1. Describe at least three software tools that can help you revise and polish a document.

A: Software tools such as revision marks and commenting keep track of proposed editing changes electronically and provide a history of a document’s revisions. A spell checker compares your document with an electronic dictionary, highlights unrecognized words, and suggests correct spellings. A computer thesaurus gives you alternative words much more quickly than a printed thesaurus does. A grammar checker provides limited help with issues such as noun-verb agreement problems and items you should consider changing (such as passive voice, long sentences, or words that tend to be misused or overused). Finally, a style checker monitors your word choice and sentence structure and suggests alternatives that might produce more effective meaning.

Assignment 2: Living With a Disability

When Shelly saw Ms. Jones in a wheelchair, she felt sorry for her. She said a little prayer of thanks that she could walk and move freely without any hindrance. However, feeling badly for a person and actually sitting in the wheelchair for another vantage point is very different.

Imagine that you suffered an accident six months ago. The accident left you partially paralyzed from the waist down. You are currently seeking counseling from a professional specializing in working with individuals who have disabilities. It has been a difficult six months. Your central concerns relate to the emotional and physical adjustments you must now make in relation to your family, job, and future plans. You are permanently in a wheelchair and have limited use of your legs but full use of your arms and upper body.

Identify three major issues that you think you would need to work through in therapy. Explain what aspect of each issue is problematic for you.

Explain how your views on intimacy, usefulness, and security will change for you to make the necessary adjustments for living with the disability.

How well do you think you would cope with this situation if you faced something similar in real life?

Policy Analysis Paper

The final assignment for this course is a policy paper that analyzes a specific “social problem,” the historical emergence of the social problem, the history of policy interventions designed to address the problem, and contemporary proposals, ideologies, and debates that surround a contemporary FEDERAL social welfare policy in your chosen topic/arena.

Requirements

This paper should be 12-15, double-spaced, typed pages with 12-point font. This page length DOES NOT include references. The references and footnotes should follow American Psychological Association (APA) formatting. Please see the publication manual of the American Psychological Association (6th Ed) for guidelines. It is also available on the web at www.apa.org.

Getting Started

One way is to start by identifying a target population in which you are interested. Then choose a specific problem experienced by the population. Of course many populations experience multiple social problems—but try to hone in on one or two specific problems that are addressed by federal policies. For example, poverty problems and the elderly, homelessness and the mentally ill, domestic violence, or teenage motherhood and poverty. The topic must be broad enough to ensure that contemporary and historical policy literature exists and narrow enough not to be overwhelming. In your discussion of the policy response, you will discuss one or two contemporary FEDERAL policies that address the problem. For example, if you’re looking at domestic violence, you may want to choose the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). If you’re looking at the issue of poverty among the elderly, you might end up discussing the Old Age Security and Disability Insurance Program (OASDI) of the Social Security Act.
