ENGL 2311 Recommendation Presentation

2

Purpose

To present your recommendation to a leader of a real company in an industry or field of your choosing.

Assignment

Create the equivalent to a 10- to 15-minute presentation for your UNSOLICITED recommendation to be delivered to a leader of a real company in an industry or field of your choosing. Because our course is online, your presentation should be delivered electronically using easily accessed presentation software: PowerPoint, Keynote, Prezi, Moviemaker, iMovie, or another. (You will need to practice your presentation to determine the appropriate number of slides because presentation length is largely determined by the presenter’s style; however, you are not required to actually present your work, record your voice, etc.)

Your presentation should include the highlights of your report, be visually appealing, and complement your report. Essentially, it should be a shortened version of your long, well-researched and prepared recommendation report.

NOTE: Your presentation should NOT be slides with large blocks of text taken from your report or research. The report and presentation should work together in persuading your audience.

· The content of your report should include the following sections (further explained in Chapter 13 and in the class notes): introduction (summary of context and recommendation), scope (what the report covers and why), and discussion (analysis of criteria—the factors used in making the decision), and conclusion (final thoughts and reminder of recommendation).

Audience

Write this for an expert audience. Select a specific leader of a real company in an industry or field of your choosing.

Constraints

You are welcome to include elaboration in the “Notes” of your slides, since you will not actually be delivering your presentation.

Reading Requirements

Notes from class and Chapters 3 and 13

Assignment Details

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) entitles eligible employees of covered employers to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave.

You have an employee who is asking about the FMLA because she needs to take leave from work to care for a family member who is seriously ill. You are going to meet with her to explain it. Prepare a PowerPoint presentation (minimum of 8 slides) and address the following:

  • Overview of FMLA
  • Does the state where you currently reside have its own FMLA?
  • How does FMLA apply in the workplace?
  • Who does it apply to?
  • Does it apply in this situation?
  • Is FMLA paid or unpaid leave? Is using accrued paid vacation leave, paid sick leave, or family leave allowed?
  • What is required to be approved for FMLA?

Include a minimum of 1 graph or chart in your presentation.

Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, you will need the following:

  • Title slide: Remember the running head. The title should be in all capitals.
  • Length: 8 slides minimum
  • Body slides: This begins on the slide following the title slide and must be double-spaced (be careful not to triple- or quadruple-space between paragraphs). The typeface should be 12-pt. Times Roman or 12-pt. Courier in regular black type. Do not use color, bold type, or italics, except as required for APA-level headings and references. The deliverable length of the body of your presentation for this assignment is 8 slides. In-body academic citations to support your decisions and analysis are required. A variety of academic sources is encouraged.
  • Reference slide: References that align with your in-body academic sources are listed on the final slide of your presentation. The references must be in APA format using appropriate spacing, hanging indent, italics, and uppercase and lowercase usage as appropriate for the type of resource used. Remember, the Reference slide is not a bibliography but a further listing of the abbreviated in-body citations used in the paper. Every referenced item must have a corresponding in-body citation.

Describe the purpose of an audit. How can the audit experience be viewed as positive?

After posting your response, respond to at least 2 of your peers. In responding to your peers, share your thoughts and experiences with audits and what you may have done or been involved with to turn the experience into a positive one.

When does the First Amendment’s Free Exercise of Religion Clause justify a discriminatory business practice?

QUESTION FOR THIS FORUM DISCUSSION: When does the First Amendment’s Free Exercise of Religion Clause justify a discriminatory business practice?
In forming your discussion, READ and COMPARE: Masterpiece Cakeshop, Ltd. v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, 138 S.Ct. 1718 (2018). Masterpiece Cakeshop, Ltd. (a small bakery, whose owner refused to create and sell a wedding cake to a same-sex couple for their wedding because their homosexual marriage was against his religious beliefs) and State of Washington v. Arlene’s Flowers, Case No. 91615-2 (Wash., June 6, 2019)(florist claimed right to deny flowers to same-sex wedding for reason of religion).
ADDITIONAL HELP SOURCES:
Another case you should consider is the Court’s finding of race discrimination under the Commerce Clause in Katzenbach v. McClung, 379 U.S. 294 (1964). Would it make a difference if the restaurant owner claimed segregation of the races was required by his religion?
