Sociology

 

Submit a one paragraph statement presenting a topic from the United States Census (any year or more than one, as a comparative project) as the subject of your NON-REACTIVE DATA research, explaining what the topic and why it is important enough to be investigated.

This proposal is a beginning step to be involved as a cumulative piece of a research essay project conducting social science research.

Career Choice

Once you have found an opening(s) in the job that you have identified, be sure to include information about the job – for example, required

degree level (bachelor’s, master’s, doctorate, for example), prior experience, salary, instructions for applying.
Describe the agency that posted the job vacancy, including why the agency is relevant to your career plans. Also discuss how you decided upon

your particular career.

movie comparison of Safe by Todd Haynes
Based on your screening of Todd Hayne’s
[Safe], (1995), use your theoretical
understanding of Freud, Chadorow, Marx, and
Engels to provide interpretations of the film. A
number of theoretical interpretations can be
pursued and stronger work will pursue nuance
between thinkers and avoid a unitary or
singular interpretation. You are encouraged to
organize a critical interpretation that
incorporates ideas and concepts present in all
four theorists studied. Compare the insights
provided by each theorist and how those
insights inform different understandings of
Hayne’s film.

Milestone Two

 

Milestone Two
This assignment is the second milestone that you will complete for your final project. This is an important practice opportunity to draft this section now

and get instructor feedback that will help you improve upon your final submission. This is graded differently than the final project given this is a

practice opportunity. Review the rubric for full details.

 

If you have not already reviewed your feedback from your instructor on Milestone One do so now. Make any corrections or adjustments to improve upon that

section of your draft so that you are working from good premises before beginning this Milestone which depends on that information.

 

To complete this assignment, review the Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric document.
IT 210 Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: When you are in a market and researching if and how new technologies can help your business, it is important to examine what your competitors are
doing with the same technologies, and how successful they are implementing them. This assignment is the second milestone that you will complete for your
final project. In this milestone, you will address the following:
 You will begin drafting parts of your final project, focusing on your business requirements, competitors, and technology.
 This assignment is an important practice opportunity for you to create a draft, and to get feedback from your instructor to improve your final draft.
 The rubric reflects that this is a practice opportunity. You should focus on getting the necessary information into your draft. No draft is perfect.
 This milestone aligns with sections I, II, and III of your final project. Use the questions in the critical elements as a guide.
 You are free to work in the Final Project Template document or on a separate word document for your drafts.
o It is recommended you use the template to ensure you do not miss any items you need to address. The critical elements are highlighted in
yellow in the template.
 You will submit the Decision Matrix document you used to conduct your research as part of this assignment.
For guidance on completing the decision matrix, refer to these learning resources:
 Decision Matrix: What It Is and How to Use It: This article defines the decision matrix and discusses how leaders evaluate and prioritize all of their
options when considering solutions to a difficult task.
 Decision Matrix Analysis: This article explains how to use a decision matrix analysis, a useful technique for making a choice when many factors must be
balanced.
 Decision Matrix Example: Use this resource to view an example of a completed decision matrix.
Prompt: Remember that you have immersed yourself in the role of an IT professional. Imagine that you work for the small brick-and-mortar business described
in the final project case scenario. The owner of your business wants to focus on generating new revenue through e-commerce, but she knows that this change

in
operations requires the company to integrate new technology. To gain an understanding of what the business might need for technology, she has asked you to
create a business systems analysis. In this part of your drafted analysis, you will focus on solutions and recommendations based on your research for your

first
milestone.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
III. Technology Solutions: In this section, you will discuss how each of the two technologies meets the technology requirements that you identified in
section II. Use your decision matrix to guide your responses.
A. Technology One: Explain how well this technology meets the technology requirements of your business. Be sure to address which technology
requirements the technology meets, and where there are gaps.B. Technology Two: Explain how well this technology meets the technology requirements of your

business. Be sure to address which technology
requirements the technology meets, and where there are gaps.
IV. Recommendations: In this section, you will recommend the technology solution that you believe is most appropriate for your business based on how
well each technology meets your business’s technology requirements.
A. Recommend a technology solution for your business, and defend why that solution is appropriate. You could recommend only one technology,
or you could recommend any combination of the two that you investigated.
B. Explain the overall benefit of your recommended technology solution to your business. Consider the following:
i. How will it enhance efficiency?
ii. How will it position your business for future growth as you move online?
Lastly, submit the decision matrix that you used for your research.
Rubric

Opera Essay Questions

Question 1:
How have opera directors negotiated the issue of fidelity in their staging? Choose three productions of one opera and discuss how the different productions (staged or cinematic) change or complicate the opera’s meaning. Be sure to provide specific points of comparison from all three productions.

Quotation:

“Every work is a proposition, and no more than a proposition; and this is particularly true of any work conceived for the theatre, and therefore linked to the ephemeral at its most elusive. . . Is there such a thing as fidelity? And, if so, fidelity to what? To a historical truth? Or an absolute truth? . . . The important—no, the essential thing in the theatre, as in every other art form, is the actual grafting, the new creation sparked off by the proposition inherent in the origin. This grafting of one man’s idea, one man’s attitude on to another’s produces amazingly rich results.” [Pierre Boulez, “Lulu; A Short Postscript on Fidelity,” in Orientations, J-J. Nattiez, ed. and Martin Cooper, trans., 1986, p. 398]
