Project Summary
The Session Long Project for this course will involve developing an emergency response plan (ERP) for a specific community which is subjected to at least three major emergencies or disasters each year. The plan is not required to be detailed but should focus on the operational requirements for managing these disasters or emergencies. The ERP will include a hazard analysis, and mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery plans.
The outcome for the SLP will be a completed ERP that you would present to the city council and others during public hearings on its implementation. This completed ERP is due in the Module 4 SLP.
Module 1 Assignment
Note
You will use the remaining four modules, as well as this one, to build the presentation piece by piece. In the Module 4 SLP, you will synthesize materials from the Module 1-4 SLPs into a final project of 15-20 pages.
This Module 1 SLP paper should be no longer than three pages.
Selection of a community and critical assessment of three types of potential disasters faced by this community are to be provided.
Length: This SLP should be no more than 3 pages not counting the title page and references.
References: At least two references should be included from academic sources (e.g., peer-reviewed journal articles). Required readings are included. Quoted material should not exceed 10% of the total paper (since the focus of these assignments is critical thinking). Use your own words and build on the ideas of others. When material is copied verbatim from external sources, it MUST be enclosed in quotes. The references should be cited within the text and listed at the end of the assignment in the References section (preferably in APA format).
Organization: Subheadings should be used to organize your paper according to question.
Grammar and Spelling: While no points are deducted for minor errors, assignments are expected to adhere to standard guidelines of grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence syntax. Points may be deducted if grammar and spelling impact clarity.
