I need an explanation for this Management question to help me study.

We’ve all had experiences where we have been frustrated by a decision that our supervisor made. You have probably blamed this decision on your boss being “closed-minded,” “stubborn,” or “pigheaded.” But after reading the background materials you should be able to more precisely examine and define the precise decision-making biases or pitfalls that your supervisor made.

For this assignment, think of three bad decisions that your current or past supervisors made. For each decision, explain what bias discussed in the background materials likely led to this bad decision. You must use biases specifically discussed in Bolland and Fletcher (2012); Kourdi (2003); or Hammond, Keeney, and Raiffa (2008). For each of the three decisions, include:

A) A brief description of the decision and why you think it was a bad one

B) What kind of bias you think lead to this decision, and why

C) A reference to one of the background readings from this module

Finally, conclude your paper with a discussion about which of the three readings from the background materials would be most useful for your supervisor to read in order to help make better decisions and avoid biases. Explain why you think this reading would be more useful than the other two readings.

The paper should be 2–3 pages in length.

SLP Assignment Expectations

• Follow the assignment instructions closely and follow all steps listed in the instructions.
• Stay focused on the precise assignment questions; don’t go off on tangents or devote a lot of space to summarizing general background materials.
• Make sure to cite readings from the background materials page. Rely primarily on the required background readings as your sources of information.

Include both a bibliography and in-text citations. See the Student Guide to Writing a High-Quality Academic Paper, including pages 13 and 14 on in-text citations.

I need help with a Computer Science question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

Using search engines, find two different recent articles involving data mining. Describe the role of “data mining” in the story using and why the data mining is important your own words (at least 200 words for each URL). Be sure to cite your sources.

Here is an example of an article:

https://www.thedailystar.net/frontpage/new-police-unit-check-cyber-crime-1515997

I don’t understand this Law question and need help to study.

In this course, we have examined public policy and theories of criminology and evidence-based practices (EBP) and how these concepts are being used and applied across the spectrum of the criminal justice system in the United States. In your initial post, reflect on the following questions using the knowledge you have gained in this course:

1. Can our society adjust to the use of EBP as a foundation for decision making by the actors within the criminal justice system? Or is this just a “fad”?
2. Can a country like the United States, which has more of its population incarcerated than any other nation, feel comfortable and safe incarcerating fewer people and instead using EBP to cater to the needs of specific inmates? Can society take that risk?
3. Can law enforcement rethink policing and police based on evidence and not tradition?
4. Can courts view “justice” with an evidence-based foundation?

When responding to your classmates’ posts, share your views on their comments and point out how you agree or disagree with their positions. If you disagree, challenge their conclusions. Further, in what ways will the positions taken by your classmates affect the future state of public policy in the United States? Cite examples from your research in the course.

Responses to respond are attached.

Video Transcript

The primary goal of the Learning and Cognition Handbook assignment is to integrate concepts from the discipline of learning and cognitive psychology into a usable and professional guide that is designed for a specific audience based on your career goals. The purpose of this handbook is to share helpful strategies and apply what you have learned from the course to six major topics in the field. You will incorporate your findings from required sources and the relevant sources you researched in the Week 2 Discipline-Based Literature Review, as well as those from the Week 3 Assignment: Choosing Your Focus.

To complete this assignment, you may utilize the Learning and Cognition Handbook template or create your own using the template as a guide. Your handbook should include the sections listed below, incorporating a minimum of one visual (e.g., table, figure, or image (Links to an external site.)) with a maximum of five visuals per section. Each image must be retrieved and cited based on current copyright laws. You may wish to use the Where to Get Free Images guide for assistance with accessing freely available public domain and/or Creative Commons licensed images.

Handbook Sections:

Table of Contents
List all sections and subsections included in the handbook with the applicable page numbers.

Preface (100 to 150 words)
Provide an overview of the handbook and its potential use by your chosen audience.

Introduction to the Major Topics (200 to 300 words)
Provide an introductory summary of the six topics listed below and discuss any careers in psychology specifically related to at least one of them:

• Traditional learning theories: Operant and classical conditioning
• Traditional learning theories: Behaviorism and social learning theory
• Attention and memory
• Decision-Making
• Language acquisition
• Organizational and lifelong learning

Describe how one or more of these areas may be connected to your future career goals.

Major Topics (1 to 2 pages for each major topic)
Communicate the extent to which the six major topics of learning and cognition affect related sub-topics by synthesizing the course learning principles and/or theories. Consider how these sub-topics may be related to your future career goals. For instance, if you intend to become an applied behavior analyst, behaviorism and related technique for learning may be directly connected to your future role. For each major topic, apply basic research methods and skeptical inquiry to explain the theoretical perspectives and empirical research that substantiate the relationship between the topic and at least two related sub-topics. In your review, consider how these topic and sub-topics are directly connected to evaluations and interventions in psychology practice in various fields. Focus on the areas most related to your future area of practice, paying particular attention to how theories are examined in research studies. The following are some sub-topics to consider:

• Comprehension
• Operant and classical conditioning
• Behaviorism
• Social learning theory
• Problem solving
• Memory development/retention
• Lifelong learning
• Individual and group learning
• Organizational learning
• Mentorship
• Apprenticeship models of learning
• Effects of demographic differences (e.g., gender, socioeconomics, religious affiliation, race) on learning

Although creative liberties are encouraged, all information incorporated should be supported and professionally presented through the consistent application of ethical principles and adherence to professional standards of learning and cognition psychology as applied to the chosen audience.

Conclusion (200 to 300 words)
Summarize the importance of the topics within the learning and cognition domain and their applicability within the psychology profession for the chosen audience.

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

I have a rhetoric&research writing course. If you good at it and have time to finish it. I’d like to share the whole semester assignment with you.

1.

Please write a short—i.e, about a 500- or 600-word—introduction of yourself as a writer, reader, researcher, critical thinker, engaged citizen.

One possible place to start is to think about specific times in your life—at college or before college, in a class at school or in a non-academic context—when you’ve gotten excited about writing, reading, or researching something. Reflect a little on these moments of excitement (and again, they don’t have to be drawn from an academic context). What was it that made these moments more fun or interesting than other experiences you’ve had with writing, reading, and researching? Were there particular discoveries that you made about yourself as a writer, reader, or researcher during these moments? Can you quote a specific passage that you wrote or read—or can you describe in detail some research that you did—and explain what made it interesting/exciting for you?

Here’s another possible prompt: think about a time when you’ve been moved to learn more about (or even take action with regard to) a particular social or political issue. What was it that made you interested in this particular problem? How did you go about deepening your knowledge of it? Are there political/social issues that you’d like to learn more about or get more involved in right now? If so, why? How might you begin to do so?

Have there been moments in your life when you’ve felt like an “engaged citizen”? If not, why not? What does being engaged in political or civic life mean to you, if anything? Voting in elections? Being part of a club on campus? Volunteering at a soup kitchen? Fighting to expand the rights of immigrants in the US? Something else?

What does “critical thinking” mean to you? Can you give specific examples from your own experience of moments when you’ve “thought critically” about something? (Not “criticized” something—that’s not the same thing!) Again, feel free to think about examples that don’t come from an academic context….

You certainly don’t have to respond to all (or even any) of the questions/prompts above. But please try to give specific examples from your past as a writer, reader, researcher, critical thinker, and/or engaged citizen. And if you’d like to use “multi-modal” elements—for instance, audio clips, videos, graphics, screen captures, links, whatever you like—feel free to do so!

Here are a few more prompts, in case you weren’t taken with the questions/suggestions above:

When did you recognize a successful writing strategy in your own work, and how did you see it, finally, exemplified on the page? Explain, and give your best example.

Have you had success with particular organizing or outlining strategies, or other methods or writing?

What specific element of a past writing class do you most value or best remember? For instance, thesis development, appealing to an audience, understanding purpose, recognizing tone? Arguments constructed on logos, pathos or ethos?

What is an area you do well at in writing, and what is an area you’d like to improve in?

2. reading question

Read the Introduction (pp. 1-14) and Chapters 12-13 (pp. 291-323) of Temp, as well as the New York Times (Links to an external site.), LA Review of Books (Links to an external site.), The Nation (Links to an external site.), and Harvard Business Review (Links to an external site.) reviews of Hyman’s book. Make sure to annotate and take notes on the texts.

Now, do your best to answer the questions below in a few (i.e., 3-4) sentences. You’ll almost certainly need to re-read certain passages and look up certain terms in order to do this. Also, it will probably be a good idea to mark the passages and note down the page numbers where you found your answers.

1) In the Introduction of Temp, Hyman writes that the post-1970 transformation of the American workforce “was not a conspiracy of a few, but a consensus of the many” (5). What does he mean by this? What were some of the shifts that led to the transformation of work that Hyman is trying to explain?

2) What does Hyman mean by the “Second Industrious Revolution”? How does he compare the shifts that took place in 18th- and 19th-century capitalism to the organizational and technological shifts taking place today?

3) On p. 292 of Chapter 12, Hyman quotes Stephane Kasriel, the CEO of Upwork: “There is nothing new here. Firms have been subcontracting to other firms for decades.” This seems to confirm Hyman’s argument that technology hasn’t caused the “gig economy,” but simply reinforced it. Yet Hyman does seem to think that there is something genuinely new about recent online platforms like Upwork, Uber, Etsy, etc. What?

4) Describe the connection that Hyman makes between Virtual Reality (VR) technology and the “migration problem.”

5) In a few sentences (or perhaps even a short paragraph), do your best to describe (in your own words) the overall argument that Hyman will be making in this book.

3. Vocabulary

First, read the Introduction (pp. 1-14) and Chapters 12-13 (pp. 291-323) of Temp, as well as the New York Times (Links to an external site.), LA Review of Books (Links to an external site.), The Nation (Links to an external site.), and Harvard Business Review (Links to an external site.) reviews of Hyman’s book. You might also browse the CQ Researcher article on “The Gig Economy.”

Now, I’d like you to write 2-3 sentences in which you define the 10 terms, laws, policies, and historical movements/moments/processes listed below. Please do not simply copy-and-paste the first few sentences of the Wikipedia article (though Wikipedia might be where you start your research). Try to go deeper. For a broad term like “Labor Union” or “Keynesianism,” think about how these terms relate to Temp. What is the most important thing for you to understand about these terms with regards to Hyman’s argument? For the more specific terms—e.g., “Great Recession of 2008” or “IRS Form 1099″—try to include a little background for these terms. For example, what are some of the causes and consequences of the “Great Recession”? How might this connect to changes in the way people work in the U.S.?

The point of this assignment is to begin building a vocabulary so that we can understand the context for the argument that Hyman is making in Temp. Building your vocabulary is part of research! The more fully you understand these terms now, the easier the reading (and your Contexts Project research, too) will become.

1) Temporary Agency

2) Management Consulting

3) The New Deal (mention the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 and the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938)

4) Labor Union

5) Deindustrialization

6) Keynesianism

7) Great Recession of 2008

8) Income Inequality + Wealth Inequality (what’s the difference?)

9) IRS Form 1099 (vs. Form W-2)

10) Adjunct Faculty in higher education

Help me study for my Psychology class. I’m stuck and don’t understand.

ASSIGNMENT SIX: One of Abraham Lincoln’s greatest attributes may have been his ability to recover and learn from failure. The quality of perseverance seemed especially useful to him as he struggled with “melancholy” (what might now be called depression). Please read this article by Joshua Wolf Shenk. Read the full article; it’s worth your time. Your answer should contain information from this article only. Do not use other sources).

Two questions for you to answer:

[a] Joshua Wolf Shenk wrote that one of Lincoln’s adaptation strategies was “transcendence” (rising above or even using “melancholy” to achieve a higher purpose). According to Shenk, what was Lincoln’s “higher purpose?” Provide a direct quotation from the article to support your analysis. 150 words minimum

[b] What idea or insight in the full article would you recommend to others (a friend, perhaps)? Provide a direct quotation from the article to support your analysis. 150 words minimum

*Important reminder:
It’s essential to use quotation marks or block indentation when you incorporate any language from any source. It’s equally important to avoid a “deceptive” or “patchwork paraphrase” (changing or adding occasional words, but otherwise using the author’s core ideas and phraseology without attribution).

I’m stuck on a Business question and need an explanation.
