will evaluate their own emotional health and recognize one’s own feelings as well as one’s ability to monitor and manage those feelings. The point of the exercise is to learn yourself, your triggers, the types of cases you end up getting overly involved with, and those you’d rather refer to someone else. The idea is to be able to personally reflect on your behaviors/thoughts/decisions and how those impact you in the role of PMHNP.

Discussion
Stakeholder Engagement in Policy Development: Observations and Lessons from International Experience
Stakeholder engagement is a crucial concept in policy development –it usually determines the success of any policy development endeavor. Globally, it is becoming a widespread practice, especially in multicultural environments. The most obvious advantage of engaging stakeholders is the expertise that comes on board. By involving different players, the policy development process can take advantage of the skills and experiences of different players. The outcome would be policies that reflect the needs and concerns of those affected more comprehensively. Nevertheless, one must take caution to involve only relevant stakeholders.
It is also important to involve stakeholders for its own sake –that is, to create the impression that everyone is part of the process. It is common for stakeholders to disregard the merit of a policy, thereby rejecting it simply because they were not involved in the process (Burnes, 2015). Such participants can become stumbling blocks during the implementation phase of the policy development life cycle. As such, policy planners should consider involving them to minimize risks of rejection.
Although stakeholder engagement in policy development is a recommended approach, there are issues that participants must beware of. One of these challenges is the difficulty in reaching decisions. Typically, reaching an agreement becomes harder as the number of stakeholders increases. On the converse, it is easier to reach a final decision if there are only a few decision-makers involved. A high number of contributors can also affect the quality of the decision reached (Andriof & Waddock, 2017). Therefore, conveners of policy development agenda must ensure that all stakeholders invited to contribute have a specific role.
Other than due to slowed decision-making, why would one discourage stakeholder engagement in policy development?

I’m thinking of having myself as the lead on OpsLearn (OpsLearn is where I work at). That would include system administration and setup. You would also be a point of contact for the Training SMEs (subject matter experts) we hope to develop on all of the teams. You would coach them in doing what you’ve been doing with the PBS new hires. Another part would be testing courses and activities in OpsLearn. So when we need to publish modules to be used in an LMS, you will test them in OpsLearn to make sure they run and score correctly.
Then, here’s a whole bunch instructional design and development stuff that’s on our radar that everyone on the team will work on:
· We will need to update the Contact Center modules we have been working on and finalize for delivery. (I’m not sure if you will be involved in the rollout of this first deliverable.)
· Then we are going to start doing some reading and discussions as a team to learn about instructional design for game development for our next version of the Contact Center training (or anything smaller we can start on before that!).
· I know you have some ideas for interactions to develop in Captivate, like an interactive form where they have to click to select certain parts of a form.
· Many of the teams are looking online versions of mock processing exercises. We can create those with Captivate.
· We need to take ownership of the onboarding training program, so we will need to look at that as a curriculum and review that from an instructional design perspective
· I will need someone training as a graphics artist, but we still all need a certain proficiency with graphics and graphics applications such as Photoshop and SnagIt.
That should give you plenty of ideas! One thing I don’t see in the assignment description is what I typically see on resumes as “Skills.” These usually refer to things like Captivate, Instructional Design, Captivate, Photoshop, SnagIt, HTML coding, etc. Maybe these combined with proficiencies (like “Expert level Captivate,” “10 years’ Instructional Design experience,” etc. make up the qualifications…?
Delivering Effective Presentations
Delivering Effective Presentations
As a DNP-prepared nurse, you will likely encounter many different methods of disseminating the findings and implications of an evidence-based project. Each method has unique benefits. As discussed in this course, oral presentations can be an effective medium for delivering the findings of DNP projects.
For this Discussion, consider what makes an oral presentation effective. How might presentation approaches vary for an academic presentation versus a practice-based presentation?
To prepare:
- Review various forms of disseminating the findings of an evidence-based project, as well as strategies for delivering effective presentations in this week’s Learning Resources.
- If applicable, reflect on your experiences practicing with colleagues in a small group and presenting in other professional or academic situations. Conduct additional research as necessary to enhance your awareness of what makes a presentation most effective.
- Consider how the needs or dispositions of the intended audience may inform your presentation.
By tomorrow Wednesday 7/17, write a minimum of 550-word essay in APA format with at least three scholarly references that include the level one headers below:
Post a cohesive response that addresses the following:
1) Share three or more insights to presentation approaches.
2) Explain how this information may be used to promote the delivery of an effective DNP Project presentation. Be sure to note any considerations to the intended audience that are important.

Personality Tests and Analysis (Worth 30 points)
Module 10 Written Assignment: Personality Tests and Analysis (Worth 30 points)
Learning Objectives 3d and 4a
For this written assignment, you will explore your own personality by taking two *free* internet personality tests.
Overview of the Jung Typology Test
The first personality test is called the Jung Typology Test. This test measures four trait domains:
- How we interact with our world (the continuum with introversion on one side and extroversion on the other).
- How we process information (the continuum with sensing on one end and intuitive on the other). Sensors are data driven and those that “intuit” tend to see the “big picture.”
- How we make decisions (the continuum of thinking on one side and feeling on the other).
- How we plan our day (the continuum of judging on one side and perceiving on the other). Judging in this context means planned and structured, and perceiving in this context means free-flowing and flexible.
Step 1: Take the Jung Typology Test at the following link: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes1.htm.
Write a thoughtful one or two paragraph essay that addresses the following:
- Briefly summarize your personality test results. Do not copy/paste the results from the personality test; instead, summarize your results in your own words.
- Explain the ways in which you agree or disagree with the results. Next, think of someone that knows you well. Explain the ways in which he or she would agree or disagree with your results.
Overview of the Five-Factor Module of Personality, also called the “Big Five”
First, watch the following Ted Talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/brian_little_who_are_you_really_the_puzzle_of_personality.
In the corporate world, research is done to pinpoint certain trait profiles that will result in a successful employee. Companies often give inventories when hiring, like a personality analysis based on the Five-Factor Model of Personality, commonly known as “Big-Five, which measures five core trait domains.
- Openness to experience/intellect: Are you eager to try new experiences and ideas, or are you more comfortable having experiences stay the same most of the time?
- Conscientiousness: How organized of a person are you? Are you a reliable person, or are you generally careless with your actions?
- Extraversion: Are you a social person who feels “recharged” when interacting with other people, or are you a quiet, more reserved person who prefers solitude?
- Agreeableness: Would you say you are a compassionate, forgiving, and understanding person, or do you tend to be more critical and blunt to people?
- Neuroticism: Are you someone who is nervous, anxious, and worries about the future, or are you calm and hard to fluster?
Step 2: Take the “Big Five” at the following link: http://www.outofservice.com/bigfive/.
Write a thoughtful one or two paragraph essay that addresses the following:
- Summarize your results from the “Big Five.” Do not copy/paste the results from the personality test; instead, summarize your results in your own words.
- From the perspective of an employer, explain what they may conclude, based on your results, regarding whether or not you would be a successful employee.
- Based on your results, identify one area you might like to improve. Explain what strategies you might use to implement the improvement?
Step 3: Review the grading rubric (webpage, opens in new tab), which explains the expectations for your writing assignment.
Step 4: Put your essay from the Jung Typology Test and your essay from the “Big Five” inventory into one Word document. If you do not use Word, please save your document as a PDF or RTF file. Submit your document to the drop box.
