National broadband infrastructure initiatives in several countries have helped expand access, such as programs in South Korea and Japan that built extensive fiber optic networks. In the U.S., the National Broadband Plan aims to bring broadband to more citizens through pending legislation and executive actions. Research shows rural areas, low-income populations, and senior citizens are most at risk of being digitally left behind in the U.S., and efforts try to address these divides. Countries with low broadband access rates tend to have less developed economies and infrastructure in Africa and parts of Asia and Latin America. High-speed broadband is valued by users for benefits like faster internet speeds allowing more data consumption and online activities.

CASE STUDY -1 BA 633: Information Systems Infrastructure. Prof: Fred Rose. NET NEUTRALITY Anvesh Veldandi Student no: 558046. 1. This case focuses on the Net Neutrality debate in the United States. Do some Internet research on international views of Net Neutrality and summarize how views of this issue differ within and across other countries. Network neutrality has been a contentious issue in the United States for several years, but is increasingly debated elsewhere, with the EU, several European countries, and the Japanese government all examining the issue. Net neutrality does not have a single, unanimously accepted definition even within, let alone across, countries. Nevertheless, proponents of net neutrality generally believe that a structure in which the Internet’s intelligence lies primarily at the edges of the network, with the edges connected by relatively “dumb pipes” is responsible for the Internet’s diversity and innovation. They fear that without some regulation broadband providers may discriminate in favor of their own or sponsored applications, or might degrade traffic to sites that do not pay for better quality of service tiers. Net neutrality debates in the U.S. have focused primarily on regulations regarding how broadband providers could price and manage traffic on their networks. The debate in Europe, has generally focused instead on the role unbundling mandatory network sharing can play in keeping networks neutral. Unbundling proponents argue that if the infrastructure provider does not offer retail services or is only one of many retailers offering service over its infrastructure it will have less incentive to discriminate in favor of or against particular content. Unbundling opponents typically do not discuss it in the context of net neutrality, but note that it can reduce incentives to invest in the underlying infrastructure. This paper first examines the net neutrality debate in countries other than United States. It explores net neutrality in the U.K., France, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, South Korea, and Japan. Because net neutrality is another type of mandatory network sharing and because unbundling is a key component of the EU’s general response to net neutrality, the second part of the paper uses a new dataset to test empirically the effects of unbundling on investment in fiber-to-the-home. The net neutrality debate began in other countries much later than it began in the U.S. Most European countries embrace the general idea of net neutrality. While they address the issue differently, most have so far stated that unbundling combined with rules governing firms with significant market power, rather than specific n ...

Access to the Internet has greatly expanded and the focus should now be on the willingness and ability of citizens to use it for productive purposes. The digital divide is now an issue that goes beyond the access gap, but also to be broadened to include underpinning divides, such as quality of access—the speed—and the ability to use it, if efforts to close the gap are to create real benefits. Our latest report Redefining Digital Divide reconsidered the nature of the digital divide and examined the strategies to overcome it in different countries.

According to “TV’s Great Black Hope,” racial and ethnic minorities were underrepresented in U.S. broadcast television in the past. Are they still unrepresented in television programming and advertising? Give reasons for your answer. A more general question is whether the media of mass communication have a responsibility to affect ideas and opinions by their choices of content and production, or whether they should try only to reflect the ideas and opinions already prevalent in the culture. Do you believe that popular culture, as a whole, influences intercultural communication primarily positively or primarily negatively? Be as specific as you can with examples to illustrate your answer. Your answer should be 200-250 words .

Acme Manufacturing Company Steve Arnold is a production manager at Acme Manufacturing Company in New Jersey. When drove into the parking lot at the plant on Tuesday morning at 8:35, he was already 35 minutes late for work. Steve had overslept that morning because the night before he had stayed up late to finish the monthly production report for his department. He parked his car and entered the rear of the plant building. Passing through the shipping area, Steve spotted his friend George Summers and stopped to ask how work was progressing on the new addition to George’s house. Entering the office at 8:55, Steve greeted his secretary, Ruth Sweeney, and asked whether anything urgent needed his immediate attention. Ruth reminded him of the staff meeting at 9:30 with Steve’s boss—Frank Jones, the vice president for Production—and the other production managers. Steve thanked Ruth for reminding him (he had forgotten about the meeting) and continued on to his adjoining inner office to look for the memo announcing the meeting. He vaguely remembered getting the memo in an email one or two weeks earlier, but did not take the time to read it or look at the attached materials. His phone rang, and it was Sue Bradley, the sales vice president, who was inquiring about the status of a rush order for one of the company’s important clients. Steve promised to look into the matter and get back to her later in the day with an answer. Steve had delegated the rush order last week to Lucy Adams, one of his production supervisors, and he had not thought about it since then. Stepping back into the outer office, Steve asked Ruth if she had seen Lucy today. Ruth reminded him that Lucy was at a training workshop in California. She would be difficult to reach until the session ended late in the afternoon, because the workshop facilitators regard cell phone calls and text messages as an unnecessary distraction. Going back into his office, Steve emailed a message to Lucy asking her to call him as soon as possible. Then, he resumed his search for the memo about the meeting with his boss and the other production managers. He finally found it in his large collection of unprocessed emails. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss a proposed change in quality control procedures. By now it was 9:25, and there was no time to read the proposal. He hurried out to get to the meeting on time. During the meeting, the other production managers participated in the discussion and made helpful comments or suggestions. Steve was not prepared for the meeting and did not contribute much except to say that he did not anticipate any problems with the proposed changes. The meeting ended at 10:30, and Steve returned to his office, where he found Paul Chen, one of his production supervisors, waiting for him. Paul wanted to discuss a problem caused in the production schedules by a major equipment breakdown. Steve called Glenda Brown, his assistant manager, .

According to Nieto and Bode (2008), “Becoming a multicultural teacher …means first becoming a multicultural person” (p. 392). Throughout this course, we will discover ways to create multicultural learning environments that are responsive to the needs of children and their families. The first step is to examine our own beliefs about multicultural education. For this assignment, you will: Describe your current beliefs about multicultural education (i.e., how you define it). Complete this step before reading the article and the other source you choose. Create your own multicultural education philosophy statement after reading the Multicultural education article and at least one other scholarly source of your choice. Discuss two to three specific ways to incorporate your philosophy into a multicultural classroom. Discuss two to three obstacles you might encounter when creating a multicultural learning environment and include ways to address these challenges.

According to Fiske (2014), there are “core social motives” that influence human cognition and behavior. The motives include belonging, understanding, controlling, self- enhancing , and trusting , and they are contingent upon an individual’s interpretation of any given situation. An individual’s cultural values, beliefs, and practices can also affect his or her experiences and perceptions, which can in turn influence an individual’s core social motives. For this Discussion, identify a current event that involves multiple people and focus on one particular person in that event. Consider the core motives of the person in the event that might explain his or her behavior. Write a brief description of the current event you selected and one individual involved in the current event. Then describe two potential core social motives that might explain the individual’s behavior in the event and why. Finally, explain one way you might use core social motives to predict individual behavior within your psychology field of interest. More tha 300 words, less than 800. APA format. Turn in on time. .

According to Feenstra (2013): “Social psychologists investigate how people view themselves and others, how they interact with and influence others, and how people act when part of a group. Given the amount of time spent thinking about and interacting with other people, it follows that much of our lives are spent with the subject matter of social psychology.”(p.xix) This is a formal research paper and must be eight to ten pages in length. Imagine that this paper will be used as a reference for individuals who are completely unfamiliar with social psychology principles. This paper will provide them with an overview of the field, and explain the key principles associated with its practice. Include the following components in your research paper: 1. Discovering the Self – How do we perceive ourselves and our interactions with others? a. Self-concept, awareness, and self-schemas b. The acting self c. Self-esteem and self-efficacy 2. Thinking About Others – What judgments do we make about other people? a. Attributions: internal, external, explanatory style b. Attitudes and behavior c. Prejudice, stereotypes, discrimination 3. Influencing Others: Persuasion – How do we use the power of persuasion? a. Persuasion techniques b. Characteristics of the persuader, message, audience 4. Influencing Others: Obedience and Conformity – What factors lead us to conform and become obedient? a. Aggressive behavior and aggression cues b. Prosocial behavior c. Relationship building, love, and attraction 5. Group Dynamics – What are elements of a group? a. Types of groups b. Consequences of Groupthink c. Social dilemmas After addressing the components above, reflect on the future of social psychology. Given the immense changes that our society is experiencing (both nationally and internationally), what do you predict will occur in the field of social psychology? What ground-breaking new research do you anticipate?

“According to child development specialists, one of the most accurate ways to learn about children is to observe them in daily activities” (Wortham, 2012, p. 117). Among the many types of observation discussed in Chapter 5, anecdotal records, running records, time sampling, and event sampling are widely used in schools and centers across the nation. For this discussion, you will begin to develop a plan for the observation types you will use in your written assignment this week, which involves the observation of an actual child. Here is what you are asked to do: Choose either anecdotal or running records. Describe the record type and explain its characteristics. Discuss whether you will be observing social/emotional development, physical development, cognitive development, or language development (choose one), and what the purposes are for assessing that domain. Next, choose either time sampling or event sampling. Describe the sampling method and tell what its characteristics are. Discuss whether you will be observing social/emotional development, physical development, cognitive development or language development (choose one that is a different domain from above) and what the purposes are for assessing that domain. Attached is an example of the anecdotal and running record as well as the time and event sampling.

According to the text, crime has been part of the human condition since people began to live in groups. Ancient documents indicate that conduct we now call murder, theft, or robbery was identified as criminal by civilizations that existed thousands of years ago. Criminal laws regulate human conduct and tell people what they can and cannot do and, in some instances, what they must do under certain circumstances. In this assignment, you will explore different types of criminal conduct and the goals of criminal law. Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you: Determine whether or not a conviction is feasible when an alleged perpetrator does not have the required mens rea but has engaged in the actus rea. Provide a rationale to support your position. Explain the distinction between diplomatic immunity and legislative immunity. Next, support or criticize the premise that diplomatic immunity is vital for Americans abroad. Argue for or against the theory that the courts should not hold a defendant of questionable competency to the standard sentencing guidelines. Provide a rationale to support your response. Identify the four (4) goals of criminal law, and discuss the manner in which these four (4) goals effectuate the purpose of protecting the public and preventing the conviction of innocent persons. Use at least three (3) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar type Websites do not qualify as academic resources. Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements: Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length. The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are: Describe the nature and history of American criminal law. Explain the role of individuals and federal, state, and local government agencies in crime fighting and prosecution of criminal offenses. Analyze the essential legal elements of criminal conduct. Use technology and information resources to research issues in criminal law. Write clearly and concisely about criminal law using proper writing mechanics. .

According to the lecture: The dominant group places the blame for disadvantage on the disadvantaged, based on assumptions about group characteristics such as lack of motivation, cultural preferences, or other victim-blaming ideas. On the other side, resistance to change and a seeming refusal to open the doors of opportunity are interpreted as racist or sexist attempts to deny dominant group members their rights, strategies to oppress and exploit them, or simple hatred. While arguments for and against both sides can be made, none are very useful in addressing the real issue – inequality itself, and its costs to the society at large. You live in a middle class suburban area in the northeastern portion of the U.S. A building planning board has been approached to have a federally-funded homeless shelter in a suburban town. Advocates for the shelter presented architectural plans for a five-story building that would contain 200 hotel-style rooms. This shelter would provide privacy and dignity to those who were homeless. The advocates noted that most of the homeless population in the area is comprised of women and children. In addition, most of the homeless belong to a group called the working poor. They are working but do not earn enough income to afford housing. The board will be meeting today to decide the approval of the shelter.e.
