Throughout the course, you will also engage in Psychology Demonstrations via the Psychology Online Laboratory. The web link is the same as the Psychology Experiments. You will choose ONE (1) demonstration to participate in and write a one-page reaction paper in APA format (7th edition) for your demonstration. The reaction paper will include:
1. The Name or Title of the Demonstration
2. An introduction of the what topic in Psychology the Demonstration covers, i.e., Social Psychology, Biological Processes, Sensation and Perception, Life Span, History and Systems. How can the demonstration explain the concept in Psychology?
3. Your reaction to the demonstration (do you think it is a good way to demonstrate the topic in Psychology, how could it have been better, etc.).
4. Conclusions and References.

I expect that your journal entries will original, thoughtful, and meaningful and they should be well written with correct grammar and structure. Please support your journal entries with ideas from the text, news articles, laws, and other academic sources. Please include proper citations if you use outside sources. For grading criteria, please see the Rubric for Journal Entries. At my discretion, exceptionally well-written and well-cited journal entries may receive up to 10 bonus points. Your entries should be in the range of 300-400 words (longer is fine if you want to elaborate on a point but short and concise can also be good).

For our journals, I will accept file uploads only. Here’s our Journal topic for Module 9:

Which do you consider more important to judicial decision making: judicial independence or judicial accountability? Should justices be selected according to merit systems involving nomination committees or should they be subject to popular elections? Is it appropriate to attach party labels to candidates seeking judicial office via popular election?

b. Using the same information as in part a, list the amounts of any transfers in and transfers out that were budgeted for the most recent year.
c. Based on the notes following the financial statements, what is the policy of the general fund with respect to outstanding encumbrances at the fiscal year-end?
d. On the balance sheet of the general fund at the most recent fiscal year-end what is the total amount reported for assets and for fund balance? Of the total amount reported for fund balance, how much is unassigned?
e. On the balance sheet of the general fund at the most recent fiscal year-end what is the amount reported for inventories? If inventories are reported, does the government use the purchase method or the consumption method?
ƒ. Based on the notes following the financial statements, what is the government’s revenue recognition policy with respect to property taxes in the general fund? What percentage of the property tax levy is estimated to be uncollectible?
g. Read the CAFR section that contains management’s discussion and analysis. What reasons were given for the increase or decrease in general fund revenues for the most recent year?
h. Examine the statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance for the most recent year. Compare the change in fund balance for the general fund with the amount of change in fund balance that was budgeted for the year. Were the government’s general fund actual results better or worse than expected?
i. After revenue from taxes, what was the next most significant source of revenue for the general fund for the most recent year?
j. Has the general fund engaged in any interfund loans and advances? If yes, show the amounts that are owed to or by the general fund as of the most recent year-end.

Research paper on Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller. Using 2 literary criticism as a secondary source.

I want a Research paper of 4-5 pages minimum (not including the Works Cited page). Typed, double-spaced with 1” margins using 12 pt. Type.MLA formatted/DO NOT INCLUDE PICTURES OR A COVER PAGE (SEE SAMPLE RESEARCH PAPER). The paper should be written in the 3rd person to emphasize the subject. The paper MUST analyze literature and MUST incorporate at least 2 sources of literary criticism found in the library (or using the library website) to support your analysis. I would HIGHLY recommend using the library and asking the librarians for help.
it should analyze a work or works by a single author AND supports its thesis using research.

Please pick a topic relating to the era and class from the instructions provided in the files, as it is a must to follow that era and European history. IT NEEDS TO BE 7 FULL PAGES NOT INCLUDING ANY TITLE PAGE OR WORK CITE PAGE. I have provided the course description to also help when picking the topic. Make sure all directions are followed,and use the correct sources and cite
them correctly.

Topics of discussion are how the characters deal with fear and how it is a challenge, the idea of using a symbol as a beacon of hope and how the film explores the idea of justice and vigilantism.

Identify and explain a social behavior that people or individuals engaged in that was considered deviant (and even criminal in some instances) before the 1960, but now the same social behavior is normalized (and even decriminalized or legalized).z

It is important to name the people or group who deemed the behavior deviant, and their underlying explanations for why it was deviant.
What brought about the change in perception or attitudes that resulted in the behavior becoming normalized?

Example Selection
You should select a business ethics issue that either has occurred or might occur in a veterinary practice and write an analysis of the issue and potential decisions/solutions, using the concepts introduced in your textbook. You might pick one of the following:
A situation currently in the news
An ethics dilemma witnessed in a veterinary practice either as an employee or a client
A high quality hypothetical business ethics issue in a veterinary practice (either one you’ve seen in books or film, or one you create)
Be sure to choose an example for analysis that seems interesting, difficult, or complicated.
Project Process
Step 1: Select an example for your analysis as outlined above.
Step 2: Perform your analysis. Apply the recommended high quality, ethical decisionmaking process described in your course book. You’ll want to consider the facts of the situation, the ethical lenses, legal, regulatory, and any other more specific lenses that might be applicable. Describe how the key concepts apply, and explain why the decision is difficult or complicated. Recommend the course of action you believe is ‘best’ taking all the relevant considerations into account.
Your textbook should be your primary reference. Your paper may also include independent and reliable sources (many of which you might access from your textbook’s chapter notes). You should feel free to consult sources on the Internet. However, always make sure your work is original and well-documented. Notes from a website should include the source of the site. This is done to establish that the site is authoritative and not merely idle opinion.
Use APA style for citations and the Works Cited page. For information on APA style format see the Library.
Step 3: Write a first draft of your essay. Your paper should be written using a word-processing program, such as Microsoft Word or a Word-compatible program. Your analysis should be five to eight written pages. The essay should include a brief introduction, several paragraphs examining the key issues, your recommended course of action, and a conclusion that acknowledges arguments for and against your recommended decision. (Recommendation: Finish your first draft several days before you plan to finalize your paper. It’s best to set it aside for a couple of days before moving on to the completion.)
Step 4: Complete your final draft. Carefully review your written essay, correct any errors, and submit your final draft to your instructor. (Recommendation: Read your essay out loud to yourself. Doing this will help make you aware of gaps, redundancies, and areas where the writing should be improved.) Include a title page and a bibliography of sources. The last page after the main body of the essay should provide a list of your reference sources.
