In this Discussion you will analyze the role of technology in global events, using this week’s Learning Resources and Week 4 Notes and Readings. To prepare for the Discussion: Consider the following: Do you follow people on Twitter? Do you tweet, use Pinterest, Facebook, or instant message your friends? How often? Revisit the “Tweeting Towards Freedom” article in thisweek’s Notes and Readings. Consider if there a downside to have so much access? Identify an example of how new communication technologies have had an impact on the world stage and the impact it made. Consider how the immediacy of communication can impact the spread of information about world events-both good and bad. By Day 3 Post a response (at least 200–300 words) to the following prompt: Not long ago, we had to wait for the evening news or morning newspaper to find out what happened in the world. In today’s technological world we have instantaneous access to global events. Some believe that the nature of instantaneous access to global events has strong political impact.

Rapid technological progress has already become a commonplace. Due to the impetuous development of technology, the relationship between people had undergone significant changes, in particular, the tools, by which people communicate with each other. The paper will be focused on social media, in particular, on the human dependency on social media. Social media has identified the trends in the development of the Internet in the direction of integration, by combining features into single multi-user web-based platforms (Deen, 28). These platforms allow users to chat with friends, read news, watch movies, listen to music, share the information with other users, take part in discussions, create community, and all these opportunities are concentrated on one site. Social Media first appeared with the American portal Classmates.com, in 1995. The project has been very successful, which led to the emergence of more than dozen of similar services in the next few years (The History of Social Networking). Nevertheless, the official start of the boom of social media, in particular, social networks, is considered to be the period of 2003-2004, when there were launched Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn (The History of Social Networking). It is important to note that LinkedIn was created in order to establish/maintain business contacts, while MySpace and Facebook were based primarily on meeting human need for self-expression.

This teaching note should not be used in any way that would prejudice the future use of the case. Copyright © 2020, Ivey Business School Foundation Version: 2020-02-07 In January 2017, Michael Medline was appointed chief executive officer (CEO) of the Canadian grocer Sobeys Inc. (Sobeys), which was experiencing financial difficulties. Medline was tasked with saving Sobeys from near insolvency and planning strategically for the company’s core grocery business. He devised an interim growth plan called Project Sunrise, which had two main objectives: quickly relieving Sobeys of its troubled financial situation and preparing for the long-term industry disruption that was becoming prevalent, both locally and globally. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Students can assess Medline’s road map for the execution of Project Sunrise and learn how to develop and apply a long-term plan for a company facing industrywide disruption. After completion of this case, students will be able to accomplish the following objectives:  Evaluate the priorities for action identified by the CEO.  Develop an action plan for the company to avoid bankruptcy.  Develop an action plan for the company to manage the imminent industry disruption. POSITION IN COURSE This case is suitable for courses in undergraduate, graduate, and executive education programs. It can be used in courses that focus on strategy, change, managing disruption, turnarounds, and competitive repositioning.

81 Journal of International Studies © Foundation of International Studies, 2015 © CSR, 2015 S ci en ti fi c P ap er s Wuhan, Li Suyuan, Adnan Khurshid Ocean University of China China [email protected] Abstract. Th e main reason of this study is to test the interest rate impact on investment in Jiangsu Province of China. Jiangsu has the largest quantity of investment in China. For long run, nexus Johansen Co-integration test is employed. Whereas, vector er- ror correction model (VECM) is used to fi nd short run association over the period of 2003-2012. Th e results indicate that there is a long-term relationship association among variables. It has negative relation in the long run but positive in short run. Th is research also produces suggestions that will help in terms of interest rate policy as well as improving investment that promotes economic growth in Jiangsu Province. Keywords: Interest rate, investment, Jiangsu Province, VECM JEL Codes: E40, E20, C22 INTRODUCTION Changes in interest rates can refl ect the basic situation of the operation of macro economy; it also eff ects all the macroeconomic variables such as GDP, price level, the level of employment, international balance of payments, the rate of economic growth, etc. Obviously the interest rate is an important economic variable that plays an important role in both macro and micro economy activity. Th erefore, a change in interest rates is one of the main factors to judge the macroeconomic situation and the interest rate trend analysis is the main method to predict the macroscopic economic situation. Western economists believe that the market rate of interest, the total social savings and investment are closely linked. Th erefore, the current interest rates aff ect the investment activities. At the same time, current interest rates also aff ect the scale of investment in the future by adjusting the savings. If the interest rate rises, bond prices fall, if the interest rate falls, bond prices rise. Th e infl uence of interest rate on investment scale is operate as the opportunity cost of investment on total investment, Under the condition of unchanged in investment income, the rising interest rates increase the cost of investment and then inevitably cause lower income investors to withdraw from the area of investment, so that the demand for investment is reduced. However, falling interest rates means that investment costs decline, thereby stimulating investment and the total social investments increase.

8/29/16 f_ch02.docx: 45 Chapter 2 From Public Regulation to Private Enforcement How CSR Became Managerial Orthodoxy Richard P. Appelbaum The safety and well-being of workers across our supply chain is the Responsible Sourcing group’s top priority, which is why Walmart suppliers are contractually required to sign our Standards for Suppliers before they’re approved to produce merchandise for sale at Walmart. These Standards for Suppliers make clear our fundamental expectations for suppliers and factories regarding the treatment of workers and impact on the environment. Suppliers are also required to display our Standards for Suppliers in the local language in all factories where products are made for us, so workers know our expectations of suppliers and factory management. —Walmart 2014 Global Responsibility Report, Statement on Compliance and Sourcing Walmart, the world’s largest corporation in 2015, invests in “comprehensive social audits across our global supply chain.” Its factory audits—reportedly often unannounced—are conducted by “independent accredited and internationally recognized auditing firms.” Factories are then said to be reaudited every six to twenty-four months, based on the results. This comprehensive auditing system is designed to verify that factories “meet or exceed” Walmart’s standards, which include assurance that all labor is voluntary, prohibitions against child labor, requirements that hours are 8/29/16 f_ch02.docx: 46 not excessive (and are consistent with local laws or regulations), and that factories provide safe and healthy working conditions (Walmart 2014). On November 24, 2012, a fire at the Tazreen Fashion apparel factory in Dhaka, Bangladesh, claimed 112 lives and injured 200 others, making it the deadliest factory fire in the history of a country long plagued by factories fires. Workers found themselves trapped by the absence of safe and accessible fire exits, windows blocked by iron grills, a lack of adequate fire preparedness training, and the fact that the building was at the time under construction: five additional stories were being added to the original three-story structure, even as garment production continued as usual. In this unsafe environment, ten workers perished on Tazreen’s fifth floor, where they were sewing Walmart’s Faded Glory shorts. Walmart, one of the many companies producing garments at the factory (Maquila Solidarity Network 2012b), 1 claimed it was unaware that its Faded Glory shorts were being sewn at Tazreen through a subcontracting arrangement. Yet the factory’s owner reported that Walmart’s local office had audited the factory a year earlier, finding only problems with excessive overtime. A Walmart spokesperson confirmed this, acknowledging that the company had conducted at least two inspections in 2011, but claiming that Walmart had stopped production “many months before the fire” (Yardley 2012). .

8. On the likely aftermath and long term effects of the coronavirus outbreak on business and society (Module 12) This discussion board is devoted to the likely aftermath and long term consequences of the coronavirus for business and society. We will be posting some reading material related to this topic in Module 12. respond 1 Effects of the Coronavirus Outbreak on Business and Society The coronavirus outbreak has not only led to a massive loss of life globally but also altered social and economic structures in a manner that will persist for a long time. As the pandemic continues devastating communities across the globe, wealth has emerged as the best defense against catastrophes. Wealthy individuals have invested in systems that allow them to work from home to minimize interactions and avoid contracting the virus (Bonacini et al., 2021). Less wealthy individuals cannot afford to stay at home because most of them rely on daily wages to meet their basic needs. Additionally, low-income earners might not avoid interactions because most of them live in places with crowded housing. Moreover, Covid-19 has increased the health burden on low-income earners while decreasing job opportunities. Therefore, the pandemic is likely to exacerbate the economic inequality in society because the rich are amassing more wealth while the poor are suffering from high unemployment. Besides increasing inequality, the pandemic will transform working habits in the future owing to company responses to regulations aimed at curbing the virus’s spread. At the onset of Covid-19, governments established regulations to restrict people's movement. These rules have changed business practices, promoting working from home and demonstrating the importance of technology in the corporate world. The change from working in offices to operating from home is likely to be permanent because most employers are beginning to question the purpose of a workplace. Over time, companies will establish effective policies to facilitate working from home, making it the new norm in business. Likewise, organizations will embrace technology more to serve customers who have shifted to online shopping to decrease physical interactions. Reference Bonacini, L., Gallo, G., & Scicchitano, S. (2021). Working from home and income inequality: Risks of a ‘new normal’ with COVID-19. Journal of Population Economics, 34 (1), 303-360. respond 2 ong Term Effects of COVID-19 on Business and Society As we can and have seen, there have been and will continue to be long-term effects on how COVID-19 can and will impact business and society moving forward. Businesses will likely see a resurgence of possible re-closings. Depending on where you're located in our country, many businesses that were able to re-open may have to close again due to sparks in new COVID-19 cases. While it seems more people are no becoming vaccinated, the likelihood of this is still very evident. Many companies have learned from ini.

776! CHAPTER 26 Rococo to Neoclassicism: The 18th Century in Europe and America appealed greatly to Watteau’s wealthy patrons, whom, even as he was dying from tuberculosis, he still depicted as carefree and at leisure in his most unusual painting, Signboard of Gersaint (!"#. 26-7B). François Boucher. A$er Watteau’s death brought his bril- liant career to a premature end at age 36, F%&'()"* B)+,-.% (1703–1770) rose to the dominant position in French painting, in large part because he was Madame de Pompadour’s favorite artist. Although Boucher was an excellent portraitist, his success rested primarily on his canvases depicting shepherds, nymphs, and god- desses gracefully cavorting in shady glens engulfed in pink and sky-blue light. Cupid a Captive (!"#. 26-8) presents a rosy pyramid of infant and female /esh set o0 against a cool, leafy background, with /uttering draperies both hiding and revealing the nudity of the 1gures. Boucher used the full range of Italian and French Baroque devices—the dynamic play of crisscrossing diagonals, curvilinear forms, and slanting recessions—to create his master- ful composition. But he dissected powerful Baroque curves into a multiplicity of decorative /ourishes, dissipating Baroque drama into sensual playfulness. Lively and lighthearted, Boucher’s artful Rococo In Pilgrimage to Cythera (!"#. 26-7), luxuriously costumed lovers make a “pilgrimage” to Cythera, the island of eternal youth and love, sacred to Aphrodite. (Some art historians think that the lovers are returning from Cythera rather than having just arrived. Watteau provided few clues to settle the question de1nitively.) 2e elegant 1gures move gracefully from the protective shade of a woodland park 1lled with play- ful cupids and voluptuous statuary. 2e poses of the 1gures, which blend elegance and sweetness, are hallmarks of Watteau’s style, both in ambitious multi1gure compositions such as Pilgrimage to Cythera and in single-1gure studies such as L’Indi!érent (!"#. 26-7A). Watteau prepared his paintings using albums of draw- ings in which he sought to capture slow movement from di3cult and unusual angles, searching for the smoothest, most poised, and most re1ned attitudes. As he experimented with nuances of posture and movement, Watteau also strove for the most exquisite shades of color di0erence, de1ning in a single stroke the shimmer of silk at a bent knee or the shine appearing on a glossy surface as it emerges from shadow. 2e haze of color, the subtly modeled shapes, the gliding motion, and the air of suave gentility tinged with nostalgia 26-7B WATTEAU, Signboard of Gersaint, 1721. 26-7 A!"#$!% W&""%&', Pilgrimage to Cythera, 1717.

8 | New Scientist | 4 January 2020 THE tropics are the most biodiverse regions on Earth. Now there is evidence that they are also the main source of evolutionary innovation and diversity. Complex animals have dominated Earth for 541 million years, a time span called the Phanerozoic eon. Huge numbers of species have evolved and gone extinct during this time, in a complex story that includes fish, giant reptiles and whales. However, in the 1980s palaeontologist John Sepkoski analysed the overall pattern of evolution in the sea, where the fossil record is best. He concluded that marine evolutionary history could be broken down into three supergroups, which he called “great evolutionary faunas”. The first group was dominated by trilobites, which resembled woodlice, and bristle worms; the second by shellfish-like creatures called brachiopods; and the third by molluscs, which have persisted to the present day. Other animals like land mammals probably followed similar patterns, but their fossil record isn’t complete enough for us to know. Now, by analysing nearly 18,300 marine genera from the Phanerozoic fossil record, Alexis Rojas-Briceno of Umeå University in Sweden and his colleagues have found that the evolution of complex marine life is best described using four great groups of fauna, not three (bioRxiv, doi.org/dg98). The first supergroup existed between 541 and 494 million years ago, spanning the Cambrian explosion in which many animal groups first emerged. As in the original analysis, trilobites dominated. The second supergroup, dubbed the Palaeozoic, lasted from 494 to 252 million years ago. Creatures with hard outer shells were now widespread, including brachiopods. This phase ended when the end- Permian extinction wiped out almost all complex life on Earth. This matches Sepkoski’s analysis, but the new study splits his third great fauna into two. In this version, the third supergroup is called the Mesozoic. It began in the wake of the Permian extinction and ended 129 million years ago, in the middle of the dinosaur era. This time cephalopods, the group that includes squid and octopuses, were the rulers. The fourth and final supergroup, the Cenozoic, is still dominant today. During this time, clams and snails have made up much of the diversity. The team found that all four supergroups originated in the tropics, then expanded through the oceans. This is in line with the idea that the tropics are hotbeds of evolutionary innovation, which has been promoted by David Jablonski at the University of Chicago. It may be that the warmer temperatures and ample sunlight ensure there is plenty of food to nourish a multitude of species. However, John Alroy at Macquarie University in Australia isn’t convinced. “I have always been sceptical about the out-of-the-tropics hypothesis, because they have never seriously dealt with sampling biases, as far .

7 HYPOTHETICALS AND YOU TESTING YOUR QUESTIONS 7: MEDIA LIBRARY Premium Videos Core Concepts in Stats Video · Probability and Hypothesis Testing Lightboard Lecture Video · Hypothesis Testing Difficulty Scale (don’t plan on going out tonight) WHAT YOU WILL LEARN IN THIS CHAPTER · Understanding the difference between a sample and a population · Understanding the importance of the null and research hypotheses · Using criteria to judge a good hypothesis SO YOU WANT TO BE A SCIENTIST You might have heard the term hypothesis used in other classes. You may even have had to formulate one for a research project you did for another class, or you may have read one or two in a journal article. If so, then you probably have a good idea what a hypothesis is. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this often-used term, a hypothesis is basically “an educated guess.” Its most important role is to reflect the general problem statement or question that was the motivation for asking the research question in the first place. That’s why taking the care and time to formulate a really precise and clear research question is so important. This research question will guide your creation of a hypothesis, and in turn, the hypothesis will determine the techniques you will use to test it and answer the question that was originally asked. So, a good hypothesis translates a problem statement or a research question into a format that makes it easier to examine. This format is called a hypothesis. We will talk about what makes a hypothesis a good one later in this chapter. Before that, let’s turn our attention to the difference between a sample and a population. This is an important distinction, because while hypotheses usually describe a population, hypothesis testing deals with a sample and then the results are generalized to the larger population. We also address the two main types of hypotheses (the null hypothesis and the research hypothesis). But first, let’s formally define some simple terms that we have used earlier in Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics. SAMPLES AND POPULATIONS As a good scientist, you would like to be able to say that if Method A is better than Method B in your study, this is true forever and always and for all people in the universe, right? Indeed. And, if you do enough research on the relative merits of Methods A and B and test enough people, you may someday be able to say that. But don’t get too excited, because it’s unlikely you will ever be able to speak with such confidence. It takes too much money ($$$) and too much time (all those people!) to do all that research, and besides, it’s not even necessary. Instead, you can just select a representative sample from the population and test your hypothesis about the relative merits of Methods A and B on that sample. Given the constraints of never enough time and never enough research funds, with which almost all scientists live, the next best strategy is to take a portion of a lar.
