What is the current form of government? Democracy? Dictatorship? Name of the current head of state, frequency of elections 3. Current population (as of 2011) 4. What percentage of the population resides in rural/urban areas? 5. Average life expectancy for all inhabitants: men and women. This paper is to be internally documented, using the APA style. It should have a cover page indicating title, course name, date of submission, the instructor’s name and the name of the team members. A Table of Contents should indicate the contributions made by each member of the team. It should also provide a works cited page. Papers not meeting all these criteria will automatically be marked down one letter grade. This paper will be presented and submitted on Week 5. Teams will present their reports based on the alphabetical rankings of their countries, and the presentation duties will be shared by all team members, using whatever instructional technology deemed appropriate. The reports will provide the foundation for the second part of the Third World Fair Project. ...

NOTE:
Because this course is extremely condensed into 40 days, I will be posting much of the material ahead of when it is due, for students to work through at their own pace; in other words, you can work ahead as you feel like it. There are certain pieces of material, from Unit Two forward, that will be added to both the
Course Documents
, where the assigned readings are, and
Discussion Board
, where focused questions and material will guide your responses. The materials will be added in time for use by the various intermediate deadlines. However, there are particular deadlines for completion of the discussion writing on the various units of material as well as the two papers that make up the grade, and students must pay close attention to these deadlines in order to complete the course.
Course Goals:
This course will examine the experience of sports and leisure for different groups of Americans (e.g., African-Americans, women, working class), from colonial times to the present but primarily focused on the 20th century. My goal is to introduce students to historical analysis and argument through the examination of the sports and leisure time activities that won increasing popularity among Americans from the late nineteenth to the late twentieth century. This course will incorporate analytical categories from social history (class, race, gender, ethnicity) as well as the frameworks used by cultural, economic, and political history. This course will thus involve students in gaining a better understanding of the relationships that sports and leisure have with the social, economic, cultural and political forces at work in the United States and the world. Students will appreciate the issues that have affected sports participation over the years, including racial and gender discrimination, class economics, and commercialization.
Students are expected to learn not only the basic data of American social history of sports but also to express that knowledge in oral and written argument that employs evidence to prove historical theses. Precise assignments for discussion are given at the end of this syllabus. Students will also be expected to use the Blackboard site for discussion. This course is thus NOT about player statistics, won-loss records, and/or fantasy leagues. It is about understanding the role sports has played in American society over time, and that is a serious historical inquiry.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:
1) Identify and analyze the changing meaning and significance of sports and leisure to American society and culture.
2) Discuss the major developments in sports as they were influenced by major social, economic, cultural and political forces in American history, and (in turn) how sports pa.
JustinLessonDraft Revised
Here are some reflections on your lesson planning and teaching experience:
- The amount of information presented was challenging for students to process. In the future, try to limit content and allow more time for discussion, questions, and hands-on activities.
- Presenting content through lecture alone may not engage all learners. Using a variety of teaching methods like small group work, videos, simulations, etc. could help keep students actively involved.
- Be flexible and willing to modify plans based on how students are responding. Shortening points and leaving time for questions showed good responsiveness.
- Technology like Kahoot can enhance learning if used appropriately. Consider saving it for later in the lesson once key concepts are introduced.
Final Project
This document outlines a three-week unit plan for a fifth grade class to research and learn about significant events and people in history. Students will interview someone about an important time in history and then research that era. They will utilize technology, books, and other materials to research and compile information for a presentation. Throughout the unit, students will participate in discussions, receive instruction on research and interview skills, work independently on their projects, and provide self and peer assessments. The goal is for students to understand the importance and significance of history.
Question Please answer the question presented below in at.docx
Question:
Please answer the question presented below in at least 500 ORIGINAL words. Answers should be
submitted as WORD DOCUMENTS to the appropriate and corresponding 'Critical Engagement Exercise 3'
drop box on this e-Learn course site no later than 11:59PM on this Monday, June 20.
NOTE: please read and understand the warning I posted in the News Item below about assignment
submissions. You have each and all been warned. If you need clarification about this assignment, then
please contact me before Friday at 12PM or visit my regularly scheduled office hours (Tues/Thurs 3:00-
4:30PM).
The question for this week is as follows:
What were some of the key problems facing the United States and the Early Republic following
independence? Use specific examples.
Warning:
For the most part, the assignments I received for Critical Engagement Exercise 1 were of decent quality--
-though I expect to see gradual improvements in each of your academic writing skills as we progress
through the semester based on my feedback regarding your work.
There were, however, enough violations of course policies to warrant this intervention on my part
before issuing the instructions for Critical Engagement Exercise 2.
Firstly, if you plagiarize anything in any of your assignments then you will automatically receive a "0-F"
grade for the assignment. If you plagiarize a second time on any of your assignments, then you will
automatically fail the entire course and be referred to the Dean of Students.
If you are not clear on what exactly plagiarism is or what constitutes it, then you should have read the
syllabus more thoroughly----as well as the Student Handbook here at TSU before becoming a student
here. Plagiarism violates international intellectual property and copyright laws---enforced by the
Executive Branch of the Federal Government of the United States, participating member countries of the
World Trade Organization (formerly GATT), and Interpol.
Secondly, some of you submitted a different assignment than the one announced for Critical
Engagement Exercise 1 under 'News' on the right side of the course homepage here on e-Learn. What
some of you decided to do was to get help from other students I have taught in past semesters; those of
you who did this, did the wrong assignment.
You will receive 0 credit for this assignment, and the Instructor is insulted and offended that you are
utilizing the e-Learn sites of former students rather than following the course content on your own e-
Learn course page for THIS SEMESTER. You should not be accessing other students' e-Learn pages, and
doing so will do you no good in this class. Simply put, it is a path to failure in and of itself.
Thirdly, you must submit all of your written assignments for this course as WORD DOCUMENTS and to
the appropriate dropbox as WORD DOCUMENTS. No exceptions will be allowed going forward. This is

Course description
This is an introductory course for students looking to establish a competence in international politics and international theory. This course examines in detail a wide range of issues, including: the bedeviling role of insurgencies, interstate and civil wars, terrorism, international efforts to contain violent conflict, military interventions, human rights, the problem of economic development, the functioning and effectiveness of international institutions, and the global environment. While theory will be touched on at some points, this course uses International Relations theory as a jumping off point to approach real-world problems and puzzles Those wishing to immerse themselves more deeply in the International Relations theory and academic development are encouraged to build on the understanding gained in this course by taking one of the theory seminars offered by the department.
Course Aims and Objectives
This course aims: … to introduce students to the study of International Politics, with an emphasis on historicizing current issues, ideas, and institutions in international affairs; … to encourage students to ask critical questions about the way in which issues and identities are represented by political elites, scholars, and the media; … to help students establish links between the ways we think (theory) about international affairs and their day--‐to--‐ day lives (practice) in a thoroughly, but unequally, globalized world; … to guide students in developing their own analyses of world politics --‐ to articulate their ideas in a coherent manner, supported by empirical evidence and consistent argument.
On completion of this class, students should be able:
…to demonstrate general knowledge of world politics and the connections between “the
World out there” and their own lives; … to identify key concepts and institutions of international affairs and how they have developed historically; … to describe and debate, in depth, the features of particular case studies examined in the class; … to gather, and critically evaluate, material from media, government and other sources of information; … to organize and synthesize large amounts of often contradictory and uneven source material; … to state and justify their opinions and analyses of world politics.
Grading
Your course evaluation will be based upon: map quizzes, mid-term exam, class participation, a portfolio, and a final exam. Here is the breakdown:
Map Quizzes (20%) 100 Points
Mid-term exam (20%) 100 points
Final Exam (20%) 100 points

This lesson plan outlines a 3-week project-based learning unit for 3rd grade students on the theme of "Communities in Our World." Students will be divided into groups representing different continents and research a country or region within that continent. They will create a travel brochure, virtual tour, or collage representing their assigned area. In their final presentations, students will role-play as tour guides leading their classmates on a virtual trip around the world. Throughout the unit, students will develop knowledge of geography, cultures, and collaboration skills while teachers assess learning with various rubrics and forms.
A Systematic Approach To Teaching Critical Thinking Through Debate
This document summarizes a study that used debates to teach critical thinking skills to English language learners in Japan. It describes a systematic 6-stage process for preparing and conducting debates that aligned with a taxonomy of critical thinking skills. Students took courses that guided them through clarifying issues, gathering information, evaluating sources, analyzing evidence, explaining conclusions, and self-assessing performances in debates about topics like media violence and social issues in Japan. Student feedback indicated they found the debates interesting and at an appropriately challenging difficulty level. The debates effectively developed students' cognitive and presentation skills for critical analysis.

Language Symposium 2012: Taking online research tasks to the conversational l...Language and Culture Learning Center
Presentation by Montserrat Mir of Illinois State University at the Language Symposium 2012, hosted at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC).
Advanced conversation classes and materials are built upon the assumption that intriguing and controversial topics are the key to get learners to speak. However, learners see most of these open-ended activities designed to stimulate conversation and discussion as simple answer the questions exercises. When students are asked to provide their opinion on a topic, they often lack information about that topic and this is the reason why these discussion/debate activities do not work. Research shows that exchange of information tasks elicit more production than any other types of tasks and thus, promotes interaction and language acquisition (Long, 1989; Ellis, 2000). The informational nature of communication needs to be exploited fully in conversation classes. In this presentation we will discuss a task based approach to enhance advanced conversation skills. In this approach students individually research topics of their choice which then are discussed and shared through task-oriented activities in the classroom. In that sense the exchange of information has a clear purpose since listeners in the conversation are learning new concepts or ideas and not simply personal opinions. In order to guide students in the completion of research activities, we provide templates which can be used with the different concrete themes chosen by students. Some of the benefits of these online research tasks include student motivation, control over own learning, amount of reading and content knowledge, and active speaking and listening.Regions of the United States
This document outlines a 7-day unit plan for a 2nd grade class on the regions of the United States. The unit includes 4 lessons: 1) an introduction where students label states on a map and learn there are 7 regions; 2) learning the names and characteristics of each region; 3) conducting research in groups on a assigned region; and 4) presenting their findings to the class through posters and a puzzle map activity. The lessons aim to help students understand the basic geography of the US by learning about its regions and the states within them.

Overview
Cultural exchanges in the work environment are complicated by their very nature. However, differences in race, ethnicity, class, gender, and religion can add to the complexity and further intensify even the most basic misunderstanding. In order for you to more fully comprehend this phenomenon, your first assignment (and the first of three for your course project) will begin in the context of the work place.
By successfully completing this assignment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assignment criteria:
Competency 1: Analyze the influence of culture on attitudes, values, perception, human behavior, and interpersonal relations.
Explain why an identified problem is relevant or important to fostering the understanding of diversity issues.
Competency 2: Analyze individual cultural competencies.
Identify individual cultural competencies.
Analyze one's own cultural knowledge, awareness, sensitivity, and actions.
Competency 3: Analyze culturally and developmentally appropriate intervention strategies.
Describe the essential elements of a cultural conflict.
Competency 4: Apply theories, methods, and research in cross-cultural awareness.
Describe a project research question.
Competency 5: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with expectations for members of the human services profession.
Communicate in a professional manner, using concise, well organized, and grammatically correct writing that incorporates appropriate APA style and conventions.

Anthropology 2 Spring 2020: M/W: 7-8:25 a.m. (Revised Online) Mr. Coltman
Course Syllabus: Cultural Anthropology
Course Description:
Through the comparative study of different cultures, anthropology explores fundamental questions
about what it means to be human. It seeks to understand how culture shapes societies and
individuals, from the smallest island in the South Pacific to the largest global metropolis, and affects
the way institutions work, from scientific laboratories to Christian mega-churches. This course will
provide a framework for analyzing diverse facets of human experience such as gender, ethnicity,
language, politics, economics, and art.
Course Requirements (Revised for Online):
Lecture: You are encouraged to attend and participate in online classroom sessions, as this is a lecture and discussion
course. This means that you should do the reading in advance and be prepared to be engaged in the course, even
though we are now online. If you are unable to attend the online lecture it will be recorded and will be available at your
convenience. You will be sent a link to the recorded lecture through Canvas Announcements.
Exams: There will be two exams, including the final, each worth 1/3 of your grade. Exam 1 and the Final will consist of
50 multiple-choice questions (25 from lecture and 25 from the text) and will be taken on Canvas. The final will be
cumulative in course materials, concepts, theorists, and theories.
The textbook and lectures: You are expected to read the textbook, which covers material related to the lecture. The
exams will require information that you will find in both the text and lecture, so you will also have to take careful notes.
The Essay: 1/3 of your grade will be earned from a critical-thinking essay. The requirements for the essay will be provided
to you. This paper will approximately 3-5 pages in length. The paper is due (approximately!) Wednesday, May 6th.

Abstract Comment by user: Double space between all lines of the manuscript. This includes the elimination of any extra spacing before or after the paragraph (APA Manual 5.03). The default setting in Microsoft Word is to add extra spacing after paragraphs. You can change this setting under the page layout tab in Microsoft Word.
Internet usage has skyrocketed in the past few decades, along with this increase comes the increase in internet shopping by consumers. This research examines the behaviors, motivations, and attitudes of this new form of consumer entity. Online consumer behavior has been studied for over 20 years and will undoubtedly be the source of many future researches as internet consumerism expands. This paper will examine the following research questions: (1) How do factors previously researched affect the online purchasing behavior of consumers and (2) what are the significant consumer behaviors both positive and negative that affect internet consumerism? By identifying these factors and variables, new strategies can be formulated and both consumer and supplier can gain knowledge and understanding of behaviors which exist. The purpose of this research paper is to integrate the varied research information together and draw coherent linkages to how consumer thoughts, attitudes and motivational behavior affect online buying, thus building a broader framework of analysis in which to build upon.

NOTE:
Because this course is extremely condensed into 40 days, I will be posting much of the material ahead of when it is due, for students to work through at their own pace; in other words, you can work ahead as you feel like it. There are certain pieces of material, from Unit Two forward, that will be added to both the
Course Documents
, where the assigned readings are, and
Discussion Board
, where focused questions and material will guide your responses. The materials will be added in time for use by the various intermediate deadlines. However, there are particular deadlines for completion of the discussion writing on the various units of material as well as the two papers that make up the grade, and students must pay close attention to these deadlines in order to complete the course.
Course Goals:
This course will examine the experience of sports and leisure for different groups of Americans (e.g., African-Americans, women, working class), from colonial times to the present but primarily focused on the 20th century. My goal is to introduce students to historical analysis and argument through the examination of the sports and leisure time activities that won increasing popularity among Americans from the late nineteenth to the late twentieth century. This course will incorporate analytical categories from social history (class, race, gender, ethnicity) as well as the frameworks used by cultural, economic, and political history. This course will thus involve students in gaining a better understanding of the relationships that sports and leisure have with the social, economic, cultural and political forces at work in the United States and the world. Students will appreciate the issues that have affected sports participation over the years, including racial and gender discrimination, class economics, and commercialization.
Students are expected to learn not only the basic data of American social history of sports but also to express that knowledge in oral and written argument that employs evidence to prove historical theses. Precise assignments for discussion are given at the end of this syllabus. Students will also be expected to use the Blackboard site for discussion. This course is thus NOT about player statistics, won-loss records, and/or fantasy leagues. It is about understanding the role sports has played in American society over time, and that is a serious historical inquiry.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:
1) Identify and analyze the changing meaning and significance of sports and leisure to American society and culture.
2) Discuss the major developments in sports as they were influenced by major social, economic, cultural and political forces in American history, and (in turn) how sports pa.
JustinLessonDraft Revised
Here are some reflections on your lesson planning and teaching experience:
- The amount of information presented was challenging for students to process. In the future, try to limit content and allow more time for discussion, questions, and hands-on activities.
- Presenting content through lecture alone may not engage all learners. Using a variety of teaching methods like small group work, videos, simulations, etc. could help keep students actively involved.
- Be flexible and willing to modify plans based on how students are responding. Shortening points and leaving time for questions showed good responsiveness.
- Technology like Kahoot can enhance learning if used appropriately. Consider saving it for later in the lesson once key concepts are introduced.
Final Project
This document outlines a three-week unit plan for a fifth grade class to research and learn about significant events and people in history. Students will interview someone about an important time in history and then research that era. They will utilize technology, books, and other materials to research and compile information for a presentation. Throughout the unit, students will participate in discussions, receive instruction on research and interview skills, work independently on their projects, and provide self and peer assessments. The goal is for students to understand the importance and significance of history.
Question Please answer the question presented below in at.docx
Question:
Please answer the question presented below in at least 500 ORIGINAL words. Answers should be
submitted as WORD DOCUMENTS to the appropriate and corresponding 'Critical Engagement Exercise 3'
drop box on this e-Learn course site no later than 11:59PM on this Monday, June 20.
NOTE: please read and understand the warning I posted in the News Item below about assignment
submissions. You have each and all been warned. If you need clarification about this assignment, then
please contact me before Friday at 12PM or visit my regularly scheduled office hours (Tues/Thurs 3:00-
4:30PM).
The question for this week is as follows:
What were some of the key problems facing the United States and the Early Republic following
independence? Use specific examples.
Warning:
For the most part, the assignments I received for Critical Engagement Exercise 1 were of decent quality--
-though I expect to see gradual improvements in each of your academic writing skills as we progress
through the semester based on my feedback regarding your work.
There were, however, enough violations of course policies to warrant this intervention on my part
before issuing the instructions for Critical Engagement Exercise 2.
Firstly, if you plagiarize anything in any of your assignments then you will automatically receive a "0-F"
grade for the assignment. If you plagiarize a second time on any of your assignments, then you will
automatically fail the entire course and be referred to the Dean of Students.
If you are not clear on what exactly plagiarism is or what constitutes it, then you should have read the
syllabus more thoroughly----as well as the Student Handbook here at TSU before becoming a student
here. Plagiarism violates international intellectual property and copyright laws---enforced by the
Executive Branch of the Federal Government of the United States, participating member countries of the
World Trade Organization (formerly GATT), and Interpol.
Secondly, some of you submitted a different assignment than the one announced for Critical
Engagement Exercise 1 under 'News' on the right side of the course homepage here on e-Learn. What
some of you decided to do was to get help from other students I have taught in past semesters; those of
you who did this, did the wrong assignment.
You will receive 0 credit for this assignment, and the Instructor is insulted and offended that you are
utilizing the e-Learn sites of former students rather than following the course content on your own e-
Learn course page for THIS SEMESTER. You should not be accessing other students' e-Learn pages, and
doing so will do you no good in this class. Simply put, it is a path to failure in and of itself.
Thirdly, you must submit all of your written assignments for this course as WORD DOCUMENTS and to
the appropriate dropbox as WORD DOCUMENTS. No exceptions will be allowed going forward. This is

Course description
This is an introductory course for students looking to establish a competence in international politics and international theory. This course examines in detail a wide range of issues, including: the bedeviling role of insurgencies, interstate and civil wars, terrorism, international efforts to contain violent conflict, military interventions, human rights, the problem of economic development, the functioning and effectiveness of international institutions, and the global environment. While theory will be touched on at some points, this course uses International Relations theory as a jumping off point to approach real-world problems and puzzles Those wishing to immerse themselves more deeply in the International Relations theory and academic development are encouraged to build on the understanding gained in this course by taking one of the theory seminars offered by the department.
Course Aims and Objectives
This course aims: … to introduce students to the study of International Politics, with an emphasis on historicizing current issues, ideas, and institutions in international affairs; … to encourage students to ask critical questions about the way in which issues and identities are represented by political elites, scholars, and the media; … to help students establish links between the ways we think (theory) about international affairs and their day--‐to--‐ day lives (practice) in a thoroughly, but unequally, globalized world; … to guide students in developing their own analyses of world politics --‐ to articulate their ideas in a coherent manner, supported by empirical evidence and consistent argument.
On completion of this class, students should be able:
…to demonstrate general knowledge of world politics and the connections between “the
World out there” and their own lives; … to identify key concepts and institutions of international affairs and how they have developed historically; … to describe and debate, in depth, the features of particular case studies examined in the class; … to gather, and critically evaluate, material from media, government and other sources of information; … to organize and synthesize large amounts of often contradictory and uneven source material; … to state and justify their opinions and analyses of world politics.
Grading
Your course evaluation will be based upon: map quizzes, mid-term exam, class participation, a portfolio, and a final exam. Here is the breakdown:
Map Quizzes (20%) 100 Points
Mid-term exam (20%) 100 points

A Systematic Approach To Teaching Critical Thinking Through Debate
This document summarizes a study that used debates to teach critical thinking skills to English language learners in Japan. It describes a systematic 6-stage process for preparing and conducting debates that aligned with a taxonomy of critical thinking skills. Students took courses that guided them through clarifying issues, gathering information, evaluating sources, analyzing evidence, explaining conclusions, and self-assessing performances in debates about topics like media violence and social issues in Japan. Student feedback indicated they found the debates interesting and at an appropriately challenging difficulty level. The debates effectively developed students' cognitive and presentation skills for critical analysis.

Language Symposium 2012: Taking online research tasks to the conversational l...Language and Culture Learning Center
Presentation by Montserrat Mir of Illinois State University at the Language Symposium 2012, hosted at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC).
Advanced conversation classes and materials are built upon the assumption that intriguing and controversial topics are the key to get learners to speak. However, learners see most of these open-ended activities designed to stimulate conversation and discussion as simple answer the questions exercises. When students are asked to provide their opinion on a topic, they often lack information about that topic and this is the reason why these discussion/debate activities do not work. Research shows that exchange of information tasks elicit more production than any other types of tasks and thus, promotes interaction and language acquisition (Long, 1989; Ellis, 2000). The informational nature of communication needs to be exploited fully in conversation classes. In this presentation we will discuss a task based approach to enhance advanced conversation skills. In this approach students individually research topics of their choice which then are discussed and shared through task-oriented activities in the classroom. In that sense the exchange of information has a clear purpose since listeners in the conversation are learning new concepts or ideas and not simply personal opinions. In order to guide students in the completion of research activities, we provide templates which can be used with the different concrete themes chosen by students. Some of the benefits of these online research tasks include student motivation, control over own learning, amount of reading and content knowledge, and active speaking and listening.Regions of the United States
This document outlines a 7-day unit plan for a 2nd grade class on the regions of the United States.

Internet usage has skyrocketed in the past few decades, along with this increase comes the increase in internet shopping by consumers. This research examines the behaviors, motivations, and attitudes of this new form of consumer entity. Online consumer behavior has been studied for over 20 years and will undoubtedly be the source of many future researches as internet consumerism expands. This paper will examine the following research questions: (1) How do factors previously researched affect the online purchasing behavior of consumers and (2) what are the significant consumer behaviors both positive and negative that affect internet consumerism? By identifying these factors and variables, new strategies can be formulated and both consumer and supplier can gain knowledge and understanding of behaviors which exist. The purpose of this research paper is to integrate the varied research information together and draw coherent linkages to how consumer thoughts, attitudes and motivational behavior affect online buying, thus building a broader framework of analysis in which to build upon.

Introduction
Coffee has become an integral part of the lives of numerous people. In 1971, Starbucks coffee opened its first coffee shop in the Pike Place Market in Seattle, Washington. Now, according to research “Starbucks Corporation is the leading retailer, roaster and brand of specialty coffee in the world, with more than 6,000 retail locations in North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and the Pacific Rim” (www.investor.starbucks.com). Starbucks aims to be the consumer’s favorite coffee shop and to achieve this the company focused on customer satisfaction as well as company advancement. Therefore, it is important to act based on what is written in Starbucks mission, value and vision statement, “To inspire and nurture the human spirit-one person, one cup, and one neighborhood at a time” (www.starbucks.com).
A review of Starbucks financial reports has identified an increase in revenue over the past few years. However, this increase in revenue doesn’t account for the increase in profits. The profit increase is not as high as it could be due to external factors such as other coffee shops and the increase in amount of competition. This report aims to identify the different internal and external environment factors attributing to the changes in Starbucks external environment by utilizing several different analyses.
SWOT Analysis
Strengths
Starbucks possesses several main strengths including their high visibility being located in high traffic areas, quality of service and products and their established brand loyalty. Starbucks remains an established leader being the number one known coffee house in the world while possessing a competent workforce, providing quality service, and continuing financial soundness. They also are known for their strong internal and external relationships with their suppliers.
Weakness
Weaknesses that Starbucks must address include: Product affordability and pricing, coffee beans price is the major influence over the firms profits, maintaining the positive public opinion of their products, avoiding any negative publicity, and remaining connected to their customers. Starbucks must also consider the fact they have expanded domestically and internationally resulting in saturation of the markets. They are also a non-smoking facility alienating some customers from purchasing coffee or other products from their store.
Opportunities
Opportunities include the ability for Starbucks to enter into different and new markets,
partnership opportunities with businesses, growing acceptance and customer satisfaction, and increase different product offerings. Starbucks must strive to continue expanding their products and food service to remain competitive and reach other consumers. Another option would be for Starbucks to allow consumers to order t ...

Concert Paper Guidelines
Instructions
1) Choose. Pick a classical music concert from the list provided on Blackboard. Sign up and buy tickets.
2) Research. Using reputable sources, learn about the composers and music featured at the concert. I
recommend searching Google for program notes from major orchestras.
3) Write. Write a typed, double-spaced, 2 -3 page research paper, including properly formatted citations
using APA, MLA, or Chicago style. This must be done before you attend the concert.
4) Cite. Cite your sources using in-text citations. Include a works cited list with full citations using MLA,
APA, or Chicago. If you don’t know how to do this, read this.
5) Submit. Turn in your research paper under the “concerts” tab in Blackboard 2 days before the concert
date. It will be checked for plagiarism.
6) Go. Plan ahead. Dress appropriately. Get to your concert on time. If you’re late, you might not get in.
7) Listen. Use active listening during the concert. (See “at the concert” below.)
8) Smile. Take a selfie or have someone take a picture of you that clearly shows that you were at the
concert. In the lobby during intermission is a good time for this! Save your ticket and program.
9) Interview. Talk to someone at the concert. Ask them why they came and what they thought.
10) Write. Add a “part two” to your research paper. This second part should be a typed, double-spaced, 2-3
page reaction paper to your concert. Talk about what you thought, show off your active listening skills,
and include the results of your interview.
11) Add. Add your concert picture to the last page of your paper. If you don’t have this, I can’t accept the
paper for credit. Staple your ticket to your paper.
12) Submit. Turn in a hard copy of your complete paper (research part AND reaction part with picture and
ticket) in class on or before the due dates indicated.
At The Concert: Active Listening
Choose one piece from your concert to analyze. Identify the meter, texture, and two other musical elements.
Reflect on the music. What emotions do you get from that piece? Does it spark anything in your imagination?
Does it remind you of anything? What is it about the music that creates those feelings and ideas?
Interview a fellow attendee after the show or during intermission. Ask why they came and what they thought.
WARNING
DO NOT OVER-USE DIRECT QUOTATIONS. If your paper has more than 50 words that are directly quoted, I will
return the paper to you, ungraded. Quotes can be useful, but you have to know when and how to use them!
Blend your quotes within your narrative. Paraphrase when appropriate. Read this.
DO NOT PLAGIARIZE. All sources, even if they are only alluded to or paraphrased, must be cited.

Discussion and Review: The textbook definition of a mineral is “a homogeneous,
naturally occurring, solid substance with a definable chemical composition and an
internal structure characterized by an orderly arrangement of atoms in a crystalline
structure” (from Earth; Portrait of a Planet; Stephen Marshak (Norton, 2005).
A crystal grown in a lab is not a true mineral since it did not form by geologic processes.
However, crystals grown in a lab are virtually identical to true minerals in many other

aspects: they are solid, inorganic, homogeneous, and have a definite chemical
composition and an ordered structure.
By growing crystals in a laboratory setting you will be able to investigate the different
properties that define a mineral. In addition, growing synthetic minerals can offer insight
into the factors that affect the crystal growing process in a true geologic setting. By
“watching” your crystals grow, you’ll be able to better understand how crystal faces

ExplanationMaster Honey is a franchise-style company that sel.docx
Explanation:
Master Honey is a franchise-style company that sells a variety of products derived from raw honey harvested from both local and international bee-farms, called apiaries. Our company was established in 1988 by its founder, Sergio Saladrigas, back when honey was a booming industry, and its business was conducted based on quality rather than quantity. With this philosophy in mind, Master Honey has created a culture of good quality work with competitive pricing. Since its creation, Master Honey has had a successful expansion throughout most of Central and South-Florida in the form of two different types of establishments for retail selling that have made the brand differentiate itself from the competition:
For rather big retail space, Master Honey developed a trademarked concept for a retail-store called “Honey Caves”. Usually placed in malls and around touristic areas, Honey Caves are stores of 1,000-1,500 squared feet that offer the whole catalog of Mater Honey’s products. The product catalog includes:

The honey caves have a specific and trademarked design that makes customers feel “like a bee in a hive”. The temperature is set at a low 72 degrees Fahrenheit with low light, and with a constant and subtle bee sound. In addition, the shelves are designed to look like a hive, with a series of hexagonally shaped boxes that designed to be piled together. This gives the shop managers freedom to change the setting of the store with ease and freedom of choice. Furthermore, the stores offer samples from all of our different products so the customers can see, feel, smell and taste the quality that differentiates our product. Also, every single one of our franchised Honey Caves has a large table in the middle of the store in a hexagonal shape displaying many large and artisanal-looking bottles that carry all of the honey types that we offer (that way, if a certain type of honey is not in store, it can still be shipped). The first bottle on each line contains a pump from which the customer can serve previously measured quantities in a small sample cup, and taste the differences in flavor and texture among all honeys from different flowers. The same technique is used with our soaps by providing 3 to 7 sinks for our customers to try the soaps, and realize its unique smell and smoothness. This type of store look like:
For the smaller stores, of about 600-800 squared feet, Master Honey has created another trademarked store des ...

Exploring Music
Extra Credit #2
Due November 6 in class
In Germany, the 19th century was known as the “Age of Song”. For romantic composers, fusing literature with music represented artistic perfection. The Lied (pronounced “leet”) blended German poetry with piano collaboration. Lieder represent an intimate genre of music utilizing a solo singer partnered with piano. In most cases, the piano acts as more than mere accompaniment as it is able to musically enhance the text, depict moods and atmospheres, and in some cases represent a character in the poem.
For this assignment you will choose any threeLieder and write a 2-3 page paper (double spaced, 12 point font with 1 inch margins) based on the following guidelines to include in your paper:
1. Read the translation of the poetry and establish your own interpretation. Are there any words or phrases that lend themselves to musical depiction? If you were the composer how might you musically depict words or phrases or the mood/ atmosphere of the piece using only one singer and a piano?
2. Listen to the Lied and follow along with the translation. How does you analysis from Question 1 differ or parallel the composer’s interpretation?
3. Pay particular attention to the relationship between the voice, text, and piano keeping in mind the piano offers more than just harmonic support. Provide examples of how the piano enhances the text, creates a mood or atmosphere, or depicts a character from the poem.
4. Does the musical and vocal setting suit the poetry? Explain.
5. Is the setting strophic or through-composed? How does this affect the Lied?
Below are YouTube links to each Lied. Translations of the text are available in the Extra Credit no. 2 folder; print them out for your convenience if you wish.

Explanations / 6.1 Qualities of Explanations Questions: 0 of 3 complete (0%) | 0 of 2 correct (0%)
Qualities of Explanations
An explanation is a statement that provides a reason for why or how something became the way it is. Arguments present a conclusion that's presumably new to you and then support this conclusion with evidence that you're likely to believe. Explanations work the other way around: they start with a conclusion that you likely believe (e.g., the sky is blue) and then offer an explanation for why that is so (e.g., because God is a UNC fan).
We will be looking specifically at causal explanations—that is, explanations in which you suggest that a particular physical or behavioral phenomenon is the result of another event.
Situation
Explanation
Traffic on a Saturday
There must be a football game today.
Most explanations start as theories. It can be challenging to fight the human impulse to pick the first theory that comes to mind and stop there, but what are the odds that the first thing you conceive of is in fact the best possible explanation?
Situation
Explanation
Traffic on a Saturday
Perhaps there's a concert today?
Maybe an art festival?
Or possibly an accident up ahead?
With a little imagination, you can come up with a seemingly unlimited number of theories, but at some point you've likely exhausted all the plausible explanations.
Situation
Explanation
Traffic on a Saturday
Perhaps a new IKEA has been built without my hearing anything about it, and all these people are headed to the grand opening.
As with all critical thinking, you'll need some judgment here. Discard the implausible theories (at least initially) and give fair consideration to all the reasonable ones:
· State your theory clearly (make a hypothesis).
· Consider possible alternatives.
· Look at the evidence.
· Evaluate the theory.
Sometimes the facts make the explanation quite clear:
I can see a train moving through an intersection several hundred yards ahead. That explains why traffic isn't moving.
Other times, you'll need to employ inductive reasoning to establish the most likely cause:
I can't see the tracks from here, but I drive through here every Saturday morning and usually a train was responsible for traffic being stalled. So it's probably a train.
We are presented with many such explanations on a daily basis.
Why is this webpage not loading?Why are sales down for last quarter?Why is my spouse not speaking to me?
As you consider potential explanations, keep the following standards in mind.
Consistency
First, is it internally consistent or does it contradict itself?
Second, is it externally consistent? Could this explanation effectively and fully account for whatever it's supposed to explain?
A good theory should be compatible with what we already know about how the world works. This is a problem with many paranormal theories—they go against accepted scientific fact. If the theory contradicts established knowledge, the burden of proof is on the new t ...

Overview of professionals
Maria Theresa Redaniel, Ph.D.
Suicide prevention specialist who’s main focus is finding ways to prevent suicide cases within local communities.
She is looking to branch out from the community sector to further her expertise on a federal and state vocation.
Received her master’s from the University of Nebraska in Community Development.
Michael Bauer, M.D., Ph.D.
Mental health profession with interest in suicide risk assessments, homicide and product liability especially in relation to psychotropic drugs.
He has extensive background in the field and wishes to further his resume by succeeding as a mentor to upcoming peers in the field.
Graduated top of his class from the University of Illinois 1965.
Suicide and prevention
Effective protective care is essential to suicide prevention.
If you are in crisis, call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the united states (AFSP, 2014). And the third leading cause among youth and young adults (Wharff, Ross, & Lambert, 2014)
Research shows 90% of those who have died by suicide had a potentially treatable mental illness (AFSP, 2014).
Prevention starts with awareness and education.
Risk Factors may include mental disorder, previous attempts, family history, serious medical condition or pain. These factors combined with environmental stimuli increase chances of suicide and suicide attempts (Carlborg, Winnerback, Jonsson, Jokinen & Nordstrom, (2010).
Research
Maria’s focus has been in the community prevention. The barriers of suicide documentation in the Philippines has encouraged her research in using psychological autopsy’s to evaluate a course of intervention (AFSP, 2014). Psychological autopsies have been used to present evidence of mental disorders present in those who died from suicide based on a collection of interviews and reports to dictate what they may have thought (Hjelmeland, Dieserud, Dyregrov, Knizek & Leenaars, 2012).
Michael has focused his research in the use of pharmacology in suicide prevention. Giving participants a prescribed amount of lithium has shown great strides in lowering future suicide attempts and depressive behaviors (ASFP, 2014).
Comparison
Maria has strong views in behavior aspect of study. She has culminated research of behaviors related to mental disorders and compared them to suicide reports made from informant interviews and medical documents. She uses such information to hopefully reduce the suicide rates in the community by early diagnosis and treatment prevention.
Michael uses his successful career in clinical psychology to establish the benefits of treating mental disorders to prevent suicides and suicidal behaviors. He focuses his research to provide evidence of pharmacology on disorders. His goal it to use such evidence to reduce thoughts of suicide and attempts.

Leadership is:
Are leader’s born or made?
Leader traits – the trait approach is the oldest leadership perspective and was dominant for several decades. The perspective is that some personality characteristics – many of which a person need not be born with but can strive to acquire distinguish effective leaders from other people.
Drive, which refers to a set of characteristics that reflect a high level of effort. It includes high need for achievement, constant striving for improvement, ambition, energy, tenacity (persistence in the face of obstacles), and initiative.
Leadership motivation – great leaders not only have drive, they want to lead.
Integrity is the correspondence between actions and words. Honesty and credibility are especially important.
Self-confidence is important because the leadership role is challenging, and setbacks are inevitable.
Knowledge of the business, industry, company, and technical matters.
The most important personal skill, according to the text, the ability to perceive the needs and goals of others and to adjust one’s personal leadership approaches accordingly.
B. Leader Behaviors
1. Leadership behaviors – the behavioral approach attempts to identify what good leaders do. Three general categories of leadership behavior are: (Figure 12.2)
a. Task performance behaviors are the leader’s efforts to insure that the work unit or organization reaches its goals.
i. This dimension is sometimes referred to as:
concern for production
directive leadership
initiating structure or closeness of supervision.
ii. It includes a focus on:
work speed

Explain how the Kluckhohn–Strodtbeck and the Hofstede framework can be used to analyze a culture. Are the Kluckhohn-Strodtbeck and Hofstede frameworks useful for understanding subcultures? Why or why not?
If your international firm were doing business in Asia, is there anything that your company could do to ease the tensions these cultures are experiencing? Be specific.
In your opinion, is globalization among the causes of the increasing incidence of divorce, crime, and drug abuse in Asia? Why or why not?
Broadly defined, Asia comprises more than 60 percent of the world’s population— a population that practices Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, and numerous other religions. Thus, do you think it is possible to carry on a valid discussion of “ Asian” values? Why or why not?
Consider the following statement: “ Economic development and capitalism require a certain style of doing business in the twenty- first century. The sooner Asian cultures adapt the better.” Do you agree or disagree? Explain.

HariboProblem: Not serving $2 billion subcultureCulprit: Pork-based gelatin in the candies

*Although Haribo was selling over 100 million gummi candies a day worldwide, it was not meeting the needs of a global subculture worth $2 billion a year.Muslims and Jews who adhere to a strict religious diet could not eat the candies because of the pork-based substance that gives the candy its sticky, rubbery feel.So, Haribo developed a special candy for this market by replacing the pork-based gelatin with a bacteria-based compound found in salad dressings and sauces.Haribo now has a Jewish rabbi and a Muslim cleric oversee production to ensure that it adheres to their religious customs.

Exploring Innovation in Action Power to the People – Lifeline Ene.docx
Exploring Innovation in Action: Power to the People – Lifeline Energy
Trevor Baylis was quite a swimmer in his youth, representing Britain at the age of 15. So it wasn’t entirely surprising that he ended up working for a swimming pool firm in Surrey before setting up his own company. He continued his swimming passion – working as a part-time TV stuntman doing underwater feats – but also followed an interest in inventing things. One of the projects he began work on in 1991 was to have widespread impact despite – or rather because of – being a ‘low-tech’ solution to a massive problem.
Having seen a documentary about AIDS in Africa he began to see the underlying need for something which could help communication. Much of the AIDS problem lies in the lack of awareness and knowledge across often isolated rural communities – people don’t know about causes or prevention of this devastating disease. And this reflects a deeper problem – of communication. Experts estimate that less than 20% of the world’s population have access to a telephone, while even fewer have a regular supply of electricity, much less television or Internet access. Very low literacy levels exclude most people from reading newspapers and other print media.
Radio is an obvious solution to the problem – but how can radio work when the receivers need power and in many places mains electricity is simply non-existent. An alternative is battery power – but batteries are equally problematic – even if they were of good quality and freely available via village stores people couldn’t afford to buy them regularly. In countries where $1 a day is the standard wage, batteries can cost from a day’s to a week’s salary. The HIV/AIDS pandemic also means that household incomes are under increased pressure as earners become too ill to work while greater expenditure goes towards healthcare, leaving nothing for batteries.
What was needed was a radio which ran on some different source of electricity. In thinking about the problem Baylis remembered the old-fashioned telephones of pre-war days which had wind-up handles to generate power. He began experimenting, linking together odd items such as a hand brace, an electric motor and a small radio. He found that the brace turning the motor would act as a generator that would supply sufficient electricity to power the radio. By adding a clockwork mechanism he found that a spring could be wound up – and as it unwound the radio would play. This first working prototype ran for 14 minutes on a two minute wind. Trevor had invented a clockwork (wind-up) radio! As a potential solution to the communication problem the idea had real merit. The trouble was that, like thousands of entrepreneurs before him, Trevor couldn’t convince others of this. He spent nearly four years approaching major radio manufacturers like Philips and Marconi but to no avail. But luck often plays a significant part in the innovation story – and this was no exception. The idea came to the attenti ...
Experiment 8 - Resistance and Ohm’s Law 8.1 Introduction .docx
Experiment 8 - Resistance and Ohm’s Law
8.1 Introduction
In previous experiments, we have investigated electric charges largely under stationary conditions. These
studies were useful in order to illustrate concepts such as the electric potential and the electric field, and
forms the foundation needed to further our understanding of electricity and electrical circuits. In contrast
to electrostatics (charges confined to be stationary), the field of electricity deals with the flow (induced
movement) of electrical charges. Due to its many uses, most individuals knowingly or unknowingly have
a daily reliance on electricity. It is especially essential, in: (1) the distribution of energy, and (2) the
processing of information. To enable this, electricity must be handled in circuits, a closed loop of
conducting wire connecting power plant with individual homes, and businesses. To appreciate this
phenomena, it is useful to investigate various aspects of simple circuits and the various laws that may
govern them.
8.2 Objective
1. To verify Ohm’s Law
2. To use Ohm’s law to determine the resistance of a light source.
8.3 Theory
Our initial investigations will be guided by Ohm’s law, which postulates that the relationship between
current flow I, potential difference V, and resistance R for certain materials will observe the following
mathematical relationship, given a constant temperature constraint:
…………. 1RV = I
These materials are called Ohmic conductors, equation 1 implies that the ratio of voltage to current for
these materials is constant. Manufactured resistors can be considered as such, but other components such
as semiconductor diodes, filaments, and LEDs are non ohmic. In this experiment, we will verify Ohm’s
law by assessing whether it holds for a set resistance (typical color coded resistor). Further, we will apply
this to ascertain the resistance of a light source.
8.4 Apparatus
Variable DC voltage source, color coded resistor, (2) multimeters, connecting wires, light source
8.5 Procedure
Part A Verifying Ohm’s Law
1. You will be given a particular colour coded resistor from the set; use this and the other apparatus
items to set up the circuit as shown in figure 1 below.
Figure 1
2. Adjust DC voltage source so that a relatively small voltage reading is seen across the resistor R.
Record this voltage reading, and the electrical current reading ...
Experimental Essay The DialecticThe purpose of this paper is to.docx
Experimental Essay: The Dialectic
The purpose of this paper is to experiment with a style of essay that you’ve probably never written before: The Dialectic. We’ll be testing Foucault’s idea about polemics in order to push ourselves to consider and explore multiple conflicting perspectives in a single paper.
The basic premise is that you will write a series of thesis, antithesis arguments - point and counterpoint paragraphs. You will first argue a side of a discussion and then take up the opposing side, eloquently crafting a rigorous response to your own ideas.
Your essay should explore the concepts we will be discussing in class, so if you’ve been doing the homework, you already have some arguments to work from. If you would like something more specific to work from, the Justice discussions and comments that your peers will be posting on course studio are a good start. In addition to this, you should also read through your notes from our class discussion about the predictions from the Constitutional Convention 1787. Can we make an argument that the poor indirectly sell their votes to the rich? Does the wealthiest class of America really dictate society? Do the poor impose upon the freedom and the property of the rich through voting? In what ways can private interests manipulate public opinions and widely held beliefs? Who is influencing whom? Who is responsible for the actions and behaviors of masses and of individuals?
This dialectic should not look like the typical childhood debate: “YES. NO. YES. NO.” You should not simply state a side and then write the inverse. Instead, you should invent the most compelling defense for both sides. Where students misstep here is in the unfortunate habit of writing weak counterpoints - something “stupid” that’s easy to rip apart. Right? We’ve all done this in essays that require counterpoints. Why that doesn’t work for this essay is that it would essentially mean that HALF of your essay is intentionally “stupid”... This doesn’t make for a good college paper. Instead, you must argue both sides so well that the reader cannot tell which is actually your own position.
To build this paper over the next two weeks, you should be exploring as many points (and counterpoints) as you can imagine in your homework assignments. In your final essay, I would like you to try to compile what you believe to be your best ideas.
This paper cannot be a summary - you should not simply have a series of points restating and summarizing the arguments that you’ve pulled from the various texts. Instead, you should use what you think is interesting from the text as a way to launch into a discussion of your own brilliant ideas.
Format: double-spaced, times new roman typeface, 12-point font, with 1 inchmargins.
The paper must be 1000 - 1400 words in length.
Peer Review Draft Due : May 27
Final Draft Due : May 29 via email by 11:54pm
REFLECTION PIECE: You will also be writing a 300 word reflection on your writing. In this piece you sho ...
