Interim Check-in Report Guidelines Japan Tourism

 

Please design a very well researched and completed report and presentation outlining an innovative and thorough marketing program for “Japan” for the

year 2018 (that’s correct, plan for next year). You should do thorough background research on tourism patterns, venue, culture, tourism offerings,

economic environment, political environment, physical environment, travel industry role in the venue (meetings, group travel, accommodations, etc.). You

may
rely on existing marketing information but you MUST create a new marketing concept and program (this is VERY important that you do not merely re-use

what is currently being used!)

Please see attached for the entire guide line for the assignment, and I also attached my classmate homework, please write a new assignment like that.

Crisis and Opportunities
Annotated Bibliography
Each person will be expected to critique the reading or readings he/she has been given, and give a brief verbal report to the class on what you found, and

how you evaluate the paper.
For your first assessment, you will then produce a short annotated bibliography to accompany a written summary of the reading they have undertaken. You

will need to include a variety of web and publication references, using the CU Harvard style required for your studies.
This is intended to start you on the right methods of research and properly referencing your work, and it gives an early indication if any problems need to

be addressed. It will
also sharpen up your skills of summarising and writing, which will provide a firm foundation for the rest of the programme.
An annotated bibliography is a list of citations to books, articles, and documents. Each citation is followed by a brief (usually no more than 150 words)

descriptive and evaluative paragraph, the annotation. The purpose of the annotation is to inform the reader of the relevance, accuracy, and quality of the

sources cited.

IT Outsourcing—Domestic vs. Global

IT Outsourcing—Domestic vs. Global

The distinction between domestic and international collaborations has blurred. A number of companies, depending on their organizational size, outsource their IT work to domestic or international companies. For example, a multibillion dollar company may outsource an IT project instead of developing it in-house. The reason could be a high profit margin due to a lower cost for the outsourced solution. Mid-market firms, which are companies with the prospects of high growth within just a few years from creation, are often faced with the question of whether to outsource or not.

This week’s Discussion is designed to help you understand the reasons mid-market firms may select domestic or international vendors for outsourcing IT projects.

Discussion Prompt:

• What considerations lead mid-market firms to domestic, rather than global, IT outsourcing? Explain.
• What features of global IT outsourcing should be beneficial to a mid-market firm? Explain.
• Do you think the concerns of a mid-market firm about global outsourcing are reasonable? If yes, how can a mid-market firm change to make global outsourcing practical? If no, how could you, as a potential global vendor, overcome the firm’s fears? Justify your viewpoint using appropriate examples.

Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses

Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses are not required to obtain continuing education for regular licensure renewal in Indiana. Policy change would be needed to require CEU’s

You are required to develop and thoroughly analyze a public policy in order to advocate for one that improves the health of the public and/or the nursing profession globally (local, state, national, or international). To do this, you will reflect on several aspects of being a policy maker within the nursing position.
• Why did you select the health or nursing profession policy issue?
• How does this issue affect nursing practice, healthcare delivery, and health outcomes for individual, families, and/or communities?
• What are the values and the ethical positions that underpin your perspectives?
• What are the criteria you will use to evaluate the success (outcomes) of your proposed policy change?
By using both a top-down and a bottom-up approach, you will analyze and bring the nursing perspective to policy makers and stakeholders. Identifying the values and ethical perspectives that underpin your position, you will develop criteria to evaluate the success of your work. This will lead to a created a policy brief that can be sent to decision makers and created a plan to work with an organization/community to promote policy change at the local level.
To guide you to your conclusion, using nursing research to support your position is vital. This should include principles of community-based participatory research (CBPR).
Requirements:
No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly.
A. Prepare your reflection essay (suggested length of no more than of 3 pages) of the values and ethics of a public policy issue by:
1. Analyze a health or nursing profession public policy issue that impacts a group of people and requires a policy change.
a. Discuss why you selected this public policy issue.
Note: If you select a local policy, be sure your discussion reflects how the policy will affect more than a single unit, department, or organization.
b. Discuss the relevance of the public policy issue to the health or the nursing profession, using two pieces of academically appropriate literature from the last five years.
c. Describe the financial impact of the public policy on an organization or on a community.
2. Analyze how your values impact your position on the public policy issue.
a. Discuss the ethical principle (e.g., autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice) or theory that underpins your perspective.

1. Identify the decision maker (name and title) who will receive the policy brief.
a. Explain why the public policy issue requires the decision maker’s attention, using relevant nursing research from the last five years to support your position.
2. Discuss the main challenges of addressing the selected public policy issue.
3. Discuss the primary options and/or interventions for the decision maker, including why they are tangible.
4. Propose a persuasive course of action for the decision maker, including ways to avoid the challenges identified in part B2.
5. Discuss how you will evaluate the success of your policy brief (top-down approach).
C. Create a plan (suggested length of no more than 3 pages) for working with an organization or a community to address the public policy issue analyzed in part A by doing:
1. Identify an organization or community that has expressed interest in your selected health or nursing profession public policy issue.

2. Discuss the challenges of each approach to implement change for the selected public policy issue.
3. Discuss which approach you would recommend as the most effective to address the issue

Sociology

In Week 1, we heard Chimamanda Adichie speak about the power of stories to combat dangerous and dehumanizing narratives. At the end of her

talk, she says, “Stories matter. Many stories matter. Stories have been used to dispossess and to malign, but stories can also be used to

empower and to humanize. Stories can break the dignity of a people, but stories can also repair that broken dignity.” As a result,

according to her, “when we reject the single story, when we realize that there is never a single story about any place, we regain a kind

of paradise.”
Storytelling has become popular again in recent years, with storytelling competitions popping up across the country. Some, like The Moth,

aim to celebrate stories from all kinds of people in our country and in our world. Your final project is in the spirit of shared

storytelling.

As we also saw in Week 4, we all have our stories to offer, and the power of the first-person narrative can be helpful in reducing

stereotypes, understanding those who differ from us, challenging our preconceived notions, and helping us connect more fully to our human

community.

Instructions:

Your final project for this class asks you to provide your own story in a creative way that’s unique to you. You have a choice in this

assignment:

You can either interview a person different from you and share your results and analysis in your presentation, or you can tell your own

story in a way that relates to the ideas and themes of this class.

Whichever option you choose, you must complete the assignment according to these parameters:

Instructions: Click Here
Create a PowerPoint presentation that tells your story or the story of the person you’ve interviewed. The PowerPoint must be 6-10 slides

in total and can include images, quotations, photographs, poems, artwork, short videos, original writing, main ideas, graphics, and/or any

other visual or textual aid that you find relevant to your life or to the life of the person you interviewed.

Using either the Speaker’s Notes section in PowerPoint or the Audio function, narrate the story you have chosen to tell. If you use the

Speaker’s Notes, please write a minimum of 1-2 paragraphs per slide; if you use the Audio function, please keep your narration to

approximately 1-2 minutes per slide. (Instructions for how to use these features in PowerPoint, as well as for where to locate free

resources for platforms that are compatible with PowerPoint, are available in the “Read Me Section” of Blackboard.)

If you choose to interview another person who’s different from you, you may include portions of that interview in your Audio narration. If

you choose the interview option, please conclude your presentation by saying what you learned from this experience: Has your perspective

been broadened? Does it remain the same? What value, if any, do you find in your interview? Why? And what new ideas do you take away from

this experience?

If you choose to offer your own story, please conclude your presentation by saying what you learned from this experience: Has your

perspective about your own life been broadened? Does it remain the same? What value, if any, do you find in telling your story? Why? And

what new ideas do you take away from this experience?

From Problem to Persuasion

 

From Problem to Persuasion
The journal activity in this course is private between you and the instructor. This week you spent some time reflecting on persuasion in your everyday

life, and you shared some potential topic ideas with your peers and instructor. But why is persuasion so important? Let’s think about that a little bit in

this journal entry.
Reviewing your brainstorming activity, select two potential problems that 1) have two logical sides to the issue (your viewpoint and an opposing

viewpoint), 2) are researchable, and 3) are related to your career or degree.
In your journal, write a fully developed paragraph for each problem (5-8 sentences each) explaining two sides to the issue (how is it argumentative?), how

you plan to approach it in your project (what side are you going to take?), and why you’re personally interested in it (of all the potential problems in

your field or degree, why did you choose this?). When writing the paragraphs, feel free to express any other thoughts or concerns you may have about the

topic choices.
After exploring the argumentativeness of your problems, take a moment to consider the bigger picture. Then, in one to two paragraphs, briefly reflect on

the importance of persuasion with the potential topic you’re most likely to write about. Why is it important that people consider your side with your

selected topic? Who is your audience, and why is it important to convince them that your view on your topic is the better (or more correct) view? Remember

to try to be specific in your entry: this information will help guide you as you work on your project in the coming weeks.
