Lesson 1: Discussion Questions

Dear Students,

Martin and Nakayama offer six reasons or imperatives for studying intercultural communication: economics, technology, demographics, peace, self-awareness, and ethics. Which of these six reasons or imperatives to studying intercultural communication speak to you personally? Which ones reflect the reasons you are interested in learning more about the field of Intercultural Communication? What are your personal and professional goals that this course might be able to help you accomplish? In other words, let me know what you wish to gain from this class so I can tailor our course to your interests.

Please remember that all blog entries need to have at least one scholarly, credible source cited right in your contribution to support your key claims (i.e., include proper in-text citations according to the style manual of your choice).

I am curious about your responses,

Be creative: post comments, ask/answer questions, expand threads, and, most importantly, provide creative examples that illustrate, explain, and help us understand one or more of the concepts discussed in the readings.
Please note: At least one scholarly, credible source needs to be referred to and cited directly in the text of each blog entry. If this key requirement is not met, 30% (i.e., 9 points out of 30) will have to be deducted.

Hi writer,

Please use simple words to write this assignment. This is my second year in college, I’m an international student. Thank you.

There is one required text.

Running the simulation involves the following steps:
•Review the Simulation Summary, Your Role, and How to Play sections under the Prepare tab.
•Go to the Analyze tab to run the simulation.
•Submit your weekly order in the Enter Order field; at least 20 rounds are necessary to get a good feel for the problems involved.
•When finished, review your performance under the Dashboard Overview, Inventory and Shipments, Orders and Backlog, and Cost Detail tabs.

It sounds easy, right? Try it and see how good you are at getting root beer to your customers while keeping your inventory and costs low. See

if you can control the bullwhip oscillations of stock-outs followed by over-supply.

To run the simulation several times, you will need log out and start again. The log out command is on the bottom left side of the page.

Spend a maximum of 30 minutes working with the game. Then think about it in conjunction with this module’s readings for perhaps another 15-20

minutes.

address the following questions:
1.What did you do in the simulation? What activities did you engage in? What did you learn about what’s going on?
2.What have you learned about supply chain management from your participation in this simulation?

you will be personally experiencing the importance of supply chain management (SCM) through a simulation exercise. Your job is to fully

understand the components of SCM and how they are broken down into parts. SCM includes the customer as the input and output in the chain

through planning, purchasing, inventory, production, and transportation. SCM ensures that products and services are delivered efficiently using

IT and related applications such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), Oracle, and SAP. More specific applications include customer relation

analysis (CRA), material resource planning (MRP), and inbound and outbound logistic tracking systems, among others. These applications

integrate to the full value chain and interface with customers and suppliers via the Internet and mobile technology.

The challenge of SCM is coordination. Suppliers, manufacturers, sales people, and customers have their own, often incomplete, understanding of

what real demand is. Each group has control over only a part of the supply chain, but each group can influence the entire chain by ordering too

much or too little. Furthermore, each group is influenced by decisions that others are making. This lack of coordination coupled with the

ability to influence while being influenced by others leads to what Stanford’s Hau Lee refers to as the Bullwhip Effect. Decisions made by

groups along the supply chain may actually worsen shortages or overstocks. The bullwhip effect is illustrated by a story Lee tells about how

Volvo found itself with extra inventories of green cars. To get them off the dealers’ lots, Volvo’s sales department offered special deals, so

demand for green cars increased. Production, unaware of the promotion, saw the increase in sales and ramped up production of green cars.

Coordination is not just about communication. Even in supply chains where communication is perfect, manufacturing and procurement delays can

wreak havoc. While customers are ordering, backlogs can build, and it is easy to confuse backlogged orders with increases in demand.

A Just Society

Over the course of the semester we are given serious consideration to various ethical theories and how they help us to understand some ethical

issues we encounter in our daily lives. Thinking more broadly, a well-considered theoretical basis is essential for a moral society, something we

call the Just Society. The concept of a Just Society is perhaps simple in conceptualization: how should people behave in order for a given society

to be considered as fair as possible to all members of that society? In order for us to determine proper behavior, we of course must have some way

to measure that behavior, and that ‘some way’ is one of the ethical theories we’ve taken
up this semester. So for the final essay I’d like you to discuss what the Just Society appears like to you. To explain and support your vision you

should deal, in depth, with the following questions: how shall people
treat each other? How shall we judge proper (i.e. ethical) behavior? What specific issue or two can you provide to very specifically illustrate how

humans will behave ethically? The last question allows you opportunity to (i.e. you must) bring in at least one, though two is better and more is

yet better still,, applied topics to your essay. Finally, what behavioral standard would illustrate an unjust society? Your essay should be at least

six full pages in length, double-spaced, 12-point font and 1-inch
margins. You must provide citations, however a works cited page is not necessary if you are only using material from the text. However, if you use

other sources, you must provide a works cited page. Using outside sources is not a requirement, however; you can certainly write an
excellent paper relying only upon “Reason & Insight” by Timothy Shanahan and Robin Wang.

Week 3-Assignment
Reading: Read the assignment material for the week. This week, the reading assignment is:
From the ‘Resources’ section, read Perry & Quarantelli (eds.) Parts II and III–Chapters 10 – 20.
Assignment: (1000 word paper) Provide an explanation of the important concepts that you research. Assume that you are writing for an uninformed reader that knows nothing about the topic and has not read what you read. (1) Provide an introduction that gives the background, purpose, and overview of the topic that you are reviewing, so the reader will understand what they’re reading and why. (2) Provide a body with a discussion of the topics organized with headings. (3). Provide a conclusion wrapping up the paper. See the templates in the Resources section. These are the requirements for inclusion in this week’s discussion:
– What is the relationship between disaster and stress? What is the difference between individual and collective stress and why is it important?
– What are the theses that Stallings puts forth in his work? How do the various respondents add and detract from his work? Which criticisms are valid and which not?
– Provide a summary of the discussions throughout the readings.
– How does this work inform the future research that is still required? What would be the value of that research?
DO NOT list out the topics or questions and answer them. They are not meant to be all-inclusive, and your reader will not understand the context. Rather, give an overview of the author’s entire body of work, using the topics as guidelines. Ensure that you meet or exceed the 1000-word target, and that your paper meets APA presentation requirements. Save the Microsoft Word document as [yourlastnameWkX] (e.g. SmithWk3) and upload the paper to the assignment. Scroll down and hit ‘submit’.
Rubric: Papers will be graded using the APUS graduate rubric, with attention paid to comprehension, depth of knowledge, and clear expression of ideas and arguments. Additionally, adherence to APA conventions will be required.
Objectives: This assignment supports course objectives: CO-2; CO-3; CO-4.
