This journal is focused on the process of acculturation and how you became a member of a specific culture of your choice. I want you to focus on acculturation and not enculturation because the process of enculturation can be difficult to remember if it’s something that we have been a member of since birth.
You should pick one culture that you belong to and go through your process of becoming a member and the traits/characteristics/practices that you are now involved in within that culture.
Your paper should be at least 2 pages in length and follow the formatting guidelines on the syllabus. Unlike the first journal, this will be a traditional essay format with a brief intro, at least 2 paragraphs, and a brief conclusion.
Checklist
Briefly discuss what the culture is and what traits/characteristics/commonalities exist within that culture. Write this as if we are completely unfamiliar with the culture; assume we know nothing about it.
Showcase the beginning of your involvement. What got you interested? Who was the first person to show you? What was the defining moment that made you believe that you were a member?

Chapter 3 discusses several major EEO laws and regulations. However, every year, human resource professionals struggle to keep up with the latest employment regulations and trending workplace issues. Local, state and federal laws change frequently and impact today’s workforce.
For this article review assignment, you are asked to review an online article about the changing legal environment of human resource management. Do not simply use a website or blog as your source of information. The article must be a feature article published within the last year by a reputable source such as Harvard Business Review or industry publications such as HR Exchange Network, HR Magazine, HR Morning, etc. A list of resources has been provided under Course Resources.
The article should be a minimum of 1,000 words in order for you to be able to fulfill the requirements listed below. If the article is too short, it will be difficult to summarize and provide comments that meet the paper length requirements set forth below.
This is not an opinion paper, nor is it an opportunity to regurgitate the article. The purpose of this assignment is to allow you to understand the connection between the chapter material (textbook and website materials) and the “real world.” Simply quoting from the article, with no application of concept, will not allow for the optimal outcome. Be careful not to
plagiarize; this will result in a grade of zero.
After selecting your article, please follow these instructions to complete the article review assignment. The review should be divided into the following sections using these headings:
Section I: Article Summary – In this section write a clear, organized summary of the article. This should be a concise, thoughtful discussion of the key points of the article. This summary should be written in your own words; do not simply provide quotes from the article.
Section II: Application of Textbook Concepts – Explain concepts from the article in relation to terms or concepts from the textbook. Do not just write a textbook term and define it in relation to the article. Develop the information as the article relates to the material presented in the textbook or website.
Section III: Article Analysis – Explain how the specific legislation has changed or evolved since publication of the textbook, or if it is anticipated to change in the near future. How will the change (or anticipated change) impact the workforce? What new insights were you able to glean about the legislation as a result of reading the article?
After reading the week’s chapter and your articles discuss the risks of avoiding confrontation with a problem employee.
Write a research paper using evidence to support a thesis that addresses your research question examining a current issue or event in the news from the perspective of your field of study. The audience is people who are generally educated but do not have extensive knowledge of your field or topic.
