Psychology was not a well-established field until the late 1880s when major figures in Germany and the United States began influencing each other's work, transforming the field until industrial-organizational (I/O) psychology emerged as a subdiscipline around 1910. This document asks how the social, historical, and economic contexts of the time influenced these founding figures' theories and the critical issues facing organizations then. It provides instructions to research this and post a brief description of two influential I/O psychology founders, explaining how historical context shaped their work and the issues of their era, and to also describe and explain a critical modern organizational issue and the current contextual influences on it.

Education

Psychology was not a well-recognized discipline until the late
1880s, when major founding figures began to emerge in
Germany and the United States. Most notably, individuals from
Leipzig, Germany and Harvard University in the United States
began to influence each other’s work. This transformed the field
of psychology until I/O psychology became a subdiscipline in
approximately 1910 (Landy, 1997). How did the context (e.g.,
social, historical, and/or economic) of the times influence these
founding figures’ theoretical contributions to the field of I/O
psychology, as well as the critical issues that organizations
faced during that time?
To prepare:
Review this week’s Learning Resources.
Research critical issues in I/O psychology using the Walden
Library and other peer-reviewed, scholarly sources.
Post by Day 4
a brief description of the two founding figures of I/O
psychology that you selected. Explain the influence of historical
context (e.g., social, historical, and/or economic) on their major
theoretical contributions, as well as the influence of critical I/O
issues of their time period. Then, describe a critical I/O issue
facing organizations today and explain why it is critical.
Finally, explain the current contextual influences (e.g., social,
historical, and/or economic) contributing to the critical
organizational issue.

Review of International Studies (2007), 33, 3–24 Copyright � British International Studies Association doi:10.1017/S0260210507007371 Introduction Still critical after all these years? The past, present and future of Critical Theory in International Relations NICHOLAS RENGGER AND BEN THIRKELL-WHITE* Twenty-five years ago, theoretical reflection on International Relations (IR) was dominated by three broad discourses. In the United States the behavioural revolution of the 1950s and 1960s had helped to create a field that was heavily influenced by various assumptions allegedly derived from the natural sciences. Of course, variety existed within the behaviourist camp. Some preferred the heavily quantitative approach that had become especially influential in the 1960s, while others were exploring the burgeoning literature of rational and public choice, derived from the game theoretic approaches pioneered at the RAND corporation. Perhaps the most influential theoretical voice of the late 1970s, Kenneth Waltz, chose neither; instead he developed his Theory of International Politics around an austere conception of parsi- mony and systems derived from his reading in contemporary philosophy of science.1 These positivist methods were adopted not just in the United States but also in Europe, Asia and the UK. But in Britain a second, older approach, more influenced by history, law and by philosophy was still widely admired. The ‘classical approach’ to international theory had yet to formally emerge into the ‘English School’ but many of its texts had been written and it was certainly a force to be reckoned with.2 * The authors would like to thank all the contributors to this special issue, including our two referees. We would also like to thank Kate Schick for comments on drafts and broader discussion of the subject matter. 1 Discussions of the development and character of so-called ‘positivist’ IR are something of a drug on the market. Many of them, of course, treat IR and political science as virtually interchangeable. For discussions of the rise of ‘positivist’ political science, see: Bernard Crick, The American Science of Politics (Berkeley and Los Angeles, CA: University of California Press, 1960). Klaus Knorr and James Rosenau (eds.), Contending Approaches to International Politics (Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1969) highlight the emergence of what might be termed ‘classical’ behaviouralist approaches. The growing diversity of the field can be seen in K. J. Holsti, The Dividing Discipline (London; Allen and Unwin, 1985) and the debates between positivism and its critics traced ably in the introduction to Steve Smith, Ken Booth and Marysia Zalewski (eds.), International Theory; Positivism, and Beyond (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1996). Waltz’s move from a traditional to a much more scientific mode of theory is found, of course, in Theory of International Politics (Reading, MA: Addison Wesley, 1979). 2 The exhaustive (an.

DISCUSSION BROAD ASSIGNMEN T : DUE WEDNESDAY Throughout this course you will be asked to use your sociological imagination to view situations from a variety of perspectives. As Mills suggested in the above quote, this might require you to narrow your focus on the life of a homeless individual or to broaden your scope and look at a multinational corporation and its effect on the global economy. Then step back even further to consider how these two perspectives might influence the development of humanity as a whole. In this week's Discussion, we will start by looking at your own values and recognizing the personal experiences and cultural biases that might have affected them. Understanding how your values are shaped and affected can give you clues as to how your own culture and society forms views on similar issues. To prepare for this Discussion: Review pages 5 - 9 and 19 - 21 on social imagination in your course textbook. Consider how "common sense" knowledge affects your everyday decisions. Reflect on how the sociological imagination challenges certain core values and basic beliefs in one's own society and culture. With these thoughts in mind: a value of your own that you think studying sociology may challenge. Explain why you chose that value and how you would use your social imagination to bring awareness to other possible viewpoints of the value. RESOURCES FOR BOTH ASSIGNMENTS : Course Text: Schaefer, R. T. (2012). Sociology: A brief introduction (Laureate Education, Inc., custom ed.). New York, NY: McGraw-Hill. Chapter 1, pp. 2 - 2 What Is Sociology? Sociology is the systematic, scientific study of the patterns and processes of social life, touching on all of its major dimensions. 1. RELIGION 2. POLITICIAL 3. ECONOMIC 4. FAMILIAL 5, CRIMINAL 6. CULTURAL Because the scope of sociology is extremely broad, this list names only a few of its major dimensions. How Did the Study of Sociology Begin? Before the Industrial Revolution, people interpreted human social interactions and human society from the point of view of philosophy and theology . However, the Industrial Revolution disrupted the old patterns of human relationships and the routines of everyday life. For example, instead of farming in the countryside, many people settled in cities so they could work in factories. Because the old way of looking at social life didn’t work anymore, Auguste Comte (1798–1857) coined the name “sociology.” The Founder of Sociology: Auguste Comte Motivated by the political upheaval of the French Revolution as well as the societal changes created by the Industrial Revolution, Comte wrote six volumes about the social and scientific achievements of the world in which he lived. His insistence on systematic observation, experimentation, and historical analysis—called positivism —created the intellectual foundation for the science of sociology. While you don’t have time to write six volumes, you probably do know more about sociology than y.

Published on this SlideShare account are six reading commentaries that I wrote for a seminar titled “Class, Culture, and Power,” taught by Professor William Hoynes in the Sociology Department of Vassar College during the autumn 2008 term. This seminar met every Monday afternoon during which time we discussed, among other related topics, the assigned readings for the week. Our regular writing assignment for this seminar was to write commentaries on those readings. I generally wrote my commentaries by hand on loose-leaf paper and, over the years since then, not all of them have survived. Fortunately, over a year ago, I recovered the ones that I did find among my assorted papers from university. Realizing that they were still readable and of at least some merit, I retyped and edited these commentaries and repurposed them as “concept pieces.” The changes I made are mostly “cosmetic”—generally changes in wording and sentence structure along with deletions of anything I found extraneous. Source references have also been added where possible. Looking back, nine years on, although these commentaries and topics they covered were certainly worth writing, I can better appreciate their meaning and significance now as the aftermath of the 2007-2008 financial crisis drags on, ever-widening socioeconomic inequality comes to the fore as a major issue of our time (although strictly speaking, it was always an issue—lately, the problem has become significant enough so as to warrant mainstream media and political attention), and as I work at my present day job as a member of the legal staff for an immigration law office. Most of the clients that my office takes on tend to work in the “service” industries. Furthermore, the electoral victory of Donald Trump by way of right-wing populist and neo-fascist politics provides more reasons for reflection on the still-important issues of class, culture, and power. Of course, for leftists, “left-liberals,” social democrats, and assorted “progressives,” none of this is anything new. But for the corporate “New” Democrats in the United States as well as Tony Blair’s “New” Labour in the United Kingdom, it is very new indeed. As for these commentaries, or concept pieces, I will try to build on the concepts and topics discussed in them for future writing on political, social, and economic matters. Expanded versions of these commentaries may also follow. Stephen Cheng November 5, 2017

write an 8-10 page paper citing at least 10 scholarly sources. In this assignment, I will be looking for: A strong thesis. The various historical arguments, and evidence that you understand them thoroughly. Good use and incorporation of evidence to make your point. Clear cohesive, argumentative writing. Creativity and Critical Thought in your argument. That is, you should use your readings to come up with an argument that is not obvious or derived solely from the readings, but combines the readings in a new way. 2) ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY - I expect you to use a mix of scholarly sources including monographs, articles in edited volumes, and journal articles from peer edited scholarly journals (like those on JSTOR); you will need to take advantage of hard copies from the library and online resources. Ultimately, you will summarize this reading in an eight-item annotated bibliography. Begin the bibliography with a paragraph detailing how you will approach your research question; that is, what is the broader question, what is the aspect of the question that will be your focus, and what do you think your thesis might be. Then include a detailed annotation for each of eight pieces that you have read to this point, including the way that you see that piece fitting into your overall argument. For more on writing an annotated bibliography and examples, see the handout on blackboard. In this assignment, each annotation should include Bibliographic information, in Chicago Style A good description of the reading, including the reading’s topic , argument , evidence . In order to help you understand the piece in the context of the project you are working on, it should also indicate how the piece relates to others that you have read for this topic. Does the author argue against or support another scholar’s conclusions? How do the works differ? Your evaluation of the work. Do you think the author presents good evidence for the argument? Do you agree with his or her conclusions? How might this work be useful to your project (or not)? In addition, I will be looking at the whole assignment for the following: The paragraph telling me how you will approach your argument. This should be in line with the sources you have presented. Eight Scholarly Secondary Sources. Variety in terms of journals, books, and chapters in edited volume. At least some newer scholarship (pieces written after 2000). Sources that are appropriate in terms of time and place . If you are working on Adolf Hitler, a book called Adolf Hitler and the New Germany would be great. One called Dictators through History is not relevant. 3) PAPER - Finally, write an 8-10 page paper citing at least 10 scholarly sources. In this assignment, I will be looking for: A strong thesis. The various historical arguments , and evidence that you understand them thoroughly. A good use and incorporation of evidence to make your point. Clear cohesive, argumen ...

Unit 1: Module 1 - M1 Assignment 3 Assignment 3: Views on Diversity Pablo believes that diversity is the most important issue in our culture, and that it is greatly underemphasized. On the other hand, Ralph rarely thinks of diversity, except when it is mentioned in the workplace. Monica is sensitized to multicultural issues because her parents are immigrants who still struggle with discrimination after being here for 20 years. To obtain a cross-section of what people think about diversity, conduct five-minute interviews with three individuals you don't know well, and assess their views on diversity. You have been provided an Informed Consent document for the respondents to sign along with verbally consenting to participate in this assignment.

You may already be working in the industry and studying OTHM on a part-time basis or perhaps an individual who wishes to ENTER the industry or upgrade skills through study and work placement. Some Issues to Consider Historically, Great Britain played a major role in developing the tourism infrastructure used today, starting with the first tour operator and leading to the development of railway networks and travel by ocean liner – enabling visitors to travel both nationally and internationally. Modern tourism is a major source of FOREX to many developing economies and is often the main industry in an economy. An increase in disposable income and the growth of mass air, coach and rail travel has also had a major impact (sometimes negative as well as positive) on a region or economy. Tourism and hospitality is the world’s largest EMPLOYER and an understanding of the industry will enable you to progress further with the other specialist areas of the diploma . Researching the Tourism and Hospitality The assignment has been designed to encourage you to research the industry, considering the main factors driving the development and demand within the industry. Your assignment should also allow you to gain a clear understanding of the supply chain within the tourism and hospitality industry.

Understanding the Value of Qualitative Research An important part of both analyzing other’s research approaches and reflecting on your own includes understanding the positive and negative aspects of varied forms of social research and how they can influence a researcher’s stance and tone. While quantitative data can provide a general overview of the impacts of public policy and systems which manage society, qualitative data can provide specific and important information regarding the causes of this impact, such as the how, why, and who. Therefore, qualitative research can provide beneficial information to aid public policy in regards to social problems. This is especially important to know when public policy and systems create negative impacts, such as profiling, inequality, limited access, and social exclusion. It is also important to be able to recognize the stance or informed viewpoint of the researcher reporting on this information. One of the more immersive forms of social research methods available is one of the qualitative methods: ethnography. Ethnography allows a researcher to experience the impacts through living amongst the citizens who have to engage with public policy and its systems in their daily lives. The most intriguing aspects of this type of research is how the researcher maintains an ethical and neutral stance during and after the process of research and how the experience can impact their stance or underlying tone. In this assignment, you will present the benefits of ethnographical research in terms of informing public policy, as well as understanding the researcher’s role in performing and reporting on ethnographic research. You will do this through your own research of immersive ethnographical approaches (including the course text), and also through analyzing Dr. Alice Goffman’s work on inner city people of color in Philadelphia. You will be provided with reporting and reviews of her work to help fuel your own analysis of Dr. Goffman’s approach. This will help you become better at discerning what useful research is in order to appropriately inform decision-making in society. In your paper, you must address the following: Explain the researcher’s role in qualitative research. Discuss the unique issues that researchers should be concerned about in regards to their role in research, and explain how this is specifically a challenge in ethnographical research. Discuss specific actions researchers can take to ensure they retain their ethical and neutral stance in performing qualitative research and reporting their qualitative research results. Regarding Alice Goffman’s recent ethnographical work in inner-city Philadelphia, and based on what you know from the text and your own research on ethnographic immersion, determine whether or not Goffman maintained an ethical and neutral stance, and provide justification of the approach Goffman chose to take. Based on what you have been able to ascertain from Goffman’s work, discuss th.

UMUC CMIT 265 Fundamentals of Networking Hello there! I have am lost. My rough draft is due Sunday, December 13. I'm not looking for a stellar proposal to be written but help on what Computer Components to use and why and where they should be placed (see diagram) and why . Same thing for the IP/subnetting, and Network devices. I really need to see the setup of the devices and wiring schematics. If you have time to write a design proposal by Saturday, that would be a bonus. Here are the assignment details. There are two attachments: one includes what you see below plus a diagram of the building design and the template we are to use for the paper. ASSIGNMENT SCENARIO: You have been hired as part of the networking team at UMUC. After completing orientation and training in your first week, your manager calls you into a meeting to discuss your first project. The university has recently leased a building in Adelphi, Maryland. The building will house some offices, classrooms, a library, and computer labs. Security is very important for UMUC, as the university must protect students’ and employees’ data, as well as any intellectual property that UMUC has on its servers and computers. As a result, IT management would like to take the time to review some proposals on how best to move forward. As a network engineer, you have been asked to prepare a network proposal on how to set up a secure network infrastructure in this new building to support university operations. After speaking to your manager, you are excited about the project, but you realize you will have a busy schedule. As you write your proposal, you will also have to prepare for the Network+ Certification exam. One of the conditions of your employment at this company is that you obtain this certification within 60 days of being hired. You will have to manage your time wisely, because you will have to take a practice certification test just as you are completing your final project. To get started, follow the steps below. OVERVIEW You will provide detailed network design proposal. Your task is to design the network for this new building with the following criteria: · Student-accessed computers should be on separate network from the staff-accessed computers. Computers for public use should be on a separate network. · There must be a minimum of 40 Mbps Internet connection, with a backup line capable of at least 20Mbps. Cable, DSL, or FIOS should not be used for primary Internet service. · The network should use physical cable, not wireless. But do provide wireless access in the Student Lobby area (second-floor hallway). Set the maximum simultaneous wireless users to 254. · The network has been assigned the 10.11.12.0/23 network address for all computers and devices Your proposal should have three major sections: 1. Physical Network Design 2. Network Addressing 3. Network Services Design To learn how you will be assessed on this assignment, please take a.
