Science and Pseudoscience

/in /by

For this assignment, please write a minimum of 300 words in a discussion-style format. In other words, no intro or conclusions are required. This assignment is worth 50 Points, and will be submitted as a file attachment to Canvas. Turnitin.com will review your discussion for plagiarism as well.

Please choose any example in the news from the past six months that demonstrates some sort of rift between the U.S. Government and the scientific community. Discuss this news, in the context of the sometimes contentious relationship between scientists and government officials. What is the rift, and why do you think it exists?

(This assignment meets GELO 2: Demonstrate ways in which science influences and is influenced by complex societies, including political and moral issues)

Please read the rules and regulations below concerning this assignment.

Your discussion needs to be at least 300 words! Points will be taken off if your discussion is less than 300 words. Also, your discussion must be written by you, in your own words. If you cut and paste text from another source, and present it as your own writing, you would be plagiarizing, and that can get you kicked out of the class, and the whole CSU system!

Also, please cite your sources using any legitimate citation method you are comfortable with. Points will be taken off for lacking or incorrect citations. Please write clearly and with complete sentences and proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation, and in-text citations.

PDF submission required. Review course before you get started. 

Instructions. Respond to each of the following essay style prompts. For each question, you should include an introduction paragraph that states the purpose of the assignment and outlines the course concepts you will address in your response. Students should address each issue outlined in the question and incorporate ideas learned in class AND through the readings. In text citations should be used to indicate the resources you use to support your ideas (versus strictly providing your own opinion). Be sure to include a closing paragraph for each question. 

Note: You should organize your responses before you start writing. Read each question carefully and think about how best to answer the question based on your knowledge of the course material. You should integrate examples and connections to course material. 

Prompts.

#1) Summarize the historical view of child witnesses including how perceptions have changed over the years to result in the current perspective.  To earn full points, you must a) describe the current view of child witnesses and b) tell your reader what we learned from the mishandling of past child sexual abuse investigations. (Note: You should use 

 to supplement the course lecture to answer this question. I also expect you’ll support your response using the first two chapters of the textbook.)

#2) Explain the Courts reasoning for excluding hearsay statements by default and tell me why hearsay exceptions exist.  Next, choose one of the hearsay exceptions discussed in class and briefly explain the specific rational for this exception. Finally, describe the necessary requirements statements must meet to be considered eligible for the hearsay exception you chose. (Note: You should reference Myers, 2011 when addressing this question. I also expect you’ll support your response using the first two chapters of the textbook.)

Writing Requirements

  • Please note your paper must be written in APA style**.  A cover page and abstract are not required but you should cite sources appropriately throughout your paper to support your ideas. You must include a single, APA style reference page (you should include references used for both prompts). Points will be deducted from papers that do not include APA style in-text citations and/or a references list. I strongly encourage you to review the APA style manual if you have any questions about APA style including how to format in-text citations and references list. 
  • As noted in the — direct quotes are not allowed!
  • Writing takes effort.  I realize students will vary in their writing style and skill set.  I ask that each of you work hard to turn in written responses that reflect your best effort and shows me your true writing ability.  Points will be deducted for informal and/or poor writing.  Consider the following writing tips before you begin (and again once you are ready to submit).  
  • **Some of our readings are from an edited book. These readings will be formatted differently than an academic article or textbook written by a single author or group of authors. Please be sure to cite and reference the text readings appropriately.  

Recruitment & Selection and Performance Management

This must be of Phd/Graduate level with zero plagarism ;
Topic is Recruitment & Selection and Performance Management

Please check the guidelines
Recruitment & Selection and Performance Management
The major assignment requires applying what you have learned to your present (or past) employer. The major assignment has two major components. First, you will evaluate your organizations human resource management policy or procedures in two or three areas covered in the course (e.g., recruitment, selection, performance management, compensation, HR strategy, labor relations). This review will include what the current practice is and what could be improved (~1000 words).  In this section, it is important to identify and define important terms and concepts. It is also informative to provide relevant examples and to explicitly link how those examples apply to the concept under review. Try to make sure there is as little ambiguity as possible and that the instructor has enough information to understand the context.

In the second section, you will explain how you would revise practices or policies to address these problems by leveraging course content (~1000 words). Again, make sure to clearly define any concepts, theory, or models covered in class, and directly explain how it is relevant to your proposed changes. If you are particularly interested in a concept discussed outside of our class, make sure to provide in-text citations and references. It would be useful to provide primary sources rather than a popular press summary of this practice.

All information provided in these reports will be strictly confidential, secured and encrypted, and deleted three months after final marks are posted. If students are uncomfortable using their current or past employers, they may use another company after speaking with the instructor.
