Ashford 5: – Week 4 – Discussion 2

Hands-On E-Learning Tool

  

With the wide use of software- and   Web-based tools, instructional designers must often integrate screen captures   into their presentations. There are different ways developers can capture a   screen:

Press the PrtSc keyboard key        on a Windows-based PC. Windows will capture the current screen contents,        copying it to the clipboard, from which a user can paste the contents        into a Word document, PowerPoint presentation, or other application.  Press the Alt+PrtSc keyboard        combination on a Windows-based PC. Windows will capture the current        window contents, copying it to the clipboard, from which a user can        paste the contents into a Word document, PowerPoint presentation, or        other application.  Use a software tool such as Snagit (trial version        available). 

If you are new to screen captures,   watch the tutorial Capturing Windows Screens.   Then, capture a screen and cut and paste the screen into a Word or PowerPoint   document.
 

  Describe your screen-capture experiences here. Discuss how you might   integrate screen captures into your future work. Respond to at least two of   your classmates’ postings.

  

Ashford 2: – Week 1 – Discussion 1

Moral, Legal, and Religious Perspectives on Social Justice

  

   In Chapter 1 of your textbook, justice is analyzed from three perspectives,   each with its own set of relevant concepts. The text includes three case   studies for consideration from each perspective. Select one (only one) of   these case studies as the focus of your initial post in this discussion. Then   analyze the selected case study from the justice perspective which   accompanies it and answer the following questions. If you select “Case Study 1.1        – Jacob Little and Walmart,” analyze it from the perspective of justice        as a moral concept. Your analysis must address the following questions:  Did Walmart offer Jacob a         just wage? Why or why not? Was the alderman’s decision         to let Walmart operate in the city just? Why or why not? If you were the alderman,         what would you do to more fully promote justice in the situation? Why? If you select “Case Study 1.2        – Just Desserts?,” analyze it from the perspective of justice as a legal        concept.  Was the court’s sentence for         Mr. Allen just? Why or why not? Was the court’s sentence for         Mr. Brown just? Why or why not? If you were the judge         presiding over both of these trials, what would you do to more fully         promote justice in them? Why? If you select “Case Study 1.3        – Honor the Sabbath or Keep Your Job,” analyze it from the perspective        of justice as a religious concept.  Did Chief Gerst treat         Corporal Brown justly? Why or why not? Did Corporal Brown act         justly after his agreement with Chief Gerst? Why or why not? If you were the Chief of         TSU’s Police department, what would you do to more fully promote         justice in the situation? Why?

Moral, Legal, and Religious Perspectives on Social Justiceh. Support your claims   with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources,   and properly cite any references.
