Taking Sides “Self-Esteem” Essay

 
Taking Sides “Self-Esteem” Essay: Your 500-750 word, four-paragraph essay should address the following questions:
1) Paragraph 1: What are the strengths and weaknesses of the article representing the “yes” side?
2) Paragraph 2: What are the strengths and weaknesses of the article representing the “no” side?
3) Paragraph 3: All in all, which author(s) do you think were the most persuasive in arguing for their position? Explain why. Note: this is the most important of the four paragraphs.
4) Paragraph 4: A foundational concept in research psychology is “correlation does not imply causation”; this is partially because even if a causal relationship does exist between two variables, it’s had to know which variable is the cause, and which variable is the effect. Do you think that high self-esteem leads to good or bad outcomes, or does success/failure influence one’s self-esteem?

– Module 4

 
Using the job you identified in Module 1, following the guidelines from the above readings, write a resume and a cover letter applying for the job. Submit your resume and cover letter. Remember and apply what you’ve learned so far on persuasion and writing letters. Using materials from Module 1 on goodwill communication and from Module 2 on persuasion will be helpful. In addition, materials from Module 3 on negative communication may come in handy to prevent negative impressions. Please avoid re-stating your resumes on your cover letters. Focus on your strengths and make your case a compelling one.

Submit your assignments by the module’s due date.

SLP Assignment Expectations
Your submission should include a well-written resume and cover letter. These documents should apply what you have learned in the course. Both are to be formally written in a professional way. Please use proper English. Your resume and letter will be graded on overall effectiveness and how much and how well you applied ideas from the readings. This includes their ability to generate goodwill and convince your prospective employer on your strengths, while preventing potential negative impressions. Achieving these would make a compelling case for your application and hence, give you an opportunity to be interviewed.No citations and formal bibliography are necessary for SLP 4.
For the SLPs, students are expected to play a role as themselves in the job market. You are to identify a job that interests you in Module 1. The SLPs will take you through the job search and application process, presenting you in different scenarios requiring you to demonstrate your ability to communicate effectively and professionally

User Personas

 
Please cover all the instructor points
This assignment continues for assignment 1,2 and 3 that did before
Please make sure there is Executive summary ( 3 lines).

Assignment instructor:
User Personas
Thus far in class we have been learning about how individuals employ technology to accomplish their goals. This invokes the question –who are the users? Many times HPTs/EPSSs are designed for a single user group when, in reality, many groups use the same system. For instance, an electronic medical record that does not take into account nurses and doctors will probably not be sustainable. Similarly, a learning management system that does not design for both teachers and students will invariable do a disservice to both user groups.
Section 1
o In this assignment, you will put your design through its first test. Specifically, you will first be asked to include a one to two paragraph description of 3 different user personas (ie – teacher, student, parents….lawyer, law clerk, administrative assistant….physician, nurse, family member). In this paragraph, you will describe the persona and why they might need the technology.
Section 2:
o In the next section, you will identify a specific task (ie – updating a student grade; updating a patient record; filing a law brief) and describe how each user personas will progress through your system. Please make sure to use different screenshots as the hypothetical user progresses through a persona.

Saving Lives in Saudi Arabia: Reforming a culture of recklessness bravado on the kingdom’s roads

 
Re-write the thesis based on my supervisors comments and the new Literature Review. The thesis is to be 10 chapters, containing about 90000 words, as outlined below;
1- Introduction about 6000-8000 words
2- Literature Review 8000-10000 words
3- Methodology 6000-8000 words
4- Theoretical Framework 8000-10000 words
5- Case Studies -Two chapters 8000-10000 words each
6- Qualitative Results 8000-10000 words
7- Quantitative Results 8000-10000 words
8- Discussion 8000-10000 words
9- Conclusion 8000-10000 words
I have attached a few files:
1- Thesis 3 files, because each file has one of my supervisor’s comments,
It’s bit messy and a bit old because it was the first I wrote. So many things changed after I rewrote my Literature Review with new question and objectives. With this you just need to except the changes then try to update the sources, statistics, etc. However we don’t need the whole thing. You need to divide it into Introduction and Theoretical Framework chapters:
• Introduction. I think it’s better to write it last and I want you to keep the Aziz family story and come back to it in different chapters.
• Theoretical Framework. Start from section 8. You need to update the theories and delete the ones that have no use in the whole thesis.
• Section 10, Research Methods has changed significantly since we (my previous supervisor and I) decided to delete the focus group and the new media platform because we had too many research tools. See the COC and the new Methodology chapter.
2- COC final document, similar to the thesis files.
3- Literature Review. Rewrite it, based on my supervisor’s comments and update the sources, statistics etc.
4- First draft of Methodology. I’ll send the updated version when I finish it. Rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments and t update the sources, statistics etc.
5- Case Studies. Two chapters devolved and devolving countries. Rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments and update the sources, statistics etc.
6- Qualitative Results. I don’t think you need to make lots of changes here. Rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments and update the sources, statistics etc. Try to fit with thesis writing style.
7- Quantitative Results. Still working on it & I’ll send it when I finish, I don’t think you need to make lots of changes here. Just rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments, and update the sources, statistics etc . Also, to fit with thesis writing style
8- Discussion – you need to write the whole chapter
9- Conclusion – you need to write the whole chapter

• After you finish the reading, I would like you to please send me a plan and outline for the whole thesis

• Since the maximum words in one order is about 55,000 and I need about 80,000-90,000 words, I am going to place two orders- the first one of about 55000 words to cover;
o Introduction
o Literature Review
o Methodology
o Theoretical Framework
o Case Studies 2 chapters

Then I’ll place another order to cover
o Results -Two chapters
o Discussion
o Conclusion
But I want the same writer to work on both orders so we’ll have one whole thesis written by one writer and in one writing style.
