FAMILY INTERVENTION

consider interventions for working with issues that impact families today. You also will consider techniques for interventions that help families mitigate the negative effects of divorce/final separation or the loss of a parent/spouse, should either occur or be the central issue of counseling.

To prepare for this Discussion:
•Reflect on the family intervention techniques discussed for various issues.
•Consider interventions that may be suggested to mitigate the impact of divorce/final separation as well as the loss of a parent/spouse.
•Review the Del Sol family case study from Chapter 16 of the Family Assessment Handbook. Consider the following caveats: Rosa and Miguel have separated. Miguel has moved out but begs Rosa daily to change her mind and let him come home. Rosa has indicated she will attend family counseling before filing for divorce, to see if Miguel can change.

•Consider intervention techniques or approaches you might apply in one of the two case studies above, including techniques for mitigating the effects of divorce/final separation or the loss of a parent/spouse.
With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 4 a brief description of two intervention techniques or approaches that you might apply to your choice of one of the two family case studies above. Explain how and why you would apply each technique or approach in the case you selected. Be sure to explain how the techniques could mitigate the potential negative effects of divorce/final separation or the loss of a parent/spouse.

Developing Cymbalta

Developing Cymbalta

At 3:55 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon in April 2000, John Kaiser, marketing director at Eli Lilly
and Company, spotted the clock in the lower right-hand corner of his computer screen and decided
to make one last edit to the PowerPoint presentation he was to give at a 4 p.m. meeting. After editing
and sending the slide deck to the color printer, Kaiser quickly reached for his cell phone. The
meeting was scheduled to run for two hours, but given the topic-developing a successor to the now-
legendary antidepressant Prozac-Kaiser wanted to call home and advise that he might be
unavailable until 6:30 or 7:00 p.m. As a former global marketing director for Prozac, Kaiser knew
firsthand of its success and that, though certainly possible, replacing it would not be easy. Following
his call home, Kaiser quickly walked over to the color printer, picked up copies of the presentation
which he had titled ”No Pain, No Gain” and headed off to the meeting.

Prozac had only a few years left of patent protection before generic versions of the same molecule,
fluoxetine, could be sold in the U.S. Historically, competition by generic manufacturers dramatically
reduced the sales of the brand medication that they aimed to replace (Prozac, in this case). Though
officially Prozac’s patent would expire in December of 2003, no one could be sure exactly how much
time Prozac had left. Although a ruling of a U.S. District Court judge in 1999 upheld the patent for
Prozac, Barr Laboratories, a manufacturer of generic drugs that hoped to sell its own version of
generic fluoxetine, had already filed an appeal with a federal court in Washington, D.C., and a ruling
was expected as soon as the summer of 2000.

To management at Lilly, patent expirations were usually just part of the business of
pharmaceuticals. However, Prozac was Lilly’s flagship product and the market leader in the most
popular class of medications used to treat depression-the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
(SSRIS). Its annual sales of more than $2 billion would create an enormous revenue gap to fill. And
although many at Lilly were actively engaged in planning for life after Prozac, pharmaceutical
research and development was universally well-known for being an extremely long and risky
process. According to one source, experimental drugs took an average of 12 years to travel from the
lab to one’s medicine cabinet. On average, only one in 1,000 compounds to enter preclinical testing
made it to human testing, and only one in five of those tested in humans was ultimately approved by
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the U.S.1

Children’s literature

This paper is about Children’s literature and the topic is any one of the three topics IN HE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW;

These assignments are designed to encourage independent investigation of children’s literature and related issues. Because the quizzes demand a focus on assigned texts, lectures, and class discussions, the papers provide you the opportunity to explore original territory in the field. They also monitor your abilities to formulate questions, topics, and theses of your own; to generate a thoughtful program of investigation and research; and to demonstrate your rhetorical and linguistic skills through the use of evidence and argumentation — all of these valuable critical thinking tools you will need in any professional discipline. Each paper must be 1500 words long (roughly 6 pages double-spaced in 12-point font) and make use of outside resources for purposes of quotation, evidence, and authoritative support. In most cases, that means a bibliography or “Works Cited” list of four to six sources, mostly critical works. You will find advice on how and where to seek acceptable sources on the attached “Starting Points for Research.” Take advantage of it. Take advantage as well of my office hours, which will be expanded on the days indicated on the syllabus. I can help you formulate a topic that will interest you and a good thesis. Further suggestions for writing an “A” paper are appended as “Words for the Wise.”
MIDTERM (Choose one):
1)Analyze a children’s novel from the period between the Golden Age and the Silver Age — roughly 1920 to 1950, when books such as Mary Poppins (Travers), Little House on the Prairie (Wilder), and The Hobbit (Tolkien) made their appearance. This was a time when the primarily educational, even adult-oriented books of the Golden Age were giving way to the more child-friendly works of the latter period. You might consider this question of intended audience and purpose, or take on any issue in the book that has critical support. Examples of past papers: “Wilder’s Little House: Traditional vs. Modern Roles for Women”; “The Hobbit as Mythic Coming-of-Age.”
2)Consider a children’s author from a specific standpoint of theme, subject matter, or reception; this can be an author we are reading, as long as you don’t simply echo what we discuss in class. Examples: “Lewis’s Christian Writings and Narnia,” “Human Nature in the Novels of Roald Dahl.”
3)Select a children’s novel from the Silver Age (1950-1970) and argue a specific thesis about it. Make certain you are dealing with a children’s book (for readers no older than 12); Catcher in the Rye and Lord of the Flies, for instance, are definitely adolescent novels and thus outside this course (save them for LTWL 116). If you are not sure, ask. Examples: “Harriet the Spy, Proto-Feminist”; “Rationalizing Fantasy in The Rats of NIMH.”

STARTING POINTS FOR RESEARCH
In the age of the Internet, an increasing number of students have come to believe that “research” means Googling for half an hour. While there are now more excellent resources than ever online, you need to know how to find them or evaluate their usefulness. Besides, as students at UCSD, you are paying a lot for your education, some of which goes to support a superb library/research system on campus. Get your money’s worth: take advantage of this university’s facilities and its reputation for higher learning. As UCSD students, in fact, you may even access much of the university’s library and online resources from the comfort of your own home.
Not all research materials, whether in print or in photons, are created equal. For example, Cliff Notes, SparkNotes, and their equivalent are for high school students who haven’t done the reading, not for college students supporting critical arguments. Likewise, most general encyclopedias are so secondary school. That includes Wikipedia, which is simply an online encyclopedia; it may be useful for background and ideas, but it is not a quotable resource; at best it can point you to quotable resources. Instead, begin by turning to the many excellent reference works or databases available through the library website. Fortunately, UCSD offers access to many electronic journals and other potential research materials alongside the non-virtual books and periodicals in the library building itself.
Despite the many useful online sources, books and articles in print have information that is not available online. Use research in many media; anything else will look like intellectual laziness.
