Using Resources to Promote Critical Thinking
Critical Thinking is an integral part of any educational program,
At UC, we encourage and provide applicable resources for the promotion of critical thinking
In order to properly research and complete course papers, proper resources must be utilized
2
Critical Thinking helps us to:
Understand the links between ideas
Determine the importance and relevance of arguments and ideas.
Recognize, build and appraise arguments.
Identify inconsistencies and errors in reasoning.
Approach problems in a consistent and systematic way.
Reflect on the justification of their own assumptions, beliefs and values.
3
Researching Using the Critical Questions
When using research resources it is imperative to review the six critical questions an implement that data into your writings.
4
Proper Resources for Research
When asked to complete a research paper in the UC School for Computer and Information Sciences, you must use scholarly, peer-reviewed articles.
A peer-reviewed article is one that has that has “been evaluated by several researchers or subject specialist in the academic community prior to accepting it for publication” and is “also known as scholarly or referred.”
Your professor or the UC Librarian can help you determine whether or not an article is peer-reviewed

THE ETHICAL DILEMMA SPYING ON UNILEVER INTRODUCTION In Business Ethics as a Rational Choice, John Hooker cited a case study to analyze rational choice based on an issue with espionage. In 2001, John Pepper, Chairman of the Board at
Procter
and Gamble, found out that some of his contractors were spying on
Unilever
, one of his competitors. Information they found was also in the business media a day before, he discovered. Was this ethical, based on generalizable, utilitarian, and virtue ethics? Was it GENERALIZABLE? Generalizable means there must be a reason behind an action, and the action is justified for everyone (p.7). Was it utilitarian? Utilitarian analysis states that the rational choice must maximize utility (p. 6). The marketing professionals did not have to search in the trash for information since the day before they did it, similar information was already in the media. Therefore their actions were unjustifiable. no: it was not generalizable Was it virtue ethics? Virtue ethics must be consistent with broad cultural acceptable behaviors Conclusion P &G's espionage activity did not pass the code of ethics test, since it needed to pass all three to be considered rationally ethical. Therefore, John Pepper's reactions to the issue was valid and justified. Their actions failed in the generalization, utilitarian, and virtue ethics tests. The net usage of the information they found in the trash did not surpass the information found in the news, because it was the same exact information. Therefore it was useless of them to go into the trash in search of secrets. no: it was not utilitarian It is unacceptable in our culture to have our professionals diving into dumpsters to spy on other firms in order to get ahead. Especially after the information was aired in the media, why was this company conducting this espionage. no: it was not virtue ethical References Hooker, J. (2011). Business ethics as rational choice. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Pearson Education.

Course Description Considering that an organization’s peoplCruzIbarra161
Course Description:
Considering that an organization’s people are responsible for gaining and sustaining a competitive
advantage, knowing how to mobilize and motivate employees is critical to business strategy
execution. Understanding and practicing organizational behavior (OB) concepts is important for
managerial effectiveness and gives individuals, teams, and organizations the skills and tools they
need to be effective. OB plays a key role in improving and maintaining every aspect of individual
and organisational performance, and it is vital for organisational success. In addition to being the
foundation of personal success in any organisation, OB skills also help managers and employees in
effectively addressing new challenges.
Course-Specific Learning Objectives:
This course is designed to deepen your knowledge of OB from an individual, group, and
organizational perspective. A primary goal is to encourage you to reflect on and apply
this knowledge in ways that will enhance your managerial and professional skills. Specific learning
objectives include that by successfully completing this course you will:
• Understand the importance of OB theories, tools, and concepts.
• Understand how organizations work and why people behave as they do in work settings.
• Apply OB principles to typical problems in organizations to enhance individual, group, and
organizational effectiveness.
• Reflect on your own beliefs, assumptions, and behaviors with respect to how individuals,
groups, and organizations act in order to expand skills and increase your professional
effectiveness.
• Learn and practice the “soft skills” of managing. Improve skills in reacting appropriately to
organizational situations using OB concepts.
Topics-
Introduction to Organizational Behavior, Communication, Attitudes, Job satisfaction, Emotion and Moods in organizations, Perception and Individual Decision Making, Diversity in organizations, Motivation, Team, Leadership, Organizational Change and Stress
Management, Organizational Culture
Some expanded topics-
COMMUNICATION - downward communication,lateral communication, upward communication, grapevine communication process (>?
ATTITUDES, JOB SATISFACTION, EMOTION AND MOODS IN ORGANIZATIONS
Attribution theory suggests that when we observe an individual’s behavior, we attempt
to determine whether it was internally or externally caused. That determination depends
largely on three factors: distinctiveness, consensus, and consistency
Understand theories of motivation:
Maslow’s Hierarchy
Theories X and Y
Two-Factor Theory
McClelland’s Theory of Needs
Expectancy Theory
Goal Setting Theory
Equity Theory
Self-efficacy theory

Assignment 3: Presenting With PowerPoint

CIS105 Intro to Information Systems

Hello, my name is Jane Doe and today I will be presenting my Assignment 3: Presenting with PowerPoint presentation, all about everything I learned in CIS105 Intro to Information Systems in my first term here at Strayer University.
1
Information Systems Terms and Concepts
Digital Literacy
Knowledge, skills, and behaviors needed for the effective use of digital devices and effective participation in an information-based society
Hardware
The physical components of a computer that you can touch
Software
The coded instructions that tell the computer’s hardware what to do
2
We started the course by learning some basic information systems terms and concepts. This was important to get us started learning all about the world of computers. I work in the security field so I didn’t have very much experience with computers at all coming into this course, other than knowing how to download an app on my phone.
One thing I learned about was digital literacy—this means the knowledge, skills, and behaviors needed for the effective use of digital devices and effective participation in an information-based society. Being digitally literate is an essential skill for being an online student, working in today’s information-based job market, and just being a citizen of the modern world and being able to do what you need to do as far as taking care of your family, paying your bills, ordering things online, and everyday actions like that.
I also learned the difference between your computer’s hardware and software. The hardware is the physical parts of a computer that you can see and touch, like the keyboard, the monitor, the tower, the mouse, the webcam. The software is the programs that run it – the coded instructions that tell the computer’s hardware what to do. The Microsoft Office Suite that we learn later in the class is an example of computer software.

Internet
Internet Service Provider (ISP)
A company that provides Internet access for a fee
Protocol
Standard set of rules, requirements, and criteria for all devices and networks to follow
Search Engine
Software system that relies on algorithms to process data and search for content on the Web
3
NOTE: In this sample only the first two (2) slides contain sample audio, remember to add audio to each slide.
Next in Weeks 2 and 3 we learned all about the Internet—what it is, what it does, and how to best use it most effectively and efficiently for your needs.
One of the main things I learned here was that an Internet Service Provider, or ISP, is a company that provides Internet access for a fee. Service Electric and Verizon in my home area of Pennsylvania are our main providers.
I learned that protocol refers to the standard set of rules, requirements, and criteria that all devices (computers, iPads, phones, etc.) and networks follow. This allows the devices and networks t ...
This powerpoint focuses on the current reality of being data driven in the international development sector, the blockers organizations face in effectively being data driven and the quick wins (and slow ones) on how to more effectively learn and take action from data!

14. Born as Maria Sklodowska in Warsaw, Poland in
1867, Madame Curie conducted pioneering
research into Radioactivity. She discovered
Polonium (named after her native country of
Poland) and Radium, along with her husband
Pierre Curie. Her method of research and
revolutionary techniques lead to fundamental
shift in scientific understanding of the atom.
Madame Curie throughout her life actively
promoted the use of radium to alleviate suffering.
During World War I, assisted by her daughter,
Irene, she personally devoted herself to this
remedial work. She was the first woman to win a
Nobel prize. The only person to win Nobel prizes
in multiple sciences - Physics in 1903 and
Chemistry in 1911.
