Discussion1:
Introduce some challenges to policy making in developing countries. If you were an analyst working for the St. Petersburg Informational and Analytical Center, explain how you would use data available to you to prepare a report for the Governor for the State Program “Combating Proliferation of Drugs.†Briefly explain what you would include in your report to detail the problem, and what the forecast results would be for each of several responses to the problem. (You do not have to use actual data from a real model for this discussion.) The idea is to focus on how models can use real data to create forecasts.
Discussion2: Strategic planning
The terms data, information, and knowledge are often used interchangeably. But as we have seen in this weeks lessons, they can be seen as three points on a continuum. What, in your opinion, comes after knowledge on this continuum? How do we get there? How do we maintain it?
use the 3 paragraph model, and keep you response short and to the point, Remember more is not always better
Final
4 Short Answers: 60 points (15 points per question): Choose 4 out of the 5 questions to answer. No MORE than 1 double spaced page per question.
Use the readings, lectures, discussions, and screenings to craft your answer. A good answer will include quotations (that are then explained and addressed by you), specific examples (from the readings and/or the media), and clear writing in your own words.
1 Essay Question: 40 Points: No MORE than 3 double spaced pages.
Using your knowledge from the readings, lectures, screenings and discussions, you will write an essay that constructs an argument by comparing two media examples from the second half of our class to answer the question:
Why is it important to remember Black liberation history?
In your answer, you will want to consider the political uses and misuses of Black liberation memory (either or both the memory of the Civil Rights Movement or more radical, revolutionary Black liberation history, such as the Black Power Movement or more radical figures, like Malcolm X or the more Radical King). You will also want to consider what is at stake in remembering or mis-remembering Black revolutionary politics for present day and future activism. You will want to refer to specific examples from the media you choose and use citations from our readings and lectures that are analyzed and addressed by you in the essay.
Because this is a short essay, you will be graded on:
Media from second half of our class are:
The Help (Tate Taylor, 2011)
The Butler (Lee Daniels, 2013)
Malcolm X: The Real Story (CBS, 1992)

Final Paper
The major assessment in ECON625 will be a 6 to 10 page paper that analyzes the potential for introducing a new business in a location and industry of your choice. The paper will highlight opportunities, incentives, and challenges for the business using economic theory, concepts, and language that we have explored throughout this course. Regular pre-assignments will guide you through this process and will be due throughout the course. The pre-assignments are worth a total of 100 points as indicated below. The final paper is due the last week of class and is worth 200 points in addition to the pre-assignments. Assignment details and due dates for pre-assignments and for the final paper are shown below. Submit the final paper under the “Assignments†link on the BB menu at the left.

Week 7 Final Paper: Future Business Potential. Point Value: 200 Points
Identify a city or a neighborhood within a large city (eg: “Corktownâ€) that you believe has potential for future business growth. Then select a product or service that you believe could be successfully introduced as a new business in this city.
Investigate the business environment of the city as well as the market structure of the business and the potential market demand for the product. Prepare a recommendation stating whether there is justification for opening a new business of this type in this city.
You must cover each of the four main categories listed on the next page, covering at least two distinct points within each category. Some possible points are listed under each category. You are not limited to the points listed under each category, but you must cover each category.
Your final paper will be 6 to 10 pages in length (not counting title page or references). The paper must be in APA format with sources clearly identified using in-text citations and a final reference page. Include an introduction and a summary. Summarize and paraphrase information from outside sources, being sure to cite those sources. There will be a substantial reduction of points if word-for-word quotations from outside sources total more than 5% of the paper. Include your own interpretation and analysis based on theory, concepts, and language that we have explored throughout the course.
