How climate change affects agriculture in South and Central America.
The Final Project Proposal is a written submission in which students identify and discuss the issue(s) surrounding their chosen themes/topics and propose a program, initiative, or activity that will address those issues. For example, a student from a previous semester chose the theme of Climate Change and Natural Disasters for his project package. For the Final Project Product Proposal, he discussed how climate change affects agriculture in South and Central America. Within the proposal, he identified the issue and causes, prior attempts and deficiencies in addressing the issue, and proposed the solution of enhancing global awareness through art (making information pertaining to climate change more appealing and interesting for a targeted audience).
I have added the book and samples of the assignment.
Potential theme/topics/global health problems include, but will not necessarily be limited to:
COVID-19 (highly recommended)

As a result of consuming American cultural products, do people in your country experience some positive and/or negative effects?
Write an essay in which you, as a person who has experienced both your own and American culture, critically evaluate the extent to which O’Connor’s and Rice-Oxley’s impression about the pervasive American influence on world culture holds true in your country. (The two authors say that the whole world has been influenced by American
culture. Is it true in your country? Why?) Then, discuss the impact of such Americanization in your country. (As a result of consuming American cultural products, do people in your country experience some positive and/or negative effects? What are they?)
If you left your country long ago, try to recall your impression on your latest visit home.
If you haven’t visited your country recently, interview those who have.
In order to accomplish this task, you need to decide on a few specific aspects of American culture because it is not possible to discuss many aspects effectively and persuasively in the limited space of this essay. You could focus on food (e.g., McDonald’s, Kentucky Fried Chicken, TGIF, Starbucks), or on commercial products (e.g., clothes, shoes, bags, phones, computers), or on entertainment (e.g., movies, TV shows, music, video games), or on how American English has been imported into your language(s).
You should cite at least six sources (four sources from the textbook and two from outside sources—international sources are accepted).
Write about China.
Describe key signs and symptoms that were consistent with a sexually transmitted infection (STI) versus a non-STI related infection.
Week 4: Practicum – Journal Entry
Reflect on a patient who presented with a vaginal discharge during your Practicum Experience. Describe key signs and symptoms that were consistent with a sexually transmitted infection (STI) versus a non-STI related infection. If you diagnosed the patient with an STI, describe your experience in telling the patient that she had an STI, as well as the patient’s reaction to the diagnosis. Explain how the diagnosis might impact the patient’s life short-term and long-term. Include an explanation of the patient’s medical history, drug therapy and treatments, and follow-up care. If you did not have an opportunity to evaluate a patient with this background during the last four weeks, you may select a related case study from a reputable source or reflect on previous clinical experiences.

What are the benefits and limitations of Amazon’s online retail model?
For Part 3, you will submit a rough draft of your project with two new pieces added. The directions for these two steps are below.
- Having posed your pricing question, the next task is to come up with a way of testing the hypothesis with real-world data. Three potential sources are:
- Historical data on sales and prices that is publicly available.
- Hypothetical price surveys
- Google marketing keywords (if you are working with a real company). Example: Sales results on Kraft shredded cheeses versus Kraft block cheeses
- After testing your hypothesis/questions with data, and finding evidence to recommend for or against a particular pricing improvement, it is time to write up your results; producing two different forms of your final course project:
- A 10-15 minute presentation that communicates the question you asked, how you used data to ask it, and what you found. Assume your audience is upper management at a firm that operates in this industry. This means that you will have to work hard to convey complex and sometimes technical pricing points to a non-technical audience. You may do this presentation in PowerPoint, YouTube video, or Prezi. The choice is yours, but it must contain narration. Please see Microsoft Offices’ tutorial on adding narration to PowerPoint presentations. You can also submit a video of your presentation – the easiest way is to record (video camera, flipcam, or phone video) and then upload to YouTube and share the link.
- A two-three page summary/handout that summarizes your presentation and includes all the technical details of your calculations. There can be extra tables/figures in this hand-out as an appendix. This can be as technical as you like!
Attached is what i have done so far :
here are the Questions to Consider for first bullet point
- What are the benefits and limitations of Amazon’s online retail model?
- How does Amazon.com change the market for shopping other products such as clothes, shoes, etc?
- Amazon has a huge catalog of products for sale. How does the design of Amazon’s web site facilitate the user’s effort to locate a particular product?
- Have you noticed Amazon offering certain items cheaper than the competition?
Should a consumer avoid purchasing products made with palm oil?
The increased demand for palm oils in prepared foods has encouraged the mass destruction of rainforest in Indonesia for the purpose of planting palm tree plantations. The loss of rainforest threatens the ecosystem and many animal species.
In one page, answer the following:
Should a consumer avoid purchasing products made with palm oil?
Using ethical theory, explain why you feel the use of palm oil is ethical or not. Also using ethical theory, explain the reasoning for the opposing position and why it is incorrect.
USE OUTSIDE SOURCES as well as the textbook: Ethics: Theory and Practice (Updated 11th edition) Chapter 16 (attached)
Provide a paragraph summarizing the concept of stakeholder management based on your readings.
THE HISTORY OF BUSINESS ETHICS AND STAKEHOLDER THEORY IN AMERICA
Business Ethics and Stakeholder Management
For your SLP this session you will be asked to review articles on business ethics from the Trident Online Library. You will review one or more articles each in Modules 1 through 4 dealing with different ethical concepts.
In this SLP we will be reviewing articles that cover the concept of stakeholder management. Stakeholders are important to consider in significant business related decisions. This is because organizational decisions – especially substantial decisions involving significant resource allocations/re-allocations – tend to impact various stakeholder groups as you will be reminded in your reading. These stakeholders may have the power to impact the organization’s success.
Assignment Instructions:
In this assignment you will be asked to apply stakeholder management theory to the following scenario:
A public corporation of 980 employees manufactures a popular brand of garments (mostly jeans) that are primarily made and sold in America nation-wide. It has a large contingent of employees in several small rural communities in the Eastern US and is the primary employer in all of those communities. Two if its 5 shops are unionized but the union and management have a good working relationship. The company has traditionally marketed its clothing line as “Made in the USA” and attracted a bit of a “cult like” following as a result, but an outside consulting firm has suggested that significantly greater profits are possible if a different strategy is employed. The corporation is subsequently considering whether to off-shore its manufacturing facilities to a poor nation to save money on labor. It would also discretely discontinue its “Made in the USA” marketing ads and hopefully ride the wave of its previous marketing campaigns for a while. It is estimated that total cost per unit of production will be decreased by one third which equates to tens of millions of dollars.
Please write a 3-page paper in which you respond to the following:
1. Provide a paragraph summarizing the concept of stakeholder management based on your readings.
2. How do you think the following stakeholder groups in the above scenario will be impacted?
· Employees/unions
· Communities
· Stockholders
3. What would you recommend the employer described above should do?
SLP Assignment Expectations
Your 3 (or more) page paper should be double-spaced and in 12-point type.
Your paper should have a separate cover page and if you are using any in-text citations then a separate reference page.
Use APA style, and proofread your paper
What are the strengths of basing an ethic entirely on human reason?
Assignment 2: Discussion Question – The Place of Reason
Kant sees reason as the only basis for any universal ethics. This gives little room for human emotions such as sympathy, empathy, happiness, etc. It also means that Kant does not count results or consequences as being ethically relevant. Please address the following:
- What are the strengths of basing an ethic entirely on human reason?
- What are the flaws of such an ethic?
- Develop an example of a universal maxim that we as citizens in a democratic republic ought to see realized in our own country. Choose something that is not already established in the Constitution such as free speech, freedom to worship, or freedom from unwarranted search and seizure.
- What role does human reason play in the development and maintenance of this maxim?
Post an original response to the Discussion Area.

For this assignment you will select a specific group from the following list:
- Veterans
- Minorities
- Individuals with disabilities
- College students
- Individuals from welfare to work
- Single parents
- Displaced workers
- Late-life career loss
- Individuals with minimal work experience or large gaps in employment
- Individual changing careers
Write a paper of 1,750 to 2,100 words that can be used as a resource when working with an individual from the selected group. Use scholarly resources to support your use of a specific career theory as well as interventions with this population. The paper should include the following:
- An explanation of who the population is and why it is important for this group to receive career counseling (CACREP 2.F.4.e)
- Statistics on the group (e.g., how large, how many have employment problems, how many utilize career counseling) (CACREP 2.F.4.c)
- Discussion of career counseling theory to be used with the group (e.g., Minnesota theory of work adjustment). Include evidence supporting the use of this theory in the general population as well as within the group. Please note: If none is available, it is important to indicate that as well. (CACREP 2.F.4.a)
- Basic plan for counseling utilizing chosen theory (e.g., interview, use of assessment tools, explanation of theory) (CACREP 2.F.4.a, CACREP 2.F.4.i)
- Environmental/personal barriers that may prevent the client from finding work (e.g., disability, substance use history, felony, transportation, limited computer access) and specific intervention plans to address barriers (CACREP 2.F.4.b, CACREP 2.F.4.g, CACRE 2.F.4.j)
- Relevant and local resources available to help the client obtain work (e.g., job center, training programs, support groups) and a description of activities and supplemental materials that can be used by the individual (CACREP 2.F.4.h)
- Based on the information listed above, provide some recommendations with regard to your plan to include your opinion on whether this plan is tenable and if you think if it can work. (CACREP 2.F.4.f)
- A discussion of how spirituality can be incorporated into career counseling. As examples, when counseling a Jewish client that observes the Sabbath, the counselor would want to talk to them about considering the work schedule when looking for employment or the counselor could ask questions about purpose and value as it relates to finding employment. Please refer to the Vocation and Lifelong Spiritual Formation: A Christian Integrative Perspective on Calling in Mid-Career article for your response.
- A minimum of eight scholarly references.
