ECO 201

Gas prices fluctuate often and in both directions. In your initial post, respond to the following:

How responsive do you think consumers will be to the price change when these fluctuations occur due to changes in supply? Why? Use the various determinants of elasticity to explain your answer.

How does the price elasticity of demand for gasoline impact the effectiveness of taxes on gasoline aimed at correcting a negative externality?

Consider incorporating the supply-and-demand model to demonstrate the elasticity of demand for gas and to show the effects of tax on the market for gas.

PSY 216

Discuss whether Jung’s concepts of word association, symptom analysis, and dream analysis are well supported by research. Please provide an interesting example of each concept. Have you ever (perhaps unknowingly) used one of these concepts yourself?

Topic:PHYSICIAN-ASSISTED SUICIDE

 

In your paper,

• Present a revised argument in standard form, with each premise and the conclusion on a separate line.
• Present a counterargument in standard form, with each premise and the conclusion on a separate line.
• Provide support for each premise of your counterargument. Clarify the meaning of the premise and supporting evidence for the premise.
  • Pay special attention to those premises that could be seen as controversial. Evidence may include academic research sources, supporting arguments, or other ways of demonstrating the truth of the premise (for more ideas about how to support the truth of premises take a look at the instructor guidance for this week). This section should include at least one scholarly source.
• Explain how the conclusion of the counterargument follows from its premises. [One paragraph]
• Discuss the primary points of disagreement between sincere and intelligent proponents of both sides. [One to two paragraphs]
  • For example, you might list any premises or background assumptions on which you think such proponents would disagree and briefly state what you see as the source of the disagreement, you could give a brief explanation of any reasoning that you think each side would find objectionable, or you could do a combination of these.
• Present the best objection to your original argument. Clearly indicate what part of the argument your objection is aimed at, and provide a paragraph of supporting evidence for the objection. Reference at least one scholarly research source. [One to two paragraphs]

Resource: Job Description and Recruiting Strategies Worksheet

Conduct an interview with someone who has a job position that is different from your own.

Identify the duties associated with his or her position, as well as any skills and abilities necessary for the position.

Complete the worksheet.

Answer each question in paragraph format.

The Core Assessment Paper for LE300R must apply the ethical and psychological theories of humor learned in this course in an analytical examination and interdisciplinary discussion of one or more examples of humor in the today’s culture. The paper should synthesize perspectives from multiple disciplines and present an analytical viewpoint of the example(s) being used for the paper. The paper must:

• Identify interdisciplinary uses of humor in your professional life or future career goals, and formulate a plan for responsible and ethical applications of and responses to humor in your career setting.
• Create and synthesize a concept for globally responsible values and attitudes toward humor in social media, Pop Culture (television and movies) or other venues that have diverse audience demographics.

The Core Assessment is to be an academic paper demonstrating sophisticated, integrative and interdisciplinary learning about the theories, ethics and psychology of humor in real-world environments.  Although the paper may briefly reference comedic cinema, humorous books, comedic television programs or other Pop Culture vehicles, the paper is not to be a ‘movie review’ or ‘summary’ of an entertainment vehicle.

How many references will I need to use?

• You will need at least FIVE outside references, in addition to the required textbooks for this course.  Be sure to have at least five FULL pages of writing in addition to your reference page.

What type of references can we use?

• You MUST use both course textbooks in your final paper as reference sources.
• For the other sources (at least five) you should primarily use academic journals (we have a wealth of them in our online library).  Do NOT use Wikipedia, Yahoo Answers, or other non-academic sources.
• One way to start researching your paper is to find articles in academic journals about the ethics, psychology, social interactions and other elements in your career field, and apply the theories of humor from our course to the information in these studies.

What writing style should we use?

• Use the APA style manual for in-text citations as well as your reference page.  If you have questions, send me an email or post the question to this thread.

Conduct a technology analysis of your fictitious organization.

What kinds of good or services does your organization produce? Are input, conversion, or output activities the source of greatest uncertainty for your organization?
What role does technology in the form of knowledge play in the production of the organization’s goods or services?
What role does materials technology play in the production of the organization’s goods and services?
What is the organizations level of technical complexity? Does the organization use a small-batch, mass production, or continuous-process technology?
Use the concepts of task variability and task analyzability to describe the complexity of your organization’s activities. Which of the four types of technology identified by Perrow does your organization use?
What forms of task interdependence between people and between departments characterize your organization’s work process? Which of the three types of technology identified by Thompson does your organization use?
The analysis you have done so far might lead you to expect your company to operate with a particular kind of structure. What kind? To what extent does your organization’s structure seem to fit with the characteristics of the organization’s technology? For example, is the structure organic or mechanistic?
Do you think your organization is operating its technology effectively? Do you see any ways in which it could improve its technical efficiency, innovativeness, or ability to respond to customers?
