Social Sciences Annotated Bibliography Objectives: o Locate academic sources in the social sciences o Evaluate academic sources o Summarize and critique academic sources o Review and practice APA style and documentation Introduction: An annotated bibliography allows a writer and/or researcher to view multiple perspectives on a common topic. The annotations verify a source’s relevance, accuracy, and overall use as a research tool. The annotated bibliography contains three parts: (1) the citation, (2) the summary, and (3) the critique of the source. Think of an annotated bibliography as a reference page with added notes. This means the sources on the annotated bibliography should be alphabetized. Below each citation entry, summarize and critique the source. The summary objectively presents the work’s main points, and the critique evaluates its use, its limitations, and its credibility. Structurally, the summary and critique are sometimes integrated into a single paragraph. Assignment: For this assignment you will created an annotated bibliography of three academic sources centered around your course theme. These sources must all be from the social sciences, so be sure to use the proper research methods and tools. The annotated bibliography (AB) will focus on the social sciences, so please use APA style. When annotating sources, consider the author’s expertise on the topic, the currency of the article, use of illustrations (such as charts), and how effectively the source highlights the research theme. Requirements: o 3 academic sources from the social sciences o APA citation preceding each annotation o Annotations of 100-200 words, to include summary and critique o APA style/documentation—including a cover sheet and running header o Times New Roman, 12-point font o Double-spaced COURSE THEME- Body Image/ Eating Disorders .

Boxing Proves a Hit for French Sociologist (Links to an external site.) An important part of analyzing research approaches includes understanding the positive and negative aspects of varied forms of social research. Ethnography as an approach allows a researcher to immerse in a unique social world in order to experience the lives of those who live there. The most intriguing aspects of this type of qualitative research is how the researcher maintains an ethical and neutral stance, how the experience can impact them, and how they use the experience for positive social change. In your paper, you will present the benefits of ethnographical research in terms of understanding a unique social world, as well as understanding the qualitative researcher’s role in performing and reporting on ethnographic research. You will do this through the resources provided, your own research of immersive ethnographical approaches, and also through critiquing Dr. Loïc Wacquant’s work. In your paper, include the following sections/components: Role of Researcher (One to two pages) Explain the researcher’s role in qualitative research in general and specifically in an ethnographic approach. Discuss the unique issues that researchers should be concerned about in qualitative research. Explain the challenges researchers face 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. Loïc Wacquant’s Research (One to two pages) Summarize what Loïc Wacquant’s research was about. Determine whether or not Wacquant maintained an ethical and neutral stance. Justify the research approach Wacquant chose to take. Explain whether or not this could have been possible with a quantitative research study. Impact of Research (One page) Discuss how qualitative research and, in particular, ethnographic research, can inform our understanding of unique social worlds.

Introduction to Criminology One of the major forms of research conducted by criminologists is searching for and analyzing information in published materials. These materials include peer-reviewed journal articles (articles published in academic journals) government documents (reports such as those published by the National Institute of Justice [NIJ], FBI, etc.) mass media reports (articles in major newspapers [ The New York Times , The Washington Post , etc.] and electronic media outlets [ABC, Fox, CNN, etc.]) Each of these kinds of information sources has its strengths and weaknesses. Depending on the kind of research a criminologist is conducting, one of these may prove more useful than the others. Your mission in this assignment is to find three examples of publications, articles, reports, or stories from each of these kinds of information sources. You will have a total of nine sources‚ three for each information source type. The topics of the works must be pertinent to some aspect of crime and justice. Use the Internet to locate the government documents and mass media reports, and use the UMUC online library to obtain the peer-reviewed journal articles. Then, write a report on what you found. In your report, please do the following: Provide an APA reference for each of the nine works. Annotation - After each APA reference, provide a brief description of the work. Each of the nine descriptions should be at least 100 words in length . The description should tell your reader what the work is about. Summary - After this, write an analysis of the value of each of the three types of information sources (article, report, media news item) from which you gathered examples. In other words, after describing each of the nine works, present a discussion of what you learned about the value to criminologists of peer-reviewed journal articles versus government documents versus mass media reports. What are the strengths and weaknesses of each? We are looking for some critical thinking about these sources here! Format Requirements · Paper should be in American Psychological Association (APA) format · Double space · 12 pt. font · 1” margins · Use APA citations for all sources · Include reference page using APA format guidelines (not included in word count) NOTE: Support materials are available in the classroom to assist you with APA formatting requirements. ...

FIN 402 Week 3 Case Problems Case Problem 6.1 Sara Decides to Take the Plunge 1. LG 1 2. LG 6 Sara Thomas is a child psychologist who has built a thriving practice in her hometown of Boise, Idaho. Over the past several years she has been able to accumulate a substantial sum of money. She has worked long and hard to be successful, but she never imagined anything like this. Even so, success has not spoiled Sara. Still single, she keeps to her old circle of friends. One of her closest friends is Terry Jenkins, who happens to be a stockbroker and who acts as Sara’s financial advisor. Not long ago Sara attended a seminar on investing in the stock market, and since then she’s been doing some reading about the market. She has concluded that keeping all of her money in low-yielding savings accounts doesn’t make sense. As a result, Sara has decided to move part of her money to stocks. One evening, Sara told Terry about her decision and explained that she had found several stocks that she thought looked “sort of interesting.” She described them as follows: · North Atlantic Swim Suit Company. This highly speculative stock pays no dividends. Although the earnings of NASS have been a bit erratic, Sara feels that its growth prospects have never been brighter—“what with more people than ever going to the beaches the way they are these days,” she says. · Town and Country Computer. This is a long-established computer firm that pays a modest dividend yield (of about 1.50%). It is considered a quality growth stock. From one of the stock reports she read, Sara understands that T&C offers excellent long-term growth and capital gains potential. · Southeastern Public Utility Company. This income stock pays a dividend yield of around 5%. Although it’s a solid company, it has limited growth prospects because of its location. · International Gold Mines, Inc. This stock has performed quite well in the past, especially when inflation has become a problem. Sara feels that if it can do so well in inflationary times, it will do even better in a strong economy. Unfortunately, the stock has experienced wide price swings in the past. It pays almost no dividends. Questions a. What do you think of the idea of Sara keeping “substantial sums” of money in savings accounts? Would common stocks make better investments for her than savings accounts? Explain. Answer: It is not a smart idea for Sara to retain substantial sums of money in her savings account for the reason that she could potentially make more money by investing in stocks. For example, the average rate for a savings account is 0.06%, and if you invest in stock, you can make anywhere from 0-15% depending on the amount of risk you is willing to take. b. What is your opinion of the four stocks Sara has described? Do you think they are suitable for her investment needs? Explain. Answer: Three out of the four stocks are ok investments to make since there is so little information provided. I do not think the NASS is a good i.

Fieldwork Research: Primary Sources This assignment assumes 4 steps: Attend a live music making opportunity, a concert, or watch an entire music concert on YouTube. It can be of any music genre (see instructions below). Interview an insider of that culture Write a Fieldwork Concert Report Transcribe and arrange the interview (in the same paper) this the concert https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxjgqVsYu0g&feature=youtu.be ( kpop music is korean music ) first you have to make about concert report/ participant observation : Students will attend minimum one live or online music performance. The preferred ethnographic writing is that of a participant observation – meaning, you take part in the music making next to the performers, so that you can live their experiences. Sometimes this is not possible, and you will have to experience music making from the fan’s perspective, or just that of the spectator’s perspective – in the case of Western classical concerts, or if you are viewing a concert on YouTube. Your goal is to capture the performance, event, and situation, and meaning of the event to the people involved (insider’s point of view). In order to do this, please describe as accurately as possible: • The physical setting (stage, concert hall, audience) – you can draw a plan of the hall and/or take pictures, if allowed • The behavior of individuals and groups of people – both the artists on the stage, as well as the audience • Conversation and interactions between people • Sequence of events (before the concert, during the concert, after the concert) • Demographic survey (count or approximate how many people are there; offer information about their gender, age, professional background, education level – if possible). In trying to assume the audience’s socio-economic status, you can look at their fashion style, cars, etc. • Rationale of the event: for WHOM is the event held, WHERE was it held, WHEN did it happen, and WHY did it happen • People’s emotions, meanings, and beliefs (if possible) the second part is to make interview with 2 persons individually ( create 2 persons from your imagination introduce them and ask them these questions): Upon gaining access in a live performance event or an online music-genre specific chatroom, students will follow the steps below to conduct one interview with a participant in the specific culture/performance: 1- what is your reaction of songs? 2- do you like it? and why do you like it? 3- why do people like these songs or concert? 4- Identify the most expert participant member that you can have access to interview (“key informant”): for some concerts, it would be hard or almost impossible to interview the performer. In such case, interview an audience member/participant/fan that has most knowledge of the culture/genre performed or strong ties to the particular music tradition. 5. Inform them of the purpose of your research, and gain acceptance for interviewing. If the su.

Feminist & Empowerment Theories Feminist theory can be applied with Peter and Fernando to promote self-determination and problem-solving skills for their current and future challenges. Feminist theory states that patriarchal culture is concerned with power and oppression over minority populations (Adams et al., 2013). Specific feminist techniques include: an analysis of oppression and power, exploring client self-esteem and interdependence, and empowering clients (Sommers-Flanagan & Sommers-Flanagan, 2014). Patriarchy is damaging to males in society (Sommers-Flanagan & Sommers-Flanagan, 2014) and teaches ‘manhood’ where the dominant heterosexual culture views homosexual men and women as ‘others’ (Adams et al., 2013). This can be seen with Fernando’s father who has disapproval of his son’s sexual identity. In addition, Peter has taken on the responsibility of head of household while Fernando has taken on the role of stay-at-home caretaker to Jose. Feminist theory brings together personal and political thinking to increase the client’s power (Turner, 2017). When applying feminist theory within a relationship there is an emphasis on the concept of mutuality wherein there is a sense of respect, interest, empathy, and responsiveness experienced by both parties (Turner & Maschi, 2015). This fosters resilience through a two-way relational dynamic (Turner & Maschi, 2015). The use of this approach within the case of Peter and Fernando would help to foster resilience in the family dynamic through this emphasis on mutuality. By fostering empathy, respect, and responsiveness within the relationship dynamic will help Peter and Fernando improve communication through empathy and respect for each other’s perspective. Empowerment is a concept that is strongly supported by evidence in social work practice (Turner, 2017). Empowerment theory and feminist theory both provide social workers with the expertise to validate client experiences, support client strengths, and promote collectivism through mutual aid and support (Turner, 2017). Three dimensions of empowerment theory include: (1) a development of a more positive identity and sense of self, (2) build knowledge and critical thinking to connect personal and political realities, and (3) build resources and strategies to achieve personal and collective goals (Turner, 2017). Empowerment theory assumes that the client(s) are the expert on the issue at hand and have within them the strengths to overcome the given problem (Turner & Maschi, 2015). It is then the job of the social worker to connect the client to resources within their community and assist them in utilizing those resources in keeping with their identified strengths (Turner & Maschi, 2015). .

Felicia’s friend, Fergus, is interested in selling her fried foods using the name “Felicia’s Fabulous Food Company.” Felicia is flattered but does not have enough time to fry any more foods; so Felicia charges Fergus $125,000 to allow Fergus to use her recipes and market the food using her name. On March 10, 2001, Fergus and Felicia enter into a written agreement that provides: 1. Felicia will market and advertise the fried foods. 2. All food is to be prepared with no deviation from Felicia’s recipes. 3. Fergus will manage sales and accounts receivables. 4. Felicia and Fergus will each pay 50 percent of the expenses of the business, such as electricity, water, telephone, heat, insurance and advertising. 5. Felicia will keep two-thirds of the gross receipts and Fergus one-third. Ten years later, Fergus and Felicia had a number of disagreements and Fergus decides to leave the business. At the time, the business’s net worth was $857,000. Felicia argues that she owns the business and that Fergus, if not an employee, was no more than a franchisee. Fergus argues that he is Felicia’s partner. Were Felicia and Fergus partners? Explain and discuss the factors that lead to your conclusion. .

Federalism: Comparing Government Response in Hurricane Katrina vs. Coronavirus You will be watching two 50 minute documentaries: The Strom and Coronavirus Pandemic in order to complete this essay. Topic Overview : Considered together, Hurricane Katrina and Covid-19 both produced policy disasters in the United States that were both unnecessary and linked to federalism. These challenges produced by nature raise the question of whether certain disasters are beyond the capacities of state and local government. Objective : While watching these films, the central theme to take away from these videos is a better and more comprehensive understanding of Federalism, through real life evidence and explanation. Critically analyze each of the elements and consequences of each different national disaster, based on different level of government’s responses, actions. Leadership, communication processes, and decision-making. Despite, both Hurricane Katrina and Corona Virus being deemed as “national emergencies”, the power organization resulted in vastly different responses by each level of government’s leadership (across all levels: federal, state and local). Introduction to Federalism: State and Local governments are the first line responders to crisis. The institutions encompass not only the national government and the American states, each with their own distinctive histories, but extend down to the local level of counties, cities, smaller communities, and special-purpose entities such as school districts. Support and opposition for Federalism rests on government leadership, power, decision-making, and response to national disasters. Response is a geographic and constitutional matter of design. The principles underlying federalism create a power system where multiple levels of government (local, state, and federal) coexist in an organization of power that is both exclusive and shared, depending on the event at hand. Though the federal government has a vital role to play in advancing national priorities through the powers enumerated to it by the U.S. Constitution, our founders recognized long ago that many of the challenges our citizens face can best be addressed at the state level. The Constitution set forth means for strengthening national government’s power, intended to establish a more perfect union (Preamble). Federalism would be the new organization of power, between local, state and federal U.S. government, in order to the remedy weaknesses caused by the Articles of Confederation. Principles of Federalism Limited government States’ rights (10th amendment) Goals of Federalism: Foster cooperation Prevent Federal Intrusion into State Protect State’s utility as “laboratories” of democracy Central Themes to Focus on and Think About comparisons and discussion of struggles between local, state and federal levels of government according to how federalism has manifested into a power tug-of-war in authority division of power division .

Feedback for 4 Milestone Two: Research and Support Please address Milestone two’s feedback and include these changes when working on your Milestone 3 assignment. 1)Proposal Care Support The data you cite in this section supports that there is a nursing shortage. However, I would have liked to see you add more insight into what research shows on the impact this shortage has on patient safety and quality care. What does the research say about the nursing shortage and its connection with quality care, thus leading you to believe a change was necessary? 2) Value-Based Support While you discussed financial impacts of your proposal, you did not touch on value based reimbursement. How does short staffing effect patient care and then ultimately reimbursement rates received by your institution?Top of Form Bottom of Form 3) Data Evidence You listed an example of a quality indicator that MAY be effected by the nrusing shortage. However, you need to include data that the nursing shortage itself is an issue. How many nurses is your facility short? What is the nurse to patient ratio? How many openings are there? etc. 4) Strategies While you gave great examples of strategies that could be used to help improve the nursing shortage, are there any interprofessional strategies currently in use that would also be helpful? 5) Strategy Defense So what nursing indicators will be affected with the implementation of your proposal? See http://ojin.nursingworld.org/MainMenuCategories/ANAMarketplace/ANAPeriodicals/OJIN/TableofContents/Volume122007/No3Sept07/NursingQualityIndicators.html for a list of the Nursing Sensitive Indicators Additionally, while you wrote your own professional insight, I would have liked to see you utilize research to add support to these views and ideas. 6) Articulation of Response Submission has errors related to citations, grammar, spelling, or syntax Running head: RESEARCH & SUPPORT 1 Research and support 2 Nursing Shortage and the Need for More Nurses Research and Support Proposal Care Support Nurses are a very critical part of a health care facility. Nursing shortage is not just a problem experienced in the United States but globally. The shortage is as a result of high turnover, unavailability of potential educators and unfair distribution of the workforce. Healthcare organizations are therefore competing to acquire the scarce nurses in order to improve their delivery of quality care. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 1.1 million additional nurses are required to address the shortage problem (Haddad, 2019). For an organization to effectively compete for the scarce nurses, acquire top talent and reduce employee turnover, it must offer an enticing compensation and benefits package. Organizations that offer great wages and benefits easily attract applicant and maintain the nurses they already have. My proposal to offer a better compensation and benefits package would therefore lead to an i.

Federal Budget Speech " Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you ." - Thomas Jefferson The federal budget spends close to four trillion dollars a year and is split between mandatory spending (what the federal government has to spend due to congressional legislation) and discretionary spending (what the federal government spends as a result of congressional allotment). Roughly speaking, mandatory spending accounts for two-thirds of the federal budget and discretionary spending accounts for one-third of the federal budget. Every year the executive and legislative branches debate budgetary priorities for the federal bureaucracies such as the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, the Environmental Protection Agency, Veteran Affairs, the Department of Education, and others. Many of these debates occur within congressional committee meetings as members of Congress, federal employees, outside interests, and individual citizens articulate funding requests. For the Unit 9 Assignment you will compose a speech advocating why your chosen department, administration, or agency within the federal bureaucracy should receive additional funding. Because the “world is a stage,” let us establish the setting, plot, and the ensuing action for your speech. Setting: Exterior: Washington D.C. State Capitol Building. Interior: Room 221B. Congressional Hearing Room. Plot: Imagine that you are in a cavernous room. You sit before a large table facing twenty one senators from the Budget Committee. Photographers, more than you can imagine, squeeze between the space that separates you from the members of Congress. Behind you in the gallery, public policy wonks and regular citizens sit, awaiting your presentation. You are a featured speaker from a citizen group that advocates a particular public policy funding concern for your federal department, administration, or agency. Prior to the meeting you have already read the president’s proposed federal budget for the upcoming year from the Office of Management and Budget and you have some budgetary concerns. You read in alarm how the upcoming federal budget request from the White House reduces funding for your federal department, administration, or agency. But, as you know, it is up to Congress to fund the executive bureaucracy. The executive branch requests funding and the legislative branch allocates funding. This is your chance to request more funding for your federal department, administration, or agency of choice. Action: Equally eager and nervous you stand in front of a lectern. “Now,” you think, “now I am ready…” You click on the microphone, examine your prepared speech about your funding request, and you begin to speak with eloquence and passion! Directions : Compose a 400 word transcript of your public policy speech. Select a specific example of public policy from one of the following fields: Economic policy – for example, U.S. budget deficit spending. .

Feedback developed by Estee Beck, PhD General strategies for peer response attribution to an unknown author The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Peer Feedback Research in writing studies show evidence that undergraduate student writers are not familiar with providing adequate peer feedback, and instead rely upon mildly pleasant comments as a way to not offend a fellow student. At the same time, getting feedback is a crucial step in writing. Feedback provides insight from a detached reader, who may provide overall direction for the works-in-progress. Learning how to give feedback requires practice, patience, good reading skills, and sensitivity toward relations. But, students need training with how to give good peer feedback. How to give not-so-great feedback: Here’s a sample paragraph from a friend who has asked for some feedback on the scope of the paragraph. He’s concerned that the summary paragraph does not provide enough detail to conclude a section of the paper. for working within electronic computer Although computers & writing and digital rhetoric employ different methodologies benefits apply to classroom based writing practices along with research and scholarship, the ultimate quest provides insight into a knowledge and information exchange economy through and with digital technologies. As people make -mediated spaces, both fields form around a sense of searching for how people and machines interact with each other. While the advancements with digital technologies, especially with movement in the multi- million dollar Internet of Things industry, the relationship of not just human-to- machine interaction, but also machine-to-machine interaction will become important for rhetoricians to address. Again, understanding the function of rhetoric in algorithmic processes is just one step in support of positioning a rhetorical code studies as central to rhetorical scholarship. Comment [BE1]: I have no idea what this means! Comment [BE2]: Long Comment [BE3]: Who cares? Comment [BE4]: This is a horrible paragraph. The comments in the margins show a few traits: An uncaring critique, ignorance, inadequate explanation, and a final comment that’s not too pleasant to read. What’s missing from the four comments? Here’s the same paragraph, with some alterations: Although computers & writing and digital rhetoric employ diferent methodologies Comment [BE6]: Punctuation Comment [BE5]: Spelling error for working with electronic computer mediated spaces both fields form a sense of searching for people and machines interact with each other.

These sources can include books, academic journal articles, and published expert reports. Whatever the exact form, academic sources all have in common the fact that they are peer-reviewed. Peer reviewed sources are written by an expert in the field and have passed review by other experts who judged the source for quality and accuracy. If a source is peer-reviewed, you know it is a good choice for high-quality, accurate information about your topic. Not all sources show whether they are scholarly relevant or peer-reviewed, but there are some clues you should check. · Look at the author's credentials. They should have an advanced degree and/or an affiliation with a scholarly organization like a university or a science foundation. · Look as well for a list of references or a bibliography. Most high-quality research is based on other research, so a good source will have a list of works the author studied as he or she was writing it. Check this list to make sure. · Finally, you can tell a lot about a source by looking at the publisher who publishes it. Scholarly sources should be published by a professional association like the American Medical Association; by a university, for example the Oxford Unive.
