MANAGEMENT IN THE 21ST CENTURY
Assignment Overview
Assessing your Leadership Skills
In this weeks Case Assignment, you researched essential
management concepts. Critically assessing managerial skills
throughout your career allows for continued growth. For the SLP,
you will complete a self-evaluation which will include a plan for
growth/development and skill-building based on the following
Managerial Skill Assessment Categories of Planning, Organizing,
Leading, and Controlling:
Planning: A managers role in supporting the companys vision and
mission and how managers establish and track goals and
objectives for themselves and their teams.
Organizing: Organization Design, including individual job
responsibilities, and maintaining Corporate Culture and Social
Networks.
Leading: Leadership and Decision-Making, Working in Groups or
Teams, Motivating subordinates, or managing a Diverse Workforce.
Controlling: Systems/Processes (Establishing and tracking
performance standards), or Strategic Human Resources: having
the right people in positions.
SLP 1 Resources: Use the following Sources to help fill out the
attached template.

Describes at least two new pieces of information you learned about hidden bias, prejudice, stereotyping, stigma, or discrimination as a result of reviewing the information and taking the tests.
3 to 4 double-spaced pages, Times New Roman 12-point font with 1-inch margins. Paper and references should follow APA format. Paper should be written in 1st person.
Visit the Test Yourself for Hidden Bias on the Learning for Justice website (formerly Teaching Tolerance)Links to an external site.. (results attached)
Read the information provided regarding “Stereotypes and Prejudices”.
After reading the information, complete the Race Implicit Association Test (Race IAT) and at least two (2) additional Implicit Association TestsLinks to an external site..(results attached)
After completing the tests, write a reflection paper that:
Describes at least two new pieces of information you learned about hidden bias, prejudice, stereotyping, stigma, or discrimination as a result of reviewing the information and taking the tests.
How this new information helped you better understand an experience you have had personally or an experience someone else has encountered with hidden bias (write this content in your own words).
Students must reference at least two (2) sources in addition to the course textbook and the Learning for Justice website (formerly Teaching Tolerance)Links to an external site.
Remember, your reflection paper should be written in 1st person.
Use the APA Style Resources to help you format your paper and your references. [More clarifying details are also listed below.]
Ensure you complete Race Implicit Association Test (Race IAT) *and* at least two (2) additional Implicit Association Tests. In other words, you must complete a minimum of 3 IATs.
Within your paper, clearly state that you took the Race IAT and then proceed to write about your results from the Race IAT.
Within your paper, clearly specify the two additional IATs that you completed. For example, you can state something like, “I also completed the ABCD IAT and the LMNO IAT and they provided me with the following feedback…”
In addition to completing the 3 required IATs and describing the results in your paper, your paper must also address the following prompts:
Describe at least two (2) new pieces of information you have learned about hidden bias, prejudice, stereotyping, stigma, or discrimination (as a result of reviewing the material and taking the 3 IATs).
Write, in your own words, how this new information helped you better understand an experience you have had personally or an experience someone else has encountered with hidden bias. Please provide enough context of the “who, what, where, when, why, and how” of the experience you choose to share so you can further describe your enhanced understanding of hidden bias. For example, those scenarios may include an experience wherein:
you felt hidden bias towards someone or
you were the recipient of hidden bias or
you witnessed hidden bias.
Use your course textbook, the Learning for Justice website (formerly Teaching Tolerance)Links to an external site., *and* at least two (2) additional sources (for a minimum of 4 different sources).
In other words, there will be 4 entries on your list of references. You may use more, if you so choose.
In-text citations and sources used (reference page) should be formatted according to APA style.
For more information about in-text citations, refer to Chapter 8 of the 7th edition APA Manual or this APA Style resource regarding ‘Author-Date Citation System’.Links to an external site.
To review formatting and structure of various reference examples, refer to Chapters 9 and 10 of the 7th edition APA Manual or this APA Style resource regarding ‘Reference Examples’Links to an external site..
3 to 4 page limit does NOT include the cover page and the page(s) listing the references. You will not lose points for having cover and reference pages.

. For this problem you will fit multi- exponential decay functions using MATLABs fminsearch utility. The dataset can be downloaded and read into your function that returns ?2: 2~?(() ? ())2 =1 of a fit based on your input parameters; see the Ch.3 of Matlab for the Physical Scientist for an example for fitting a line. a. First try fitting a single exponential decay: Amplitude = A ? e?t ?? (5 pts) b. Next, use the variance-covariance method to estimate the errors of your fitted amplitude and time constant, and report your answers as Amplitude ± and ? ± . Note that much of this is also worked out in Ch. 3 of Matlab for the Physical Scientist. (5 pts)
Chem 240 Problem Set 1 Makeup
1. For this problem you will fit multi-
exponential decay functions using
MATLABs fminsearch utility. The dataset
can be downloaded and read into your
function that returns ?2:
2~?(() ? ())2
=1
of a fit based on your input parameters;
see the Ch.3 of Matlab for the Physical
Scientist for an example for fitting a line.
a. First try fitting a single exponential
decay:
Amplitude = A ? e?t ?? (5 pts)
b. Next, use the variance-covariance method to estimate the errors of your fitted
amplitude and time constant, and report your answers as Amplitude ± and ?
± . Note that much of this is also worked out in Ch. 3 of Matlab for the Physical
Scientist. (5 pts)
FYI here are some additional MATLAB commands for you to know on plotting
data with the optimum fit that you derive using fminsearch:
>> plot(prob1(:,1),prob1(:,2),’b’)
>> hold on
>> plot(prob1(:,1),fit,’k–‘)
>> xlabel(‘Time (s)’)
>> ylabel(‘Amplitude’)
>> set(gca,’TickDir’,’out’);
2. For this question download this
dataset, which is the same from
question one but with a 3rd column that
gives you the size of the error bars.
Next, repeat the analysis of question 1a
using the error bars in the data analysis.
To this end, you have to modify your
calculation function to include the errors
to the data points via:
2~?(
1
2) ? (() ? ())2
=1
Plot the data again using the errorbar function of MATLAB (see code snippet
below) with an overlaying fit to the data. Note that your fitted parameters should
be nearly identical to that from problem 1. (5 pts)
FYI, here is some more MATLAB code for you to make a nice figure for this
dataset:
>> errorbar(prob2(:,1),prob2(:,2),prob2(:,3))
>> xlabel(‘Time (s)’)
>> ylabel(‘Amplitude’)
>> set(gca,’TickDir’,’out’);
b. Now use the errors per data point to calculate and . Please print out
your program and present the results in the form: Amplitude ± and ? ± .
(5 pts)
3. For this problem we will fit a signal
that isnt quite what it appears to be at
first.
a. First download the dataset. Next,
use fminsearch to find the optimal
parameters for a single exponential
decay. Please include a copy of your
program with your optimized amplitude
and time constant and a graph with the
fit. (5 pts)
b. You may have noticed that the fit wasnt so good. As a result, try an
exponential decay with a linear component:
Amplitude = A ? e?t ?1? + B ? t (5 pts)
For both parts please provide a graph with a fit for your answer, the best fit
amplitudes (A&B) and the time constant ?1, and a copy of your programs.
4. a. For this problem, please fit a
Gaussian to this dataset of the intensity
of a UV/Vis spectra peak. The function
is:
Intensity = A ? e?(??0)
2 22?
where you have to calculate the
optimum amplitude A, center
wavelength 0, and sigma (). As usual
please provide a copy of your program
and a graph with the data and your fit.
(5 pts)
b. Use the variance-covariance method to calculate the errors of the three fitted
parameters and report your answer as : Amplitude ± , 0 ± 0, and ± .
Of course provide a copy of your program. (15 pts)
