A subtle form of racial discrimination in housing is “racial steering.” Racial steering occurs when real estate agents
show prospective buyers only homes in neighborhoods already dominated by that family’s race. Tenants at a large
apartment complex recently filed a lawsuit alleging racial steering. The plaintiffs claimed that potential renters
were steered to Section A, while African-American renters were steered to Section B. The accompanying table displays
the data that were presented in court to show the locations of recently rented apartments. Do you think there is
evidence of racial steering?

5. In a recent study of enterprise resource planning (ERP) system effectiveness, researchers asked companies how they
assessed the success of their ERP systems. Out of manufacturing companies surveyed, they found that used
return on investment (ROI), used reductions in inventory levels, used improved data quality, and used
on-time delivery. In a survey of service firms, used ROI, used inventory levels, used improved data
quality, and used on-time delivery. Is there evidence that the measures used to assess ERP system effectiveness
differ between service and manufacturing firms? Perform the appropriate test and state your conclusion.

Naturalistic Observation
Observations and analysis of human behavior in the social environment: Visit a selection of environmental situations (a park, playground, museum, schoolyard, fast food restaurant, mall, movie theater, supermarket, hospital emergency room, religious service) where you can observe people in the developmental phases between infancy and early childhood. Include pregnant women and family configurations (with men) in your observations.
For your paper, select one observation of an infant, and then one of the following possibilities: a toddler or young child; a parent with a child; a family configuration with children; a non-family group with children. Reflect on the following questions as you develop a field report on your observations. Answer all questions.
? What types of behaviors did you observe? Specify the developmental phases of your subjects. Which behaviors appear to be socially constructed and which innate (if any)?
? What can you observe about the behavior of people in groups?
? How does gender, culture and class influence these behaviors?
? How many different languages did you hear spoken?
? How many different ethnic groups did you see?
? What was similar and different about them?
? How did ethnicity and language appear to influence the social groups?
? How did the environment appear to influence the group, and vice-versa?
Link at least three (3) findings per observed situation to references in the literature, for a minimum total of 5-8 different references drawn from this syllabus and additional readings of your choosing using the information obtained through the library instruction session.
Using your critical thinking skills, agree or disagree with the author?s interpretation of the given situation.
? Why?
? What surprised you the most? What upset you the most?
? What was the most significant aspect of this experience?
Suggestions: This work is designed for observation only. Choose situations where you can sit comfortably and safely. Do not engage people ? just observe them. Be discrete about what you are doing. Take notes and sketches unobtrusively. Do not photograph or audio/video tape record people. Start practicing a few weeks before the paper is due.
Format: All written assignments must be typed and double-spaced, with 12 pt. font, numbered pages and one-inch margins. You must use APA style to cite and reference literature.
You should cite 5-8 references for the term paper.
Conceptualization Portion of Final Assignment:
Using theoretical concepts learned in class, analyze the observations used for your paper. Using a theoretical concept (i.e. Social Exchange Theory,Conflict Theory, Piaget’s Stages if Development, etc.) analyze and explain the behaviors you encountered during your observation. Only one theory is required, but student may draw on multiple theories to help analyze different observations.
A Note on References:
The each textbook can count as one reference. If you cite both text books, those would be two separate references. References can be drawn from reference and journal articles by doing searches such as those outlined during the in-class library information session. Reference can also be drawn from other sources to assist you in describe the neighborhood where observations were conducted, demographic data and to support findings drawn from your observations.
Two concepts relevant to the practice of nursing.
Theories are derived from conceptual models and are comprised of concepts and propositions. The only concepts that are common to all nursing theories, in some shape or form, are patient, nurse, health, and environment. These are sometimes referred to as the basic metaparadigms of the nursing domain. Identify another two concepts that are relevant to your personal practice of nursing and explain how they relate to your practice and why they are important to your practice.

Case study on death and dying.
Case study on death and dying.
Details:
The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.
The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation and decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc.
In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.
In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and answering the following questions based on the research:
How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
Finally, present and defend your own view.
Support your position by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.
