Research Design Paper

/in /by

The third thing you need to do is to discuss what data collection method you will use to research your topic, and if you are using a specific data framework method. For this third step, you need to fully discuss the following things:

a) what data collection method(s) you will use (you may mix and match methods as long as you can argue that doing so helps you answer your research question / test your hypothesis),

b) why you are using that method(s), referring to our course discussion/readings;

c) what sample you will attempt to gather, how and why; and

d) an idea of what materials you will use to gather your data (i.e. questionnaire items, interview questions, experimental stimuli, etc.

I will be looking for an idea of what you plan to do – it does not mean that you will not change your approach when you actually collect data. But this paper will be the record of what you intend to do, giving me an idea of how to help you to do it. This paper should be 500-1000 words long.

This assignment is concerned with formal elements, iconography (subject matter), and historical and cultural context. You are to write a research paper of at least three full pages of narrative text. The paper must include your own analysis of the topic using supporting information from at least three different scholarly sources, which must be books and articles in the MSU Billings Library or full-text articles available in databases (JSTOR, Expanded Academic, Academic Search Premiere, etc.) accessed through the Library’s “Get Articles” link. Do not use Wikipedia or other non-scholarly internet sources. You may reference your textbook, encyclopedias, and dictionaries, but they do not count as one of your three sources.You do not only have to use books and articles on art to research your topic. Books and articles on history, religion, and politics may be just as useful.

Topic:Choose three landscape paintings pictured in your textbook.They must be from different cultures (for example, American, Chinese, British, German, etc.).Compare and contrast the three paintings formally and in terms of iconography, placing each within their historical and cultural context.

Make sure you take into account period style (for example, French Baroque, British Romanticism, Chinese literati painting, etc.). How is the painting representative of this style? What are the historical and cultural factors that inform this style?

Also take into consideration the site being represented. Is it actual or imaginative? If actual, what is the significance of this site? What social, political and/or religious issues are raised by the painting?

You must document your sources within your text with footnotes, endnotes or parenthetical documentation. Art History uses the Chicago Manual of Style citation format; therefore, footnotes or endnotes are preferred.However, if you are familiar with MLA or APA, they are acceptable. I am primarily concerned with consistency. For assistance, consult the books on reserve in the library for this course: Look!: The Fundamentals of Art History, A Short Guide to Writing About Art, Writing About Art, and Thinking and Writing About Art History. If you click on “Citation Help” on the MSU Billings Library home page, you can also find information on the various citation styles.Also see the Library Research guide for Art at http://libguides.msubillings.edu/art

WRITE an organized, typed, double-spaced, paper with one-inch margins on all fours sides and twelve-point Times New Roman font.Your paper should have an introduction, middle and a conclusion.Include photocopies of artworks not pictured in your textbook.

You are to upload an electronic copy (Microsoft Word document), where it will be evaluated by TurnItIn for originality.

Written Assignment – Leadership Strategies

/in /by

An effective leader must possess the skills, emotional intelligence, and knowledge base to influence and convince the members of the organization to not only adopt, but to become advocates for the change that the leader seeks to implement

In order for one to develop the leadership skills that are required to affect change within the organization, one must become familiar with a variety of approaches previously utilized by successful leaders and managers in organizational transformation.

For this assignment, utilize one of Rasmussen Library’s business databases such as Business Source Complete via EBSCO or Business via ProQuest to research a business case study of an organization going through strategic change. Business databases can be found in the Search E-Resources link of the Resources tab. Learn how to search for business case studies here: http://rasmussen.libanswers.com/faq/81513.

Then research two leadership strategies that have been used to successfully drive organizational change during the past 10 years. Once you have located these strategies, write a paper analyzing the effectiveness of each strategy and relate how effective management strategy alone may well be challenged to achieve desired change. In your analysis, address the following:

  • Identify and research two leadership strategies
  • Develop a description of the leadership strategies
  • Formulate an overview of how the strategy is used and rate its effectiveness
  • Argue whether the strategy is still relevant and effective in present day organizations. Why or Why not?
  • Describe how effective management alone will fall short of achieving desired organizational change

Please identify these strategies from references found in the Rasmussen College Library.

Assignment requirements are as follows:

  1. The body of the paper should be 2-3 pages.
  2. The paper should include an APA formatted cover page and reference page.
  3. The paper should include at least 2 peer-reviewed sources, such journal articles from the Rasmussen Library.
  4. The paper should be proofread for correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Constructive Eviction and the Implied Warranty of Habitability, Business Law homework help

/in /by

  • Constructive Eviction and the Implied Warranty of Habitability

    Steve is renting a property from Billy.  One evening Steve tripped and fell down the stairs. The issue is that one of the stairs in the common area was faulty. Billy knew about the stair, but he had never got around to fixing it.  

    Steve injured his leg, so he decided to return to his room. The heater was not working (and it was in the middle of winter). Steve had told Billy about the faulty heater for months, but Billy never got around to fixing it. There is a local ordinance that requires landlords to repair heaters.  Additionally, assume that this jurisdiction includes the implied warranty of habitability. The jurisdiction recognizes constructive eviction, and it follows the majority rule of when landlords are liable for injuries.

    • What causes of action does Steve have?
    • What remedies does he have for the faulty heater?

    The requirements below must be met for your paper to be accepted and graded:  

    • Write between 500 – 750 words (approximately 2 – 3 pages) using Microsoft Word.

    Reference material (data, dates, graphs, quotes, paraphrased words, values, etc.) must be identified in the paper and listed on a reference page.Reference material (data, dates, graphs, quotes, paraphrased words, values, etc.) must come from sources such as, scholarly journals found in EBSCOhost, online newspapers such as The Wall Street Journal, government websites, etc.  Sources such as Wikis, Yahoo Answers, eHow, etc. are not acceptable. 

Writing about Gnostic myth and ritual

/in /by

After reading the chapter, find three of our core terms that you want to discuss AND compare to another tradition we’ve studied thus far. For example, you may want to talk about apotheosis in Gnostic baptism and compare it to the Upanisads. Or, you may want to talk about soteriology and compare Gnostic baptism to the Zoroastrian Yasna. Or, cosmic dualisms are ripe for comparison to any school we’ve studied thus far. The possibilities are endless!

For each of your three paragraphs, please include a short quote from Brakke (See attached file) and, if possible, a short quote or specific example from the tradition to which you will compare. Then, as usual, pose a question for further discussion.
