February 5th, 2021 Computer science, Undergraduate Comments Off on Secondary Research on Collaborative Tools

Secondary Research on Collaborative Tools

Use the Secondary Research handout to find resources about collaborative communication technologies in the professional culture you chose for Project #1. While searching, consider using search terms like “communicating/working/ researching/writing” “technology/technologies/apps/programs” in __<enter field/profession/discipline>__.

**Activities 1 and 2 in the Secondary Research handout should be completed after you’ve spoken with your group members so you can select a style guide and search terms** This means you will need to reach out to your group to discuss these decisions.

Remember that a collaborative tool is any technology that is being used to aid in collaboration. For example, in this class, we’re using Google Drive, and in the last assignment, you looked up project management apps and video conferencing programs. These are all examples of collaborative tools. Some professions/fields might call these types of applications or programs by another name, so you might need to do some digging on what terms will work best for your search.

February 5th, 2021 APA (edition "APA 6"), Social Sciences Comments Off on Disabilities and elderly abuse

Disabilities and elderly abuse

Consider why persons with disabilities are considered a vulnerable population. Share with others experiences you may have had with individuals born with a physical ailment, children or adults with cognitive delays, people who may have suffered a traumatic brain injury (i.e. possibly due to an accident, effects from war, etc.). What have you learned about challenges that impact their lives, that you may not have considered without this personal experience? Research programs that exist (America, or globally) to better integrate persons with disabilities into society and mitigate the disparities they face. Develop your own list of opportunities/programs/activities that can better support people with various disabilities. Consider the Micro and Macro approach to your thinking, and develop at least one idea per level. Why do you feel these may be viable solutions? What may be some of the barriers that these ideas face?

Elder abuse in America, and around the world, is a social problem that may not be recognized. To gain a better understanding, use the following website to gain background information: https://www.ncoa.org/public-policy-action/elder-justice/elder-abuse-facts/.
Define elder abuse, and explain what makes an older adult vulnerable. What has been done in the past, in your own state, or in another part of the world to educate, prevent, or mitigate the effects of elder abuse? Have these solutions been effective? What about current solutions? Explain if current solutions are more effective.

February 5th, 2021 Law, MLA Comments Off on Discrimination Writing Assignment

Discrimination Writing Assignment

Discrimination Writing Assignment:
You must do your own work and use Turnitin. I will not accept any paper that has any cut and
paste material. See Syllabus.
Like all papers youll submit, formatting is: 1 margins all around, double spaced, Times New
Roman 12-point font.
There is 3-page minimum, one page per question. The more work you do, the better your
score. I can tell when a student has done the work and when they have waited until the last
minute to throw something together. Dont be in that latter group.
Question 1:
When employers discriminate against applicants or employees they do so in two general ways: 1)
intentionally, or through adverse treatment, or 2) unintentionally, or through adverse impact.
Research these terms and, in your own words, identify how discrimination that occurs
intentionally differs from discrimination that occurs unintentionally. Give an example each.
Question 2:
Sometimes, it is permissible for employers to intentionally favor a protected classification over
all other protected classifications because the favored protected classification is the only one
that can perform the job. The employer intentionally discriminates against all other
protected classifications. This amounts to legal discrimination! For example, if an employer
needed to hire a surrogate motherthen the employer would naturally need a woman for the
job, since a man could never be a surrogate mother. Likewise, if an employer wanted to hire
a sperm donor, it would be required to hire a man, since a woman could never perform that
job. When an employer intentionally discriminates, it argues that the favored protected
classification is a BFOQ. Research that term and in your own words describe how an
employer may argue that it is necessary to discrimination based on the other protected
classifications identified in Title VII, such as religion. Please note: it is possible to
successfully argue that a BFOQ is necessary for every protected classification except one. In
your paper, identify the protected classification that can never be the basis for a BFOQ.
Question 3:
Much discrimination is based upon stereotypes. Research what this means and in your own
words describe various stereotypes that commonly lead to discrimination in the workplace. What
should an employer to do ensure that stereotypes do not influence decision making?
