The paper links theory to relevant examples of current experience and industry practice and uses the vocabulary of the theory correctly.
Major points are stated clearly and are supported by specific details, examples, or analysis.

Assume that in response to a request for support from a neighboring state, your fire department decides to send one engine and a crew of four career firefighters/paramedics. You are not selected. One of your best friends who has been selected urges you to drive to the site of the call in the neighboring state in your own vehicle and hook up with the engine company when you get there.
From pre-EMAC and post-EMAC perspectives, describe what legal liability risks you are personally incurring when rendering medical assistance as an out-of-state paramedic who is “freelancing”. If the incident commander allows you to participate in response, is he or she and/or your home municipality facing potential liability? Be sure to address each issue from both perspectives.
Your response should be at least 300 words in length. You are required to use at least your textbook as source material for your response. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
Case Study 2: 50 points
The St. Louis Fire Department experienced a heavy drop in emergency vehicle accidents after issuing an SOP that requires “on the quiet” responses (no red lights or sirens) for incidents such as automatic alarms, smoke detectors, sprinkler alarms, manual pull stations, carbon monoxide detectors, and natural gas leaks. Many fire departments limit “hot” responses to alarm drops to the first due engine and, possibly, a battalion chief. Other departments will send an engine company to accompany an emergency medical services squad, but the engine company goes “on the quiet.”
A couple of terrific studies of such policies in Anne Arundel County, MD, and Philadelphia, PA, are available via the U.S. Fire Administration’s website.

You can locate the above study through one of the following ways:
Create an outline for your community risk-reduction project. The outline should include the type of disaster or hazard impacting the community, who will be involved in assisting the creation of the risk-reduction plan, types of organizations that are community stakeholders, what types of NGOs may be involved, political figures who would be supportive of such a measure, length of project to completion, probable pitfalls that may be associated with the project, cultural considerations (demographics, those who have experienced a disaster in this location, etc.), what types of volunteers will be needed to serve during times of crisis, funding for the project, and how sustainability will be used for maintaining the project/program several years from its inception.
There is no minimum length or amount. It will be based on the topic you have developed in Unit I.

Use the format of one of the “Lesson Plan Templates” as a resource and include the following:
Create a graphic organizer for your strengths and areas for improvement as well as goals and teaching strategies for your next lesson.

Writing the Final Paper
The Final Paper:
· How do you learn? What was something difficult you had to learn, and after several failed attempts you finally got it? What was your turning point? What changed … ?
· Analyze key reasons why certain adults do not avail themselves to adult education opportunities. Propose two (2) strategies that your current or prospective post-secondary learning environment could leverage in order to encourage the participation in organizational learning overall. Provide a rationale for your response.
· Examine the fundamental impact of media literacy on contemporary adult learning overall. How is media literacy shaping education – from posting, to tweeting, to everything is going viral? Give current examples, and elaborate on the impact comparing today to 5 years ago.
· Tell me about your favorite teacher fictional or non-fictional (real or TV character). Everyone has a favorite teacher. Why did you pick this teacher, and what are some of your favorite characteristics and what did you like best about their teaching style?
Hi i need someone to follow the instructions below and I have attached the reading that we need to respond to below also.
Response papers:
Write a 1-2 page paper for every reading assigned. The response paper should be a reaction to reading reflecting your thoughts, rather than a summary of the reading. You should use one or two brief quotations from the author (not the editor’s introduction, which precedes the reading) to connect your discussion with the text. No sources other than the assigned text may be used.
You may either:
Present a critical analysis of the article.
Identify a central argument and criticize it.
Choose a central claim of the author and critically evaluate it in terms current educational issues.
Choose a central claim of the author and apply it to an educational strategy in a teaching context you are interested in.
Response Papers will be evaluated on a scale to 1 to 5 according to following criteria and rubric:
Centrality of the aspect of the text selected:
1-2: Paper has little or no direct relevance to the reading.
3-4: The paper is relevant but the connection between the paper and the reading is not clearly presented.
5: The paper is relevant and clearly connected to the reading.
Cogency of the presentation:
1-2: There is little or no reasonable support for claims made.
3-4: Some support for the claims is offered using reasons and argument. 5: Claims are supported by arguments with reasons and evidence. Thoughtfulness of the discussion:
1-2: The point of the discussion is unclear and the ideas undeveloped.
3-4: The discussion is fairly clear and the ideas somewhat developed.
5: The point of the discussion is clear and the ideas developed.
Technical considerations (spelling, grammar, paragraphing, organization) 1-2: Spelling and grammatical errors. Poor paragraphing and organization. 3-4: Typos and paragraphing errors. Unclear organization.
5: Error free with clear paragraphing and organization.
