    Please read the excerpt of Martin Luther’s Open Letter to the Christian Nobility.
    Write a one page reflection paper, responding to the following question:
    How does Martin Luther use the Scriptures (Bible) to argue against the Catholic Church (which he calls “the Romanists”)? Pick a couple of examples from the document and show the position of the Romanists, the position of Martin Luther, and which Scripture he uses to demonstrate that he thinks the Romanists are wrong.

    How to be successful:
    Formatting: The paper must be one page long (at least 350 words), and should be typed in Times New Roman, size 12, double-spaced, with one inch margins. References to the text should be made parenthetically at the end of a sentence with the author and a paragraph number (Luther 6). Include a thesis statement near the end of the first paragraph.
    Style: Write in a formal fashion. This means the paper should not contain contractions (spell out “do not” instead of writing “don’t”) or first or second person pronoun usage (such as “I think” or “if you were a Romanist”).

    Discussion: Healthcare Quality Strategies
    The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality authored the National Quality Strategy (NQS) in order to set a strategy for improving healthcare quality. The NQS has six priorities:
    1. Making care safer by reducing harm caused in the delivery of care
    2. Ensuring that each person and family are engaged as partners in their care
    3. Promoting effective communication and coordination of care
    4. Promoting the most effective prevention and treatment practices for the leading causes of mortality, starting with cardiovascular disease
    5. Working with communities to promote safe use of best practices to enable healthy living
    6. Making quality care more affordable for individuals, families, employers, and governments by developing and spreading new healthcare delivery models
    Using what you have learned, discuss the following:
    • Which NQS priorities do you feel are vital to healthcare today post pandemic?
    • What are the areas where the program could improve?
    • How does the healthcare industry use the population health approach in implementing its strategies?

    Although writing occurs in every discipline, what this writing looks like will v

    Although writing occurs in every discipline, what this writing looks like will vary across disciplines. For example, writing a lab report in a Biology class is different from writing a literature review in an Economics class or an expert witness testimony in a Courts and Forensics course. Put another way, writing is discipline-specific, which means every discipline has specific genres that are commonly used within that discipline. The purpose of this assignment is to help you become more familiar with what effective writing and communication looks like in your discipline so that you can continue to build your professional ethos. 
    Identify specific conventions, audiences, and purposes relevant to one’s particular discipline; identify the rhetorical elements of a genre (analysis); and analyze a discipline-specific genre for its genre conventions (analysis).
    Instructions
    Your major assignment in this module is to do a genre analysis. So, your task is to complete the genre analysis chart. This assignment’s primary discipline-specific genre is Science Writing for a Popular Audience (see #38.4
    Links to an external site.
    ). Two other genre types are also relevant: literature reviews (see #23
    Links to an external site.
    ) and policy memos (see #31
    Links to an external site.
    ).
    On the left side of the chart, you will notice different categories for analysis. There are specific guiding questions for you to consider as you analyze your genre. Although you should analyze each category, you do not need to respond to all the questions in each category; instead, you should choose to respond to the questions most applicable to the genre you are analyzing. You put this in the first column: “Analysis of the genre.” Then, you will identify at least one specific example from the genre that offers evidence to support the analysis you put in the first column. You put this in the second column: “Specific evidence from the genre.”
