Assignment 4: Avoiding Wrongful Employee TerminationsDue Week 10 and worth 200 points To be wrongfully terminated is to be fired for an illegal reason, which may involve violation of federal anti-discrimination laws or a contractual breach. The legal standards governing termination differ substantially depending on whether private-sector and nonunion employees or public-sector and unionized employees are being considered. As the company HR leader, you are accountable to the organization to ensure that all employee terminations are initiated and completed while maintaining strict adherence to current employment laws and EEOC guidelines. Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you: Address your understanding of the term constructive discharge (What is it?). Then, identify factors courts might focus on to determine if a claim of constructive discharge exists. How might the organization avoid claims of constructive discharge? HINT: https://employment.findlaw.com/losing-a-job/constructive-dismissal-and-wrongful-termination.html Discuss the differences between “pure employment at-will” and “employment at-will with exceptions.” Do you believe employment at-will is fair? If not, what is an alternative? Briefly describe what is the Montana Wrongful Discharge from Employment Act (WDEA). What do you see as benefits of this act to employees? Employers? Identify and discuss a minimum of three (3) actions organizations may want to consider as they seek to handle employee terminations legally.

Essay #3 Annotated BibliographyAnswers 1Bids 32Other questions 10

Assignment DescriptionFor this project, you will create an annotated bibliography for five sources that you will use in your final research paper. For each source, you will write a summary of the source (the annotated part) followed by the correct MLA citation (the bibliography part). You will analyze the articles for their argument, tone, audience, and purpose, and then write a summary of each article using the templates provided. A summary does not include direct quotes from the original article. In other words, you will rewrite the articles in your own words, including only the main ideas/arguments. Do not plagiarize or borrow someone else’s summary. Alphabetize the sources according to the author’s last name or the first significant word in the title if there is no author. Your annotated bibliography needs to have a hanging indent. There is an example on eCampus. The annotated format includes four sentences. Each sentence contains specific information.Sentence 1: The name and title of the author(s) followed by a properly punctuated title of the work and the publication date. A signal verb (e.g. asserts, argues, claims, illuminates, emphasizes) introduces a “that” clause containing the major thesis or claim of the workSentence 2: An explanation of the kind(s) of reasons, evidence, or support the writer uses to develop his or her thesisSentence 3: A statement of the writer’s purpose followed by an “in order to” phrase describing the author’s desired effect or result for his or her readerSentence 4: A description of the writer’s intended audience (specific group of readers) and an indication of the tone of voice used in the writing (e.g. academic, humorous, ironic, conversational, sarcastic, urgent, straightforward, informative, etc.)EXAMPLES:Rifkin, Jeremy. “A Change of Heart about Animals.” Los Angeles Times, 1 Sept. 2003, http://articles.latimes.com/2003/sep/01/opinion/oe-rifkin1 Writer and Economist, Jeremy Rifkin in his editorial column, “A Change of Heart about Animals,” published on September 1, 2003, addresses the topic of animal rights and behavior and argues that animals should be treated and viewed with more respect since each individual animal is so closely related to us humans. He constructs this claim by introducing the idea that animals feel the same feelings that humans feel, presenting evidence that proves the animals’ behavior to be like humans, then questioning our perceptions of animal, and challenging his readers to expand our perception and empathy to our fellow creatures. Rifkin’s purpose is to illustrate the way animal behavior is similar to human behavior in order to persuade his audience to reevaluate their perception of animals and more than that, treat them better. He adopts a persuasive, emotional, and unbiased tone for his audience, the readers of the Los Angeles Times and others interested in the topic of human-like animal behavior.Juliano, Stephanie. “Superheroes, Bandits, and Cyber-Nerds: Exploring the History and Contemporary Development of the Vigilante.” Journal of International Commercial Law & Technology, vol. 7, no. 1, 2012, pp. 44-64, Academic Search Complete, http://dcccd.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=79267681&site=ehost-live. In the article “Superheroes, Bandits, and Cyber-nerds: Exploring the History and Contemporary Development of the Vigilante” (2012) author Stephanie Juliano of Touro Law School addresses the topic of vigilantes and argues that though they are illegal for good reason, vigilantes do provide benefits, specifically in corrupt governments and societies. She supports her claim by comparing vigilantes to activist groups, such as New York’s ‘Guardian Angels,’ and then draws connections between vigilantes and revolutionaries, noting the main difference is only the scale on which they work. Juliano appears to write in hopes of clarifying what actions create a vigilante in order to dissipate any common misconceptions of the term. Because of the author’s straightforward tone and reference towards several court cases and legal dictionaries, it is clear she writes for an audience educated in American law.Here are three templates you can refer to when writing your summaries. You will keep the bolded words and fill in the blanks with content from your articles. Choose the appropriate template according to the text and/or author you are summarizing. Additionally, please use appropriate grammatical structure when forming sentences. Use the templates as a guide; mix and match the sentences to fit your purpose. You may even choose different signal verbs; however, do not stray from the basic four-sentence structure. You should be able to summarize each article within this basic structure. These four sentences become the short paragraphs of summary for your annotated bibliographies.Template One: (Author’s credentials) (author’s first and last name)’s (type of text), (“Title of Text”), published in (date/publishing info), addresses the topic of (topic of text) and argues that (argument). S/he supports this claim by _________________, then _________________, and finally _________________. (Author’s last name)’s purpose is to (author’s purpose in writing) in order to (change in reader/society the author wants to achieve). S/he adopts a(n) ___________ tone for his/her audience, the readers of (name of publication) and others interested in the topic of _____________________.Template Two:  In the (type of text), (“Title of Text” (year)), author (author’s first and last name), (author’s credentials), asserts that (argument) and suggests (explanation of sub-claims or resolutions). S/he backs up this claim by doing the following: first, s/he _______________; next, s/he ________________; finally, s/he ________________. (Author’s last name) appears to write in hopes of (author’s purpose in writing) in order to (change in reader/society the author wants to achieve). Because of the author’s _____________ tone, it is clear that s/he writes for a ____________ and ______________ audience.Template Three: In his/her (type of text) (“Title of Text” (year)), (author’s credentials) (author’s first and last name) asserts that (argument) by addressing _______________, _________________, and ________________. By supplying the reader with information about _________________ and _____________, (author’s last name) builds his/her claims about ___________________. (Author’s last name) wishes to convey to the readers the importance of (author’s purpose in writing) in order to (change in reader/society the author wants to achieve). The author’s audience consists of those interested in ______________ as is evident through his/her reference to ______________ and ______________; s/he addresses readers with a tone that is ______________ and _____________.Minimum RequirementsLength: 150-200 words per entry (four sentences) Style: Essay needs to conform to MLA standards, including double spacing in Times New Roman font, and must include a Works Cited entry following each source. Sources: Five sources minimum: three peer reviewed academic articles from a database and two credible sources of your choice (newspapers, organizations, government websites, books, etc.). One of your sources must be a counterargument of your view.IF YOU DO NOT MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS, YOU CANNOT EARN HIGHER THAN A 60%.Due Dates/Points PossibleWorth: 100 points; 10% of your total gradePeer Review: Post to the Group Discussion Board, see syllabus for dateFinal Draft: Safe Assign on eCampus, see syllabus for datePurpose and Learning ObjectivesThe purpose of this assignment is to prepare you for the final argument research paper. You will integrate all five of these sources in your final argument research paper and include their Works Cited entries on your final essay.Your annotated bibliography will demonstrate the following learning objectives: Demonstrate the ability to use the library databases Research and evaluate relevant academic sources Research and evaluate popular sources for credibility and relevance Summarize and paraphrase correctly Apply the standards of MLA to avoid plagiarism Create documents in MLA style Create an annotated bibliography Apply formal, academic English in writingProcess of Completion Using your working thesis and research questions as a guide, begin research by doing a Google Scholar search over your topic. Instead of choosing any website as a source, look for articles on credible sites like newspapers or government sites. See the PPT “Source Credibility” for more help with deciding whether a website is credible. After you have found a few credible web sources, begin research using the Richland library databases. Academic Search Complete is the best database to begin your research. Find a minimum of THREE academic sources. See the PPT “Using the Richland Library” on eCampus for more help. Before you finish researching, be sure you have at least ONE source that you disagree with in order to include a counterargument in your essay. In your Writer’s Notebook, annotate the five sources you want to use in your essay. Take careful notes over the author’s claim and purpose. Respond in your notebook. Do you agree, disagree, or have mixed feelings? Using the templates above, write your summaries in FOUR sentences ONLY. Each source can be summarized in four sentences. Next, create the Works Cited entries for your summaries. Academic Search Complete has the MLA citation listed or you can use Noodle Tools or Easybib to help with citation. See the PPT “MLA Works Cited” or visit Purdue OWL for more help. Put your bibliography away for twenty-four hours before revising it for grammar and punctuation mistakes. Visit the English Corner for more help with revision. Come to all peer reviews and turn in all drafts. Review carefully your peers’ comments and then mine. Edit and revise your essays based on the feedback you receive. Review your Safe Assign report for plagiarism BEFORE turning in your final draft! Reread your essay one last time and make any final edits or changes before turning in your final!PlagiarismPlagiarism will not be tolerated. Plagiarism includes failing to cite a direct quote with quotation marks and an in-text citation, borrowing someone else’s work without a correct citation, bad paraphrasing (Safe Assign will not identify a good or fair paraphrase), purchasing a paper, having someone else write your essay, or turning in the same paper to two different classes. Any paper with plagiarism, even accidental (I forgot to cite that!), will receive a zero as a final grade. The best way to avoid plagiarism is to cite correctly.

Compare your analysis by your findings from the literature review. •Do not use the “top 10 imported commodities” in the International Trade Statistics Yearbook 2017 (usually table 4 at the end  of  the  country-by-country  profiles),  as  some  countries  may  still  import  products  with  high  rate  of  comparative  advantages due to other reasons.•You will have to provide table(s) and/or chart(s) that show your summary of the countries you have selected.

An abstract is optional.•In  your  writing,  presume  that  the  reader  never  took  an  economics  class.  When  talking  about  certain  definition  or  topic,  assume the reader have never learned about it before, therefore, do not forget to define your terms, explain them (at least briefly), and never assume that the reader knows! Required Format:•Strictly use the same format of one of your reviewed studies.Important Hints:1.Read online about how to conduct an ‘argumentative essay.’ 2.Every research has a research problem, so start by identifying the research problem. The research problem is telling the reader why this essay is important to read. You can use recent trends in trade to justify the research problem, or maybe a recent change in global competitiveness that has major impacts on the economies you are analyzing, in which your essay is imposing important analysis and significant findings. In the very beginning of your introduction, try to get the reader attentive to your research problem.3.You  can  choose  your  own  essay’s  title  that  relates  to  the  rule  of  socio-economic  measures  in  global  competitiveness,  or  simply  use  the  title  of  the  project  as  your  essay’s  title.  The  tile  of  the  project  is  ‘Comparative Advantages, Poverty, and Trade: A Socio-Economic Argumentative Essay.’4.’ If using your own topic, make your topic as focused as possible, and avoid using broad or far-reaching topics.5.You need to look at many published academic  articles,  not  articles  published  in  journals  like  The  New  York  Times,  or  similar  journals.  Then  review  the  articles  that  are  as  close  to  your  topic  as  it  can  get.  To  find  the  published academic articles, use academic search engines such as:https://scholar.google.com/https://www.jstor.org/6.Use the structure of the citation exactly matching the paper or journal you chosen to follow its format. For example, either “Sam  et  al.,  2000”  or  “Sam,  David,  and  Tom,  2000”,  or  any  other  known  academic  citation  used in social sciences.7.Do not use strong claims without proper citation, even if it makes a lot of logic to you.8.Do  not  claim  accuracy  of  a  statement  or  an  idea  simply  because  it  was  mentioned,  or  even  proven,  by  the  literature. 9.Do  not  forget  about  the  rules  of  assumptions,  where  you  can  observe  concepts  varying  when  changing  the  model assumptions.10.Do not ever forget to quote in bold text when you retype a statement from of a reference. For example; Sam et  el.,  2000  define  this  word  as  “social  and  behavioral  aspect  of  any  topic.”  As  you  see,  the  statement  is  quoted in bold text.11.You have to use the rule of microeconomics by not analyzing the total trade of all goods and services between the  economies,  you  will  have  to  select  few  products  or  specific  type  of  products.  For  example,  the  international market for ice cream, or international market frozen desserts in general.12.You do not have to use the most recent data or articles, but try to relate your work to more recent data (such as academic articles published after the year 2012). 13.Make sure to use clear wordings, avoid syntax errors, and use correct punctuations.14.Do not retype same statement over and over again in different structures. 15.Revise  your  work  more  than  one  time,  as  many  times  as  possible.  You  will  always  see  something  to  adjust  every time you revise your work. This is a continuous process in practical research, and the more revising you do, the better the work you will produced. 16.Draw an outline in the beginning, and end up with a draft before typing the project.17.Use prime times of the day to work in your essay.18.It is good to have subtitles in your essay.  19.While  working  on  the  project,  avoid  printing/considering  the  whole  report.  Only  print/consider  required  pages. For example, only print the individual front profile pages for the selected countries (one front-page for each country).20.Read the grading rubrics to know how your project will be evaluated. Maximum points for the project equal 100 points.Specific Objective(s):•Read online about how to conduct an ‘argumentative essay.’•Analyze a narrowed topic related to ‘the rule of socio-economic measures in international trade.’•Collect references of at least three published academic studies on the topic.•Identify the main argument(s) of the essay.•Discuss whether the argument(s) being the same and/or different among the collected literature.•Recognize the rule of assumptions in modeling and argumentative perceptions.•Discuss how the argument(s) may change under different assumptions/environments.•Use the learning form Chapters 2 and 15 to analyze comparative advantages and international trade.Foundational Component Area (FCA): •’Social & Behavioral Sciences’ – ECON 2302 – MicroeconomicsCore Objective(s):•Critical Thinking (CTH) – This is a sub-objective of the Intellectual and Practical Objective – Critical thinking is a habit of mind characterized by the comprehensive exploration of issues, ideas, artifacts, and events before accepting or formulating an opinion or conclusion.Definition Source: https://www.aacu.org/value/rubrics/critical-thinking•Written  Communication (WRC) –  This  is  a  sub-objective  of  the  Intellectual  and  Practical  Objective  –  Written communication is the development and expression of ideas in writing.
