demonstrate the skills that you have been developing throughout the semester in presenting and evaluating philosophical arguments/theories.

This final paper will be an expository presentation and evaluation of one argument/theory from any of the readings we have done this semester.
Your paper should focus on:
1) briefly introducing the topic and your thesis in the introduction,
2) reconstructing and presenting an argument or theory from a selected primary text, and
3) evaluating the argument/theory (i.e., take issue with, or defend, some aspect of the argument/theory).Additional Guidelines:
– You must have a thesis and argue for it. The thesis you will end up defending should be made
clear early in the paper (i.e., in the introductory paragraph).

Special Problems and Challenges and the Future of Policing In America

Modern law enforcement operations and strategies are driven by best practices in the areas of data collection and manipulation, addressing special populations, and preventing organized criminal activities. A tremendous amount of specialization has evolved in today’s sphere of policing, especially among federal, state, and local agencies. Perhaps, what is most evident is how the law enforcement agencies of the federal government have retooled to meet today’s challenge of terrorism. Use your textbook, the Internet, and / or Strayer library to research credible sources on the aforementioned issues as they relate to law enforcement operations and management.** 1. Identify and describe the major functions of the four (4) agencies of the Department of Justice. Of the four agencies, provide a rationale for which agency you feel has the greatest responsibility as it relates to federal law enforcement. 2. Explain the purposes of the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) and the National Crime Information Center (NCIC). Identify and discuss the various weaknesses related to the accuracy of the Uniform Crime Report (UCR). 3. Describe the major roles of police executives using the Mintzberg model of chief executive officers. Of the executive roles described in the model, provide a rationale for which role you feel is the most important for a chief executive officers success. 4. Examine two (2) legislative enactments that are in place to help combat terrorism. Provide your opinion on the effectiveness of these enactments in regards to combatting terrorism. 5. Analyze the problems related to determining the actual numbers of hate crimes and what makes hate crimes different from other crimes. 6. Use at least four (4) quality references including the textbooks. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources. Textbook: Peak, K. J. (2014). Policing America: Challenges and best practices (8th ed.). NJ: Pearson Publishing. Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the students name, the professors name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length. Subject: Criminal Justice

Consider the sheer multiplicity of formal and informal groups, structures, tasks, functional operations, and individual interactions that exist and occur within very large organizations; these are seemingly endless.

Some organizational theorists would assert that an organization’s culture cannot be “managed” in the truest sense of how one “manages” the processes and activities and things that exist within an organization. David Campbell (2000, p. 28) says that an organization “is being constructed continuously on a daily, even momentary [italics added], basis through individual interactions with others. The organization never settles into an entity or a thing that can be labelled and described, because it is constantly changing, or reinventing itself, through the interactions going on within it.” At the same time, Campbell says that an organization “does have a certain character to it, such that, like driving on the motorway, not just anything goes” (p. x). Consider as well the potential number (and combination) of individual to individual, individual to group, and group to group interactions that are likely to occur on a momentary basis within an organization (and then, there are the seemingly endless numbers of contacts/interactions with external stakeholders as well). The possibilities are seemingly infiniteor at least they are indefinite. For this reason, organizational culture seems more abstract, fragmentary, perhaps fluidperhaps even relative and momentary. Answer theses questions: What is organizational culture? Can culture be managed in the same way that other systems and processes can be managed? Depending on your answer, what does this mean as to the use of culture as a strategic control?

Make a connection between an artifact, ecofact, or feature and its cultural significance. While museums and archaeological sites often display aesthetically pleasing objects, those objects had particular significance to the people who made and used them in the past.

It is this past significance that you will highlight in your assignment. Think about using Antiques Roadshow (see PBS) as an example, although we are interested in the cultural value of the object, NOT its monetary value. You will need to start by providing some background on the cultural group and time period you are studying. Next, you will introduce the object and discuss its cultural significance.

What you have learned about writing in this class and how you have applied this knowledge to your writing tasks for this course? (minimum 200 words, but you can keep going since the final draft is 1,000 words).

Peer review: 800 words.
Step 1: Use the rubric to peer review the multimodal genre:Read the writers memo.
Read the draft.
Copy/paste the rubric at the bottom of the draft and write 150 words under each category telling the writer where they are doing well in that category and where they should revise.
Respond to the writers memo in 150-200 words.
Step 2: Peer review the rubric itself: What was most useful and why about this rubric to you as a peer reviewer? What was less useful and why? What comments did you want to make but couldnt because the category was not there in the rubric? (about 200 words)Cover letter: 1000 words

Describe in detail, how the researchers measured emotional abuse.

i. FOR EXAMPLE
1. Did they use CPS records, observational methods, or self-report?
2. Was the report from victim, perpetrators, or some other person?
3. What behaviors did they include? What behaviors did they not include?
4. Did they use a specific measurement tool?
5. Did they distinguish or attempt to distinguish between emotional abuse and other types of abuse?
ii. Compare and contrast your definition with the definition used by researchers.
1. Which definition do you think is more expansive? More specific?
2. Which do you think would be more useful in a clinical situation (such as a CPS worker trying to determine if emotional/psychological abuse occurred)?
3. How do you think the results of the study would be different if your definition were used?

How might these artists’ approaches inform our/your own ways of making/meaning in 2018 – see Nelson Algren file to write like that (give a definition like the Nelson Algren gave a definition of what a real Surreal photography is like and what qualities they all have).

– all these three artist was LGBT rights activists and their lives have all been affected by the HIV and AIDS whether it was directly: their own life or indirectly: their loved ones, families and or partners. How to write: – Beginnings: What was your Project (purpose, question, claim) and the works you chose and why?Comparisons and Contrasts: How do these works compare and contrast?

Did Dickens tell something different than a historian about the French revolution since he was a novelist and did leave something out because of his job as a novelist?

Use Dickens’ and a historians perspective about the French revolution and compare them. The writer can go broader if he wants and comes up with something applicable to this. At least two unofficial sources (article, blog post etc) and at least 1 official source (book from the library, could be a scholarly article.) Description of the assignment: In this essay, students go beyond the simple recognition of another authors position by using additional texts to develop an analytical argument about the text. They must show how their interpretation of the primary class text draws on, responds to, or applies ideas from the additional text they have found.
