DISCUSS WHAT ARE SOME WAYS TO ADD VALUE TO THE VALUE CHAIN METHOD/CONCEPT.

like most methods and concepts, there is a primitive and relatively useless way to use the VALUE CHAIN, and there are more sophisticated ways to use the method/concept. The primitive way is to merely LIST AND DESCRIBE some value creating activities of a firm in each of the little boxes of the value chain concept. DISCUSS WHAT ARE SOME WAYS TO ADD VALUE TO THE VALUE CHAIN METHOD/CONCEPT. In other words, how can you make the VALUE CHAIN concept/method worth applying to a case?

compare and contrast the governments and individuals presented, developing an argument regarding the evolution of government and leadership over time.

Examine Gilgamesh (The Epic of Gilgamesh), Senwosret (the Egyptian pharaoh in The Tale of Sinuhe), Pericles (Pericles’ Funeral Oration), and Augustus (Life of the Divine Augustus, Res Gestae). Discuss each leader’s style of
authority, how and why they rule over their subjects, what roles, duties, and responsibilities they hold, and the values each one embodies. Likewise, compare and contrast the governments and individuals presented, developing an argument regarding the evolution of government and leadership over time.

Part I

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the Fisher (2009) article, “Replacing ‘Who is the Client?’ With a Different Ethical Question” and the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct: Including 2010 Amendments paying special attention to standard 3.11.
Informed consent is an important ethical component of research and practice. It is not, however, always sufficient or appropriate for consulting, program evaluation, job effectiveness assessment, or other psychological services delivered to or through organizations because it does not always address all the necessary elements of a given situation. These facts do not negate our responsibility as psychology professionals to inform clients and those who may be impacted by our services. In the discussion you will address these issues through the following case study.

You are an industrial organizational (I/O) psychologist and have been hired to evaluate a company’s “Work From Home” policy to see if it has increased company production. In addition to a review of the employee records, the evaluation needs to include interviews with supervisors and employees on the value and limits of the policy. Since informed consent as typically considered in clinical, counseling, and research settings will not be sufficient in this instance, you will need to inform all supervisors and employees about your services.

In your initial post, briefly analyze and define who the client is in this case study. Assess your professional role as the I/O psychologist and your responsibility to the client as defined. Apply the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct to this scenario, specifically addressing what information should be provided to all supervisors and employees. Explain how you would disseminate this information and ensure understanding amongst all stakeholders. Elaborate on how you would establish trust with the employees, protect employee identities, and ensure the results are used in an ethical manner.

Ethical Pitfalls

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the Grenyer & Lewis (2012) “Prevalence, Prediction, and Prevention of Psychologist Misconduct” article and the APA Practice Central’s Professional Health and Well-being for Psychologists , Tips from Practitioners on Finding Work-Life Balance , and Tips for Self-Care online articles.
Select two complaints presented in the Grenyer & Lewis article (see Table 1) and explain the ramifications of these violations applying the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct to each situation. Assess the role of the APA in assisting psychology professionals in the identification of potential areas of misconduct. Describe and recommend a course of action to avoid these areas. Evaluate the contemporary role of psychology professionals and elaborate on the relationship between self-care and the issue of maintaining ethical principles and professional standards. Identify one or two self-care tips, tools, or suggested courses of action provided on the APA’s Self-care resources for psychologists website that might address the issues which lead to the chosen complaints.

write an essay examining the literary value Federico Fellini’s 1963 film 8 ½.

Write a 3-4-page essay addressing the essay prompt below. Answer the prompt in an
organized essay (introduction with thesis, supporting paragraphs, and a conclusion).
Make sure you create a strong central thesis that organizes your essay and make sure it is
convincingly supported by evidence-filled supporting paragraphs. Be as specific as you
can when referring to the film by providing specific evidence and analysis to support any
claims or observations you make.
Through an analysis of story and writing, write an essay examining the literary
value Federico Fellini’s 1963 film 8 ½.
How you organize your essay is up to you, but you should devote equal weight to the
film’s story and writing. Make sure you use relevant terminology from the readings and
lectures in your essay in order to show that you can employ the concepts fruitfully for a
competent film analysis.
Remember, when writing about film, as with literature, always use the present tense,
except when specifically referring to something in the past. Examples: “When Pilar first
finds out that Sam is her half brother, she is shocked, to say the least” (Present tense).
“When Sayles made Lone Star, he helped fuel the passion for multiculturalism that was
emerging within the American Left” (Past tense). Also, remember that film titles should
be italicized.
Make sure you give yourself ample time to write and carefully revise a rough draft for
your assignment. Although you do not have to turn in a rough draft, this is the best way
to assure that you can turn in the polished, well developed, and clearly written essay that
will get the grade you want. Carefully proofread your essay. Your essays must be
typed, double-spaced, in 12 pt. font (Times New Roman), and with 1” margins.

Write a 6-7 page paper on Nicholas Mann’s essay “The Origins of Humanism”

English 3120: Sixteenth-Century English Literature
Brooklyn College, Dept of English
Fall 2015
Prof M Elsky

ASSIGNMENT 1

Write a 6-7 page paper on Nicholas Mann’s essay “The Origins of Humanism”(in The Cambridge Companion to Renaissance Humanism) and Book I of Thomas More’s Utopia. Show how information about Italian Renaissance Humanism supplied by Mann (secondary source) helps us understand Utopia, Book I (primary source), as a humanist work. (Only the material in Mann on Renaissance Humanism, pp. 5-17, is relevant.)

Some guidelines: Consider some of the main Renaissance Humanist issues discussed by Mann: language skills, rhetoric, classical imitation, service to the public (the court, the prince, the commonwealth, society, or the state). How are these themes used by More; how do they apply to the main issue of Book I, the debate between Raphael and More concerning service to the king and the commonwealth? Consider that the literary works of the Renaissance investigate how the ideals of Humanism are worked out in actual social and political situations.

DUE DATE: OCTOBER 22, 2015

This paper must be both posted on Blackboard and submitted in class in hard copy.
FORMAT:
Typed, double spaced, 12 pt. Times New Roman font, 1 inch margins.

ORGANIZATION:

1. THESIS: The paper must have a FOCUSED THESIS that states a connection between Mann’s essay and More’s Utopia. The paper must also have a conclusion. Be prepared to revise your thesis as you proceed with your writing. You will not be able to finalize your thesis until you have the rest of the paper in place.

2. DEVELOPMENT AND MAIN BODY: You can develop and substantiate your thesis by dividing your paper into two parts: Part 1 on Mann; Part 2 on More.

You may use class notes, but do not use any secondary sources other than Mann’s essay. Do not use material from the internet.

Make sure your development is based on specific references and QUOTATIONS to the text of both the secondary and primary source. Your paper should not be a series of unsubstantiated assertions and generalizations.

QUOTATIONS:
You MUST use quotations from the primary and secondary texts to substantiate your argument, but weave the quotations into your own writing. Do not use long quotations, including block quotations. Paraphrase in your own words and quote key words and phrases. All quotations must be less than a full sentence. Always remember: allusion to, paraphrase of, and use of information from any sources, even without direct quotation, must be attributed to a source through citation.

CITATION:
Citations must be referenced using the MLA format of parenthetical citation keyed to a bibliography of works cited. The MLA format is available in the MLA Handbook and online.

PLAGIARISM:
Using any outside sources without attribution is plagiarism. Using someone else’s words without attribution, even if you change some words, is plagiarism. This holds true whether the copied source is a printed book or article, or the internet. Plagiarism will be treated with strictness. You are responsible for knowing the information, definition, and policy about plagiarism in the Brooklyn College Student Handbook, 17-21 (available online at http://www.brooklyn.cuny.edu/bc/pubs/handbook/05.pdf).
Grading:
Papers will be graded on the following basis:
1. Content: focused thesis; specific explanation of ideas supported by reference to text through paraphrase, quotation, and citation. There are many good answers to the question. Grades will be based on how well you support your argument.

2. Writing: correct grammar, clarity of expression, and effective organization. No paper can receive a grade of B or better if it contains serous grammatical errors, especially sentence structure errors (comma splices, run-ons, fragments, incoherent syntax) or verb errors.
