From the Paper
" Leonardo had several purposes in writing the manuscripts that are known as his notebooks. It would be difficult to make a complete list of every subject that he addressed in them, but the briefest list shows his reasons for writing. The pages include plans for books to be written, notes on Latin (which he did not study until he was over 40), notes on anatomy, geology, astronomy, botany and optics, lists of his own notebooks, speculations on proportion, observations of natural phenomenon, numerous speculations about the movement of water, long passages from books he had read, lists of words he had learned, mathematics he was learning, designs for machines and weapons, calculations of various kinds, reminders of questions he wanted to ask, ideas about painting, jokes and riddles he had been told, and sketches related to almost all these subjects.

Abstract
This paper explores learning disabilities that affect academic performance. Some of the more common forms of this category of learning disability is dyslexia (problems reading, or understanding what is written), dysgraphia (problems with handwriting or writing in a way the makes sense), and dyscalculia (problems with abstract math or calculations). The paper discusses how children with learning disabilities may be affected, how depression is often the primary cause of learning disabilities in children, treatment approaches, and the importance of the teacher in obtaining help for children with learning disabilities.

From the Paper
"The connection between learning disabilities and depression needs to be taken seriously by teachers. Students with poor reading skills are more likely to drop out of school and have a suicide rate that is three times that of the normally reading population. The school plays an important role in the development of the child's emotional development. Difficulties at school can lead to difficulties in the emotional, social and family functioning of the child. It is estimated that only 1/4 to 1/3 of the children needing school receive the needed treatment."

Abstract
In this proposal, the writer provides an overview of the learning disorder "dysgraphia" which describes a learning disabled person that has difficulty interpreting their own written language or handwriting. The paper begins with a synopsis or review of learning disabilities and a detailed description of the learning disability reviewed. Further the writer presents an overview of best practices, curriculum adaptations and other changes a teacher and student may make to enhance the learning experience of a learning disabled child.

Lesson Plan 1: Research Report
Lesson Plan 2: Writing Poetry
From the Paper
" The goal of differentiated instruction is to meet the needs of the student with dysgraphia, so they are able to comprehend their own written word and transcribe their thoughts in a way they can understand, and in a way that their teachers and other peers can understand. In this instance the student has difficulty writing in their own "handwriting" and then making sense out of the writing produced. The goal is to help the student by developing a modified approach to learning so that he can participate in a normal, general education classroom. This will help the student feel less like an "outcast" and will thus help the student bolster his self-esteem, which may then improve his outlook on life and commitment to learning."

Augmentative and Alternative Communications Systems, 2007.
This paper discusses the benefits of augmentative and alternative communications (AAC) systems.

Abstract
The paper discusses how augmentative and alternative communications systems have dramatically impacted and enhanced the ability of impaired individuals to function and communicate. The paper describes how these systems replace or augment speech by use of gesture and body language, manual signs, handwriting and communication aids. The paper relates the history and development of AAC systems and focuses on the ways they help those children who cannot verbally communicate.
From the Paper
"Although the majority of individuals take their ability to verbally communicate for granted, this is a disability that millions of individuals suffer from. Individuals with severe communication disorders do not have the luxury of being able to clearly and succinctly communicate with others through speech. This problem has been a persistent one within society and that has only recently been greatly helped by the creation of tools for those with communication disorders."

Forensics Science, 2005.
This paper discusses the various techniques used in forensic science, which is any part of science related to the law.
4,595 words (approx. 18.4 pages), 5 sources, MLA, £ 75.95

Abstract
This paper relates that, although forensic science appears to be a recent development, the modern medical-legal tactic to criminal investigations started in 12th century England when King Richard I enacted the "Office of the Coroner". The author points out that the scientific analysis of evidence left at the scene of a crime such as blood, semen, shreds of clothing, hair, weapons, tire treads and other physical evidence can seem more compelling to a jury than the evidence of eyewitnesses. The paper states that the purpose of crime scene investigation is to help understand what happened and to recognize the responsible person while carefully documenting the conditions at a crime scene and distinguishing all relevant physical evidence for further analysis.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Few areas of examination at trial can seem as intimidating as the prospect of taking on the prosecution's forensic experts. Crime lab reports seem to have this aura of invincibility about them that lead few trial lawyers to tackle their conclusions head on in front of a jury. Maybe it is because some part of us thinks that the reported results are based upon "science", and science, in turn, can be empirically experienced. Hence, we reason, if the stuff can be checked, no lab technician would put things in their report that could easily be shown to be incorrect. Alternatively, maybe, it is because we simply don't understand how tremendously vulnerable to challenge the crime lab work product really is."

Forensic Evidence, 2004.
This paper discusses many aspects of forensic evidence and its impact on court decisions.
2,400 words (approx. 9.6 pages), 10 sources, MLA, £ 46.95

Abstract
This paper defines forensic evidence as the detailed analysis of things found at the crime scene, including apparently vague and elusive pieces of evidence, such as hair, fingerprints, body fluids, and handwriting. The author believes that forensic science suffers from numerous loopholes, structural problems, and technical weaknesses. The paper stresses that forensic evidence should not be treated as a credible or reliable source of information in many cases because one wrong finding can destroy the lives of many, as seen in some recent cases.
From the Paper
"Police have been using forensic science for decades now, but repeated blows to its credibility are likely to hamper its progress in future. For example, even though DNA analysis is one the most popular techniques being used by police but even this sophisticated methodology can give misleading results. World-renowned forensic scientist Dr. Henry Lee offers insight into why DNA evidence may not yield any answers at all in some cases, and why police cannot always depend on DNA samples to identify the offender."

Computer Charting and Health Care, 2004.
An analysis of the effect of computer charting on nursing and health care.

Abstract
This paper discusses the benefits that computer charting has on nursing and health care. The paper contends that one of the major advantages of computer charting is that a patient's medical information can be accessed from anywhere in the hospital. Another advantage described in the paper is that computer charting eliminates the problem of interpreting poor handwriting and suffering from the resulting errors in interpretation. The paper assesses that the greatest benefit of computer charting is that it leads nurses to comply with 'good nursing' methods by providing the essential template for their daily work.
From the Paper
"Technology has changed every significant industry on Earth, and perhaps the industry most affected outside of telecommunications and travel has been health care. Medical innovation goes hand-in-hand with technological innovation, and so many of our most technically advanced procedures depend solely on technology for their success. For instance, the balloon angioplasty has saved countless cardiac patients' lives, but the procedure does not exist without the technology to produce and insert the catheter and the computer imaging that guides the cardiologist in its implementation."
