The divide between a nonprofit organization’s operational and direct line work when carrying out the mission statement.

The instructions for this paper are in the aatchedment.

These are some questions that will help guide this research process:

What is a mission statement? What is the value of a mission statement? Who benefits from the mission statement and how? Can there be from those employees (in this case finance and HR) who are not connected to the mission of the organization, when enforced to carry out the mission? What other pressures or goals do certain staff have (such as operations, finance, compliance, etc)? Why? What might their professional training and backgrunds have to do with their approach to the “mission”? Why is the mission of an organization of value for those who provide direct service?

Criminal Justice reform advocate

Research project – This research paper is designed to help students develop their sociological imagination and articulate their analytical skills for understanding social change. Keeping this in mind, identify your major and/or career choice. Complete a research paper in a minimum of ten (10) typed and double-spaced pages in Times New Roman style and size 12 font. The margins on your paper should be no more than one inch on both sides. Discuss your future career or current major along with its requirements or qualifications and the steps you will take to prepare you for your career. Incorporate in your analysis and discussion a minimum of two social theorists as discussed in class and/or textbook, and show how each theory relates to or supports your career choice because of its impact on society. Finally, discuss what you will do in your career choice to improve any aspect of society. Most importantly incorporate your position on how you will positively contribute to improving society after you have
met your occupational and/or career goals.

Im currently a criminal justice major and am hoping to become a justice reform advocate in the future. Im pre-law as well so it’s important to note my future field of work lines up with this cause.

Country Analysis on Germany

MY COUNTRY FOR THIS PROJECT IS GERMANY!!!

This analysis involves examining a country’s business environment. This includes:
 A brief introduction of a country of your choice (I CHOSE THE COUNTRY GERMANY), including any important current events that are happening
right now, a summary of the history, and where it is located/geographical information.

 PESTLE Analysis of that country
o Political
o Economical
o Sociocultural
o Technological
o Legal
o Environmental
 Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions of that country
o Individualism
o Power distance
o Indulgence
o Long-term vs. short-term orientation
o Masculine vs. Feminine
o Uncertainty Avoidance
 SWOT analysis of a company that isn’t in that country
o Strengths
o Weaknesses
o Opportunities
o Threats
o Examples include Ulta, Buc-cee, Duluth Trading Company
o Make sure the company you pick is NOT in that country. So, it would be best to
avoid large companies like Amazon, McDonald’s, etc.
 A competitor analysis for ten points extra credit.
 Business recommendation if you think the company should expand into that country.
This assignment is beneficial because you can use it for cities, states, and countries. An example
would be that the business environment of Houston, TX is a lot different than the culture in
Austin, TX, even though it’s the same state.

I have added links in the modules to help you find information. A great place to start would be
the CIA World Factbook. They have every country available.

Format:
It needs to include in-text citations and a bibliography, both using APA. You need to have less
than 40% on TurnItIn. More than an average of 3 grammar mistakes per page results in a loss of
a letter grade. If AI usage is detected or suspected, the student will automatically get a zero
for this assignment.
Previously, successful students started early. If you submit it to me by March 15th, I can look at
it before you turn it in for the final grade.

Concept Mapping

Read the attached article Concept Mapping. You will see examples of concept maps in the article.
Create a concept map by drawing the entire thing yourself by hand or using your computer.
Create a concept map to demonstrate visually how lessons from this unit are related. Include what you learned from the following lessons.
Learning Environments: Adjusting to My Preferences
Focus for Learning: Active Listening and Mindfulness
Metacognition: How to Know That I am Learning
After you create your concept map, write a learning process paper that describes the process that you used to create your concept map for this unit.
Once completed, take a picture or scan your concept map and include it at the end of your learning process paper. Upload your paper into Blackboard at the link above. If you use a computer tool such as a software package or an online tool to create your concept map, just upload a photo, screenshot, scanned image or saved document or include a URL if your mind map is located online.

The Industrial Revolution

For this essay, we’ll do something a bit different: Answer four specific questions. They are:
(a) What’s the difference between the cottage industry system and the factory system?
(b) What role did the concept of “efficiency” play in the early Industrial Revolution?
(c) Organization and technology played significant roles in the factory system. Explain.
(d) What is meant by the “integration of a national market” in early nineteenth century America?
Understand that these are four specific questions you’ll need to answer in a single, integrated essay; this is not a choice of one of the four questions.
All four questions are interrelated, which is to say, much of what can be used to make and demonstrate answers for one question can also be used for the others. Therefore, you can write a single essay in which you answer all four questions, or you can write four shorter essays, one for each question. For both options, all the standard criteria for research and analytical essays in this course still apply, including the use of evidence or factual material, cites and bibliographies, a cogent thematic argument, a conclusion, etc.
Notes:
1. Note the italicized words and phrases in each of the four questions for this essay. They denote the key issues you’ll be discussing.
2. Question “a” is a comparison between two modes of production: cottage and factory. Differences and similarities are both important, and so are outcomes. What’s the outcome of switching from one to the other?
3. Question “b” requires a definition of what efficiency is, in addition to why it’s important. Definitions are almost always a good thing to start out with, in any exercise. Keep in mind that efficiency also has an “outcome” and it’s similar to the outcome in question “a”.
4. Question “c” is about as close to a “trick question” as this essay problem gets. Here’s why: Most people associate the Industrial Revolution and “factories” with technology — complicated machinery in large buildings with belching smokestacks. But as a result of reading through this section, you know better now, don’t you? It isn’t that technology isn’t important; it is. But organization is equally and sometimes even more important. So part of this question is about explaining how and why.
5. Question “d” is the “conceptual” question in this essay. It’s largely based on definition: what does “integration of national markets” mean? And secondly, how does the concept (integrating national markets) apply to early nineteenth century American history? If you’re hazy on the concept, ask yourself: What did they make in Lowell, Mass. and other parts of New England or the mid-Atlantic states? What did they make in Ohio or parts of the Midwest? Based on the answers to those two questions, what did people in Lowell eat? What did people in Ohio buy? So… what was shipped from Ohio to Lowell to eat, and what was shipped from Lowell to Ohio to buy… and there’s your “integration of a national market”. (Food and manufactured goods are the answers, by the way.) Finally, ask yourself how the food got shipped and how the manufactured goods got shipped – along with coal and wood for factories, and plows and fertilizer for farms. (And now you’re into tying together the nation with a transportation and communications revolution – all part of the “integration of a national economy”.
As always I’ll be looking for evidence of effort; a cogent, coherent argument, good use of evidence and factual materials, clear writing and organization, and citations and a bibliography: the usual things. If you have any questions or concerns, just ask. Happy to read a draft, if you like. JM

How do the Social Sciences differ from the Humanities and Natural Sciences

Title of Paper
Author’s Name
Nash Community College

Month spelled out day, year

Abstract

Notice that the abstract is not indented. The abstract is one paragraph in length and should not exceed 200-250 words. You will not indent this paragraph, but you will indent all other paragraphs in your project. This section should be written LAST after all other sections of the project have been completed. All numbers in this paragraph should be typed as numbers (4) and not in word format (four). There is no indentation to the abstract paragraph. The abstract should be an objective (i.e. unbiased) summary of the information that you learned about your theory through research and a brief overview of each section of your project (without using personal pronouns). You should allow your reader to preview the information so he/she knows whether or not they want to read more. Indicate the global relevance of the theory. Pull from your introduction/conclusion to help you write this section of your project.
Keywords: list five or six keywords separated by commas.

Full Title of Project 3
In this section, you will provide an overview and explanation of the theory. This overview (a minimum of 1 page) should showcase the definition, history, and background of your theory. Begin with an introductory sentence about the theory. Then dive into an explanation of the theory — defining the theory and discussing where the theory was found and how it is applied, in general. You then need to provide a full explanation of your theory. Depending on your theory, you could discuss who is affected, who is impacted, symptoms, cures, etc. Strive to fully explain the theory so that your audience fully understands what that theory means.
Make sure that you use in-text citations in APA format in your paragraphs in order to give credit to the sources you found/used to learn about this theory.
Literature Review
This section should be 2+ pages (1 full paragraph for each source), double spaced. In this section, you will write a literature review of 4+ scholarly sources that describe and summarize research related to your chosen theory.
In your paragraphs, you will recap what researchers currently have to say about this theory. You should cover different current research studies about your theory. In NCLive, these are the studies that follow the IMRAD format [Intro, Methods and Materials, Research, Analysis (sometimes embedded into other sections), and Discussion].
Make sure to use in-text citations in APA format throughout your paragraphs in this section so that your readers can easily follow along as you move from one source to another in your discussion of them.
Note: The Literature Review section is somewhat similar to the paragraphs you wrote on your Annotated Bib, but the citations are not listed in here in full. You will state the authors or other identifiers in an intext format. (Ex: J. Smith (2017) researched … ) It is in more of a standard essay/narrative format. (Your full citations go on the Resources page). See the sample student literature review about sleep deprivation in the Insider’s Guide AW.
Observations
Personal Experience
This section should be 1-1½ pages (3+ paragraphs), double spaced. Note: If you follow the suggested page length for each section, then you will have no problem writing a 6+ page total project on your social science theory.
In this section, you should discuss your answers to these questions: How is this theory apparent in your life? How does it directly affect you, your family/friends, and/or your community? To do so, you will share your observations of an event/activity, survey and/or interview results, and other findings you have personally noted. You will also share specific ways that this theory directly impacts you or someone/a group close to you.
You can use 1st person pronouns to discuss how this theory personally impacts you. However, avoid personal pronouns when exploring how this theory impacts other people/groups that you observed in order to learn more about this theory.
Experience of Others
This section should be 1 ½ to 2 pages. It describes in detail your purpose, methods and findings from your original research done to explore the theory (observation, interview, survey, etc.). Whenever you mention any information that came from your interview/survey or any other source [other than yourself], you need to use in-text citations in APA format.
Conclusion
This section should be around ½ page (2+ paragraphs), double spaced. In this section, you will tie up all loose ends and make connections between the research [in Literature Review] and your personal findings and experiences [in Observation]. To do so, address these questions: What are the social applications and implications of the research? How is this theory and research relevant today? And what is left to find out?

Use this journal to discuss what you have read in Chapter 8 as well as the Theory Response Essay Assignment Sheet/Template. Address such things as: What did you learn? How do the Social Sciences differ from the Humanities and Natural Sciences? How will you move from third person to first in the Personal Observation section, and then back to third in the next section of the essay? What is your opinion about going back and forth from third to first? How does this affect the flow of your writing, if it even does affect it? You can discuss other points; these are just some that come to my mind as I type this.

Research Design for Senior Seminar on Russian and Chinese Influence on terrorism in the middle east

This is for my senior seminar class, so I need it to be the best work possible. I need a research design written that is 8-10 pages with 6 sources that I have already picked out. I will attach the source list. Pick 6 sources from the list and write a research design on them. Please structure the paper like this:

1. Theory and Concepts:

2. Hypothesis:

3. Variables and Measurement

4. Method

Finally, cite the 6 sources used. I also am attaching a literature review that was done previsouly. Please read over the literature review before writing the research design and make sure that you dont contradict the literature review. I WILL NOT PAY YOU IF THE ASSIGNMENT IS NOT TO STANDARD!!! This is a big assisngment for me and holds a heavy grading scale. It needs to be perfect.

Explain how understanding typical reading development in students aids in selecting screening, diagnostic, and progress monitoring tools to assist with determining remediation and intervention strategies. Consider the grade level where you currently teach or are most interested in teaching and describe the skills you have or might see a typical reader exhibit if they were reading on grade level and how this differs from the work of students who are struggling with reading skills.
