In-Anne-Bradstreet-s-poem-The-Prologue-

/in /by

Please answer each of the following discussion questions. Each response should be about 250 words or more. If you have any questions, please told me directly.

1.In Anne Bradstreet’s poem, “The Prologue,” she writes:

I am obnoxious to each carping tongue

Who says my hand a needle fits

A poet’s pen all scorn I should thus wrong

For such despite they cast on female wits:

If what I do prove well, it won’t advance,

They’ll say it’s stol’n, or else it was by chance.

In the context of this poem and the other poems we read, what exactly do you think Bradstreet means here? (10 points)

In the context of her religious situation, what does this poem say about her audience?

2.Find a specific passage in Mary Rowlandson’s A Narrative of the Captivity and Restorationthat exemplifies her attitude toward her captives and her religious faith. Then, write it into this exam and explain why it exemplifies her attitude. (10 points)

3.In this course thus far, we have looked at how the Puritans put a definitive stamp on the moral, religious, and intellectual character of this nation. In that context, how does Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” either explain those Puritan origins or how does it demonstrate a rebellion against those origins.

4.In the context of our readings thus far, how is Hester Prynne a uniquely American heroine? Please remember to be very specific and very textual in your response.

Title: Six Sigma Yellow Belt Training

Purpose of Assignment

The purpose of this assignment is for students to receive Six Sigma Yellow Belt Training – Executing DMAIC (Define, Measure Analyze, Improve, Control) Six Sigma Quality Improvement (define and measure) projects.

Assignment Steps

Resources: Microsoft® PowerPoint®

Select a business where one of your team members works or one with which you are familiar to make sure you are able to gather data, and for which you can identify processes to improve.

Execute the define phase of the Six Sigma DMAIC project including the following:

  • Identify customers and their priorities.
  • Identify a project suitable for Six Sigma efforts based on:
    • Business objectives.
    • Customer needs and feedback. For example, if the team chooses a fast food chain, they could observe and record defects with preparation and delivery of the food, cleaning of the restaurant inside and out, including the rest rooms
    • Productivity of the operation and quality of service measured by such metrics as: wait times per each customer from the time the order is made until the customer is handed their food, customers served per hour per total number of employees, number of errors made in products served vs ordered, friendliness of the staff, and cleanliness of the operation; including inside the restaurant, outside, in the rest rooms, tables, floors, waste baskets, etc.
  • Identify and develop the problem statement.
  • Identify CTQs (critical-to-quality characteristics) the customer considers to have the most impact on quality.

Execute the measure phase of the Six Sigma DMAIC project including the following:

  • Determine the metrics to measure the process and how it is performing.
  • Identify the key internal processes influencing CTQs and measure the defects currently generated relative to those processes.

Develop a 12- to 15-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation, including detailed speaker notes, highlighting the summary in which you describe your work on the two phases of the Six Sigma process improvement project.

Format your assignment as if you would be giving a presentation to senior management.

FORO III: Inclusión – exclusión social

Se busca el pensamiento crítico y la reflexión del estudiante sobre la sociología y sus implicaciones.

Recuerda que el foro es como la discusion que se hace en el salón de la clase

Objetivos del Foro:

1. Definir e identificar la inclusión y exclusión social

2. Analizar ambos conceptos en la propia experiencia

3. Valorar la importancia de que todos vivimos en sociedad

Unos de los temas más candentes en nuestra sociedad es el de la inclusión o exclusión de las personas, grupos, culturas, etc., en una sociedad. Damos por sentado que todos los seres humanos somos iguales, sin embargo, se toman actitudes que no están conformes a ese principio.

Pasos a seguir:

Definir en tus propias palabras lo que significa inclusión social y exclusión social. Se busca tu propia definición, tu visión, lo que entiendes por el concepto (no se trata tanto de buscar y copiar información). Para esta primera parte del foro no hay respuestas correctas o incorrectas.
