Module 6: Discussion Forum

Creating an engaged workforce, while considering today’s changing work environment, can be a challenging task for HR professionals. In the past, organizations have been transactional. Today, many organizations believe it is necessary to engage employees while also continuously scanning the environment for organizational impacts.

Organizations need to remain relevant. Leaders must visualize organizational strategies and how to ensure organizational success, while involving employees in change processes.

With aging comes physiological, functional, and sensory changes. At times, these changes can manifest as a loss. Often, a loss of function may begin a so-called downward spiral in the life of an elderly person, affecting his or her independence and quality of life.

Imagine you are working with a client who is helping her parents explore their long-term care options. She has asked you to address the significance and validity of the above statement. 

Write a 1,300 word response to your client that addresses the above statement. Include how the specific loss of function might affect one or more activities of daily living.

Use a minimum of 3 references to support your response.

Format your assignment according to APA guidelines.

  

Find a course that you attended recently enough to: (a) have the course materials and (b) remember the flow of the course and its timing. ( I WILL SEND A LIST OF COURSES THAT I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN FOR YOU TO CHOOSE ONE)
 

Use the design template provided (in Module 1) for this course’s special project. Recreate the course design of your chosen course showing the key learning elements along with a minimal amount of content. The content should only be enough to guide you or an experienced instructor through teaching the course and should not go as deep as a step-by-step what-to-say or do-next level of detail. Focus your attention on design elements used by instructors and/or students. Write a one-page review of the course and attach your design document using APA format.

Your paper should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Please include citations to support your ideas.
