Introduction

I chose to write about Trump’s policy focus on the construction of a wall on the southern border because of the much attention that has been given to this policy in the recent past. The fact that there are multiple arguments on the necessity of such a policy make it a good topic of discussion at a time when people are keen to see the appropriateness of the policies that have been introduced by President Trump (Memoli 1). The practicality of the policy with regard to the purpose of curbing the rate of illegal immigration has also been ...

Critical reflection

In my video I attempted to look at the phenomenon of gamification through a learning perspective. I deliberately decided not to make too much of an emphasis on academic learning because I wanted to frame everything in a way that would reflect our daily experiences. After all, every day we learn something new, and it does not necessarily happen consciously all the time. How successfully you are able to learn has a lot to do with your ability to concentrate. This is the issue I have devoted the introduction in the video to. I made the shots just a ...

Video in Opera Stage

Introduction Advances in technology and the corresponding creation of digital technologies have significantly impacted the performing arts (Poole & Ho, 2011). Opera has not escaped the technological advancements and as such, new forms of opera have emerged in both digital and virtual formats (Symonds & Karantonis, 2013). Salter (2010) explains that since the 1990s, the scenography of opera has emerged with technological advancements transforming stages into video and monitor accompaniments. The obvious payoff is an enhanced experiential, virtual reality of the opera’s stage. The new technologies blur the lines between the opera’s stage and the motion picture common in ...

Question 1

1.1 In her taxonomy, Joh (2005) describes private policing as law enforcement activities offered through agencies owned and controlled by private individuals. That said, unlike their public counterparts, private police officers concentrate on property loss, preventive techniques, private justice, and safeguarding personal interests. As such, these entities mainly operate as parallel entities, each focusing on their individual duties in law enforcement. This taxonomy is both useful and an excellent beginning in the categorization of various forms of private policing as explained below. On the one hand, some of the existing classifications include publicly contracted, protective, intelligence, and corporate security ...

Question 1

Journalism refers to the profession or career of creating, assessing, presenting, and gathering information and news to the public. However, this traditional definition of journalism is currently being transformed by social media. Previously, journalists could pick information regarding what they thought the public would be interested to hear or read. Social media, on the other hand, is providing a user-oriented or customized form of journalism where the public chooses what they can relate. With the changes, journalists have to ensure that they give citizens important and truthful information to sustain professionalism (Lipschultz, 55).

Question 2

Milton Friedman believes that in a free society we must not forget that there are two types of freedom and they should not be confused. The proper role of the government is to consider these two ways of understanding freedom - which are freedom from coercion and freedom of ‘free of cost’- and help individuals reach their objectives, interfering with each other as minimum as possible. The government should create opportunities to help people achieve their goals, knowing of course that there is no absolute freedom in society. It is important to notice that for Friedman, the society ...

I. Company Overview The apparel industry is a highly competitive and almost exclusively based on image. As fashion becomes "fast", i.e. designing and selling apparel becomes more for masses as opposed to a conventional haute couture model, established and emerging players alike are competing over an increasingly powerful market segment, namely Millennials, who continue to shape business across different industries. Forever 21 is one notable example of apparel companies competing, primarily, over Millennial customers. Forever 21, operating in seven countries in addition to Europe, is a notable example of an established apparel player adapting to continuous changes in apparel ...

One of the challenges depicted by the video is the shortages of staff and heavy workload. As such, the preceptors have many patients on their hand.

Critical Review of Marketing Campaigns

Critical Review of Marketing Campaigns

Coca-Cola ad #MakeItHappy was based a theme of making the internet a happier place. The marketers had developed a platform that turned hateful and negative tweets into cute ASCII code photos. The ad opens with a group of students being mocked in a video by classmates, followed by negative comments and terse words being shared behind the scene. The scene then opens to a server room where a cold bottle of coke spilled into the servers and sending sparks into the servers that then spread into happiness in the cyberspaces around the city.

Video Games and Watching – Essay Plan

1. Topic For the sake of this assignment, I chose the topic “Video Games and Watching,” as it is a fascinating topic for me. I have had a long relationship with video games as a main part of my leisure time throughout my life, and so I feel very close to this subject in particular. Furthermore, the ways in which gamification has infiltrated our lives in the last few years is also fascinating to me, whether through creating rewards-based productivity apps or streamlining other behavior in ways that follow game theory (Whitson, 2013). The rise of reality TV competitions ...

Q1 (a) Adichie’s essay presented two basic examples based on the concept of feminism that exists in the minds of men. At first, she illustrated that how she preferred to wear clothes that were less feminine while going to her graduation school.

Therefore, they tend to look manly to prove themselves as stronger while making a public appearance Q1 (b) Another example that Adichie’s essay has provided is ...

The author worked from a collection of Nightingale’s own written work and her letters, as well as her history. Dossey breaks Nightingale’s personality down into these four factors, using her life and work as a template to explain those personality traits. For instance, Nightingale is determined to be introverted due to her desire to be alone in ...

The video that presented different aspects of a modern family, parenting, and marriage holds interesting facts that show how science can change the meaning of the word family. The first area that was notable in the video was the emergence of technology that enabled three different individuals to become the parents of a child, including the surrogate mother. The video made me understood that the modern family is far different from what it was centuries ago. For instance, the legality of same sex marriage gave way to the new meaning of the word parents.

The United States health care structure

The United States of America health care system has different features that make it unique among other industrialized nations.

All four functions play different roles in improving health and well-being of Americans in all states and from ...

When a video of SAE student chanting a racist fraternity song surfaced the internet, it was met by a different reaction from all the world (CNN).

Abstract

It is possible to sort out three major counter-productive actions that took place throughout the meeting (although there were much more). First of all, the meeting started with a formal recital of orders that were imposed on the task force, instead of democratically sharing the views of the new management on the possible review of policies with the selected professionals. Secondly, the topic of new uniform (or scrubs) turned into the public ostracism of the nurse due to her appearance, which is in fact an action punishable by law. The ad hominem accusations prevented the meeting from ...

Computer Games

Computer games are my passion from a very young age. I started off by playing a usual Television interfacing video game console which was usually available at that time around the early 2000’s. Computers were just getting popular at that time and it was a major expensive thing to buy at that, which we could not afford. I discovered that I had a passion for gaming from the moment I laid my hands on the video game console box. I bought a lot of games and I played every single day. The gaming platform slowly transitioned from the ...

This report shall be a case study on change management and it shall focus on one particular company.

In the video, the teacher/professor has poor teaching and classroom management skills. The video starts off with the teacher discussing about the learning module without addressing the classroom issue or introducing to the topic. It is important for a teacher to address key issues in the classroom that not only affect the entire learning objective but also despairs students from attending or paying attention in class (Gaberson, Oermann, & Shellenbarger 2015). As a teacher, I would first inform my class students to keep away all cell phones, music players, and other electronic devices away. It is important to make aware ...

E-Learning is one of the most remarkable products of the technological development.

To say differently, any form of online learning is synonymous to e-learning (Dror, 2011). This paper sets out to analyze the growing trends relating to electronic learning in different settings such as K-2 schools, institutions of higher education, and businesses.

At the forefront of the causes of the First World War was the growing sense of Nationalism among the European nations as they reacted to the “fallout” of imperialism abroad and social class conflicts at home (WWI and the Interwar Years, Part 1 3-4mins). In other words, each European power was keen to minimize its counterpart’s influence in the colonized territories and within its borders. Subsequently, one of the effects of World War I was the taint it placed on the presentation of the West as the “height of civilization”; in answer, colonized persons began to question the ...

Answer 1) the reason why Europe and France are considered such important markets for Netflix is because they represent a large proportion of the population that has access to broadband services.

Secondly, the US market has become highly saturated while the market in Europe for online video streaming services is still in the growing phase. Therefore in order to cover its rising expenditures, it is important for Netflix to be able to ...

Notably, Google has diversified from search business into communication applications, productivity applications and computing operating systems (Edelman & Eisenmann). This expansion mandates an environment scan of Google's to be not only limited to search business but ...

There are many controversial subjects that we hear about almost every day. For this post, I chose videos that cover two of these topics: the Affordable Care Act and the Greenhouse Effect. Each video provided a surprising amount of information about each topic that I did not know in a way that’s easy to understand. In the first video, ABC Action News described the new health insurance requirements under the Affordable Care Act and its impact on the population as a whole. Under this law, everyone in the United States is required to have health insurance; however, not ...

In the YouTube video on the Science of Persuasion, six short-cuts to decision-making are described. The six short-cuts are 1) reciprocity, 2) scarcity, 3) authority, 4) consistency, 5) liking, and 6) consensus. I have selected scarcity and consensus as the two short-cut methods of persuasion to discuss in further detail. Scarcity and consensus are a powerful factors in how influential they are in the selling process. Scarcity, which creates a type of desperation in the need to acquire “said material” makes the product being sold extra desirable. People are afraid to miss out on an opportunity to own or ...

One of the main positive characteristic observed is teamwork. For an organization to be successful teamwork between the organization's leadership and its employees is very crucial, whereby, both work together for the purpose of achieving organizational goals (Louisville Leopard Percussionists).

In business organizations presence of diversity in gender, sexual orientation, religion as well as in race increases the overall effectiveness of the organization. In the video each of the student has a role to ...

I would comment that the video should be a source of learning and awareness to everyone who is aspiring to get into healthcare and is or is becoming a pharmacist. It will help them to assess any such person who might be a drug diverter, and they can capture them in the act and report them to the concerned authorities. It will be a step forward in preventing people from ruining their lives at the hands of drug addiction. One critical moment I have observed is when a woman once came to the pharmacy and asked for a couple ...
