The document provides instructions for students to compose critiques of documentaries or films viewed in class. It explains that a critique is an analytical essay that gives the student's opinion on the aesthetics, content, and quality of the film with reasons to support their opinion. It should not simply react to whether they loved the film, and should be consistently analytical and critical. The document then provides a scale to rate films from outstanding to poor, describing criteria for each rating. It includes questions for students to answer to analyze characters, themes, messages, and their overall impressions of the viewed film.

Under the Skin booklet - a guide, workbook and text book for A-Level film stu...Ian Moreno-Melgar
Thanks for taking a look at my resource. This resource is a 61 page, 16,000+ word guide to the A-Level Film studies film Under The Skin.
This guide is designed so that it can be printed out and students simply work straight onto it and therefore works brilliantly as a workbook for individual lessons, a whole half-term, for homework, revision, distance learning or for taking the material and turning into other formats such as creating your own PowerPoints.
There is so much in this guide that it’s almost impossible to list, but some key aspects include context, a detailed analysis of the film, examinations of the Production History of the film, including the adaptation process, a detailed exploration of narrative and narrative theory, a thorough exploration of ideology related to gender studies including oak on Clover, Mulvey & Creed, details on the aesthetics of the sci-fi film, plus analytical work and tasks , work on exam questions and much, much more.
This will save you not hours of work, but WEEKS worth of work and preparation and I guarantee will be worth the download. Your download includes both an editable Word version AND a high quality PDF, ready for printing or sharing immediately.

Analyze Communication in a Movie
You will choose a communication concept on which you will focus in the movie. See text chapters for topics
As you prepare to analyze communication in the movie, you might imagine that, as experts about the topic chosen, you have been asked to create an educational presentation for people outside the class. The presentation you design should be: • Attention-getting • Memorable • Impactful • Smart and well informed (use terms, theories, and examples from the book and from published research) • Deep and insightful. (Go beyond common sense or what the average person who watches the movie would notice.
Overall Tips and Guidelines
• Treat the action in the movie as if it really happened. This means you needn’t mention who played which role or anything like that. Instead, focus on the characters as if they are real people. • Go deep. Look and listen so closely that you notice communication phenomena that other people miss or take for granted. • Don’t summarize the entire plot. Instead, zero in specific aspects that are relevant to your topic. contribute fully.
Graded Components
The project involves a combination of individual work and team work, as reflected in the following outline. You will complete the project in stages so that you can stay on track and receive feedback throughout the semester.
Brainstorm and then Watch the Movie
Before Watching the Movie: Make notes in advance about concept-relevant terms, ideas, and tips from the book so you can focus on them in the movie.
During the Movie: Have your notes on hand for quick reference. • Keep an eye out for anything in the movie relevant to your topic. • Jot down notes throughout the movie. • After the movie, Push yourself beyond common sense and obvious evidence. Go deep. Your goal is to teach the audience something they don’t already know.
Develop a Thesis Statement and Planning Outline
After reviewing the guidelines and standards of excellence that follow, create a planning outline that presents a clear and interesting thesis statement, three main points that support your thesis statement, and examples from the movie that support each main point. (This outline doesn’t yet incorporate published research reports. That will come later.)
Drafting a Thesis Statement Your thesis should be a provocative, interesting, and supportable argument you make about the significance or impact of your communication topic in the movie. It’s important to focus on a particular aspect of the communication topic chosen.
Bad Thesis Statement: Characters in the movie display nonverbal communication.
Good Thesis Statement: In the movie While You Were Sleeping, as Lucy becomes less lonely and isolated, her clothing gradually changes to symbolically reflect her brighter outlook.
Identifying Main Points: Your presentation should have three main points, each one supporting the argument you make in your thesis statement in a specific way. Depending on what you are trying to prove, your.
Week 1 Instructor GuidanceThe techniques used to study any f.docxcelenarouzie
Week 1 Instructor Guidance
The techniques used to study any form of literature–-close reading, analysis of style, and assessing those basic literary elements such as character, setting, tone, etc.–-are about the same as the kind of close scrutiny we should apply to watching films. What this means is that a particular kind of concentrated attention will be rewarded. That’s what this class will focus on, the premise from which it springs: that closely studying and analyzing certain films will lead to greater insights about the situations in those films, as well as film in general, which should spur us on to greater insights about ourselves. Which means, in this figuration, that we use film to develop vital critical skills to impact our lives, our studies, and our future career fields as well.
But don't take my word for it!
Here's a snippet from the Syllabus, from under the heading Course Design:
ENG225 takes a formalist approach to understanding film structure (i.e., how individual "parts" contribute to the overall film experience). Students will learn to recognize and investigate the artistic and technical components of the cinema and evaluate the ways that films create meaning through their narrative and stylistic elements.
That's the premise of this course in a nutshell. We can train ourselves to be alert and alive to the parts of a thing in an effort to see the whole, and that if we figure out not only what is happening, but also how it happens, this will in turn help us to relate to it and see it in new and exciting ways.
If you haven't yet, please spend some time reading through the Course Home links. Not only does it include all the important policies and requirements for this class, along with handy grids detailing your weekly requirements, but it also helps to give you a broader context for the learning in this course.
While we're on the topic of guidelines, I just want to make a big push in favor of reading the prompts carefully for every assignment in this class. For example, our Post Your Introduction prompt deviates pretty significantly from what you might be used to in other classes. Take the time to read your requirements fully so that you don't lose points for doing things incorrectly.
Many of us have been watching movies for years, and I would hazard to guess that many of us have watched many movies! Maybe you only see one per month, but maybe you see one every day; maybe you see them in the theater, in your home, or on your computer screen. But whether you’re a real devotee of film, or someone who more casually enjoys film as entertainment, you’ve probably noticed something as you watched movie after movie: Some times you like the movie you're watching and sometimes you don't.
Although that seems wildly simplistic, it gives us a good starting point for the study of film. Why?—Because it provides us a criteria, and in some ways, studying anything is a process of applying various criteria to it.

Acting and Acting StylePrepareAs we have been discussing, .docxnettletondevon
Acting and Acting Style
Prepare
As we have been discussing, the mise en scène of a film is the use of a variety of design elements to create the visual theme. As you prepare to write this discussion, take a few moments to do the following:
· Read any required and recommended reading materials for this week, especially Chapter 5 (Mise en Scene and Actors).
· Review the grading rubric for this discussion.
· Select a full-length film from the AFI 10 Top 10 list.
Reflect
Mise en scène refers to different technical elements used in making a film such as lighting and sound, both of which you have already analyzed in this course. The term also encompasses the role of actors in a film, their physical positioning and movements within the frame, as well as the different styles and types of acting.
You can classify an acting category using only one film as reference, but these categories are subject to change. Each new role helps to clarify or shift an actor’s designation. Do some actors always fall into the same category? How can actors change from category to category? Does genre have any effect on the acting styles present in a given film?
Write(due Thursday, Day 3)
Please view the video Adding Pictures and Video to Discussions and Introductions for guidance on how to integrate multimedia with your response.
Using specific examples from your chosen film, write an initial post of at least 200 words which should
· Identify three actors from your film and classify each according to the acting category listed in your text.
· Explain your reasons for classifying the actors as you do. Use specific references to the film and pay special attention to how these decisions impacted characterization. Also, consider the impact of any realistic or stylized portrayals within the film.
· Focus on one of the actors you’ve discussed. Based on other films the actor has been in, would this actor always be placed in the same category? If so, what does this say about the category or actor? If not, what can you infer about the flexibility of these categories? Provide evidence (references from other films, including film clips and stills) to support your argument.
You must use at least two outside sources, in any combination of embedded video clips, still photos, or scholarly sources. All sources should be documented in APA style as outlined by the Ashford Writing Center.
Respond to Peers(due Monday, Day 7)
Respond to at least two classmates who chose different actors or different categories than you did. In your responses, reference your initial post and show how your ideas relate to those of your peers. Your responses should be 150 to 175 words each.
Please view the video Accessing Feedback in the Gradebook for guidance on how to review your instructor’s feedback when the post is graded.

Literary Analysis Essay Assignment A literary analysis .docxcroysierkathey
Literary Analysis Essay Assignment
A literary analysis essay typically requires you to write about the meaning you have inferred
from a piece of literature (e.g., a novel, film, play, poem, etc.). You are expected to have a
thesis and support it with evidence (examples) from the literary work. Typically, you’ll analyze
the idea or message, plot, characters, tone, use of symbolism, writing style, or any other
devices that the author has used. Analysis of a film or play might focus on visual effects,
lighting, sequencing or how an actor portrays a character.
In a literary analysis essay, you do not focus entirely on the plot. Rather, you look at how the
plot was designed, why it was developed, the choices an author made and whether these
choices are effective choices. Although some context may be needed so readers can
understand, you are not being asked to write a book report. The purpose is not to give a
summary of the plot to prove you have read and understood it. Instead, you will offer an idea
and present it through careful examination of the author’s or director’s choices. You are
expected to refer to portions of the text or film to support your ideas. The goal is to make
readers learn something new about the literary piece, or watch or read it with “new eyes.”
Here is a summary of a long, 15-page paper, “Gender Roles in Disney Films: Analyzing
Behaviors from Snow White to Simba,” written by a graduate student:
For this Assignment:
The purpose of this assignment is to help you develop your analytical skills, your ability to
support an idea with evidence from a text or image, and your ability to organize logically what
you want to say. With a peer partner, you will write a 500-word literary analysis essay in which
you compare/contrast TWO FILMS.
Choose your films and your topic carefully after brainstorming together. Later in the semester,
both of you will present your analysis to the class in a short presentation. When choosing a
topic,
While television cartoons have served as focal points for researchers concerned about gender

analyzed Disney full-length animated films to identify the gendered “world view” they
provide for young viewers. Prosocial and antisocial behaviors were examined to determine
the prevalence of gender stereotypes within the films. Specific attention was paid to gender
issues regarding victims of antisocial acts, contrasts between heroes and heroines, and
differences between female and male villains.

NarrativeStorytellingOur textbook sets up a distinction between.docxveachflossie
Narrative/Storytelling
Our textbook sets up a distinction between story and plot, stating that story is what happens in a movie, and plot is
how
it happens. The distinction may seem minor; however, throughout this course, we will be scrutinizing the various aesthetic choices and cinematic techniques that work together to create meaning in any movie. With that in mind, we can understand that the way a film presents action can be as important as the action it is presenting.
For your initial blog post
Select a full-length film and identify the title, writer, director, major actors, and the year it was released.
Summarize the story and plot of your chosen movie.
Discuss whether your film is presented chronologically or non-linearly. In your discussion, address the following:
How did this aesthetic choice contribute to the general effect on the audience?
How are elements like character development or foreshadowing impacted by the choice of storytelling methods?
If the film had followed a different presentation style, how would the general effect on the audience have been different?
You must use at least two outside sources, in any combination of embedded video clips, still photos, or scholarly sources. All sources should be documented in APA style.

Writing Conclusions for Research Papers
What is the purpose of a conclusion?
A conclusion is supposed to provide the “final verdict,” or the “moral of the story” for the essay.
It is the writer’s last attempt at providing a memorable ending to the paper.
It explains why the topic is important and what the reader should learn from it.
A conclusion is not…

Only a summary of the paper’s main points
A paragraph so detailed is resembles a body paragraph
A paragraph that goes into a new or unrelated topic
Two or three sentences long (i.e. “two sentences plus a catchy quote.”
Example of good conclusions
Making a recommendation or offering a solution to the problem
In conclusion, social media is not only responsible in many cases for ruining a marriage, sometimes it is responsible for ruining the entire family balance. These social platforms affect the stability of the couple creating a detachment in the everyday life; once the stability is broken and the distance starts to increase, most likely a sense of jealousy will generate and possibly lead to infidelity. It is easy for many users to blame social media for the end of their marriage, and because of this, it is important to use social media for a limited time with non-malicious intentions. The responsible use of the platforms may protect marriages from being permanently damaged and give a couple the possibility to live a much happier life together.
Painting a picture of the future if the problem is solved or handled correctly
Modern technology continues to prove its merit within the medical field furthering our understanding of ADHD as well as providing invaluable resources available to the public and educational institutions in which to simplify the management of this troublesome condition. It’s used to aid children throughout their academic endeavors, which, will dictate how they enter society and cope with symptoms that will be with them until future technology can find a cure. Data collection will only grow as technology is further implemented in ADHD treatment and is the key to developing the individual treatment plans that will help future generations thrive. The benefits of modern technology towards adolescents suffering from ADHD are plentiful and may one day eliminate the condition. This future is welcomed and one with great promise.
Painting a picture of the future if the problem is NOT solved or handled correctly
All in all, technology is growing at an extraordinarily exponential pace allowing us to be more connected and in tune than ever before. However, while we grow more connected online, we grow more apart in real life which in turn hurts our social skills, disconnects us from each other, degrades our interpersonal skills, makes it easier to commit crimes, and pulls friends and family apart. With almost everything in life there is undoubtedly an equal number of cons.

Literary Analysis Essay Assignment A literary analysis .docxcroysierkathey
Literary Analysis Essay Assignment
A literary analysis essay typically requires you to write about the meaning you have inferred
from a piece of literature (e.g., a novel, film, play, poem, etc.). You are expected to have a
thesis and support it with evidence (examples) from the literary work. Typically, you’ll analyze
the idea or message, plot, characters, tone, use of symbolism, writing style, or any other
devices that the author has used. Analysis of a film or play might focus on visual effects,
lighting, sequencing or how an actor portrays a character.
In a literary analysis essay, you do not focus entirely on the plot. Rather, you look at how the
plot was designed, why it was developed, the choices an author made and whether these
choices are effective choices. Although some context may be needed so readers can
understand, you are not being asked to write a book report. The purpose is not to give a
summary of the plot to prove you have read and understood it. Instead, you will offer an idea
and present it through careful examination of the author’s or director’s choices. You are
expected to refer to portions of the text or film to support your ideas. The goal is to make
readers learn something new about the literary piece, or watch or read it with “new eyes.”
Here is a summary of a long, 15-page paper, “Gender Roles in Disney Films: Analyzing
Behaviors from Snow White to Simba,” written by a graduate student:
For this Assignment:
The purpose of this assignment is to help you develop your analytical skills, your ability to
support an idea with evidence from a text or image, and your ability to organize logically what
you want to say. With a peer partner, you will write a 500-word literary analysis essay in which
you compare/contrast TWO FILMS.
Choose your films and your topic carefully after brainstorming together. Later in the semester,
both of you will present your analysis to the class in a short presentation. When choosing a
topic,

Hearing & Eye Age-Related Diseases
Presbycusis, also known as age-related hearing loss, is a debilitating disease with a complicated etiology that affects tens of millions of people worldwide and roughly half of those over 65 in the United States (Say et al., 2021). The loss is usually bilateral, causing difficulty hearing high-pitched tones and conversational speech (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). The causes of age-related hearing loss are thought to be genetic and environmental. Men are more affected by this condition than women. This condition's origin is yet unknown.
Some signs and symptoms that could be seen in patients with this condition are not answering when spoken to, talking loudly, paying attention to the speaker's lips, turning up the radio or TV volume, putting one palm over one ear, and tilting the head to one side when someone is speaking (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). The causes of presbycusis are multifaceted. In addition to physiologic and anatomical alterations brought on by aging-related deterioration, genetic factors are among the additional contributing elements (Cheslock & De Jesus, 2022). It is believed that glutamate signaling, glucocorticoids, and sex hormones all contribute to it. Hearing loss occurs more frequently in postmenopausal women who use progestin and a combination of hormone replacement therapy. Presbycusis has also been linked to exposure to loud noises and ototoxic substances such as salicylates, loop diuretics, aminoglycosides, and some chemotherapeutic drugs. Ototoxicity has also been linked to certain occupational and environmental exposures to toxins such as toluene, styrene, lead, carbon monoxide, mercury, and other toxins (Cheslock & De Jesus, 2022). This problem has also been associated to a history of ear infections and the presence of several systemic disorders.
Studies aimed at establishing a clear association for the cause have not been successful. As a result, the diagnosis entails eliminating other potential causes of hearing loss, such as infections, head trauma, metabolic disorders, vascular diseases, and heart disease (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). It is important for nurses when caring for patients with this condition to speak clearly and use a normal tone of voice. Patients and their families need to be instructed on how to use and where to obtain assistive listening devices (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). Nurses must educate patients and family members that when using hearing aids, they need to perform daily listening and battery checks. These devices must be stored in a hearing aid drying container with batteries removed.
Vision is an important sense that is needed to complete ADLs. Age-related changes and macular or.

What We Can Afford” Poem By Shavar X. Seabrooks L.docxDustiBuckner14
“What We Can Afford”
Poem By: Shavar X. Seabrooks
Like the rice fields of Charleston, the wind blows limitlessly.
The slaves give peace to the land that hands they have touch.
In the mist of blood, sweat and tears, still the heartbeat sticks in the sweetgrass of mercy.
Gathered near the Stono River, they earned for freedom press against time which is not a
companion.
Fort Mose just in their reach, still time is not their companion.
Looking back to the Ancient Civilization, were Dark Skin People were King and Queens.
Wear Kenta cloths adorning the skin like silk.
And were the land being harvest for love and not for gain.
The children to grow and not wanting to be enslaved and the lips of the masters impales
the dreams.
Yet, the circle that remains the same, but the horizon is just to come.
The wind shall tell the truth and the African Experiences will be a drum of remembrance.

Haiku about Emmett Till
Just a young black boy
Stripped of all his life and dreams
Where is the justice
Cinquain about the Civil Rights Movement
A movement ignited by Parks
A peaceful dream promoted by Dr. King
An education organized by Clark
A call to let freedom ring
The first poem is about the murder of Emmett Till. Till’s tragic tale is described in the Eyes on the Prize:
Awakenings and in the study guide. On August 28, 1955, “Emmett Till, a black boy from Chicago visiting
his uncle Moses Wright in Mississippi, is murdered for inappropriately addressing a white woman (page
14).” Even though Till’s murderers eventually confessed to the crime, they were never charged for his
murder (because of the no double jeopardy clause in the fifth amendment of the Constitution). This is
one of many instances of injustice against African Americans in the south during the Civil Rights
Movement. However, even now in the 21st century, African Americans are still facing prejudices and
being killed by cops, the people who are supposed to protect them.
The second poet highlights three big names of the Civil Rights Movement, Rosa Parks, Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr, and Septima Clark. The Eyes on the Prize videos mention King a lot, because he was quite a
significant man, and The Awakenings and Ready from Within discusses Rosa Parks. Rosa Parks sparked
the Montgomery bus boycott by refusing to give up her seat to a white person. Septima Clark’s impact
on the Civil Rights Movement with her citizenship schools was the main topic of Ready from Within.
Clark played a crucial role in educating many African American.

Data science is a set of fundamental principles that guide the extraction of knowledge from data. Data mining is the extraction of knowledge from data via technologies that incorporate these principles.
Like many enterprises, Digital Diskus has many applications for the various processes that must be executed to run its business, from finance and accounting to sales, marketing, procurement, inventory, supply chain, and so forth. A great deal of data is generated across these systems. But, unfortunately, as a business grows into an enterprise, most of its business systems will be discreet. Getting a holistic view of the health of the business can be stymied by the organic growth of applications and data stores.

Figure 8.2 is a drill down view of the data gathering interactions of the business analytics system within the enterprise architecture. Is the visualization in Figure 8.2 perhaps a bit easier to understand? To reiterate, we are looking at the business analysis and intelligence system, which must touch almost every data gathering and transaction-processing system that exists in the internal network. And, as was noted, business analytics listens to the message bus, which includes messages that are sent from less trusted zones.

Figure 8.3 Business analytics system architecture.
As we move to system specificity, if we have predefined the relevant threats, we can apply the threats’ goals to the system under analysis. This application of goals leads directly on to the “AS” of ATASM: attack surfaces. Understanding your adversaries’ targets and objectives provides insight into possible attack surfaces and perhaps which attack surfaces are most important and should be prioritized.
It’s useful to understand a highly connected system like business analytics in situ, that is, as the system fits into its larger enterprise architectural context. However, we don’t yet have the architecture of the system itself. Figure 8.3 presents the logical components of this business analytics system.
There are five major components of the system:
1. Data Analysis processing
2. Reporting module
3. Data gathering module
4. Agents which are co-located with target data repositories
5. A management console

In this context, where several components share the same host, how would you treat the communications between them? Should.

Space ... the final frontier. So, as I am sure everyone knows, .docxDustiBuckner14
Space ... the final frontier. So, as I am sure everyone knows, the National Aeronautical Space Administration (NASA) is located right here in H-town. OK, well, technically in Clear Lake. One rarely thinks of space exploration as an extension of government, but remember, one of President John F. Kennedy's challenges promises to the nation was sending an American to the moon.
Well recently, with the call to put an astronaut on Mars by President George W. Bush, and with the founding of SpaceX by Elon Musk, the discussion about space exploration has re-emerged. I would like you to address the following debate. What extent should the government use tax-payer dollars to fund space exploration? Should we leave space travel up to the private sector, or should the government invest more NASA mission. Perhaps there is a healthy balance between the two? What are your thoughts.
Below are some recent (and old) articles about this subject. In addition, I have also linked a report that NASA contributed to about the benefits of space exploration, and a finding by the Congressional Budget Office suggesting how money could be spent elsewhere.
you must reference at least one article correctly in the body of the post (not simply cutting and pasting the URL after your post), respond respectfully to one-classmate, use college level grammar and sentence structure, and be at least 250 words long.

Part 1.
In business, "corporate culture" refers to the rules, customs, and beliefs that all employees follow and are taught (Wheelen, Thomas., & Hunger, J. David, 2014). However, in today's world, the CEO, CFO, and other top executives' actions and attitudes have a direct impact on the company's culture. FedEx has a culture that demonstrates to its employees and customers how much they are valued. FedEx prioritizes service, people, honesty, innovation, responsibility, safety, and loyalty (FedEx, 2019). FedEx understands the importance of a positive work environment and a strong corporate culture in order to achieve operational success and provide excellent customer service. As a result, FedEx has implemented a "People-Service-Profit strategy" (P-S-P) and continues to promote a high-performance culture. (FedEx, 2019). Frederick Smith, the company's current CEO and founder, came up with this idea because he believed that investing in employees would result in better work and, as a result, financial success. This philosophy emphasizes the importance of treating employees with respect and dignity, as well as rewarding team members based on how well they perform their duties.
FedEx believes that its employees are the best way to make big decisions, and it attributes its success to its innovative culture. Because service providers' employees are the ones who directly interact with customers, this philosophy is especially important in the service industry. Training, giving employees power, and providing incentives are all critical in a company whose culture is based on this philosophy (Peoplematters, 2019). FedEx Corporation's plan to make more money, in my opinion, is consistent with its core value of putting people first. People who are enthusiastic about their jobs are always more creative and productive. On the review site Glassdoor, current FedEx employees gave CEO Frederick Smith an 84% approval rating, and 73% said they would recommend working there to a friend (Glassdoor, 2019). FedEx is the company most likely to hire these individuals as a result of this. In addition, some FedEx freight drivers chose not to join a union in 2017, indicating a favorable work environment (Dcvelocity, 2017). FedEx Corporation employs approximately 300,000 people in over 250 countries and territories. As a result, there are numerous programs in place to thank employees for their efforts. This demonstrates how much FedEx cares about and values its employees.
There is a list of awards and recognition programs on the main website, including "The Humanitarian Award," "The Five Star," "Bravo Zulu," and "Purple Promise" (FedEx, 2019). A five-star rating is the highest you can achieve at FedEx. The manager gives the staff theater tickets and quick cash bonuses in the form of Bravo Zulu. Pilots, couriers, customer service representatives, and meteorologists are among those who benefit from the "purple promise.

THE RESEARCH PROPOSAL BUS8100 8
Chapter 2 - Literature Review
The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to examine whether relationships
exist among job performance, transformational leadership style, and employee turnover intention
in the United States. Interest grew in the past 30 years, combining transformational leadership
and employee turnover intention, based on the assumptions that employees are likely to be
influenced by their leader’s behavior (Gyensare et al., 2016). Gyensare et al. (2016) noted
transformational leadership style was a key variable in lowered employee turnover intention and
enhanced employee well-being. Buil et al. (2019) stated job performance was an organizational
benefit deriving from transformational leadership style.
This literature review was structured to provide key concepts and related factors to the
research variables. In the first section, the researcher defined job performance and measurements
related to this performance. This included the 360-feedback and performance appraisal. The next
section discussed and measured transformational leadership style followed by employee turnover
intention. The fourth section covered contrasting and supporting theories relative to my
theoretical framework. The final section entailed profitability and a discussion of the auto
manufacturing industry.
The existing research in the literature review focused on the relationships between the
variables of employee turnover intention, transformational leadership style, and job performance.
The top journals used include the International Journal of Academic Research in Business and
Social Sciences, International Journal of Productivity and performance management, Journal of
Managerial Psychology, International Journal of Business and Management, Journal of Human
Resources in Hospitality & Tourism, International Journal of Business Administration,
International Journal of Selection & Assessment, SAM advanced management journal, and
Journal of Applied Biobehavioral Research.
To locate research for this study, EbscoHosts and Education Resources Information
Center (ERIC) were used. The keywords used in the searches include employee turnover
intention, transformational leadership style, factors of employee turnover intention, job
performance impact, employee turnover and job performance, transformational and
transactional leadership style, the cost of employee turnover intention, LMX theory, measuring
job performance, employee turnover and profit, transformational leadership theory, and
measuring employee turnover intention.
The Automotive Industry
In the early days, the majority of U.S. manufacturing was centered in a small part of the
Northwest and eastern side of the Midwest (Krugman, 1991). The early automotive
manufacturers primarily put together the completed product by components and parts brought
from outside suppliers (Peterson, 1987). Henry Ford established a vision of the automobile by

DocumentaryFilm Analysis WorksheetInstructions for Document
1. Documentary/Film Analysis Worksheet
Instructions for Documentary/Film Critique
Students are required to compose one documentary/film
critiques on selected films viewed in class. Critiques should be
well written, following standard rules of grammar and
composition, and developing consistent, cohesive ideas over
several paragraphs. Much of your grade will be determined by
the clarity and correctness of your writing.
A critique, however, is somewhat different from a review. A
critique is an analytical essay on a documentary/film, in which
you give your opinion on the aesthetics, content, and quality of
the film and then give your reasons for your opinion. Do not
limit yourself to reacting to the film (“I loved it !”) and do not
use generic terms like “incredible,” “wonderful,” “marvelous,”
etc. Unlike a review, you assume that the reader has already
seen the movie; you do not need to give an extensive plot
summary; you do not need to hide plot information so as not to
spoil the surprise of the viewer; and you do need to be
consistently analytical and critical.
Use the following scale to rate documentaries/films:
****
Outstanding---It has ambitions to be more than an
entertainment. It has a strong storyline. It is not only well
made, but it has a strong emotional impact on the viewer. A
must-see documentary/film for everyone!
***
Good--- A documentary/film that does not have quite the same
quality, content, or emotional impact as the previous category.
It is interesting and does hold your attention. There are subjects
that come about that require more explanation, but overall, it
2. was well done.
**
Acceptable--- It may, however, be quite ordinary, there is really
no new information provided, and the documentary/film seems
to be all over the place. There is a clear bias that seems to be
representative of like-minded viewers. It is probably well made,
but has deficiencies in characterization, content, that are
obvious to the discerning viewer. Overall, it is worth watching
for a better understanding of the subject, however, it is not
considered “a must see.”
*
Poor---Storyline is predictable, no imagination, intended to be
offensive, poorly constructed; characters are superficial;
dialogue is confusing; the purpose of the documentary/film is
self-serving and provides no substance or educative value. In
fact, if this wasn’t required by the course, you would probably
walk out.
