Discuss what you think American society in the United States will look like in 20 years.

E‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ngaged citizenship can be expressed in numerous ways. For some, social movements and political activism are signs of progress, while for others; they are signs of unwanted change and a declining society. Examples of social movements include concerns of global warming and climate change, protection of 2nd Amendment rights and one’s right to life, Black Lives Matter, #MeToo, immigration and refugee issues, religious rights, and LGBTQ rights. For this assignment, use the ideas explored in this course to discuss what you think American society in the United States will look like in 20 years. Will future generations be engag‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ed citizens? Think about issues such as rights, equality, responsibility, and individual behavior. Express your optimism or pessimism about this nation’s future. https://archive.wilsonquarterly.com/sites/default/files/articles/WQ_VOL23_W_1999_Article_04.pdf https://www.religion-online.org/article/individualism-and-the-crisis-of-civic-membership/ https://www.people-press.org/2018/04/26/9-the-responsibilities-of-citizenship/ https://www.chiefstandingbear.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Chief-Standing-Bear-Presentation.pdf Have to reference all four articles in the paper.

Answer the following questions as you consider these question types: What information do you need in this interview? Which types of questions will help you gain the information you need? Are there any question types that will be more useful to gain the information you need than others? Why? Are there any question types that will be less useful to gain the information you need than others? Why? What are some pitfalls you will want to avoid in creating your questions? Strategy Part 5: Questions Finally, to make sure you are fully prepared to conduct this interview, you will need to develop various types of interview questions that will help you gather the information you need. Note: While preparing questions in advance is a good strategy for any interview situation, you will often have to adjust your questions based on the responses you get from your subject. Using the information provided in the scenario, complete the following: Create 5–10 interview questions. Identify which question type you are creating. (Hint: You may wish to present your question types and questions as fol‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌lows: Diversion question: “How long have you lived in the area?”) What to Submit To complete this project, you must submit the following: Word document, Times New Roman, 12-point font. APA style with reference page. Utilize the following text: Grubb, R. E., & Hemby, V. K. (2019). Effective Communication in Criminal Justice. Sage. Scenario is the following: Victim Witness Advocate You are a victim witness advocate assigned to the district attorney’s office at the local court. As part of your responsibilities, you meet with witnesses and victims before criminal hearings and trials. Part of your job is to explain the criminal proceedings and prepare the witness/victim for what he or she may expect to see and hear during the proceedings. You are preparing to meet with and interview a victim at the courthouse in the days before trial. Your meeting will take place in a meeting room inside the courthouse. The meeting rooms are small. Usually, the only furniture in these meeting rooms is a rectangular table with four hard, wooden chairs. All of these meeting rooms also have a small, tilt-in window with bars on the wall opposite the door; a picture of the current president of the United States and a picture of your state’s supreme court justices on one side of the room; and a copy of the . Constitution on the wall opposite these pictures. Victim: John Smith Suspect: Jane Smith Alleged Facts A male victim and female suspect have been married for over twenty years. The female arrived home, intoxicated, at approximately 1:00 . She entered the marital bedroom and violently attacked the victim. The victim was beaten with closed fists, and his face was stomped and kicked with bare feet. The victim’s screams alerted a neighbor, who dialed 911. Police arrived, conducted their investigation, and arrested Jane Smith. They charged her with domestic assault and battery as well as domestic assault and battery with serious bodily injury. The victim was transported to the hospital, where it was determined he sustained bruising on his torso, a broken rib, a broken nose, and dental injury (a broken tooth). He applied for and was granted a domestic violence protection order. The victim provided and signed a written statement. Jane Smith was arraigned and ordered held in custody pending criminal proceedings due to the risk of danger to the victim. Family History Police have responded to the victim’s residence frequently for disturbances between the couple. None of the previous responses resulted in criminal charges. However, after reviewing those police reports, you note that the husband is identified as the victim and the wife is identified as the aggressor. It is clear based on your case assessment that the husband experiences regular verbal and emotional abuse from his wife. There are no children in the home. Prior to your meeting, you are told the victim “has cold feet” and may no longer want ‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌to testify against his wife.

Explain how you will implement feedback loops for your product or service.

The funding pitch went extremely well, and you just received word that your idea for the new product/service has been approved. In fact, senior management sent a memo, company-wide, announcing the project.

One line in the memo really caught your attention: “We are eager to see the project to completion and the many other product offerings to come from this initiative.”

You reach out to the project manager (PM) and are told that, typically, senior management expects to see product/service extensions or some type of next steps stemming from an original product. This could include different versions of the product/service, such as cheaper or premium versions, new targeted customers, and more. The PM also adds that senior management will look for contingency planning to protect the funding for the project.

Prompt
For your business continuity plan, consider your next steps, including project improvements and how to mitigate risk to the project to protect the product investment. To accomplish this, you must leverage employee and customer feedback on the new product/service. Additionally, research the market and use a PESTLE analysis to examine if any external factor could affect your new product offering.

Specifically, your plan must address the following criteria:
