After reviewing the information provided above, you will create a two- to three-page case study focusing on professional scenarios (they can be real or hypothetical) in which you evaluate your learning as it contributes to the overall attainment of Ashford University’s institutional outcomes and the Bachelor of Arts in Psychology program outcomes (chose an example from a teacher or health care volunteer career)

• Create a 750- to 1000-word case study of a willing adult volunteer who has developed the competencies of their academic program at Ashford University.
• Evaluate this person’s learning within the program as it contributes to the overall attainment of the institutional outcomes.
• Include at least one personal life example and one career example of applying the competencies to resolve personal challenges and an ethical dilemma (e.g., a client or research subject reveals compromising information about a friend or family member who also happens to be someone you know in a personal/social context).
• Create or describe a scenario in which the person wrestles with an issue related to the assigned research topic in her or his personal and/or professional life. Be specific in your discussion of the scenario and provide details demonstrating professional problem solving on the part of the person in your case study.
• Include a section wherein your person articulates a personal point of view, evaluate evidence, determine options for responding and evaluate the pros and cons of the options prior to making a decision about a course of action within the scenario.
• Conclude with how the problem was resolved and what the person learned while at Ashford University that assisted in an effective resolution.
