Research one of the Roman Emperors and using what is known about their political lives, write a campaign speech for today, referencing their accomplishments (or terrorizings), as potential campaign promises
Objective: Research the Roman Emperors and apply one of the political lives to a modern campaign
speech.
Instructions: Research one of the Roman Emperors and using what is known about their political
lives, write a campaign speech for today, referencing their accomplishments (or terrorizings), as
potential campaign promises. In other words, if one of the emperors burned down Atlanta because it
was a mortal enemy of the Roman state, then you could reference in your speech how Atlanta needs to
be stopped and if need be, burned to the ground. See what I mean? You can use anything from their
personal and professional histories.
Using their actual political goals and stories, write a 400-600 word speech declaring why you (as the
Roman emperor you have chosen) should be named as the new Emperor of Rome. (Youre not
emperor yet, so this is your speech to become emperor
yes, I know thats not how it *actually* goes,
but lets have some fun)
Consider these things: how do politicians address scandals, political platforms, wants and desires in
their speeches. What should be said to convince the people of this empire that you (as the Roman
Emperor) would be perfect for them? You may want to review some speeches to get a few ideas of
what people say to guarantee the masses this is a good idea, if you can find some from that time.
So, how would you approach the people of Rome and its territories to convince them you should be
emperor? Knowing what you found out about your emperor, write your speech to play up your
strengths as a possible candidate and address their needs as well. You can be serious or funny, as long
as you are persuasive and can convince your (possible) future citizens.

Instructions
Selecting a Populated Area and its Culture or Subculture
The organization, the culture or subculture, and the product that you chose in Unit I will be the subject for basic research for the remainder of the course. Research will be required to form a solid base for matching one of the two populated areas to your organizations product with focus on the culture and subcultures of your selected country and populated area.
For deciding on a populated area, you will review, at a minimum, two cultures or subcultures. Take into account the selected products compatibility. For each of these, you should research a minimum of two sources with divergent views. The review will require a focus on the outcome, but not an outcome that you predetermine. Let the discussions used in comparing material from one source against the other sources guide you to a conclusion. You may use the Assignment Template to assist you in formatting.
It is important to ensure the absolute separation of what writing comes from your brain and what information comes from your sources. There must never be any doubt in the readers mind regarding what is original information and what is referenced material. To do this, the in-text citations must be impeccable. In the Unit II Required Unit Resources section, you will be able to access the Sample Research Paper. Use this model to prepare your in-text citations and references.
The body for this assignment will provide a detailed description of the process used to select the organization and the product. Your submission must be a minimum of two pages in length, although you should not limit the thoroughness of your research and discussion based on this minimum requirement. The format will include, but is not be limited to, the elements listed below.
Utilize at least two sources.
Discuss source material that is supporting your final decision for culture or subculture and product compatibility.
Restate the issue, question, or task that the document will be analyzing, whichin this caseis narrowing choices to two countries with one recommendation and selecting one product.
Provide pros or cons, good and bad ideas, and poor and excellent results (i.e., do not prejudge the outcome).
Provide an analysis of your research from all sides; once again, do not slant the analysis toward a specific flow.
Now, provide the Board of Directors with conclusions and recommendations.
Include in-text citations and references.
Document your sources and relevant notes for use when formatting in-text citations and references. Adhere to APA Style (7th ed.) when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed.

important ways. You may explore anything you like, such as the characters personality
traits, actions, complexities, symbolic purpose, and relation to or influence on others, but be
sure to organize your thoughts into three distinct points. This will form your central thesis
an argument or debatable statement that will take the essay beyond a simple discussion.

From the perspectives of leaders and teachers, how do people working at schools in Saudi Arabia make sense of the Tatweer policy
5 Aims of the Study
The overall aim of this study is to explore the Tatweer policy in the light of the enactment of power dynamics within the school systems of Saudi Arabia. It aims mainly to investigate the perceptions by school leaders and teachers of the policy. It also attempts to explore the practices of school leaders and teachers affected by the introduction of Tatweer. It seeks to understand the tensions and possibilities experienced by school leaders and teachers when enacting the policy. Its purpose is to inform policy makers and researchers about the ways in which the Tatweer policy is enacted in different schools in the country.
1.6 Research Questions
1. From the perspectives of leaders and teachers, how do people working at schools in Saudi Arabia make sense of the Tatweer policy?
This question explores what the leaders and teachers think of the Tatweer policy. It will also elaborate how they make sense of the policy in their settings. Given that policy can be enacted differently by different people (Ball et al., 2012), this question will investigate Tatweer as both a process and outcome that undergoes multiple interpretations in various settings. Specifically, this question will investigate: what is happening in the leaders and teachers mind about Tatweer policy? How do they construct meaning? How do they explain and rationalize the policy? How do they justify the policy? What is their interpretation of, and attitude towards, the policy?
2. In which ways are the practices of school leaders and teachers affected by the introduction of the Tatweer policy?
This question moves from what school leaders and teachers think of the policy to what they do when the policy is introduced in schools. It explores how the Tatweer policy affects the practices of school leaders and teachers in Saudi Arabia and what they do differently as a result. Since school leaders and teachers are people down there who should implement the policy developed by the government up there (Bell and Stevenson, 2013), this question will also explore specific measures, programmes and activities developed by school leaders and principal in response to Tatweer policy.
3. What are the tensions and possibilities experienced by school leaders and teachers when enacting Tatweer policy?
This connects to the earlier two questions. This question will investigate tensions and possibilities that leaders and teachers experience when enacting the policy. Specifically, it will explore how easy or difficult is it to encourage an alignment between thought and action amongst school leaders and teachers? Are there any tensions between what they think and what they do? Does the Tatweer policy make the school leaders and teachers do things that they do not believe in?
