Section D: Project Overview
Needs Assessment and Business Strategy
Leadership & Management (Project Organization & Leadership Style)
Section E: Conclusion
Section F: Lessons Learned Report
Please review the rubric for this presentation to ensure all requirements are accomplished with your presentation. This presentation will be submitted by the end of week 7.
You will automatically be assigned to two other presentations to conduct your peer reviews that will be due by Saturday of Week 8.
Note!
The video or presentation will involve a process-orientated task by analyzing the process of completing the project, analyzing the results of the project, and evolving transformation of the results and issues of the project into a summary of the project along with a lessons-learned report (Processes). The collection of data from performing the project would be conducted by the student, which will be analyzed and synthesized. The student through whatever means that is effective that can include Excel® and/or Microsoft® Project® will transform this data into a final management report (Data). After using tools such as Excel® and/or Project®, the student will use a microphone to create narration for a slide presentation via PowerPoint® with automatic transitions, Movie Maker, PowerPoint® Video Tool, or other such presentation/video tools available to the student. Either the PowerPoint® or resulting MP4 video will be embedded to a discussion thread for asynchronous discussion activity (Devices). Finally, a peer review process will follow the submission of the presentation that provides an integral network of outsiders.

IT 700 Capstone Component 2: IT Project Report Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: For your IT project report, the second of three capstone components, you will imagine that the key stakeholders for whom you wrote your proposal
gave you the go-ahead to implement your information technology solution to the problem you identified. You have designed and developed your project
solution, and now you must report to the stakeholders.
In other words, for this capstone component, you will design and develop your project solution and then report on it. If you are able to implement your solution,
include a summary of your implementation and testing in your report. If you are not able to implement your solution, you may develop a model, simulation,
prototype, or proof of concept as an alternative to developing a fully implemented project. In this case, in your report you should include a plan for
implementation and testing.
Your report must provide clear evidence that your project was implemented and tested (or is implementable and testable). This can be achieved by documenting
a demonstration of the project in use or documenting an explanation of the model, simulation, or prototype. Consider using video or screenshots to
demonstrate and explain your project. If the implemented project is to be supplied to the instructor, you could provide a user manual that explains how to
install, configure, and run the software. You are encouraged to submit artifacts of the project including diagrams, software applications, database designs,
process documents, etc. Make sure to include clear instructions for accessing and using these artifacts. The design and development of your project solution
should demonstrate professional-level knowledge and skills.
Your project report should include at least one recommendation for future enhancements. Explain what you might add to the project if you had more resources?
What risk(s) would you need to consider before the enhancement was implemented at some future point in time? What would have to happen first before the
future enhancement was even considered seriously?
You will submit drafts of this component in Modules Four, Five, Six, Seven, and Eight. The final component is due in Milestone Nine.
The following sections are required in your project report (though you are not limited to including only these sections):
1. Project Design: Analyze the problem that you have identified and explain why the problem is significant. [Drafted in Modules Four and Eight]
2. Project Implementation: If you implemented your project, describe the implementation. If your project was not implemented, how would you
implement it? As you work on the project each module, the status of the project will be updated in this section. Describe the status of the
implementation to date. [Drafted in Modules Five, Six, and Eight]
3. Project Test Plans and Results: If you implemented and tested your project, describe how yo ...
A project is defined as a collection of related activities with clear goals and deliverables to be completed within a defined timeline. It has a project manager responsible for all aspects including tasks, budget, and quality. The key stages of a project are planning, implementation, deliverable creation, and closing. Planning involves defining objectives and deliverables, creating a work breakdown structure and schedule, and establishing communication and risk management plans.
This document provides an overview of key project management concepts including: defining a project and project management; the triple constraint of schedule, scope and budget; stakeholders; the project manager's role; work breakdown structures; responsibility assignment matrices; project scheduling using critical path methods and Gantt charts; and the importance of project planning documentation like the statement of work. Effective project management requires balancing competing demands while clearly defining objectives and team member responsibilities to deliver projects on time, on budget and meeting stakeholder expectations.
The document discusses project scope and scope management. It defines project scope as including all the work content and expected outcomes of a project. Scope management involves controlling the project goals, objectives, and consists of conceptual development, scope statement, work authorization, scope reporting, control systems, and project closeout. It provides details on each of these components, including defining problem statements, work breakdown structures, organizational breakdown structures, responsibility assignment matrices, and different types of contracts and control systems used in scope management.
This assignment is intended to help you use leadership skills.docx4934bk
This assignment asks students to lead a mock project involving cross-functional team members to improve an existing process from prior weeks. Students must organize the project, apply project management tools to plan and structure it, and create a 10-12 slide PowerPoint presentation with details on the project description, management charts, improved process flowchart, meeting schedule, metrics, finances, and reporting structure while citing references in APA format.

MBA Capstone Project Guidelines
Throughout your MBA program, you have worked to develop as a practitioner-scholar to meet the needs and future challenges as a business leader. Your program culminates in the capstone project, which forms the primary focus of MBA6900, the final course you will take in the program. The capstone project is intended to provide you the opportunity to demonstrate your MBA program outcomes by:
· Planning and executing the strategic and tactical elements of a comprehensive project.
· Integrating and demonstrating skills and techniques you have learned throughout the MBA program.
· Communicating project outcomes both in written form and in a formal presentation.
· Completing your MBA program with an experience that reinforces and integrates the components that have preceded it.
The following information outlines the requirements and work associated with the capstone project for MBA6028 and MBA6900.
Capstone Project Examples
Examples of project types that might be proposed to meet these requirements include but are not limited to:
· Preparation of a strategic plan for an organization.
· A strategic analysis of all or a selected part of an organization.
· Development of a case study of all or a selected part of an organization.
· Development of an intervention, such as a workshop or training activity, that is broad- based enough to demonstrate the program-level outcomes.
· Development of a consulting report on a problematic issue within an organization, provided that the issue is broad-based enough to demonstrate program-level outcomes.
You may propose other structures for the capstone project so long as you are able to identify how the proposed project satisfies the requirement of demonstrating the program-level outcomes. When choosing your topic, keep in mind that your capstone project must result in recommendations, next steps, or some other type of actionable, evidence-based take-aways for the reader or subject of the project.

#When tradeshare = 1, the regression equation is: 0.6403 +2.3064 (1)= 2.9467
#e. To plot the regression line on the scatter plot, use the code abline(Reg1), and it will reveal a line for the data.
#f. Malta is shown in the scatter plot to the right, farthest away from the remaining data. A reason for Malta having such a large tradeshare could be that it's imports/exports are very different from the other countries in the data thus, affecting the size or amount of it. Malta's import/exports could be of the goods that are transported a lot faster or a lot slower than the rest of the countries being analyzed. Because of that, and also because Malta was determined to be differing from all other members, it cannot be included in the analysis.

Final PaperOne reason that California have been known as the Gol.docxcharlottej5
Final Paper
One reason that California have been known as the Golden State is because of the influence of Hollywood. The well-known reputation of the entertainment of Hollywood has been showed the natural advantages of California, such as the weather, coast, and the natural resources. Also, the Hollywood shows another side of California, which is the world-leading level of technology companies. However, it is controversial to state that California is shown to the world by Hollywood. In fact, I prefer the saying that the history and the multicultural environment breed the great potential of the newborn Hollywood at the first place. While Hollywood shows the diverse cultures in California, it expresses in the influence of the California history by showing the images of different racial people in the films.
California have been a state of immigration, attracting people from the world to migrate the family and invite them to contribute for the development of California. It is fair to say that California was built by the people with different ethnical backgrounds. However, Hollywood has not been treated equally to the contributors with different races. White can be always be the lead of the movie. For example, a white actor can play the role with quality of richness, smartness and toughness. A non-white Hispanic actor can play the role of a billionaire, a drug dealer, a villain, a genius, and a special agent. However, Chinese Americans have the least if the scenes in the Hollywood films. Chinese Americans express a very stereotypical image of neediness, Kungfu, or weakness. In historical speaking, the Chinese were first shown in California in the event of Gosh Rush in the 1800s. The image of Chinese miners in Gold Rush is influent to the image of the Chinese Americans from Hollywood firms. It is hard to truly know the Chinese culture through the media. I doubt that Chinese culture does not assimilate to the society of California. In the Chronicling California, it pointed out that the Chinese culture was not quite “fit” into the California society: “the expulsion of the Chinese is not demanded on the ground that they represent cheap labor... they are regarded by the thoughtful as objectionable because they represent a substitution of unchangeable foreign and hopelessly unassimilative material for that which is malleable and assimilative” (100, Hoikkala and Wallis). Most of the Chinese miners had the strong responsibilities to support their families by sending the money to oversea. The loss of currency conflicts with the California society also indirectly caused the Chinese Exclusion Act later in 1882. Comparing to other immigrants, Chinese suffered the unequal treatments, which is why it is hard to see the Chinese cultures in the early Hollywood films.
While Hollywood has published some great firms about the World War II, it emphasized the victory of the United States, avoiding the fact that how the California government treated unfairly to the.
Final PaperIndia and China provide two fascinating country case st.docxcharlottej5
Final Paper
India and China provide two fascinating country case studies for comparing political systems, political cultures, economic growth and the future of the world’s two largest populations. Write a research paper comparing the systems, process and policy of these two countries and hypothesizing the future of each political system.
Students must address and compare the following areas:
Political System- to include the political environment, political structure and its functions.
Political Culture- to include system, process and policy levels to include how political socialization occurs in each country and what are the key agents for socialization in each.
Interest Articulation & Aggregation- describe how this occurs in each country.
Compare how public policy is crafted in these two countries
In conclusion, students will hypothesize the direction in which they believe each country will head in the future. Will these countries become more or less democratic? How will their political cultures change with increased economic prosperity? How might interest aggregation and public policy creation change in the future?

Final Paper
Final Paper Synopsis:
The purpose of this paper will be to simulate a professional analysis of a segment of technology that will contribute to the success of your fictional company. Each student will use the same company. You will choose one of five technologies on which to focus. The complete guidelines are below beginning with the scenario.
Scenario
Overview
JK Incorporated is a 50-year-old retail and distribution grocery company that owns and operates 3,000 stores under different banners across the United States. The mix of products includes products purchased from other manufacturers as well as product that JK manufactures itself. This results in national brands and private labels sold side by side. JK has stores, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and its own distribution fleet of trucks.
JK has enjoyed many years of success using methods that are now considered out of date and is now no longer leading in the industry. Technically progressive companies have entered the grocery industry and are threatening to disrupt JK and put it out of business entirely. JK has many areas that are in need of analysis to identify the positive impact that newer technology may have on its business.
You have been assigned to choose one of the 4 “current state” issues below and articulate the benefits of using the new technology.
Current State Issues
1. JK is using multiple regional data centers with older and less reliable hardware to deliver technical capabilities like point of sale, distribution logistics, loyalty programs, etc. Each of these data centers has high overhead with regard to management (labor), administration (skills), facilities (buildings, environmentals, security, network, and energy). This issue may be a candidate for the analysis of cloud computing.
2. JK has many distribution centers and trucks. These distribution centers do not integrate with the store systems for the timely tracking of deliveries. The current systems do not allow the store managers to answer simple questions like “where’s my truck” or “where’s my order”. JK also has a limited home delivery or “buy online and pick up in store capability. In essence, the distribution channel stops at the store rather than at the customers home as opposed to up and coming rivals. This issue may be a candidate for an overhaul of the enterprise Warehouse Management System and supply chain optimization.
3. JK has limited knowledge of it’s customers. The company relies primarily on random coupons based on products that need to be moved quickly. The marketing and promotion campaigns rely heavily on newspaper advertisements that promote based on time of year, holidays, or weekly bargains that represent overstock or third party promotions that they pass on to customers. There is a limited mobile and web experience with regard to meal planning, shopping list, personal preferences, allergies, or other localization items. This issue may be a candidate.

This claim needs to be stated clearly, explained carefully, fully developed in relation to the kinds of arguments and objections we’ve encountered in texts, by at least two different authors, and defended with philosophical arguments and reasons drawing upon texts we’ve read, ideas of your own, and your own experiences and beliefs.
·
Be sure to relate the theme of your essay to our lives. Why does this claim matter? What difference does it make if you’re right about the thesis?
Topics:
Possible theses can respond to the following topics…
·
Is it appropriate to claim that there is only one true religion?
(Please don’t pick this one, if your answer is “no…”).
·
Do all religions share some common core, so that differences don’t really matter?
·
Does the existence of evil and suffering logically disprove a good all-powerful God?
(Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”)
·
Does the amount and kind of evil and suffering count against the existence of God? Is any evil truly pointless?
(Again, please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”)
·
Does claiming we cannot know whether any evil is pointless also entail that we cannot know (apart from divine revelation) that God really intends our good?
·
Is it possible for God to make genuinely free creatures who are guaranteed never to do wrong (Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…” either).
·
Is evil and suffering in the world justified by bringing a greater good?
(Please don’t choose this one, if your answer is “no…”).
·
Does Christian belief in the incarnation, suffering, , death, and resurrection of Jesus make a difference for the problem of evil and suffering?
·
What is the nature of evil? Is it a “thing” in this world or is it merely the privation of good?
·
Do even secular values (moral, political, social, etc.) function ultimately in a kind of religious way? What are the limits of tolerance?
·
How can a loving God judge evil and how can God allow some people to choose an ultimate destiny that ends in their own destruction (i.e. Hell)?
·
If Darwinian explanations of the natural order of the world are true, does that exclude the existence of God or make God’s existence superfluous
(Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”).
·
If Darwinian explanations of the natural order of the world are true, what does that suggest about the nature of divine providence and God’s relation to the creation?
(Please try not to pick this one; thank you)

Outline & Annotated Bibliography
The option I chose for the final project was option (b), to select and write about a feature length film made between 1970-2000. The film I chose is a story by Stephen King, ‘The Green Mile’, directed by Frank Darabont. Below I will outline my final paper for the course, as well as list and discuss a few sources that I will be citing.
· Introduction
· Discuss the making of the film
· The film’s success (box office/awards and nominations)
· Critical reaction to the film
· Personal reaction to the film (what I liked/did not like, critique of main character roles and actors/actresses who played them)
· Discuss direction of film (montage/sound and music)
· Discuss direction of film cont. (cinematography/ special effects)
· Conclusion
· Bibliography
Cinematography of The Green Mile. (2014). Cinematography of The Green Mile. Retrieved 27 June 2017, from https://bnyce82.wordpress.com/
This reference is specific to the cinematography techniques used in the film, ‘The Green Mile’. It provides insight into the various aspects of cinematography, such as the tone of the film, the camera angles and lighting, as well as the dialogue between the characters. This reference will help backup the information I will provide in my final paper.
Darabont, F. (1999). The Green Mile. Retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VslrToVsu80
This reference is the actual film, ‘The Green Mile’, found on YouTube. I will be watching the entire film to gather information for my final paper. The information I will be looking for while watching this film are the editing techniques used by the director, as well as my personal reaction to draw a general conclusion from.
Ebert, R. (1999). The Green Mile Movie Review & Film Summary (1999) | Roger Ebert. Rogerebert.com. Retrieved 27 June 2017, from http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-green-mile-1999
The movie review of, ‘The Green Mile’, by the late Roger Ebert is a perfect reference to gain insight to the critical review of the film upon its release. I will be referencing opinions and points made by the infamous film critic, as he discusses the direction of the film, as well as the actors’ performance.
Kuhn, A., & Westwell, G.(2012). cinematography. In A Dictionary of Film Studies. : Oxford University Press. Retrieved 28 Jun. 2017, from http://www.oxfordreference.com/view/10.1093/acref/9780199587261.001.0001/acref-9780199587261-e-0124.
This general reference on cinematography is from the Oxford Dictionary of Film Studies. I found this entry very useful during week 4 of the course when it was presented and will use it as a reference for my final paper, as well as future discussions. The entry defines cinematography in film making as capturing movement on film, as well as explains the role of a cinematographer on a movie set.

Final Digital Marketing Plan
Final Digital Marketing Plan PowerPoint Presentation,
Introduction
In this PowerPoint presentation, we will present our Final Digital Marketing Plan for our product the Concussion Protocol Sensor (CPS). This product idea was created by Simone Harvey and voted on by the remaining team members in team D to implement as our product idea. In the first phase of the marketing plan we outlined a target market and included a segmentation criteria for the Concussion Protocol Sensor. Second, we will developed a digital advertising strategy and included two sample banner ads and a mock landing page for the website in our marketing plan. Third, the presentation will provide examples of three mock web ads and include specifics of where they will be placed. And we will create a budget for a two week advertising campaign.
The second phase of the marketing plan will summarize our plan to reach consumers. Our goal to reach our consumers is by using email marketing to directly send out email advertisements to consumers through the assistance of AWeber. In today’s day and age, social media and instant connection is the best most popular way of connecting with not only friends and family but consumers as well. There are many different forms of social media out there today such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram. We will utilize these platforms in our marketing strategy in an effort to reach as many consumers as possible.

Target MarketYouth Sports Programs focused on young athletesHigh School students interested in sportsCollege Athletic ProgramsCoaches involved in sports programs
The target market for the CPS would be youth sports programs focused on young athletes, age 6-13; high schools students interested in sports, age 14-18; University athletic programs, and coaches involved in sports.
The ages that would benefit would span from very young children all the way to adults that are active in sports or other activities that could be extreme enough to lead to potential head injuries.

Demographic Market Segmentation
As it relates to the segmentation criteria we used to determine the target market for the CPS, we chose the Demographic Market Segmentation’s, as it works best with our marketing strategy since the data is easily available and drastically affects buying patterns. Age, income, gender, ethnic background and family life cycle are all important factors of demographic segmentation.
The CPS is going to use an age range of 5-34 years of.

Film Analysis AssignmentPurpose To encourage you to becom.docxcharlottej5
Film Analysis Assignment
Purpose:
To encourage you to become critical observers of interpersonal communication skills, choose a movie to review from the suggested film list. After watching the film write a 4-5 page (minimum of 1000 words) paper using these guidelines. All papers must follow APA or MLA guidelines, use Times New Roman font, be double spaced, 12 point font, and 1 inch margins.
Instructions
: This assignment is to be completed in three parts (see below). Choose a film from the list provided below. Watch the film and write an analysis paper based on concepts covered in this interpersonal communication class. You may need to watch the film more than once to complete this assignment.
In the
introductory paragraph
, provide the following elements:
Offer a creative opening for the paper that grabs the reader’s attention.
Briefly
summarize the film. The summary could include: the title, the plot, and the main characters.
Offer a clear
thesis
for the essay. A thesis statement explains to the reader how you plan to interpret the subject, tells the reader what to expect from the paper (road map), and answers the ‘so what’ question about how this film can be interpreted using vital interpersonal communication theories and concepts.
Provide an overview of how the paper will be organized that includes the specific concepts that will be discussed.
In the
body
of the essay, using separate paragraphs, analyze five (5)
different
interpersonal communication concepts
from at least three (3) different chapters
that are demonstrated in the movie.
For
each
interpersonal concept:
Define
the concept using the textbook and provide an example from the film that demonstrates the concept. Be specific: describe the character(s) and/or event(s) where the concept is demonstrated and use terms from the text.
Evaluate
whether the concept is applied effectively or ineffectively (good example or bad example). Take a position and explain why you believe this to be true. First-person language is acceptable.
Analyze
the consequences of the concept’s effective or ineffective application. Consider short-term and long-term consequences to the character(s) and plot. In other words, project beyond the movie. If the movie continued, or had a sequel, how do you think the consequences would impact the character(s).
What does it mean to analyze?
When your instructor asks you to write an
analysis
, don’t panic. All they want is for you to take something apart to see how it works. To write an analysis, think about how each part of something contributes to the success of the whole.
CAUTION: Make sure that you are not just summarizing the scene from your movie. Go beyond telling us what you are talking about. Describe
how
and
why
its elements function.
Summarizing = WHAT Analyzing = HOW & WHY
In addition to using theories from the textbook, utilize at least one credible outside source as part of your analysis of a specifi.

Final PaperOne reason that California have been known as the Gol.docxcharlottej5
Final Paper
One reason that California have been known as the Golden State is because of the influence of Hollywood. The well-known reputation of the entertainment of Hollywood has been showed the natural advantages of California, such as the weather, coast, and the natural resources. Also, the Hollywood shows another side of California, which is the world-leading level of technology companies. However, it is controversial to state that California is shown to the world by Hollywood. In fact, I prefer the saying that the history and the multicultural environment breed the great potential of the newborn Hollywood at the first place. While Hollywood shows the diverse cultures in California, it expresses in the influence of the California history by showing the images of different racial people in the films.
California have been a state of immigration, attracting people from the world to migrate the family and invite them to contribute for the development of California. It is fair to say that California was built by the people with different ethnical backgrounds. However, Hollywood has not been treated equally to the contributors with different races. White can be always be the lead of the movie. For example, a white actor can play the role with quality of richness, smartness and toughness. A non-white Hispanic actor can play the role of a billionaire, a drug dealer, a villain, a genius, and a special agent. However, Chinese Americans have the least if the scenes in the Hollywood films. Chinese Americans express a very stereotypical image of neediness, Kungfu, or weakness. In historical speaking, the Chinese were first shown in California in the event of Gosh Rush in the 1800s. The image of Chinese miners in Gold Rush is influent to the image of the Chinese Americans from Hollywood firms. It is hard to truly know the Chinese culture through the media. I doubt that Chinese culture does not assimilate to the society of California. In the Chronicling California, it pointed out that the Chinese culture was not quite “fit” into the California society: “the expulsion of the Chinese is not demanded on the ground that they represent cheap labor... they are regarded by the thoughtful as objectionable because they represent a substitution of unchangeable foreign and hopelessly unassimilative material for that which is malleable and assimilative” (100, Hoikkala and Wallis). Most of the Chinese miners had the strong responsibilities to support their families by sending the money to oversea. The loss of currency conflicts with the California society also indirectly caused the Chinese Exclusion Act later in 1882. Comparing to other immigrants, Chinese suffered the unequal treatments, which is why it is hard to see the Chinese cultures in the early Hollywood films.
While Hollywood has published some great firms about the World War II, it emphasized the victory of the United States, avoiding the fact that how the California government treated unfairly to the.

Final Paper
Final Paper Synopsis:
The purpose of this paper will be to simulate a professional analysis of a segment of technology that will contribute to the success of your fictional company. Each student will use the same company. You will choose one of five technologies on which to focus. The complete guidelines are below beginning with the scenario.
Scenario
Overview
JK Incorporated is a 50-year-old retail and distribution grocery company that owns and operates 3,000 stores under different banners across the United States. The mix of products includes products purchased from other manufacturers as well as product that JK manufactures itself. This results in national brands and private labels sold side by side. JK has stores, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and its own distribution fleet of trucks.
JK has enjoyed many years of success using methods that are now considered out of date and is now no longer leading in the industry. Technically progressive companies have entered the grocery industry and are threatening to disrupt JK and put it out of business entirely. JK has many areas that are in need of analysis to identify the positive impact that newer technology may have on its business.
You have been assigned to choose one of the 4 “current state” issues below and articulate the benefits of using the new technology.
Current State Issues
1. JK is using multiple regional data centers with older and less reliable hardware to deliver technical capabilities like point of sale, distribution logistics, loyalty programs, etc. Each of these data centers has high overhead with regard to management (labor), administration (skills), facilities (buildings, environmentals, security, network, and energy). This issue may be a candidate for the analysis of cloud computing.
2. JK has many distribution centers and trucks. These distribution centers do not integrate with the store systems for the timely tracking of deliveries. The current systems do not allow the store managers to answer simple questions like “where’s my truck” or “where’s my order”. JK also has a limited home delivery or “buy online and pick up in store capability. In essence, the distribution channel stops at the store rather than at the customers home as opposed to up and coming rivals. This issue may be a candidate for an overhaul of the enterprise Warehouse Management System and supply chain optimization.
3. JK has limited knowledge of it’s customers. The company relies primarily on random coupons based on products that need to be moved quickly. The marketing and promotion campaigns rely heavily on newspaper advertisements that promote based on time of year, holidays, or weekly bargains that represent overstock or third party promotions that they pass on to customers. There is a limited mobile and web experience with regard to meal planning, shopping list, personal preferences, allergies, or other localization items. This issue may be a candidate.

Final Paper, Essay Proposal, & Outline
·
The final essay should be about
6-7 pages
in length
·
The focus of this essay will be to state, explain, develop, and defend a particular thesis based upon some theme in philosophy of religion related to the texts we’ve been reading.
·
The thesis needs to make some specific
claim
(or closely interrelated set of claims) about some topic or theme that we’ve touched on this term, (see list of possible topics below).
·
This claim needs to be stated clearly, explained carefully, fully developed in relation to the kinds of arguments and objections we’ve encountered in texts, by at least two different authors, and defended with philosophical arguments and reasons drawing upon texts we’ve read, ideas of your own, and your own experiences and beliefs.
·
Be sure to relate the theme of your essay to our lives. Why does this claim matter? What difference does it make if you’re right about the thesis?
Topics:
Possible theses can respond to the following topics…
·
Is it appropriate to claim that there is only one true religion?
(Please don’t pick this one, if your answer is “no…”).
·
Do all religions share some common core, so that differences don’t really matter?
·
Does the existence of evil and suffering logically disprove a good all-powerful God?
(Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”)
·
Does the amount and kind of evil and suffering count against the existence of God? Is any evil truly pointless?
(Again, please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”)
·
Does claiming we cannot know whether any evil is pointless also entail that we cannot know (apart from divine revelation) that God really intends our good?
·
Is it possible for God to make genuinely free creatures who are guaranteed never to do wrong (Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…” either).
·
Is evil and suffering in the world justified by bringing a greater good?
(Please don’t choose this one, if your answer is “no…”).
·
Does Christian belief in the incarnation, suffering, , death, and resurrection of Jesus make a difference for the problem of evil and suffering?
·
What is the nature of evil? Is it a “thing” in this world or is it merely the privation of good?
·
Do even secular values (moral, political, social, etc.) function ultimately in a kind of religious way? What are the limits of tolerance?
·
How can a loving God judge evil and how can God allow some people to choose an ultimate destiny that ends in their own destruction (i.e. Hell)?
·
If Darwinian explanations of the natural order of the world are true, does that exclude the existence of God or make God’s existence superfluous
(Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”).
·
If Darwinian explanations of the natural order of the world are true, what does that suggest about the nature of divine providence and God’s relation to the creation?
(Please try not to pick this one; thank you)

The option I chose for the final project was option (b), to select and write about a feature length film made between 1970-2000. The film I chose is a story by Stephen King, ‘The Green Mile’, directed by Frank Darabont. Below I will outline my final paper for the course, as well as list and discuss a few sources that I will be citing.
· Introduction
· Discuss the making of the film
· The film’s success (box office/awards and nominations)
· Critical reaction to the film
· Personal reaction to the film (what I liked/did not like, critique of main character roles and actors/actresses who played them)

· Bibliography
Cinematography of The Green Mile. (2014). Cinematography of The Green Mile. Retrieved 27 June 2017, from https://bnyce82.wordpress.com/
This reference is specific to the cinematography techniques used in the film, ‘The Green Mile’. It provides insight into the various aspects of cinematography, such as the tone of the film, the camera angles and lighting, as well as the dialogue between the characters. This reference will help backup the information I will provide in my final paper.
Darabont, F. (1999). The Green Mile. Retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VslrToVsu80
This reference is the actual film, ‘The Green Mile’, found on YouTube. I will be watching the entire film to gather information for my final paper. The information I will be looking for while watching this film are the editing techniques used by the director, as well as my personal reaction to draw a general conclusion from.
Ebert, R. (1999). The Green Mile Movie Review & Film Summary (1999) | Roger Ebert. Rogerebert.com. Retrieved 27 June 2017, from http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-green-mile-1999
The movie review of, ‘The Green Mile’, by the late Roger Ebert is a perfect reference to gain insight to the critical review of the film upon its release. I will be referencing opinions and points made by the infamous film critic, as he discusses the direction of the film, as well as the actors’ performance.

This general reference on cinematography is from the Oxford Dictionary of Film Studies. I found this entry very useful during week 4 of the course when it was presented and will use it as a reference for my final paper, as well as future discussions. The entry defines cinematography in film making as capturing movement on film, as well as explains the role of a cinematographer on a movie set.

Final Digital Marketing Plan
Final Digital Marketing Plan PowerPoint Presentation,
Introduction
In this PowerPoint presentation, we will present our Final Digital Marketing Plan for our product the Concussion Protocol Sensor (CPS). This product idea was created by Simone Harvey and voted on by the remaining team members in team D to implement as our product idea. In the first phase of the marketing plan we outlined a target market and included a segmentation criteria for the Concussion Protocol Sensor. Second, we will developed a digital advertising strategy and included two sample banner ads and a mock landing page for the website in our marketing plan. Third, the presentation will provide examples of three mock web ads and include specifics of where they will be placed. And we will create a budget for a two week advertising campaign.
The second phase of the marketing plan will summarize our plan to reach consumers. Our goal to reach our consumers is by using email marketing to directly send out email advertisements to consumers through the assistance of AWeber. In today’s day and age, social media and instant connection is the best most popular way of connecting with not only friends and family but consumers as well. There are many different forms of social media out there today such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram. We will utilize these platforms in our marketing strategy in an effort to reach as many consumers as possible.

The target market for the CPS would be youth sports programs focused on young athletes, age 6-13; high schools students interested in sports, age 14-18; University athletic programs, and coaches involved in sports.
The ages that would benefit would span from very young children all the way to adults that are active in sports or other activities that could be extreme enough to lead to potential head injuries.

Demographic Market Segmentation
As it relates to the segmentation criteria we used to determine the target market for the CPS, we chose the Demographic Market Segmentation’s, as it works best with our marketing strategy since the data is easily available and drastically affects buying patterns. Age, income, gender, ethnic background and family life cycle are all important factors of demographic segmentation.
The CPS is going to use an age range of 5-34 years of.

GE and the Shadow Banking Landscape
Well, my plan is more comprehensive. And frankly, it’s tougher because of course we have to deal with the
problem that the banks are still too big to fail…But we also have to worry about some of the other players—
AIG, a big insurance company; Lehman Brothers, an investment bank. There’s this whole area called “shadow
banking.” That’s where the experts tell me the next potential problem could come from. I want to make sure
we’re going to cover everybody, not what caused the problem last ti.

Final Project Part I
Part I Overview
Business professionals typically need to demonstrate a core set of financial knowledge to earn the job and to succeed on a job. For this part of the assessment,
you will be given a scenario in which you are asked to illustrate your financial management knowledge.
This part of the final project addresses the following course outcomes:
Analyze the roles and responsibilities of financial managers in confirming compliance with federal and shareholder requirements
Differentiate between various financial markets and institutions by comparing and contrasting options when selecting appropriate private and corporate
investments
Part I Prompt
You have completed an internship in the finance division of a fast-growing information technology corporation. Your boss, the financial manager, is considering
hiring you for a full-time job. He first wants to evaluate your financial knowledge and has provided you with a short examination. When composing your answers
to this employment examination, ensure that they are cohesive and read like a short essay.
Your submission must address the following critical elements:
I. Analyze Roles and Responsibilities for Compliance
A. Examine the types of decisions financial managers make. How are these decisions related to the primary objective of financial managers?
B. Analyze the various ethical issues a financial manager could potentially face and how these could be handled.
C. Compare and contrast the different federal safeguards that are in place to reduce financial reporting abuse. Why are these considered
appropriate safeguards?
II. Investment Options
A. If a private company is “going public,” what does this mean, and how would the company do this? What are the advantages of doing this? Do
you see any disadvantages? If so, what are they?
B. How do the largest U.S. stock markets differ? Out of those choices, which would be the smartest private investment option, in your opinion?
Why?
C. Compare and contrast the various investment products that are available and the types of institutions that sell them.

Film Analysis AssignmentPurpose To encourage you to becom.docxcharlottej5
Film Analysis Assignment
Purpose:
To encourage you to become critical observers of interpersonal communication skills, choose a movie to review from the suggested film list. After watching the film write a 4-5 page (minimum of 1000 words) paper using these guidelines. All papers must follow APA or MLA guidelines, use Times New Roman font, be double spaced, 12 point font, and 1 inch margins.
Instructions
: This assignment is to be completed in three parts (see below). Choose a film from the list provided below. Watch the film and write an analysis paper based on concepts covered in this interpersonal communication class. You may need to watch the film more than once to complete this assignment.
In the
introductory paragraph
, provide the following elements:
Offer a creative opening for the paper that grabs the reader’s attention.
Briefly
summarize the film. The summary could include: the title, the plot, and the main characters.
Offer a clear
thesis
for the essay. A thesis statement explains to the reader how you plan to interpret the subject, tells the reader what to expect from the paper (road map), and answers the ‘so what’ question about how this film can be interpreted using vital interpersonal communication theories and concepts.
Provide an overview of how the paper will be organized that includes the specific concepts that will be discussed.
In the
body
of the essay, using separate paragraphs, analyze five (5)
different
interpersonal communication concepts
from at least three (3) different chapters
that are demonstrated in the movie.
For
each
interpersonal concept:
Define
the concept using the textbook and provide an example from the film that demonstrates the concept. Be specific: describe the character(s) and/or event(s) where the concept is demonstrated and use terms from the text.
Evaluate
whether the concept is applied effectively or ineffectively (good example or bad example). Take a position and explain why you believe this to be true. First-person language is acceptable.
Analyze
the consequences of the concept’s effective or ineffective application. Consider short-term and long-term consequences to the character(s) and plot. In other words, project beyond the movie. If the movie continued, or had a sequel, how do you think the consequences would impact the character(s).
What does it mean to analyze?
When your instructor asks you to write an
analysis
, don’t panic. All they want is for you to take something apart to see how it works. To write an analysis, think about how each part of something contributes to the success of the whole.
CAUTION: Make sure that you are not just summarizing the scene from your movie. Go beyond telling us what you are talking about. Describe
how
and
why
its elements function.
Summarizing = WHAT Analyzing = HOW & WHY
In addition to using theories from the textbook, utilize at least one credible outside source as part of your analysis of a specifi.

Presentation. You will present an overview of the project and
provides the project sponsor with an overall view of the project
plan. In some cases, the business sponsor/executive will not
have time to read the entire plan, so they would prefer a
presentation highlighting the key points of the project. You
should include the project baseline start and finish dates for the
project. You should also include a short table with the high-
level budget that indicates the baseline total planned budget
amount for the overall project within your presentation. The

Section E: Conclusion
Section F: Lessons Learned Report
Please review the rubric for this presentation to ensure all
3. requirements are accomplished with your presentation. This
presentation will be submitted by the end of week 7.
You will automatically be assigned to two other presentations to
conduct your peer reviews that will be due by Saturday of Week

Note!
The video or presentation will involve a process-orientated task
by analyzing the process of completing the project, analyzing
the results of the project, and evolving transformation of the
results and issues of the project into a summary of the project
along with a lessons-learned report (Processes). The collection
of data from performing the project would be conducted by the
student, which will be analyzed and synthesized. The student
through whatever means that is effective that can include
Excel® and/or Microsoft® Project® will transform this data
into a final management report (Data). After using tools such as
Excel® and/or Project®, the student will use a microphone to
create narration for a slide presentation via PowerPoint® with
automatic transitions, Movie Maker, PowerPoint® Video Tool,
or other such presentation/video tools available to the student.
Either the PowerPoint® or resulting MP4 video will be
embedded to a discussion thread for asynchronous discussion
activity (Devices). Finally, a peer review process will follow
the submission of the presentation that provides an integral
network of outsiders analyzing and evaluating the course
project summary and lessons learned provided (People).
