What are all the Marketing related terms and concepts that you were able to glean from the documentary? They would not be spelled in as many words, but I expect you to interpret them given the context.

Here is an abbreviated example: Build a superior product (the first P) and customers will beat a path to your door (better mousetrap). The Product/production era. The Ulfberht was “cutting edge” technology.

There are many such marketing concepts that you can talk about. Please make references to the documentary when you write about them. ALso, make connections to International marketing as the VIkings used these swords for trade or attack with/of foreign nations.

I hope to get some really good and illuminating/reflective answers.

Here is an example of how you would write/expand your answer:

The first “P” of marketing is PRODUCT. In the PRODUCT ERA of marketing, all that the manufacturer had to do was produce. As long as the manufacturer was producing a high quality product, it would sell (you can have a Ford car in any color, as long as it was black). Also, customers would have to wait a long time after paying in order to get their order fulfilled. Similarly, the Viking Sword Ulfbehrt, was cutting edge technology and was not manufactured in large numbers. Supply was limited and was probably expensive. Therefore, it was in high demand by the rich and ambitious warriors. In the PRODUCT ERA, a manufacturer had to build a better mousetrap. There were enough mousetraps in the market and customers were picky. They knew which one was the best and would demand the best. The U was the best sword and its performance meant the difference between life and death for the wielder. So warriors wanted the better sword. Just seeing the name on the sword afforded special attention and respect to the warrior who carried it and it also made the opponent weak in the knees even before starting the battle.

You can elaborate on this paragraph and make it more meaningful. I am just giving a general outline. There are several such concepts in the documentary.

How does the research apply to your everyday life experiences?

Please read the instructions carefully and ask me if you have any question.

Students are to choose and read one of the presented articles and answer the essay questions from below. The articles are empirical in nature and were written for a captivated audience hence, many may find certain parts of the readings difficult to understand (i.e., the results section). Students may want to focus on the Introduction (describes the issue and surveys previous studies), Methods (describes how this particular study was carried out), and Discussion (interpretation of the study and what the results may mean) sessions in order to get a general understanding to of the article. Write an essay (for each article chosen)—in your own words—that addresses the following questions:

1. What is the purpose of the research?

2. What type of research method was used (e.g., description of subjects, how many, how were they selected; what apparatus or materials were used, and procedures).

3. Identify the independent variable(s) & dependent variable(s)

4. What were the main results?

5. How does the research relate to topics you’ve learned in your course (be specific)?

6. How does the research apply to your everyday life experiences (be specific)?

Be sure to include as a cover sheet (this page does not count toward the minimum 2 page limit) the following:

Your name, student ID number, instructors name and course number
article’s title, authors, and date of study

All papers must be submitted to YOUR PSY 100 INSTRUCTOR by the last regular scheduled day of classes (not including study period or finals week) by 5pm.

The paper should at least be two pages and written without excessive spelling errors, poor grammar, and punctuation. Please note that all essays must be original and done independently from other students. If any form is plagiarized from another student and/or some outside source, students may risk disciplinary action that is not limited to the following: an incomplete for the course; failing the course, and/or suspension from the university. Non-compliance of any of the aforementioned rules and the paper will not be accepted and graded as an incomplete paper.

Describe how the green revolution consisted in large measures of fertilizing land with petrochemicals derived from petrolum.

You should write a free response essay which I have attached the format for the essay and how you can write a free respond essay . you should support your answer by given examples. do not cite much of words. you should answer the following questions in the essay .
Q1) Some say oil is the excrement of the devil , oil is black blood, oil is the blood of the dinosaur, oil is the blood of the earth however, most would agree that oil is the blood stream of the world economy. Debate this notion?

Q2) Discuss how we are moving from an era of cheap abundant energy to an era of scarce hard to get expensive energy ?

Q3)Why are oil exporting nations interested in keeping the world dependent on oil as long as possible?

Q4) Increased unemployment, poverty, bankruptcy, starvation their are all kinds of things that happen when a society collapses, we are entering a new world of unbelievable oil shortages and its only a few years away. Discuss how this will affect your life.

Q5) Describe how oil is not like wheat, we are not growing it every year. The great bulk of the worlds oil was formed in two very brief epochs, in periods of extreme global warming 90 and 150 years ago. when the organic material was buried to a depth of 2000 m a chemical reaction converted it into oil. formed once, briefly over 4B years geological time.

Q6) All the oil created over earth’s 4B years, humans will use up in one or two centuries. How will this affect an engineers career ?
