Below are the characteristics of Realism--pick one piece of literature. Then, pick three of the characteristics below and explain how the piece of literature you chose is a good example of them. This response should be (at least) 250-300 words in length. Definitions Broadly defined as "the faithful representation of reality" or "verisimilitude," realism is a literary technique practiced by many schools of writing. Although strictly speaking, realism is a technique, it also denotes a particular kind of subject matter, especially the representation of middle-class life. A reaction against romanticism, an interest in scientific method, the systematizing of the study of documentary history, and the influence of rational philosophy all affected the rise of realism. According to William Harmon and Hugh Holman, "Where romanticists transcend the immediate to find the ideal, and naturalists plumb the actual or superficial to find the scientific laws that control its actions, realists center their attention to a remarkable degree on the immediate, the here and now, the specific action, and the verifiable consequence" ( A Handbook to Literature 428). Many critics have suggested that there is no clear distinction between realism and its related late nineteenth-century movement, naturalism . As Donald Pizer notes in his introduction to The Cambridge Companion to American Realism and Naturalism: Howells to London , the term "realism" is difficult to define, in part because it is used differently in European contexts than in American literature. Pizer suggests that "whatever was being produced in fiction during the 1870s and 1880s that was new, interesting, and roughly similar in a number of ways can be designated as realism , and that an equally new, interesting, and roughly similar body of writing produced at the turn of the century can be designated as naturalism " (5). Put rather too simplistically, one rough distinction made by critics is that realism espousing a deterministic philosophy and focusing on the lower classes is considered naturalism. In American literature, the term "realism" encompasses the period of time from the Civil War to the turn of the century during which William Dean Howells, Rebecca Harding Davis, Henry James, Mark Twain, and others wrote fiction devoted to accurate representation and an exploration of American lives in various contexts. As the United States grew rapidly after the Civil War, the increasing rates of democracy and literacy, the rapid growth in industrialism and urbanization, an expanding population base due to immigration, and a relative rise in middle-class affluence provided a fertile literary environment for readers interested in understanding these rapid shifts in culture. In drawing attention to this connection, Amy Kaplan has called realism a "strategy for imagining and managing the threats of social change" ( Social Construction of American Realism ix). .

There are a total of 4 discussion questions bellow and I need it to be no less than 150 words. Thanks. Student 1. Ethical Organizational Communication Rachel Danner 12/3/2013 4:33:25 PM The three governing principles of ethical communication are honesty, equity and avoiding harm (Kreps, 2011). All three are very important in ensuring that communication through advertising and marketing. Honesty means that there is truth in the information given out during interorganizational communication. This means there is no intentional deception in the information that is being given to the customers, regulators or competitors. It is very important for companies to be honest in their advertising so that customers get what they are expecting. Advertisements draw in customers, but if they get there and find there experience is different than what was advertised, they are likely to lose trust in the company and may never use them again. An organization must also be equitable to be ethical. This means that the company practices fair and impartial practices (Kreps, 2011). Companies that are equitable do not exhibit unfair trade practices or create monopolies. This is important in interorganizational communication because it ensures that companies are fair in advertising and marketing. This means that in an ideal world there would be no unfair advertising that blames or puts down another company. Personally if I see a company that advertises unfairly like this I avoid using their products and their company as much as possible. If a company use fair advertising I use their products and promote them by word of mouth and through my social media connections. The last ethical principle of communication is avoiding harm. This means that it is a businesses responsibility to ensure that they do as little harm to the environment and the public as possible (Kreps, 2011). This is important, especially in today’s world because of the threats of global warming and climate change. A company has a responsibility to promote environmentally friendly products and reduce the spread of harmful chemicals that may be used in manufacturing. This is important in ensuring the long-term health of the people and the planet. Reference: Kreps, G.L. (2011). Communication in organizations . San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc.

Bellevue College | Chemistry 162 1 Empirical Gas Laws (Parts 1 and 2) Pressure-volume and pressure-temperature relationships in gases Some of the earliest experiments in chemistry and physics involved the study of gases. The invention of the barometer and improved thermometers in the 17th century permitted the measurement of macroscopic properties such as temperature, pressure, and volume. Scientific laws were developed to describe the relationships between these properties. These laws allowed the prediction of how gases behave under certain conditions, but an explanation or model of how gases operate on a microscopic level was yet to be discovered. After Dalton’s atomic theory was proposed in the early 1800’s (that matter was composed of atoms) a framework for visualizing the motion of these particles followed. The kinetic molecular theory, developed by Maxwell and Boltzmann in the mid 19th century, describes gas molecules in constant random motion. Molecules collide resulting in changes in their velocities. These collisions exert pressure against the container walls. The frequency of collisions and the speed distribution of these molecules depend on the temperature and volume of the container. Hence, the pressure of a gas is affected by changes in temperature and volume. You may already think that the relationships between pressure, volume, temperature, and number of gas molecules are intuitive, based on your ability to visualize molecular motion and a basic understanding of the kinetic theory. The simple experiments that follow will allow you the opportunity to confirm these relationships empirically, in a qualitative and quantitative manner. In essence, you will play the role of a 17th century scientist (with some 21st century tools!) and discover the laws for yourself—laws and constants that are still in use today. In this experiment, you will:  Determine the relationship between the volume of a gas and its pressure (Part 1).  Determine the relationship between the temperature of a gas and its pressure (Part 2). Figure 1. The Kinetic Theory considers gas molecules as particles that collide in random motion. Bellevue College | Chemistry 162 2 Note: If you are doing Part 3 to determine the value of the Universal Gas Constant, R in the same period as Parts 1 and 2, you should get Part 3 started first. Part 1: Pressure-Volume Relationship of Gases In Part 1 you will use a gas pressure sensor and a gas syringe to measure the pressure of an air sample at several different volumes to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of air at constant temperature. Figure 2 Procedure 1. a. Plug the gas pressure sensor into channel 1 of the computer interface. b.

Being able to use research and apply findings to programming is the basis for success. Knowing how to provide information to the media and then evaluating the results is a key driver. In this Assignment, you will have an opportunity to observe and evaluate public relations at work in real events and situations. It may be challenging to identify the role of public relations in a situation. You will find it helpful to look at the source for the information - for example, company reports, independent research, or a third party. Look also at how the information was delivered - for example, whether by a spokesperson, company website, or press conference. To prepare: Choose a news story from your Weekly News Review. The story you select should involve a topic or situation in which public relations had a role such as community or consumer issues or products, finance or investment, sports or entertainment, government affairs, nonprofits, or corporate change, such as restructuring, new management, or new product development. The situation in the story should also meet the following criteria: It involves more than one of the organization's target audiences. It appears in more than one type of media outlet. It is significant or complex enough to require involvement from top management (as spokesperson, as authority, etc.). In a Word document, complete the following steps: Write three media relations output objectives that you believe would have been or should have been used by the public relations practitioner involved in the story. At least one objective should be written to include a social networking media outlet, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter. Write three media relations outcome objectives that you believe would have been or should have been used by the public relations practitioner involved in the story. At least one objective should be written to include adapting to a new social networking media outlet. Write a simple 10-question survey or a 1-hour focus group guide that would help the organization to plan its next steps. Weekly News Review CNN BBC ABC CBS NBC Fox News MSNBC NPR .

Being competitive is very different than achieving sustainable competitive advantage. Achieving competitive advantage needs to be a core part of strategy and instilled within the management philosophy so that the organization will continually be innovative and entrepreneurial and this strategy is the foundation of the organizational culture. Competitive advantage requires organizations to do the following: · Adapt to external environmental changes · Be customer driven and focused · Have flexible strategies and processes that can meet the needs and diverse requirements of customers, suppliers, distributors, regulators, and stakeholders · Be able to quickly respond to the fast pace of change in the environment by recognizing and taking advantage of opportunities that emerge · Proactively meet and exceed the needs of customers in light of existing competition · Actively engage in R & D to continuously prioritize the development of new products, services, processes, markets, and technologies Organizations that are more adaptable, focused, flexible, responsive, proactive, and engaged in R & D are in a more favorable position not only to adapt to the complex, dynamic external environment but to generate change within that environment and sustain competiveness. Innovation and entrepreneurship are the key sources of sustainable competitive advantage as evident from leading entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson (Virgin Group), Bill Gates (Microsoft), Pierre Omidyar (eBay), and Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook). Continuous innovation, entrepreneurial activity, and an ability to bring about positive changes are the key success factors (KSFs) that define corporate performance in the dynamic, complex, knowledge economy of the 21st century. The Role of Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Strategy in Achieving Sustainable Competitive Advantage Innovative and entrepreneurial organizations develop a strategy that can effectively lead to the commercialization of the new and novel products or services in the marketplace with a sustainable competitive advantage. Strategic management and entrepreneurship are dynamic processes that are intended to enhance organizational performance (Kuratko & Audretsch, 2009). Strategic management focuses on how competitive positioning can create advantages for organizations that, in turn, enhance performance (Porter, 1980, 1996) and achieve sustained competitive advantage. Strategic planning requires top management to focus beyond the current external environment and envisage the organization's market position in the short, medium, and long term. It necessitates the ability to evaluate the resources and core competencies in terms of how they can be utilized to create new sources of value. Innovation and entrepreneurship are the key to successfully developing competitive advantages. The challenge is to develop innovation and entrepreneurship as a core competence of the organization. In a global competitive economy, the most successf.

Being enrolled in the MS in Child and Adolescent Developmental Psychology program has truly added to my personal and professional growth. First of all, the program has allowed me to virtually meet many colleagues within the educational/psychology field. I have learned a lot from reading my colleagues discussions and opinions. The program has allowed me to organize my time better and become more responsible. For example, many personal plans were cancelled due to studying (which I have learned to appreciate). As an elementary teacher, I normally used to refer Special Educational Needs students to the school’s SEN department. There is only so much you can do as a teacher! However, this program has helped me understand learning disabilities, developmental pathways, psychological disorders and much more. I’ve found the course material to be very useful when it comes to interventions and helping children. Now, I can hopefully utilize my new knowledge in the classroom. Most importantly, this program has taught me to become more sensitive towards the unique needs of children/adults. Being an advocate of social change is important. “In many societies around the world, teachers are looked upon as the individuals who can help to bring about positive changes in the lives of people.” (Bourn, 2016, p. 63). Learning, global education and education development are closely related to personal and social change elements (Bourn, 2016). Studies suggest that teachers need to look beyond raising awareness of specific issues; they needs to encourage students to have their own voice, take action and promote their own unique skills to make a difference (Bourn, 2016). The MS program has taught me to create my own mission of social change to inspire children (students) to act in positive manners. I will try my best to be a social change agent within my classroom by fighting harmful stereotypes, applying theory/ evidence based information to practice, creating an anti-bias environment and educating ‘the whole child’, focusing on their social-emotional development in addition to their learning experiences. To contribute to social change, I must be knowledgeable about specific problems and the reasons contributing to those problems. To contribute to social change, I will try to allow students to practice how to think, instead of what to think. Finally, one person who has truly offered their support during the entire program is my husband, Karim. Karim has offered much emotional support and encouragement during these 2 years, he also offered help and advice. These 2 years have passed by very quickly! He was truly patient and understanding while listening to many of my psychological analyses (many of them could be wrong I presume :D) . I dedicate my degree to him and ofcourse to all my colleagues and professors in the program who were supportive. Reference Bourn, D. (2016). Teachers as agents of social change.

Behaviorism versus The Cognitive Revolution Resources Discussion and Participation Scoring Guide . In his article "The Origins of Cognitive Thought," B. F. Skinner makes the following derisive comment about the rise of cognitive psychology and cognitive science beginning in the 1950s: The battle cry of the cognitive revolution is 'Mind is back!' A 'great new science of mind' is born. Behaviorism nearly destroyed our concern for it, but behaviorism has been overthrown, and we can take up again where philosophers and early psychologists left off (p. 17). Have advances in cognitive psychology and cognitive science truly overthrown behaviorism? What applications are there today for behaviorism? What evidence do you have to support your position? Please answer the discussion question by completing the following: Refer to and integrate ideas presented in the text and any supplemental readings. Cite outside resources if necessary to make your point. Follow APA style guidelines for citations and references. You will be evaluated on how well you can demonstrate that you understand the ideas presented throughout the unit, including assigned readings, discussions, and independent investigations.

Behavioral Public Choice: The Behavioral Paradox of Government Policy W. Kip Viscusf & Ted Gayer” I. Overview W hat are the economic justifications for governm ent inter vention in the economy? In a m arket economy, prices coordi nate the activities of buyers and sellers and convey inform ation about the strength of consum er dem and for a good and the costs of supplying it. Because trade is voluntary, buyers and sellers only m ake exchanges w hen both parties benefit. Under ideal m arket conditions, this process leads to an efficient alloca tion of goods w ithout governm ent intervention. However, economics has long recognized instances in which markets can fail to lead to an efficient outcome. The long-standing view is that either market power or the nonexistence of markets causes market failures. Market power is present w hen some indi viduals or firms are price makers (for example, monopolists) ra ther than participants in a perfectly competitive environment. Such situations typically lead to the production of a less than effi cient quantity of goods. The problem of market power is the pur view of industrial organization economics and antitrust policy. * 1 The nonexistence of markets, or the failure of a robust market to arise, can occur for a num ber of reasons, such as asymmetric in formation (when one party in a transaction has information that is not available to another) and public goods (when a good is non rival and nonexcludable in consumption and thus likely to be un- * University Distinguished Professor of Law, Economics, and Management, Vanderbilt Law School, 131 21st Ave. South, Nashville, TN 37203.

Another cause for the nonexistence of markets is externalities, which occur when transactions impose costs or benefits on a third party that are not considered in the market exchange. A classic example is when a factory produces and sells a good to a consumer to their m utual advantage, but the pollution generated by the production of the good has a negative impact on the health of nearby residents. A market for the clean air in the affected area would not emerge if high transaction costs of organizing the pollution victims prevented the parties from negotiating.2 The market system will fail to internalize the health costs imposed by the factory's operations and lead to inefficiently high production and health consequences. For about a century, economists have argued that policymakers should rely, when possible, on market-based principles in design ing regulations to address thes.

Being a critical consumer of messages is more important than ever in the increasingly mediated society that we live in. This means being able to analyze all messages for purpose, audience, intended message, and effectiveness. The skills learned from analyzing media messages can also be used in analyzing all messages – whether the messages are from the mass media, computer mediated communication (CMC), coworkers, our children, other family members, friends, or other sources. Therefore, you will need to analyze messages for purpose, audience and intended message. First, view five advertisements (commercials). Any medium is acceptable; i.e. television, the Internet, etcetera. Your five advertisements should be relatively new (from the last 6 months) and from different products or services. Then, analyze each of the advertisements and explain your thoughts on the following questions. Provide specific examples and information from the class material to support your analysis. Use the Unit 10 Assignment template to explain each of the five advertisements. Include these elements per advertisement: What is the product/ service of the advertisement? Where did you see the advertisement? Medium, time, day and other information (TV or Internet site, etc.) Note: If from an Internet site – needs to be an ad with both visual and audio elements (not just a written ad). Who do you think is the intended audience? Does the advertisement seem to adhere to basic ethical standards of persuasion in terms of forthrightness, completeness and honesty? Or does it use manipulation? In general, is the advertisement ethical or not. Explain with specific examples. Do the visual message and the nonverbal codes match the verbal message? Explain why or why not with specific examples from the advertisement. What is the goal of the advertisement? Is it successful? Explain with specific examples from the advertisement. What are the strengths of the advertisement? What are the weaknesses of the advertisement? Identify and explain any faulty reasoning with the messaging in the advertisement. Explain the role media has had in shaping our culture and society. Explain the importance of being a critical receiver of mass media messaging. .

Behavioral responses to annual temperature variation alter the dominant energy pathway, growth, and condition of a cold-water predator Matthew M. Guzzoa,1, Paul J. Blanchfielda,b, and Michael D. Renniea,c,d aDepartment of Biological Sciences, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB R3T 2N2, Canada; bFreshwater Institute, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Winnipeg, MB R3T 2N6, Canada; cDepartment of Biology, Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, ON P7B 5E1, Canada; and dIISD Experimental Lakes Area Inc., Winnipeg, MB R3B 0T4, Canada Edited by Mary E. Power, University of California, Berkeley, CA, and approved July 11, 2017 (received for review February 17, 2017) There is a pressing need to understand how ecosystems will respond to climate change. To date, no long-term empirical studies have confirmed that fish populations exhibit adaptive foraging behavior in response to temperature variation and the potential implications this has on fitness. Here, we use an unparalleled 11-y acoustic telemetry, stable isotope, and mark–recapture dataset to test if a population of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush), a cold- water stenotherm, adjusted its use of habitat and energy sources in response to annual variations in lake temperatures during the open-water season and how these changes translated to the growth and condition of individual fish. We found that climate influenced access to littoral regions in spring (data from telemetry), which in turn influenced energy acquisition (data from iso- topes), and growth (mark–recapture data). In more stressful years, those with shorter springs and longer summers, lake trout had reduced access to littoral habitat and assimilated less littoral energy, resulting in reduced growth and condition. Annual variation in prey abundance influenced lake trout foraging tactics (i.e., the balance of the number and duration of forays) but not the overall time spent in littoral regions. Lake trout greatly reduced their use of littoral habitat and occupied deep pelagic waters during the summer. Together, our results provide clear evidence that climate-mediated behavior can influence the dominant energy pathways of top predators, with implications ranging from individual fitness to food web stability. food web | climate change | habitat coupling | lake trout | north-temperate lake There is growing urgency to understand how ecosystems areresponding to climate change (1, 2). Recent work, using latitudinal gradients as proxies to warming, has argued that the behavioral responses of mobile top predators to changing temperatures can drive fundamental shifts in aquatic food webs by altering the coupling of major energy pathways (3, 4). Although this work is intriguing, no one has yet examined long-term empirical data that have explicitly tested if populations of top predators can shift their foraging behavior in response to annual changes in temperature or has evaluated what implications this might have for individual fitness.
