 Net neutrality is otherwise termed as net neutrality. It is the process and the principle that is adopted by the Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) to treat all the net communications in a equal manner without any sort of discrimination & also not charging the fares of the internet usage differently based upon different criteria’s such as type of user, content, website and other related factors etc., With the proper implementation of net neutrality, the ISP’S cannot shut down or block or charge excess money for the internet usage. Also, without net neutrality, ISP’s may not be able to regularize the type of traffic or block the traffic from certain services.

          Net neutrality is a substantial tool that is liberated in order to restore the freedom of utilizing the internet. The fundamental concept of net neutrality is not to discriminate or to promote any sort of application which are having faster speeds. The objective of the net neutrality is that all the applications should be given equal amount of opportunity in order to promote and give a proper chance to grow without showing any discriminations (Electronic Frontier Foundation ).

           In order to give equal opportunity to everyone and the promotion of all applications, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved the concept of Net Neutrality in the year 2015 after so many attempts. It is a regular practice for the Internet service providers to forge the packets in order to alter the data from various sources of traffic and they can either be slowed down or can block the application. In the year 2010, for the first time, FCC attempted to act against such types of threats and in 2014 year, FCC has framed certain rules and regulations in order to fight against these issues (ACLU, 2018).

You’ve had a chance to review the “start here” sequence that gives an overview of the course design. You also had an opportunity to review the course learning outcomes. Take a moment and review these outcomes.

• Which outcomes do you have familiarity with already?
• What previous knowledge do you have that you bring with you into this course?
• What professional experience connects with the learning outcomes? 

There’s no need to answer every question or address each learning outcome. Rather, focus on one question and the learning outcome(s) that stand out to you the most. In your post, introduce yourself and let your peers know about your professional experience in no more than one sentence, e.g., “I’m Dr. Estee Beck, and I have 12-years experience with teaching undergraduate and graduate students.” 

Learning Outcomes

• Recall basic conventions for common professional and technical documents when prompted in a workplace setting
• Identify distinctions of the varying information needs of primary and secondary audiences, document design principles, and conventional genres
• Implement technical writing standards to professional and technical documents in order to meet and/or exceed workplace norms
• Analyze professional writing styles in professional and technical documentation
• Evaluate professional and technical documents for readability effectiveness in order to approve or revise documents for readers in workplace settings 
• Compose professional and technical documents for diverse audiences in order to meet primary and secondary audience information needs
• Design professional and technical documents using navigation aids and information design principles in order to help readers easily locate, understand, and retain information

SWOT Activity – 10-Slide PowerPoint

Due Week 2 and worth 50 points

As indicated in the Research Activity, out of 200 applicants, you were selected to work as the manager in the research department for a special task force with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Review the CDC website at https://www.cdc.gov. Your first assignment with the special task force is to focus on Opioid Overdose. The CDC reports that from 1999 to 2015, more than 183,000 people died in the U.S. from overdose related to prescription opioids.

The CDC has been researching the impact of opioid overdose to protect the public’s health and prevent opioid overdose deaths using surveillance and research. Your focus is two primary areas: 1) opioid prescribing guidelines for physicians, and 2) ways hospitals can create prescription drug monitoring as a part of their Quality Management Department (seehttps://www.cdc.gov/drugoverdose/index.html).

The CDC sent you to a local hospital, and based on your Research Activity, you were asked to provide the hospital leaders with a 10-slide PowerPoint to explain your research findings and to include a SWOT analysis. Your research skills used to create a SWOT analysis is based on Chapter 3 in the textbook and from the Research Exercise. SWOT stands for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats; this analysis tool can be used to identify forces that can potentially help or harm the healthcare organization. Review the SWOT examples in Figures 1 and 2; listen to the Week 1 Lecture in Blackboard, and review the video on SWOT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_6AVRGLXGA.

Figure 1

Figure 2

Your 10-slide SWOT PowerPoint should follow this format:

1. Slide 1 should be a cover page; 
2. Slide 2 is the background; 
3. Slides 3-9 should have a Thesis Statement and follow the SESC formula: State, Explain, Support, and Conclude; and
4. Slide 10 is the reference page and should contain at least three (3) quality peer-reviewed references in SWS format. Note:Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.
5. This course requires use of new Student Writing Standards (SWS). The format is different than other Strayer University courses. Please take a moment to review the SWS documentation for details.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Analyze the critical management issues, purpose, functions, and performance measures of different departments within healthcare organizations.
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in health services organization management.
• Write clearly and concisely about health services organization management using proper writing mechanics.

As presented in this week’s readings, many individuals acquire infections in the community as well as during treatment in the hospital. As a nurse, it is important to know what is going on in the world. In addition to reading scholarly literature, reading the paper and watching the news helps to keep a nurse aware of what is going on currently. In addition, many organizations like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) track current health trends and post updates on their websites, along with Fact Sheets to help educate, prevent, and treat new and re-emerging diseases. These Fact Sheets are made to be short and easy to read so that health care professionals and patients are more likely to read and understand the information.

For this Discussion, you will examine an emerging or re-emerging disease and the nurse’s role in prevention and management of the disease. Locate an article in a newspaper, in a lay magazine, or on an organizational website that discusses an emerging or re-emerging infectious disease that is currently affecting your community. Reflect on the article you selected and think about how the emerging or re-emerging disease might affect nursing practice.

Summarize the article you selected and provide the reference. Then, address the following:

· What implications does the disease have for nursing practice?

· How does the emergence of this disease affect your personal practice?

· Why do you think that this disease is emerging/re-emerging?

· What is the nurse’s role in preventing and managing the impact of infectious diseases both from the patient and nurse perspective?

Support your response with references from the professional nursing literature.

Note Initial Post: A 5-paragraph (at least 550 words) response. Be sure to use evidence from the readings and include in-text citations. Utilize essay-level writing practice and skills, including the use of transitional material and organizational frames. Avoid quotes; paraphrase to incorporate evidence into your own writing. A reference list is required. Use the most current evidence (usually ≤ 5 years old).
