Please write out transcript. Thanks.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the required chapters from the text and review the required articles for this week.

Taking on the role of the expert in the treatment of schizophrenia or depression, you will prepare a presentation for a group of physicians who are seeking your opinion on the treatment of patients with these disorders. For this interactive assignment you will create and upload a 5- to10-slide PowerPoint presentation as well as a 5 minute screencast of the presentation to share with your peers.

For this presentation, select either schizophrenia or depression as the basis for your presentation. Begin by creating your PowerPoint presentation. In the presentation, include information which explains the neurotransmitter theory behind the disorder and how the drugs used to treat the disorder affect those neurotransmitter systems.  Evaluate the risk and benefits of treating a patient with the most common type of medication and of not using drugs to treat the patient. In your evaluation, examine issues such as the rate of success with the most common drugs used as well as the incidence of side effects with these same drugs, including mortality associated with drug use. Then consider not using medications to treat the disorder. Take into account the natural course of the illness, the rate of spontaneous recovery, and the rate of mortality when untreated. You may also incorporate the use of other modes of treatment into your evaluation.

Your PowerPoint must include your presenter notes in the notes field to indicate what you intend to say during the screencast and well-chosen images to enhance the understanding of your audience. Remember that your screencast will be a maximum of 5 minutes, and use your speaker notes to ensure that you will be able to present your materials within this time limit. (You may access Garr Reynolds’s Slide TipsLinks to an external site. for additional assistance in creating an effective visual presentation.) Once you have created your PowerPoint, you will create a screencast presentation of up to 5 minutes in length using any screencasting software you choose. (Quick-Start Guides are available for Screencast-O-MaticLinks to an external site. for your convenience.) Attach your PowerPoint file to your intial post and include the URL for your screencast in the body of the post before submitting it.

Note to Students: This assignment requires that you produce a visual presentation, supply a spoken audio narrative, and to listen the audio narrative of others.  Note you are also asked to provide a transcript of your presentation.  If you have a documented disability accommodation that might interfere with your ability to complete this assignment you may contact your instructor to develop a comparable alternative assignment.  If you have other issues that you feel may be a barrier to your ability to complete this course or this assignment please contact the Office of Access and Wellness at: access@uagc.edu.

Guided Response: Review several of your colleagues’ video presentations and respond to at least two of your peers by 11:59 p.m. on Day 7 of the week. You are encouraged to post your required replies earlier in the week to promote more meaningful interactive discourse in this discussion. In your responses to your peers you will take on the role of one of the physicians in the audience. In your responses, consider two of the following aspects from the presentation:

• The content of the evaluation:Was it sound, well-reasoned, and based on substantial evidence?
• The format of the presentation:Was it easy to understand? Was the sequence of facts well-constructed? Were the visual aids helpful in understanding the meaning of the content?
• The video presentation: Was the verbal presentation clear? Was the pacing appropriate for the material(s)? Was the video helpful in understanding the meaning of the content?

Select a psychoactive drug that is of pharmacological interest to you, but not one you will review as part of your Critical Review or one that was included in your previous Rapid Review. For this paper, you may choose drugs of abuse; however, the paper must focus on the pharmacology of the drug and not on the social or addictive aspects.  If you focus on addiction and social impact, your paper will not receive credit.

In addition to the text, research a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles published within the last 5 years on your selected drug. Prepare a three-page summary of the drug using the PSY630 Rapid Review Example paper as a guide.

In your Rapid Review, analyze and explain the pharmacological aspects of the drug as they relate to the following: neurotransmitters affected, receptors, route of administration, half-life, doses, side effects, drug interactions, contraindications, and other important facets of the drug. Explain these aspects of the drug in terms of the psychiatric disorders indicated for the drug and the issue(s) associated with that use. If there is no accepted therapeutic use for the drug, evaluate and describe the actions of the drug with regard to the abuse process.

The paper:

• Must be three to five double-spaced pages in length, excluding title page and references page, and it must be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Writing Center.
• Must include a title page with the following:
  • Title of paper
  • Your name
  • Course name and number
  • Your instructor’s name
  • Date submitted
• Must address the topic of the paper with critical thought.
• Must use at least three peer-reviewed sources in addition to the text.
• Must document all sources in APA style as outlined in the Writing Center.
• Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Writing Center.

Prior to beginning this discussion, please read the following required articles based on your last name *prior to posting:

*All articles should be read prior to posting to your peers’ posts.

This week you are developing your understanding of language acquisition and how theories can support the differing aspects of this acquisition.

In your initial post,

• Apply skeptical inquiry to a brief discussion about why language acquisition is an important area for scholars and educators to understand when developing learning opportunities.
• Choose and define three new vocabulary terms from the week’s readings and explain your interest in these concepts.
• Discuss how additional factors [Zone of Proximal Development (A-M), self-regulation (N-S), and neuroscience (T-Z)] might affect language acquisition.
• Apply the concept of language acquisition to your own academic success. Has your own language development affected your success as a student? As an employee? How? Based on the resources and your current knowledge, do you believe you could develop areas of language acquisition, personally, that would be beneficial to you, your loved ones, or your friends?

Prior to beginning work on this activity, review the Week 6 Final Project instructions and contact your instructor with any questions you may have about the theory you have chosen for your topic and the 3 applications you will explain based on the theory. Watch “Recording Presentations with ZoomLinks to an external site.” and “Use Microsoft PowerPoint with Screencast-O-MaticLinks to an external site.”.

In addition, the followingvideo is an example presentation by a University of Arizona Global Campus student during the 2020 Research Symposium. Although the content differs from what you will be presenting, it will give you an idea of the look and feel of a recorded webinar/presentation.

The primary goal of the Learning and Cognition Final Project in Week 6 is to integrate concepts from the discipline of learning and cognitive psychology into a usable and professional recorded informational webinar presentation or a useful instructional/training manual that is designed for a specific audience based on your career goals. The purpose of this project is to share helpful strategies and knowledge by applying what you have learned from the course to a major topic in the field: Behavior Analysis, Cognitivism, or Information Processing. You will use your theory to also share at least three strategies associated with the theory that could be applied to your audience’s organization. You will incorporate your findings from required sources and the relevant sources you researched throughout the course. In Week 3 you were to choose your topic from the following list:

• Behavior Analysis (previously known as behaviorism)
• Cognitivism
• Information Processing Theory

This week you will be submitting the following interactively so you and your classmates can more thoroughly identify areas of improvement prior to Week 6.

• The audience (career field) you have chosen to share your information with
  • Examples: a hospital, a school, a marketing company, etc.
    • Align the audience with your future career goals
• Your mode of sharing the information (recorded webinar or instructional/training manual)
  • If creating a recorded webinar/presentation, include what software you think you will be using.
• An outline of your Final Project, including how the theory can be applied in the career field you have chosen to focus on
  • If you are doing a webinar where you will share a PowerPoint, explaining how you plan to organize your slides.
• Submission of any questions you have about the Final Project
• Submission of any questions you have about using the video software
  • Consider practicing with the software so you can ask questions. Be sure to watch the how to videos on each online software’s site. These are very helpful.
    • • Zoom
      • Screencast-o-matic
      • YouTube
