What will you be working on between now and when progress report #2 is due?

Answer each of the following questions regarding your project progress
What have you completed since finalizing your project topic and data collection
methodology?
Have you completed your data collection?
Did you encounter any unexpected problems?
What will you be working on between now and when progress report #2 is due?
You might need to finish up on your data collection if you have not yet completed
it.
For data analysis, you should be planning on some some combination of the
below items to better understand your data but should NOT think you need to use
every one of them:
Percents and/or other rates
Possible grouping of responses when the variety/range of the answers
you received is too large to be manageable
Construction of tables
Construction of charts/graphs, some examples of which are:
Single-variable graphs include bar/column graphs, pie charts, and
histograms
Time series line graphs
Two-variable (paired data) graphs include scatter plots,
side-by-side bar/column graphs, and stacked bar/column graphs
Calculation of measures of center (mean, median, and/or mode)
Calculation of measures of position (percentiles, quartiles)
Calculation of measures of variation (range, inter-quartile range, standard
deviation)
Calculation of linear correlation and regression coefficients for paired
quantitative variables
The statistical process is described in broad terms in section 1.1 of our course textbook with
literally the rest of the book covering detailed classifications and procedures. So far, how does
your project work compare to what you learned in MyStatLab? Write a paragraph (at least 3
complete sentences) that either summarizes the overall comparison or that highlights some
particular item(s) you found notable. For example, you might describe how your data collection

STEP 2:
At this point you would want to have completed your data analysis and have a reasonable idea
of how your data addresses your project topic. Keep in mind your data might not have gone the
way you “wanted” it to, but that will happen sometimes. Unfortunately, we cannot always be
“right.”

Answer each of the following questions relating to your project progress:
What have you completed since submitting progress report 1?
Did you complete everything you intended to? If not, was what you completed
enough for you to get to know your data and plan a submission format to share
your data and findings? Is there more you need to do in order to get to know
what your data is telling you?
What submission format are you most likely to use for the completed project? Instead of the usual research report, have you considered something more exotic, such as a video, a magazine article, or a website? My recommendation is to create a website because of the flexibility it allows you.
If you completed your data analysis and have a reasonable understanding of how
your data relates to your project topic, you will need to decide on a format and
put together a project submission.
IMPORTANT: You might not need/want to include all of your analysis
items in your submission. For example, if you determined that you
collected data on an irrelevant variable, you might not include any tables
or graphs relating to that variable in your submission. In this case, it
would be best to just to mention somewhere in your submission that you
looked into the variable and did not find it relevant to your topic.
If you are not done with your data analysis, what will you do to finish it up then
create a suitable submission by the due date?
IMPORTANT: If things did not go the way you “wanted” them to, it is NOT
a good idea to try to re-start your project by collecting new data. For this
class, it is better that you include as a part of your conclusion that the
data collected does not support the position you thought it would.
Be sure to take a look at the scoring rubric in the submission and self-evaluation
assignment so you are aware of what is expected in order for you to be eligible
for full credit.
As you did for the first progress report, think about what you have learned in MyStatLab and
what you have learned in your continued work while working on this project. Write a paragraph
(at least 3 complete sentences) that either summarizes the overall comparison or that highlights
some particular item(s) you found notable. For example, you might describe how what you
learned from creating graphs for your data either reinforced or changed your perception of data
presentation as it was covered in chapter 2. Your paragraph might be quite similar to the one
you submitted in the first progress report but since you have going through different parts of the
statistical process, don’t be surprised if you have new insights (and/or frustrations).
work reinforced or changed your perception of sampling as it was covered in MyStatLab.

HERE IS A YOUTUBE THAT MY PROJECT SHOULD BE LIKE

Define the strategy, scope, and action plan that you will use to complete the capstone project.

Write a business proposal that formally proposes your capstone project and ends by asking for permission to continue, just as you might propose a project to a supervisor or client.

Include, at minimum, the following information:

Analyze a business challenge or opportunity.
Include an introduction about your proposal.
Summarize the capstone project topic, scope, and components; saying that your capstone will comprise a paper and presentation is not enough.
Establish the premise of your paper; for example, if your plan is to talk about how Dillard’s department store can come back after a huge financial loss, you should include citations that establish its dramatic financial loss.
Define the strategy, scope, and action plan that you will use to complete the capstone project.
Provide a general action plan on how you will research, analyze, and identify recommendations or solutions to this business challenge or opportunity.
Discuss the general type of data sources you will be using to inform your analysis. Provide at least two specific sources that you are considering. These resources should be from credible sources such as the Wall Street Journal, IBIS, et cetera. Use the excellent Research Guide MBA for locating credible resources from the Capella library’s business databases and article collections.
Include the process or steps on how you will access the data necessary for analysis of a business topic or challenge.
Explain how you will apply your leadership strengths (as identified in your BetterUp assessment results) and BetterUp coaching experience to support the various aspects of your project.
Discuss how you will leverage your strengths, as uncovered in the BetterUp leadership strengths assessment, to the various aspects of your project, such as recommendations or business solutions. Also identify how you will address your leadership gaps that could impact or weaken your recommendations and solutions.
Discuss how you can use the leadership coaching to assist you in completing a capstone project that you feel proud of and that allows you to effectively demonstrate your leadership skills and achievement of all program outcomes.
Address how you can use coaching as a development tool to enable you to grow and develop as a leader.
Write a conclusion.
Include a wrap-up that ensures your supervisor/client that your project will meet all requirements, be valuable to them, and be completed on time.

Discuss The Constitutional Rights Foundation.

After reading the webpage [LINK BELOW] of the Constitutional Rights Foundation, you must write two paragraphs- the first explaining the philosophy espoused by an Enlightenment philosopher that is most effective in implementation. Secondly, select and discuss the theory (note the philosopher) that you deem lacking in judgment and is/would be mostly ineffective in execution.

St. Augustine in the 5th Century held that we are free to make choices in life. This is the idea of free will. It may seem at first glance odd for a religious thinker to say that we have free will. After all, if God exists, then God created all things. God knows already what we will do. God can cause anything to occur. If we cause things to occur, that seems to be a limitation on the power of God and not make God all-powerful.

There are also religion traditions that say that we have no free will. There are some theologians in Islam who seem to suggest that is true. In order for this line of reasoning to hold true, one would need to believe free will is an illusion and that we have no control over how we live our lives, but rather that we are puppets moving and acting due to God’s will and the powers of destiny and fate. And if this then in the case, how can we possibly be responsible for our actions?

The considerations above show us to what degree our religious beliefs can shape us. For instance, someone who believes in free will may experience way more guilt than someone who believes we don’t have free will and thus aren’t responsible for the choices (and consequences) of the actions we take.

Personal struggles with religion and ethics occur in many places, including in the healthcare arena. Consider the following: You are a nurse in a hospital. A 12 year-old was brought to the hospital by an ambulance. The parents have just arrived at the hospital. This 12 year-old has lost a large amount of blood and requires a transfusion. The parents happen to be members of a religion that believes that blood transfusions are immoral. They want to remove the child from the hospital and prevent the transfusion even if it means the death of the child. You have to decide whether or not you will participate in an action that violates the will of the parents and aid in providing blood for the child. If you choose to participate, and even if you are able to legally justify it, you have to think about the distress you are creating for the parents. If you refuse to aid here, you may be subject to retaliation from the hospital. What is the moral thing for the nurse to do here?

Initial Post Instructions
For the initial post, address the following questions:

What would a divine command ethicist say is the moral thing to do here? Why would they say that? Do you agree with the divine command ethics? Why or why not?
Evaluate what a natural law ethicist would say is right to do. Do you agree with them? Why or why not?
Given what you said are the right things to do, what would an emotivist say about your positions and judgments? What role does subjectivity play here in determining what is ethical?

Follow-Up Post Instructions
Respond to at least two peers or one peer and the instructor. Further the dialogue by providing more information and clarification.

What are the advantages of a four-day workweek?

As a manager at Skin Essentials, a mineral-based skin care products and natural cosmetics company, you are convinced that the company’s 200 employees could switch to a four-day workweek with many resulting benefits. You took a quick poll of immediate employees and managers and found that 80 percent thought that a four-day workweek was a good idea.

What are the advantages of a four-day workweek? What organizations have already tried it? What appeals could be used to persuade management to adopt a four-day workweek? What arguments could be expected, and how would you counter them? Prepare a one-page persuasive e-mail or memo addressed to the Skin Essentials Management Council. Decide on a goal. Do you want to suggest a pilot study? Should you meet with management to present your ideas? How about starting a four-day workweek immediately?
