Modernism and research

the period in human history known as modernism. Your task as as explained within my power point is to select one of the topics that I highlighted in the power point and address it within your reflection. I want to see what you learned from the text about the topic but also what other additional research you found in relation to the topic. Finally, I want to hear your own voice address your thoughts about the topic.
Thus, your paper should include
1. An introduction to the topic
2. A bit of information about the topic as presented within your text (show me you read)
3. Outside information on the topic, not covered in your text (show me you did some research)
4. Finally, your own voice, meaning your thoughts on the information you have just presented in parts 1-3 above.
Please note: In addition to showing your ability to research and share additional facts that you find, I also want to hear your voice come through in the paper. Thus, as you explain new facts that you found in your research. Also, share what you think about the idea you are presenting or if feelings came up for you as you researched. I should not just have a page full of cited information with no student or personal voice.
Finally, you MUST cite your sources (even if informally) and I don’t want to read word for word from Wikipedia. Actually, to your research, find strong source material, and then summarize the important or noteworthy ideas you want to share. Then expand, in your own words on the significance of the idea presented, as you see it.
Your assignment: Please write a 1.5 to 3 page paper (12 font and double spaced), addressing one of the key topics addressed in your power point from this chapter. For example, Frida Kahlo, Freud, Dada art, Harlem Renaissance, etc.
This assignment is worth 25 points
10 points for information on the topic, both from text and your own research.
10 points for showing your research and including your own voice as well.
5 points for organization and clarity of writing
Please don’t plagiarize. Anything that is word for word from any source MUST be in quotes and cited. Otherwise, it will be an automatic zero.
Happy writing and reflecting.

strategic or operational decision

Once you have finished reading about Qantas and reviewing the background materials including Buhler (2001) and Kourdi (2003), write a 4- to 5-page paper addressing the following questions:
Is the decision whether or not to sell Qantas frequent flyer program a strategic or operational decision? Is it a programmed or non-programmed decision? Explain your answer using references to Buhler (2001) or Kourdi (2003).
Suppose Alan Joyce decides to take a rational approach to the decision whether or not to sell the frequent flyer program. List a step-by-step approach you would recommend, and include specifics regarding what kind of information or choices should be considered at each step. Do not just list the steps, give detail at each step and use material both from your research on Qantas and from Buhler (2001) or Kourdi (2003) to come up with these steps.
Joyce has been the CEO of Qantas for six years and is an experienced airline executive. Given his experience, do you recommend Joyce use a rational or intuitive approach to this decision? If there is a new CEO who comes from another industry and does not have this airline experience, would you recommend they use a rational or intuitive approach? Explain your reasoning, and make references to Buhler (2001) or Kourdi (2003) as appropriate.

Cryptocurriencies

So, what are they? This is for you to discover! You will be doing a formal research paper on this topic.
You will need to cover the following in your paper:
Explain what cryptocurrencies are
Discuss at least 2 of the different cryptocurrencies in use (Bitcoin is not the only one)
How does one obtain cryptocurrency (how would you get some of the two you picked in the bullet above)?
Illustrate a real-life use of cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange (not a theory or it could be, but where is it excepted)
Discuss the usefulness, limitations and dangers of cryptocurrencies
While I do not have a set number of pages for this topic, I can say that student who doing this assignment in under 5 paragraphs tend toward lower grades due to a lack of detail or missing one of the bullets in their paper.
Moreover, you will most likely need to have a few references since it is rare that a student is an expert on this subject, which means you are look up information. So have a reference page in APA and cite your sources in-text.
I have always found that Investopedia a great place to start when there is a financial asset that I need to learn more about. As such, you might want to start at https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/cryptocurrency.asp. However, this should NOT be your only source besides your textbook. This one I gave you, go find your own resources as well.
If you are really into the topic, some students are, I recommend you go to Blockchain.com – The Most Trusted Crypto Company to gain some insight. Also, click on https://www.blockchain.com/charts/total-bitcoins and you can see some charts for Bitcoin (they have others also).

David Hume rejects the validity of tacit consent as a basis for political obligation. Explain his reasoning. Do you agree? Why or why not? Be sure to consider objections, or reasons why tacit consent might generate political obligations.

Essay Prompt: David Hume rejects the validity of tacit consent as a basis for political obligation. Explain his reasoning. Do you agree? Why or why not? Be sure to consider objections, or reasons why tacit consent might generate political obligations.

Directions:

You are to write a thesis-driven, argumentative essay in response to one of the assigned prompts. Essays must be a minimum of five, double-spaced pages (see the Formatting Guidelines handout). The successful essay will demonstrate a clear understanding of the concepts and readings under discussion and develop a strong justification in defense of a thesis (see the Grading Rubric for further details).

Structure your essay as follows: (1) Introduction/Argumentative Thesis; (2) Body consisting of exposition, analysis, and defense of thesis (aim for 30% exposition and 70% analysis and justification); and (3) Conclusion (summarize key findings/arguments).

Example:

For an example of an effective argumentative essay written for a popular audience, please see: Appiah, et. al, In Defense of Hierarchy.

Advice:

What do successful essays have in common? Let’s look at what the authors of In Defense of Hierarchy do well within each of the three structural components of their essay.

Introduction

Engaging opening: Appiah and the other authors of this piece begin with a mere observation that contemporary liberal democracies claim to value equality but that we can not really do without some types of hierarchy. Their discussion of this observation is easy to follow yet also thought provoking and engaging.
NO unsubstantiated generalizations or vague language.
Clear thesis: As a group, we believe that clearer thinking about hierarchy and equality is important in business, politics and public life. We should lift the taboo on discussing what makes for a good hierarchy. To the extent that hierarchies are inevitable, it is important to create good ones and avoid those that are pernicious. It is also important to identify the ways in which useful and good hierarchies support and foster good forms of equality. Note that this thesis is clear even though the authors adopt a nuanced position. The authors state a position and offer a brief justification for this position which they will then develop throughout the body of the essay. Also, do not be afraid to use the term I when identifying your thesis (e.g., In this essay, I will argue).
Body Exposition (Summary or Explanation)

Paragraph structure: The body of the essay develops in a logical manner. After stating their thesis, the authors clarify any terms or concepts necessary to understanding their argument (here they define the term hierarchy and distinguish between different types). A good critical essay must do this so that readers who are unfamiliar with the subject matter can all follow along! Plan to devote at least 2 paragraphs to exposition.
Topic Sentences & Transitions: Note that the authors guide the reader from one point to the next through the use of well phrased topic sentences and, sometimes, rhetorical questions (e.g. What then, should be said in praise of hierarchy?) Do not overuse rhetorical questions. But do try to imitate their example, tying together the different part of your essay through the use of transition words and phrases such as thus, therefore, Given that, etc.
Body Analysis & Justification of Thesis

Framing the argument: The authors do an excellent job in this piece of framing their argument for the reader by numbering their points. That is, they discuss three reasons for reconsidering the value of hierarchies and let their readers know explicitly when they are moving from one point to the next (e.g. First, bureaucratic hierarchies can serve democracy; and “Apart from their civic importance, hierarchies can be surprisingly benign in life more broadly).
Consider limitations and objections: After offering arguments for the continuing value of hierarchy, the authors consider possible limitations and objections. For example they note that, (a)s well as being empowering, hierarchies should be dynamic over time. Hierarchies are often pernicious not because they distinguish between people, but because they perpetuate these distinctions even when they are no longer merited or serve a good purpose. Moreover, they consider instances where hierarchies have harmed individuals and they try to respond the the objection that even a justified or valuable hierarchy could perpetrate harm (e.g.: “But are hierarchies compatible with human dignity?). You must do the same! Before concluding your essay, address and respond to possible objections.
Conclusion

Avoid hasty conclusions! The authors do not abruptly stop writing. Instead, they use their conclusion to restate their thesis. At this point, they are able to do so in a more detailed manner since the reader now has the benefit of both the exposition and analysis and can better appreciate the thesis.
