Review the Learning Resources and the media programs related to correlation and regression. Search for and select a quantitative article specific to your discipline and related to correlation or regression. Help with this task may be found in the Course guide and assignment help linked in this week’s Learning Resources. Also, you can use as guide the Research Design Alignment Table located in this week’s Learning Resources. By Day 3 Write a critique of the article. In your critique, include responses to the following: What is the research design used by the authors? Why did the authors use correlation or bivariate regression? Do you think it’s the most appropriate choice? Why or why not? Did the authors display the data? Do the results stand alone? Why or why not? Did the authors report effect size? If yes, is this meaningful?
Conduct SMS research then write a research paper on the topic selected: the history, evolution and future of the safety management systems.
After learning about several ways in which our everyday actions impact climate change, choose one action to conduct more research on and create a PowerPoint presentation to tell us more! Use the unit material and reliable online resources to gather more information.
There are several ideas with information throughout the unit but there is even more information out in the world! Think about what you do every day, and how the activity uses energy or natural resources. Think about a product you buy—how it was made, what natural resources were used to make it? You can also do a quick google search of “everyday activities that effect the environment” and start reading some articles for more ideas.
Remember to use reliable sources from the Internet. There is a lot of misinformation out there and finding reliable information can be difficult. The best sources of reference material for your presentation are scientific journals found in the CSU Online Library databases. Click here for a biology research tutorial that demonstrates how to locate library resources relating to biology You can also find reliable statistics at organization websites listed in the Unit under “Combat Climate Change.”
Your presentation must include:
1. What everyday activity or product have you chosen to present? Why did you choose this activity or product? Why is it important?
2. Connect the activity/product to its impact on the environment and climate change.
How does doing the activity or making the product use natural resources, disrupt habitat, impact wildlife or other effects on the environment?
3. Report data and statistics, with references, on how this activity/product effects the environment.
4. What can people do to decrease the activity/product’s impact on the environment?

In the workplace, we are often asked to create “briefs.” A brief provides a snapshot, or short, written summary, of a situation or event that has occurred. It is generally just a few pages long and may include additional visuals like a graph, chart, or table. In this assignment, write a brief about economic concepts in an industry that interests you.
List and briefly describe the advantages and disadvantages inherent to the food truck business model as compared to traditional restaurants.
2a. On a typical day in Kamloops, how many “Ripped Pig” sandwiches must be sold in order to break even?
2b. Comment on Cat and Joe’s breakeven point (calculated in Part a). Should this number be relevant to the entrepreneurs?
2c. If Cat and Joe wish to make a $100,000 profit for the year (after tax), how many pulled pork sandwiches must the Pig Rig sell each day? Assume all days are in Kamloops at regular prices.
3. Prepare a contribution-format income statement for one day’s business at the Pig Rig based on optimistic, realistic, and pessimistic projections for a regular, nonevent day in Kamloops.
4. Prepare a contribution-format income statement for the Bullarama event based on an optimistic projection (no onsite competitors), a conservative projection (one onsite competitor), and a pessimistic projection (two onsite competitors).
5. What are the nonfinancial advantages and disadvantages of attending Bullarama?
6. Assume Cat and Joe were told that they should expect one onsite competitor. Would you recommend they stay in Kamloops for the day or go to Bullarama? Justify your answer with both financial and nonfinancial data.
Compare and contrast the various change management models. Provide a brief overview of your comparison. Which models have you seen implemented in the workforce? Next, recommend which change model you would use when implementing your new HRIS, and explain why you would use the selected model.
