Do some research on cyberloafing.

Cyberloafing has become a significant issue for companies today. Cyberloafing costs companies millions of dollars each year. As a result, some companies have chosen to use various technologies to either prevent or catch employees that are spending their time online or on their phones doing non-work-related activities such as shopping, playing games, or socializing. Do some research on cyberloafing. What are the costs to companies? How much time do employees spend doing non-work-related activities? What are some of the tools employers are using? What are the laws in your state related to the use of these tools? Do you think the use of these tools is ethical? Why or why not?

  • Presentation

Follow Progress Report Sample on blackboard

Progress Report has 6 Separate Parts

Student Commentary, Report Plan (Outline), APA Reference List for all 6 sources used in the report, 2 different Sources – 2 Summaries and 2 Evaluations.

Summary

You need to do a 100 word summary of one of the sources you are using for your Final Report. Follow the method that you used in the Mid Term

Example:

APA

Postel, S. (2010, June, 24).Water : Adapting to a New Normal.*International Journal of Environmental and Sustainable **Development . Retrieved from https://www.inderscience*.com/2010/Vol9/water-adap…

. Leave indentation in lines below the Author’s surname

**Put a comma after the Surname and use full stops to separate the rest of the individual parts** (S,I.D.A.P.P)

***underline the Publication

Summary

In her article ‘Water: Adapting to a New Normal’, Postel outlines three main reasons why in future water will become a much more concerning issue than the current energy crisis. First, while water is essential for human life, not all countries have equal access to it. This imbalance is due to both natural and man-made causes. Second, unlike renewable energy, water cannot be replaced and current solutions to produce more water take too much time and cost too much. Finally, the negative impact of climate change will most likely result in much more disastrous water-based outcomes, such as flooding and glaciers melting. (102 words)

Source Evaluation

You need to do a 100 word evaluation of one of the sources you are using for your Final Report. Follow the method that you used in the Mid Term for evaluating the Article and the Author.

It is understood that your ‘mapping to your report plan/outline’ may include less words than in the Mid Term. You may only need this source for one or two sections or your report. However you must still follow the method used in the Mid Term.

Example:

This article is quite useful for the report, although not ideal. Information in the first paragraph can be used in Part I A and C. The second paragraph can be used for Part II B and II E respectively, while the third paragraph could be useful for III B 2. The article is relatively old and some of the data may not be up-to-date. It is published in a highly ranked journal and the language is for an educated reader with an interest in environmental issues. The author is an expert in her field and has many academic publications. However, she may be biased as she has been a member of the Green Party for the last 27 years. (119 words)

How to Choose your Sources (Reading Texts)

Try to choose sources that are no more than 1 or 2 pages, otherwise you may face difficulty in summarizing your information. Remember that a good summary includes an overview sentence at the start, so it would not be suitable to use longer sources. Try to use sources that you understand fully, then it will be easier for you to do your summary of the Main Ideas contained in the text you are using.

Make sure you choose a source that has either Introduction, Body, Conclusion (Opinion-Text type) or Introduction/Body (Fact-Text type).

It is not possible to do a summary of only part of a source or from selected pages. Choose a source that is similar to the MTE, a Reading of 400-500 words which you can fit into models of ‘summary’ taught during the course.

You may need to use google search to get more information about the author if it is from a website and not an academic article.

If you need help choosing your sources for the Progress Report, I am available to help you in the Office Hours.

The presentation should be 6 slides and talk for 6 minutes ( please include notes on what I should say ).

Schwachman sued for unpaid rent and moved for summary judgment. What ruling would you make on the summary judgment motion?

Here is the case question:

Philip Schwachman owned a commercial building and leased space to Davis Radio Corp. for use as a retail store. In the same building, Schwachman leased other retail space to Pampered Pet, a dog grooming shop. Davis Radio complained repeatedly to Schwachman that foul odors from Pampered Pet entered its store and drove away customers and workers. Davis abandoned the premises, leaving many months’ rent unpaid. Schwachman sued for unpaid rent and moved for summary judgment. What ruling would you make on the summary judgment motion?

Write a 2-3 page paper (excluding the reference section and title page) discussing a particular strain of animal where a particular behavior has been selected for. You can select almost any behavior and find selection studies that have been done in mice and rats

Natural selection and evolution play a large role in behaviors of animals, including humans. The Owens et al. study assigned for reading this week introduces a strain of mice that have been selected (scientifically, rather than naturally) for behavioral sensitivity to alcohol. These selected strains of mice are an example of evolution through selection . You can also use the long-sleep and short-sleep mice that have been presented in the article this week. Be sure to discuss not only the selection process and impact but also other associated changes resulting from the initial selection process. As you will find if you search the long-sleep and short-sleep mice there will be a significant number of changes that occur at the neurochemical and behavioral level as a result of the initial selection study.

its my important essay homework

First, your topic. Your topic can be anything, provided it meets the following conditions:

  1. Your subject matter admits of objectively correct answers, e.g., math, science, morality, etc.
  2. The central claim of your essay is controversial. By ‘controversial’ I mean non-obvious. Can reasonable people disagree about it? If you can’t imagine what would count as a reason on the other side, it is best to pick a different thesis statement.
  3. You can find evidence for your view and against your view. (This relates to (b), but is stronger in that you’ll actually find an article where the opinion disagrees with you.)

Second, you will write a short argumentative essay, structured in the way described in Module 12. You will argue for a thesis statement and organize your essay in accordance with the argument type most suitable to the claim you pick.

Essays must be at least 3 pages, or about 900 words. You will write in complete sentences of standard written English, using appropriate spelling and punctuation. You will have a Works Cited page. You must use at least two sources, one which supports your view and one which disagrees with your view. Your sources must be reputable, i.e., they must be legitimate sources of journalism or scholarship. No blogs, twitter feeds, wikipedia entries, etc. Feel free to read whatever you want for ideas, but they cannot be cited, quoted or paraphrased in your paper. You must include at least one relevant quote from each of your sources.

Font: 12″

Spacing: double

Margins: 1″

Style: MLA, APA, Chicago are all acceptable (ask me if you have questions)

Grading: I will use the general rubric for homework. An A on this assignment will mean excellent work. I will carefully read each essay. Make it a good one.

You may brainstorm together in the discussion forum on ideas and formatting/organization, but you will write original work. Make sure you do the writing on your own. Subminssions will be analyzed using SafeAssign.

Remember, you’re trying to support a claim. Write clearly and succinctly. Write as if you’re trying to convince a peer. Avoid unnecessary jargon.

For this assignment, you must save your submission as either an Adobe file (.pdf) or Word file (.doc/.docx). Any other format is not accepted. Additionally, you must attach a file to the assignment in Blackboard. Do not write in the “Write Submission” blank or in the “Comment” field. Ask me in advance of the day before the deadline if you have questions. I’m happy to read drafts in advance. Just stop by my office.

Do not type your submissions in the “comment” box. Click “Write Submission” and type it there, or attach a Word or Adobe (.doc/.docx, .pdf) file only.
