Meida court room

Meida court room

To what degree can judges control a courtroom procedure to ensure a fair trial? Think of some of the recent court cases that have received a significant amount of publicity, such as the Martha Stewart, O.J. Simpson, Scooter Libby, or Casey Anthony cases. Some of these cases even allowed television cameras in the courtroom. Can the court process really be controlled by a judge and can we still ensure that defendants receive a fair trial with the heightened level of media attention in our modern society?

Role of court

Role of court

What role should the courts play in our society? Historically some of the most significant changes in our society have occurred due to decisions by the Supreme Court. Issues such as the powers of the federal government, integrated schools, legalized abortion, & the death penalty have all been decided by the Supreme Court. In the recent debate over Gay marriage an argument waged by those in favor of the constitutional amendment ban, argued that it was not the role of the courts to make policy. Others hold that courts make decisions that politicians are unable to make because they are politically unpopular but constitutionally valid. What should the role of the courts be in our society?

Research Paper Strategies and Interventions

For this paper you will write six to eight (6-8) page paper comparing the utility and efficacy of a tactic and various strategies that were employed across differing ecological levels to promote one particular health behavior change. For further guidance see grading rubric located within the “Assignment Guidelines” of this syllabus.


 


Instructions:


 


1. In this paper you will use the ecological model to put together concepts studied throughout this course.


 


2. Search the library and find an article that thoroughly describes a health promotion program that uses interventions to try and change health behaviors in the context of an ecological model.


 


•     Identify 2 strategies and 1 tactic per strategy that the program used.  Have each of the strategies address a different level of the ecologicalmodel (since you have 2 strategies you will be explaining 2 levels of the ecological model in detail). For example describe one strategy and one tactic that your selected program used to address the health issue at the individual level, and another strategy with a tactic used at another level such as the community level.


 


•    Address the following areas in your paper applying corresponding section headings:


•    Brief overview of the ecological model (ONE SHORT PARAGRAPH)


•     Explanation of program you chose and ecological model that is the framework for the program


•    What health behavior is the program trying to change?


•    Why is it important to try and change that health behavior? (incidence & prevalence of issues that could occur due to health behavior)


•     Detail how each of the two strategies addressed two different levels of the ecological model (1 strategy addresses 1 level)


•    Evaluate each strategy and tactic

Ideology

Ideology

During both the Bush and Obama administrations, opposition party members argued that the Supreme Court nominees ideological viewpoints were too extreme for the American ideological points of view. This argument will likely surface as President Obama has pledged to nominate Justice Scalia’s replacement to the Supreme Court. Do you think ideology should be used to reject federal court nominees or should approval be based solely on experience and qualifications? If you believe ideology should be used, what role does the electorate play in determining judicial appointees? If you do not believe ideology should be considered, what factors would determine the qualifications of a federal appointee?
