M3 Assignment 1: Applying to Graduate School 

In the first two modules, you explored your career options and identified available positions related to your interests. You also determined which of these positions requires a master’s or a doctoral degree. For this assignment, research graduate school programs for the selected career using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet.

Tasks

In the Discussion Area, address the following:

  • Select one of the careers that require graduate-level degrees.
  • Identify at least three graduate school programs you would consider attending. For example, if you hope to become a licensed professional counselor (LPC), you would first need to earn a master’s degree at the very least. You would want to research programs that provide master’s degrees in counseling. Include research on whether you would fulfill the requirements for licensure in your state of residence if you completed those specific programs. Cover the following:
    • Indicate which license you would seek and which programs would or would not prepare you to be eligible for licensure.
    • If you want to become licensed, ensure that these programs meet your state’s requirements for licensure. For example, if you wish to become an LPC, you would have to review the American Association of State Counseling Boards and locate your state’s licensing board website address.
  • For each of the three graduate school programs, research and discuss the institution’s accreditation. You may find that many state licensing boards require programs to be regionally accredited.
    • You might want to review the US Department of Education’s Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs to determine whether the school is regionally accredited.
    • Most states also require a specialized accreditation for licensure as an LPC or a psychologist. For counseling licenses, most states honor programs that have the CACREP designation. For psychology licenses, APA accreditation is usually required. Find programs with the CACREP designation.
  • Discuss any concerns you may have about applying to or attending graduate school. List any questions you have about the application or licensure process.
  • Provide at least two authoritative references or sources for the information you have discussed. One of these can be the textbook.

 

  • All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources. Use this APA Citation Helper as a convenient reference for properly citing resources.

how does schizophrenia impact the family?

) Referencing the DSM 5 guidelines for diagnosing schizophrenia, provide evidence as seen in the movie that would help support this diagnosis. What positive and negative symptoms did you observe?

2) Discuss how the symptoms of schizophrenia were presented through cinematography?  For example, what film methods were used to show psychosis? What film methods depicted different stages or times in Nash’s life? You should consider more than one aspect of filming such as lighting, camera shots (close-ups, camera movement, etc.) and/or music.  You don’t need to know the technical names or specific techniques, just describe what you observed and how it added to the film’s portrayal of this story.

3) What do you think of the movie’s portrayal of schizophrenia? Did it seem accurate? Did it perpetuate stigma associated with schizophrenia or do you think someone watching it would have a greater understanding/appreciation of what it’s like to live with this disorder?

4) How important is social support to the main character in dealing with schizophrenia and how does schizophrenia impact the family?

5) Finally!  What did you think about this film? Did you learn anything you didn’t know? How might you change any aspect of the film if you were the director? Why?
