African studies — The first Chinese in the Nubian and Abyssinian Kingdoms
This is a reading response to an article by Wolbert Smidt on the first Chinese whose presence is
clearly documented in China for the course Foundations in African Studies.
The reading response should be a short essay of approximately 500 words.
The reading response is not about summarising the idea of the articles but to analyse and express your own opinion.
The teacher strongly suggested that I should search for the background of the author and the event in order to do
the response. Please feel free to search for more information (such as the importance of such exchange) needed to

Topic: INFLUENCE OF CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT / ENDORSERS ON CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR: A STUDY OF ENDORSER/ CHANNEL SOURCE CREDIBILITY
ON CONSUMER DECISIONS THROUGH INSTAGRAM.
This study is intended to examine the extent to which celebrity endorsement influences consumer behaviour, premised on the
assumption that brands’ use of celebrity endorsement has an effect on how much consumers become aware, perceive and engage
with the value offerings (products and services) coming from said brands. It is also aimed at investigating the extent to
which celebrity (and other forms of) endorsers influence consumers’ perception of a brand/campaign’s credibility and how that,
in turn, influences consumer behaviour. It also considers the role of Instagram in marketing – particularly, marketing
communications – and how the platform has evolved to become a significant factor, not only in how brand intend to (and do)
communicate their value offerings and engage their consumers (including their use of celebrity endorsers), but also in how
consumers interact with brands, form opinions and perceptions about them, and ultimately choose to (or not to) buy their offerings

Native Americans (first settlers) from 1607 to 1877
Final Paper
Defining what constitutes the American nation, historically, is more difficult than it might at first seem. As the country grew more democratic, one of the central problems to be resolved was determining which groups constituted “of the people” that the government would represent. Should it include all persons, or only white men? The term “the people,” evolved as the America grew and expanded.
For this paper, you will explore the complicated nature of the American nation from 1607 to 1877 by focusing on one group during two periods of time, while examining how their changing roles reflected the limitations and contradictions of the term “of the people.” You will use the group and time periods that you chose in the Week 2 Assignment.
The paper must be five to seven pages in length (excluding title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least four scholarly sources, two for each period of time, other than the textbook to support your argument, all of which must come from the Ashford University Library. You also must include two primary sources that you can also find in the Ashford University Library. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, located within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar.

TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS
You have decided to examine the impact of personality on memory in older adults for your dissertation. In order to examine personality, you have elected to measure this construct using the Ten Item Personality Measure (TIPI, Gosling, Rentfrow, & Swann, 2003) which has been used in other studies examining personality. Before using this test in your own research, what concerns should you have regarding reliability and validity of the test you want to use?
In answering this question:
1. Using this scale as an example, explain at least two different ways to assess reliability. How much reliability would be considered acceptable and why? For your dissertation, what concerns might you have regarding the reliability of your selected scale? Don’t just name your concerns, but also tell why they are concerns. How could you deal with these in your study?
2. Explain at least two different ways to assess validity. What concerns might you have regarding validity measures and why? For your dissertation, what concerns might you have regarding the validity of your selected scale? Don’t just name your concerns, but also tell why they are concerns. How could you deal with these in your study?
3. Discuss one potential cross-cultural challenge you would face in studying personality and how you would respond to this challenge as a researcher.
Topic:
Critical Thinking
Research the topic of leadership and communication. Next, review and analyze the below scenario. Finally, write a paper that addresses these two questions:
What communication strategies are associated with effective leadership?
What does Williams need to do differently to communicate effectively as a leader?
Ben Williams is the CEO of a public relations firm. He has four direct reports who are in charge of different components of his firm including operations, human resources, finance, and administrative support. On a semiannual basis, the firm surveys the employees to assess their level of satisfaction with the leadership.
Williams has noticed a trend in survey results over the last year. Comments and scores indicate the staff is unhappy with the level of communication from the top down. Williams does not understand why this is an issue.
Currently, Williams communicates with staff when there is a problem or if he believes they need to make a change. He does this by telling them exactly what they need to do, but not why they need to do it. Staff often find out about new projects when others have already begun working on them. Williams does not like electronic communications, nor does he believe that meetings are useful. However, as he reviews this trend, he realizes he must change the way he communicates.
Requirements:
Write a 3-4 page paper analyzing this scenario
Include two additional pages for the title and reference page
Include all elements listed below in your paper
Incorporate information you learned in Module 2, Leadership and Communication
Include a minimum of 2 additional references

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROCESSES TO ENHANCE WOMEN ACCESS TOP MANAGERIAL POSITIONS
Please edit per supervisor comments indicated in the attached final proposal document, the literature review and methodology should match the following comments:
My 2 biggest difficulties:
1) Literature review (prelim) – separate leaders and woman and then bring them together. it is difficult to keep the trial. when is it leadership when is it woman
2) research methdology – for such a study you cannot do a questionnaire. You have to do in-depth semi-structured/structured interviews and perhaps a few focus groups. Read the suggestions and relook that entire section please.
You have to collect data for PhD – literature informs your background, burning issues, gaps from there you collect data to fill the gaps
Imagine e,.g. 4 streams of data (literature review / case study from one particular woman’s journey / in-depth interviews / case study) – this gives you rich data that you can mine and really get to a meaningful (not pre-determined/assumed) framework.
The work will be done in Africa, South Africa and Zambia, in the public secor, government entities like the Government Technical Advisory Centre, National Treasury of South Africa and Zambia public sector.

Recovery Approach to Mental Health – Develop a Self Care Plan & Write a Reflective Essay (Part A & Part B)
Task – Recovery Approach to Mental Health (Nursing)
Objective on Assessment Task:
The goal of this task is to demonstrate your understanding of what it might be like to embark on a Recovery/Self-Care journey and to increase your capacity as a nurse to effectively support people in Recovery. The goal is: ‘reduce relying on alcohol when experiencing anxiety’.
The task has two parts – Part A and Part B:
PART A (500 words +/-10%): Develop a Recovery/Self-Care using a ‘self-care’ model with the goal to ‘reduce relying on alcohol when experiencing anxiety (refer below)’. To create the plan use an example such as plans – WRAP (Wellness Recovery Action Plan), Recovery Plans or Wellness Plans (these can be found on the internet. The self-care plan does not need to be in essay form. It should include references to support/guide your care plan. The plan should be (+/- 10%) 500 words.
The plan msut clearly identify:
• What area of your life you want to work on – ‘Reduce relying on alcohol when experiencing anxiety’
• What your goal(s) are – ‘Find other alternatives to manage anxiety, limit drinks to a maximum of 2 in one sitting’
• How you propose achieving your goal(s) – ‘insert fictitious goal’
• What supports you have in place and the role they will play – ‘explain the role of family/friends or therapeutic supporters (such as a counsellor, personal trainer, nutritionist, etc)’
• What challenges you may face and possible ways of addressing these – ‘identify and explain the challenges & how you address these’
• Supporting literature – ‘identify literature to support the goal’
When developing the plan, remember we are modelling a Recovery type journey to experience and learn first-hand what might help and hinder a person on a Recovery journey. Like a Recovery plan it is important that your plan focuses on your strengths and that your journey, whilst utilising supports, is self-directed. Your plan can include images, drawings, pictures and words.
PART B (1500 words +/-10%): : Write a reflective/argumentative Essay on your experience on the ‘self-care’ on reducing ‘reduce relying on alcohol when experiencing anxiety’. Write in first person about your ‘fictitious’ journey as an area in your life where you would like to make positive change, focusing on ‘self-care’ and using a ‘Recovery model’. The essay should be (+/- 10%) 1500 words. It should include references to support/guide your journey.
The essay must clearly reflective & provide an argument re: ‘Self-Care’:
• The need for effective self-care for consumers – why is this important for journey of recovery?
• The need for effective self-care for nurses – why is this important working in this professions?
• What was your experience like receiving support?
• How is your journey progressing and why?
• What factors helped you (internal and external)?
• What factors hindered you (internal and external)? How have you dealt with obstacles?
• How your journey, experiences and learnings might change or inform how you work with people in your future nursing practice
• How your self-care journey, experiences and learnings relate to Recovery
You may consider:
• Your understanding of the role of plans and strategies from a Recovery-orientated perspective. What is important in doing the plans?
• How might this be similar/different to the biomedical model approach?
• What informed your goals & strategies?
• How do you think your experience might compare/contrast to that of consumers (based upon your understanding through the course and research)?
• How will this experience influence your work with consumers and how you dp planning?
Experience of receiving support:
• What was your experience of support (ie where you able to choose who you wanted?0 were they listening to your needs and working ‘with’ you? Were they available how and when you required? Did they ‘support’ you or try ‘direct’ you? Whose needs were being met (yours or theirs)? Did you experience some of the Recovery principles (ie empathy, connection, belief, autonomy etc)? Did you have any other observations? Was this helpful for you? What was unhelpful for you? How did your experience compare/constrast to that of consumers – what was similar/different?

Topic:
quality of life of family carers for patients with dementia
This dissertation will be a secondary proposal and will explore the concept of dementia care but with in-depth focus on quality of life of family carers and the strategy to improve the quality of life. The finding in this dissertation is based on the review of relevant literatures on the quality of life of carers of people with dementia. It was discovered from the literatures reviewed that the quality of life of carers are generally poor which is as a result of the state of the person with dementia. Poor quality of life is usually associated with poor physical health such as hypertension, poor psychological state e.g. depression and anxiety, poor relationship with both care recipient and the general public; owing to poor communication and feeling of stigma and isolation. Most of the research articles reviewed, examined interventions put in place for family carers to support dementia patients. One of the strategies involves the carers going for a break from caring in order to avoid being overwhelmed by the situation. The goal is to improve the quality of life of the family carers using lewin’s model of change.
This change can be done through educational therapy and support groups. The goal is to improve the quality of life of the family carers using lewin’s model of change.
This change can be done through educational therapy and support groups. Leaflets on what dementia is, how it can be managed and supports groups available within the community will be provided to the family carers and be given in their general surgery by theri local GP.

Topic:
Is ‘Drill’ music liable for the UK’s increased crime rate?
Hello, I have chosen you because you have excellent reviews and knowledge in these subject areas. This dissertation needs to be the usual style including an abstract, literature review etc. This is sort of a psychology/criminology/sociology project. I have attached a PDF containing guidelines for the dissertation, it is vital that these are followed as i need to be in the top band for each section. The dissertation itself needs to include a discussion of all possibilities of the question not just one opinion. Topics that need to be explored should include: Violent media forms effects on the brain, Theories about how violent media increases violent behaviour, aggression and desensitisation. Incase you weren’t aware ‘Drill’ music is a new form of rap which has recently blown up in the uk. It is mainly produced by gangs in major cities and contains lyrics that talk about stabbings, shootings, murders, drugs etc. This is said to fuel a vast amount of the gang wars in london and other areas but also been harmful to the audience members and creates a social norm to which they conform to and imitate the behaviour. Here is an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hojXQcOVzg . Thankyou for your time, if you have any questions feel free to contact me (I need to create an evaluation of sources so i have included an originality report in the order therefor i can see every source used in its whole with website links and author names etc included, thankyou)

Study area
7. Ethiopia lies from longitudes 33°E to 55°E and latitudes from 3.5°N to 15°N, covering a land area of 1.13 million km² and including large areas of flat land and gently rolling hilly areas as well as steep mountains and ragged valleys. There is an uneven distribution among regions, mainly varies with regional altitude changes from slightly below sea level to more than 4,000 m above sea level (Figure XX). Thus, the climate of Ethiopia is quite variable across the country. Ethiopia’s climate is mainly tropical steppe climate and subtropical forest climate, the annual average temperature is from 10 to 27°C and the tropical zone receives less than 510 mm rain per annum, while the subtropical zone, which includes most of the highlands, receives 510 to 1,530 mm of rain annually (Mati, 2006). Despite it is difficult to make agricultural planning due to variable rainfall, a large proportion of the Ethiopia gets sufficient for rain-fed crop production. In the north of the country, the rainfall pattern is mainly bimodal, with the shorter starts around March/April and the second one begins around June/July. In some regions, the two seasons combine into a unimodal pattern, which the main crop planting season is from June to October and it almost depends on rain. The main crops in Ethiopia are teff (Eragrostis tef), maize (Zea mays) and wheat (Triticum aestivum Linn.), etc.
writer can know which variables he/she is going to use for climate change and crops etc so that we can discuss more pelase …

2.Regarding the remaining comments to address – ensure this revision is the last one.
In the Article part:
– Section “depth of response to treatment” – Overall quite descriptive – can you add some critique or discussion?
– . Do not delete the content highlighted with the comment; Notably, the previous studies that have obtained significant results concerning the relevance of ADC in evaluation of MM patients in a therapy session are all characterised by small cohorts (Horger et al. 2011; Messiou et al. 2012; Hillengass et al. 2011). — add more studies to support the statement, section Anatomical region and lesion type
Again you have failed to improve the Discussion part as a whole in accordance with this comment: To be honest, it was quite difficult to follow and was too descriptive. Significant reworking is needed to bring to the required standard, you need to include more discussion and critique than is currently evident.

[Revision] Perceptions of NESTs and NNESTs as effective teachers in South Korea
My subject area is education. I need help with the data analysis (results) section of my dissertation. I have uploaded the introduction and methodology sections of my dissertation, which includes my research questions.
There are 3 subject groups, Adult Korean EFL students, native English speaking teachers (NESTs) and non-native English speaking teachers (NNESTs). Participants in each group completed a questionnaire and an Implicit Association Test. I need the data from the questionnaire and the Implicit Association Test appropriately analysed and compared to answer my research questions.
I have also uploaded the questionnaire response data (all in one excel doc), Implicit Association Test data (3 seperate excel docs) and a sample of each questionnaire (3 seperate files).
I have already done some basic analysis on the questionnaire data (Mean, median, mode and standard deviation). The questionnaires are all the same except for question no. 1 (which is the same for NESTs and NNESTs but different for students).
Topic:
The Costly Signaling Model in Game Theory
The question prompt is: Based on the materials from class (see attached below), how convincing do you find the evidence and arguments for the costly signaling model. What are the strengths and weaknesses of this evidence? To what degree are you convinced that this model explains an important component of human social behavior? What additional evidence (experimental, sociological, anthropological, etc) would be particularly helpful for evaluating this model?
Aside from the documents provided (pls cite these, please find three additional sources to cite in answering the these questions as well). Please provide a reference page in the end. I have also attached another word document here called “discussions” is what the TA has said in our discussion board regarding the topic. Be sure to speak about the Nash Equilibrium and Proximate and Ultimate Explanations of thoughts and behaviors as these are recurrent themes in the class. I have attached a lecture slide on these. The writer might find these useful.
Topic:
Gun Violence
Explore a national or global socialissue in your area, at least one of its causes, and a potential solution. For your topic, the social issue should be a problem that can be proven to exist and has potential to be solved.
Begin by stating a thesis that defines the problem, identifies and evaluates at least one aspect of the cause, and offers one potential solution. These three points—problem, cause, and solution—will be used as level I headings for the major parts of the body content.
Requirements:
The paper should be 6-8 pages in length (double-spaced), plus a reference page/title page, and should use a minimum of eight credible sources. The CSU-Global Library is an excellent place to search for credible, scholarly sources.
Document and citation formatting should be in conformity with the CSU-Global Guide to Writing & APA. At the top of your paper, include an open-ended research question that defines the problem and asks how the problem can be solved.
Example/research question: What would it take to reduce obesity in the United States/Ohio?
The research question should be followed by a thesis, which answers the research question by stating a problem, cause, and solution. The thesis can be two sentences long if necessary.
Example/thesis: [Problem] Obesity across the United States is on the rise [Cause] partly due to the amount of trans fats contained in restaurant food. [Solution] One solution would be to regulate the amount of trans fats restaurants are permitted to include in the food they serve and to require restaurants to clearly indicate the level of trans fats contained within each menu item.
NOTE: The sample topic above cannot be used for your project. Topics that should be avoided are those currently being debated widely among media sources. Some topics to avoid include abortion, sex trafficking, gun control, and immigration.

You have just been hired as the chief executive officer (CEO) in a medium-sized organization. The organization is not suffering financially, but neither is it doing as well as it could do. This is largely because the organization is stagnated in old ideas having not kept pace with the changing standards of the sector it serves. It does, however, have a handful of new employees who are eager to see the organization modernize. The organization also has several long-time employees who have remained with the company through the good times and the bad. The Board of Directors feels a sense of loyalty and obligation to these steadfast individuals, but the Board also knows that moving some parts of the operation “off-shore” would be better for the organization. In this assignment, you will discuss how you as a leader would direct this organization through the changes that are necessary for its survival.

Topic:
Leadership Experience
Hello there-
This is an admission essay aiming to show the applicant’s leadership.
Original detailed description of the essay is provided below:
Describe an example of your leadership experience in which you have positively influenced others, helped resolve disputes, or contributed to group efforts over time.
Things to consider: A leadership role can mean more than just a title. It can mean being a mentor to others, acting as the person in charge of a specific task, or a taking lead role in organizing an event or project. Think about your accomplishments and what you learned from the experience. What were your responsibilities?
Did you lead a team? How did your experience change your perspective on leading others? Did you help to resolve an important dispute at your school, church in your community or an organization? And your leadership role doesn’t necessarily have to be limited to school activities. For example, do you help out or take care of your family?
—–
Here is the example I want you to write about:
The parents of the applicant are both firefighters, whose knowledge influenced the applicant since young. After learning that the people in the community, especially kids, are lack of knowledge in preventing careless fires, the applicant (“I”) set up a club in high school and gathered more students of the same interest to share the knowledge in the community by holding events and lectures. At last, the result turned out great, more and more people started to pay attention on firefighting, and him as the founder of the club shows leadership in the community.
—–
Some requirements I want you to talk about in the essay:
– the story provided is not detailed, please fill in the details and make it a fluent, consistent, high-quality story.
– please avoid directly praises of leadership in the essay, our aim is to show it, not to tell it.
– please add minor difficulties to the progress of founding the club and holding the event, so that the story is closer to reality.
– I would highly recommend writing the story from details to broader view, or in other words, do not follow chronological order and start the essay from the event and then talk about how all these things happen and at last talk about the outcome.
– in the conclusion part of the essay, please show some thoughts and opinions of the applicant, like how he likes the outcome and how he thinks this is going to affect the community in the good way.
– word limit is about 300 words
– enclosed file is the applicant’s personal statement and his essay based on his diverse background, may be helpful to you.
– thank you for your effort.

Michelle,
Van Woerkom & De Reuver, 2009 research addressed that fact that transformational leaders can be the predictors of job satisfaction among employees and predict high performance levels amongst international managers within the workplace although the research discovered that some individuals who are placed in managerial positions exhibit transformational leadership styles whiles others do not, which causes a decrease in job satisfaction.
Leslie,
The measure for the study is a self-reporting one and any one who has worked in addictions knows that a addict’s reliably is very low more so when they are in active detox. None of the measures are considered 100% reliable. Because there is no single perfect measure of craving, it is essential that researchers understand the limitations of each measure (Sayette, Shiffman, Tiffany, Niaura, Martin, & Shadel, 2009). My plan for the study is to run an ABAB type of experiment to simplify the procedure.
Lester,
The aim of the research is to determine the impact of charismatic leaders in an organization and relationship between charismatic leadership and employee performance turnover. There have been studies on different typed of leadership, but few studies have been conducted on the effect of charismatic leadership on employee turnover.

Argue (for or against) UNCITRAL Model Law effectiveness in Cross Border Corporate Insolvency.
Notes:
• You must demonstrate understanding of Australia Corporations Act s 581 and s 583, and draw comparison with UK s426 and US broad discretion.
• You must demonstrate high level understanding of Chapter 5 of Australia’s Cross-Border Insolvency Act (not 5.2, 5.4A) and s 601CL of the Corporations Act.
• You must incorporate these cases into your essay Alari [2018] FCA 1067, Edelsten [2016] FCA 1269, Zetta Jet [2018] FCAFC 132, Suk [2016] FCA 1404.
• You must demonstrate understanding of Part 4 of UNCITRAL Cross Border Insolvency Model Laws 2014.
• You must demonstrate comprehension of recent and pending reforms in this area in the jurisdictions you chose, e.g. US (2018), Europe (2017 regulations), Singapore (17/18 reform) etc.
• You must use authoritative report when referencing cases. Mark will be deducted for each reference contradicting AGLC. Foreign laws and precedents must be in the correct AGLC reference.
Hint:
• you start with by researching how US Chapter 11 (or other jurisdictions of your choice) differs from Australian corporate insolvency legislation, look at cases where Australian companies accessed US courts to protect assets from quick sale liquidation. What about Australian creditors seeking recovery in other jurisdictions? Which jurisdiction seeks to be “treaty-shoppers paradise”, and which jurisdiction seeks maximum protection for special classes of local creditors (e.g. employees and tax office priority as unsecured creditor), which jurisdiction seeks to encourage entrepreneurship and risk-taking. Chart UNCITRAL model law enactment against this spectrum.
• Consider your argument on effectiveness – effective against what standard/measurement?
• Your argument may parallel the territorialism vs universalism vs modified universalism debate, but no mark is allocated for historical or theoretical research, mark is only given for arguments backed by cases.
• Remember if you deem the UNCITRAL model law not effective, you must give case evidence to show why European regulation on cross-border insolvency is more effective, theoretical and hypothetical discussions do not strengthen your argument.

Anchoring the agora in archaic and classical Greek poleis (c. 800-300 BCE)
The agora can be considered the foundational space of the Greek polis: a communal space set aside as a podium for civic life. It developed in the centre of the urban fabric, lined with herms, sanctuaries, altars and temples. Beside operating partly or on specific moments as a market place, it was first of all a civic space, the heart of the polis as a social, religious and political community. In all Greek poleis, the agora became an important anchor for political, cultural and religious innovation. The introduction of new gods was successful when they received a sanctuary near the Acropolis or on the agora. Regime change, treaties and incisive legislation were anchored in the polis by collective oath taking on the agora. In sum, the agora was a quintessential element of one of the most conspicuous innovations of ancient Greece, the citizen-state, in which the demos as a collective was sovereign, represented in multiple authoritative bodies.
This PhD project will investigate the creation of the agora in Greek poleis from the Early Iron Age to late classical times, as a place where institutional innovations were anchored in physical terms (environmental context, spatial configuration and architectural design) and as a civic space whose very conception influenced the kind of polis’ institutions founded there. A second objective concerns the choice of its location: were primarily practical considerations (e.g. close to the harbour) involved or also anchoring processes (e.g. close to a pre-existing sanctuary)?

Mediation Regulation vs. Self-Determination 3 pages, 3 reference (M6A2 M6A2: Active Listening Exercise)
What is the value of a mediation agreement if it is broken?
Because the government does not regulate the process of mediation, bringing an agreement to court for legal enforcement against a party who has not upheld their side is not an easy task. In the event the system became more structured, mediation agreements could potentially include prescribed elements and disclosures which may result in more uniformity and aid in decreasing the ambiguity facing mediation and assist those in upholding the agreement.
A few questions you may ask yourself prior to attempting the assignment:
Would the mediation industry benefit from this type of regulation?
Will a more regulated system limit the types of disputes or outcomes that may be achieved?
Does regulated meditation alter the individual’s right to self-determine how they will engage a third party to help resolve a dispute?
For this assignment, please read:
Excerpts of the Uniform Law Commission (The National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws) Uniform Mediation Act

For this assignment, write a 750-1250 word (3-5-pages) paper that will discuss the pros and cons of uniform governmental regulation of the delivery and process of mediation, as well as regulating the mediators.
In your analysis of the impact of uniform governmental regulation on the mediation, be sure to address the following in your paper:
Pros and cons of the cost to government and to the public
Pros and cons of a certification process to becoming a mediator
Pros and cons of any impact this may have on the quick and efficient mediation services the which the public is familiar.

Think about your own campus. List five of the dominant values on your campus. Now list five dominant norms and five artifacts that reflect those values or contradict them.
Do you think your campus culture is different from or typical of most college campus cultures? How do you know this, or why don’t you know enough to answer this question?
Identify some of the visible subcultures on campus. What makes each a subculture rather than just a bunch of people who have something in common?
Do you feel as though you are part of the dominant culture on campus? A microculture? A subculture? A counterculture? Some of these? All of these? Explain.
Why is a campus culture important? How does it influence how you spend your time and energy in college?
Do you think your campus culture has encouraged you to become a more active citizen? Are you engaged with civic activities on campus? Off campus? Why or why not? If not, is there something in your campus culture that has discouraged your active citizenship? If there is, what is it, and what do you think might help change this type of culture?”
Topic: Nutrition
Find a major supermarket, GNC, pharmacy, etc. that carries a variety of dietary supplements and take a few minutes to wander the aisles and examine what they have to offer. Find one supplement that looks to be generally safe for normal use and a second that seems suspicious in some way (iffy, dangerous, misleading, worthless, or unsavory). You don’t need to purchase these supplements, but take some notes about the ingredients, warnings, recommended use, nutrient information. Using the resources in the Dietary Supplements module, as well as the Tolerable Upper Limit Table on pgs 538-541 of the USDA DRI Guide
, discuss why you consider the first supplement to be safe and why you consider the second to be suspect. Be specific with your argument. If there is information in the primary literature about the safety, or risk of taking these substances, feel free to include it.
Exploration of the significance of the spiritual and psychological environment in health care.
Discussion 4.2 – Exploration of the significance of the spiritual and psychological environment in health care.
The seen environment is often evident with the use of your five senses, although it may “fool” you at times. The unseen environment is one which is often harder to detect and can only be perceived indirectly. The struggle which exists in the unseen environment may affect you and your patients more than we realize, thus keeping the focus and being prepared for the unseen becomes important in all nursing encounters.
Respond to the discussion board questions posted:
In what ways does the spiritual and psycho-social environment affect health?
Think of a time when you or someone you know was put into the role of “patient” (either in a hospital or outpatient setting). What impressed you, positively or negatively, in the health care environment?
What print methods might you consider for the first smaller runs? Would you change to a different method if the product does well and goes into larger production runs?
Assume you are given the task of developing retail packaging for a new product. The product and package will be produced in a small town in China and then shipped and sold in the United States.
The product will be small runs at first and the package will be a folding carton with a three color print. What print methods might you consider for the first smaller runs? Would you change to a different method if the product does well and goes into larger production runs? Justify your reasoning and considerations.
Your assignement will be in APA format and must include a properly formatted reference list.

Theme of Reputation in The Crucible
The Crucible Essay
Theme: Reputation
Though it was written in the 1950s in the era of McCarthyism and takes place during the Salem Witch trials, The Crucible is still relevant today. It is a complex play about the dark nature of humanity, how fear and hysteria lead to blame, scapegoats, destruction and cowardice, how power structures influence who has agency and who doesn’t, how some groups of people are more easily swayed than others, and ultimately how belief and religion are two very different things.
You will write an argumentative essay in which you analyze a recent event through the lens of The Crucible, explaining how it is either a type of modern day witch hunt, or it has the danger of becoming one.
Some topics to consider: The presidential election, the outing of Harvey Weinstein and others, the targeting of certain ethnic groups as terrorists, kneeling during the American anthem at NFL games, social media “witch hunts,” #metoo, freedom of religion, the campaign against refugees, etc… I’d like it to be something within the last ten years please.
There are many ways to organize this paper. You could focus on one thematic idea—like on fear and hysteria. Or you may want to focus on power. Regardless, your paper should explore how the event is a type of “witch hunt” or at least has the potential and why. You will also want to relate it to The Crucible as you write, explaining what is either similar or different about the two.

Introduction
The purpose of the paper.
prepare a report on the ways that commercial (and other types of) accommodation providers are making use of home to market their ‘offering’.
You have also been tasked with suggesting ways your organisation might make use of these concepts and why.
2. Background to business (Airbnb)
The business for which you are consulting for. It can be existing or one you created . Write a brief paragraph outlining its location, target market and facilities
3. The Concept of Home
Explain the concept of home.Remember to include intangible aspects, feelings experiences, togetherness, warmth, connection etc. as well as the tangibles.
Whilst globalization—in this case the rise of the trans national hotel corporation-has facilitated the ability for more and more people to travel it has also led to a disconnect between place and hotel.
That is the hotel became about replicating the home of the traveller, rather than be a representation of the home of the people who lived in the place being visited!
However, as tourists have become more sophisticated (that is they become more experienced as they travel more often) they have started to change their behaviours. Whilst initially travelling away from home meant the mitigation of risk—increasingly tourists are understanding that in order to have an authentic or meaningful experience then one needs to engage with not just the landscape through which they travel but also the people who call these places home.
4. How Accommodation providers are making use of the Home Concept
How existing operators are using the concept of home. As a consultant describe and give examples of what existing companies are doing .
5. Creating the Home experience for Airbnb
This is the main part of your report, how your organization will use the concept of home . Take the theory and apply it. Be creative! Give specific details in all aspects of what your business offers.

Shakespeare’s Use of War
In the plays Anthony and Cleopatra, Coriolanus and Henry the VI, Shakespeare manages to present the theme of war in various tones. By tracing leading character arcs (or journeys) both symbolically and textually, the theme of war (and possibly any theme) can be observed in a context that provides us with a road map of narrative techniques. In these plays, politics, social status and the pursuit of power, propel motives forward. Although similar, by comparing character arcs with one another, the treatment of these social themes; in this case being within the guise of war, can be further explored to distinguish the variety of ways a theme such as war, may encompass multiple social narratives.

Topic: Race, class and gender
Comment on the following observation:
“Social class has a significant impact on one’s physical health, ability to receive adequate medical care and nutrition, and life expectancy.”
As part of your answer you might consider the following:
(1)While gender and race play significant factors in explaining healthcare inequality in the United States, socioeconomic status is the greatest determining factor in an individual’s level of access to healthcare.
(2) Social determinants of health are the economic and social conditions, and their distribution among the population, that influence individual and group differences in health status.
(3) They are risk factors found in one’s living and working conditions (such as the distribution of income, wealth, influence, and power), rather than individual factors (such as behavioral risk factors or genetics) that influence the risk for a disease, injury, or vulnerability to disease or injury.
(4) Social determinants of health are the economic and social conditions, and their distribution among the population, that influence individual and group differences in health status.
(5) Health inequality is the term used in a number of countries to refer to those instances whereby the health of two demographic groups (not necessarily ethnic or racial groups) differs despite comparative access to health care services.
Discuss and support the business’s socially responsible reputation.
My report is based on a business being socially responsible and all of the initiatives it takes to ensure it. I included the word doc with instructions straight from my professor.

Annotation of a Quantitative Research Article
You will submit the annotation of a quantitative research article on a topic of your interest.
An annotation consists of three separate paragraphs that cover three respective components: summary, analysis, and application. These three components convey the relevance and value of the source. As such, an annotation demonstrates your critical thinking about, and authority on, the source. This week’s annotation is a precursor to the annotated bibliography assignment due in Week 10.
An annotated bibliography is a document containing selected sources accompanied by a respective annotation of each source. In preparation for your own future research, an annotated bibliography provides a background for understanding a portion of the existing literature on a particular topic. It is also a useful first step in gathering sources in preparation for writing a subsequent literature review as part of a dissertation.
Please review the assignment instructions below and click on the underlined works for information about how to craft each component of an annotation.
Annotate one quantitative research article from a peer-reviewed journal on a topic of your interest.
Provide the reference list entry for this article in APA Style followed by a three-paragraph annotation that includes:
A summary
An analysis
An application as illustrated in this example
Format your annotation in Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced. A separate References list page is not needed for this assignment.

“Autobiographical Memory is an Accurate Retelling of Our Lives”
Words: 2000 words, Reference APA style
Paragraph 1: Explanation/example of false memory
•What is a false memory
•Malleability of autobiographical memory explanation, example and prevalence
•Biological + cognitive perspective on how memory is malleable
Paragraph 2: Literature review of false memories
Paragraph 3: Critically evaluate the evidence
•Critically evaluate the evidence from the case studies
•Comment on whether the research is worthwhile or weak
•Weaknesses of the study
Teacher’s Commnets:
It looks as though your first paragraph is fairly content heavy – There are a couple of independent ideas in there that probably need to be divided up.
You may find it difficult to adequately address the question within the word limit if you try to discuss both biological and cognitive perspectives. To be honest, they would both each need their own paragraph to provide enough detail – I would possibly encourage you to stick to one.
If you would like to focus on false memories, I would recommend that you clearly link all of your arguments back to that – just make sure that when you are discussing malleability of memory that you are not deviating too far from actual ‘false memories’ – just keep in mind that it’s not the same as recall of an actual event with some slight inaccuracies.
What do you plan to include in your literature review for paragraph 2? The bulk of the essay should be introducing experimental evidence and then critically evaluating it – it seems like paragraphs 1 and 2 are going to be quite similar.
Also remember that it’s important to discuss some evidence surrounding the other side of the argument – an essay should mention both points of view and then come to a conclusion about which is the most compelling. This will link in fairly smoothly when you are discussing the weaknesses of the research you have presented.
Are you discussing these ideas within a particular scope i.e. childhood memories or legal testimony? It may be worthwhile to have an ‘overarching theme’ that you can link your ideas to. Not essential, although it may help with the flow of the essay.

Paper – Sociological Analysis of the Family
Summary:
With this paper, I want to see that the students not only have memorized the concepts and theories in order to take the quizzes, but they have understood the material presented in this course and they are able to apply it in analyzing a concrete and basic social group: the family. Therefore, you are expected to review the first chapter and select one of the main theoretical approaches (functionalist theory, the conflict theory or the symbolic-interactionist theory). Then, using your sociological imagination (see chapter 1), analyze your family through the theoretical perspective you selected and make sure that you apply correctly in your analysis at least five of the concepts learned in this course.
Suggestion of concepts you may use in your analysis:
· ethnocentrism/ cultural relativity
· culture/ subculture/ counterculture
· social status (ascribed, achieved, master)
· social role (role strain, role conflict)
· social group (primary, secondary)
· social class/ social mobility/ social inequality
· socialization/ resocialization/ agents of socialization
· deviance/ conformity /obedience
· race/ ethnicity
· accommodation/ acculturation/ assimilation
· stereotype/ discrimination
· gender identity/ gender role
· nuclear family/ extended family
· monogamy/ polygamy
· endogamy/ exogamy
Please, write an original paper of at least 1000 words, avoiding generalization of personal experiences. Think sociologically! Use only the textbook and the notes as bibliographical resources and make sure to mention them at the end of your assignment. The resources are not included in the minimum 1000 words. Make sure to give credit to your bibliographical sources and keep in mind that the quotations cannot represent more than 20% of your paper. Even though you give credit to the author, if the quotations exceed 20% of the paper, this is no longer original. As intellectual theft, plagiarism is graded with zero.
The student will be graded on critical thinking, writing, clarity, organization, and content. You will have points deducted if the paper is shorter than required. If you need assistance with your assignment, the Writing Center is available for free to assist you with your writing needs! The paper must have an introduction and conclusion. Grammar and spelling count!

In what ways is reading Mansfield Park valuable even if, in the end, any critique of slavery is ambiguous?
Mansfield Park sits at the center of what is probably the most significant critical debate about any Austen novel. Here is how the debate is framed by Robert Tindal in an article published just this past spring:
One of the most influential readings of Jane Austen’s 1811 novel Mansfield Park is that of Edward Said, which focuses on the seemingly minor detail that the Bertram family owns property in Antigua at a time when slaves are still being used in the West Indian island’s sugar plantations, and that various members of the family are seemingly complacent about the fact. Said’s analysis, which is also one of the most memorable literary interpretations in his 1994 work Culture and Imperialism, has been criticized by those who would defend Austen against accusations that she was relatively indifferent to the issue of slavery. However, the issue is ambiguous because the novel is simply not transparent in its attitude toward slavery – not in the outlook of the characters and certainly not in the novel’s position toward slavery as a social institution.
This essay prompt asks you to stake a claim in this debate.What is the place of slavery in the story Austen tells, and what does Mansfield Park tell us about the place of slavery in the story of women and the project of empire building? In what ways is reading Mansfield Park valuable even if, in the end, any critique of slavery is ambiguous?
As part of your essay, include reflections on t Olaudah Equiano, William Beckford, and Maria Nugent as well as Greenfield’s article. In what ways does Mansfield Park echo Beckford’s and Nugent’s accounts? In the face of what we know about slavery from such accounts as Equiano’s, how, in the end, do you feel about Austen’s representation of the world of Mansfield Park?
Please provide the thesis of the essay, the essay should contain 6 quotations in total, with two or three being from Greenfield, Beckford, Nugent and Equiano(in attachment). The rest of the quotations should come from the novel ,Mansfield Park.

Social Work client evaluation
Please refer to Understanding Generalist Practice by: Kirst-Ashman and Graftman Hull Jr.
The complexity of evaluation
For many of us the evaluation component is one we would rather walk away from, or for many of us, running is more like it!
My dislike for formal evaluation started in my work with HIV prevention. My question at that time: “In prevention, how can we measure something that does not happen?” How do we know we are making a difference? “If program funding follows success, but people are continuing to get infected, how can we claim success?” All good questions, but as always, there is more to the story. Although I was not a social worker during those years, my questions were valid.
Formal evaluation is lacking in every social work job I have had. In my BSW research class I learned to monitor client learning with a pre and post intervention questionnaire. Thankfully, I had a great research professor who helped me to design and evaluate my work. Since then, there has been no formal opportunities for evaluation. Ethically required, yes. In place in most organizations, no.
Why might organizations not have evaluation as a focus?
As you work towards becoming a social worker, what role do you think evaluation plays in the work you will do? Have you ever really thought about it before? Formal program evaluation kind of looks like math, and that alone can send some of us running. For others, evaluation is a great way to demonstrate need, progress and outcomes.
Considering micro, mezzo and macro practice, where do you think evaluation is most meaningful? Why?
Land Capability – Developing a Land Capability Scheme and Rating Table for the Blackville area
You are going to examine land capability and how to develop and define a land capability scheme and rating table to place land units of varying land quality into appropriate land capability classes for a particular land use. The scheme you devise should apply to the aerial photo you have already classified into land units, but should have wider applicability than just the aerial photograph. Please remember that the land unit classification is summarising the land quality of each unit, while land capability is about forming an opinion on the optimal land use for that particular land unit that leads to minimal land degradation and intervention required by management. This means that for each land unit you need to attribute it to a capability class ranging from Class 1 (best land) to Class 5 (worst land), with qualifiers which indicate the most limiting attribute that defined the overall capability of the land unit.
Please examine your aerial photograph, and compare your land unit classification against the one all the class will be using.
provide a legend with your land capability map that describes/defines the land capability classes, as well as a rating table that demonstrates to me the process you used to assign land capability classes to each land unit.
1. What was the conceptual framework YOU used to derive the land capability scheme?
2. What purpose was the land capability scheme designed for and what were the underlying objectives or reasons for the land capability scheme?
3. Justify the factors YOU selected to form your land capability rating table, and were used to assign land capability classes for each land unit, that is why were they important?
4. Describe YOUR land capability scheme – number of classes, types of land use, the class definitions, the type of information required to define classes. Do the criteria used to define classes adequately cover all the social, economic and biophysical factors that need to be considered? (refer to your rating table and legend)
5. If your scheme was to be used what is required in terms of information, people and resources to use this scheme?

Outcomes per individual
1. Classify the land into land units. Already assessed, when undertaking the aerial photograph interpretation.
2. Take the generic land unit classification aerial photo and devise a land capability scheme and rating table to place the land unit into capability classes. I do not expect this to be completed in the time allotted but to provide some answers to the above questions and to consider where information can be obtained from such as risk of salinity, soil types and erosion hazard eg flooding.
o Classify the same aerial photo into land capability classes, (clean copy provided) with a legend of the capability classes and definition.
o Provide the land capability scheme and rating table which is the basis for the defining the classes, and assigning land capability classes for each land unit.
o Provide answers to the above questions.
Describe ways in which you seek to step outside of your comfort zone and challenge the world views you hold.
Hello there-
This essay is aiming to show the applicant’s deep thinking on the issue and how he utilized his opinion and his voice to challenge an idea.
Original description of the essay is below:
A liberal arts education challenges you to think critically, reflect purposefully and broaden perceptions. Describe ways in which you seek to step outside of your comfort zone and challenge the world views you hold.
—–
Here is the story I want you to write about: since the applicant’s parents are both firefighters, he gained more knowledge in the field than common public. Seeing neighborhoods kids are not very aware of the knowledge in preventing careless fires, he stepped out his comfort zone to set up a club in school, aiming to hold event and lectures in the community to educate people with less knowledge on this topic. The comfort zone is he is not super outgoing and he is even a bit shy. The driven force is that he can’t stand people get hurt because of not knowing the knowledge. The idea he is challenging is that fire outbreaks are distant from regular people’s lives so it is okay to not be really familiar with all the prevention knowledge even though it is highly recommend by the society (few people care).
—–
I would like you to write a story on how all these happened and focus on his struggle on stepping out of the comfort zone, and how his idea was challenged by the public and how he finally overcame it and made everything happen, people started to look at him in the good way after all his efforts.

Please write the essay in first person perspective, use logical linkage as needed.

Analyze a SOAP note case study that describes abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.
Assesment 1: Assessing the Abdomen
A woman went to the emergency room for severe abdominal cramping. She was diagnosed with diverticulitis; however, as a precaution, the doctor ordered a CAT scan. The CAT scan revealed a growth on the pancreas, which turned out to be pancreatic cancer—the real cause of the cramping.
Because of a high potential for misdiagnosis, determining the precise cause of abdominal pain can be time-consuming and challenging. By analyzing case studies of abnormal abdominal findings, nurses can prepare themselves to better diagnose conditions in the abdomen.
In this assignment, you will analyze a SOAP note case study that describes abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting. You will consider what history should be collected from the patients, as well as which physical exams and diagnostic tests should be conducted. You will also formulate a differential diagnosis with several possible conditions.
Abdominal Assessment
SUBJECTIVE:
CC: “My stomach hurts, I have diarrhea and nothing seems to help.”
HPI: JR, 47 yo WM, complains of having generalized abdominal pain that started 3 days ago. He has not taken any medications because he did not know what to take. He states the pain is a 5/10 today but has been as much as 9/10 when it first started. He has been able to eat, with some nausea afterwards.
PMH: HTN, Diabetes, hx of GI bleed 4 years ago
Medications: Lisinopril 10mg, Amlodipine 5 mg, Metformin 1000mg, Lantus 10 units qhs

Social: Denies tobacco use; occasional etoh, married, 3 children (1 girl, 2 boys)
OBJECTIVE:
VS: Temp 99.8; BP 160/86; RR 16; P 92; HT 5’10”; WT 248lbs
Heart: RRR, no murmurs
Lungs: CTA, chest wall symmetrical
Skin: Intact without lesions, no urticaria
Abd: soft, hyperctive bowel sounds, pos pain in the LLQ
Diagnostics: None
ASSESSMENT:
Left lower quadrant pain
Gastroenteritis
PLAN: This section is not required for the assignments in this course (NURS 6512) but will be required for future courses.
To prepare:
With regard to the SOAP note case study provided:
Review this week’s Learning Resources, and consider the insights they provide about the case study.
Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study.
Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more information about the patient’s condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis?
Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient.
To complete:
Analyze the subjective portion of the note. List additional information that should be included in the documentation.
Analyze the objective portion of the note. List additional information that should be included in the documentation.
Is the assessment supported by the subjective and objective information? Why or Why not?
What diagnostic tests would be appropriate for this case and how would the results be used to make a diagnosis?
Would you reject/accept the current diagnosis? Why or why not? Identify three possible conditions that may be considered as a differential diagnosis for this patient. Explain your reasoning using at least 3 different references from current evidence based literature.
IOM Worksheet
The IOM report is an influential set of recommendations that is being used to shape nursing practice in the US now and in the future. The committee established four key messages about nursing:
1. Nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and training.
2. Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression.
3. Nurses should be full partners¬–with physicians and other health professionals–in redesigning health care in the United States.
4. Effective workforce planning and policy making require better data collection and an improved information infrastructure.
Each of these recommendations is affected by multiple factors at the organizational, local, state, and national levels. In turn, each message affects multiple systems. As we’ve learned, different aspects of healthcare interrelate with one another, and changing one can have an unexpected effect on “downstream” outcomes.
For this worksheet, identify which of the four key messages you want to address, and answer the following questions:
1. What key message did you choose? Why do you think the IOM chose to emphasize this particular message/what is its purported significance?
br2. What are the factors that affect that message, for good or bad?
On an organizational level?
Local?
State?
National?
3. Have you seen changes on this key message being pursued? If so, what are they and where?
4. What are the expected outcomes of those efforts? Do you think these will be accomplished? Why or why not?
5. What is one recommendation you would make to your organization to promote the key message you chose, and why?
What key message did you choose? Why do you think the IOM chose to emphasize this particular message/what is its purported significance?

For those students selecting the job process, there are many stages to consider, one of which is the interview. As a criminal justice major, you may pursue jobs in the law enforcement arena. During the interview process and training, law enforcement agencies may ask substantive questions related to ethics or officer trust. Although there are many professions that compel ethical behavior, the cornerstone of law enforcement relies on officer trust.

Requirements:
All posts should include word count.
Posts discussing written texts should include quotes with APA in-text citation and reference.
Any topic in the field of Financial Management, corporate finance or Accounting that is feasible and could generate new knowledge.
It is a requirement for assisting me with the identification of the research topic, framing research questions, and then conducting the whole research project and writing the dissertation paper on my behalf as per the academic standards and guidelines as well as the submission timetable of the university. My university is one of the russell-group, research-intensive unis in the UK and has rigorous academic standards in marking post-grad papers and assessing the academic rigour and originality of a research. The detailed guidelines of the research project of my uni is attached. My Dissertation Prep Class will start by mid of October where will be matched to a dissertation advisor who will supervise our research project. By the end of the class we should submit a research proposal. Samples of the RP have been supplied by the Uni and are attached hereby. I can submit tens of assignments I have written myself on the taught modules of this master’s programme as a guiding sample of my writing style. The last email sent to me by my student support manager summarising the research process and timeline reads as follows: “…… As requested, I have registered you to the start date of the dissertation on 25 October 2018. The registration should appear on your Student Portal in the next 2 business days. Starting at this time means your dissertation will be due on 31 July 2019. Please keep in mind that the dissertation lasts 40 weeks from the point at which you start. Once underway, you can reschedule up to day 14 of the Research Methods Training. Following this you are not able to reschedule and must complete the whole 40 week process.
Here is some other important information:
• During the first six weeks of LAUR 905, students go through the Dissertation Preparation Class to find a Dissertation Advisor (DA). The General Dissertation Instructor will post a list of potential advisors; students then liaise with one or two potential advisors to find a good match.
Once students have found a DA, then a new one-to-one classroom is opened for the student and their DA. Within this classroom students develop their proposal and gain proposal approval from their DA. It is recommended that students gain proposal approval by week eight.
After proposal approval, students then move on to research and writing. During this phase students work quite independently, so it is important to manage your time and keep in regular communication with your DA.
Fragmentation and Conversion of Agricultural Land: Analysis of Values to Inform Policy
Masters Dissertation; This qualitative research looks at the root of the social tensions surrounding the loss of agricultural land and how these tensions affect policy. It is a mix of sociology, political theory and a little bit of ecology. ( It is in line with Elenor Ostrom’s work)
In 2008, the Government of Alberta Canada introduced the Land Use Framework (LUF). The LUF is a ‘cumulative effects management’ approach (CEM). It has been ten years since the introduction of the LUF and AB is still loosing prime Ag land at an alarming rate. There have been several research projects measuring the spatial context and implications, but few have attempted to asses and synthesise the non-spatial aspects of urban encroachment. Based on a qualitative comparative case study (3 regions within Alberta) approach, this research explores the informal institutions (social norms & values) and formal institutional path dependency. How do these institutions interact to inform values that may ultimately influence land management decisions? And considering the influences of informal norms, can horizontal/polycentric governance (Foundation of the LUF) be effective as a CEM approach by delivering the desired outcomes prescribed in the LUF? Through assessment of local land-use planning frameworks and interviews with local decision-makers, landowners and developers, several policy gaps are identified at both the provincial and the local municipality level. The LUF and subsequent municipal level land-use policies do not incorporate and or anticipate the influence of informal institutions.
Alberta provides an interesting location to examine public perceptions about the loss of agricultural land for some reasons. Due to the province’s broad historical agricultural base and its current population and urban growth, local conflicts regarding agricultural land conversion to urban development are becoming more common. While Alberta has made strides in improving land-use policies and protective management efforts, the debate is ongoing regarding whether or not a provincial policy is indeed necessary for this protection.
Please use Elenor Ostrom’s ‘Understanding Institutional Diversity’ and her other works regarding informal institutions and common pool governance and cumulative effects management. Also, use Douglas North’s Theory of Institutions and Patha Dependency and Arild Vatn’s book ‘Institutions and the Environment. Please use any references you feel is relevant to this project. I will include an outline of this research and will add a few Thesis examples that I would like you to follow for formatting and content. I will also upload references, and Gov. reports once we get going so I can limit your need for searching relevant material. Please note that I am not rigid and open to any suggestions. A page number is also flexible. Please work for quality and not the number of pages. I selected 100 due to uncertainty so more or less is fine.

This is what my professor wants:
Don’t forget to guide yourselves with the case questions included in the book, as the answers do need to form part of the body of your papers.
I love this attached guide from ‘Proposify.com’ on how to write an executive summary, basing yourselves on the book’s case question as guidance. If you follow this you’ll be golden.
The need, solution, and call to action should most likely contain some of these answers as well as the research points you find that relate to the company in question. The evidence should have the research that backs all this up and current events that relate, and your opinions that bring all of it together. Don’t forget to cite your sources. And please make sure to bring content. The paper can be as long as it needs to be to contain the right information. Also remember format is important. Graphical representation of company performance is always a plus.

In either designing the job or in hiring to fill the job, does your organization consider any of the individual factors that might influence success? Explain
Herzberg pointed out that not every job or person is a fit for enrichment. Businesses and their strategies differ and the kinds of skills, procedures, and behavior required on the factory floor is quite different from those required for a leading-edge design shop. In addition, people with the same abilities and personalities may be at different levels in terms of satisfying their needs (e.g., Maslow’s hierarchy). It should be no surprise to you that both job and organizational design are situational and interdependent with many other concepts involved in the “management of human energy.”
1. In either designing the job or in hiring to fill the job, does your organization consider any of the individual factors that might influence success? Explain your answer and consider the following factors:
– Cultural differences in the people
– Personality factors like MBTI type, conscientiousness, the focus of control, and hardiness
– Where a person is in satisfying their higher- and lower-level needs.
2. In your organization, are there any jobs that appear to have been successfully designed (either initially or as they have “evolved”) using ideas like those described in the textbook? Anchor your comments in the achievement of the three critical states, and in the achievement of “engagement”.
3. How would you describe the organization you work for on each of the basic design dimensions? What changes in these dimensions have you seen in your organization due to pressures for improved cost/effectiveness or to meet other changes in the environment/competition?

Involvement and Leadership in an organization
Overview:
This week addresses the topic of “empowerment” and its role in successfully leading change. We focus on the “involvement – empowerment – engagement – resistance” continuum. Leading change is about leading people, and while we might sometimes feel like there’s no other choice but to pull people along to do what we think is “best”, what do we have when we get to where we’re going?
Black says that organizational transformation is really about people transformation thus, it is important to re-engage with this concept and attempt to understand what it implies since it is so critical to successful change implementation.
Week 06 Discussion
Please answer each of the following questions. Use APA format and remember to list your references. These should be answered with 150-200 words each
What is the difference between delegation and empowerment? What would be your choice as to which to emphasize during a change initiative and why?
How is Black’s notion of “Getting Tired” connected to empowerment
Consider youngsters’ developmental abilities (e.g., physical, cognitive, social, linguistic) for the age they are targeting. Design a game or toy (e.g., card game, board game, physical activity game) that is age-appropriate and takes into account the children’s developmental abilities.
Both Piaget and Vygotsky believed that play gives children valuable practice in adult-like behaviors. Furthermore, Vygotsky argued that various forms of play (especially pretend play) enables children to develop increasingly sophisticated ways of thinking about relationships between objects and their meanings. You might want to discuss young children’s play characteristics and behaviors, and elaborate on it to discuss older children’s play.
Neysmith-Roy (1994) designed the Make-a-Toy project to enable students to develop a higher level of understanding of children’s psychological and physical needs. She explains that this activity is a good alternative to experience-based activities in case students don’t have opportunities to interact directly with children.
In this activity you are to either plan or actually create a toy or game together in a group incorporating what you know about these theories of development. You will bring in your plan or the actual toy or game in the next class so that we can see it.
Instructions:
Construct an age-appropriate toy or game for children or adolescents.(Some supplies will be provided in class the previous week). Pick a close age range (ex. 2yo-6yo)
Consider youngsters’ developmental abilities (e.g., physical, cognitive, social, linguistic) for the age they are targeting. Design a game or toy (e.g., card game, board game, physical activity game) that is age-appropriate and takes into account the children’s developmental abilities.
Another variation is to have students actually teach a child a new game using Vygotsky’s ideas related to scaffolding and zone of proximal development.
Be prepared to justify:
The targeted age group
The toy’s positive and negative characteristics (including safety issues)
Describe how the toy contributes to children’s psychological and physical development
Convince the reader that Vygotsky would agree that your particular toy would contribute to children’s ability to master increasingly complex cognitive processing skills necessary for understanding cause-effect relationships, taking others’ perspectives (e.g., hypothesizing about what the opponent’s next move will be), practicing skills needed in later life, refining cooperation and conflict-resolution skills
The game itself does not have to be made, only come up with written up plan for one.
An example of similar games is included (Educational _games.pdf) as are the pages from the textbook which deal with the two educational theories involved.
Students are to keep a health behaviour change diary using the template on Moodle. Develop and document short-term and long-term goals to achieve the change in yourbehaviour;
Students are to keep a health behaviour change diary using the template on
Moodle (‘Assessment 2’ folder).
In this diary (1000 words), students are to:
• Document ONE key health behaviour you wish to change (i.e.
increasing levels of exercise, consume a healthier diet, increasing
water intake, quitting smoking). With this, include a discussion on
why this changein health behaviour is needed using the literature for
support (references);
• Develop and document short-term and long-term goals to achieve the
change in yourbehaviour;
• Document the positives versus the negatives of changing your
behaviour (pros versus cons) – document this in table form;
• Describe the impact of the behaviour change onyour health;
• Describe the impact of the behaviour change on yourlifestyle;
• Measure and record progress to achieving the change on aweekly
basis (in the form of weekly diary entries, not included in the 1000
word count. Students must have a minimum of seven (7) entries
and include the dates of the entries.
At the end of the change period, complete a reflective piece (1500 words) on
the change journey:
• identify barriers to change you experienced;
• identify facilitators to change you experienced;
• Reflect on ways you can use your own change experienceswhen
working with a person experiencing a substance-usedisorder.
All of the sections in the diary and the reflection are to be supported with
contemporary, scholarly literature (references).
As this is a reflective piece, you are encouraged to write in the first person.
*Note, it is compulsory that all students are to email the Subject Coordinator
by week 3 of session (by the 12th August) providing the first diary entry for
feedback. No marks will be awarded for this; it is a formative part of the
assessment.
For this discussion, you will be defining research in nursing and evidence-based practice in nursing. Along with your definitions, provide one example of each.

Describe the most significant challenge you have faced and the steps you have taken to overcome this challenge. How has this challenge affected your academic achievement?
Hello there-
This essay is aiming to show one of the applicant’s most significant challenge, and how he conquered it step by step.
Original detailed description is provided below:
5) Describe the most significant challenge you have faced and the steps you have taken to overcome this challenge. How has this challenge affected your academic achievement?
Things to consider: A challenge could be personal, or something you have faced in your community or school. Why was the challenge significant to you? This is a good opportunity to talk about any obstacles you’ve faced and what you’ve learned from the experience. Did you have support from someone else or did you handle it alone?
If you’re currently working your way through a challenge, what are you doing now, and does that affect different aspects of your life? For example, ask yourself, “How has my life changed at home, at my school, with my friends, or with my family?”
—–
Here is the story I want you to write about:
The applicant founded a club in high school for he wanted to spread the knowledge of preventing careless fires in the community. The challenge here is that because of the doubt from peers and the many complicated issues he had to solve (gathering fund, finding coworkers, designing events, etc. you can make up more troubles he had to face at that time, make sure they are appropriate and shows it was very difficult to found a club). All these difficulties made him to doubt himself and got nervous about this thing, so the real challenge here is to push himself and be confident. So one day when he is really tired of all the issues in the club and start to think of quitting the whole thing, he put away all the paperwork and start to ask himself why he wanted to found this club, and after reminding himself his goal and calm down, realized that the real “enemy” he is facing here is his inner doubt of himself and his lack of confidence. So he fixed everything and eventually the club went well and held many meaningful events that serves for his purpose.
—–
I would like you to write about his thoughts and all the difficulties he faced, but the focus should be on how he figured out everything, like he calm down and thought about everything, and how he fixed it (you can use your imagination for this part, like what he did to fixed this problem other than just being calm, maybe ignoring hostile peers and become determined etc. ).
Also, please show that he learned a lot more than just how to found a club, like he gained strong will and patience, as well as ignoring the negative/hostile comments made by people that are just jealous etc.
—–
Please write the essay in first person’s perspective.
Word limit: ~300.
Please add logical linkages in between the paragraphs/sections to ensure the whole essay’s logical flow.
You may start from the end of the story and not to write this essay in chronological order, like starting from an successful event the club held and talk about how difficult it was at first to found it and how much he struggled about this. This is up to your preference, all I want is the essay has a good flow and fits the description perfectly.
—–

For years she had been what is called “stage-struck” and had paraded through the streets with traveling men guests at her father’s hotel, wearing loud clothes and urging them to tell her of life in the cities out of which they had come. Once she startled the town by putting on men’s clothes and riding a bicycle down Main Street. In her own mind the tall dark girl had been in those days much confused. A great restlessness was in her and it expressed itself in two ways. First there was an uneasy desire for change, for some big definite movement to her life. It was this feeling that had turned her mind to the stage. She dreamed of joining some company and wandering over the world, seeing always new faces and giving something out of herself to all people. Sometimes at night she was quite beside herself with the thought, but when she tried to talk of the matter to the members of the theatrical companies that came to Winesburg and stopped at her father’s hotel, she got nowhere. They did not seem to know what she meant, or if she did get something of her passion expressed, they only laughed. “It’s not like that,” they said. “It’s as dull and uninteresting as this here. Nothing comes of it.”
With the traveling men when she walked about with them, and later with Tom Willard, it was quite different. Always they seemed to understand and sympathize with her. On the side streets of the village, in the darkness under the trees, they took hold of her hand and she thought that something unexpressed in herself came forth and became a part of an unexpressed something in them.

Want to use Critical Race Theory to explain that the inconsistency in legislation for prostitution as opposed to pornography is due to the racial composition/class of the participants (race based morality).
The citations must be in BlueBook format with footnotes. Attached is a sample dissertation showing format.
Please use law review articles and case law for citations in addition to the other sources you choose.
You previously assisted me on this matter. I now need you to add:
1.) A table of contents with all proposed chapters for the dissertation (detailed chapter outline)
2.) Results Chapter that interprets statistical data regarding arrest, convictions, and demographics/ racial compositions of commercial sex workers. In leu of interviews with sex workers, it should say I used questionnaires.
I will later contract you for the other chapters. I understand that five pages will not be enough for this chapter but please include as much relevant information as possible and I will place another order next month for you to expand this results chapter.
Would like my dissertation to examine how:
Prostitution is a form of illegal behavior. Pornography is the same form of behavior. They both should either: be illegal because there is no difference or there should be full governmental regulation on both. Want to use Critical Race Theory to explain that the inconsistency in legislation is due to the racial composition/class of the participants (race based morality). Prostitution is comprised mainly of ethnic minorities, while most pornography is made by non-minorities. There is no legal rationale (policy basis) for distinguishing the two.
Data should look at arrests, convictions, and demographics/racial composition.
And, must use BlueBook citations.
Thank you in advance 🙂

Create a playlist to promote your own personal health – either physical or mental health.
To do this, you will carefully choose music that suits the purpose of the playlist and draw on concepts and theory covered in lectures to strategically organize the order of songs. Actively listen to the music you choose for your playlist to test that it meets your intended purpose. Although you should choose either physical or mental health, you are welcome to draw on any literature from the different weeks of the semester that is relevant to explain the health benefits for you.
Introduction (approx. 500 words):
In the introduction, describe your selected purpose for the playlist and summarise key theories about how music could be used to promote the desired outcome. Clearly describe the process you used to create the playlist, stating how you went about selecting the songs and the order.
Assignment body (approx. 1200 words): In the body of the assignment, list the order of the 10 pieces of music included in the playlist. Discuss your experience of each track and use the literature to explain how it either contributed to your identified health purpose, or how and why it was unsuccessful. Include descriptions of the musical aspects (the beat, harmonies etc) and non-musical aspects (associations etc) of the track, depending on which was more relevant for each particular one. You must use the literature throughout the assignment to justify your claims about the benefits of music for this purpose. Dedicate approximately 120 words per song and include the song title and reference details as the subheading for each song (these titles are not included in the word count).
Conclusion (approx. 300 words): In the conclusion, reflect on any potential mental or physical health benefits that may result for others through the construction of a playlist similar to yours, including any ideas you have about the use of music to promote health in the community.
Headings:
Use the songs as Headings for the body of the assignment. Please include reference to each song as the subheadings including Track Title, Performing Artist and year of publication, with information about the Composer and Record Company if information is relevant.
Notes:
We recommend APA6 referencing style, however, your references can be in any style as long as they are consistent.

This is a group assignment (Australian Taxation law).
Candidates must apply the IRAC principle when addressing the relevant issues (i.e. I= Identify the key issues, R= Cite the relevant legislative provisions and case law (rules) where appropriate, A = apply the relevant rules to the facts presenting arguments for and against and C = form a conclusion based on your stronger argument).
Upon reading the case study please identify the taxation issues for only Strategic Business Transactions & Key Client Matters (No. 4 to 6 only). This is my part.
For this 2 problems identify all relevant tax issues, critically analyses and applies the taxation treatment to the issues, i.e., you will need to argue and support your view and consider differing views (if applicable), and finally, indicate your recommended action based on your better view, i.e., your conclusion (IRAC principle).
There are documented positive correlations
between effective parental engagement
and high student achievement. Successful
leaders make parents partners and create a
structure for parents and educators to work
together. Read the article, “Unlocking
Families Potential: A Conversation with
Karen L. Mapp” by Thiers (2017). Reflect
on ways your school seeks to foster “role
construction” and address barriers between
teachers and families. What are some
suggestions you could make for increasing
the level or quality of parental engagement
in your school? How might this article
inform your work on your IIP?
Excel Project #2 requires that you prepare a 10-column work sheet for the year, a Multiple-step Income Statement, Statement of Retained Earnings, and a Balance Sheet. The specifics for this Project can be found on the Project File attached to this assignment.
The unadjusted trial balance for Dakota Enterprises as of December 31, 2016 can be found on the Excel Project 2 file attached below. Additional Information necessary to complete the work sheet is also listed on that work sheet.
REQUIRED:
Complete the 10-column worksheet using Excel. The 10 columns include the following:
Unadjusted Trial Balance – Debit and Credit
Adjustments – Debit and Credit
Adjusted Trial Balance – Debit and Credit
Income Statement – Debit and Credit
Balance Sheet – Debit and Credit
When preparing your spread sheets, be sure that you consider the following:
Use a font style that is professional and consistent.
Size fonts properly.
Format the amounts using the accounting format.
Be sure that the amounts line up properly.
Be sure to use the proper underlining.
Align all items correctly.
Be sure to include proper indentation.
For any items that involve a mathematical computation, you are required to enter a formula. For example, on the Adjusted Trial Balance columns, enter the formula to compute the “Adjusted” balance; on the Income Statement, be sure to use formulas for all totals and subtotals.
When preparing the financial statements, do not simply enter the amounts from the completed work sheet — use a formula that refers each amount to the related cell on the worksheet. By doing this, any change you make on the worksheet will automatically up the financial statements.
This above list is an example of the items that you are to consider. Remember that you are required to present these financial statements to management and ultimately to the board of directors – and the method of presentation is important.
Please find the attached Excel file where all the work can be done on the same file and contains additional information in the introduction tab about the project. Let me know if you have any questions.

Application: Sexual Behavior
Gender and sexuality are intertwined in many cultures. (Gardiner & Kosmitzki, 2011) Socialization agents teach the appropriate behaviors for gender and the acceptable sexual attitudes and behaviors within a culture. Cultural differences exist around the world and across countries. For example, cultural differences may exist through the number of partners allowed in a marriage, expectations for males and females, and knowledge and application of safe sex practices. Differences may also arise in what is permitted and acceptable, such as premarital sex, same-sex relationships, and extramarital relationships. The consequences for an individual deviating from these cultural expectations also vary from culture to culture.
For this Assignment, choose one sexual attitude (e.g., abstinence, monogamy, etc.) and one sexual behavior (e.g., chastity, infidelity, etc.).
The Assignment (4 pages)
Use your Final Project culture of interest ( TURKISH CULTURE )and select another culture of interest to you.
Compare the similarities and differences of sexual attitudes and behaviors in each culture.
Describe the cultural factors that influence sexual attitudes and behaviors.
Explain how sexual attitudes and behaviors are perceived and displayed within each culture.
Be specific and provide examples.

Overcoming educational barrier-
This essay is aiming to show the struggle of the applicant in an educational barrier and how he fought to overcome it.
Original detailed description is below:
Describe how you have taken advantage of a significant educational opportunity or worked to overcome an educational barrier you have faced.
Things to consider: An educational opportunity can be anything that has added value to your educational experience and better prepared you for college. For example, participation in an honors or academic enrichment program, or enrollment in an academy that’s geared toward an occupation or a major, or taking advanced courses that interest you — just to name a few.
If you choose to write about educational barriers you’ve faced, how did you overcome or strived to overcome them? What personal characteristics or skills did you call on to overcome this challenge? How did overcoming this barrier help shape who are you today?
—–
Please only consider the option of overcoming an educational barrier.
Here is the story I want you to write about:
The applicant has been the top student in school and his specialty is math. He is very proud of his math talent and started to grow arrogant (too proud of himself). He once gained a chance to participate in math competition which was said to be really difficult, his arrogant blinded him from preparing for the competition and costed him the chance to win the prize. (Like, he made many careless mistakes and got stuck at difficult questions, maybe add his thoughts at that time, anxious, nervous, started to realized not preparing was a bad idea, etc.). After the competition he learned there are a lot of great people at his age with outstanding math knowledge and started to be patient and gained strong will in overcoming the barrier that keeps him as the top math student in class but this time he is not just talented but also hardworking. So the educational barrier in this case is not about not learning stuff well but being too talented that ignored the importance of hardworking, patience etc. and he also gained strong will from this experience.
—–
The “barrier part” of the story may be very different from the traditional ones, so please think carefully in how to demonstrate it, so that we are showing this process instead of telling this process.
Please make the paper fluent and consistent, add logical linkages in between to ensure the logic flow of the essay.

14 Hyperlinks spatial exploration
This assignment will allow you to explore the locations and siting of the objects and monuments we have studied so far. By calling up three-dimensional views through mapping programs (such as Google Street View and Google Maps or Earth on your phone or computer), you will become familiar with the larger setting and geographical, topographical, and spatial details of these places.
1) Please create a document with at least one hyperlink (you can provide more if you find it useful) to two monuments each from Chapters 1-7. This will produce a total of 14 hyperlinks.
2) Go into Google Earth or Google Maps, search for these locations, use Street View to “place yourself” in the locations.
3) When you visit each location, find at least one view that interests you (one is the minimum requirement, but if others appeal to you, by all means, include them too!).
4) EXPLAIN why you have selected your VIEW(s) in one or two pithy sentences. Your explanation should convey why the view(s) you have selected enhances your understanding of the monument/place/site/object itself. In other words, how does seeing the Street View image of this place further your UNDERSTANDING of it, beyond what we discussed in class?

A critical analysis of two counselling theories
Select two counselling approaches. Compare and contrast these approaches in terms of both their theoretical assumptions as well as the techniques used in therapy. Provide an evaluation of empirical evidence that may support one over the other.
According to Benjamin, what is the power of film and how might it mobilize the masses in acts of resistance? How does Adorno respond to Benjamin’s argument?
1) According to Benjamin, what is the power of film and how might it mobilize the masses in acts of resistance? How does Adorno respond to Benjamin’s argument? How might these understandings of the significance of film correlate with the Feminist critique of film?
2) Both Benjamin and Adorno employ the dialectical method of Marx (Hegel) for their projects, but in their correspondence, Adorno accuses Benjamin of falling prey to a kind of naïve romanticism with his belief in the transformative potential of mechanical reproduction as a forwarding agent in the political project of the proletariat. Adorno responds to the draft of “Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction” with the injunction for “more dialectics” (529). What precisely is in tension between them and how might their approaches help us to navigate today’s culture and media manipulations?
3) In the age of mechanical reproduction, art was separated from tradition giving artists a new sense of freedom. But with that freedom, Adorno explains in “Art, Society, and Aesthetics,” “what looked at first like expansion of art turned out to be its contraction” (1). Rather then embrace this new found freedom, artists everywhere searched to put themselves back in the box (1). Taking into consideration Spivak’s essay, “Supplementing Marxism,” what do you think would be a Marxian analysis, in regards to why this contradiction occurred?
4) In “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction,” Benjamin discusses what occurs to the authenticity of the art object as “the essence of all that is transmissible from its beginning.” When an art object is reproduced by technological means, he claims that “the historical testimony is affected,” which thereby affects the authority of the object itself (521). Do you think that, in today’s technology-entrenched society, we are experiencing this lack of authenticity? Or do you think it is, instead, possible for authenticity to still occur? How does the utilization of technology for reproduction change our understanding of authenticity? Please provide some examples of artists that you think are or are not doing this effectively.
5) In the two excerpts we read, Edward Said identifies not only a European cultural tradition of universalism and ‘superiority’ but also accuses academia of the same insular notions. Spivak shares these concerns. Said introduces a methodology of discourse as a remedial measure to the rigidity of history and philosophical difference. In the current firmly globalized (yet simultaneously nationalistic and divided) geopolitical experience, what might discourse offer that is similar/different/ other than dialectic? And is ‘giving voice’ enough considering the shadow of traditional power structures?
Explore the ways in which the narrators of both ‘Porphyria’s Lover’ and ‘Salome’ are presented as being mad?
Poems-“Porphyrias Lover”(Robert Browning)… “Salome” (Carol Ann Duffy)

(TIP: think about the causes of madness and the effects their mad actions have)
structure:
-Introduction
-4 main body paragraphs, two for each poem. Each main body paragraph should have a topic sentence,3-4 quotes in which are analyzed using(point, evidence, explanation, zoom in on a powerful word in the quote) then a Closing sentence (wrap up the paragraph to effectively transition to the next paragraph)
– conclusion etc.

*****It is extremely important to look at the PDF file named “ENGL227 Comparative essay guidelines (MUST READ)” attached in the additional materials section. *****
This PDF file basically contains ALL required criteria required for this comparative essay. Please make sure that you strictly follow these guidelines when writing this paper. The essay should be 100% original and not plagiarized from anyone else’s work. NEVER paraphrase any already existing essay and just change the wordings.
An international arts organisation is seeking proposals for live music projects that will empower local communities.
Write a proposal outlining your project for a group that includes you, to do a public performance of a pop song of your choosing that will draw public attention to an important social or political issue in your community. In your proposal, explain why the song you have chosen will be able to draw attention to the issue and how you think a performance of it could empower and inspire change in the community.
To answer this question, you will need to:
• Explain what the issue is and why it is important. Identify and present an issue that is impacting people in your community that you think deserves immediate attention. For example, there may be an environmental issue in your hometown that has been ongoing for a number of years, or an injustice against a group of marginalized people in your capital city that you want to draw attention to, etc. Ensure you have sufficient evidence to argue for the importance and urgency of the issue.
• Explain what song you have chosen and why it will draw attention to the issue. Undertake additional wider reading to consider the background behind the song you have chosen. This could include things like: why the song was written, what the songwriter’s political stance was on relevant issues, the cultural background of the songwriter, why and when the song was popular, etc. Use this information to explain why it’s the right song to highlight the issue chosen.
• Describe how the performance will look and sound and explain your choices. Consider how your research above will inform the performance by your group. You should consider things like when and where the performance will take place (including the time of day, date, time of year, venue or location), as well as how the group will present themselves, what the song will sound like (use appropriate terms to describe to vocal characteristics), how the song will be interpreted by the group (if appropriate – for instance you may have a creative interpretation of a particular lyric), and what the intended impact of these things will be on the audience.
• You must choose a song that you have not studied in this subject. This includes songs studied in lectures, tutorials and in your assignments. Hence, DO NOT pick songs by Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, The Beatles, Mariah Carey, Sam Smith, Lady Gaga or Madonna.
An effective proposal should be structured using an introduction, body and conclusion. It can include headings to organize the sections, as well as pictures if necessary.
Make sure you do wider reading using a variety of sources (such as videos, news articles, academic journals, web pages etc.) to support your proposal.
You must acknowledge when you have used someone else’s idea by referencing appropriately.
For the Final Project, you will select a public organization (federal, state, or local) with which you are familiar.
This may be an organization for which you currently work or have worked, know about from others, or have learned about through academic resources and/or the media, as long as it is not a non-profit organization or a private for-profit organization. With this organization in mind, you will explore the various topics of the course. As you progress through the readings and assignments in the course, think about how these topics relate to finance and budgeting within the organization you selected.
Submit your Final Project, which should contain the following sections (the sections can be reordered for appropriate flow):
The organization selected is the United States Department of Veterans Affairs
1. Mission and goals of the organization
2. Ethical considerations related to finance and budgeting within the organization
3. Technological considerations for improving the efficiency or effectiveness of finance and budgeting within the organization
4. Applicable laws, regulations, and policies impacting the organization’s financial and budgetary operations
5. Internal factors impacting successful strategic financial planning
6. Evaluation of the organization’s annual financial report
7. Evaluation of the organization’s revenue sources
8. Evaluation of the organization’s expenditures
9. Assessment of the organization’s overall financial condition
Your Final Project must demonstrate both breadth and depth of knowledge and critical thinking appropriate to graduate-level scholarship. It must follow the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association guidelines and be free of typographical, spelling, and grammatical errors. Also, you must use at least six scholarly sources from the library that were published within the past five years to support the paper.
The project should be 14–15 pages in length (double-spaced), not including the title page, the abstract, and references.

Ecocentrism: The Old man and the Sea. What is the significance of this identification of the marlin?
Topic: In The Old Man and the Sea, Santiago repeatedly identifies the marlin as a “brother.” What is the significance of this identification of the marlin? How does it connect to the way in which Santiago’s and the marlin’s roles at some points seem to become blurred? Most importantly, how does it connect to the larger themes of the novel?
***The important idea in this topic is ecocentrism (a belief that ecosystems and their interests should be valued intrinsically and placed before human interest). Our class focuses on how nature depicted in the work. I also uploaded a file about the ecocentrism (Wilderness by Leopold) for your reference. Also note that I’m a non-native speaker so please write that is easy to understand it.
Book link: https://gutenberg.ca/ebooks/hemingwaye-oldmanandthesea/hemingwaye-oldmanandthesea-00-h.html
Please read carefully for the additional instructions.
Additional Stipulations:
· Use the present tense when you are analyzing a literary text.
· Begin your essay with a title that clearly indicates the essay’s subject matter, including the title of the book you will be discussing (e.g. Wilderness and Hunting in Leopold’s Sand County Almanac).
· This essay, like any academic essay, should contain a strong one-sentence thesis statement at or very near the end of the opening paragraph. Each supporting paragraph should begin with a topic sentence that makes a claim about the text and then proceed to give evidence for that claim and to discuss that evidence.
· The thesis statement and topic sentences must make claims about the text (e.g. “In Leopold’s essay, the wilderness is a stage on which men use traditional skills to prove themselves,” NOT just “The wilderness is a stage on which men use traditional skills to prove themselves”).
· Your evidence should include a good balance of direct quotation from the text and paraphrase. Remember to integrate direct quotations in the way you were taught in class (and in MLA style) and to include a works cited list.
· Each body paragraph must contain multiple pieces of evidence. For the essay to achieve a passing grade, at least one of those pieces of evidence in each body paragraph must be quoted directly. Please do not rely on previously chosen online lists of quotations from famous works. Students who do this miss the most important pieces of evidence, fail to make original arguments, and generally fail to demonstrate deep enough knowledge of the text that they are discussing
· Avoid plot summary altogether, even in your introduction. Focus on argument and analysis.
· No reading of secondary material is required or expected. This is not a research paper.
· Do not rely on ready-made online analyses of the book for your ideas. The best essays result from making your
own observations and developing your own opinions.
· If you do use secondary sources, including any of the many freely available sources on the internet, please cite
your sources fully in both in-text citations and the works cited list. Failure to do so is plagiarism, even if you are
only drawing on the ideas, not the actual words, of the sources you have consulted. See the MLA Style
Guidelines handout for detailed information on how to give proper credit to your sources.
· If you really want to find good quality secondary sources on literary texts, remember that the best place to
search in the MLA International Bibliography (available under Databases on the library website).
· Your essay should be formatted in MLA style (this includes both the layout of the paper as a whole as well as the
format of the in-text citations and works cited list). Good online resources for MLA style may be found by
searching for “OWL Purdue MLA format” on the internet.
JC PENNY
Your task for this project is to develop a complete strategic Internet (DIGITAL) Marketing plan – marketing, advertising, media, and financial plans for a product or service. For example it can be a product/brand such as GoPro, Nikon, Kodak or service such as MySpace, Etsy, FreshDirect, Paypal etc. The latter group can also include various social media/networking platforms as well as B2B sites. In addition, I find it very valuable when doing a project of this nature specifically for non-profit/charitable organizations since they are heavily dependent on the use of digital media due to financial constraints.
The important point here is that the product or service you choose NEEDS a new marketing plan because for various reasons (based on research you will conduct) it is not growing as well as expected (and in comparison with its competitors) in the marketplace.
Research: Find at least 5 articles that are at least 3 pages in length each, focused on a single product or product line, service or idea detailed above. Business Magazines that are likely to contain articles that meet these criteria include Fortune, Forbes, WSJ, Business Week among others. In addition there are many digital marketing news magazines that you should use (e.g. CMO.com, Mediapost, adage, internet retailer etc.) Articles should be dated 2018, 2017, 2016, or 2015. These articles are to be used to conduct a situation analysis on your product/company. For example, if you choose to do a digital marketing plan for JetBlue, then find and select articles about the parent company and its recent digital and online strategies regarding its brand and offerings. What have they been doing, have they or have they not been as successful competing with other big players like American and Southwest, and try to get as much detail as possible about the company itself and its digital marketing/advertising strategies and also financial performance data from their annual reports and other sources including those listed below through Pace library. Remember the more detailed and comprehensive your report the better your grade. Almost everything you write should be based on facts, data and research you conduct online. Always cite your sources fully and correctly so I can access the same information quickly.
The number of articles you need will depend on the amount of information you find in your article (s). The more the better of course, but choose articles that add value to your project. Your assignment will be to develop/infer the marketing plan using the basic concepts of marketing learned in class. Use the headings and sub-headings as noted below.

What belief do students have in Growth Mindset theories? What effect, if any, does Growth Mindset theories have on students?
The paper is a research paper based on Growth Mindset for students focused on 3 questions:
1) What belief do students have in Growth Mindset theories?
2) What effect, if any, does Growth Mindset theories have on students?
3) Can positive behaviors or actions from guardians/educators be the cause of student’s successes rather than the theory of Growth Mindset? (For example, saying “Nice job on that homework” motivates the student, not so much an intrinsic belief from the student that they will succeed)
I have provided 6 articles/sources that MUST be used as these are the 6 I am using to write the paper. All I need is the annotated bibliography of the 6 articles/sources I have provided.
THANK YOU!

Student Loan Debt in America – Literature Review
All sources must be found on the UMUC’s library.
Website: www.umuc.edu
Please ask support for log in information
*. you wrote all of the papers mentioned below as reference.
In the synthesis essay, you will focus on Student Loan Debt in America.
You will divide the essay into categories. Each category will be labelled with a heading.
In the synthesis essay, you will focus your research efforts in a particular area, perhaps as a response to what you found while writing the annotated bibliography (this site wrote) and in constructing the four-source and six-source essays (this site wrote all of these papers). You will then conduct more research and synthesize your findings in this literature review.
You might decide to disregard several of the articles you analyzed in the critical annotated bibliography or in the following two essays because they don’t speak to the specific area on which you decide to write your multiple-source literature review. You might select one article that you analyzed in the critical annotated bibliography, look up the articles cited in the article, and “snowball” your research that way.

Can this change be described as an increase in social equality and greater cultural freedom (i.e. – freedom of thought and religious belief)? As greater political and economic liberty?
By 1750 the English colonies on the North American mainland had matured and changed. What were the key ways in which the colonial societies of this era (1700-1750) differed from those of the early 17th century (1600-1650)? Can this change be described as an increase in social equality and greater cultural freedom (i.e. – freedom of thought and religious belief)? As greater political and economic liberty?

Was the “Myth of the Blitz” a myth?
To some extent, all nations that experienced the war have made the war part of their national identity. For Americans, it’s the “Good War,” for Germans, the “Bad War,” for Russians, the “Great Patriotic War.” The Chinese see it as a victory over Japanese aggression; the Japanese see it as proof of the value of nationalism or pacifism, depending on whom you ask.
In Britain, the war is often portrayed as a confirmation of the values most associated with British identity: respect for the rule of law, a belief in fairness, and a stiff upper lip. They recognized a threat; they were attacked; they pulled together; they saved the world. For some, however, this view of the war is a myth, invented by propagandists during the war and maintained by historians and politicians after the war.
One problem with this argument, though, is that many of those who experienced the war were, and continued to be, strong proponents of this view themselves. In this paper, use the sources from Weeks Four and Five, and choose THREE additional sources from either the “People’s War” site or the Imperial War Museum’s archives to support your argument about whether the Myth of the Blitz was a myth at all.
The objective of an informative essay is not to present your view, but “to inform or educate the audience on a given topic” (The KU Handbook for Writers, 2008, p. 102).

How do folktales, legends, and mythologies help a culture to “teach” its members? How do you think about “American Exceptionalism”?
One page per question please
Question #1: Culture and Mythologies
Each culture has its repertoire of mythologies. They even borrow from each other a little in creating mythologies, such as the story of George Washington admitted chopping down a cherry tree, “Honest Abe” (Lincoln) walked ten miles (or one mile, or three miles, give or take) to return one penny (or three pennies, give or take) to a customer, etc. Yet each culture makes some extraordinary claims about how their culture is exceptional and superior to other cultures.
So, the question is: How do folktales, legends, and mythologies help a culture to “teach” its members? How do you think about “American Exceptionalism”? Some commentators think it is a mythology, yet our President and political leaders keep citing it to justify our foreign policy. To what degree do you agree with “American Exceptionalism” and to what degree should we caution about it?
Question #2: Negotiating identity through communication
Okay, enough has been said about the positive side of identity thing. Now, let’s face the negative side of identity thing. Again, how we communicate and how our communication is received by others can be shaped by (1) our sense of “who we are,” (2) our sense of “who they are,” and (3) their sense of “who we are.” (- “I am not what you think I am. I am not what I think I am. I am what I think you think I am.”) Therefore, we need to constantly negotiate our identity with others and with ourselves through communication. Because of this identity thing, we could get confused, frustrated, and even neurotic. In a multicultural society, identity carry the baggage of racism, bigotry, prejudice, and stereotypes. It could disempower us. Sometimes I feel some people expect me to behave like a specific type of human being. But I don’t want to fulfill their definition of who I am, I can enter some awkward situation… Tell me your story of negotiating your identity with others through communication.
Guidelines for response:
*answer the questions head-on rather beating around the bush.
*completely answer the questions raised in the prompt rather than partially answer the question
*argue logically, i.e. points driving points with strong evidence to support the claim.
*fresh idea and independent-thinking, not platitude and parroting.
*write with style: good diction, compelling rhetoric, and concision.
*being conscious of grammar, punctuation, and citation.

Develop Scales and Questionnaire:
• The scale is published in a Scimago top quartile journal or in a journal with a JCR impact factor over 1
• all of the items (questions) make complete sense in your study (preferably) without editing or omitting any items. Contextual changes are fine, e.g. changing reference to a country
• Each scale should ideally have between 5 and 10 (or 12) items Ideally, they should all utilize Likert scales and if I would recommend using 7 points (strongly, moderately, slightly) regardless of number of points in the original scale, as you will be able to get better, more differentiated results.
• adequately explained the PROCESS of how you created your self-developed scales. Where did the items come from? E.g. literature, consulting experts, focus groups etc. You need a scientific method to generate these
• Your self-developed scales will work best if the measures are also quantified in Likert scale format (or rating scales). Nominal/categorical items will have little value.
• devising a scale for neighbourhood economic status (NES) (we have previously discussed possible items, e.g car ownership, vacations abroad etc),
• I need to develop scales on neighbourhood economic status (NES) and family background rest of contrast scales are available

Communication among members of teams, between departments and service lines, within large networks, with strategic business partners, and with patients, families, or support persons requires awareness of various facets of effective communication and cultural competence. A mobilization plan for an international medical mission requires careful planning of organizational structure roles, power distribution, and team member empowerment.

What model of HRM practice is the most widely practised by airlines in highly competitive markets and why?
Find academic research that specifically discusses airlines HRM practices, strategies and processes. Rather than focus on specific HRM models you focus on identifying how airlines practice HRM and on identify what practices are the most prevalent. The term model in this case is not a specific HRM theory but “your” description of those most prevalent practices.
Write a Director’s Statement outlining how you would direct a film based on one of your own original stories.
We assess the story, but mainly you are assessed on the ability to communicate your vision of a film, encompassing its key elements, from a director’s point of view. You must use what you learned in the lectures about genre, camera, lighting, sound, editing and more to illuminate a story on the cinema screen.
Here is a simplified rubric:
Story: creativity, thematic sophistication and narrative cohesion: 30%
Director’s vision: use of FIVE of casting, genre, locations, production design, camera, lighting, sound, music, editing, special and visual FX: 50%
Engagement and effort: 10%
Presentation incl. spelling and grammar: 10%
Also attached is an example to show you what we are looking for. This has been written as if director Stanley Donan was one of your classmates, and he as a student of Making Movies One has written his own original story for a film called Singin’ in the Rain (which you may recall from our lectures!). Remember YOUR submission must be YOUR ORIGINAL IDEA and NOT an existing film.
Some Tips
TITLE: What’s a snappy or intriguing title for your film? What will look good on a movie poster?
LOGLINE: You can choose either a short sentance or phrase that would look good in a movie listing or review site OR you can use an elevator pitch format such as this “In a (SETTING) a (PROTAGONIST) has a (PROBLEM) (caused by an ANTAGONIST) and (faces CONFLICT) as they try to (achieve a GOAL).” or a simpler version such as “When [a major event happens], [the hero], must [do the main action].”. Experiment with these to find the right fit for your film.
SYNOPSIS & AUDIENCE: Regarding the synopsis – it’s very difficult to compress stories into a small number of words. However, as a filmmaker you are constantly required to do this, so its good practice. Once you are thinking about the question “what are the KEY elements of my story?” then you are doing an exercise that is actually very helpful in understanding your story in its totality, rather than its details. Regarding the audience – who will you market your film to, what age and gender and what distribution avenues are perfect for your film e.g. film festivals/cinema/video on demand/network television/YouTube?
DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT: What tools in your director’s toolkit can you use to tell your story in an imaginative and engaging way? How will pacing, framing, soundtrack and lighting moods affect your audience? What special FX do you need, if any, and how are they justified by the story? How can you show particular sides of your protagonist’s character through props or locations, without needing any dialogue to explain it? What genre does your film fit into – or what genres does it blend and borrow from, using what generic elements? Use small details to illuminate key elements of your vision, so it reads as if we can see the movie play before our own eyes.
Human Resources, Sexual Harassment Training Plan
There are several standardized training events in large organizations that are required annually or biannually. One of these is often sexual harassment. For this assignment, write a training plan for all employees in your firm to educate and develop their awareness of sexual harassment and understanding of legal and organizational policies. Be sure to include training aspects of planning, design, implementation, and evaluation.
This plan should be in narrative form with a minimum requirement of 500 words. Discuss the following guidelines to complete your plan.
Planning: Should all employees be trained at once? If not, who should be trained first? What are the anticipated outcomes or terminal learning objectives of the training?
Design: In what format should the training be given, and why? What modalities will be used for employees on multiple shifts or in multiple locations? What are the core elements of the training that will align with the learning objectives?
Implementation: Who will lead the training, and how will it be implemented? Will you be training for knowledge or behavior change? How will you conduct the actual training to account for knowledge and/or behavioral change?
Evaluation: How will you know if the training was successful? What measures will you use to know if employees 1) learned from the training, 2) behaved differently after the training, and 3) the training has a bottom line impact to the firm?

OSHA’s personal protective equipment (PPE) standard
OSHA’s personal protective equipment (PPE) standard requires employers to assess the workplace to determine if hazards are present, which may necessitate the use of PPE. Based on the assessment, appropriate PPE must be selected and provided to affected employees.
Using Subpart I Appendix B as a guide, develop a hazard assessment for your workplace or a workplace with which you are familiar. If you work in an office, or if you work in another non-hazardous location, develop an assessment for an imagined industrial shop such as woodworking or metalworking. Use the other sections of Subpart I to help determine the appropriate PPE for each hazard. You can also use online safety equipment catalogs to find examples of PPE that meet the OSHA requirements.

If this local or county entity was faced with a 2% reduction in general fund resources, what specific expenditure reductions would you recommend and why?
The goal of public organizations is to provide public services. This is done through expenditures ranging from salary for law enforcement personal to maintenance of public parks. Governments provide a wide range of public goods and often there is more demand for services than revenue to pay for those services. Determining annual expenditures is one of the primary functions of any governing body and trade-off typically have to be made.
In this discussion, you will review the expenditure priorities of COOK COUNTY ILLINOIS. Finally, you will make recommendation of how to reduce future year expenditures when faced with a revenue short-fall.
Be sure to first review your readings from this week and prior weeks that will help support this discussion and then research additional resources to assist in your evaluation. For example, it is helpful to examine available data and other public documents for the city or county. These resources are useful and should be incorporated into your discussion. Also be sure to incorporate the Mikesell text to support your analysis.
With these thoughts in mind:
By Day 4
In looking at your local or county government budget, identify 3 departments which get the most general fund resources. Next, identify the expenditure categories that are most important in the total spending for each department. Finally, If this local or county entity was faced with a 2% reduction in general fund resources, what specific expenditure reductions would you recommend and why?

Is it connected to problems in police training and the militarization of police departments and their social distancing from the citizenry?
Watch film(LA Confidential) and answer questions below.
Most big-city police departments adopted the reforms Chief Parker introduced to the LAPD in the early 1950s, and most big-city police departments today are racially integrated. Yet police-community relations today are in a terrible state, judging by the persistence of abuse of Use-of-Force laws, racial profiling, racial scapegoating, and violence against unarmed and innocent minorities (the crisis in Ferguson, Missouri is being repeated in many other towns and cities). How would you explain this? Is it due to the persistence of racism in society as a whole, with it becoming more “acceptable” again to openly express racial animosity? Is it connected to problems in police training and the militarization of police departments and their social distancing from the citizenry? Is it due to the omnipresence of guns or changes in crime patterns (the waning of organized crime, except for foreign-based drug cartels—and the preoccupation of police with the war on drugs and criminal acts by drug users)?

Create a Dating App Algorithm that is Inclusive to Different Kinds of People
First, Read this – you are going to create an algorithm – don’t worry you don’t need to have any coding experience.
Submit: An algorithm with 20 steps that matches folks looking for romance/friendship
An algorithm for our purposes is going to be a set of instructions. You should have a list of at least 20 of these instructions. Go wild with this. Based on what we have read and watched about flaws in algorithms – and the violence they commit against various folks of political interests, genders, sexualities, body types, and race – do your best to build something that is better. This assignment has no definitive answer and that’s ok. I want you to be experimental here – and try things out – even if they fail. A good place to start is the video about OK cupid. We have a model – a set of instructions for a computer to follow that is in place (see the watch video). You can copy the model from OK Cupid and then make alterations that you think will make it better.
Will you decrease questions? What about picture swiping? Be a little bit of a social engineer. How will you use an app/algorithim to make the world better/more equitable?
There is so much written on this subject. Do some research to get inspired (algorithms and dating)
Please submit a list of 20 instructions a computer can follow to match people based on romance/friendship
It would help if you can draw a tree using draw.io. The way a computer works is that it makes a decision based on a yes or no answer to a previous question.
Here is a primer for your model structure.

Factor Analysis
Class Discussion Please answer these question briefly and separately.
1. Have the MBI subscales been established through
factor analysis? If so, could you please cite the study where that was
done and provide a description of the results of that analysis?
2. The Harter (1981) instrument sounds like an
interesting instrument for assessing intrinsic versus extrinsic motivation for
children. Do you know the exact name of the scale? Could you please
explain what the researchers found when they conducted the factor analysis
(such as how many factors and what they named the factors/what the factors
measure)?
3. DASS has been examined using factor analysis. Could
you please describe what factors were found in the two-factor model compared to
the factors in the three factor model? In other words, did the
three-factor solution find factors consistent with the subscales of depression,
stress, and anxiety? What were the constructs supported by the two-factor
solution?
4. What are the subscales of the Revised Child Anxiety and
Depression Scale? The source that you cited used the French version of
the instrument, which would only be relevant if you were using the French
version in your research. Can you please find a research study that
conducted a factor analysis of the English version of the instrument and report
the factors that were found?
use the author as one of your sources

Thank you.
Depth vs. Breadth: Briefly describe a topic, the theory you would use to analyze it, and your resulting research question.
Topics:
Depth vs. Breadth: Sociologists planning new studies must often choose between the detail and realism of qualitative data (depth of information), which sacrifices some generalizability, and the large samples and generalizable findings of quantitative data (breadth of information), which sacrifices realistic detail. Briefly describe a topic, the theory you would use to analyze it, and your resulting research question. Then discuss how you would handle this tradeoff in doing research on that question. Be sure to explain not just your choices but also your reasons–why would you choose a particular type of data to answer your question, and why is or isn’t it important for you to have a large sample? (Notes: To do this topic well, you must state and discuss a specific research question–don’t skip that step! Also, this can be a trial run for Writing Assignment 2 — feel free to use your intended topic, theory, research question, etc. for the Assignment, and see what kind of feedback you get.)
Research in the News: Find a newspaper, magazine, or web article that discusses a social science research study (see article requirements below). In your post, briefly describe the research and then use the issues and concerns in Unit 7 to assess its quality—or, if the article is missing important details, what further information you would need to evaluate the study. Some areas to think about: research design, data type, sample and generalizability, whether adequate control variables are included, validity and reliability of measures, possible Hawthorne effects, research ethics, etc. At the beginning or end of your post, provide a citation that includes the article author, date, title, publication title, and URL (if applicable).
ARTICLE REQUIREMENTS: The article must address social behavior, events, or issues—it cannot be purely medical or biological research. It must provide enough detail on a single study that you can evaluate the research – do not use an article that briefly summarizes several studies. To find an article, you can try searching news sources like the AJC or New York Times. I also found the Science Daily website to be a pretty good source: go to http://www.sciencedaily.com/, then click on the Society/Education tab or just search “sociology” and see what you get.
Suggestions for reply comments: Both topics require that you really understand the unit concepts and are able to apply them. If you see someone headed down the wrong path—e.g., misusing a concept, omitting an important concern—help get them back on the right track. Also, remember that while there are better and worse ways to address these questions, there are no 100% correct answers. Thus, feel free to agree or (kindly) disagree with people’s research choices and critiques, and do not take it personally if they disagree with yours.
Critical Analysis of a Book
In writing a response, assume the reader has already read the book. Thus, do not summarize the contents of the book at length. Instead, take a critical, analytical approach to the book. There is no right or wrong answer to a book response; however, it is important that you demonstrate an understanding of the reading and clearly explain your support your reactions.
First, mention the title of the book to which you are responding, the author, and the main thesis of the book. Then, try to answer ALL of the questions below.
1. What does the text have to do with you, personally, and with your life (past, present or future)? It is not acceptable to write that the text has NOTHING to do with you, since just about every book has to do in some way with every other human.
2. How much does the book agree or clash with your worldview? What do you agree or disagree with? Use several quotes as examples of how it agrees with and supports what you think about the world and about what you think it is to be human. Use quotes and examples to discuss how the book disagrees with what you think about the world.
3. How did you learn and how much were your views and opinions challenged or changed by this book, if at all? Did the book communicate with you? Why or why not? Give examples of how your views might have changed or been strengthened, or perhaps, of why the book failed to convince you, the way it is. Use quotes to illustrate your points of challenge, or where you were persuaded, or where it left you cold.
4. How well does it address things that you, personally, care about and consider important to the world? Can you identify with the situation(s) in the book? How does it address things that are important to your family, your community, your ethnic group, to people of your economic or social class or background, or your faith tradition? If not, who does or did the book serve? Use quotes to illustrate.
5. What is your overall reaction to the book? How do you feel about what you are reading? How well did you enjoy the book or not?What would be the best way to evaluate the story? Use quotes or examples to illustrate the quality of the book.
FYI: you don’t need to use footnotes. When quoting or citing from the book, simply put author, year published and page numbers in parenthesis, for example (Hensley, 2010: 6). This is a critical essay, not a research paper.
Motivation and Reward
Requiring employees to perform or execute their responsibilities is a typical component to an organization’s system. Telling employees to perform may often leave them feeling like they are being controlled. However, when employees feel motivated, the process transitions from being told to perform to wanting to perform. As such, employees’ performance is greatly enhanced when they are motivated to do so. For this discussion, describe a situation you have experienced where motivation has positively influenced an employee’s performance. If you do not have any workplace experience, consider a situation that you have experienced in school when you felt motivated to improve your performance. In either case, what techniques were used to instill motivation? In responding to your classmates’ posts, respectfully critique the experiences they have shared.

Evidence-Based Practices for working with students with ASD( https://autismpdc.fpg.unc.edu/evidence-based-practices)
Imagine that the school/early childhood setting at which you have begun to teach is about to undertake a peer-led professional development series on evidence-based practice (EBP) when working with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Staff members have been asked to select one EBP from a list of twenty-seven identified practices and present an informative paper to their peers.
As well as to provide information on the EBP, the goal will be to communicate to your colleagues the importance of using EBPs in educational practice, how your specific EBP works to support the development of students with ASD, and provide examples of individual strategies and approaches that could be employed in an educational context.
The use of headings is optional. However, your essay should follow a logical structure, including an introduction, a body, a conclusion, and a list of references. Given the word limit, it will be important that you are able to effectively synthesise the relevant information and ideas to provide informative information that a colleague could utilise to gain a greater understanding of EBPs in education. It is required to use current literature (publications available through the Dixon Library) to justify any instructional recommendations you will make.
Important Notes
• Throughout your assignment, you need to use at least five peer-reviewed references, excluding the textbook.
• Ensure you have edited your work so that there are no typing, spelling or grammatical errors. Make sure your computer is set to English rather than US spelling!
• Check that you have used correct APA referencing conventions (APA 6th).

Academic Essay on the novel “Home” by Toni Morrison
5-page essay, Times New Roman, double-spaced
Essay related to the novel “Home” by Toni Morrison
Must include at least 3 outside sources (such as credible articles from real life or conducted studies as supporting evidence in the essay. The essay can explore major themes in the novel such as racism, gender inequality, home coming, PTSD and etc.
Must follow the basic essay structure with a strong thesis statement
Compare and contrast structure-centred and agency-centred approaches to the study of regime change.
You are asked to produce a 1,200-word theoretical review that will explain, compare and contrast structure-centred and agency-centred approaches to the study of regime change. The aim is to engage with the theory underpinning both approaches.
You should analyse the main aspects of each approach, its main arguments and how the proponents of each understand the puzzle of why regime change occurs in some contexts but not in others. As part of the review of each approach you should be critical and highlight the central weaknesses and limitations of the approach you are discussing. You could also perhaps consider whether the two approaches can be reconciled. Some reference should be made to real-life cases, but it is not the aim of the assignment to discuss any case or cases in any great depth.
As part of this assignment you should also put forward an analysis of which approach you think is most convincing in terms of explaining regime change. The essay should consist of an introduction, a main body (consisting of several paragraphs) and a conclusion. Remember to draw on the appropriate scholarly literature for each approach, making full use of the writings and ideas of key scholars. To this end, the reading lists for weeks 2, 3, 4 and 5 are crucial for this assignment.
The point of this review is to ensure that you have the theoretical grounding to explore the practical issues in the study of regime change that will form part of the essay questions for the second assignment.

Cinema of small nation in Saudi Arabia
The LR chapter will be around 10K words (for now you’ll do 5k words and next month I’ll order another 5k words) and I need you to adopt a model for Saudi cinema and the model should match with the theoretical framework I’m using “the political economy approach and specifically using an analysing the ownership and control”, and the 5K words must answer these question:
*How do the frameworks of national cinema and small nations’ cinemas illuminate the case of Saudi Arabian cinema?
*How would you define Saudi Arabia cinema?
*Why are small nations’ cinemas relevant for this thesis?
*What features and conditions of small nations’ cinemas have scholars identified?
*Which of these features is relevant to the Saudi case, and in what ways?
*What does looking at Saudi cinema through the lens of small nations’ cinemas accomplish? (That is, why is this a useful critical framework?)
*What does a national cinema include? Then explain what key characteristics of national cinemas would be relevant to the Saudi case.
I’ll upload 2k words draft I did and you’ll see my supervisor comments. You can get the sources I’ve used and I’ll upload a pdf of two books that is very helpful.

FAMILY MINISTRY PHILOSOPHY from a Protestant Evangelical perspective
Some suggested sources or references are Pastor Rick Warren’s 2 books “THE PURPOSE DRIVEN CHURCH” , and “THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE”.. also MOST ANY book or magazine on evangelical YOUTH MINISTRY OR DISCIPLESHIP OR, MOST ANYTHING BY AUTHORS DOUG FIELDS, especially “THE PURPOSE DRIVEN YOUTH MINISTRY”, or “PARENTING TODAY’S ADOLESCENT” by Dennis & Barbara Rainey, or most any Christian books or magazines on Adolescent and Child development, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU MUST USE THE SMALL BOOK TITILED, “SHIFT” (what it takes to reach Families today) by BRIAN HAYNES , The focus of the paper must be about this book called “SHIFT”!!! THE PAPER IS TO CREATE AND DESIGN A MODEL FOR FAMILY MINISTRY. IT IS ESSENTIALLY A DISCIPLESHIP PAPER. How did Jesus do it and how was it done in the old testament?? The entire book SHIFT is FOUNDED UPON the principles of the SHEMA in Deuteronomy 6:5-7. The paper should be laced with scriptural references so the king James Bible can be a source or reference as well. The paper explains through modeling and teaching how parents disciple their children to be like CHRIST!!! The tiny book SHIFT which is only about 136 pages has 7 milestones that must be used which are stages of child and adolescent development in Christian growth. According to class requirements, the paper needs to discuss these 7 milestones and maybe use some of these other sources to confirm them. Israelis children were taught in the old testament by the principles of the Shema in Deut.6:5-7 . How do we institute those today in our churches. Also according to the class requirements, the paper needs to have these sections within the paper–After the Introduction, 1. The Theological component of the Family Ministry model, 2. The Educational Component of the family ministry model, 3.THE BASIC STRUCTURE OF THE BOOK “SHIFT” ,MILESTONES OF CHILD & ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT, 1 THRU 7 WITH AN EXPLANATION OF MILESTONE, and LASTLY, THE APPLICATION of how parents do this, and of course some type of bibliography at the end.
Please write one page per question and address all aspects of questions:
Question one: Q #1. Perception Isn’t Reality, Or Is It?
Recently I heard a time-honored trick in car dealership: car salesman lures the customer with the deal; reveal it doesn’t apply to the car being considered; then have a word with manager, who – hallelujah! – agrees to an exception, and customer, with a great relief, happily buy the car with the price originally intended by the car dealer. So, change perception, change reality.
I also heard that happiness equals reality minus expectation. So you will be less miserable if you don’t go to the Facebook to be constantly out-shined by your fantastic friends.
Is there any particle of truth in the statement that “perception is reality?” If not, why do we often forget that it isn’t and, reject others’ reality as “nonsense” and insist our reality as the only legitimate one? How does our imperfect perception system get us into trouble in our interaction with others? How could we put our perception in perspective so we can enter a reasonable negotiation with others in regard to whose reality is more accurate?
Use your life experience, news stories, and others’ research to make a measured argument.
Question 2: Q #2. Gender role and cultural war
One of the most important family patterns is the teaching of accepted gender roles. In any society, gender is a key feature of a person’s social identity; gender differences are more influenced by culture than biology. In the past 100 years, we saw great shift in gender roles all over the world. Cultural wars are waged regarding to the shift and further rip open the old fabric of the culture. Tell me the positive thing about the shift. Is there anything negative about the shift? How does our mass media system and politics enter the fray and make it more complicated (I mean America is so gender divided not knowing our true enemy is not our man and our woman – I might wrong)? Do you believe technology and social media will make major alteration to gender roles in the next ten years? Why or why not?

Case Study-A young black woman’s experience
Write to the uninformed. Write your response to someone who has no idea what higher education is all about. You need to explain thoroughly, make connections to evidence, and use examples from the case to bolster your points. If you do that, you will most likely offer the clear and thorough arguments the faculty want to see.
Analyze the case and provide a potential approach to addressing the issues, informed by
theory and evidence-based concepts.
Criteria
The faculty are less interested in you being “right” in your analysis than in seeing evidence that
you can integrate the information you have learned across the curriculum, think through it
critically, and apply it effectively.
What the faculty want to see as part of your analysis:
Discussion of major issues in the case
Application of theory
Using evidence-based concepts to inform the analysis
Thinking critically about the case, its component parts, and the best approach to
addressing the issues
Connecting a wide variety of course materials and content to inform the analysis
Writing that demonstrates professional level work, including adherence to APA
guidelines
Here are some things for you to consider:
Evidence-based concepts could include the following:
o Peer-reviewed journal articles
o Institutionally-based practices that are supported by data
o Research reports from established and recognized organizations
o Theoretically-informed literature or reports from international or national research
centers
Application of theory should do the following:
o Identify the reason the theory was selected
o Discuss concepts/components of the theory in a detailed and thorough manner
o Align each concept/component of the theory with the issues in the case and
explain why the theory informs or leads to the best approach
o If concepts/components of the theory are not used or you do not think they are
applicable, discuss the reasons why
Critical thinking is demonstrated by:
o Analysis of what works and what does not work in the case
o Discussion of the case from different perspectives (e.g., primary character in the
case as well as others involved or impacted constituents, etc.) and levels (e.g.,
individual, work group, etc.)
o Defending the approach as the most appropriate path in context of what we know
from the professional literature
o Examination of how the case is important to the mission of higher education (e.g.,
student development, student success, student learning, etc.)

Does Abraham Lincoln deserve the accolade “The Great Emancipator?” Say why/why not.
Instructions from Professor *** An essay question is given below. This question constitutes a controversial issue in the Civil War period. Your job is to be the historian, take a stance on the issue, and use historical evidence from your notes, the textbook, and the primary source book This Fiery Trial to substantiate your argument. You will not be graded on your point of view; but rather, you will be graded on how well you employ historical evidence in order to prove your thesis statement and your supporting arguments. Also, I have included a prompt on the rules for good historical essays and a breakdown of a sample historian’s argument regarding Indians. Your essay should be structured in a similar way.You will be graded on the quality of your explanation and on the breadth and suitability of the historical examples given. Your essay should be relevant to the question, and the information presented in a clear, logical and coherent fashion.You must cite your sources! You may use Chicago style or MLA format—just so long as you professionally give credit where it is due. As regards to your research, the question requires content that can be derived partly from my lectures (Module 7: The American Civil War) and partly from the Norton text (chapters 11, 12, and 13). Also, it is highly advisable that you peruse your This Fiery Trial book in order to cull primary source evidence on Lincoln’s position regarding American slavery. Also, feel free to pursue wider research, beyond the course materials, if you are so motivated. It will pay dividends in the quality of your answer. Just make sure that you consult credible academic sources and be wary of sources like Wikipedia!Lastly, some advice for my students. It has been my goal in this class to not only teach you all history, but also, I have sought to teach you the tools of the historian: how to identify historical significance, how to analyze historical primary sources, and how to construct a historical argument. It is my hope that by the end of this class, you will not only have learned American history, but you will also have become a historian in the process. And one rule historians live by is to always contextualize their subject! That means that when you judge Lincoln in your essay, you may not judge him against 21st century standards. To hold a historical subject against one’s own modern standards makes for very bad history. Therefore, when you examine Lincoln or cast your judgment on him, compare him to his peers and judge him against the standards of the 19th century. This will make you sound like a professional and objective historian.
Please professionally respond to the following question:
Does Abraham Lincoln deserve the accolade “The Great Emancipator?” Say why/why not.***
If you have any questions please let me know, I have attached the lectures mentioned in the instructions for your use. Also try to use the Abraham Lincoln book mentioned in the directions if possible. thanks!

What is Tyler’s diagnosis? What are his symptoms that would support this diagnosis?
The clinical vignette for modules 7, 8, & 9 is listed below. Please diagnose the individual, and list the symptoms you used to support your diagnosis. Make sure to review the criteria from the book and powerpoint slides before you submit. Grades will be based on the accuracy of the diagnosis and the symptoms you identify to support it. Please provide your answers in a document and attach as a submission.
Tyler is a 22 y/o college senior at UC Davis. He is referred to you for therapy by the campus health center. Tyler’s clothes appear dirty and disheveled, and he tends to not make eye contact and to giggle at inappropriate times throughout the session. Much of his behavior and speech patterns throughout the session are difficult to understand.
Tyler also mentions several times that the police have been tracking his movements for the past year. He states, “They’ve tormented me almost daily by hiding in trees and taking my picture, and have implanted a mind-control device so I’m unable to think my own thoughts.” Although he denies ever seeing them he is quite certain that he’s correct in his beliefs. When you ask if he could be mistaken he accuses you of being a plant of the local police department and that you stand up and let him check your pockets.
The Health Center has sent medical records also detailing Tyler’s tendency to have a flat affect at times and having become more and more isolated over the past year. He is also at risk of failing out of school and losing his housing due to his behaviors.
What is Tyler’s diagnosis?
What are his symptoms that would support this diagnosis? Make sure to be very specific in your description of the symptoms.
DISSERTATION/ART BEYOND POST METAPHYSICS AND POST MODERNISM/ART BEYOND POST METAPHYSICS
Cézanne’s manner of painting, whilst it is quite evident that he employed little ‘taches’ or segments of color-form that together compose the whole. But these segments are not curvilinear, as far as I can tell.
I can think of many other good examples, which have the added bonus to focus on a genealogy of modernism (which I think it’s at the center of your research question) that takes us away from the received one that starts with Cézanne. Suppose you were to focus, instead, on the French movement called “Orphism,” and associated figures such as Apollinaire, Sonya and Robert Delaunay, Paul Signac, the chemist Chevreul (who developed a theory of color; in fact, I think that color should also be a factor in your study); that in my opinion would be a much more promising avenue, because it will shed light on a lineage of modernism that is not often considered in the usual narrative. That will also take you to examine abstraction and spiritualism, for example, in the artwork of Hilma Af Klint (who is having a retrospective at the Guggenheim just now), who used the circular figure in almost all her paintings; the works by Kandinsky from the 1920 and ’30s; examples of Russian “Cosmism,” and the relatively unknown branch of spiritualist art from the Baltic region (Lithuania, Estonia, etc.) – see in particular the exhibition catalogue from the Musée d’Orsay from last summer.
Even Van Gogh would be a better starting point to illustrate curvism than Cézanne (all his work has a sort of sweeping circular motion to it).
Finally, you should look into historical precedents, such as the “serpentine line” which was considered a trait of beauty in Italian Mannerism and later in Hogarth (Treatise on Beauty). This will give you a historical as well a theoretical underpinning. I also recommend to look into the writings by Henri Focillon, Hubert Damisch, and Merleau Ponty, of course (there is much in this idea of the curve that has to do with embodiment). Rudolf Arnheim is also an author you should look into (and the whole Gestalt philosophy movement).
Finally, you should start compiling a list of texts that are more closely related to the topic at hand, to see where the gaps and the blind spots in the research are. Keep it up!

Assignment 2: Research Critique
What is good quality research? 50%
(2000 words)
This 2000 word (excluding references) paper comprises a response to the question What is good quality research? through a critique of at least two of the research seminars presented or two readings throughout the semester that you explored in EDU6195: Advanced Seminar. Each seminar is unique and there is no universally agreed upon set of criteria for what constitutes good research and yet, it is a constant aspect of academic work to judge others research. We would like you to begin developing the skills to review research; form a judgment about it; and be able to justify how you came to that judgement. You will draw on the unit readings, the unit text, and other appropriate literature to support your critique.
We expect you to structure your paper with an introduction, conclusion and subheadings in the body of the paper. Nonetheless, you may be guided by the following set of questions:
1. Does the title indicate the nature of the research?
2. Are the objectives or purposes of the research clearly identified?
3. Are the objectives or purposes of the research fulfilled?
4. If hypotheses were postulated, are they proved or not proved?
5. Has a sufficient amount of literature relating to the topic been studied?
6. Does the literature review, if any, provide an indication of the state of knowledge in the subject? Is the topic placed in the context of the area of the research as a whole?
7. Are all terms clearly identified or explained?
8. Are the selected methods of data collection suitable for the task? Why were they chosen?
9. Are any limitations of the study clearly presented?
10. Are the data analysed and interpreted or merely described?

Ethical Decision Making and Moral Climate in Justice and Security
How to manage use-of-force ethical issues: This research must address what criminal justice and private security managers and executives are doing to address use-of-force issues from an ethical point of view. The research must describe modern methods of controlling police brutality, the Use of Force Matrix, training, and legal issues concerning use of force by law enforcement.
1-A problem or issue statement
2-Research questions
The above mentioned are the two topics to cover for this research paper.
Deception by the Investigating Officer in the Investigative, Interrogative, and Testimonial Processes
The purpose behind this assignment is to examine two juxtaposing ethical behaviors that occur in the criminal justice system. For example, investigating officers are not only allowed but are even encouraged to lie and use deception during the investigation and interrogation process as a means to obtain to the truth and ultimately seek justice. This is an ends-justify-the-means, borderline ethical practice that shows students the pragmatic difference between deontological and ontological ethics.
discuss deception in the investigative, interrogative, and testimonial processes. Answer the following questions:
Is it ethical to lie to obtain to the truth? Do the ends justify the means?
Is there a conflict between the code of ethics and how law enforcement is really conducted?
What role do physical behavior and nonverbal communication play in detecting deception?
Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.

DECISION-MAKING BIASES AND PITFALLS
Module 2 – Case
DECISION-MAKING BIASES AND PITFALLS
Case Assignment
Even the most intelligent manager is prone to personal biases and pitfalls that can lead to bad decisions. We all carry biases based on our personal experiences. And we can all fall into various traps that lead to decisions that seem perfectly logical at the time but in retrospect, we see that we should have known better.
Carefully review all assigned readings and make sure you understand the different types of biases. Then read through the scenarios below and think about what kind of biases are demonstrated in each scenario. For each scenario, carefully explain which specific bias or biases is demonstrated by the decision and what can be done to avoid this bias in the future. Make sure to pick at least one specific bias that you read about for each scenario, and explain your reasoning. Use references to at least one of the three required readings from the background materials in your discussion of each scenario below. Your CASE paper should be 4–5 pages in length:
1. The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of a corporation is of the strong belief that marketing is not a good use of the company’s money. Someone shows her data from several years ago showing that during a period of high spending on marketing, sales did not go up. She says, “See, I told you marketing is not a good use of our budget!” and cuts the marketing budget to almost zero. Following the cut in the marketing budget, sales also start to drop dramatically. When asked by an employee if the drop in sales is due to the cut in the marketing budget, she says, “No!” and insists there must be a different explanation. What kind of decision-making bias do you think this represents, and why? What steps would you recommend to this CEO to reduce this kind of bias? Support your answer with references to at least one of the three background readings.
2. A CEO decides that he wants to greatly expand the company’s market by purchasing a major rival. This acquisition would double the company’s market share. However, several of his top managers warn him that such a purchase would require the company to take out a huge amount of debt to finance this merger, and that many of these large mergers have failed. They also point out that the organizational culture of the other company is very different and that managing this merger would be very difficult. Nonetheless, the CEO insists that he can overcome the odds and plans to go through with the merger. What kind of decision-making bias do you think this represents, and why? What steps should this leader take to avoid this bias? Support your answer with references to at least one of the three background readings.
3. A CEO wants to purchase a new factory. He is currently deciding between two factories. The owner of Factory A brags that 94% of products produced at the factory are free of defects. The owner of Factory B cautions that his factory has a 5% defect rate but management and staff are working very hard to reduce the rate. The CEO decides to purchase Factory A citing its strong 94% rate of success in producing defect-free products even though Factory B actually has a 95% rate of success. What kind of decision-making bias do you think this represents, and why? What steps should this leader take to avoid this bias?
4. A CEO of an automobile company decides to introduce a new hybrid vehicle using cutting-edge technology. A huge amount of money is spent in research and development as well as advertising. But when the car is completed sales are very slow and the price has to be cut so low that the company is losing money on every hybrid vehicle sold. She is advised to simply abandon the car to avoid further losses in profits, and focus her energy on selling profitable vehicles. However, she insists it is unwise to abandon the hybrid vehicle given that so much money has already been put into the project. What kind of decision-making bias do you think this represents, and why? What steps should this leader take to avoid this bias? Support your answer with references to at least one of the three background readings.
5. Conclude the paper with a discussion about which one of the decision-making biases you think is the most dangerous to a leader, and explain your reasoning.
Assignment Expectations
• Follow the assignment instructions closely and follow all steps listed in the instructions.
• Stay focused on the precise assignment questions; don’t go off on tangents or devote a lot of space to summarizing general background materials.
• Make sure to cite readings from the background materials page. Rely primarily on the required background readings as your sources of information.
Include both a bibliography and in-text citations. See the Student Guide to Writing a High-Quality Academic Paper, including pages 13 and 14 on in-text citations.
Step 4: ANALYZE ATTACK VECTORS AND KNOWN ATTRIBUTION.
You’ve discussed attack vector and attribution with your nation state team members. In this step, your group will prepare an Attack Vector and Attribution Analysis of your group’s findings in the previous steps. The analysis should first identify all possible attack vectors via hardware, software, operating systems, telecommunications, and human factors. Next, you should discuss whether attribution is known for the threat actor (hackers and actors) likely involved in exploiting each weakness. Integrate supporting research via in-text citations and a reference list. This analysis will play a key role in the development of a Vulnerability Assessment Matrix and Cybersecurity Risk Assessment in the next few steps.

Please use the below to construct writing involves women rights, no need for title or any introductions. please use as much space in the page as you can to add more content.
Women rights:
The objective of women right has always been main challenging topic in the most modern societies due to existing policies that repress women rights in all aspects of life such as healthcare, education and income, and especially in the countries that human rights laws are not protecting or aligned with women rights such as countries that are ruled by religious and dictatorship governments. Most global human rights organizations are working towards establishing long-lasting solutions to meet justice for women around the world (Women’s Rights Law Reporter, 2013).

Urban Management Practice: Governance and Power in the City
****** Conduct and write a governance AUDIT REPORT about an urban management institution, such as a state agency such as the Greater Sydney Commission or Landcom, an airport authority, a municipal council, a lobbying body such as the Committee for Sydney, a state or Federal department, or a health district.
Your governance audit report should:
1. Describe the organisation you are auditing.
2. Analyse the organisation using the ideas and theories from the readings.
As the course theme is governance and power’ you should frame the report in the critical readings that con- stitute the course material. All of the core readings concern urban management agencies or institutions of some kind, and pull them apart’ analytically. A high distinction report would be similarly critical (not necessarily negative, but conscious that how these bodies work in practice are driven by powerful agents). Reference can be made to media reports, Hansard, Auditor-General reports, Budget Estimates hearings, legislation, public inquiries, etc. if necessary to give you a sense of this
**** FORMAT:***
You should use the style that you believe communicates most effectively. You may use the conventional devices of reports, such as text boxes or diagrams, or follow a more textual approach.
@@@@ Marking Criteria:@@@@
Written Communication and Presentation: The overall presentation of the report and presentation conforms to the standards set out in the Learning Guide.
High Distinction = The writing and presentation are clear, concise and free of typographical and grammatical errors. The report is clear and succinctly convey the key information about the organisation. It has a sophisticated understanding of how to apply critical concepts to explaining how the institution functions, and shows a high level of research into how it operates in practice.
Distinction = The writing and presentation are clear and concise with minimal typographical and grammatical errors. Key aspects of the organisation are accurately conveyed, there is evidence of ability to apply critical con- cepts to explaining how the institution functions, and evidence of research of how the organisation operates in practice.
Credit = The writing and presentation are competent, clear and concise with limited typographical errors. Most key features of the organisation are conveyed clearly. There is moderate evidence of critical concepts, and a largely descriptive and/or formal account of how the organisation operates in practice.
Pass = The writing and presentation are sound, though with varous weaknesses. It has little conceptual insight, but adequately communicates some of the features of the organisation.
Fail = The writing and presentation are poor and unclear with frequent errors of grammar and style. There is no conceptual basis to the report, and very limited coverage of the organisation.

What is the estimated income elasticity of demand? Is Liquid Ozarka a normal or inferior good? A 6 percent increase in average household income would be predicted to cause what percentage change in sales of Liquid Ozarka?
Using the marketing data from the 15 test markets shown above, estimate the parameters of the linear empirical demand function:
1. Using the appropriate tests, Evaluate the significance of the regression as a whole and the significance of the individual parameters at 5% level of significance. (show all your steps and procedure).
If any of the parameter estimates are not significant at the 2 percent level of significance, drop the associated explanatory variable from the model and estimate the demand function again.
a. Your final estimated linear demand function for Liquid Ozarka is
_______________________________________.
b. What percentage of the variation in sales of Liquid Ozarka is explained by your estimated demand function?
2. The marketing consultants describe a “typical” market as one in which the price of Liquid Ozarka is $3.50 per gallon, average household income is $45,000, the price of rival bottled water is $3 per gallon, and the population is 75,000.

Challenges of Nation and Education System in Pakistan
This research seminar will be based on national challenges/ issues and role of education in addressing these challenges with sub themes:
• Emerging needs and importance of moral education
• Sustainable development and national prosperity
• Competition at global level: Knowledge economies
• Ways to improve assessment and evaluation system
This research seminar will open the new horizons in the field of education and will help to align the education at secondary and higher level with emerging national needs and priorities in a shortest possible span of time. This event will provide a platform for deans, directors, policy makers, curriculum developer teachers and students to share their knowledge and experiences regarding making reforms in education system. This seminar will provide a forum for discussion about identifying existing gaps in national needs and education system. Unfortunately, in Pakistan the future needs are not properly visualized that cause impractical and unrealistic policies that are hard to meet. So this 2 days seminar would offer an open place for discussion to identify national needs and discrepancies in existing educational policy and education system that would lead practical suggestions and experts views about how to bridge gap between national needs and education system to meet future demands.

Create a Critical Thinking Handbook
Each week in this class you were exposed to different elements of critical thinking. Some things might have been a simple review for you while others were concepts to which you might not have been aware. You were asked at the start of this course to begin a critical thinking diary in which you summarized the key points each week, define in your own words and provide examples to support those definitions. Your textbook along with other readings provided you with additional information.
Now it is time to compile all your weekly entries into your Critical Thinking Handbook. Remember, each element in the Handbook will need to be properly cited and referenced. In addition to the course textbook, you also were required to use one additional scholarly source.
Check your Handbook before submitting to be sure that you have included the necessary elements from each assignment in your handbook, and that you have scrupulously followed the rules of Academic Integrity in appropriately paraphrasing and citing anything ideas you drew from the text or outside resources.
Support your paper with at least seven scholarly references. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.
Dr Callahan has argued that the 1920’s were the most important moments in the development of literature in the past 200 years. He has tied this change in poetic method to the Poundian maxim “make it new” in what ways did the poetry of the 1920’s try to “make it new”?
The “Poundian Maxim” refers to Ezra Pound. William Carlos Williams, Ezra Pound and Langston Hughes all wrote poems very different than anything the world had seen before. What techniques allowed them to be successful? William Carlos Williams and Langston Hughes both expressed subjects that poetry had previously considered not to be important (simple things). For example the poem “The Red Wheelbarrow” By William Carlos Williams shows that there is dignity and importance in the simplest things in life. A wheelbarrow is needed for farming and we all depend on farmers for food hence the quote “so much depends on a red wheel barrel”. This essay must be in 5 paragraphs (introduction, conclusion and 3 body paragraphs) and the paragraphs must be organized by concept not by each poet. “The Red Wheelbarrow” and “The Weary Blues” must be used. This essay is all about modern poetry.

How does gender, sexuality, queerness, and other forms of difference impact how we see Asia, and Asian bodies? How and why do these texts express this lived experience differently?
* I would like Essay to be comprised of easy words in a sense that is not to wordy.
Your task in this paper is to compare the artistic readings for this section to produce a critical conversation among texts and understandings of queerness, Asianness, sexuality, and race. Use the critical texts, keywords, and class lectures/discussions to inform your comparison. You should not simply reiterate what a thinker says and then use the artwork to prove that this is true. Instead, write your own original argument and interpretation of the artwork that is informed by, contrasting with, or deviating from the critical framework. A good incorporation of critical work can change the way we look at the art, or change the way we look at the theory, or both.
You must use at least three texts from this section of the course. You should examine too the contemporary historical, cultural, political or economic context to help establish the texts’ intentions (what it is responding to) and its impact.
Following is the 3 text

Do you think Maria Garcias’ actions (getting the Diet Coke) were instilled in her through company training? Or do you think she did it on her own?
View the short video by Ross Shafer from the following URL address on You Tube: https://youtu.be/8T54rQrMleA
The “personal’ side of exceeding customer expectations is probably the most gratifying part of the service industry. It makes the customer feel good and special, and it makes you feel good and special.
From the video, please answer the following questions:
1) Do you think Maria Garcias’ actions (getting the Diet Coke) were instilled in her through company training? Or do you think she did it on her own?
2) Think about the hiring process that took place when Maria was hired by this hotel company. What qualities do you think they saw in Maria that made her a good hire?
3) What Maria did was so simple; yet, her example is not common in our business, no matter what sector you are exposed to. If you were the manager overseeing Maria’s room service department, how would you motivate the rest of the room service team to work at her level of customer service?
4) How can we, as managers, better “tune-in” to the needs of our customers … especially those like Ross Shafer in the video; checking in after midnight?
5) Briefly describe the last time you were “wowed” by a special, unexpected personal service. How did you react? Did you provide positive feedback like Ross did in the video?
Using the questions as sub-headers, re-write the questions in your own words and answer each question in “mini-essay” form; that is, with an introduction, supporting body with references where appropriate and a conclusion for each question, three to four pages, not including cover and reference pages. Make sure to provide a proper introduction and thesis for the entire assignment at the beginning of the essay; that is, provide appropriate background information and establish the purpose before writing your mini-essays.

Based on a service user statement, critically analyse a social issue, highlighting theoretical perspectives, practice implications and personal reflection.
“I have felt like a freak- you know, the name-calling- from neighbours- folk who are just ignorant of mental illness. We are now trying to break down some of the stigma, because people don’t really understand- they are scared. Mental illness is so different to a physical illness, because a physical illness you can see, with your eyes- if you’ve a broken leg or arm. But with certain types of depression- you cannot see it; no one can see it. So it’s hard.”
Sally (quoted in Cree and Davis, 2007, p. 65)

Research paper-Plastic bags should be banned in the United States
First I had to come up with a topic:
Plastic bags should be banned in the United States
Over the years, there has been a concern from environmental and research organizations on the dangers of increased use of plastic bags on the environment. The use of plastic bags are posing threats to the environment since they are harmful to plants, animals, land, and the water. Although people are aware of the negative impacts of plastic bags on the environment, efforts to reduce the use of plastic bags have not been successful over the years. Some experts predict the use of plastics contribute to more than 30% of the total environmental pollution. In the U.S, plastic waste is the leading environmental challenge that the country currently faces.
Over 8 million tons of plastic find their way into the oceans annually thereby increasing the current estimates of 150 million tons of plastics currently present in the oceans. Although governments, policymakers, and research organizations have debated on the best way to control the use of plastics in the world, there has been mixed reactions on the total ban as the best policy. Some countries, have taken the bold move of completely banning the use of plastic bags.
Next I had to develop a working thesis statement for my research paper:
Working Thesis Statement
Through the long term overuse of plastic bags we have created millions of pounds of deadly debris in our oceans, lakes, reservoirs, rivers and landfills. This increasingly destructive threat could most simply be resolved through the use of paper, reusable, biodegradable bags in all retail stores, therefore, banning all plastic bags in the United States.
What I need:
4.) Assignment: Annotated Bibliography,
-Choose 5 sources that you are considering for your research paper.
– In a Word document, for each source:
a. Write an MLA format citation followed by a paragraph annotation of the source. The annotation should be a description and evaluation of the source. You can also explain how you will use the source to support your argument in your paper.
b. Each annotation should be approximately 150-200 words. Sample (from the presentation included in the lesson–see below for example):
Waite, Linda J., Frances Kobrin Goldscheider, and Christina Witsberger. “Nonfamily Living and the Erosion of Traditional Family Orientations Among Young Adults.” American Sociological Review 51.4 (1986): 541‐554. Print. The authors, researchers at the Rand Corporation and Brown University, use data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women and Young Men to test their hypothesis that nonfamily living by young adults alters their attitudes, values, plans, and expectations, moving them away from their belief in traditional sex roles. They find their hypothesis strongly supported in young females, while the effects were fewer in studies of young males, increasing the time away from parents before marrying increased individualism, self ‐ sufficiency, and changes in attitudes about families. In contrast, an earlier study by Williams cited below shows no significant gender differences in sex role attitudes as a result of nonfamily living.

4 What do these two texts offer Americans in terms of understanding and interacting with social injustice?
Demonstrate the advanced nursing knowledge of patient assessment and management of Sepsis within the acute medical ward.
Mr King is a seventy-five-year-old male brought into the Acute Medical Ward via the rapid access clinic in University Hospital Waterford who alerted the Clinical Nurse Manager on the suspicion of sepsis and poor vital signs. The clinical nurse manager welcomed Mr. King reassured him and explained what was happening.
Mr King had Increasing shortness of breath and productive cough
Had Started five days ago, seen by GP and started on oral antibiotics two days ago. Became increasingly unwell despite antibiotics.
PMHx – COPD, T2DM, venous leg ulcer and HTN
DHx – salbutamol PRN, carbocysteine 375 mg TDS, tiotropium BD, metformin 1g BD, amlodipine 5mg OD, Ramipril 2.5mg OD. No known drug allergies.
O/E – Speaking in short sentences
Accessory muscle use
Purulent sputum
No obvious deficits in chest expansion
Global wheeze and crackles mid to base on right-hand side. Dullness on percussion to mid and lower right side.
Observations: BP 90/45 HR 130 CRT 6s SpO2 82% on air, respiratory rate 32, temperature 38.6 degrees.
This patient clearly meets the SIRS criteria being pyrexic, tachycardic and tachypnoeic. The purulent green sputum suggests the chest as a focus of infection, this is reinforced by the previous treatment and diagnosis of a lower respiratory tract infection by the patient’s GP.
Assessment of The Septic Patient
As with any critically ill patient, follow the ABCDE framework. A quick hello and how are you can give you an idea of a patient’s ABCDE state. I do this to tell me is this patient going to arrest on me in the next thirty seconds and do I have enough time to go into a more detailed assessment following handover? During my secondary assessment I can then take more time and be more thorough.thenar em
I also document my assessment in the ABCDE framework. It’s logical, allows you time to think and makes it harder for you to omit details in both examination and documentation of findings.
A – patent
B – Tachypnoeic with respiratory rate 32, SpO2 84% on air, equal chest expansion. Global wheeze and crackles mid to base on right side. Dullness on percussion to mid and lower right side.
C – BP 90/45 HR 130 CRT 6s, cold to touch.
D – Alert, blood glucose on venous blood gas 14.5 mmol/l
E – temperature 38.6 degrees
Basic investigations – blood cultures, clotting screen, full blood count, urea and electrolytes, liver function, C-reactive protein and a venous blood gas. Urinalysis and send for culture. Are they confused? Measuring of urine output is needed. Often a catheter is required for an accurate fluid balance
Use Irish references as much as you can. Use the Sepsis 6

Is there any bibliographic information about the author given? What are the author’s qualifications and authority?
Who is the intended audience?
The reviewer must present information that will allow the reader to make a value judgment about the book. Reviews must have an introductory section to establish a focal point for discussion. The second part characterizes the author’s treatment of the subject, and the final section brings the paper to a conclusion. A conclusion must deal with the essence of the author’s arguments.
Engage in formal writing that requires utilization of all stages of the writing process;
Demonstrate reading comprehension through the communication of an original synthesis;
Identifying and ascertain relationships between texts and write to inform others about the content and their own arguments; and
Improve their ability to select engaging and appropriate evidence to support their argument(s).
Students are free to agree with the author on every point, disagree with the author on every point, or any combination of the two. The important thing is that students offer insights into what contribution they believe the book makes to the literature on the subject and who, if anyone might benefit from reading it. In reviews of two or more books the emphasis is on comparison. Therefore, the introductory section establishes a focal point of comparison between the two books. The second part characterizes each author’s treatment of the “problem.” The final section brings the paper to a conclusion by way of synthesis or repudiation; in other words, the conclusion offers a suggestion of an interpretive orientation consisting of elements of both perspectives under review or an argument against one or both authors.
Questions to be considered while reading:
Is there any bibliographic information about the author given? What are the author’s qualifications and authority?
Who is the intended audience?
Define the general problem area. What does the author intend to discuss? Why?
Does the author build on past research?
What is the objective or purpose of the research? Is it clearly stated?
Does the author define any terms? Are the definitions specific and useful?
Are references given? Are the references recent, important?
What are the author’s major findings and conclusions? Have these been supported by the author’s analysis, arguments, findings or evidence? Has the author overlooked anything?
Does the author accomplish his or her objective? Does the author do what he or she has set out to do?
Does the author suggest areas for further research or discussion?
What operational definitions are used to define the variables used in the research?

Pathopharmacological Foundations for Advanced Nursing Practice
As an advanced practice nurse, it is important to diagnose, treat, and evaluate patients who have chronic disease. A nurse must understand how pathology, treatment, regimens, and psycho-social issues affect patients and the care they receive. Disease management is more than just monitoring a medication or treatment; it is evaluating the disease process from the micro to macro level. As a nurse with an advanced degree, you will be expected to assess patients and individual and population responses to chronic illness.
For this assessment, I will investigate pathopharmacological issues related to a specific disease process. I choose to investigate asthma.

Evaluate ABC’s current OCC. What advice would you provide in order to better position ABC to successfully implement this change?
ABC Company, Inc. has been in existence for 10 years. They have 50 employees, currently have one location, and they only manufacture one product: widgets. They have managed to stay in business by holding onto a small portion of the widget market, but they are far from the market leader. Over the last 5 years, their market share has stayed more or less stagnant. The president of the company is an older gentleman and mostly works from home. He makes decisions through meetings with his managers over the phone and is rarely seen at the company. Mid-level managers don’t have much contact with each other and basically focus exclusively on their individual departments. The rest of the staff members are very distrustful of management and there has recently been a lot of turnover. Outside of interoffice griping, there is rarely any company wide communication.
Recent economic developments and technological advances in the widget industry have resulted in a greater demand for widgets in emerging markets, as well as in the U.S. In order to stay competitive, ABC Company is considering expanding its operation globally. ABC has come to you, an expert on organizational change, for consulting advice. Evaluate ABC’s current OCC. What advice would you provide in order to better position ABC to successfully implement this change? Be as thorough and specific as possible, covering as many issues as you can.

In order to protect the northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) population, logging was greatly reduced in 1994, even though it was projected to cause the loss of over 30,000 jobs in the rural communities of the Pacific Northwest. After the plan was implemented, jobs were lost (although there is some debate as to whether the recovery plan was wholly responsible) but the owl population continued to decline. Based on the information provided, please answer the following questions:
In your opinion, do you think the job loss was worth the attempt to save the owl population, even though it seems to have been unsuccessful? Justify your rationale.
Suggest whether or not you would support further reduction in logging, along with its inevitable loss of jobs, in order to try to save the northern spotted owl.

What does it mean to be moral or immoral? Who decides on these definitions?
Does the definition of morality change depending on the situation?
Why do people behave the way they do?
In a 2-3 page essay (at least 4 paragraphs), you will explore the idea of morality by developing a thesis that takes a position related to morality in some way, and you will support this position with examples from at least two of the texts from this unit.
You might choose to focus on one or more specific moral transgressions (this can be one of the ones we discussed in class, or you can come up with your own) that we have read about in this unit. Or, you may also choose to develop a thesis statement by answering a more general question like the ones below.
These are examples; you are free to come up with your own topic as long as the overall topic is morality and you use specific evidence from at least two of the texts to support your ideas. You can also use real-life examples but no personal experience. Outside sources are not needed. Since this is an exemplification essay, your use of relevant examples will be crucial.
You will quote from the readings. Since you are responsible for developing a specific topic, it will be essential that you create a clear, specific thesis to explain your focus.
Here are some questions that might help you when deciding on a topic for this essay:

What does it mean to be moral or immoral? Who decides on these definitions?
Does the definition of morality change depending on the situation?
Why do people behave the way they do?
How do people justify their actions? Are these actions surprising?
