How do state ELL proficiency tests, such as the AZELLA (AZ) or the WIDA (other states), guide data-informed decision making? How do these test results affect lesson planning?

Your book states to be wary of "gut reactions." Do you agree with this? Why or why not? Can you think of any examples where these types of behavioral reactions were advantageous for a company

A report included the following information on the heights (in.) for non-Hispanic white females.

(a)

Calculate a confidence interval at confidence level approximately 95% for the difference between population mean height for the younger women and that for the older women. (Use μ_20–39 − μ_{60 and older}.) ,

We are 95% confident that the true average height of younger women is greater than that of older women by an amount within the confidence interval.We are 95% confident that the true average height of younger women is greater than that of older women by an amount outside the confidence interval.    We cannot draw a conclusion from the given information.We are 95% confident that the true average height of younger women is less than that of older women by an amount within the confidence interval.Interpret the interval.

(b)

Let

μ₁

denote the population mean height for those aged 20–39 and μ₂ denote the population mean height for those aged 60 and older. Interpret the hypotheses

H₀: μ₁ − μ₂ = 1

and

H_a: μ₁ − μ₂ > 1.

The null hypothesis states that the true mean height for older women is 1 inch higher than for younger women. The alternative hypothesis states that the true mean height for older women is more than 1 inch higher than for younger women.The null hypothesis states that the true mean height for younger women is more than 1 inch higher than for older women. The alternative hypothesis states that the true mean height for younger women is 1 inch higher than for older women.    The null hypothesis states that the true mean height for younger women is 1 inch higher than for older women. The alternative hypothesis states that the true mean height for younger women is more than 1 inch higher than for older women.The null hypothesis states that the true mean height for older women is more than 1 inch higher than for younger women. The alternative hypothesis states that the true mean height for older women is 1 inch higher than for younger women.

Carry out a test of these hypotheses at significance level 0.001. Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)

P-value=

(c)

Based on the P-value calculated in (b) would you reject the null hypothesis at any reasonable significance level? Explain your reasoning.

Reject H₀. The data suggests that the difference in the true average heights exceeds 1.Fail to reject H₀. The data suggests that the difference in the true average heights exceeds 1.    Reject H₀. The data does not suggest that the difference in the true average heights exceeds 1.Fail to reject H₀. The data does not suggest that the difference in the true average heights exceeds 1.

(d)

What hypotheses would be appropriate if μ₁ referred to the older age group, μ₂ to the younger age group, and you wanted to see if there was compelling evidence for concluding that the population mean height for younger women exceeded that for older women by more than 1 in.?

H₀: μ₁ − μ₂ = 1
H_a: μ₁ − μ₂ < 1H₀: μ₁ − μ₂ = −1
H_a: μ₁ − μ₂ < −1    H₀: μ₁ − μ₂ = 1
H_a: μ₁ − μ₂ > 1H₀: μ₁ − μ₂ = −1
H_a: μ₁ − μ₂ > −1

An 88-year-old Chinese-speaking woman is admitted for complaints of dizziness and s/p a syncopal episode while attending a local senior center program. She was brought to the emergency department. She lives with her son and his family in a two-family home, which she owns. She is independent in all activities of daily living (ADLs) and participates in a daily tai chi exercise group with her friends at the local park. She did not want to go to the emergency department, but instead wanted to go home and have some "herbal medicines."

A medical workup reveals that she has aortic stenosis, atrial fibrillation, and hypertension. She is started on an antihypertensive, coumadin, and aspirin and discharged home with her family.

One week later she is readmitted to the hospital with rectal bleeding and bleeding from her gums. She denies taking excessive amounts of coumadin or aspirin. When you ask her son to bring in her medications, only prescribed medications are present, and he reassures you that she is taking the medications according to the physician's orders. She reports that she has not altered her routine at all; she practices tai chi every morning and eats lots of fruits and vegetables. A colonoscopy reveals a polyp, which is removed, and she is transfused with 2 units of packed red blood cells. She is discharged home with her family 2 days later, and home health care is ordered. The home health care nurse visits her 1 day after discharge.

A Chinese-speaking nurse visits her and learns that she is taking all of her prescribed medications as ordered. However, she is taking a supplement of a Chinese herb (gingko biloba) in tablet form twice per day to maintain her memory, and she is also consuming an oriental herbal tea (containing Chinese ginseng, ginger, and garlic) three to four times per day. She states, "I take my pills just like the doctor says, but it is this tea that is making me feel better. It is made of special herbs. It is better than all of those pills." The nurse suggests that the woman stop taking the supplement and drinking the tea until she can find out what herbs it is made of, but she is reluctant to do so because she believes it is the secret to longevity.

1. What actions should the home health nurse take?
2. What information should the nurse include in the medication teaching plan for the patient?
3. Based on the information in the above scenario, do you think that her regimen is causing her rectal bleeding and bleeding gums? Why? Specifically, what elements of her regimen may be contributing to the bleeding?

3. In the 1981 federal budget, President Reagan proposes a new relationship between the states and the federal government in relationship to relief. Explain the changes in detail. What are the positive and negative aspects of the new relationship?
