Questions:
(1) Why does Kant think that happiness is not the object of ethics? Why does he think that ethics concerns obligations/duty rather than human happiness? (350-500 words)
(2) Using an example, please explain the categorical imperative. What is the categorical imperative? What is the difference between doing something in accordance with duty and acting for the sake of duty?

Learning Objective: To demonstrate an understanding of the role of system development and change.Refer to week 6 PowerPoint slides and related resources. During our discussion, in the context of conducting an IT audit of the system development lifecycle, we emphasized the importance of keeping the risks in mind. Defining the problem, when performing an IT audit, involves understanding the risks relate to the process under review. If a change is not properly designed, it may impact…If a change is not properly authorized, it may impact…If a change is not appropriately tested, it may impact…With this in mind, in your own words, consider the following questions:a.What are the key risks related to ineffective or weak software development and change controls? b.Develop a high-level business process flow chart for an emergency change control process that takes these risks into consideration. Label the control points on the diagram and explain how these controls mitigate the identified risks. [NOTE: If using Microsoft Word, go to Insert | Shapes | Flowchart to develop the flowchart]c.What documentation would you, as an IT auditor, want to test to determine if emergency change controls are working effectively?

Hello and good day to you! I’ve already written an entire essay on my own but I’ve been given further instructions from the professor after finishing my essay so I’m asking you for some help. First the professor tells me this essay is supposed to be in single spacing so more words are needed(I wrote in double spacing…) That’s sad as I purposely shortened the number of words written to try to write the least amount of words as possible… I want it to be more of an academic paper, maybe I guess I want it to include the following things and more for instance
1. Topic sentences being in the first paragraphs
2. This paper will focus on…
3. Put forward more detailed suggestions for adapting to the host country
4. Equal distribution of key points
etc
These are just examples I guess and some of these are already in place inside the essay written. But still please take a thorough look and if there are amendments needed(which there would definitely be), please do so.

This essay is supposed to be an essay for the following instructions:

Write a four-page
long paper entitled A Case Study of a Newcomer Experience according to the
following instructions:
A case study is an
in-depth study of an individual that helps to teach how larger issues and
concepts are experienced in real life. The purpose of your case study is to
apply your knowledge of cross-cultural adaptation to understanding the
experience and feelings of a newly arrived international student/ex-pat.
You are required to interview
an ex-pat or international student (NOT someone from the class). After the
interview, write a four-page long summary/application of your findings from the
interview. In the paper, you should
1) summarize the key points raised in the interview;
2) apply your knowledge of cross-cultural adaptation
(U/W model), based on readings, lectures, and class discussion, to your
summary;
3) provide your
recommendations for changes in assisting ex-pats or international students in
cross-cultural adaptation.

Grading
will be based on your ability to analyze your interviewto tie in description
with conceptual analysis. The teacher will be looking for the depth and
expression of your descriptive interview including your ability to probe beyond
the obvious, to recapture the interviews language/images, and to provide a
concise analysis and recapturing of the interview. Finally, the teacher will
expect a well-written, proofed paper.

I’ve attached the powerpoint slides for Cross Cultural Adaptation and textbooks you can take a look at for better understandings of the paper.

Please make sure it throughly follows the below mentioned custom MLA format and the Works Cited part is in the correctly wrirren format.
Font should be Times New Roman, 12, single spacing, inbetween paragraphs there shoudn’t be spacing, the paper must not exceed 4 pages, all the numbers for the pages should be down in the bottom middle part of the paper in Arabic numbers, the first sentence in each paragraph should be spaced out four english characters, there is no need to put in the surname, student number or the name of the course in each page of the paper.

This is what the professor said for an essay I handed in for a similar topic. “What is more, the writers control of the conventions of academic writing should also be improved. For example, the paper does not have a recognizable introduction with a precise central claim. The way to list entries in Works Cited should require improvement.”

This was the proposal for this essay and as long as this is met, you can write a completely different story or add in some stories or do whatever you want if you think that is more effective than editing my work.
Here is the proposal as follows.

The place you find your interviewee: An exact place doesn’t exist, but in California, U.S, through acquaintances with the help of the Internet

Nationality of the interviewee: German studying in the U.S

Length of his/her stay in a host country: Approximately 1.5 years

Current situation of the interviewee(whether a culture shock survivor or not): Culture shock survivor who is happy with her stay in the U.S, but who hopes to adjust even more and become a natural part of the U.S culture

Reasons for your choice: Not being able to find an appropriate foreigner who is in the “Newcomer Stage” after Covid-19, I had to seek for help through acquaintances and only this interviewee was the one who would fit in this stage.

Focus of your final paper: Summary of the interviewee, Cross-Cultural Adaptation and recommendations for changes for the interviewee and other newcomers to a foreign country, etc

Tentative conclusion(s) for your final paper: How it is possible for newcomers to adapt to a new country with the least amount of pain?

So anyways, please read the long instructions carefully, read the powerpoint slides and the textbook throughly, and edit and also add some words into the written essay. I think more of the language barrier and other parts can be explained, as I think the essay I wrote tries to focus almost soley on one difficulty the interviewee had. The deadline is definitely extendable, but I purposely put in this date so that I could read once and let you know if there are other editings needed. Thank you!

DQ1: Stare Decisis
Under the doctrine of stare decisis, courts are obligated to follow the precedents established in their jurisdiction unless there is a compelling reason not to do so. Should U.S. courts continue to adhere to this common law principle, given that our government now regulates so many areas by statute?
DQ2: Online Filing Systems
Class, concerning Cyberlaw, many jurisdictions have implemented online filing systems, and some have set up cyber courts in which part, or all, of a case is presented online. What issues are likely to occur in these circumstances? To what extent those who send e-mail over the Internet should be liable for the content of their messages in states other than their own (or nations other than the United States). Is the existence of a website a sufficient basis to exercise jurisdiction?
DQ3: Strategic Managements
In negotiating a business deal, is strategic misrepresentation permissible? Do you have to disclose everything?
DQ 4: Slander and Libel
Is online defamation slander or libel? Defend your response! Also, take a look at this California case: a. Varian Medical Systems, Inc. v. Delfino, 113 Cal.App.4th 273, 6 Cal.Rptr.3d 325 (6th Dist. 2003).

On Blackboard, during this week, go to your learning pod and post your second blog under the Group Blog page. In your first blog, you identified a social problem and wrote an op-ed to advance a claim about this problem.
For this second blog I am asking you to present a case study of the claimsmakers who are working to advance the claim of your choice. For this blog, you may continue to analyze the same social problem that you wrote about in your first blog, or switch to another social problem. In either case, please write about the role of one or more specific activist or expert claimsmakers. These may be individual persons, small groups, or organizations but you should be clear and specific about who the claimsmaker is.
As with the first blog, this will be a short (750-1000 words) essay that develops a case study of a claimsmaker of your choice. Please describe how they try to make a difference. You may use any material about claimsmaking in the book or lectures (mostly from Weeks 3 and 4). While you may want to support their work, you want to approach this blog with some analytic distance.
As an example, in week 3, I attempted to provide my own case analysis of Black Lives Matter. In Week 4, I attempted to do likewise for Expert Claimsmakers who have advanced claims about Climate Change and COVID-19. My work is not perfect, but it gives you a sense of the approach to take to your subject.
You will remain in the same learning pods groups of 3-5 students that you had in week two and three. While each students blog will be their own, the learning pod partners can give feedback to one anothers blogs. Each blog post is worth 5 points towards your final grade (4 blog posts x 5 = 20 points total. Blog posts are due Sunday evening by end of day (11:59pm) on the weeks that they are assigned. Students may post late blog posts at a one point per day penalty as follows:
Blog posted before Sunday end of day = 5 points maximum
Blog posted before Monday end of day = 4 points maximum
Blog posted before Tuesday end of day = 3 points maximum
Blog posted before Wednesday end of day = 2 points maximum
Blog posted before Thursday end of day = 1 point maximum
Blog posted before Friday end of day = 0 points maximum, but you may still
want to post to receive feedback from your learning pod members.
Blog posts will be graded based on how well students apply the elements of the social problems process to a critical social problem(s) of their choice. These are meant to be memos that generate creativity and ideas, so you will not be heavily penalized for formatting, spelling, grammar.

Scenario – Jessica, a registered nurse (RN), and her husband are finally leaving on their vacation trip. They pull up at a red light as it is about to change to green. They watch in horror as a large truck, moving fast down a hill, in unable to stop before crashing into a van carrying a mother and her child. The van is thrown into the air and lands in a small park. Jessica runs over to offer aid. She finds a semi-conscious woman in the drivers seat and an unconscious 4-year-old little boy in the back seat strapped into his car seat. The mother asks Jessica if Christopher is all right before she slips into unconsciousness. Christopher is unconscious and not breathing with his head down and touching his chest. He has a gash bleeding on the side of his head caused by his tricycle flying over the back seat during the crash. A truck driver, who also stopped to give help, yells in the window at Jessica, Dont move him! Jessica knows that she has to get Christophers breathing started. Even though the truck driver is still yelling at her not to move the boy, she gently lifts his head off his chest. Christopher, still unconscious, starts breathing immediately. Jessica stops the bleeding on his head by applying pressure using a clean handkerchief from her husband. Emergency help arrives ten minutes later.
Instructions:
Read the scenario above and then, answer the following questions:
In your opinion, even though Jessica knew that, in most cases, an injured victim should not be moved, did she do the right thing by moving Christophers chin up so he could breathe?
Was Jessica covered by the Good Samaritan law or was she held to a higher standard since she had a nursing license?
Would Jessica have been covered by the Good Samaritan law if Christopher had not started breathing when she moved his head and he had suffered further injury from the movement?
Was Jessica, an RN, legally required to stop and provide aid? Was she ethically obligated to stop and provide aid?
In your opinion, is it always a good idea to stop and give assistance at an accident site before medical help arrives?
