Need help with my Business question – I’m studying for my class.

Consider the readings for this module concerning case study protocol. In your post, address the following:

1. What three key ideas were most significant from the readings;
2. Two ideas/topics from the readings that you would like to explore or discuss further; and
3. One element/issue/concept that you found difficult in your understanding or application of case study research methods.

In your responses to other students, focus on questions 2 and 3.

This assignment is a discussion, so remember to join the conversation early in the module. Remember to cite sources—particularly in your initial post.

Module 1 – Background

introduction to case study design and methodology

The following readings are required for Module 1. Optional readings can be found at the end of this section and while not required, may help you understand the material better and be useful to you if you choose to conduct a case study research method for your doctoral study. All readings can be accessed in the Trident Online Library, unless linked to another source or otherwise noted.

The Case Study as a Research Method

This module begins with an overview of the case study method, how this method differs from other types of research, the types of topics that are well suited for case studies, and compares the main types of case studies used for research.

Introduction

Case Study Design

We continue with an exploration of case study design. This section begins with a consideration of research questions and units of analysis, followed by the role of implicit or explicit theory in driving the research, considerations of quality (validity and reliability), and ending with the selection of single versus multiple case study designs and mixed methods.

Case Study Protocol and Preparing to Collect Data

In Module 2, we will examine the steps of collecting and analyzing case study data, but there is much to be done (and learned) before data collection. Thus, in this final section of module one, we look at how to prepare for a case study, ethical considerations and procedures for protecting human subjects, and developing a protocol.

I’m working on a Management exercise and need support.

1. 
   Select a company that has violated an HR law.
   
   Imagine that you are a HR manager within that organization. You have been tasked with developing a training to help prevent future violations of the HR law.
   
   Compile research and information to include in your training.
   
   Address the following in 700 to 1,050 words from your research:

   • Summarize the situation.
   • Discuss the law’s requirements. Include information regarding what the law does, how it is executed, and the execution gaps of your selected organization.

Can you help me understand this Computer Science question?

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, read Chapters 6 and 7 in your textbook, and watch the Managing Schedule, Release Planning, and Cost with Visual Studio Online (VSO) (Links to an external site.) video. This video will demonstrate how VSO can be used to setup the schedule for your SCRUM project.

Last week, you developed a product backlog for your SCRUM project. This week, you will estimate the schedule of your project in VSO. Follow the steps below to estimate the schedule of your project:

1. Determine the cadence of your iterations.
2. Revisit each work item in your VSO backlog and estimate the level of effort that is required to implement it.
3. Determine the velocity of your team.
4. Calculate the number of iterations that are needed to complete the project.

Assume that you have only 1 SCRUM development team made of three developers. Also assume that the business owners mandated three release dates that the development team must commit to.

Your project schedule must span at least 4 sprints

Once you have estimated your project schedule in VSO, take a screenshot of it to submit for your assignment. Set up the starting dates of your iterations based on either regular work schedule or business mandated dates or both.

In addition to your screenshot, include a 750- to 1250-word (3-5 page) paper with the following:

• Summary of the relative level of effort for the items in your product backlog and your team velocity
• Explanation of your approach to completing this assignment and the decisions you made
• Summary of personal reflection and lessons learned in completing this assignment

The assignment

• Must be 750-1250 words (3-5 pages) in length (not including title and references pages, or the screenshot of your product backlog) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
• Must include a separate title page with the following:
  • Title of paper
  • Student’s name
  • Course name and number
  • Instructor’s name
  • Date submitted
• Must use at least 1 credible source in addition to the course text.
• Must document all sources in APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
• Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

Carefully review the Grading Rubric (Links to an external site.) for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.

Note: Using Excel instead of VSO

Analytical Question for Writing #1: Loewen, Chapter 4

In answering the “analysis” portion of this writing assignment, please answer the question below:

Loewen’s definition of” syncretism”:

• taking elements from two (or more) cultures to form something new.

When Loewen speaks to Native Americans, he argues that modern Native American youth can avoiding choosing between “Western culture” and “Indian culture,” both of which, he points out, are already syncretic. Do you agree with him? Why or why not?

  • If your paper fails to meet this MINIMUM REQUIREMENT, you will receive a 0 for the assignment.
• You SHOULD NOT AND CANNOT do any outside research to complete these assignments. Papers will be subject to originality analysis by Turnitin.com. If Turnitin.com shows that you have included outside resources, then you will receive a 0% for that paper.
• Paper Format
  • Part 1:
    • Head this part, “Summary.” Because you are submitting electronically, you do not need a formal heading with you name, my name, the class, etc. Just put the heading at the top and begin writing.
