Global economy

ASSIGNMENT: Your mid-term assignment is to reflect on your life and identify an experience where you confronted one of these principles. I am seeking a short essay where you can share the details of the experience, the principle, the lessons learned, and so on. 

 

DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS:

 

1.      The student is to write a short essay about their experience with one of the 7 core principles of macro-economics provided above.  The essay is to be no less than 2 full pages and no more than 4 full pages in length.  Standard fonts and margins are to be observed.

 

2.      The contents of the essay should address the following elements:

 

a.      Description of the unique economic event or incident.  Remember, provide me sufficient color and description so I can understand how and whether you truly experienced an economic event.  For example, brief statements indicating that you received a bribe (i.e., an incentive) from your parents to attend a dreaded family function WILL NOT satisfy these requirements.

Your understanding of the selected core economic principle

.  You may quote the definition of the principle provided in the textbook (with proper attribution), but I am looking for your explanation of the principle as well.  Show me whether you understand the principle by explaining it in your terms.  Make sure you use economic terms in your writing.  While all of you are capable of sharing

a.      economic theories and opinions with me, I am really interested in your mastery of one of these core principles.

 

b.      Explain how the core principle selected applies to the event or incident.  This requires some reflection and thought.  Sometimes it requires you to de-construct the principle and event and illustrate how the principle played out and came alive in the event.

 

c.      With the advantage of hindsight and greater economic understanding, indicate what lessons you have learned about that event or incident.  In addition, if that event or incident should occur to you again, what would you do the same thing? Different? Why or why not?

 

2.      While this assignment is to be done at home, it is meant to be done ALONE.  YOUR WORK ONLY, PLEASE.  EVIDENCE OF COLLABORATION, PLAGIARISM AND OUTSIDE HELP AND DIRECTION WILL BE DISCUSSED WITH THE APPROPRIATE PARTIES AND DEALT WITH ACCORDINGLY.  Recent research indicates that even twins experience life from different perspectives and attitudes.  Thus, it is my expectation that no two essays could ever be largely the same.

After watching both videos, I would like you to answer the following questions:

1) What is the difference between sex and gender?

2) The person in the video, Veronika Simms, is Transgender and a personal friend of mine.  She was biologically born as a male, and now she lives her life as a female (identity).  What are your thoughts of Veronika and her being transgender?  Is this really considered gender dysphoria? Does being transgender automatically make you homosexual? Is there a difference between sexual orientation and gender identity?

Sampling and Collecting Quantitative and Qualitative Data

Sampling and Collecting Quantitative and Qualitative Data

For this Discussion, you will first consider sampling strategies. Then, you will turn your attention to data collection methods, including their strengths, limitations, and ethical implications. Last, you will consider measurement reliability and validity in the context of your discipline.

 

Position A: Probability sampling represents the best strategy for selecting research participants.

  • Post a restatement of your assigned position on sampling strategies.
  • Defend your position with examples and support from the scholarly literature.
  • Next, select a data collection method and briefly explain its strengths and limitations.
  • Then, identify a potential ethical issue with this method and describe a strategy to address it.
  • Last, explain the relationship between measurement reliability and measurement validity using an example from your discipline.

 

Length: 2-4 Paragraphs

APA format with scholary references

Synthesis Work Sheet

Synthesis Work Sheet

Details:

Synthesis is the act of creating something new from multiple existing entities. Synthesis of research, then, is creating a new idea from existing ideas. This assignment is designed to help you identify how themes can emerge from reading literature and how you can synthesize this information in a way that creates new knowledge. You will use your understandings of the Topic 2 readings to complete a synthesis worksheet.

General Requirements:

This assignment will be used as a pre-writing activity for the synthesis paper in Topic 5.

Locate and download “Synthesis Worksheet” from the Course Materials for this topic.

Review the articles by Baker & Pifer (2011), Gardner (2009), and Smith & Hatmaker (2014) located in the Course Materials for this topic.

This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. Review the GCU APA Style Guide for Writing located in the Student Success Center.

Directions:

Complete the Synthesis Worksheet for the articles by Baker & Pifer (2011), Gardner (2009), and Smith & Hatmaker (2014). The completed worksheet will include the following sections:

An Introduction that introduces and provides context for the topic, presents three common themes that emerged from the readings, and provides organization for the paper with a thesis statement.

A description of the evidence to support three common themes that emerged from the articles. Since this is likely your first experience with this depth of synthesis, we have provided two of the themes found in the articles. Your task is to identify a third theme and to provide evidence from each article for all three common themes.  

A conclusion where you will return to your thesis and provide evidence showing you successfully addressed your thesis statement. Discuss the connections that you made from the evidence and how each theme emerged from the central topic of doctoral identity.

Discuss whether you think children should be liable for their own intentional torts, or whether the parent or guardians should be liable

Discuss whether you think children should be liable for their own intentional torts, or whether the parent or guardians should be liable

1) Discuss whether you think children should be liable for their own intentional torts, or whether the parent or guardians should be liable. Would your argument change based on whether the injured party is a child themselves? What if the injured party is an adult?

2) some actions can be both criminal acts as well as tortious ones (e.g., battery). Should a person be subjected to both criminal liability and civil liability for the same actions? Defend your position with at least two examples taken from current events or well known lawsuits.

Disaster Recovery 5.1

Disaster Recovery 5.1

Part 1

Conduct research using the library regarding Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity (DR/BC) Plan test procedures, how to conduct them, and any risks or issues associated with testing. Discuss the following:

  • When should testing be conducted (time of day, day of week, etc.)?
  • What personnel need to be involved in testing?
  • What type of back-up systems should be used in testing (hot sites, cold sites, warm sites, cloud-based services)?
  • What fallback plans should be considered in case testing does not go well?

Part 2: Summative Discussion Board

Review and reflect on the knowledge you have gained from this course. Based on your review and reflection, write at least 3 paragraphs on the following:

  • What were the most compelling topics learned in this course?
  • How did participating in discussions help your understanding of the subject matter? Is anything still unclear that could be clarified?
  • What approaches could have yielded additional valuable information?
  • The main post should include at least 1 reference to research sources, and all sources should be cited using APA format.

PPT Shoulder Injury

PPT Shoulder Injury

Part 1. Part 1. You must create either a PowerPoint presentation discussing an injury.  This injury has come from your outline from previous assignments.

You will discuss:

What is the injury

structures involved

Mechanism of Injury (how injury occurs)

what structures are injured, both primary structures and secondary structures.. for example:  MCL injury may have meniscus injury, and probably muscle injury

and discuss the rehabilitation protocol… What must you consider in terms of safety in this program?  Does age or gender influence rehabilitation? What are the typical protocols?

What exercises will you start with and why? Are there alternative exercises if the person does not want to perform the one’s you chose due to pain?

Then just ahead to just before you suggest they are returned to activity and play. Provide information on how you would determine if they can return to activity.  What functions will you be expecting them to have?

Part 2:  On a separate document:

Create a home exercise sheet for this injury. This sheet should have 8-9 exercises

Describe the exercise, purpose of exercise, and a picture of how to perform this exercise as if you were handing it to a patient to take home with them.  Provide a spot for sets and reps for the therapist to fill in for the patient.
