Lastly, working with communities is similar, again, to working with individuals, families, and groups; however, it differs in the sense that the worker will focus on an entire community and how that group was involved in their work versus the smaller units that are above (Berkenmaier et al, 2104). II. Quantitative Evaluation Mille Lacs County utilizes the quantitative evaluation process very well. The quantitative evaluation process is one in which requires a social worker and client to meet over a period of time allowing the worker to take a variety of different measurements of their client (Berkenmaier et al, 2014). The two most common tools used are single-subject design (SSD) and goal attainment scaling (GAS) (Birkenmaier et al, 2014). Single-subject design is a grouping of evaluative procedures that looks at change in one client over a period of time; in addition, the worker is typically measuring things such as action, feeling, or behavior and these measurements are gathered by frequency or standardized scale that yields a numerical result (Birkenmaier et al, 2014). At Mille Lacs County I see this every time I am…
Reflection Two Things I Didn’t Know The first thing I learned about the social work practice while at Mille Lacs County is that not all situations will play out how you want them to. Of course I knew that in a general sense; however, there were many situations that I was a part of and/or heard about at the county where things didn’t go down how they were expected to, wanted to, or maybe even should have. This job can be unpredictable with clients as well as with judges and that is something that…
because some people rely on fish as a main source of food and income. Also, raising the limit would fix stunted sizes of panfish in many lakes across the state. Finally, raising the panfish limit would create a boost in the economy of the fishing industry. Despite the general census of Minnesota anglers who recreationally fish, there are also many who heavily rely on fishing as a main source of food, and income. Jobs such as guide services rely on many fish and happy customers to create a…
History of Rosholt Wisconsin Nicholas P. Dobbe High School Abstract This paper will educate you a little about the History of the small village of Rosholt Wisconsin. It will follow the experiences of a few men that contributed into making Rosholt a village. It will talk about why they came, what they did to start a community and how they made the community grow bigger. Gottlieb Stanbly, the first of the few to arrive and, without really knowing, positioned where Rosholt would be, Jens…
In WW2 we won because the other side (Germany) wanted to take over all and we did not allow that and basically we won because they ran out of bullets. The fourth item is a fishing lure, and we put this in the box because the Native Americans (again) fished in rivers like this Mississippi River where we live right by and they lived on it in summer, so basically they fished the rivers and lakes around Minnesota in summer and this was one of their number one food type. The fifth item that we put in…
Glaciers are usually formed on a high elevation location. When on top of a location very high, glaciers glide across the ground making glaciers moving. Glaciers are responsible for many landforms. They can construct kettle lakes, drumlins, eskers, and many more. Glaciers can be destructive, while moving glaciers can take along many things with them including: trees, rocks, and many more. The Wisconsin Glaciation stretched as far down to Des Moines, Iowa. To get to Iowa you have to pass…
The amounts of proteins produced by this gene were observed to see what strain would yield the most. Each of the strains tested had a mutation that would affect protein production in a negative or positive way. Knowing the amount of protein being produced with each strain allows us to understand how each strain affects protein yield. If the amount of protein is significantly decreased this could be due to the mutation deleting or repressing a promoter or enhancer in lac operon. If the amount…
High in the Sierra Nevada mountains, there is Mono Lake, which is a large but secluded lake tucked away in a depression in the ground a few miles away from the nearest road. At first glance, it may seem like just another normal lake, but it is home to a bizarre, otherworldly landscape that was created when water from fresh water springs underneath the lake mixed with the lake’s salty, alkaline water, forming deposits of limestone. Near the south shore of Mono Lake, grotesque towers of rough,…
Condition of the Great Lakes By: Spenser Larson I am Spenser Larson from Chicago, Illinois . I am qualified to write this editorial because I graduated for the University of Stanford in California. I majored in Environmental Science while being the top of my class. I am currently a scientist for the United States Government. I am worried about the pollution in the great lakes because animals such as baby bird have been known to have deformations because of the cancer their mothers were…
This experiment was designed to test what the limiting nutrient was in Loughberry Lake, as well as examine the trophic state of the lake. In order to find out what the limiting nutrient was, we performed a few different tests. We began with a secchi disk test to see the transparency of the water. Then, we took water samples that we later used to test the turbidity levels of the water after adding varying amounts of phosphorous and nitrogen. Phosphorous was the limiting nutrient in the lake,…
