Due Week 10 and worth 235 points

This assignment uses the information you have gathered for your weekly World View Chart Assignments.

Choose ONE (1) category (origin of all things, nature of god, view of human nature, view of good and evil, etc.) from the chart to focus on for this assignment. Consider how the selected category relates to all of the religions covered and to your own social or work experiences.

Write a two (2) page paper in which you:

1.     Select ONE (1) category from the completed World View Chart. Provide a rationale for choosing this category. What is compelling about this category? Why is it important in the study of religion?

2.     Describe the selected content and explain the significance of the selected category across all of the religions studied. Show in what ways the category is significant for each religion.

3.     Give an example of how you have noticed this category in your life, town or country. What impact does this category have in the everyday lives of people who practice religion in your area? (You do not have to give examples of all the religions in your area, just one you have noticed besides any you practice). For example, in Cincinnati, Ohio we have Hindu, Greek Orthodox, Catholic festivals in the summer. So if my category were “Festivals and Celebrations” I could use those events as my example.

4.     Use at least three (3) quality resources as references for the assignment and document your sources using APA Style for in-text citations and references. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

5.     Write clearly and coherently using correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, and mechanics.

Your assignment must:

·       Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

·       Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

·       Analyze what is meant by religion.

·       Analyze the similarities and differences in the primary beliefs held by major religious traditions and the cultures in which these religions evolved.

·       Describe the varieties of religious experience and practice in a wide range of cultures.

·       Recognize how daily life within various religions and current affairs are influenced by religion.

·       Develop written pieces that demonstrate an analysis of a topic relevant to the course.

·       Use technology and information resources to research issues in religion.

·       Write clearly and concisely about world religions using proper writing mechanics.

Week 4 – Discussion 3

Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated. 

Peer   Assessment Forum 2

 The purpose of this forum is for you to prepare assessment questions based upon the sources that you have used in this course. Formulating these questions will allow you to understand the material at a higher level and prepare you for the Final Research Project.  
 

Develop a minimum of two potential assessment questions over the course topics and learning outcomes in Weeks Three and Four.  You can choose to develop multiple choice questions, short answer questions, or essay questions.  
 

By Day 7, respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts. First, answer the questions they asked (if responding to an essay question, please phrase your answer as a thesis statement). Next, evaluate their questions, and offer constructive feedback. Did the questions work? Why or why not? Briefly explain your reasoning. If the questions did not work, offer suggestions on how they could have been improved. Please note: Your instructor will be observing this forum but not interacting within it.

As the company prepares to meet demand and capacity requirements for its planned future growth, you have been asked to review the current forecasting strategy and help implement a new strategic plan for forecasting demand. The new forecasting plan ties directly to the overall strategic planning methodology established by the company. The company historically has used a time series method. The forecasting methods under consideration are the following:  Qualitative: human judgment, usually best used when      little data is available Simulation: the use of computer models or judgment to      imitate customer behavior Causal: used when there is a direct tie between demand      and an environmental factor, such as cold weather Time series: the use of historical data to predict      future needs 

Using course materials and other research, complete the following: Identify which forecasting technique or multiple      techniques should be used in the future for the      company’s strategy. Are there other techniques available that are not      listed above? Explain the technique you identify, and give an example      of how it is used in the manufacturing, retail, and health care      industries. Detail if 1 of the 4 techniques listed above      should NOT be used and why. Evaluate the significance of forecasting error for the      technique or techniques you have selected. What is the impact of error on      your chosen technique? 

Please submit your assignment.
