For this week’s discussion you will consider the scenario below and respond in detail to each of the questions below. Here is the scenario you will use:Roberta has come to counseling because she is contemplating a divorce from her husband of 12 years. She has been unhappy in her marriage for several years and doesn’t think that she and her husband can rekindle the interest necessary in their relationship to make it work. To complicate the situation, she has been seeing a married co-worker for several months on the sly and is sexually involved. Roberta thinks she loves the man she is having an affair with and would like to marry him. Though he wants to continue seeing her he has made it clear that he is unwilling to end his marriage or break up his family to be with her. Roberta and her husband have three young children and she knows a divorce would be crushing to the children. She’s come to you for counseling to sort through these issues.1. In your opinion, which of the following counseling theories would you prefer to use to try and help her: Person-centered, Gestalt or Reality? Choose only one and explain your reasoning in detail.2. Using your chosen theory from question 1, would you go about helping her sort through her confusion? Be sure to bring in concepts from your chosen counseling theory to show how you would specifically work with her.3. Roberta is looking for answers to questions she feels unable to answer herself because she is so emotionally involved. After she tells you her story she asks you to give your perspective and advice on what she should do. How would you respond to this request? What potential problems might arise if you do give her direct advice? What potential problems might arise if you don’t give your perspective? Be specific and detailed in your response.  What would your chosen counseling theory have to say about giving direct advice?4. At the end of the session, Roberta is very distraught and asks if you would be available to meet her for coffee later that day to continue the conversation in a more casual environment. Under what circumstances might this be appropriate, if at all? What potential conflicts might this create? Be specific and draw upon information from your text and lecture materials to support your points.

In order to identify the role of resources in one’s daily life, the Wheel of Wellbeing activity will be used. Wheel of Wellbeing is not a new concept and used in a variety of formats by various people. For this assignment, we will use the version including 7 parts: Health, Family, Romance, Personal Growth, Recreation, Physical Environment, and Career.If you do not feel comfortable enough to reflect your personal life on this activity, please feel free to identify a well-known movie, TV show or book character, and reflect on the resources of this person. The goal of this activity is to encourage you to identify the resources in the life parts mentioned above and apply them in daily lives. The grading will also be based on identifying the resources and skillfully applying them.

Your Paper:
1- At the first page, copy the wheel attached at the relevant Assignment section and write your (or your character’s) resources (at least two) at (or next to) each part. The “resources” for each of these are the things/situations/people that helps you to be satisfied in these areas. For instance, for Health, your resources can be organic food, healthy diet, or daily fruit intake. For Romance, your resources can be date nights, romantic experiences, or above all, having a (potential) significant other. For Physical Environment, your resources can be comfy pillows, frames of loved ones, or photo albums. For Career, your resources for satisfaction can be your major, internship, volunteering activities. For Personal Growth, your resources can be self-help books, movies, or your volunteer activities as well. Hope these make sense.

Social Policy(course)
Write a 1000word policy briefing paper
Include some description of the problem , ways in which policies are attempting to address it, critical analysis of the extent of their success, then make some recommendations to better address the issue.
You need to design the briefing to be visually interesting.
Rather than a formal essay you need to produce a document that might be used by politicians , in public select committees or in parliament, by journalists or other commentators , which requires information to be succinct and easy to digest quickly.
The contents must be summarised in bullet points, but must have a clear logical flow and coherence with some original secondary research and policy recommendations that are supported by evidence.
You need to create a policy briefing for your research into this issue, which must include:
A front and back cover (the policy briefing must have a back cover with a tasteful and neat design.
A title
Introduction(set out the scope and purpose of the paper)
Background(explore a social problem, how it relates to a social division)
Examination of evidence(what policies are in place to address the social problem, do they help or not? in what ways? Do they create more problems? You can draw on policy documents, academic sources, journalistic accounts, online blogs, NGOs , think tanks and activist civil society groups, where relevant, but be cautions about the sources, critically judge the merit’s of the claims made)
Policy recommendations(based on your investigations suggest some alternative policy approaches that might help)
Conclusion(overview of the paper and arguments made)

The proposal document must include:

1. Title of the porposed project – I have provided an overall idea above – please feel free to edit as needed to clarify the idea.

2. Background – rationale and justification. I will attach a document outlining what Qatar Tourism Authority is and the problems within it. The majority of these problems can be solved by employing best communication practices.

3. Literature review (this should be an indication of the literature to be explored in support of an analysis of the ‘problem’ (above) and a brief justification)

4. Research questions and objectives (to be explore with appropriate explanation and justification)

5. Method (suitably justified)

6. Timeline and resource plan for the project (this should be on a monthly basis starting June 2016 and ending November 2017)

7. References used in the proposal.

The following are the expected sections:

Section 1: Background – this should indicate knowledge of the organization context and some understanding of the problem to be investigated and why it is appropriate to investigate it.

Section 2: The research questions and objectives section should also provide a clear indication of the question to be investigated and why.

Section 3: The literature review should provide some indication of the theories and models that will be used to inform the research questions and also the subsequent analysis of the research undertaken. *The purpose of the literature review is to locate the research within models and theory that already exist and which can be used to understand both the approach to the ‘problem’ and the recommendations that you make. The method used to undertake the research also needs to be justified through established theories and models.

*Harvard referencing systems must be used fully adopted.

N.B. Please ensure the following:
The background section should critically explore the organizational context and the ‘problem’ in order to establish that there is a real need to undertake the research – and a benefit in doing so. I CAN HELP WITH THIS – PLEASE CONTACT ME TO CONTEXT.

Also, the literature review should offer some critical evaluation of the established literature in order to effectively develop appropriate research questions and to be able to assess the research finding of the research in relation to the established literature.

The method of research adopted must be justified through relevant literature.

The timescale and resource plan must be credible and realistic.

The paper contains an excessive number of direct quotations (over 25%). In academic writing, verbatim (direct) quotes should be used very sparingly, if at all. Instead, you should paraphrase the content of your source materials. Besides, you must provide a reference for any information, whether paraphrased or quoted, taken from a source that is not your own. Otherwise, it would be considered as plagiarism.

Project description
The main elements in the project are;
Energy , Resilience , Sustainable ,Urban futures and Domestic building sector
You should consider ;
1- This should focuses in the local context and conditions.
2- We are assessing and analyzing the resiliency of the sustainable energy solutions in Saudi Arabia.
3- Important part of the methodology will be a compression in many ways between Saudi Arabia and The United Kingdom in implementing the energy options. The cities will be selected later on.
4-In some how , you have to linked this project with economic, social advantages and community ,
5-Saudi Arabian people they have their own culture and behavior, so the sustainable solutions will be changed or adapted to be implemented in this country.

Hi .. 1- We are talking about energy solutions, which mean oil , solar , wind etc. Basically we cannot wrote a system. You was describing a system , which is not the case. We are discussing how can sustainable solutions can be implemented in Saudi Arabia in terms of resiliency. http://www.urban-futures.org/ ( we are not using the tool in this website, but this website have some ideas) This website can show you the idea , but it is related to water. 2- There is should a main aim. 3- Your objectives should more critical and direct not in general, 4- This should focuses in the local context and conditions. Because the teacher will expect the proposal about Saudi Arabia and the United-kingdom , this is way I put those; http://www.kaust.edu.sa/assets/downloads/kicp-annual-strategic-study-appraisal-and-evaluation-of-energy-utilization-and-efficiency-in-the-ksa%202014-volume1.pdf http://www.kaust.edu.sa/assets/downloads/kicp-annual-strategic-study-appraisal-and-evaluation-of-energy-utilization-and-efficiency-in-the-ksa%202014-volume2.pdf You should use them to build up the proposal. And other references related to Saudi And the UK, 5- Methodology: Should explain that there is will be a primary ( data collection) and secondary studies (literature review)

order_id_1454350_revised.2.doc(33,00 KiB)
Dear writer – I still don’t want use word “System” – The main objective is not clear – The questions should be developed, especially no.3 – You have to use articles which discussed Saudi Arabia, and the UK , as you are using general references. -You have to speak about the oil and solar energy.

order_id_1454350_final_revision.3.doc(33,00 KiB)
Hi.. I am still not seeing the solar energy as the Saudi Arabia have a great future with this option. Plus you still not useing any references talking about Saudi Arabia or The UK. I already attach things about Saudi Arabia for you. Check the links in the order.
