Research Paper Using Literary Criticism and a Biographical Source
Essay #2
Choose one work of literature from the list below. Brainstorm a list of what most interests you about this work. Then, using the scholarly database, get one source of literary criticism about the work, one source about the film, and one about the author. Write a short summary of the work of literature as well as one summary about each source, and then I will meet with you to help you focus on one particular aspect of the work, for example, one theme, one symbol, one character, or one particular use of symbolism.

Questions
1. List and briefly describe what you believe are the three most important steps Hotel Paris management can take now to reduce the likelihood unions will organize more of its employees.

2. Write a detailed outline for a “What You Need to Know When the Union Calls” manual. Lisa will distribute this manual to her company’s supervisors and managers, telling them what they need to know about looking out for possible unionizing activity, and how to handle actual organizing process-related supervisory tasks.

Literature Review:This is where you’ll review the current state of the literature concerning your research topic. You’re welcome to include more than the minimum of 6 articles and you can include as many reviews/meta-analyses as you want (but only one can count toward the 6 article total). Start this section with a general overview of the topic and why it’s important, then dive into critiques of individual articles. When discussing a particular article you should start with a description of the research question or aim of the study, then discuss the methodology (sample size, sample selection methods, methods of measuring each variable, confounds that were controlled for, etc.), and briefly summarize the findings. You will close with a discussion of the methodological strengths and weaknesses of the study. This last portion is worth paying special attention to. Be sure to consider as many topics from lecture as possible (e.g., confounds, external validity, internal validity, etc.). Each article summary/review should be a page to a page and a half. Proposed study:Discuss the methodological weaknesses that were common to the overall body of literature you reviewed. Which areas of knowledge or methodology need to be filled in? What questions should be asked to further our understanding of the topic? Both the hypothesis and methodology of your study should directly tie in to the articles you reviewed. Your hypothesis should be a natural extension of those article’s findings and your experiment’s design should address the overall methodological weaknesses you identified in the literature.

Your completed assignment must be submitted by 11:59 pm on Sunday, April 26. No work after that time will be accepted.

Explain the traditional western view of the enduring self as well as one challenge to this view presented in Chapter 2. Which view do you find more compelling and why?

Dynamics of diversity drive attention towards decisions and how they are negotiated. But there is a paradox to consider: While decision steps are central to your management authority, there is limited information within success stories and case studies about these details. This situation becomes problematic when there are a range of cultural expectations. In contrast, exploring how to making decisions by being attentive to diverse views adds power and analytical skill to your management performance.

You can observe important lessons about your decision/negotiating process by look at a memorable or “turning point” event in which you recall a decision and how it was negotiated, or not.

In what ways was that decision effective?
Was the decision negotiated? Why or why not?
Would that process work effectively if there were diverse viewpoints? (Course Content Modules 10 &11)

In this assigment you will need to answer the following 7 questions. The first Four can be bullet points detailed response, the other two, long responses.

Please identify FOUR of the following terms. A good answer will address: who, what, where, when, and—most importantly—why the term is important in the context of the class. The “why” will be worth 10 points and the other questions combined will be worth 10 points, for a total of 20 points each, or a total of 80 of the 200 points of the exam.

You may answer in bullet points or in sentences, as you prefer.

Do not identify more than four terms. If you do, delete one. Otherwise, we will grade the first four answers. We will not grade all and take the best four.

— Identify (WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and most important WHY): for EACH:

1.) Enlightenment
2.) Marie Antoinette
3.) Triangle Trade
4.) Martin Luther

Then,
Please compose a brief detailed response to BOTH with a clearly articulated thesis that answers the question and evidence to back up your thesis. A good essay will demonstrate that you understand the terms you are using. The answer must be written in the form of an essay; that is, you must answer in full sentences and paragraphs, not in bullet or outline form. It will be at approximately 2 pages long, although essays will obviously vary in length depending on how concise you are, the size of your writing etc. A longer essay in no way guarantees a better grade but a short answer lacking detail will not earn full credit.

You should also consider both literate and illiterate audiences. Would the event have happened without propaganda (esp. printed propaganda)? Would it have played out differently? Be sure to include some examples of propaganda that we examined in class.

Your answer to the first part of the question should include several examples from class, while your answer to the second part should be your own analysis.
