Tiffani

Tiffani is a 16-year-old heterosexual Caucasian female referred to Teens First after being arrested for prostitution. Teens First is a court-mandated teen counseling program for adolescent survivors of sexual exploitation and human trafficking. At Teens First, social workers provide a holistic range of services for their clients. Tiffani has been provided room and board in the residential treatment facility and will meet with a social worker to address her multiple needs and concerns. Tiffani has been arrested three times for prostitution in the last 2 years. Right before her most recent charge, a new state policy was enacted to protect youth 16 years and younger from prosecution and jail time for prostitution. The Safe Harbor for Exploited Children Act allows the state to define Tiffani as a sexually exploited youth and therefore not imprison her. She was mandated to services at the agency, unlike her prior arrests when she had been sent to detention. Tiffani had been living with a man named Donald since she was 14 years old. She had had limited contact with her family members and had not been attending school. She described Donald as her “husband” (although they were not married) and her only friend. During intake, it was noted that Tiffani had multiple bruises and burn marks on her legs and arms. She reported that Donald had slapped her and burned her with cigarettes when he felt she did not behave. Tiffani has been treated for several sexually transmitted infections (STIs) at local clinics and is currently on an antibiotic for a kidney infection. It appears that over the last 2 years, Tiffani has had neither outside support nor interactions with anyone beyond Donald and some other young women also being trafficked.

Childhood and Early Adolescence During social work sessions, Tiffani gave a rather in-depth description of her childhood. At first, Tiffani provided a family history that was filled with only happy memories. She remembered her life up to age 8 as filled with moments of joy. She remembered going to school, playing with her sister, and her mother and father getting along. As the social worker and Tiffani continued to meet, Tiffani shared what she remembered as a gradual but definitive change in the family dynamics around the time when she turned 8 years old. She remembered being awakened by music and laughter in the early hours of the morning. When she went downstairs to investigate, she saw her parents along with her uncle Nate passing a pipe back and forth between them. She remembered asking them what they were doing and her mother saying, “adult things,” and putting her back in bed.

Tiffani remembered being woken up by noise several times after that and seeing her father and her uncle passing the pipe between them. Sometimes her mother was there, and sometimes she was not. Often when her mother was not there, Nate would see her and ask her to come over. Her father would ask her to show them the dance that she had learned at school. When Tiffani danced, her father and Nate would laugh and offer her pocket change. Sometimes they were joined by their friend Jimmy. For years, the music and noise downstairs continued, later accompanied by screams and shouting and sounds of people fighting. One morning, Shondra yelled at Robert to “get up and go to work.” Tiffani and Diana saw Robert come out of the bedroom and slap Shondra so hard she was knocked down. Robert then went back into the bedroom. Tiffani also noticed significant changes in her home’s appearance. The home, which was never fancy, was almost always neat and tidy. Tiffani noticed that dust would gather around the house, dishes would pile up in the sink, dirt would remain on the floor, and clothes would go for long periods of time without being washed. Tiffani remembered cleaning her own clothes and making meals for herself and her sister during this period. Sometimes Tiffani and her sister would come downstairs in the morning to find empty beer cans and liquor bottles on the kitchen table along with the pipe. Her parents would be in the bedroom, and Tiffani and her sister would leave the house and go to school by themselves. Tiffani was unclear if her parents were working or how the bills were paid. Often there was not enough food to feed everyone, and she would go to bed hungry. During one session, Tiffani described an incident of sexual abuse. One night she was awoken by her uncle Nate and his friend Jimmy in her room. Her parents were apparently out, and they were the only adults in the home. They asked her if she wanted to come downstairs and show them the new dances she learned at school. Once downstairs, Nate and Jimmy put some music on and started to dance. They asked Tiffani to start dancing with them, which she did. While they were dancing, Jimmy spilled some beer on her. Nate said she had to go to the bathroom to clean up. Nate, Jimmy, and Tiffani all went to the bathroom. Nate asked Tiffani to take her clothes off so she could get in the bath. Tiffani hesitated to do this, but Nate insisted it was okay since he and Jimmy were family. Tiffani eventually relented and began to wash up. Nate would tell her that she missed a spot and would scrub the area with his hands. After this incident, others occurred, with increasing levels of molestation each time. Tiffani felt very bad about this but had difficulty explaining why, even to herself. She was very afraid of everyone in her family except her sister, Diana. She was also afraid that Diana might be subjected to the same thing. The last time it happened, when Tiffani was 14, she pretended to be willing to dance for them, but when she got downstairs, she ran out the front door of the house. Tiffani ran down the block, intending to go to her school because it was one of the few places she felt safe. She said she was barefoot and in her pajamas, and it was very cold. About halfway to her school, a car stopped, and a man inside asked her where she was going. When Tiffani replied that she was going to school, the man said that it was the middle of

the night. Tiffani did not want to tell him the whole story, so she told him that there was trouble at home and she just wanted to go to school early.

Donald

The man introduced himself as Donald and asked her why she did not go to her boyfriend’s house. When Tiffani said she did not have a boyfriend, Donald replied that if she had a boyfriend, she would have somebody to take care of her and keep her safe when these things happened. He then offered to be her boyfriend. Tiffani did not say anything, but when Donald said he’d give her a ride, she agreed and got in the car. Donald took Tiffani to his apartment, explaining that the school would be closed for hours. When they got to his apartment, Donald fed Tiffani and gave her beer, explaining that it would help keep her warm. Tiffani did not like the taste of the beer, but at Donald’s insistence, she drank it. When Tiffani was drunk, Donald began kissing her, and they had sex. Tiffani knew about sex from school and some of her girlfriends, but she had never had it with anyone before. She was grateful to Donald because he had helped her get away from Nate and Jimmy. Donald had also told her that he loved her and they would be together forever. Tiffani was afraid that if she did not have sex, Donald would not let her stay—and she had nowhere else to go. For the next 3 days, Donald brought her food and beer and had sex with her several more times. Donald told Tiffani that she was not allowed to do anything without his permission. This included watching TV, going to the bathroom, taking a shower, and eating and drinking. Donald bought Tiffani a dress, explaining to her that she was going to “find a date” and get men to pay her to have sex with her. When Tiffani said she did not want to do that, Donald hit her several times. Donald explained that if she didn’t do it, he would get her sister, Diana, and make her do it instead. Out of fear for her sister, Tiffani relented and did what Donald told her to do. Tiffani and the social worker talked often about her continued desire to be reunited with Donald. They discussed what Donald represented for Tiffani and why he was such an important part of her life. She often described him as the person who “saved” her and felt she owed much to him. She vividly remembered the fear she felt the nights Nate and Jimmy touched her, and she was convinced they would have raped her that last night if she hadn’t left.

According to the theory of false claim act liability commonly referred to as “implied false certification

Discussion response

analyn

Part A False Claim Act

Hypothesis: According to the theory of false claim act liability commonly referred to as “implied false certification” when defendant submits claim, it impliedly certifies compliance with all conditions of payment. The implied false certification theory ca be a basis for liability

Federal Civil False Claims Act (FCA) The civil FCA, 31 United States Code (U.S.C.) Sections 3729–3733, protects the Federal Government from being overcharged or sold substandard goods or services. The civil FCA imposes civil liability on any person who knowingly submits, or causes the submission of, a false or fraudulent claim to the Federal Government. The terms “knowing” and “knowingly” mean a person has actual knowledge of the information or acts in deliberate ignorance or reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of the information related to the claim. No specific intent to defraud is required to violate the civil FCA. Examples: A physician knowingly submits claims to Medicare for medical services not provided or for a higher level of medical services than actually provided. Penalties: Civil penalties for violating the civil FCA may include recovery of up to three times the amount of damages sustained by the Government as a result of the false claims, plus financial penalties per false claim filed. Additionally, under the criminal FCA, 18 U.S.C. Section 287, individuals or entities may face criminal penalties for submitting false, fictitious, or fraudulent claims, including fines, imprisonment, or both

Settlement Based on Electronic Health Records Incentive Program (real-life Case)

 On May 31, 2019, the DOJ announced that Coffey Health System in Kansas agreed to pay $250,000 to settle claims that they violated the False Claims Act.  The Coffey Health System operates a 25-bed critical access hospital located in Burlington, Kansas.  The DOJ alleged that Coffey Health System falsely attested that it conducted and/or reviewed security risk analyses in accordance with the requirement under the electronic health records (EHR) incentive program in 2012 and 2013.  The DOJ specifically alleged that the Coffey Health System (Violation) falsely attested that they satisfied the measures of requirements for analyzing and addressing security risk to electronic health records. 

Compliance to minimize exposure risks

A new fact sheet issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) explains hospital payment adjustments under the Medicare Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program.

Eligible hospitals that failed to demonstrate meaningful use of EHRs for calendar year 2016 are subject to a payment adjustment for fiscal year (FY) 2018, which began Oct. 1. Payment adjustments are applied as a reduction to the hospital Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS) percentage increase for FY 2018. Eligible hospitals that failed to attest will see a 75 percent decrease to the FY 2018 IPPS annual payment update.

CMS has contacted hospitals that did not meet meaningful use requirements or file a timely hardship exception and are therefore subject to the penalty in FY 2018. The fact sheet contains additional information on hardship exceptions, which are granted on a case-by-case basis in four categories: infrastructure; new eligible hospitals; unforeseen circumstances; or EHR vendor issues. 

Eligible Hospitals

An eligible hospital demonstrates meaningful use by successfully attesting through either the CMS Medicare EHR Incentive Programs Attestation System (https://ehrincentives.cms.gov/hitech) or through its state’s Medicaid EHR Incentive Program attestation system

Part B Anti- Kickback Statute or stark Law

Hypothesis: Prohibit medical providers from paying or receiving kickbacks, remuneration or anything of value in exchange for referrals of patients who will receive treatment paid for by the government healthcare programs such Medicare and Medicaid.

Under Federal law and federal state laws- The AKS, 42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7b(b), makes it a crime to knowingly and willfully offer, pay, solicit, or receive any remuneration directly or indirectly to induce or reward patient referrals or the generation of business involving any item or service reimbursable by a Federal health care program, When a provider offers, pays, solicits, or receives unlawful remuneration, the provider violates the AKS, The Physician Self-Referral Law, 42 U.S.C. Section 1395nn, often called the Stark Law, prohibits a physician from referring patients to receive “designated health services” payable by Medicare or Medicaid to an entity with which the physician or a member of the physician’s immediate family has a financial relationship, unless an exception applies.

Financial Arrangements with Emergency Room Physicians

 On April 30, 2019, the DOJ announced that a former CEO of Health Management Associates (HMA) agreed to pay $3.46 million to resolve false billing and kickback allegations.  This settlement resolved allegations that the hospital former CEO caused HMA to knowingly submit false claims to government healthcare programs by admitting patients that could have been treated on a less costly, outpatient basis.  The settlement also resolved allegations that the hospitals CEO caused HMA to pay remuneration to emergency department physicians in return for referrals, This settlement resolves allegations that the former CEO of this hospital chain caused HMA to pressure emergency department physicians to increase inpatient admissions by recommending admission without regard to medical necessity.  The DOJ also alleged that the former hospital chain CEO caused HMA to pay remuneration to EmCare, a physician staffing company, to recommend admission when patients should have been treated on an outpatient basis.   The DOJ also alleged that the former HMA CEO caused HMA to make certain bonus payments to EmCare emergency department physicians and tied EmCare’s retention of existing contracts and receipt of new contracts to increase admissions of patients who came to the emergency department, HMA and EmCare have already resolved their liability to the government related to these allegations.  In September 2018, HMA entered into a civil settlement under which it paid $61.8 million to the government.  HMA also entered into a non-prosecution agreement with the criminal division’s fraud section under which it paid $35 million. 

Violation- False billing, HMA to knowingly submit false claims to government healthcare programs by admitting patients that could have been treated on a less costly, outpatient basis. also violation of physician in return of referrals.

Compliance with Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Policies and Procedures

Policies, procedures, and practices available to help health care organizations remain compliant with both the Stark Law and the AKS. The most overarching way organizations can maintain compliance with these laws is by ensuring their compliance programs are effective and operating as recommended by the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG). In the OIG’s Compliance Program Guidance documents¹, there are seven key elements of an effective compliance program including: Implementing written policies, procedures and standards of conduct, Designating a compliance officer and compliance committee, Conducting effective training and education, Developing effective lines of communication, Conducting internal monitoring and auditing, Enforcing standards through well-publicized disciplinary guidelines, Responding promptly to detected offenses and undertaking corrective action, The most notable of these elements as it relates to compliance with the Stark Law and the AKS is implementing written policies, procedures and standards of conduct. By following necessary policies and procedures for these laws, health care organizations can avoid instances of improper referrals and other remuneration fraud or abuse.

Brand of dualism referred to as interactionism

Instructions
Overview

According to the doctrine of dualism, the mind is a nonphysical substance. In this way, dualism asserts that the mind is quite different from the physical brain. Moreover, according to a particular brand of dualism referred to as interactionism, the nonphysical mind interacts with the physical body/brain. Thus, for example, when one is thinking about writing this essay, the interactionist holds that our thought processes are in some sense nonphysical in character while still being tied to the brain in necessary ways.

Physicalism, on the other hand, asserts just the opposite of dualism. According to physicalism, the mind is purely a physical substance. Said differently, the mind is the brain. Under this account of the mind-body problem, of which there are different types, all processes that we would typically refer to as mental in character (thinking, doubting, questioning, dreaming, consciousness, unconsciousness) are merely underlying brain processes in action, i.e., particular configurations of neurons firing in a manner that is governed by natural law.

Essay Question: Critically evaluate either the doctrine of interactionism or physicalism. In other words, which view gives a more plausible answer to the fundamental question raised by the mind- body problem? Note that one can examine physicalism as a whole or restrict the scope of your essay to a particular type of physicalism.

Doctrine of Interactionism

 (Course Instructor)

(University Affiliation)

(Student’s Name)

(Date)

Introduction

            What really is the mind-body problem? Though the doctrine of mind-body problem has boggled the minds of sophists for a while, a number of prepositions have been advanced to explain the problem. The most common alternatives that have been widely accepted are the mind-body dualism and the physicalism. Physicalism asserts that there is no nonphysical aspect of a person, where self is the product of the activities of the body. The mind-body dualism points that though the body and mind are different, they casually interact with each other. The commonly referred version of dualism is the interactionism, which was advanced by Descartes in the 17th century. Although the concept of physicalism and interactionism explain the mind-body problem, interactionism offers more plausible reasons than the concept of physicalism. The doctrine of Interactionism may have gaps and may not be the only doctrine that explains the nature of mind-body problem, however, it offers more powerful and relatable ways I which one can understand the world around them.

Evaluation of the Doctrine of Interactionism

            The interactionism doctrine of thinking offers a powerful way in which one can connect the physical body events and the events of the mind. According to (Lawhead, 2014) the body is a physical substance, whereas the mind is a nonphysical thing. As rightly put by Descartes in his preposition about dualism, thinking is dualistic in nature. Human beings possess the body and the soul or mind, which does the thinking. In order for one to make a decision, the mind must generate some form of energy that directs specific organs of the body to perform certain functions. The event provides the dualist with a mindset that they can bring fourth change in the world. The mind is distinctively separate from the body, though it may not be physical in nature. It is from the events of the mind that one can make decisions or one can act on certain stimuli.

            A case in example is where a dog backs when one approaches a restricted place. In such an event, when the dog backs, the sound of backing is captured by the ears and relayed to the brain. The mind through electrical energy exchanges triggers some response, which will allow the individual to make a decision, whether to approach the place or retreat. Such is the relationship between the mind and the body that allows humans to make decisions in life. The doctrine does not make the thinker helpless neither does it make them to be vulnerable to the nature’s will, but rather places them on the “steering will”.             The doctrine of interactionism also offers more plausible explanation with regard to the mind-body problem over the physicalism in that even the doctrine of physicalism acknowledges the presence of human soul though it disagrees on the presence of physical interaction between the two. The question then would be, if the doctrine………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Forensic Competency to Stand Trial Assessment

Introduction

            An important aspect of the adjudication process in the criminal justice system of the United States is that all the defendants must be accorded a fair trial (Weiner, Goldstein, & Otto, 2012) and (Pirelli, Gottdiener, & Zapf, 2011). The concept of mental competency as a prerequisite for trial process was established in the judicial system by the Supreme Court’s Dusky decision of 1960 (Pirelli, Gottdiener, & Zapf, 2011). Since then, a psycholegal concept known as Competency to Stand Trial (CST) was introduced. The CST process is done among the criminal justice victims to assure that they are fit and competent to stand criminal trials and respond sufficiently to charges leveled against them.

Death penalty is commonly referred to as the capital punishment which refers to the action taken by the government as sanction to discipline and punish law offenders who have been found guilty of committing crime equitable to death

Death penalty is commonly referred to as the capital punishment which refers to the action taken by the government as sanction to discipline and punish law offenders who have been found guilty of committing crime equitable to death. The government conducts the act in line with the provision of the court of law and order. The execution of the death penalty is termed as death penalty or death punishment. The penalties are normally conducted as punishment. The criminals mostly posted on perpetrators of international and country wars and conflicts and treason activities, regional wars and crimes leading to massive deaths and killings, genocide activities and all sort of crimes against the will and desires of the humanity. In most cases the government executes the death punishment through beheading of the criminals. However, most countries have gone against the death penalty terming it unconstitutional and against the will of the human rights. The European Union has gone further to describe the fundamental rights and termed use and implication of death penalties as violation of human rights. Some countries however still apply the death penalties such as Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan countries to punish the law offenders and criminals. The U.S judicial system has also manipulated the death penalty to safeguard the human rights. I personally oppose corporal death punishment and I support the abolishment of the inhuman act since it ruins and interferes with the human rights.

The death penalty is an infringement of human rights and ought to in this way be annulled. Different types of disciplines ought to be applied as opposed to death retribution. Most nations practice capital punishment on murder, war, fear monger acts or injustice cases (Acker, 2017). A few nations then again do the death penalty on inappropriate behavior and wrongdoings, for example, assault cases, homosexuality activities, incest and detailed infidelity hand with strict violations. Some likewise lead the punishment on tranquilize dealers and traffickers. China executes capital punishment on genuine defilement cases just as human dealers and traffickers. In any case, casualties of weakness and disobedience offenses in military missions face capital punishment.

The death penalty is probably the best infringement of Human Rights. This torment of life is against the Human Rights Charter. Nobody has the privilege to end a real existence, in any event, as indicated by the scriptural implication of life. The brutal and savage act is against God’s instructions and it ought to be exceptionally censured. Human activists consistently restrict the death penalty. It ought to be canceled as it denies the Human Rights under the International Human reprieve (Garrett, B. L. (2019). An equal move ought to be made however not just passing. Detainment of the influenced unfortunate casualties ought to be directed with an end goal to rebuff the lawbreakers. We can generally show suspects and unfortunate casualties without delivering enduring in them all in all. Regard individual flexibility and ownership of life.

The death penalty results into responsibility of treachery by executing honest people wrongly. Not all cases have the vital and enough proof in this way cases have been accounted for on improper execution of guiltless individuals to confront capital punishment. Imagine a scenario where executions are begun against the initiators and propellers of capital punishment by human activists. In the United States for example, somewhere in the range of 1992 and 2004, thirty nine demise executions were led without full proof (Ulmer.et.al, 2019). The unfortunate casualties were not especially seen as liable rather advantage of uncertainty was utilized to give the decision. Nonetheless, the recently designed DNA tests issue some proof before the last execution has reinstalled trust in the lives of unfortunate casualties. The confirmations from DNA tests have forestalled untimely execution of around fifteen demise cases promptly it was created and demonstrated. As of now, more than one – hundred and fifty nine detainees have gotten away ‘passing barely’ because of no proof by DNA (Stinneford, 2018). Numerous obscure cases are additionally accepted to exist since not generally the exploited people can pay for the DNA or even the obstruction of the outcomes along these lines coming about into an inappropriate execution. Safeguard faculty consistently focus their endeavors on the customers who have their lives spared instead of focusing on expanding odds of endurance of the ‘demise’ respondents. Unseemly executions can be because of inappropriate court methods. For example, the contention about the abuse of the Drugs Act in Singapore by the Amnesty universal expresses that; suppositions were utilized for indictment. There was no reasonable confirmation. There is a widespread assurance of guiltlessness until an injured individual is seen as blameworthy (Franklin , 2016).

According to the case for Rodney Reed regardless of the evidence provided on innocence, it was evident that no matter what criminal action had been undertaken, the judicial systems needed to obey the human rights. The background of the case was where Mr. Reed was punished following the flow of the new evidences provided in the court of law. His execution was expected to be steady and not cruel not to undermine and limit the provisions of the rule of law. Following Reed’s and other prisoners appeal letter through what is commonly referred to as the friend of the court, they appeared before the jurisdiction. Rodney Reed had been the main suspect for the killing of Stacey Stites who was aged 19 years by the year 1996. She had been raped and dumped across the road at Bastrop. After years of investigations and DNA tests, it was evident that the sperms collected inside the body were linked to Mr. Reed.

Capital punishment is a for the most part a discipline directed principally to exploited people from racial and ethnic minorities and other poor monetary foundations than just to all lawbreakers. The blade cuts just the less favored, for instance, passing cases rotating about African Americans are increasingly inclined to confront capital punishments and the dark litigants are bound to confront capital punishment in cases including white exploited people.

Areas have made feelings intended to forbid capital punishments. For example, the sixth Protocol and the thirteenth Protocol intended to abrogate harmony and different conditions individually were laid out under the European Convention on Human rights were intended to forestall capital punishments. Then again the second Protocol offered agree to America and Canada to annul capital punishment (Garrett, B. L., & Kovarsky, L. B. (2018). Different associations in the universal organization have improved the nullification of capital punishment. The EU censures the capital punishments in European nations with the exception of in Russia however capital punishment cases are uncommon since 1996. The convention nullifies any type of capital punishment which has been marked by practically all nations in Europe. As of late, Poland has acknowledged to sign the bargain to abrogate the death penalty.

Some African nations inside the Sub-Saharan district have additionally clung to nullification of capital punishment. In 2009, Burundi canceled all capital punishments regardless of what wrongdoing, Gabon likewise abrogated capital punishment in 2010 and on 2012, and Benin watched the International Covenant on Civil and Political rights by sanctioning the Protocol on capital punishment (Ulmer, J. T., & Hanrath, L. (2019). Practically all nations have expressed a cancelation of this punishment, even the most up to date nation the South Sudan is among the one hundred and eleven individuals from the United Nations association who completely confirm and bolster the expulsion of capital punishment as concurred by the organs General Assembly. The individuals marked duplicates of the adherence bargain to end and forestall any capital punishment regardless of what wrongdoing and offers a counter strategy for managing violations of death.

In conclusion, the death penalty is against humankind and instead some other lighter punishments should be adopted. The enforcements should include imprisonment, forgiving them and issuing them with new advisory roles in the community to act as ambassadors and guidance and counselling personnel to warn and educate others against crime in the society. I would like to propose immediate implementations of the alternatives in the constitutions and rule of laws for various countries especially the ones who still retain capital punishments. All in all, it is against the Human Rights, Amnesty International, and other universal associations to execute capital punishment to any injured individual rather different disciplines ought to be authorized like detainment. It is in this manner pivotal to look out for such allegations consequently non-legislative associations and human activists ought to be on bleeding edge to forestall any infringement. A few nations anyway still apply the capital punishments, for example, Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan nations to rebuff the law wrongdoers and criminals which is against the United States of America Judicial Systems and the rule of law. I for one contradict corporal demise discipline and I bolster the abolishment of the brutal capital punishment (death penalty) since it ruins and meddles with the human rights.

Disrespectful or inappropriate drawings will be referred to the administration.

Please use processing programming, to draw a respectful image of Mr. Petrella. Use basic shapes connected in a meaningful way to create this image. This is worth 75 to 95 points depending on the effort and quality of your work. Those who go beyond a respectful image will be referred to the proper administrator for disciplinary action.

Add your work to the upload section of schoology for this assignment. You can also copy your work into the window as text. I will then recopy your work into the programming shell to run it.

Follow the basic instructions on writing code found in the tutorial videos you watched this past weekend, linked to here(additional links provided below this document):

https://cwnchsintroductiontoengineering.weebly.com/processing-tutorials-assignment.html

All programs must use a programming word called,” size() “,to define a display window. All student must use the width and height of 1000, so as to have all the programs format properly for the big screen. An example is below, you can use this example by copying it into your programming window.

void setup() {

size(1000, 1000);

background(153);

}

void draw() {

rect(25, 150, 50, 50);

}

Maximum of 100 points for the processing assignment.

5 to 10 shapes used in the processing assignment can earn 75 to 79 points

11 to 15 shapes used in the processing assignment can earn 80 to 85 points

16 -20 shapes used in the processing assignment will earn 86 to 95 points

Shapes used will not alone earn the grade, the logical use of the shapes and the skill and commitment to detail will also play a part in this assignment.

Those students that use 16-20 shapes are also eligible for up to 5 additional points. Add animation, another drawing i.e. something extra to show you have more mastery of this program than just drawing with shapes. Students using simple code in a non-meaningful way to just build points will not be allowed as the meaningful nature will be determined by Mr. Petrella. Thus bonus points are for students working hard to follow the spirit of the assignment, while meeting the milestones of shape counts.

Disrespectful or inappropriate drawings will be referred to the administration.

As we wind done the class do not forget to do your best as this project is a worth a lot of points.
