Students,

I was disappointed in the overall grades for the assignments this week. Several of you did not use APA to format your papers nor use the example provided at the beginning of the course. The students that did use those resources received high grades because they were able to meet the criteria of the assignment.

For week 4, make sure you use APA for your papers. Address the strengths and weaknesses of each question. The example provided demonstrates how the paper should be set up with headings.

Read the comments on your papers. If you did not format your paper at all I only wrote on the paper not in APA.

Make sure the references you are using are peer reviewed and within 5 years unless it is a classic. The most common peer reviewed resources are books and journals. Websites are not peer reviewed, especially websites. Slideshare is not a peer reviewed source. Stay with books and journals for your references.

Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart, English Lit Portfolio Project help

/in /by

Research Based on Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart

The Portfolio Project is designed to require you to expand your understanding of Things Fall Apart by combining knowledge and application of content with your own interpretation and judgment. For the Portfolio Project, you will write a research paper about Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart, supplementing your own interpretation with information from three to five other sources. Your interpretation of this novel should reflect an international perspective. Information about planning your research paper and conducting your research can be found in the lecture material for Module 5. The portfolio project is due in Week 8.

Essay Formatting Requirements:

  • 5-7 pages.
  • Minimum of three sources (excluding the novel) – must be credible, authored sources; anonymous websites or sites like Wikipedia are not acceptable as one of your three main sources.
  • Double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font.
  • Title Page: for an explanation of how to formulate a title page in APA, see The Purdue OWL(scroll down to “Title Page”), or use the APA template provided in the CSU-Global Library. (Titled “Does Your Paper Look Like This?”)
  • Insert page numbers in the top right-hand corner.
  • Include a Reference Page.
  • Use CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements for correct APA formatting in the paper and on the reference page.
  • Your final paper will be graded not only based on content but also based upon the quality of your writing, syntax, and grammar. Please be sure to pay special attention to the quality of your written work. It is highly recommended that you closely proofread your assignment prior to submission. In addition, you are again expected to provide support for your arguments based upon both the required and recommended readings for the course and your research, as well as to incorporate any relevant points culled from the discussion boards. Review the Portfolio Rubric, located in Course Information.
  • Finally, you will take the particular research question that you are developing as the thesis of your Portfolio Project and contextualize it in such a way as to convey an international or multicultural understanding of the novel. For example, if you are developing a cultural analysis of the novel, you would need to answer, as a part of your research thesis, how one culture develops in direct competition against the emergence of another foreign culture. Or, if you are developing a feminist analysis, you would need to answer, as a part of your research question, how one culture’s treatment of women changes when confronted by another culture’s differing attitude toward women. Or, if you were doing a direct compare/contrast analysis, you would need to directly compare specific aspects of one culture against another culture.
  • In other words, any critical perspective from which you frame your thesis and overall paper needs to convey a sharper international or multicultural understanding of the novel and should be reflected in your outline and reference list.

POST 1:

How Do I Respond to This?

In this scenario, you are part of an online class business class which is studying diversity in the workplace and diversity training. The prompt asked about the purpose of diversity initiatives/trainings, and how they can benefit business. A student posted what he experienced at his workplace diversity training not too long ago. A second student replied to his post, but with a very different “take” on the topic.

Here is a copy of the second post:

You got lucky. My job makes us attend these stupid trainings for diversity every year, and they are a complete waste of time. I mean, I am not going to be mean to lazy people who don’t do their work because they come from cultures where people don’t work hard. I know it’s not their fault that they were raised that way, and I guess they do ok for who they are and all, but that doesn’t mean I have to like picking up their slack. But that’s the world today, we have to accept everyone and everything.

Your job is to respond to the second post and maintain professionalism while you do. Your response should defuse the situation (rather than make it worse).

POST 2:

In our lives, we can find many tasks that can be completed using an Excel spreadsheet. Discuss an application for an Excel sheet in your personal life or at your work or expected career. Also, discuss at least two Excel functions you find helpful ( which haven’t been posted already). Perform research on those two functions of your choice and tell us what they do, how they work and an example of how you would use them at home, work or an activity.

POST 3:

William Penn is credited with saying, “I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again.” This statement is similar to the idea behind “paying it forward,” or performing a random act of kindness for a stranger, who in turn would do another random act of kindness for another stranger, and so on. This is a philosophy popularized recently by Starbucks and the media.

Directions:

Please respond to all the following items in your initial post by Sunday.

POST 4:

Consideration

Consideration is one mechanism by which the legal system determines what contracts the courts will enforce.

  • Do you think the legal system should enforce more promises?
  • Why or why not?

POST 5:

Relationship of Height and Weight

  • Using the given Height and Weight data set, follow the steps in the weekly video or on pages 584-585 of the textbook for performing a regression analysis using Excel to analyze the Height and Weight Data set (assume height is the input variable x and weight is the output variable y).
  • Once you have performed the analysis in Excel, state the correct simple linear regression equation and use the regression equation to predict the weight (in pounds) of a person who is 65 inches tall and the weight (in pounds) of a person who is 100 inches tall.
  • Why might the regression equation you have found not be a good predication of the weight of someone who is 100 inches tall?

Post 6:

Regulation of Business

  • Explain the rationale for government regulations on businesses in your own words.
  • Identify a federal or state regulation that you support or oppose.
  • Explain your support or opposition to the regulation.

Laws to consider include HIPAA, HITECH, the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003, the Balanced Budget Act of 1999, the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) to name a few. There are likely 100 different pieces of legislation that you could choose.

Complete all of the columns and rows on the template.

Health care leaders need to recognize and understand major legislation that affects the operation of health care organizations. All health care legislation also affects patients. Thus, the need to consider what a piece of legislation is about and how that law affects health care providers, the community, and the patients served.

This assignment is worth 150 points. This mid term assignment is due by Sunday.

4-1 Final Project Milestone Two: Strategy Tripod Part Two and Three

/in /by

Overview: In Milestone One, you established the rules of the game set by industry conditions during your exploration of the industry leg of the strategy tripod

framework. Milestone Two incorporates the two remaining pillars of the tripod and introduces the management foundations of international growth strategy.

You will apply this knowledge during your continued analysis of your firm’s present and future strategy to complete your final project. This milestone is due in

Module Four.

Prompt: Your final project entails developing a full strategic analysis of a publicly held multinational enterprise (MNE). For Milestone Two, you will submit your

draft of the next portion of your strategic analysis, covering strategy tripod pillars two and three. While researching for your assignment, be sure to keep your

references recent (within the last three years).

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

III. Strategy Tripod Pillar Two: Internal Resources, Capabilities, and Relationships (Strengths and Weaknesses): Evaluate the strategic importance of

internal firm resources, capabilities, and relationships on global competitiveness (strengths and weaknesses). Consider the how an MNE’s internal

competencies inform the success of its international market, resource, and relationship-related activities.

A. Analyze the value, rarity, imitability, and organizational embeddedness (VRIO) of the firm’s resources, relationships, and capabilities (i.e.,

competencies) in performing the industry’s value-chain functions.

B. How well do the firm’s competencies address the industry’s dynamics (e.g., key success factors, key drivers of change)? Do any of the existing

competencies along the value chain reach the core or distinctive levels of competitiveness over the MNE’s global rivals?

C. What competency (or competencies) should the MNE enhance to garner greater global competitiveness within the industry? How should the

firm acquire, outsource, or internally develop them?

IV. Strategy Tripod Pillar Three: Institutional and Cultural Conditions (Opportunities and Threats): Evaluate the strategic importance of institutions on

global competitiveness (opportunities and threats). Consider how institutions and cultures inform the success of your MNE’s international market,

resource, and relationship-related activities.

A. How do trends in formal institutions, such as governance and legal systems or domestic, foreign, and global regulations and trade policy, inform

the MNE’s global strategy policy and tactics?

B. Contrast U.S. national culture with the cultural traits, mind-sets, and norms of a country where the MNE has significant business activities or

interest. How do the differences inform management’s strategic policy and tactics in the various functional areas of business, such as operations,

research and development, human resources, marketing and sales, and so on?

C. Are conditions within the institutional environment reducing or increasing management’s uncertainty about the MNE’s competitiveness in

global markets? Which is currently a greater concern for your MNE—informal or formal institutional factors? Justify your rationale. V. Business-Level Strategy: Entrepreneurial Strategic Policy, Decision Making, and Internationalization Tactics: Analyze the strategic importance of global

competitiveness in regard to the five entrepreneurial Critical Elements Exemplary (100%) Proficient (90%) Needs Improvement (70%) Not Evident (0%) Value
