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?

Market Research
Part 2: Identify a Marketing Research Problem
Marketing research is the process of gathering and interpreting data for use in developing, implementing, and monitoring an organization’s marketing plans. Its key elements are the product or service, its price, its placement or the channels in which it is distributed, its promotion, the tangible elements at the point of contact, and the processes and people involved in making the exchange or delivering the service. In this regard, marketing research is used by marketers and managers to make key marketing decisions.
There are many different types of organizations that conduct marketing research. In this Discussion, you will explore the impact marketing research has on marketing decision-making in relation to different types of organizations. You will demonstrate a comprehensive understanding and expert-level usage of interpersonal skills to embody a professional demeanor using all of the following skills: communication skills, problem solving, decision-making, listening skills, negotiation, and assertiveness. Execute the following requirements in a PowerPoint presentation, and ensure you convey your audio and visuals in a professional manner using appropriate communication and presentation skills.
Identify one organization from the following categories:
Producers of Products and Services (e.g., Coca-Cola, Microsoft, Disney, etc.)
Advertising Agencies (e.g., MEC, McCann WorldGroup, etc.)
Marketing Research Companies (e.g., Nielsen Company, Arbitron, etc.)
Conduct research and discuss how the organization uses marketing research.
Write about research for the company selected in each category. (Three companies three types of market research used)
Explain the type of marketing research the organization produces or needs (see pages 10 and 11 in your textbook).
Part 2 should be in an audio/visual Microsoft PowerPoint presentation.
Respond to the questions in a thorough manner, providing specific examples of concepts, topics, definitions, and other elements asked for in the questions. Your paper should be highly organized, logical, and focused.
Your paper must be written in Standard English and demonstrate exceptional content, organization, style, and grammar and mechanics.
Your paper should provide a clearly established and sustained viewpoint and purpose.
Your writing should be well ordered, logical and unified, as well as original and insightful.
A separate page at the end of your paper should contain a list of references, in APA 6th edition format. Use your textbook, the Library, and the Internet for research.
Be sure to use in-text citations where appropriate and reference all sources. Your sources and content should follow proper APA 6th edition citation style. For additional help with expository writing style, persuasive writing style, PowerPoint, and APA 6th edition formatting, please visit the Writing Center, accessed through the Academic Success Center within the Academic Tools area of the course. (Your paper should include a title page, be double-spaced in Times New Roman 12-point font, include correct citations, use Standard English with no spelling or punctuation errors, and list correct references on the reference page.)
Business Problem
Part 1: Propose a Marketing Research Study
Business owners and managers often identify problems they need help to resolve. In such situations, additional information typically is needed to make a decision or to solve a problem. One solution is a marketing research study based on a scientific research process. In this Assessment, you are on a quest to identify and develop a problem statement for a marketing research study.
Using the Random Scenario Generator (RSG), you will select an industry, business problem, and geographic market in which you will select a single business entity. You will be prompted to select 1 of the 3 options for each of the variables. Once you have selected from each variable category, the resulting scenario is to be the basis for your work on this Assessment. Each students scenario will be documented.
You will compose an expository paper to identify necessary information about the business problem, develop a marketing research problem statement, and propose research questions for your RSG industry by completing the following steps:
Step 1. Identify and Clarify Information Needs: You can learn a lot about a company by engaging in several different activities to define an existing problem (see pages 3234 in the textbook), including:
Conduct secondary research about your chosen organization to identify any existing problems the organization may be experiencing.
Visit the organization’s social media pages and websites to identify a problem the organization may be experiencing.
If possible, contact the organization and ask them what problems they may be experiencing related to the RSG situation.
Step 2. Situation Analysis: Once you have identified a marketing-oriented problem to research for your chosen organization, conduct a situation analysis (SWOT and/or PESTLE analysis) to critically analyze the internal and external marketing environment of your chosen organization in order to understand the complete marketing problem situation.
Step 3. Diagnose the Marketing Problem: Define the problem in a concise purpose statement. Determine the consequences of not addressing certain issues by considering the urgency or immediacy of the issue. Diagnose the marketing problem to identify the root cause and differentiate it from the symptoms of a marketing problem.
Step 4. Develop the Marketing Research Problem: Discuss the organization you chose and explain the industry in which they operate, the markets they serve, and the problem you identified and would like to study.
Step 5. Support with Research: Conduct a brief literature review using secondary research resources to uncover relevant theories related to the research problem under study. Synthesize a minimum of three peer-reviewed research resources in your writing.
Step 6. Research Questions: Formulate a minimum of three probing research questions. Interpret the problem definition and purpose of the study to aid in the formulation of the research questions. Explain how interpreting problem definition stimulates critical thinking.
anne Phillips view
In “Must Feminists Give Up on Liberal Democracy?” Anne Phillips writes that “while liberal democracy has signally failed to deliver on its promises to women, it does not help to address these failings in terms of giving up on liberal democracy.” Do you agree or disagree with Phillips’ view? By drawing on the academic literature we have been studying in this course, please take a position on Anne Phillips’ views. Make sure your answers are informed by and engage with the relevant course material. The average length of your original post should be around 400 words.
February 5th, 2021 MLA, Philosophy Comments Off on choose one of the question to answer based on Korzybskis Structural-Differential and the associated red-pill/blue-pill diagrams count altogether as one source. choose one of the question to answer based on Korzybskis Structural-Differential and the associated red-pill/blue-pill diagrams count altogether as one source.
written on one (1) of the questions
Please note that you are REQUIRED TO SUPPORT YOUR IDEAS WITH DIRECT QUOTATIONS. Good paraphrasing (including detailed descriptions of the diagrams) is important too, but there must be at least three direct quotations from the text-based reading for the assignment. Page references must be provided in brackets or by a citation method of your choice.
Please note that, for purposes of the Essay, Korzybskis Structural-Differential and the associated red-pill/blue-pill diagrams count altogether as one source. After all, the pill diagrams are just Bizarro/colonial Structural-Differentials. Except for question 4, it is crucial that you fully understand the meanings of the diagrams and relate them in detail to the other source. Your writing process should start from quotations from the readings and precise analysis of the diagrams, not vague feels from the audio-lectures.
the QUESTIONS
1. Explain how the political and social dynamics that produced the CBC in the 1920s demonstrate the uniquely explicit relation between blue-pill and red-pill ideas and also the idea of a no-pill/ new leaf epistemology in Canada.
Sources: the Structural-Differential, the blue-pill/red-pill diagrams, Magic in the Air and God in the Air (excerpts from The Microphone Wars) by Knowlton Nash.
2. Explain Gregory Batesons theory of natural systems as abstracting systems (with conscious purpose as a kind of extreme and potentially dangerous extension of the abstracting process) with reference to the Structural-Differential and the blue-pill/red-pill diagrams.
Sources: the Structural-Differential, the blue-pill/red-pill diagrams, Conscious Purpose Versus Nature (excerpt from Steps to an Ecology of Mind) by Gregory Bateson
3. Drawing on the scientific insights of both the Structural-Differential and Horowitzs ethological perspectives, explain how the limitations of humans sensory capabilities can lead to problems in our relationships with nonhuman animals. Compare and contrast anthropomorphism and Uexklls concept of umwelt as two different approaches to relating with nonhuman animals across sensory divides.
Sources: the Structural-Differential, the blue-pill/red-pill diagrams, Umwelt: From the Dogs Point of Nose (excerpt from Inside of a Dog) by Alexandra Horowitz
4. Explain the contrast between the human and the Cetacean umwelt. How does the analog- digital relation operate differently in the communication systems of each species (or family in the case of Cetaceans)? How might we more precisely imagine the communicative matrix of the Cetaceans?
Sources: Umwelt: From the Dogs Point of Nose (excerpt from Inside of a Dog) by Alexandra Horowitz, Some Problems in Cetacean and Other Mammalian Communication (excerpt from Steps to an Ecology of Mind) by Gregory Bateson
5. The Structural-Differential proposes a semantically (i.e. both sensorily and conceptually) reliable map of the differences between what we say the label levels and what we sense the object level and between both of those levels and W.I.G.O. whatever is going on at the Event Level. But Korzybski, though he did advise children should be taught with the structural differential from the age of kindergarten, was not so foolish as to believe an infant would be born with that scientific sense of order.
Explain Daniel Sterns concept of the Weatherscape as one demonstrating a fundamentally different experience from the sense of order that the Structural-Differential models. Six-week old Joey does not have an object level she IS the object level (and in some sense, almost is closer to the Event than we). And yet she (or he, as in Sterns text) is already developing the epistemological sense we all naturally develop when we learn language. Where do we find the roots of the ability to sense Structure and to Differentiate in the midst of the Weatherscape?
