Researched Autobiography Purpose: To become familiar with Library sources to help tell the story of your life. Outline: Introduction: Introduce your autobiography with a personal story, a meaningful quotation, or a significant statistic. Thesis: For a narrative essay, the thesis is different than in making an argument. In this case, you need to answer the question “What is this autobiography about, and why is it important to me/a person close to me/my community?” Remember, you’ve chosen either to write about some aspect of your own life, the lives of some of your interesting ancestors, or the life of your community. Body: Tell the story, incorporating facts you’ve learned from your research. Use the facts to support the main story you have to tell, not to tell it for you. Follow MLA style for this paper. Conclusion: So what? Why does this story matter to you, your family, or your community? Reflect on this. Whether you’re writing about self, family or community, how does this have a bearing on who you are today? Works Cited: Sources listed alphabetically by author’s last name. ENTREPRENEURIAL FINANCE: Midterm 1) Entrepreneurs who establish and go on to create new ventures must classify types of financing that are in sync with the development stages that the eventually grow through in its life cycle. While exploring an opportunity phase of a new plan a firm does not experience significant operating costs, but during further stages of venture development, financing is crucial. During the research and development phase, the firm will need major levels of investment as R&D for innovation of new products, this can be very expensive. In this stage, bootstrap financing techniques may prove productive. An interesting example of this type of financing involves the entrepreneur himself/herself having to put up his/her own resources and funds (also known as skin in the game). Furthermore, the entrepreneur may receive funds from their respective families and friends. During the Start- up stage of a new endeavor, significant efforts are aimed towards initiating a marketing strategy and launching production of the company’s offering. Even though at this stage the company is ready to launch and is experiencing its first revenues, is not profitable. As a result, outside investors (angels, venture capitalists) are required to help support the firm’s operating costs and expenses. An angel investment would serve as they are generally in smaller quantities and can also be presented in accordance with milestones which are established and agreed upon by investors as well as the entrepreneur. During the early-growth stage of the new venture, the business plan has proved successful so far having launched successfully. The firm must now expand its operations by recruiting new employees and developing a marketing plan. As a result, a source of financing in this round could be forthcoming private equity investors and ...

There is a sample paper attached and the 3 other papers that were already written. This paper combines all of the papers into 1 document.  Assess the global microeconomic environment for determining the driving factors that affect business financial decisions  Develop financial models that project the impact of different business scenarios on financial performance and business planning  Assess decision alternatives by using time value of money (TVM) and other appropriate financial metrics  Evaluate the potential impact of internal and external qualitative factors on business activities for supporting strategic financial decisions  Weigh internal and external funding alternatives for carrying out investment decisions  Construct persuasive, evidence-based arguments that incorporate legal and ethical behavior and sound financial analysis for soliciting external business funding Prompt Imagine you are a manager working at a publicly traded company. (You will select a company from the list below.) You have been tasked with preparing an investment proposal for a large bank loan to finance a major expansion into another country. Your funding request will include both narrative text and financial models designed to clearly explain and justify the investment proposal, how it will be financed, and its likely impact on the company. As support, you will show the proposal’s most likely financial implications and the consolidated financial projection with and without the project. You should also consider risks—including global microeconomic factors outside the company that may affect the investment’s success in the targeted country—and describe alternative financial scenarios should sales exceed or underperform your assumptions. Your funding request should be well organized, clear, concise, and free of distracting errors. Because business executives seldom have perfect or complete information, you should base your proposal on data from authoritative sources when possible and make reasonable assumptions where information is not available. As in real life, however, you must clearly specify your assumptions. To begin, choose one of the following publicly traded companies. Once you have chosen your company, you will determine the investment opportunity for which you are seeking funding as well as the country into which your company will be expanding: Nordstrom, Inc. into South Africa Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Executive Summary: Briefly summarize the key points of your proposal, giving the loan committee the most essential information while convincing them to read further. Remember this is the first, and sometimes the only, section a selection committee will read in an initial screening. II. Investment Project: Use this section to describe the investment for which you are seeking funding, its costs, and time frame. Specifically, you should: A. Describe the investment project.

Organizational design is as much an art as it is a science. The process of creating a system in which people can work together to achieve common goals is highly complex and there is no one way to do it right. In this article, we will explain what organizational design is, what drives organizational design, how to design an organization, and how an effective design can be measured in terms of organizational effectiveness.

Making use of a 250-word proposal and 6 slide PowerPoint, you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of Course Goals 1, 2, and 3 by: •Accurately and effectively communicate ideas, information, arguments, and messages to present material in a historical context. •Investigate and evaluate historical information from global, social, and ethical perspectives to guide decision making. •Applying historical precedent to contemporary roles, responsibilities, and relationships in order to advance the goals of a community or organization. You will briefly identify and propose a solution for a problem for a community or organization. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the need or viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials. Instructions: Briefly identify a problem for a community or organization, and propose a solution. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials. Feel free to dream. The sky is the limit. Imagine that you could actually get the Department of Transportation to fund a light rail project to enable dog owners to get home to walk their dogs at lunch time in Los Angeles. This is absurd, of course, but it is fine to dream, so long as the problem is real and your solution would do actual good. In a 250 word summary, identify a problem for a community or organization and propose a project that would either solve that problem or increase the well being of its members. Propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the required readings. You may always write beyond the minimum guideline. Your proposal must have a thesis statement. Including additional relevant and substantive content beyond the minimum word count will help your grade. For historical background, if you would like to include it, you may consult any of the course materials, including the required readings and classroom discussion posts (by you, me, or your peers). Cite everything you use, and cite abundantly. PowerPoint: Your PowerPoint of at least six slides will allow you to illustrate your proposal, providing supporting imagery. Do not fret about the PowerPoint! Remember this is history. The people we study did not have PowerPoint. · This assignment consists of two (2) sections: a draft of your business plan and an income statement containing your business plan financials (i.e. Week 7 Discussion "The Financials").

P A P E R S December 2008 � Project Management Journal � DOI: 10.1002/pmj 5 Why Do Projects Fail? Project failure rates are certainly cause for concern, but consider that more and more organizations are adopting a project-based model of organization, called PBO, and it is not surprising to find that addressing failures and learning from them has become increasingly important (Eden, Ackermann, & Williams, 2005; Gray & Larson, 2006; Hyvari, 2006; Robertson & Williams, 2006; Thiry & Deguire, 2007). Failures occur despite the fact that we have significantly improved the process of planning, executing, and controlling projects. Two contributions would include the Project Management Institute’s (PMI’s) A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) (2004) and the literature on critical success factors (CSFs) (Cooke-Davies, 2002; Fortune & White, 2006; Hyvari, 2006; Pinto & Slevin, 1987; Sutterfield, Friday-Stroud, & Shivers-Blackwell, 2006). To help us understand how projects fail, it may be useful to classify the approaches represented by the PMBOK® Guide, Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), Earned Value Management (EVM), Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM), and CSFs as the Rational Expectation view of project management. They assume that project leaders follow a rational and consistent approach to project management and strive to achieve specific organizational goals (Bazerman, 1994; Beach & Connolly, 2005). It is a view that emphasizes what “should” be done. Argyris (1999) referred to this as the “espoused” theory of individuals and organizations. There is, however, another view, and it focuses on the way in which individuals within an organization actually behave and make decisions. Borrowing from the work of Simon (1955) and Tversky and Kahneman (1974, 1981), it can be classified as the “behavioral” view of project management. It emphasizes what individuals and groups “actually” do and how managers make decisions involving values and risk preferences (Bazerman, 1994). Argyris (1999) called this the “theory-in-practice.” This article focuses on the behavioral view of project management and how an understanding of systematic biases—those common to the human decision-making process—can prove useful in diagnosing project failure. By studying these systematic biases, we can learn how decision makers respond to ambiguity, complexity, and uncertainty, as well as how their own particu- lar psychological processes influence project decision making (Schwenk, 1984). From this behavioral view we can learn more about why management approves an overly ambitious scope, why communications between teams is limited, why a manager might ignore signs that the project is going badly, or why a manager discourages the participation of a wider constituency in the project management process. The article begins with a framework for analyzing project outcomes, introduces the systematic biases commonly associated with d.

Paper Instructions Paper 1 is your first attempt at an argumentative essay. It is exactly that, an attempt. You have already familiarized your self with our secondary source, the Yawp. In this paper, you will also analyze at least 2 primary sources and combine these elements to form one cohesive essay. This paper, like all of the remaining papers, requires that you interpret primary source evidence in a historical context, drawing from the assigned course readings as your secondary source. · Your paper must be 900-1200 words. · Times 12 pt font DOUBLE SPACED 1" margins · approx. 3-4 pages NOT including bibliography · Chicago-style footnote citations · Chicago-style Bibliography on separate page · Review for errors of spelling and grammar—this is a formal written report! I recommend using the advanced spelling and grammar check functions in your word processor of choice PROMPT How and why do the authors of the two primary sources differ or relate to each other in their views of African American political participation and voting in the 1880s? Furthermore, if so, what does this reveal about American society and politics in the 1880s? Both the authors of the Report of the Select Committee and Philip Bruce believed that the future of American democracy depended on whether or not African Americans participated in the political process. Their agreement ended there. What does the contrast between these two perspectives reveal about America in the 1880s? Note that this question does not ask you to evaluate which of the two documents you agree with, nor does it ask you to evaluate whether either document is reliable or biased. Both documents are reliable sources of evidence about what their authors thought at the time, and both authors have biases and underlying assumptions. Your task is to explain how these two contrasting perspectives— with two very different sets of underlying assumptions—emerged from the same historical context in the 1870s and 1880s. HISTORY PAPER ORGANIZATION Your paper must include an introduction, several distinctbody paragraphs, and a conclusion. Your introduction should not begin with an overly broad, general statement, but instead should introduce the specific time, place, and topic you are writing about. Do not assume that your reader knows anything about the history you are describing. Your introduction provides necessary context for the reader that informs your paper of how the issue that you will discuss in your thesis came to be. Good historical introductions do not need catchy hooks or buzzwords. You should really be introducing the reader to the historical causes of your thesis. Also, please be mindful that for this class, you should not be using footnotes in the introduction, as you have nothing to prove until you have revealed your thesis. The last sentence or sentences of you introduction must be your thesis. Your thesis must directly answer the prompt and also provide groupings of evidence that will previe.

PAPER EXPECTATIONS Follow the instructions. Make your ideas concise. Use as few words as you can to make your statements. This will allow you more room to develop your great ideas! Avoid repetition and redundancy of both ideas and words. This is the issue that I usually subtract the most points for, so take care. For example, when you edit your papers, make sure that you don’t say “Cool Herc is widely accepted as the originator of hip hop”, and then two sentences later, “As Cool Herc is the originator of hip hop…”. See how these two are the same idea? If the reader already has the information, repeating it just takes up space. Another thing to avoid is using the same word multiple times in quick succession. For example: “I found it exciting to listen to the this music. Eri B. has an exciting tone to his voice. When I hear how he flows when he strings words together, I feel excited.” See how ‘excitement’ occurs three times in three sentences? Here’s another more subtle example: “He used the turntable as a way to switch songs seamlessly, using the scratch method to cover up the different beats that were used in each song.” In this example, the word ‘use’ occurs three times in the same sentence! Because it’s a less emotional word, it might be harder to catch, but it’s just as problematic. I like to see ‘I’ statements. I find that turning the focus on yourself (especially when we are dealing with sensitive issues and incorporating personal experience, as I encourage) is a great way to avoid generalizing groups and ideas. If your statement is clearly from your perspective, then I as a reader can empathize with your position. If you use lots of ‘we as a generalized group of people act and feel this specific way’, it makes me wonder what research you’ve done, what data points you have, and how many people you have interviewed in order to have that knowledge. Going off of the previous expectation: BE SPECIFIC! If you do make a generalized statement about a situation, back it up with details. Show the research. Reference or quote the authors who initially made the observations and put their work into context. If you tell me that Cool Herc is largely agreed to be the originator of hip hop, tell me why and give examples. For example, something with detail and context would be: “Although Jamaican soundsystem culture is at the roots of hip hop, Cool Herc was the first to create tracks sourced from James Brown, using the funkier, harder beats that we’ve come to associate with hip hop today.” See how this gives specific details and context on either end of the statement that Cool Herc was the first person to make hip hop? Make sure you include proper internal references, and construct your bibliography following MLA format . In your paper, I like to see at least (Author, Date of Publication). For example: “Cool Herc is widely agreed to be the originator of hip hop(Babin 2020).” This tells me you got the information from the .

Select a digital ethical issue for your research that is caused by the existing or emerging technology. Following is a link to some suggested topical ideas you may want to consider as a candidate for this assignment. Be sure to keep in mind that the technology aspects of this assignment are different from those of Paper A (Application of decision making frameworks to IT-related ethical issues) or Paper B, which dealt with aspects of ethical issues and a subsequent organizational policy. Recommended Source: https://www.scu.edu/ethics/ethics-resources/ethics-articles/ The above link will help you to find articles on ethics in many fields and disciplines , please remember that the emphasis on this paper is on digital technology and the ethical issue(s) with its use Topic Title – Begin with a topic title that describes what you will research. Explain the reason for your topic selection briefly in a paragraph of at least 150 words . In addition, please determine three critically important questions you would like to address regarding your topic, in your individual research paper. Include a written description (100 words) for each question that includes why that question is critically important. The objective in developing and posing these questions is to stage your research and guide your preparation of the final Research Paper , so that one or more ethical principles are applied and explained as a result of your research. This process helps you establish a thesis for your research . Lastly, provide at least three proposed reference sources, at least two of which must be from the UMGC library database (or an equivalent academic database) , which you plan to use to address (i.e., research) the three questions.

Paper B: a matrix mapping of a key IT-related organizational (or personal) ethical issue concerning privacy and organizational policy designed to correct the ethical issue. The first step of this assignment is an opportunity to analyze a key IT-related organizational (or personal, if you are not in the job force) ethical issue, related to privacy, subject to relevant laws, regulations, and policies . Both of the following sites provide sources, and an excellent backdrop for issues relating to privacy protection and the law. See EPIC Privacy Issues at: http://epic.org/privacy/ See List on left and/or: EFF Privacy at https://www.eff.org/issues/privacy [see list below in center on this page]. This includes sub-topics discussing information privacy, privacy laws, applications and court rulings (case law is usually an extension of the basic law based on the facts from specific cases and real-world court decisions), and key privacy and anonymity issues. While the sites provide many interesting topics, be sure to focus on our class IT topics. .

They represent a key concurrency model supported by modern com- puters, programming languages, and operating systems. Many general-purpose parallel architectures in use today—such as symmetric multiprocessors—are direct hardware realizations of the thread abstraction. Some applications can use threads very effectively— for example, so-called embarrassingly parallel applications that essentially spawn multiple independent processes such as build tools (PVM gmake) or Web servers. Given these applications’ independence, programming is relatively easy and the abstraction being used is more like processes than threads. Where such applications do share data, they do so through database abstractions, which manage concurrency through such mechanisms as transactions. However, client-side applications are not so simple. Threads are not the only possibility for concurrent programming. In scientific computing, where performance requirements have long demanded concurrent programming, data-parallel language extensions and message-passing libraries—such as PVM, MPI, and OpenMP—dominate over threads for concurrent programming. Computer architectures intended for scientific computing often differ significantly from so-called general-purpose architectures. They commonly support vectors and streams in hardware, for example. However, even in this domain, concurrent programs remain tedious to write. C and Fortran dominate, despite a long history of much better data-parallel languages. For concurrent programming to become mainstream, we must discard threads as a programming model. Nondeterminism should be judiciously and carefully introduced where needed, and it should be explicit in programs. Edward A. Lee University of California, Berkeley C oncurrent programming is difficult, 1 yet many technologists predict the end of Moore’s law will be answered with increasingly parallel computer architectures—multicore or chip multiprocessors (CMPs).2 If we hope to ac.

Paper #4 Prompt Due Date April 17 Rough Draft (Optional) Due April 10 This paper requires you to reference and cite BOTH “Reading Lolita in Tehran” by Azar Nafasi and “The Naked Citadel” by Susan Faludi in a well thought-out analysis. Azar Nafasi describes the life in the Islamic Republic after the revolution and the newfound laws which arose as a result of it. She explains how the totalitarian regime has oppressed women and limited them in their everyday lives and activities driving them to hide their true identities under the required black scarves and dresses. Susan Faludi describes the Citadel as a “living museum”, whose main attempt is to preserve the same ideals and traditions as when the school was first founded and shape the boys that attend the school into men. Consider the following quote: “Our world in that living room with its window framing my beloved Elburz Mountains became our sanctuary, our self-contained universe, mocking the reality of black-scarved, timid faces in the city that sprawled below” (Nafasi 419). Both Nafasi and Faludi are exploring group behavior and identity in their works, but how does the Citadel boys’ and Tehran women’s behavior change depending on who they are around and where they are at the moment? Are their true identities suppressed at any given time and how? What does the word sanctuary mean for both the Citadel and the women in Iran? The Citadel and Nafisi’s living room seem to offer different ideas of the word sanctuary. How does Faludi understand the way the Citadel presents itself as a ‘sanctuary’ from a libertine and effeminized world? Similarly, how do the weekly meetings in the author’s living room serve as a sanctuary for the women in the literature group and why do they find the need to expose their true selves and all their colors in this sacred space? Could the Citadel be considered functioning as a totalitarian regime? If so, how are the Citadel’s “laws” similar to the laws of the Islamic Republic after the revolution regarding their behavior towards women? You can also consider more broadly how space- open space, isolated space, can be a tool of both oppression as well as resistance. Provide a well thought-out analysis of BOTH texts and include quotes to support your argument. Consider whether the two authors would agree with each others’ writing and main idea, if not, what would they disagree on?

Americans are now told from birth that they are special, that they have something unique to offer the world, that they should “be themselves because everybody else is already taken.” This trope, however, assumes that as individuals, our identities are entirely separate from those of the humans.
