writing a termpaper based on a question （~2000 words）MUST proficiency required, R

“The result here for the effect of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) on Salvadoran immigrants was a basic D-in-D model, while in the original study it was a basic D-in-D model with control variables. Consult the original study and report the estimated effect of TPS on employment among less-educated Salvadoran woman. How does it compare with the result in Table 3.1 of this chapter? Next, report the findings in this study for another outcome (e.g. hourly wage), and finally for another subsample (e.g. more-educated women). Modify the file script8.R, replicate the published result, and then reanalyze the data by estimating it as a basic D-in-D model. Describe the natural experiment that separates the individuals into control and treatment, and pre- and post-groups. Does the natural experiment provide a plausible way of assigning treatment as if randomly assigned by experimenters?”

Please write a 500-word essay based on the prompt below. Your essay should “critically engage with the substance of the speaker’s talk using concepts and examples from the course readings to make an argument in response to the presentation.” You need to show evidence in your essay that you have engaged with Professor Darian-Smith’s lecture, the guest’s lecture, and the reading materials. If we can’t tell in your writing that you engaged with those 3 components you will be marked down.

Prompt:

Write a brief response paper of approximately 500 words making your own argument about Professor Al-Bulushi’s reading and presentation. There are some questions to think about listed below. You don’t need to answer them all.

What topics or issues did Professor Al-Bulushi engage with? Were the issues touched on global-scale issues? Which global dimensions of the issue were discussed?

Was the presenter’s analysis of the issue a global analysis? What interdisciplinary and global perspectives, if any, were employed?

Was there more than one level involved in the analysis (transnational, regional, national or local)? If so, how did the local level figure into the presenter’s analysis? How did the issues discussed impact the local, or vice versa?

What did the reading assigned by the presenter contribute to their presentation?

TASK-1

Reflect on the assigned readings from PPT attached and then type a four page paper regarding what you thought was the most important concept(s), method(s), term(s), and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding. Define and describe what you thought was worthy of your understanding in one page, and then explain why you felt it was important, how you will use it, and/or how important it is in project planning.

Task-2 – Problem Set #11 (write atleast 4 page)

Question I – Why is cost estimation such an important component of project planning? Discuss how it links together with the Work Breakdown Structure and the project schedule.

Question II – Suppose your organization used function point analysis to estimate costs for software projects. How would the expertise level of a recently hired programmer affect your calculation of their function points on a monthly basis when compared to an older, more experienced programmer?

Part 1

When designing and testing your pendulum, make sure you note as many variables as possible and their type!!

1. Construct your simple pendulum by using a light string, a small bob (preferably something uniform and not strangely shaped), a protractor, and a measuring device for length. To measure time, use your smart phone. Practice using it.

Tips!! When releasing the bob, make sure it is almost exactly on the right angle. Also, your bob SHOULD NOT BE SPINNING on its OWN axis while the oscillations occur. If it does, this is NOT a valid experiment.

2. Enlist a family member or friend (if possible) to help with the data collection. You will need (several) trials to get an average period of a single oscillation.

3. Careful data collection must be made to get reasonable results. Your grade will be based on the quality of these results.

4. Follow the directions in the manual very carefully. Your TA may hold a class session to go over many of the particulars.

Part II

For the second activity, you will upload an MP4 file of you collecting data. You don’t have to show yourself. But, you need to show how data was collected and what with. Please describe verbally with as much detail.

Part III

Follow the directions for the discussion board at the end. Note the variables (and the type) for your classmates.

The Topic I am choosing is:

Recruiting, Managing, and retaining Millennial Employees: It is common knowledge that today’s college graduates are different from those who came before them. The distinctive traits of “Gen Y” or “Millennial” employees have been well documented. Your boss, the owner of a small but growing software development company (you can decide what type of software), thinks his managers and recruiters need a better understanding of this generation. He asks you, one of his more accomplished young employees, to review the literature on Gen Y employees and write him a report in which you describe the main traits of this segment of the workforce and recommend ways to recruit, manage, and retain them. He’ll share this report, or parts of it, with his managers, who are Gen Xers and Baby Boomers.

Problem-Solving Research Reports: The Process

The purpose of problem-solving reports is to provide decision makers with data to solve business problems (Rentz 274-275). Some problems are recurring and call for a steady flow of information; other problems might be unique and call for information on a one-time basis (Lehman), focusing on helping decision-makers figure out a course of action to take (Rentz).

Following are the steps used for finding a solution:

1. Recognize and define the problem and purpose.
2. Select the method of data/information collection.
3. Collect, organize and objectively analyze the data and document the sources.
4. Arrive at a conclusion and/or recommendation for action.

Although the direct order is usually best for an assigned problem-solving report (Rentz 252-253) it would be best if your readers arrive at the conclusion and recommendation after a logical review of your analysis; therefore, you will organize your report in the indirect order (Rentz 253-254). Presenting the supporting data before the recommendation prepares any resistant readers to accept your solution to the report problem/opportunity (Rentz 254).

Planning Phase:

• Recognize and define the problem and purpose. Use the Problem-Solving Approach for planning your communication strategy (Exhibit 1-5, page 18) to define the problem/opportunity/need related to your chosen topic. In your completed report, the problem and purpose statements will be an essential component of the report’s introduction and executive summary; they will orient your readers and let them know where your report is headed.
  • The problem statement provides a clear description of the situation that is to be solved by the research. Problem statements are generally written as declarative statements (Rentz 201).
  • The purpose statement is the goal of the study and includes the objectives you want to accomplish. Write this statement as an infinitive phrase (Rentz 201).
    • Example: The topic of your report requires you to evaluate the effectiveness of an online education for business majors. The problem statement might read “Effectiveness of online education for business majors.” Your purpose statement may be written like this: “The purpose of this report is to determine if an online education can be effective for business majors.”
  • Select the method of data/information collection. The research methods you use to collect the necessary information can be secondary, primary, or both (Chapter 8).
    • Secondary research provides information that has already been published in resources such as periodicals, brochures, books, digital publications and Web sites. Conduct this research to determine if you need to engage in primary research.
    • Primary research is new information you gather firsthand through the use of experiments, surveys, interviews, and other methods of direct observation.
  • Collect, organize and analyze the data and document the sources.
    • Analyzing your readers is an excellent planning technique. Make a list of pertinent facts. Brainstorming (generating possible solutions) will allow you to determine the factors/sub-topics you need to investigate (See Chapters 2 and 8).
    • Create an outline of these factors/sub-topics to help you remain focused on the problem and purpose.
    • A crucial part of ethical, honest research writing is documenting and referencing the secondary research sources fairly and accurately to avoid plagiarism (Bonus Chapter D). For this report, you will use MLA Style documentation of sources. Refer to the Research Report links to the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL) and the video tutorial for generating in-text citations and a Works Cited page using Microsoft Word.
  • Arrive at the conclusion and/or recommendations for action.

Writing Phase:

• Avoid perfectionism when drafting. Don’t try to make your first draft perfect as it makes drafting frustrating and slow and may make you forget important pieces.
• Just keep going. Don’t let minor problems with wording and grammar distract you from your main goal when turning your planning into a draft. Just get the ideas down on paper or into your computer. Save detailed examination and evaluation of your report for the revision stage. Set aside time for drafting, preferably at your most productive time of day…write in chunks, start with a favorite part, talk aloud to clarify your thoughts, TAKE BREAKS!

Revising Phase:

• Go back over your draft carefully-again and again. Do you say what you mean? Could someone misunderstand or take offense? Challenge yourself to look for better alternatives of structuring your sentences.
  • Make sure the organization is logical and as effective as possible.
• Focus in this stage is on your style.
  • Use the writing strategies learned in Chapter 4 to ensure you are communicating clearly, completely, efficiently, and engagingly.
  • Format headings appropriately.
  • Ensure sources are documented appropriately.
• Writing mechanics and grammar elements are the focus of this stage.
  • Use your word processing program to check for spelling errors, typography, punctuation, and grammar.
  • Get feedback from others-preferably someone proficient with writing mechanics and grammar elements, and who does not know anything about your topic to ensure objective feedback.

Below is a rough draft for this assignment but it needs to be revised to fit the assignment requirements.

Document Analysis and Historical Connections should receive the most attention!

Some sources are listed in footnotes but not all sources are credible. 3 credible sources should be implemented.

Assignment Requirements

• Thematic Title – The title should refer to the historical person or theme and not be simply titled “Document Analysis.” Examples: Spanish Perceptions of Native Culture in the 1500s or Christopher Columbus and the Encounter with the New World.
• Introduction to Topic (1-2 paragraphs) – The introductory paragraph provides the basic historical context about the person and the event or events of historical importance that person participated in. It also introduces the document to the reader, including author, nature of the document, and year of creation. Finally, the introduction should close with a thesis statement that makes an argument about the content of the document in relation to the broader historical context (i.e., a historical analysis of the document).

• Document Analysis and Historical Connections (2 pages) – The remainder of the paper must follow the thesis made in the introduction and analyze the document in relation to the historical context of the time it was written, considering issues such as the purpose and message of the document and what the document tells us about the people, society, and time in which the document was produced. How does the document illuminate our understanding of the past and demonstrate the motivations, beliefs, and practices of people in the past? This section will use and cite specific historical detail from the textbook and from the document itself as evidence to support the thesis. The analysis should not be a simple summary of the document itself; instead, you need to formulate an analysis of the relevance of the document (or the author or subject of the document) to the period of history it reflects. You must also include information from one of the sources in your supplemental bibliography.

• Supplemental Bibliography (4-6 sources) – The primary document analysis will be followed by a supplemental bibliography of the 4-6 sources that best reflect the research and writing that historians have done that examine and analyze the topic of your paper.

Essay Format

• Name, upper left hand corner
• Page numbers, upper right hand corner
• Descriptive, thematic title, centered before introduction.
• Body, double-spaced, 12-point font, 1 inch margins, 3 pages
• Please proofread your final paper for grammatical and spelling errors. Avoid the use of the first person (“I”).
• Use quotation marks and brief footnotes (see footnotes guide) throughout.
• Please Note: Cases of plagiarism will receive a zero on the assignment and no opportunity to rewrite. Use Turn-it-In as a resource to check your citations.

Supplemental Bibliography Format

• Centered heading titled “Supplemental Bibliography” at the top of a new page (of the same document. Do not upload two documents.).
• Alphabetical order by author’s last name.
• Single space entries, with a space between each entry.
• Use Chicago (CMOS) bibliographic citation format. See the Purdue Owl Guide (Links to an external site.) for details.

This week, you watched the famed “I Have a Dream” speech by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The speech inaugurated an unprecedented awakening in our nation to the ills of racism and racial injustice—speaks of truth and justice. Racial injustice and racism is wrong. Few would disagree. But how can we hold to these ethical imperatives if we don’t believe truth to be absolute and timeless. In short, if truth is relative, then does that make racism okay? The racial conversations our nation right now assumes—rightly—that there is a right and a wrong. Based on this, reflect on the following two questions:

• Can we say that “truth is relative” and that “racism is absolutely wrong” at the same time?
• Do you believe that justice is possible without the willingness to say there is truth and error?
