Consider a social worker who conducted a single subject design a.docx
Consider a social worker who conducted a single subject design along with focus groups to evaluate the effectiveness of a spiritual-based intervention for domestic violence survivors. The numerical data from the single subject design showed that the intervention helped to improve clients’ level of self-efficacy. The focus groups explored clients’ perceptions about what specific elements of the intervention they found helpful. After the focus groups were completed, they were transcribed, and the qualitative data was analyzed using content analysis.
This week, you will explore how qualitative research can be used to inform social work practice. In addition, you will have the opportunity to analyze content analysis findings of a real life focus group that was conducted.
Evidence-based social work practice calls for the use of research data to guide the development of social work interventions on the micro, mezzo and/or macro-levels. Kearney (2001) described ways qualitative research findings can inform practice. Qualitative findings can help social workers understand the clients’ experiences and “what it may feel like” (Kearney, 2001). Therefore, social workers can develop clinical interventions that take into account the experiences of their clients. Qualitative findings can also help social workers monitor their clients. For example, if after reading a qualitative study on how domestic violence survivors respond to stress, they can monitor for specific stress behaviors and symptoms (Kearney, 2001). In addition, they can educate their client what stress behaviors to look for and teach them specific interventions to reduce stress (Kearney, 2001)
Given the increasing diversity that characterizes the landscape in the United States, social workers need to take into account culture when formulating interventions. Social workers can utilize qualitative findings to plan interventions in a culturally meaningful manner for the client.
To prepare for this Discussion, read Knight et al.’s (2014) study from this week’s required resources. Carefully review the findings, the photographs, and how the researchers wrote up the findings. Finally, review the specific macro-, meso-, and micro-oriented recommendations.
Then read Marsigilia and Booth’s article about how to adapt interventions so that they are culturally relevant and sensitive to the population the intervention is designed for. Finally, review the chapter written by Lee et al. on conducting research in racial and ethnic minority communities.

Introduction
Diana Kapiszewski, Gordon Silverstein, and Robert A. Kagan*
In early nineteenth-century America, Alexis de Tocqueville (1835) famously
observed, "[Sjcarcely any political question arises...that is not resolved, sooner
or later, into a judicial question." That may have been a considerable exaggeration
at the time, but today, the dynamic Tocqueville highlighted marks many constitu-
tional democracies in which independent courts are vested with powers of judicial
review. In such countries, political actors, organizations, and ordinary individuals
who become enmeshed in political conflicts have strong incentives to frame their
desires as constitutional or statutory claims and ask courts to vindicate them.
As a result, in the early twenty-first century, courts have become versatile actors
in the governance of many constihitional democracies, and judges and justices
play multiple roles in politics and policymaking. As many observers have noted/
politically consequential courts have emerged in new democracies from Korea to
South Africa to Brazil and beyond; courts in more established democracies such as
Canada and New Zealand have been given or have assumed more power to protect
individual rights and invalidate government policies; and both the European Court
of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) have taken on
dramatic roles in European governance.
However, the political power of courts has ebbed as well as flowed. In many
Latin American countries, judges are not blazing the way to robust constitutional
democracy in the way many hoped they might. The Hungarian Constitutional
Court, once hailed as one of the most significant new constitutional courts (Zifcak
1996), had its wings clipped less than a decade after its creation (Scheppele 1999).2

Introduction
Several quality improvement process tools and techniques exist. They include Lean thinking, Value stream process mapping, Kaizen (The Japanese word for Continuous Improvement), Five Ss (separate, straighten, scrub, standardize, systematize), Kanban Primary and Task Response. In this paper, different strategies or philosophies for quality improvement in business shall be discussed. The tools and techniques that shall be compared are: Lean thinking, Kaizen and Five Ss (separate, straighten, scrub, standardize, systematize)
Comparison
All the techniques aim at improving quality of production processes. They involve the production units and department. All need planning and allocation of resources strategically.
Contrasting
Kaizen is a Japanese word for Continuous Improvement. The philosophy states that everything can be improved continuously. It involves employees in the improvement of quality processes. Workers give their feedback on the criteria and important reviewing issues in the performance of workers, supervisors and managers alike. It bases on many suggestions from employees from all ranks in the organisation. They are expected to consider and implement them with a key goal of improving managerial performance. The system encourages workers to provide suggestion, fosters employee education so that they are informed about improvement, and lastly it encourages employee efficiency (Pinto et al., 2018).
Lean Thinking on the other hand is a technique of quality process improvement aims at improving productivity, quality and lead-time reduction in order to support growth and competitiveness. It involves continuous improvement of the processes and relationships of employees through proven systematic methods, which reduce waste and maximise on customer value. It follows Plan, Do, Check, and Act systematic method. The system achieves low cost productivity, reduce waste, quick response to customer needs and high-quality production (Vlachos, 2015).
Moreover, the Five S's (5S) tools and techniques improves the work place, making it clean, safe, organised and uncluttered thus reducing waste and increase productivity. It builds both mental and physical quality work place (Urick et al., 2018).
The best quality process improvement tool or technique for my project is the 5Ss. This is because it is systematic and aims at making working environment of high quality, improves productivity, makes wastage low, increase employee morale, reduces cost of operation and improves safety (Urick et al., 2018).
Conclusion
In conclusion, tools and techniques for improving quality processes are key in any project. Thought they focus on diverse issues, the 5Ss seems to cover most aspects that increases quality production processes.

Analyze and assess the communication dynamics of an organization to conduct a communication audit
SHRM Competency:
Consultation - The ability to provide guidance to organizational stakeholders.
PROBLEM
All organizations have communication challenges. How do you identify and address these issues as a HR professional or consultant? How can your organization overcome this challenge and improve the communication flow?
In this project, you will use a diagnostic tool called a
communication audit
in order to assess organizational communication within an organization of your choice.
STEPS
Administer the
communication audit survey
in your organization. In order to obtain valid results, you want to survey between 15-20 people. You may print out the survey and distribute it in person for completion, or you may administer it online, for example, using
Survey Monkey
or
Google Forms
. The survey includes questions that tap into five different areas of organizational communication: (1) Receiving information from others, (2) Sending information to others, (3) Sources of information, (4) Timeliness of information, and (5) Channels of communication. Within these five areas of organizational communication, identify one major area of concern to address based on the responses from the survey.
You will then
analyze and synthesize the results of the data
obtained from your audit effort and create your Audit Report using the format below.
Based on the communication audit identify one critical communication challenge that needs to be addressed within your organization. Research the scholarly literature for recommendations about how the organization can address this issue.
Participate in the discussions by reflecting on your work and sharing feedback with others in the class.
Create and deliver a presentation that provides the results of your audit with suggestions for improvement based on the data obtained from the audit and the literature on organizational communication.
FORMAT
Audit Report:
Present an introduction that describes your research methodology and provides details of the survey administration, response rate, and characteristics of the survey population.
Develop a professionally-written narrative in which you describe the data using appropriate tables, charts, and graphs. Include a detailed analysis followed by a summary of your findings, using the example in the "Collecting and Analyzing Data" file below. Identify the top communication challenge from your survey, and present your recommendations to strengthen this communication challenge, based on the scholarly literature. In the appendix, present the survey questions and the responses for each question.

Connection, Collaboration, and Community
Assignment Overview
Case 1 is an essay in which students will communicate using their own thoughts, words, and ideas to demonstrate their ability to interpret text and organize ideas. In addition, the student will demonstrate the ability to integrate others’ words and ideas coherently into one’s own writing, using APA Style format.
Students will analyze and interpret the thoughts, words, and ideas of others, draws conclusions, and solve problems to demonstrate their ability to think critically and creatively in a disciplined and evaluative manner.
Case Assignment
The assigned reading/viewing background materials for Module 1 included such thoughts, words, ideas, and/or concepts as poverty, non-profit, philanthropy, giving, happiness, charity, champion, altruism, and community.
Select two or more of these societal constructs in which you see some sort of connection. For example, how is philanthropy connected to community… happiness connected to giving… or poverty connected to community?
In a well-organized and well-supported essay, discuss where, how, and why that connection exists in our society today. Be sure to provide specific examples to support your point of view, perhaps your own experience in your community, at work, or through your own pursuits. On the other hand, maybe you do not see a connection between many of these concepts, while there should be. In this case, an essay might address ways in which society needs to improve as we consider ways to find connections between these concepts and societal constructs.
Please note that there is no right or wrong response here, just your ability to make a point and support it using details and examples from the readings/viewings as well as your own experience.
A well-organized essay has a beginning, middle, and an end. The beginning, or introduction, should include an opening sentence to grab your reader’s attention. Follow the opening sentence with a brief background to introduce the topic. The last sentence of the introduction is the thesis statement. The thesis states the main point of the essay, which in this case, would be the ways in which two or more concepts resonate. For example,
The principle or practice of altruism on a small (or large) scale can conquer poverty, one individual at a time.
The body (middle) of the essay supports the thesis using points, details, and examples; the conclusion typically summarizes the main points of the essay and/or closes with a lasting impression that connects the reader to their world.
Be sure to proofread your essay and edit for proper grammar, punctuation, diction (word choice), and spelling, as errors in sentence skills will lower a final grade. A grade will be determined based on the Module 1 Case expectations and the Trident University General Education rubric for English.
Papers must be double-spaced in Times or Times New Roman font (12 cpi) with stand.

C OMFORT ME, THE TITLE OF MULTIMEDIA ARTIST Soo Jin Kim’s evocative1993 video work, has long struck me as an apt distillation of the
vexing dynamics of representing “comfort women” by Korean/Americans.
The oddly subject-less phrase, which can be read as an egocentric com-
mand or a plaintive, anxious request, begs the identity of both the “me”
and the implicit “you.” The short ten-minute video features extreme close-
ups of two bodies, one male and one female, in various poses of contact.
The female figure, recognizable as Korean through the repetitive action
of putting on a white slip dress and then a red overskirt of the traditional
hanbok dress, is more prominent and sometimes shown alone as she at-
tempts to scrub her body clean while alternately covering her exposed
crotch with one hand. A sound track of hurried breathing suggests both
the sex act and the frantic effort of cleansing. After a brief first-person
account of being raped that seems to be spoken by the pictured woman,
the voice-over shifts to a third-person female narrator who discloses cer-
tain details about young Korean women recruited by the Japanese Impe-
rial Army for its “comfort girl battalion.” Considering this shift in speak-
ing positions, we might apply the title phrase, “Comfort Me,” not to the
visible Korean “comfort woman” or the Japanese soldier, but rather to
two other invisible subjects of this cultural production: the artist-narra-
tor and the viewer-audience. Who is comforted and by whom through
such representations? The question of differently implicated and com-

forted subjects of such Korean/American cultural productions becomes
more important to ask with each new staging of “comfort women,” espe-
cially now more than a decade after the initial shocking international
publicity around this historical episode.1
The matter of Korean “comfort women” poses multiple problems—
of nomination, of identification, of representation, and of knowledge-
production. Who can know and then, in turn, account adequately for
both the historical event and its multiple subjects? Before that question
can be posed, wh.

CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS
In this chapter you will:
Learn what Congress does.
Reflect on how well Congress represents the people.
Examine the internal workings of Congress.
Consider the importance of skilled congressional leadership.
Think about the problems that face Congress—and some possible solutions.
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS
Introducing Congress
Two Houses, Different Styles HOUSE
Congress is bicameral—comprising “two houses.”
The House of Representatives includes 435 members, divided among the states based on population size, along with six nonvoting delegates from Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, and other U.S. territories.
All 441 House members serve two-year terms, and each represents a district of around 700,000 people.
The majority party elects the Speaker of the House to control which issues reach the floor and to advance their legislative agenda.
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS
Introducing Congress
Two Houses, Different Styles (cont.) SENATE
The Senate is made up of 100 members, two from each U.S. state, each elected for a six-year term.
Legislative hold: An informal way for a senator to prevent a bill or other measure from reaching the Senate floor. The action effectively halts Senate proceedings on that issue, sometimes for weeks or longer.
Filibuster: Rule unique to the U.S. Senate that allows any senator to hold the floor indefinitely, and thereby, to delay a vote on a bill to which he or she objects.
Cloture: When 60 senators vote to end a filibuster.
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS

The House and Senate Each Have Unique Roles
The House of Representatives
All budget measures must originate in the House.
The House holds the power to impeach public officials—including the president—for “high crimes and misdemeanors.”
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS

The House and Senate Each Have Unique Roles
(cont.)
The Senate
After the House impeaches (or indicts) an officeholder, the Senate holds a trial and decides whether to remove him or her.
The president negotiates treaties with other countries, but the Senate must approve them by two-thirds majority.
The Senate also has sole power to review presidential appointments—the Constitution calls it “advice and consent.”

Congress lacks the necessary time and expertise to produce legislati.docx
Congress lacks the necessary time and expertise to produce legislation for every area of conduct in society. This is especially true for highly-specialized and complex industries. It is for this reason that Congress, or occasionally the Executive Branch, delegates regulating powers to existing governmental agencies. At times they also create new commissions or agencies to cope with emerging trends.
For example, after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the 9-11 Commission (also known as the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States) was created in a joint effort of the executive and legislative branches. The Commission’s purpose was to provide a comprehensive account of the terrorist attacks as well as recommendations to guard against future attacks. It developed a set of 41 recommendations for improvement of homeland security, ranging from emergency preparedness and response to reforming government institutions to changing foreign policy.
In the case of the 9-11 Commission, its report was a direct response to its purpose in accounting for terrorist attacks. As a legal researcher, it is important to understand the role of different administrative agencies because it will inform your understanding of the documents that each agency or commission produces.
an explanation of the role and impact of federal administrative agencies on policy shifts and trends. Be specific and use examples to support your explanation.

Congress and the Presidency An Unequal RelationshipThe .docx
Congress and the Presidency: An Unequal Relationship?
"
The tyranny of the legislature is really the danger most to be feared, and will continue to be so for many years to come. The tyranny of the executive power will come in its turn, but at a more distant period
." - Thomas Jefferson
In 1783 American colonists, defying incredible odds, had just beaten the United Kingdom, western hemisphere's preeminent power, in the
American War for Independence
. (NPS.gov, n.d.) Now, these thirteen colonies, saddled with a new governmental charter, the onerous
Articles of Confederation
, sought to chart their own, independent path. (Gilderlehrman, n.d.) As a result, in 1787 disgruntled colonists sent delegates to Philadelphia in order to revise the dysfunctional Articles of Confederation. Yet, in a radical departure, most delegates decided not to amend the current constitution, but instead to craft a new Constitution. (OConnor & Sabato, 2019)
During the four month Constitutional Convention the delegates readily agreed upon James Madison’s basic premise of a new, United States government delineated along three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. That said, most delegates envisioned a strong legislative body and a weak executive office. (Maier, 2011)
Today, many historians and political scientists argue that the institution of the presidency has dramatically increased in power since the end of WWII at the expense of Congress.
This notion of a modern, expansive presidential power, stands in steadied contrast to Congress’ Constitutional ability to “check” the executive branch.
The U.S Congress has three, broad powers that, as per the founding fathers, act as a “check” against the executive branch:
Lawmaking Power
. Only Congress can propose and pass legislation.
An example of Congress’s lawmaking function is the
Declaration of War with Japan of 1941
. More information about Congress’s ability to declare war can be found on the official
House of Representatives’ website
.
Budgetary Power
. Only Congress has the authority to pass and fund the federal budget. Whereas the president request monies for the federal bureaucracies, Congress actually controls the purse strings.
An example of Congress’s budgetary function is the
Congressional Budget Act of 1974
. More information about the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 can be found on the official
House of Representatives’ website
.
Oversight Power
. As per Whitehouse.gov, “Oversight of the executive branch is an important Congressional check on the President’s power and a balance against his discretion in implementing laws and making regulations. A major way that Congress conducts oversight is through hearings. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs are both devoted to overseeing and reforming government operations, and each committee conducts oversight in its policy area.” (Whitehouse, 201.

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.

Consider a social worker who conducted a single subject design a.docx
Consider a social worker who conducted a single subject design along with focus groups to evaluate the effectiveness of a spiritual-based intervention for domestic violence survivors. The numerical data from the single subject design showed that the intervention helped to improve clients’ level of self-efficacy. The focus groups explored clients’ perceptions about what specific elements of the intervention they found helpful. After the focus groups were completed, they were transcribed, and the qualitative data was analyzed using content analysis.
This week, you will explore how qualitative research can be used to inform social work practice. In addition, you will have the opportunity to analyze content analysis findings of a real life focus group that was conducted.
Evidence-based social work practice calls for the use of research data to guide the development of social work interventions on the micro, mezzo and/or macro-levels. Kearney (2001) described ways qualitative research findings can inform practice. Qualitative findings can help social workers understand the clients’ experiences and “what it may feel like” (Kearney, 2001). Therefore, social workers can develop clinical interventions that take into account the experiences of their clients. Qualitative findings can also help social workers monitor their clients. For example, if after reading a qualitative study on how domestic violence survivors respond to stress, they can monitor for specific stress behaviors and symptoms (Kearney, 2001). In addition, they can educate their client what stress behaviors to look for and teach them specific interventions to reduce stress (Kearney, 2001)
Given the increasing diversity that characterizes the landscape in the United States, social workers need to take into account culture when formulating interventions. Social workers can utilize qualitative findings to plan interventions in a culturally meaningful manner for the client.
To prepare for this Discussion, read Knight et al.’s (2014) study from this week’s required resources. Carefully review the findings, the photographs, and how the researchers wrote up the findings. Finally, review the specific macro-, meso-, and micro-oriented recommendations.
Then read Marsigilia and Booth’s article about how to adapt interventions so that they are culturally relevant and sensitive to the population the intervention is designed for. Finally, review the chapter written by Lee et al. on conducting research in racial and ethnic minority communities.

Introduction
Diana Kapiszewski, Gordon Silverstein, and Robert A. Kagan*
In early nineteenth-century America, Alexis de Tocqueville (1835) famously
observed, "[Sjcarcely any political question arises...that is not resolved, sooner
or later, into a judicial question." That may have been a considerable exaggeration
at the time, but today, the dynamic Tocqueville highlighted marks many constitu-
tional democracies in which independent courts are vested with powers of judicial
review. In such countries, political actors, organizations, and ordinary individuals
who become enmeshed in political conflicts have strong incentives to frame their
desires as constitutional or statutory claims and ask courts to vindicate them.
As a result, in the early twenty-first century, courts have become versatile actors
in the governance of many constihitional democracies, and judges and justices
play multiple roles in politics and policymaking. As many observers have noted/
politically consequential courts have emerged in new democracies from Korea to
South Africa to Brazil and beyond; courts in more established democracies such as
Canada and New Zealand have been given or have assumed more power to protect
individual rights and invalidate government policies; and both the European Court
of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) have taken on
dramatic roles in European governance.
However, the political power of courts has ebbed as well as flowed. In many
Latin American countries, judges are not blazing the way to robust constitutional
democracy in the way many hoped they might. The Hungarian Constitutional
Court, once hailed as one of the most significant new constitutional courts (Zifcak
1996), had its wings clipped less than a decade after its creation (Scheppele 1999).2

Introduction
Several quality improvement process tools and techniques exist. They include Lean thinking, Value stream process mapping, Kaizen (The Japanese word for Continuous Improvement), Five Ss (separate, straighten, scrub, standardize, systematize), Kanban Primary and Task Response. In this paper, different strategies or philosophies for quality improvement in business shall be discussed. The tools and techniques that shall be compared are: Lean thinking, Kaizen and Five Ss (separate, straighten, scrub, standardize, systematize)
Comparison
All the techniques aim at improving quality of production processes. They involve the production units and department. All need planning and allocation of resources strategically.
Contrasting
Kaizen is a Japanese word for Continuous Improvement. The philosophy states that everything can be improved continuously. It involves employees in the improvement of quality processes. Workers give their feedback on the criteria and important reviewing issues in the performance of workers, supervisors and managers alike. It bases on many suggestions from employees from all ranks in the organisation. They are expected to consider and implement them with a key goal of improving managerial performance. The system encourages workers to provide suggestion, fosters employee education so that they are informed about improvement, and lastly it encourages employee efficiency (Pinto et al., 2018).
Lean Thinking on the other hand is a technique of quality process improvement aims at improving productivity, quality and lead-time reduction in order to support growth and competitiveness. It involves continuous improvement of the processes and relationships of employees through proven systematic methods, which reduce waste and maximise on customer value. It follows Plan, Do, Check, and Act systematic method. The system achieves low cost productivity, reduce waste, quick response to customer needs and high-quality production (Vlachos, 2015).
Moreover, the Five S's (5S) tools and techniques improves the work place, making it clean, safe, organised and uncluttered thus reducing waste and increase productivity. It builds both mental and physical quality work place (Urick et al., 2018).
The best quality process improvement tool or technique for my project is the 5Ss. This is because it is systematic and aims at making working environment of high quality, improves productivity, makes wastage low, increase employee morale, reduces cost of operation and improves safety (Urick et al., 2018).
Conclusion
In conclusion, tools and techniques for improving quality processes are key in any project. Thought they focus on diverse issues, the 5Ss seems to cover most aspects that increases quality production processes.

This assignment allows you to demonstrate mastery of the course outcomes :
Apply communication theories to organizational communication challenges
Analyze and assess the communication dynamics of an organization to conduct a communication audit
SHRM Competency:
Consultation - The ability to provide guidance to organizational stakeholders.
PROBLEM
All organizations have communication challenges. How do you identify and address these issues as a HR professional or consultant? How can your organization overcome this challenge and improve the communication flow?
In this project, you will use a diagnostic tool called a
communication audit
in order to assess organizational communication within an organization of your choice.
STEPS
Administer the
communication audit survey
in your organization. In order to obtain valid results, you want to survey between 15-20 people. You may print out the survey and distribute it in person for completion, or you may administer it online, for example, using
Survey Monkey
or
Google Forms
. The survey includes questions that tap into five different areas of organizational communication: (1) Receiving information from others, (2) Sending information to others, (3) Sources of information, (4) Timeliness of information, and (5) Channels of communication. Within these five areas of organizational communication, identify one major area of concern to address based on the responses from the survey.
You will then
analyze and synthesize the results of the data
obtained from your audit effort and create your Audit Report using the format below.
Based on the communication audit identify one critical communication challenge that needs to be addressed within your organization. Research the scholarly literature for recommendations about how the organization can address this issue.
Participate in the discussions by reflecting on your work and sharing feedback with others in the class.
Create and deliver a presentation that provides the results of your audit with suggestions for improvement based on the data obtained from the audit and the literature on organizational communication.
FORMAT
Audit Report:
Present an introduction that describes your research methodology and provides details of the survey administration, response rate, and characteristics of the survey population.

Connection, Collaboration, and Community
Assignment Overview
Case 1 is an essay in which students will communicate using their own thoughts, words, and ideas to demonstrate their ability to interpret text and organize ideas. In addition, the student will demonstrate the ability to integrate others’ words and ideas coherently into one’s own writing, using APA Style format.
Students will analyze and interpret the thoughts, words, and ideas of others, draws conclusions, and solve problems to demonstrate their ability to think critically and creatively in a disciplined and evaluative manner.
Case Assignment
The assigned reading/viewing background materials for Module 1 included such thoughts, words, ideas, and/or concepts as poverty, non-profit, philanthropy, giving, happiness, charity, champion, altruism, and community.
Select two or more of these societal constructs in which you see some sort of connection. For example, how is philanthropy connected to community… happiness connected to giving… or poverty connected to community?
In a well-organized and well-supported essay, discuss where, how, and why that connection exists in our society today. Be sure to provide specific examples to support your point of view, perhaps your own experience in your community, at work, or through your own pursuits. On the other hand, maybe you do not see a connection between many of these concepts, while there should be. In this case, an essay might address ways in which society needs to improve as we consider ways to find connections between these concepts and societal constructs.
Please note that there is no right or wrong response here, just your ability to make a point and support it using details and examples from the readings/viewings as well as your own experience.
A well-organized essay has a beginning, middle, and an end. The beginning, or introduction, should include an opening sentence to grab your reader’s attention. Follow the opening sentence with a brief background to introduce the topic. The last sentence of the introduction is the thesis statement. The thesis states the main point of the essay, which in this case, would be the ways in which two or more concepts resonate. For example,
The principle or practice of altruism on a small (or large) scale can conquer poverty, one individual at a time.
The body (middle) of the essay supports the thesis using points, details, and examples; the conclusion typically summarizes the main points of the essay and/or closes with a lasting impression that connects the reader to their world.
Be sure to proofread your essay and edit for proper grammar, punctuation, diction (word choice), and spelling, as errors in sentence skills will lower a final grade. A grade will be determined based on the Module 1 Case expectations and the Trident University General Education rubric for English.
Papers must be double-spaced in Times or Times New Roman font (12 cpi) with stand.

Mediated Affiliations and Disciplined Subjects in
Korean/American Transnationality

C OMFORT ME, THE TITLE OF MULTIMEDIA ARTIST Soo Jin Kim’s evocative1993 video work, has long struck me as an apt distillation of the
vexing dynamics of representing “comfort women” by Korean/Americans.
The oddly subject-less phrase, which can be read as an egocentric com-
mand or a plaintive, anxious request, begs the identity of both the “me”
and the implicit “you.” The short ten-minute video features extreme close-
ups of two bodies, one male and one female, in various poses of contact.
The female figure, recognizable as Korean through the repetitive action
of putting on a white slip dress and then a red overskirt of the traditional
hanbok dress, is more prominent and sometimes shown alone as she at-
tempts to scrub her body clean while alternately covering her exposed
crotch with one hand. A sound track of hurried breathing suggests both
the sex act and the frantic effort of cleansing. After a brief first-person
account of being raped that seems to be spoken by the pictured woman,
the voice-over shifts to a third-person female narrator who discloses cer-
tain details about young Korean women recruited by the Japanese Impe-
rial Army for its “comfort girl battalion.” Considering this shift in speak-
ing positions, we might apply the title phrase, “Comfort Me,” not to the
visible Korean “comfort woman” or the Japanese soldier, but rather to
two other invisible subjects of this cultural production: the artist-narra-
tor and the viewer-audience. Who is comforted and by whom through
such representations? The question of differently implicated and com-

forted subjects of such Korean/American cultural productions becomes
more important to ask with each new staging of “comfort women,” espe-
cially now more than a decade after the initial shocking international
publicity around this historical episode.1
The matter of Korean “comfort women” poses multiple problems—
of nomination, of identification, of representation, and of knowledge-
production. Who can know and then, in turn, account adequately for
both the historical event and its multiple subjects? Before that question
can be posed, wh.

CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS
In this chapter you will:
Learn what Congress does.
Reflect on how well Congress represents the people.
Examine the internal workings of Congress.
Consider the importance of skilled congressional leadership.
Think about the problems that face Congress—and some possible solutions.
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS
Introducing Congress
Two Houses, Different Styles HOUSE
Congress is bicameral—comprising “two houses.”
The House of Representatives includes 435 members, divided among the states based on population size, along with six nonvoting delegates from Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, and other U.S. territories.
All 441 House members serve two-year terms, and each represents a district of around 700,000 people.
The majority party elects the Speaker of the House to control which issues reach the floor and to advance their legislative agenda.
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS
Introducing Congress
Two Houses, Different Styles (cont.) SENATE
The Senate is made up of 100 members, two from each U.S. state, each elected for a six-year term.
Legislative hold: An informal way for a senator to prevent a bill or other measure from reaching the Senate floor. The action effectively halts Senate proceedings on that issue, sometimes for weeks or longer.
Filibuster: Rule unique to the U.S. Senate that allows any senator to hold the floor indefinitely, and thereby, to delay a vote on a bill to which he or she objects.
Cloture: When 60 senators vote to end a filibuster.
CHAPTER 10: CONGRESS

The House and Senate Each Have Unique Roles
The House of Representatives
All budget measures must originate in the House.
The House holds the power to impeach public officials—including the president—for “high crimes and misdemeanors.”

The House and Senate Each Have Unique Roles
(cont.)
The Senate
After the House impeaches (or indicts) an officeholder, the Senate holds a trial and decides whether to remove him or her.
The president negotiates treaties with other countries, but the Senate must approve them by two-thirds majority.
The Senate also has sole power to review presidential appointments—the Constitution calls it “advice and consent.”

Congress lacks the necessary time and expertise to produce legislati.docx
Congress lacks the necessary time and expertise to produce legislation for every area of conduct in society. This is especially true for highly-specialized and complex industries. It is for this reason that Congress, or occasionally the Executive Branch, delegates regulating powers to existing governmental agencies. At times they also create new commissions or agencies to cope with emerging trends.
For example, after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the 9-11 Commission (also known as the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States) was created in a joint effort of the executive and legislative branches. The Commission’s purpose was to provide a comprehensive account of the terrorist attacks as well as recommendations to guard against future attacks. It developed a set of 41 recommendations for improvement of homeland security, ranging from emergency preparedness and response to reforming government institutions to changing foreign policy.
In the case of the 9-11 Commission, its report was a direct response to its purpose in accounting for terrorist attacks. As a legal researcher, it is important to understand the role of different administrative agencies because it will inform your understanding of the documents that each agency or commission produces.
an explanation of the role and impact of federal administrative agencies on policy shifts and trends. Be specific and use examples to support your explanation.

Congress and the Presidency An Unequal RelationshipThe .docx
Congress and the Presidency: An Unequal Relationship?
"
The tyranny of the legislature is really the danger most to be feared, and will continue to be so for many years to come. The tyranny of the executive power will come in its turn, but at a more distant period
." - Thomas Jefferson
In 1783 American colonists, defying incredible odds, had just beaten the United Kingdom, western hemisphere's preeminent power, in the
American War for Independence
. (NPS.gov, n.d.) Now, these thirteen colonies, saddled with a new governmental charter, the onerous
Articles of Confederation
, sought to chart their own, independent path. (Gilderlehrman, n.d.) As a result, in 1787 disgruntled colonists sent delegates to Philadelphia in order to revise the dysfunctional Articles of Confederation. Yet, in a radical departure, most delegates decided not to amend the current constitution, but instead to craft a new Constitution. (OConnor & Sabato, 2019)
During the four month Constitutional Convention the delegates readily agreed upon James Madison’s basic premise of a new, United States government delineated along three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. That said, most delegates envisioned a strong legislative body and a weak executive office. (Maier, 2011)
Today, many historians and political scientists argue that the institution of the presidency has dramatically increased in power since the end of WWII at the expense of Congress.
This notion of a modern, expansive presidential power, stands in steadied contrast to Congress’ Constitutional ability to “check” the executive branch.
The U.S Congress has three, broad powers that, as per the founding fathers, act as a “check” against the executive branch:
Lawmaking Power
. Only Congress can propose and pass legislation.
An example of Congress’s lawmaking function is the
Declaration of War with Japan of 1941
. More information about Congress’s ability to declare war can be found on the official
House of Representatives’ website
.
Budgetary Power
. Only Congress has the authority to pass and fund the federal budget. Whereas the president request monies for the federal bureaucracies, Congress actually controls the purse strings.
An example of Congress’s budgetary function is the
Congressional Budget Act of 1974
. More information about the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 can be found on the official
House of Representatives’ website
.
Oversight Power
. As per Whitehouse.gov, “Oversight of the executive branch is an important Congressional check on the President’s power and a balance against his discretion in implementing laws and making regulations. A major way that Congress conducts oversight is through hearings. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs are both devoted to overseeing and reforming government operations, and each committee conducts oversight in its policy area.” (Whitehouse, 201.

https://app.box.com/s/hqnndn05v4q5a4k4jd597rkdbda0fniiA Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
