animal farm by george owell

/in /by

Writing Activity #1: Review your notes on the questions posed in the ‘before reading’ activity. Use your responses as the basis for writing a short essay in response to the questions below.

a. How is Orwell’s Animal Farm an allegory? Be specific and provide examples from the text to support your statements.

b. What are the rhetorical components of this allegory?

c. How is the use of allegory as a rhetorical device different from simply laying out a non-fictional account, or an historical or statistical analysis of the period and the rise of the Communist Party?

d. Do you think that Orwell’s use of allegory rhetorically is successful? Explain.

Writing Activity #2:

Step 1: Read the introductory paragraph about Martin Niemoller.

Step 2: Read his poem.

Step 3: Write a response to the question that follows this poem.

Martin Niemoller was a church pastor in Germany during Hitler’s rise to power. An early supporter of Hitler, his philosophy changes and he became very critical of the Nazi agenda and practices. He was arrested and held in concentration camps throughout World War II, and barely escaped execution. He is perhaps best known for his cautionary poem:

In Germany they came first for the Communists,

and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time no one was left to speak up.

* Hint: Compare Niemoller’s cautionary poem with Orwell’s allegorical story of the Manor Farm. How are their messages similar or different? How is the method of delivering those messages similar or different?

MUST USE AT LEAST 3 IN TEXT CITATIONS.

MUST USE THE COMPANY USED IN PREVIOUS ASSIGNMENTS.

PREVIOUS ASSIGNMENT WILL BE SUBMITTED ONCE TUTOR EXCEPTS

You will perform an environmental scan for your target company.

For this 2,800-word to 3,500-word assignment, you will be completing an environmental scan and economic analysis on your organization (for which you are creating your strategic plan), including the remote, industry, and operating environments. Your environmental scan should describe the situation completely and accurately. You should identify any major changes that you expect to affect your remote, industry, or operating environments in the next 5-10 years. This will include the following subcomponents:

  • Analysis of the forces and trends affecting your organization.
  • Utilize a macroeconomic forecast of economic indicators that will affect your chosen organization in the future and should be considered part of strategic planning.
  • Analyze the non-economic factors in the remote environment:

1) Social and Cultural

2) Political

3) Technological

4) Demographic

  • Complete a competitive analysis of your organization’s position from a microeconomic perspective. Ex. based on the pricing of the organization’s primary product or service line, an assessment of its cost structure, and an assessment of the market in which the organization competes. (Note: This should be an analysis, not a spreadsheet.)
  • Develop a summary of the organization’s current situation, including its mission or business overview, its current competitive position, and the forces and trends in its industry. Based on this situation, you will identify three to six current opportunities and issues you believe should be addressed through your strategic-planning process.
  • Identify strengths and weaknesses in the organization’s operating environment that can be leveraged to capitalize on the emerging opportunities or minimize threats.
  • Create three strategic long-term objectives that can be measured to determine the success of the strategic plan. Explain the measurement/metrics intended and their viability.
  • Revisit the mission and vision statements. If necessary, modify or improve them further to align with your expressed long-term objectives.

To recap your assignment goals:

  • Determine how to create value and sustain competitive advantage using an environmental scanning strategy.
  • Evaluate the company’s external environment.
  • Assess the company’s general external operatingenvironment.
  • Evaluate the organization’s industry operating environment.

Format your paper according to APA 6th guidelines.

understand correlation and other basic research concepts

/in /by

Extra Credit 2: Understand Correlation and Other Basic Research Concepts

Activity to do:

  • STEP 1 – THE RESEARCH IDEA: Studies exploring the relationship between certain personality characteristics and aggressive driving often focus on the traits of anger, hostility, and aggression (e.g., Deffenbacher, Huff, Lynch, Oetting, & Salvatore, 2000; Lajunen & Parker, 2001; Matthews & Norris, 2002). But what about competitiveness? Could it be that some people who drive aggressively are very competitive, and just want to “to win,” “get ahead,” or “be first?”?
    • Share your experiences with aggressive driving, either as the target of an aggressive driver or as an aggressive driver, themselves. Think about the kinds of personality traits that might covary with the tendency to drive aggressively.
  • STEP 2 – TURNING THE IDEA INTO AN EMPIRICAL QUESTION: Is there a relationship between competitiveness and aggressive driving?
  • STEP 3 – DOING LIBRARY RESEARCH: I will start you off with some useful descriptors (driving behavior, highway safety, personality) and a full text review article on the topic (Sharkin, B. (2004). Road rage: Risk factors, assessment, and intervention strategies. Journal of Counseling and Development,82Preview the document(2),191-198Preview the document.) You must then find one more primary research articles from peer-reviewed journals to include in your report. So here, have the two citations and a 1-2 sentence summary of what they did/found
  • STEP 4: Take the “Aggressive Driving Survey,” and rate on how much you feel it describes you. Do you think there are other and perhaps more valid ways of measuring it, such as by actually observing someone driving. What are the trade-offs that we often must make when we conduct research, where it is sometimes not feasible to conduct a study in the manner we would like. This raises the issue of methodological limitations, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of field and laboratory research.So here, I’d take the AGGRESSIVE DRIVING SURVEY – 1) note your score and rate on how much you feel it describes you. 2) Do you think there are other and perhaps more valid ways of measuring it, such as by actually observing someone driving?3) What are the trade-offs that we often must make when we conduct research, where it is sometimes not feasible to conduct a study in the manner we would like?

Each answer should be about 3-4 sentences. Aim for a paragraph. Feel free to use your textbook and any other sites you may have access to. Please include a reference page in APA format at the end.

Plagiarism:

Any direct quotation MUST be placed within quotes and cited. Citing alone does not make it not plagiarized! As I am not allowing ANY quotation this should not even be an issue!

Citing merely tells the reader where the information is coming from – using direct quotations “” tells the reader it is a direct quote from someone else. Why is this important? Well chiefly, it’s not your words or work. Secondly, if you have the reader feels the information is wrong they can seek out the original source to verify that information a) wasn’t taken out of context or b) is indeed wrong.

Remember, you are typically better off loosing points for having nothing in your own words that plagiarizing someone else.

Course policy is that any plagiarism results in an automatic 0 on the assignment.

University policy is that this is a violation of the university honor code and as such must be reported!!!

So please do NOT plagiarize!

A fifty-nine (59) year old black American with hypertension and hypercholesterolemia is brought

to the emergency department. She has a history of tobacco use for 25 year; quit ten years ago.

Husband smoked one pack per day. She has a positive family history of heart disease.

Occasionally takes walks in the neighborhood with friends, but does not have a regular

exercise regimen.

In the emergency department, Mrs. Johnson is alert and oriented. Her vital signs are

temperature 98.2 F (36.7C), blood pressure 148/97, pulse 81, and respiratory rate 14. An

electrocardiogram (EEG, EKG) monitor shows a normal sinus rhythm. Mrs. Johnson is still

complaining of “numbness” of the right side of her face and down her right arm. Her mouth is

noted to divert to the right side with a slight facial droop when she smiles. Her speech is clear.

She is able to move all of her extremities and follow commands. Her pupils are round, equal,

and reactive to light (4mm to 2 mm) and accommodation. There is no nystagmus noted. Her

right hand grasp is weaker than her left. Mrs. Johnson does not have a headache and denies

any nausea, vomiting, chest pain, diaphoresis, or visual complaints. She is not experiencing

any significant weakness, has a steady gait, and is able to swallow without difficulty.

Laboratory blood test results are as follows: white blood cell count (WBC) 8,000 cells/mm,

hemoglobin (Hgb) 14 G/dL , hematocrit (Hct) 44%, platelets = 294,000 mm, erythrocyte

sedimentation rate (ESR) 15 mm/hr, prothrombin time (PT) 12.9 seconds, international

mg/dL. A head computed tomography (CT) scan is done which shows no acute intracranial

change and magnetic resonance imagery (MRI) is within normal limits. Mrs. Johnson is started

on an intravenous heparin drip of 25,000 units in 500cc of D5W at 18 ml per hour (900 units per

hour). Mrs. Johnson is admitted for a neurology evaluation, magnetic resonance angiography

(MRA) of the brain, a fasting serum cholesterol, and blood pressure monitoring. Upon

admission to the nursing unit, her symptoms have resolved. There is no facial asymmetry and
