...January 13, 2014. Individual assignment. This assignment is partly based on the attached article published in The Australian on April 26, 2012 entitled “Poor bear brunt of ‘nanny taxes’” by Adam Creighton and a paper written by Sam Oldfield on August 7, 2013, “Cigarette Tax Hike Defies Economic Logic.” Please read the articles carefully before attempting the questions. You will be required to demonstrate your understanding of economic concepts taught in the unit and relate them to the cases in the articles. This assignment is designed to encourage you to think about the applications of economic concepts learned in this unit to real world scenarios. Based on the attached Rubric, your assignment will be graded on your use of appropriate economic theory and concepts, clarity of exposition and overall quality of your answers. Your answers should follow “Guide to assignment writing and referencing”, available at this link: http://www.deakin.edu.au/currentstudents/assets/resources/study-support/study-skills/assignref.pdf. Answer all questions. Limit the total word count of your assignment to less than 3,000 words. Depth is encouraged over breadth: that is, it is more important that you demonstrate you understand a concept fully, rather than talk about 3 related concepts only cursorily. You are encouraged to use diagrams/examples in your answers when appropriate. 40 marks. Allocation as indicated next to the question. Your score on this assignment contributes towards 40% of your final score...

...novice researchers, educationalists and clinical midwives to grasp the essence of theoretical frameworks and their potential contribution to midwifery practice. A theoretical framework can be thought of as a map or travel plan. When planning a journey in unfamiliar country, people seek as much knowledge as possible about the best way to travel, using previous experience and the accounts of others who have been on similar trips. ‘Survival advice’ and ‘top tips’ enable them to ascertain the abilities, expectations and equipment that may help them to have a successful journey with good outcomes, to achieve their objectives and return to base safely. At the start of any research study, it is important to consider relevant theory underpinning the knowledge base of the phenomenon to be researched. By addressing simple questions, the researcher can begin to develop a loosely-structured theoretical framework to guide them. The following questions have been adapted from Slevin and Basford (1999: 298): • What do I know about the phenomenon that I want to study? • What types of knowledge are available to me (empirical, non-empirical, tacit, intuitive, moral or ethical)? • What theory will best guide my midwifery practice? • Is this theory proven through theory-linked research? • What other theories are relevant to this practice? • How...

...Theory Congruence with Current Nursing Standards The Texas Board of Nursing (TX BON) states “A professional nurse is responsible for providing safe, compassionate, comprehensive nursing care to patients and their families with complex healthcare needs” (Practice- Registered Nurse n.d.). One of the standards set forth by TX BON is “the maintenance of health, or prevention of illness”. Leininger’s theory says when an individual’s cultural expectations are not met or overlooked can delay progress or lead to worsening health. A nurse is not able to maintain health or prevent illness if he/she is faced with the obstacle lacking cultural knowledge and awareness. Therefore, nurses must approach each patient encounter uniquely with what is learned through literature and from clinical experiences in developing a nursing care plan. Another scope of practice defined by TX BON is the supervision and...

...Objectives of the assignment Students should intend to think about the marketing theory they have been learning and to start using that marketing perspective to better understand specific industries/organizations that are operating in a particular marketplace. Students should acquire understanding of the role of marketing and also see that there is a wide range of information available from a variety of sources that can be used by organizations and practitioners for analysis. Components of the assignment 1 a – prepare a PowerPoint presentation including a MACRO environment analysis of a chosen international company (see appendix 1). Use relevant literature and approaches for preparing the macro analysis such as DESTEP, PEST, PESTL, etc. (5 points) 1 b – set up a SWOT analysis for the same company and present it using visual aids. Remember that in a SWOT analysis you identify strengths, weaknesses, market opportunities for your company, and threats to your business. (5 points) 1 c – prepare a PowerPoint presentation on the competitive landscape of the same company. Use the popular Porter Five Forces framework. In the Five Forces Model, Porter explains that in any industry there are five forces that influence what happens within the industry: 1. Existing companies, 2. potential new companies, 3. substitutes for products offered, 4. the suppliers, and 5. the customers. These five forces combine to make up the business environment. By studying the structure...

...The Philosophy of Marketing Theory: Historical and Future Directions – Mark Tadajewski 1 1.2 “Paradigms Lost”: On Theory and Method in Research in Marketing – Rohit Deshpande 4 1.3 Empirical Business Ethics Research and Paradigm Analysis – V. Brand 6 2 Summary on key learning notes 9 Bibliography 12 The Philosophy of Science The discussion of marketing as a science and the different paradigms related to it were unfamiliar to me before I read these articles included in the assignment. I had earlier gotten familiar with the discussion of economic sociology and the discussion and the debate between economics as a science (especially the neo-classic economic approach) and the subject it researches, i.e. the economic markets where these economic practices take place. It is thus also logical to become familiar with the evolution of marketing practices, as this to many degrees resembles and also equates to the evolution of economic sciences and other sciences alike. The articles are assessed in the order that I read them, since it is hopefully also possible for the reader to follow a logical construct in the development and adoption of the insight that the articles provide on marketing research. Even though this does not pose a logical progression of the articles time-wise, I still feel that it is natural to address these articles in this mentioned fashion. The first one of the articles discussed is “The Philosophy of Marketing Theory” by M. Tadajewski, the second...

...Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines are a potential vehicle to achieve the implementation of EBP into clinical practice. Implementing change in practice has been attempted by a number of direct and indirect methods Implementation depends on clinicians and managers changing a variety of behaviours, and there have been more than 300 evaluations of interventions to improve implementation - Grimshaw JM, Thomas RE, Maclennan G, Fraser C, Ramsay C, Vale L, Whitty P, Eccles MP, Matowe L, Shirran L, Wensing M, Dijkstra R, Donaldson C: Effectiveness and efficiency of guideline dissemination strategies. Health Technology Assessment 2004, 8:1-84. For theory to be used in implementation research, it needs to be seen as relevant, accessible and useful, and researchers need to have expertise in behavioural theory. The relevance of theories of behaviour change would be more apparent if implementation of research findings were conceived in terms of health professional behaviour = Eccles M, Grimshaw J, Walker A, Johnston M, Pitts N: Changing the behaviour of healthcare professions: the use of theory in promoting the uptake of research findings. Journal of Epidemiology 2005, 58:107-112.
