This document outlines the requirements for a final project to critically analyze a federal policy. Students must: 1) Select a policy from the Federal Register and summarize the issue and impact. This includes outlining the financial and other impacts and stating whether they agree with the policy. 2) Identify actions that could be taken to address the issue, including key metrics to monitor the issue, and ways to educate others about the issue and encourage involvement. 3) Create pseudocode or a flow diagram for a program that would allow users to submit information about the issue and a petition to the government. The information must be verified before entering a data lake.

Education

The Final Project is designed to demonstrate the ability to apply
data driven quantitative
reasoning and statistical tools to address complex problems in
dynamic business environments.
For this final project we will create a presentation outlining the
steps to critically analyze and
develop policies, interpreting and evaluation regulatory impact.
We will use federal policies located in the Federal Register
(Found at
https://www.federalregister.gov) for our analysis. Our goal is
to select a policy that is
meaningful to us. We can select any section of the register and
any topic for our policy review.
We will review the policy for the issue and provide our own
critical analysis for policy update.
Our goal is to provide IMPACT and ACTION analysis.
Below are the deliverables and steps required to complete the
final project
1) Provide a Word with a cover page including:
• Name
• Course
• Lab Number
• Date
2) Include the following ISSUE information in you’re a Word
document or PowerPoint
presentation:
a. Summarize the issue outlined in the policy

b. Provide any supporting details you can find in your
independent research
3) Identify the IMPACT the issue has caused:
a. Is there a clearly defined issue in the Federal Register policy?
If so restate the
issue in your own words in the presentation. If no clear
definition is available,
create your own.
b. Research and provide a FINANCIAL IMPACT of the issue?
If financial impact
cannot be found, say so in your presentation, and document
some of the
attempted research methods to find the financial impact.
c. Research and provide any additional IMPACT information of
the issue.
d. In your analysis of the issue, do you agree with the policy
created in the Federal
Register?
4) Identify the ACTION(s) that can be
identified/implemented/assigned for the specific
policy you selected above
• MONITOR
i. Critically thinking about the issue itself, what are THREE (3)
to FIVE (5)
key points that can be measured
ii. These key points are key metrics/key performance indicators
iii. These key points will be the DATA SET you could use to
build the

foundation of a data lake
• EDUCATE
i. Create separate slides, documents, or presentations (inside the
final
project presentation)
1. Identify 3 to 5 points that you can use to communicate your
issue
to someone new to the problem
2. Identify 2 to 3 methods/ways that someone new to the issue
can
become involved and supportive of a policy change. (this can
be
existing groups, groups you could create, or important
people/government officials the new person could speak too)
5) Create a PSEUDO CODE of FLOW DIAGRAM of a program
that would allow users to enter
important information (think about information that is important
to the issue itself and
important to complete a petition to the United States federal
government).
• Petition information (Found at
https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/5/2422.3)
must be stored separately from information collected on the
issue itself
• Information regarding the issues (5 key points / metrics / key
performance
indicators) must be verified before it can be committed to the

data lake … hint
the code / flow must account for a verification step before
entering the data into
the lake
6) Submit your final document or presentation. Ensure that
your submission is
professional free of spelling and grammatical errors, that the
submission covers the
topic and identifies an appropriate data set.
• Any reference material page. Ensure the following phases are
included under
the right model and in the right order.

7 tips for better enterprise search

Kristian Norling

Ask employees what their main pain points are when it comes to using the intranet and chances are “search” will appear in the top 5 of the list. Meanwhile the global survey on Enterprise Search conclude that while 78% of respondents believe finding the right information is critical to business goals and success, only 24% have a search strategy in place. Only 9% claim it’s “fairly easy” to find content, compared to 64% who admit it’s “hard” or “very hard”. While improvements in search requires both resources and thorough reviews, there are some things you can do to start the journey while getting a longer-term strategy in place. Kristian Norling from IntraTeam will a crash-course in intranet search with 7 actionable to-dos to take home.

MBA 599 – Strategic Management Case Project This capstone course requires each student to construct a detailed and well-thought-out analysis of a business employing all the relevant strategic analysis tools studied in the course. This project will take the full term to complete. It is our sincere hope that you will find this project to be the most rewarding effort in your educational career. Project Overview This course is designed to help you develop strategic skills that can be used in management. The process of strategic planning is an iterative cycle of research and analysis, ending with a series of choices about what will be attempted and how it will be approached. The most tangible output is the strategic planning document. The most important output is the increased understanding that the participants acquire. Accordingly, the assessment of the final project will be heavily dependent on the quality of the strategic thinking inside that polished report. Students that focus on the expeditious completion of the steps may find that they have shortchanged the important and time-consuming exploration and thinking that is necessary to create a quality strategic case. Since not all tools can tell the planner which factors and alternatives are important to consider, the planner should pull in as much diverse information and perspectives as possible. Additionally, you should put yourselves in the competitor’s shoes and consider how the “game” will play out. Your homework and subsequent improvements are intended to become a primary basis for the exploration and questioning that drives your strategic understanding and creative ideas. In addition, it is important to test your strategic thinking and your use of analytical tools in preparation for your final project. Tips for Selecting an Organization As you select an organization for your class project, it is important that you select one that is interesting, possibly useful to you in your career, industry, or interests, and allows you to explore strategic challenges in a meaningful way. If you select the industry in which you currently work, you must address two critical issues: (1) integrating and clearly citing existing information. (You will need to delineate work you’ve contributed as opposed to pre-existing information), and (2) succinctly presenting existing information while adding new insight, analysis, and plans that substantially add to strategy development, implementation, and/or assessment of the organization. An organization or industry you are interested in should give you better access to information although you need to pay careful attention to the points made above. Do not underestimate the degree to which you will need to be an expert in the selected industry and related areas. It is impossible to create a strategy without understanding the terms, technologies, market changes, and so forth in great depth. A.

DAT 520 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview You must complete a decision analysis research project as your final project for this course. Your research project will focus on a real-world topic of your choice, as approved by your instructor. You will pick a topic from the list provided or with approval from your instructor, and create a data analysis plan and decision tree model based on a real-world scenario. This assessment will provide you with the opportunity to employ highly valued decision support skills and concepts for data within a real-world context. You can use the Final Project Notes document, found in the Assignment Guidelines and Rubrics section of the course. The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Five, and Seven. The final submission will occur in Module Nine. This project will address the following course outcomes:  Appraise data in context according to industry-standard methods and techniques for its utility in supporting decision making  Determine suitable data manipulation and modeling methods for decision support  Articulate data frameworks for organizational decision support by applying data manipulation, modeling, and management concepts  Evaluate the ethical issues surrounding organizational use of decision-oriented data based on industry standards and one’s personal ethical criteria  Create and assess the agility of solutions through application of data-mining procedures for decision support in various industries Prompt Your decision analysis model and report should answer the following prompt: How does your model and evaluation resolve uncertainty in making a decision? In order to produce your analytic report, you will need to choose and investigate a data set using the decision analysis techniques you learned in class. Then you will formulate a research question, write an analytic plan, and implement it. Your report should not solely consist of descriptions of what you did. It should also contain detailed explorations into the meaning behind your model and the implications of its results. You will also be testing your model’s fitness and evaluating its strengths and weaknesses. The project in a nutshell: 1. Choose a data set (get ideas from the source list in the spreadsheet Final Project Topics and Sources.xls) 2. Formulate your decision analysis research question 3. Write an analytic plan 4. Perform the top-down or bottom-up modeling 5. Perform model diagnostics 6.

1 2 Assignment 2: Final Report This assignment is aligned to this course outcome: · Apply macroeconomic concepts to current and personal economic events and decisions. In addition to writing about macroeconomic concepts, it's equally important to be able to convey your understanding of these concepts by communicating them to others. In the workplace you might do this by writing briefs (like you did for Assignment 1), creating presentations, or writing reports for your manager or team. For this Final Report assignment, you can build off your previous economic brief and selected industry from Assignment 1, or you can select another industry such as Finance and Insurance, Health Care, or Manufacturing, and examine one of the macroeconomic indicators or policies below: · GDP growth · Unemployment rates · Inflation rates · Interest rates · Imports and exports · Government fiscal policy and issues related to taxation, government spending, and budget deficits · FED (central bank) monetary policy and issues related to the FED’s mission to stabilize the economy Instructions Use Microsoft Word to prepare a Final Report that is a minimum of two to three (2-3) pages long in which you: 1. Introduce your selected industry with a brief one-paragraph introduction. Refer to the NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) to review the details about your industry. 2. Assess your selected industry’s relative size and growth rate in the economy. These macroeconomic resources will help you find the size and growth rate of your industry in the U.S. economy and/or relative to GDP: • Real GDP – Select Section 1, then table 1.1.6 (select MODIFY to change the year range and frequency). Data is from Bureau of Economic Analysis (bea.gov). • % Change in Real GDP – Select Section 1, then table 1.1.1 (select MODIFY to change the year range and frequency).

QSO 510 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview The final project for this course is the creation of a statistical analysis report. Each day, operations management professionals are faced with multiple decisions affecting various aspects of the operation. The ability to use data to drive decisions is an essential skill that is useful in any facet of an operation. The dynamic environment offers daily challenges that require the talents of the operations manager; working in this field is exciting and rewarding. Throughout the course, you will be engaged in activities that charge you with making decisions regarding inventory management, production capacity, product profitability, equipment effectiveness, and supply chain management. These are just a few of the challenges encountered in the field of operations management. The final activity in this course will provide you with the opportunity to demonstrate your ability to apply statistical tools and methods to solve a problem in a given scenario that is often encountered by an operations manager. Once you have outlined your analysis strategy and analyzed your data, you will then report your data, strategy, and overall decision that addresses the given problem. The project is divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three and Seven. The final project is due in Module Nine. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:  Apply data-based strategies in guiding a focused approach for improving operational processes  Determine the appropriate statistical methods for informing valid data-driven decision making in professional settings  Select statistical tools for guiding data-driven decision making resulting in sustainable operational processes  Utilize a structured approach for data-driven decision making for fostering continuous improvement activities  Propose operational improvement recommendations to internal and external stakeholders based on relevant data Prompt Operations management professionals are often relied upon to make decisions regarding operational processes. Those who utilize a data-driven, structured approach have a clear advantage over those offering decisions based solely on intuition. You will be provided with a scenario often encountered by an operations manager. Your task is to review the “A-Cat Corp.: Forecasting” scenario, the addendum, and the accompanying data in the case scenario and addendum; outline the appropriate analysis strategy; select a suitable statistical tool; and use data analysis to ultimately drive the decision. Once this has been completed, you will be challenged to present your data, data analysis strategy, and overall decision in a concise report, justifying your analysis. Specifically, the ...

Dr. Frick Case 1: Family Loyalty vs. Meritocracy A man was appointed president of the newly-acquired Philippine subsidiary of a large American company. He was reviewing the organization with the company's head of human resources. One thing the president noted was that the same names reoccurred frequently in several departments. "It is our tradition," commented the HR head. "Families take care of their own. If one family member gets a good job in a Philippine company, other members of the family apply to join that company and the first member there can help the whole family become successful by helping them get hired and by coaching them to be successful. The company benefits. Our costs of recruiting are lower, we know more about the people we hire, and the commitment to family success results in fewer performance and discipline problems because family members want to please their older relatives." The president wondered how these practices would be regarded in a large American firm, and whether or not he should take action to change them. 1. Nepotism is not illegal, but is it ethical? 2. If the business is family-owned, does that make a difference? 3. How does national culture affect this discussion? Case 2: Is the Two-Tier System Ethically Problematic Employees at a cereal makers plant were “locked-out” from their jobs producing cereal for over 3 months. Company management and the union representing the employees reached a stalemate in negotiations resulting in the lockout. The union claims that the primary issue is the company’s demand of dramatically increasing the number of temporary workers, who would earn $6 less per hour and receive fewer benefits. Critics claim this effectively creates a two-tier system at the plant. Under the current agreement, the company may use temporary workers for up to 30% of the workforce, but the union claims the company is now pushing for 100%. The workers, who have had their health insurance suspended, fear that their jobs will either be replaced entirely by temporary workers, or they will be f ...

Barbara Corcoran Learns Her Heart’s True Desires In her.docx

Barbara Corcoran Learns Her Heart’s True Desires In her hilarious and lighthearted book, Shark Tales: How I Turned $1,000 Into a Billion Dollar Business, Barbara Corcoran demonstrates the importance of knowing what you really want out of life (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011). As her title suggests, Barbara founded her real estate company, The Corcoran Group, with only $1,000 and some big dreams. Shortly after founding the company, Barbara took out a piece of paper and wrote down some big goals for herself and the company. In 1978, she had only 14 sales agents working for her, who earned a total of $250,000 in commissions. She set a goal of doubling the number of agents and the commissions every year. So she put down 28 sales people for 1979, 56 for 1980, and so on, all the way up to 1,792 salespeople in 1985 with total commissions of $32,000,000. Barbara was amazed when she saw the fantastic sums projected for 1985, and of course many people, when they see such amazing sums, would dismiss the calculations as fantasy But as Barbara put it, she went to work the next day hustling hard for her $32 million. Real estate agents are paid largely by commission, which is about as close as you can get to a pure form of contingent reward for performance. However, Barbara didn’t rely solely on the commissions to motivate her workers. She threw theme parties and held numerous social events to build a committed workforce. Good sales agents could always move to another firm, but not every firm had Barbara’s positive attitude and fun-filled atmosphere. In the early years of the firm, when money was tight, Barbara and her relatives did the cooking for the outings and parties, and she found clever ways to entertain people with skating parties and other lively activities. As the firm became larger and more profitable, she even hired professional entertainers for the company’s midweek picnics, which included elephant shows, daring rides on hot air balloons, horses, or Harley Davidsons, etc. Barbara stated “I built my company on pure fun, and believe that fun is the most underutilized motivational tool in business today. All of my best ideas came when I was playing outside the office with the people I worked with” (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011, p. 283). What did she get in return for the fun atmosphere? She had the “most profitable real estate company per person in the United States” (p. 284). By the time she sold her agency in 2001, she had 1,000 agents working for her, and she had the largest real estate agency in New York – clearly her motivational strategies attracted a large number of productive employees. Barbara Corcoran had sold her firm for $66 million. She thought that would make her happy, but instead, it made her sad. Although she pretended to be happy with her new wealth and freedom, she was “secretly miserable” (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011, p. 232). She had lost her purpose ...

Bapsi Sidhwa’s Cracking India 1947 Partition Deepa Mehta’s earth (1998) Characters Aamir Khan - Dil Navaz, the Ice Candy Man Nandita Das - Shanta, the Ayah Rahul Khanna - Hassan, the Masseur Maia Sethna - Lenny Sethna Shabana Azmi - older Lenny, narrator Kitu Gidwani - Bunty Sethna Arif Zakaria - Rustom Sethna Kulbhushan Kharbanda - Imam Din Kumar Rajendra - Refugee Police Pavan Malhotra - Butcher IN Deepa Mehta’s words I wanted desperately to make CRACKING INDIA into a film, a particular film, EARTH, which would be the second in my trilogy of the elements of Fire, Earth and Water. Tracing Bapsi was no easy task but persevere we did and soon I was talking to Bapsi on the phone, hoping that the film rights to her book were still available. Two months later, thanks to David Hamilton's unwavering belief in the project, we owned the rights, had development funds, and I was sitting at my kitchen table, writing the screenplay of EARTH. David and Anne Masson and I had worked together on FIRE and we re-assembled the team to begin the detailed planning of the production. During this phase Bapsi became a friend and was exceedingly generous with information and old photographs. She would talk with me for hours about what it was like growing up in Lahore during those times. Lenny, after all, was based on Bapsi. In fact, Lenny was Bapsi. The irony of our situation hasn't escaped Bapsi or myself. Bapsi is from Pakistan and now a US citizen. I'm from India and now living in Canada. If neither of us had moved from our respective homelands, the film just wouldn't have been possible. Pakistan and India, since the Partition of 1947, are sworn enemies. Not only have they fought three major wars against each other, but also, as I write this, both countries talk blithely about their nuclear capabilities and continue their militant aggression against each other across the still- disputed Kashmir border. Fallen Women in the novel and film Abducted women like Ayah and Hamdia, Lenny’s new nanny are viewed with suspicion from Lenny. Page 226 “It isn’t a jail, Lenny baby…it’s a camp for fallen women.” “What are fallen women?” “Hai! The questions you ask! Your mother won’t like such talk…Now keep quiet” “Are you a fallen woman?” Fallen women – Abducted and raped women In the aftermath of the 1947 declaration of Indian independence, the roughly drawn new state boundaries triggered what may have been the biggest migration in human history. Historical consensus supports a figure of 12 million people displaced, although the BBC suggests figures as high as 14.5 million people. An undeclared civil war erupted as communities of Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs fought one another to establish their own identities in their redefined homelands. And, in the process, the Indian government estimates, 83,000 women were abused and abducted. Others put the number even higher. “Rather than being raped and abandoned,” Yasmin Khan writes in The Great Partition: The ...

Barriers of therapeutic relationshipThe therapeutic relations.docx

rock73

Barriers of therapeutic relationship: The therapeutic relationship between patient and nurse is often filled with barriers that can generate obstacles for the relationship and, in the end, the health system as a whole (Sfoggia et al.,2014). There are many factors that hinder building a therapeutic relationship: language, professional jargon, communication impairment, and cultural diversity (ibid). Language: Language can be an obstacle to nurse-patient communication because a patient may not be able to speak the same language and therefore communication is not possible (Levin,2006). The best way to overcome this barrier is providing a translator who can explain a professional facilitator's message easily to the patient(ibid). For instance, if the nurse only speaks English but the patient is only able to speak Arabic, a translation to the patient of what the professional facilitator is saying leads to less chance of misunderstanding (ibid). Translation also allows a patient to feel comfortable through being able to speak in their own language (ibid). Medical jargon: Jargon is a technical language that is comprehended by people in a specific industry or area of work (Leblanc et al.,2014). Health professionals often use jargon to communicate with each other(ibid). For example, T.B. disease stands for tubercle bacillus and HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus (Mccrary & Christensen,1993). Jargon often makes sense to health professionals but a patient who does not understand these acronyms will not understand such communication, leading to a barrier in therapeutic relationship between patient and health professional (Leblanc et al.,2014). Communication impairment: Patients with communication impairment such as blindness, deafness and speech impairment often feel isolated, frustrated and self-conscious (O’Halloran et al.,2009). Some patients are born with such disabilities or have developed them as a result of disease (ibid). Therefore, nurses should provide enough time in order to describe any issue to such patients so that they do not feel uncomfortable or censured by health professionals, who must remain impartial (ibid). Cultural diversity: Patients often have various differences (Leblanc et al.,2014).Some of these differences are due to a patient's illness, social status, economic class, education and personality(ibid). However, according to Kirkham (1998), the deepest differences might be cultural diversity. Beheri (2009) points out that many nurses believe if they just treat patients with respect, they will avoid most cultural issues. Nevertheless, avoiding misunderstanding can be achieved through some knowledge of cultural customs, which might help and enable nurses to provide better health care to patients (ibid). Facilitators of therapeutic relationship: UNCRPD (2006) states that the most fundamental human right in hospital is communication. Patients are required to be provided with an effective communication method by nurs ...

Barada 2 Mohamad Barada Professor Andrew Durdin Religions of the World Hum 201-02 March 23rd, 2018 References: 1. Rachel. Rachel’s Musings: Buddhism is a Religion. Retrieved from https://www.rabe.org/thoughts-on-buddhism/buddhism-is-a-religion/ 2. Winfield, Pamela. The Conversation: Why so many Americans think Buddhism is just a philosophy. Retrieved from https://theconversation.com/why-so-many-americans-think-buddhism-is-just-a-philosophy-89488 Critical Analysis of the religious nature of Buddhism The religious community often debates on whether Buddhism is categorized as a religion or as philosophical teaching. The answer to the question varies depending on an individual’s point of view. There are three main types of Buddhism practices across the world with each of them having smaller branches with slights variances in their teachings and beliefs. The different styles of Buddhist mainly encompass Theravada Buddhism, Vajrayana Buddhism, and Mahayana Buddhism. The various forms often have deities that are worshipped while others do not. Some often have scriptures while others do not usually believe in any physical form of the Buddhist teachings. The first article is authored by Rachel, a blogger, presenting the argument that Buddhism is a religion (Rachel, 1). On the other hand, the second article authored by Pamela Winfield recognizes Buddhism as a philosophy. Analyzing and comparing the two pieces having divergent views on the religious nature of Buddhism is crucial for understanding whether it is a religion or philosophy. Summary of the articles Rachel in her article considers Buddhism as a religion. The author acknowledges the fact that Mahayana Buddhism which is often found in greater part of Asia that includes Japan, Korea, and China often teaches on attaining enlightenment (Rachel, 1). The Mahayana often accept that every individual wishes to ensure the effective attainment of enlightenment and thus end the cycle of rebirth which others recognize as “Karma.” The article proceeds to state that Buddha is the greatest of the deities but is not worshipped. Instead, Buddha often inspires all those who practice doing as he once did. The author states that Buddhism often requires that the individuals that choose the wrong path attempt to re-accomplish these tasks in their next life alongside other punishments imposed on them by karma. The characteristics of this type of Buddhism thus often play a significant role in showing the religious nature of Buddhism. The author concludes by stating that Buddhism often contains all the different elements of a religion. Moreover, the article associates Buddhism with fallacies that characterize other religions and just as dangerous as other religions as well. A quote proves the claim on the dangerous nature of Buddhism that the author uses to summarize the teachings of Buddhism. On the other hand, Winfield tends to focus on enlightening the readers on some of the aspects of Buddhism that ensures its a ...
