How do the authors/directors describe city life?

Ask yourself this question:  What are the important aspects of every-day life in Paris as presented in the two films (Paris, I Love You and Amélie),  and the two readings (The Man Who Could Walk Through  Walls and The Two-Penny Bar)?  What aspects of the city are high-lighted in the films?  in the stories?   What kinds of spaces seem particularly relevant to the characters’ stories?

How do the authors/directors describe city life?  What do they seem to value through their presentations or descriptions?  How does this environment impact the characters as they move through the events which control their life?

 

To adequately develop this analysis, you should carefully do the following:

  • discuss each reading and film individually
  • compare  ideas which appear in more than one film or reading
  • contrast ideas which may appear contradictory
  • draw evident conclusions from your analysis

Using the Argosy University online library resources, research the topics of employee recruitment, disparate treatment, and adverse impact.

Assignment 2: Recruitment: Disparate Treatment and Adverse Impact

The staffing process involves generating a pool of qualified candidates for a particular job (recruitment) and deciding which of the applicants to hire (selection). The staffing process can occur with external as well as internal candidates. With internal candidates, the terms “promoting from within,” “career ladders,” and “succession planning” are frequently used.

Whether selecting from internal or external candidates, industrial organization (I/O) professionals must be aware of unintended, potentially illegal effects on groups of individuals who are not recruited or selected.

Using the Argosy University online library resources, research the topics of employee recruitment, disparate treatment, and adverse impact. Choose a recent (within the past five years) scholarly, peer-reviewed article related to these topics.

In your response:

  • Describe the article.
    • What was the main purpose?
    • What were the key ideas and information included?
    • What conclusions and areas for further research were suggested?
  • Analyze the effect of disparate treatment and adverse impact on the recruitment process.
  • Justify three best-practice guidelines to help ensure that disparate treatment and adverse impact are avoided in recruitment activities.

Using two text Stuaer Wolpert’s “Crafting Your Image for Your 1000 Friends on Facebook,” and Doughlas Rushkoff’s “A brand by Any Other Name” – write an analytical essay about how individual identity can be understood, or not, as a performance of popular cultural productions

Using two text Stuaer Wolpert’s “Crafting Your Image for Your 1000 Friends on Facebook,” and Doughlas Rushkoff’s “A brand by Any Other Name” – write an analytical essay about how individual identity can be understood, or not, as a performance of popular cultural productions  (i.e., Lvei’s presentation of cool, Victoria’s Secret’s depiction of sexy, Ford’s version of rugged, Nike’s notion of trendy,etc.). As you begin to think about your analytical approach to the topic, work to unify your analysis around a central aspect of the issue/texts (in other words, avoid an analytical strategy that raises point after point with no recognizable relationship among them). To help you conduct your analysis (to set up, promote, defend, etc. your points). You are required to cite ideas/ themes/ passages from two texts from this unit. Remember to establish your points clearly and sharply and to deliberately cover and fully defend each and every claim you raise. Finally, work to build your essay around a tight, unified analytical focus
