I HAVE ADDED MY PART ONE PAPER. THE FOLLOWING IS THE FEEDBACK I RECEIVED FROM THE PROFESSOR THAT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.Hi , this is a great topic. There are a few sentences that are a bit confusing and require further explanation.
This sentence for example: Ideally, finances play a significant role in the life of a child from their
health wellness, nutrition, cognitive development, academic performance and access to resources
and opportunities. Why is it ideal? What does this mean exactly?
Advanced practitioners must be able to synthesize and integrate theory into their practice. Drawing upon what you have learned in this course, your MSW program, and practice, you will explore applying theory to a social issue. This is an activity that you will engage in and build upon throughout the course. This activity strengthens your skills of critical thinking and applied analysis while increasing your awareness about the goodness of fit of some theories over others.
Note: The discussion of each section must be grounded in evidenced. Supporting literature must be incorporated and cited per APA guidelines.
Instructions
