In this paper, you will analyze a media text defined as a film or TV/streaming show (or a scene or character within), song lyrics, newspaper article, blog post, social media post or article, website, book, magazine, advertisement, or commercial. The more narrow and specific the text, the more focused the analysis, typically a good thing. Through the lens of gender and communication, you’ll examine how the text uses language and/or nonverbal cues, analyzing its impact on the text itself and its audience. This analysis must include a description of the media text as well as an application and synthesis of course material (lectures and readings). Additional external scholarly sources are also required for more in-depth investigation.
LA6570 Human Resource Law Directions for Final Paper This course contains a final paper that is worth 250 points. You are required to write a 2000-2500 word paper, approximately eight-ten pages, that identifies an issue within an organization of your choice, related to one or more topics covered in this class. You will then be asked to develop a risk management plan to mitigate liability for this organization related to these issues. For example, this organization may have had a complaint about some type of discrimination. Please describe the situation, identify relevant laws and company policy, describe how the situation should have been handled, and create a plan to reduce future risk. Your paper should include the following: · A brief description of the situation · Identification of legal issues involved · A review of relevant organization/company policy · A review of applicable laws · A comparison between how the organization handled the situation and how it should/could have been handled · A risk management plan to mitigate the organization’s future liability · Your recommendations to the organization This paper is designed to give you the opportunity to demonstrate your comprehension of human resource law by identifying issues, relating them to the law, and creating plans to reduce organizational liability in the future. You should utilize outside sources when appropriate to support your analysis and recommendations – specifically utilizing corporate information sources, professional journals, peer-reviewed sources, and court cases. Any additional questions should be discussed with your instructor as early as possible during the course.
Research in child development is about how something in the environment is related to something in the child. These two things are called factors. Imagine two factors that might relate to eachother 1) One must be an aspect of the environment and 2) One must be an aspect of the child’s development or behavior. How do you think they are related? Do you think the environmental factor causes positive or negative change in the child? Now form your thoughts into a research question that can be studied. The question must be specific enough so that you know exactly what you are assessing in both the environment and the child. The question should be general enough that you can get variation, meaning differences in the environmental variable between the people you study, for example if you want to know how exercise affects energy level you need to study people who do different amounts of exercise, if they all do the same amount you won’t be able to make any comparisons. Here are some examples of research questions: Do the kinds of conversations parents have with their children between the ages of 3 and 4 affect the children’s language development at age 5? How does watching violent tv at home affect children’s agression levels during recess? Is there a difference in the quality of homework between 1rst graders who are cared for by: parents, a babysitter, or an afterschool program between the hours of 3:00 and 6:00? Each of these questions has specific Variables that can be studied. For example in question 1 the variables are: 1)Parent-child conversations and 2) children’s language development a year later Can you identify the variables in the next 2 questions? -How does watching violent tv at home affect children’s agression levels during recess? -Is there a difference in the quality of homework between 1rst graders who are cared for by: parents, a babysitter, or an afterschool program between the hours of 3:00 and 6:00? Although these variables have been defined there are other factors besides the variables that may influence the results of the study. These are called confounds. For example in question 1 confounds may include: -The children’s innate language ability -The amount of time the parent spends with the child -Whether the child is enrolled in preschool or other programs and the quality of these programs Each of these confounds could influence the child’s language development at age 5 above and beyond the parental conversations, and it’s possible that parents who have “high quality” conversations also send their children to high quality preschool. In that case the researcher will have to separate which variable is having the greater effect on children’s language development, their variable of interest (conversations) or the confound (preschool). Can you think of confounds that might affect studies of the other 2 questions? Researchers can control for confounds by their sampling, ie: include only children who do not attend preschool in the study, by questionnaire, ie: ask parents if their children attend programs and assess the quality of the program, or by any other method that takes the confound into account. Now it’s your turn: Respond to this lecture in Discussion Board Answer the following question based on the example above:
