ARGUMENT ESSAY EXPLAINED:

Worth 15% of your final grade.

Connection to Student Learning Outcomes: This assignment allows you to:

1. demonstrate writing as a recursive process;

2. demonstrate writing and inquiry in an argumentative context using investigative strategies toreflect, analyze, explain, and persuade in a research paper format;

4. locate, evaluate, and incorporate relevant sources with proper documentation;

5. compose a research paper incorporating rhetorically effective and conventional use of language.

The Purpose of Argument:

The argument essay is a writing assignment that forces you to look at two sides of a “touchy” subject, objectively and without bias. You must choose a controversial issue and locate arguments from all sides, evaluating all perspectives fairly. You will analyze those arguments and judge which side has the best arguments, explaining why they are better than opposing arguments. Once you have decided, you have to take a stand – on one side or the other – and persuade your readers that your opinion is rational, logical, and built on a solid foundation of evidence. You will incorporatesource material and document it competently.

The minimum length is 3 pages, not including the Works Cited page(s).

The maximum length is 5 pages, not including the Works Cited page(s). If you go over 5 pages, you will lose 1 point per word beginning on page 6. This does not include the Works Cited page(s).

The Works Cited page begins on a page of its own after the last page of your paper. Do not create it as a separate document. It is a part of every research paper that appears at the end. It is not counted in the minimum or maximum page lengths for this assignment.

In the Links section, you will find examples of student-generated argument papers with Works Cited pages at the end.

Civil Rights in US Companies

/in /by

You are a business consultant to the National Minority Supplier Development Council. An international petroleum products distribution company, based in the U.S., consults with you on cultural diversity matters. It faces some complex choices at its overseas locations. While equal opportunity, affirmative action, and individual civil rights are the law of the land in the U.S., this frequently is not the case in other countries. Therefore when moral and legal issues run counter to host-country customs, problems are bound to arise.

Prepare an executive summary, briefly discussing the following specific topics:

  • Should U.S. civil rights laws apply to U.S. companies’ foreign operations? Express your opinion on this issue.
  • Describe a cultural diversity policy for the firm expanding overseas operations. Highlight any differences that might arise in some Middle Eastern countries where a distribution center is currently being built.
  • Explain the value of understanding the importance of, and complying with, the other country’s legal system while operating in a foreign country.
  • Americans tend to believe that the U.S. legal system is better than that of most other countries. Discuss the ramifications of this belief in an overseas, culturally diverse operation.

Create a two-page executive summary in Word. Use at least three resources to justify your responses. Apply current APA standards for writing style to your work. Include a title page and reference page(s) in addition to the summary.

Goldilocks
and the Three Assessment Scenarios

If
you have not already done so, watch the Goldilocks
and the Three Assessment Scenariosvideo.
Choose either the “too warm” or “too cool”
scenario and compare how the counselor in the “just right”
scenario manages the assessment process differently. Applying
professional ethics and unit studies as a guide, describe appropriate
administration, interpretation, and communication of results in
psychological testing.

Goldilocks
and the Three Assessment Scenarios

Counselor
Is Too Warm

Counselor
(C): Hi. My name is Dr. Nelson. How are you today?

Client
(CL): Ummm. Fine.

C:
We are going to be doing some assessments together. I hope that will
be OK. This assessment is very important to help us get to know you
better, and I want to help you make a great impression!

Cl:
Uhh. OK.

C:
Great! Let us get started C: Ok. Here is the first test you’ll be
completing. If you have any questions, just let me know. I will be
right here.

Cl:
Thanks. I think I am good here. C: Oh good.

Cl:
(stops writing) I will be fine if you have other work to do…

C:
Oh it is fine. It is important that I am here to observe. C: You may
want to take another look at #4 there…

Cl:
Gee. Thanks.

C:
No problem. I am here to help! C: Oh great. I will score this real
quick and give you the results. C: Ok. You did just fine. This is a
brief assessment of your intelligence and you are a very intelligent
person!

Cl:
Really? I cannot wait to tell that to my dad. He never thought much
of me in the brains’ department.

C:
That is terrible! Everyone has their own type of intelligence and
yours is just …less conventional. Cl: Less conventional? What the
heck is that supposed to mean?

C:
Oh..You are your own kind of smart.

Cl:
What? I have no idea what you are saying. Can you just give me a
straight answer, instead of this “less conventional” garbage?

Counselor
Is Too Cold

C:
Hi. I am Dr. Nelson. We will be doing some tests today. It is
important that you do your best because the results are very
important to your future.

Cl:
Oh, OK.

C:
Let us get started. Here. (Slides the paper to the client). Follow
the directions at the top. I will be back in a few. (walks out)

C:
Are you done yet?

Cl.
Yeah, I just finished the last question. ..Here. (Slides papers back)

C:
OK. Hang on. I will score this real quick. (jots notes)

C:
Well, it seems you’ve scored below average. Do not take this wrong,
but I do not think this is going to look good for you.

Cl:
Say what?! What does that supposed to mean?

C:
It is just that most folks do better. That is all.

Cl:
Yeah, I get what below average means! What did you mean that it would
not look good?

C:
Oh. Well, this is a brief intelligence test and it means that you’re
just not that smart. It is OK. I mean, it is not THAT bad.

Counselor
Is Just Right

C:
Hello. I am Dr. Nelson. (

Cl
: Hi. I am ___. (Shakes hand)

C:
Did you have any trouble finding our office?

Cl:
No. Your directions were just fine.

C:
Oh good.

Cl:
What is this all for anyway?

C:
Your employer has a contract with my agency to complete assessments
as part of the Employee Assistance Program. Are you familiar with how
the program works?

Cl:
I think so. Based on the tests I take here today, you are going to
decide if I can return to work.

C:
Well, not exactly. I will be writing a report based upon the work we
do here today, but it is not up to me whether you return to work. You
have the right to review the report and ask questions about the
results.

Cl:
Oh. That makes more sense. I guess my supervisor would have to decide
whether I am ready.

C:
That is right. My report is just one piece of information to help
determine if your recovery is far enough along to make it safe for
you to return to a job where safety is very important.

C:
We are going to be doing several different assessments today. This
first is a brief intelligence test. The purpose is to get a general
idea of how your problem-solving skills are progressing.

Cl:
Yeah. My doctor said that would take some time to get better.

C:
The directions are here at the top. It is important that you only
mark one answer for each item. Do you have any questions?

Cl:
Seems pretty straight forward. Is it timed?

C:
No. You may take as much time as you need to complete it.

90
minutes later….

C:
OK. We are all done. Thank you.

Cl:
When do I find out the results?

C:
I was able to score a couple of the assessments while you were
completing others, but I do not have all the results at this point. I
will be able to put a report together for you later this week and we
can discuss your score at that time.

C:
Can you tell me anything?

C:
Yes. Compared to others who do your type of work, you seem to still
be struggling a little. I remember that you said your doctor
predicted that your full recovery would take some time.

Cl:
Yeah. I know. I am just so anxious to get back to work. I wonder if I
did this too soon. Maybe I should have waited another week…

C:
Some of these tests can be repeated. That may be a recommendation for
me to consider. A reassessment might be in your interest depending
upon the results.

Cl:
Oh? Can retry some right now? I know I would do better!

C:
I am sorry. The tests are only valid if they are repeated far enough
apart. Some would need to be substituted as they cannot be given
again so soon.

Cl:
I guess that makes sense. So, I should just wait for the results?

C:
I understand how important these results are for you. Why do we not
set an appointment up for later this week to review the results
together? At that point, I will share my recommendations with you,
but you certainly have input into what information is shared with
your employer.

Cl.
I would like that.

Assignment 2

IS
PATH WARM

Consider
the case example of Mary, a client who discusses suicidal ideation
with a counselor, which is presented in Chapter 8 of the text on
pages 156–157 of a client who discusses suicidal ideation with a
counselor.

  1. Discuss
    which aspects of “Psychological First Aid: How You Can
    Support Well-Being in Disaster Victims” from the Center for the
    Study of Traumatic Stress. Which aspects would you use to calm Mary,
    establish rapport, and obtain more information?
  2. Apply
    the mnemonic IS
    PATH WARM    ,
    recommended by SAMHSA, to this scenario. How would you assess each
    of the criteria for the case of Mary? What other assessment tool(s)
    could be used to help assess Mary’s level of suicidal ideation?
    Present a rationale for using (or not using) that tool with Mary.

Assignment 3

Assessment
of Cognitive Abilities

The
assessment of cognitive abilities draws a range of opinions in terms
of the validity of assessing “intelligence.” Begin by
defining what is assessed. Choose one side of the argument (that
intelligence can be accurately measured or that it cannot) and
present and review the evidence that supports your position. Focus on
professional literature to establish your position. While your
personal experiences with academic assessment may influence your
opinion, it is your growing professional knowledge that will help you
establish a sound and well informed understanding of the relevant
issues.

Chapter 4 Exercise 2

2. As the head of a thrift bank you will only have so
much money on hand. It is very important to make sure that it is possible to
have access to the funds that you need. When something like interest rates
being low happens, it is important to make sure that there is a process of
allowing supply to be there. What that means is that when there is a demand for
money sometimes there is a need to make sure that the supply is available to be
able to keep up with the demand. What that means is that there needs to be a
borrowing from a central bank. It would be the necessary to make sure that
there was going to be the help of a central bank to meet the needs. That means
that the owner of the bank would need to reach out to ensure that there was
going to be enough money.

Position Paper: Social Media in the Hiring Process

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to develop your research and critical thinking skills while analyzing a current topic in Human Resource Management. This assignment is designed to keep you updated on leading edge topics as they are happening in our field. You will also develop your ability to integrate ideas from the academic literature and critically evaluate those from the popular press to form a coherent argument in favor for or against a topic.

Description of Assignment

You will be assigned several articles to read on a current trend in HRM: Social Media in the Hiring Process. Some of the articles come from the academic literature, and some come from the popular press. You are also expected to conduct your own literature review and research the topic beyond the assigned readings. You should cite this research where appropriate in your document, using APA style. After reading the articles and conducting your own literature review, you should write a position paper outlining whether you think it is appropriate or not to use social media information in the hiring process. You need to support your position with appropriate facts and references.

Discussion Topics

The following questions are things you should consider as you write your paper. Not all questions necessarily need to be addressed, but a majority of them should be incorporated as you construct the main arguments in your paper. Feel free to examine other ideas that pertain to the topic as well.

  • First of all, for the purposes of this paper, “social media” includes any information that is available about a person on the internet. This may include (but is not limited to): Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and Google searches.
  • What kind of information can you find from the various social media platforms? How would this affect a Hiring Manager’s (or Recruiter’s) decision about a candidate?
  • When you are considering whether it is appropriate to use social media information, consider the steps of the hiring process. Is it appropriate to use this information at the beginning of the process, before inviting the candidate for an interview, only after an interview, only at the end of the hiring process (prior to making an offer), etc. Consider the ramifications of viewing one’s social media profile at these different steps in the process (e.g., in terms of bias).
  • Is the information we gather from social media reliable and valid in terms of being a predictor of job performance?
    • On a related note, is the information presented by social media outlets representative of the candidate? Try Google searching yourself and do a social media search on your own name (Facebook and LinkedIn profiles)…what did you find?
  • What are the legal ramifications of using social media information in the hiring process? Is there a chance of adverse impact?
  • Consider the practical side of this issue. How many Hiring Managers or Recruiters use this information? What would they say about the use of social media information in the hiring process? How has this information helped (or how could it help) them?

Details

  • Length. Your paper should be 3 – 5 pages double spaced, not including title page or references.
  • Style and Formatting. You should utilize APA style for the paper. Use headings where relevant, and have a references page that lists the works that you cited during your paper in APA style. For more information on APA style, please consult Purdue’s OWL website at: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/.
  • Grading – Your paper should articulate a clear argument in favor of, or against, the use of social media information in the hiring process. Excellent papers will state a clear policy that is in accordance with best HRM practices using supportive facts and references that are outside of, but include, the assigned readings. It is important that the legal, as well as practical, issues of using social media information are addressed in the paper. Excellent papers will also have a clear structure, and will have organized information in a logical way to illustrate their argument clearly. The paper is worth 100 points, or 10% of the student’s final grade in the class.
