Team Report GuidelinesA 12 – 15 page report of the analysis is.docxerlindaw
Team Report Guidelines
A 12 – 15 page report of the analysis is required using 12 point font, double-spacing, and following APA’s writing style. Only one report is needed for each team. For the purpose of this project, use the text chapters assigned for this course in addition to any other available references such as books, journals, newspaper, internet information, or a direct interview (in case of an interview) as resources for your research. Comment by JINGDAO QIAN: Comment by JINGDAO QIAN: 6 page for my part
Teams are to cite at least ten (10) references for their analysis. This means that teams are to refer to the information in these sources in a relevant way throughout the paper using APA format. At least five (5) references must be journal articles from scholarly sources using the University of La Verne’s Wilson library or Google Scholar searches. The remainder of the team’s references can come from a wide variety of non-scholarly sources including newspapers, business magazines, and professional organizations. Please have a list of references on a separate page at the end of the document.
Although not required, please also consider conducting an interview(s) with a member(s) of the organization. If your team does conduct interviews, include the interview questions in the report.
In the report you need to apply the concepts learned during the course to describe and assess the organization. A description and assessment of the following components of the organization must be included in your report:
1. Vision, mission, strategies, and goals
1. Culture and ethics including its use of teams
1. Environment Comment by JINGDAO QIAN: My part
1. Leadership styles and effectiveness
1. Evaluate overall effectiveness and recommend changes
1. Training and workforce diversity
Presentation Guidelines
A 30-minute PowerPoint presentation with slides is required. Each team member is expected to participate in the presentation. Your team should focus on trying to make the presentation interesting and informative to the class. Remember, your team will be the "experts" on this subject after they have finished researching the topic. Comment by JINGDAO QIAN: 12 slides wil be enough, better be content-wise, for presentation.
Presentation of the Organization Analysis Project must be professional with minimal, if any, direct reading of your report. Be sure to enhance your presentation by citing relevant literature and including appropriate pictures and video clips related to the organization and your analysis.
Important Note:
To keep within the 30 minute time limit, only present on four components from A to F of the report. However, you must include component A the company’s vision, mission, strategies, and goals. In addition, you must also provide an evaluation of the organization’s overall effectiveness and the team’s recommendations based on the concepts learned in the course (component E).

Analyze the situation and prepare a recommendation for the COO. State any assumptions you make about the nature of differences in the teamCultural differences and personality differences can impact cooperation. Team building is an important aspect of communication. Consider some aspects of culture and personality that may impact how people work together.
Assessment taskStudents are required to write an academic report a.docxlauricesatu
Assessment task
Students are required to write an academic report as per the format outlined in chapter 5 of the textbook. The report must follow either the
Harvard citation and referencing guidelines
or
APA referencing style
. Please note that the prescribed textbook uses APA referencing guidelines but the School of Engineering and Technology recommends Harvard style. See also the
Referencing Style
subsection below.
The report is to be based on the following case study scenario about Bring Your Own Devices (BYOD).
BYOD refers to the situation where organisations allow their employees to bring their personal mobile devices (such as, laptop computers, tablet computers and smart phones) into the workplace and to use those devices to access the organisations’ Wi-Fi, intranet, organisational information and computer applications. The term BYOD is also used to describe the same practice being applied to students using their personal devices at school or university.
Staff who choose to BYOD argue that it is more convenient for them and makes them more productive in the workplace. Advantages for organisations include the potential for cost savings and increased morale
of their employees.
However, BYOD also brings significant risks. To ensure that confidential organisational information does not end up with their competitors, organisations need to ensure that they have adequate security measures in place. BYOD increases the opportunities for security breaches to occur. For example, family or friends of employees may have access to the devices in the home environment which could allow non-employees to access confidential information. In addition devices may be lost, misplaced or sold (without first removing the sensitive information) which could result in unauthorised access to an organisations’ sensitive data.
Another issue with BYOD is the lack of standardisation. It is hard for technical staff to support a variety of BYODs that all have a range of software applications on them.

Your organisation has a diversified business model that includes mobile application development as well as developing information systems applications for large organisations. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has asked you to research BYOD at your organisation. She is interested in finding out how the use of BYOD could be used to improve its business model both locally and globally over the next five years. She is also concerned about any possible negative impacts on your organisation. You are to write a report to be presented at the next executive meeting. The report should address the following tasks:

Section 1–Organizational Description
Assignment Length: 2–3 pages
The executive leadership of an organization has hired your firm to work with them; largely for your firm’s ability to support recommendations made with current research on systems and leadership management and theory. The client would like your firm to model and describe their organization based on recent developments in both systems and leadership management and theory.
The notion of tipping points is related to systems as that point in which a system changes from one state to another. While there is a mathematical description for a tipping point, it is out of scope for this class. Instead, consider a tipping point as simply a break from the current state of a system to a new state. For example, if a company were to be acquired by another company, it would experience a tipping point. If a company were to radically downscale, then it would experience another tipping point. Tipping points are a common feature of systems, such as ecological systems, climate systems, insect colonies, and human social systems.

·
Inputs (information, materials, and energy)
·
Top-level organizational process
·
Outputs (information, materials, and energy)
·
Two or more thresholds or tipping points beyond which the organization would become unrecognizable
·
Explain the organization in detail to interpret your model.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

quirk of BB and the only way around it is for your instructor to intervene.
(This is not true for individual assignments. Individual assignments can
be submitted repeatedly by the student).
Week 5 Reminder: Late items are NOT accepted in Week 5. All
assignments must be posted by 11:59 pm on our last day of class.
Resource: Final Learning Team Presentation
Background Info:
Global, Inc. is a fictitious company who hired your team to give a
presentation. Your team has been asked to speak to the Board of
Directors and a group of leaders at Global, Inc. because they are about to
experience a major organizational change. During our class, we will
study a variety of major organizational changes and how they relate to
organizational communication.
Your team has been hired to present information that will help Global, Inc.
during its transition. Your team will specifically identify organizational
communication factors that should be taken into consideration as Global,
Inc. experiences this major change. Your team will provide a PowerPoint
presentation with speaker notes or recorded speakers, a written
supplement, and a list of references.
17. Review your team’s topic, action plan, and outline as you work on your
presentation. Be sure to update your references as you move forward with the
presentation. Reference should include at least three peer-reviewed outside
sources (not including our course text).
Create a 15- to 20-minute oral presentation, accompanied by visuals, that
presents information to help Global, Inc., in the transition. Time the
presentation to make sure it is 15-20 min long. Your team may record the
presentation, provide a script, or include detailed speaker notes. I need to
know exactly what will be said at the presentation.
Specifically identify organizational communication factors that should be taken
into consideration as the organization experiences the change. Use the info we
learned in class to support your presentation.
Address all of the following in your presentation:
1. Identify and describe the change that is taking place.
2. Discuss how management communication directly impacts overall
organizational communication. How might this communication affect how the
change is perceived?
3. Discuss the way in which the organization’s managers and leaders can
effectively respond to the change. What should leaders consider about
perception, individual orientations, and types of change adopters as they
communicate the change?
4. Evaluate the communication strategies that can be used to
communicate the change to the organization.
5. Identify at least two barriers to effective communication that leaders
might encounter in the organization and discuss strategies to overcome these
barriers.
Prepare a written supplement (flyer, executive summary, handout,
brochure, etc) that summarizes the information in your presentation. This will
be left with the leaders of Global, Inc after your presentation. Your supplement
can be in the form of a brochure, informational sheet, executive summary, etc.
but should NOT be an essay. Be sure the supplement adequately captures the
main ideas discussed in your presentation and is appropriate for a professional
meeting.
