/in /by

This paper provides a structured way of using observational skills to recognize physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development of people in given stages of life. For the second observation paper students will observe a person in the adulthood stages of life. Additionally, students will think critically about two or more actions that could be taken to help that person develop in a positive manner.

Title Page (1 page)
    This page quickly provides the reader with important about the author and topic of the paper
    For more details about the format of this page, see the Step 3 documents
Body of the paper (3-4 pages)
    The page following your title page should begin with the title of your paper, centered, at the top of the page
    As you begin each section below, use level 1 headings (headings that are bolded, centered with upper and lower case (also called title case) to delineate each section
    Remember to provide in-text citations in the body of the paper whenever you quote or paraphrase information from your textbook. For details about how to do this, see the Step 3 documents.
    You are not allowed to have more than 25% of your paper consist of direct quotes. This encourages you to paraphrase the material; that is, put the information into your own words.
    Since this is an observation paper, you may write in first person when answering the personal questions/prompts below
First section: Introduction paragraph
o    In this section you introduce the reader to your topic
o    Provide the reader with a description of the person you observed or interviewed. If only observations were made, also include a brief description of the place(s) where the person was observed.
o    Why did you choose to study someone in this particular stage of life? Does it have any personal meaning to you?
o    Note that the introduction is the only section that does not need a heading. The logic behind this is that the beginning of any APA-style paper should be an introduction.

Second Section: Observations
o    Describe some of the observation that you made and how it confirms or is in disagreement with information, theories, and research presented in our textbook for the stage of life that matches the age of the person you observed. Be sure to include 2-3 examples of physical development, 2-3 examples of cognitive development, and 2-3 examples of psychosocial development in your essay. Each example shall be referenced to specific information in the textbook. Students will discuss a total of 7 examples.
Third Section: Analysis and Conclusion
o    In this section students will think critically about two or more actions that could be taken to help that person develop in a positive manner. These actions must be based on information from the textbook or another academically-based source.
o    What was the most important point you learned from this experience?
o    Conclude by briefly drawing together the main points of the paper and provide concluding remarks to the reader (Which could include the answer to the question posed in the previous bullet point).
Reference page (1 page)
This is the section that gives details about the source of your academic information, in this case your textbook. You may use additional academically-based sources in your paper, and they must also be cited and referenced. There are two reasons why psychologists include this information. First and foremost, psychologists always give credit to the work that is done by their colleagues. Another reason is that it allows the reader to find the information if they desire to read more about it.

global stratification

/in /by

Target a multinational corporation/international company and the practice of “outsourcing” to third world countries. Some examples of MNCs (multinational corporations) would be Nike, General Motors, Ford, Qwest, and Fender Music. Research its effects on local culture. Write a summary and analysis of 500-750 words and include the following:

How does global stratification impact local culture? What are the positive and negative effects?

How does global stratification impact the United States? What are the positive and negative effects?

Who is the biggest “winner” in this situation? Explain.

Assignment 1: Developing a Strategic Communication Plan

/in /by

Imagine that you are a member of a team assigned by the police chief in your hometown to revise the organizations strategic communication plan. Your assignment is to utilize strategic approach that you have learned so far to develop your citys police departments strategic communication plan.

Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:

Outline the approach that you would use to conduct research and interpret the situational analysis for your hometown.
Determine the main goals and objectives of your proposed communication plan. Predict the target group of your communication plan.
Propose the general communication strategies of your proposed plan. Provide a rationale for your response.
Develop the first four (4) main steps of your citys police departments strategic communication plan. Provide a rationale for your response.
Use at least two (2) quality academic resources as references, such as journal articles, newspapers, magazines, and publications from law enforcement associations. Note: Wikipedia, blogs, and similar websites do not qualify as quality academic resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

This course requires use of new Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The format is different than other Strayer University courses. Please take a moment to review the SWS documentation for details.
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow SWS or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the students name, the professors name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

Beginner’s Python

/in /by

Part 1:
Write a program that asks the user for a secret number between one and ten. This will become the number that the player tries to “guess”.

Ask the user player to guess a number between 1 and 10.

If the user’s guess is higher than the secret number, the program should display “Too high. Try again.”

If the user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low. Try again.”

The program should use a loop that repeats until the user correctly guesses the secret number.

Then the program should display “You Win!”

TIP: Use a while loop

Sample input/output:
Enter the secret number: 7

Guess a number between 1 and 10: 3
Too low. Try again.

Guess a number between 1 and 10: 9
Too high. Try again.

Guess a number between 1 and 10: 7
You Win!

Part 2:
Write a program that converts the common measurements below. Use functions to logically organize each conversion task below. Each of the conversion functions should return the result. The conversion functions should not print the result.

Convert feet to inches. (1 foot = 12 inches)

Convert yards to feet. (1 yards = 3 foot)

Convert miles to yards. (1 mile = 1760 yards)

Convert miles to feet. (1 mile = 5280 feet)

Print the output of the conversion to the screen.

Display a menu that asks the user to select from the above options and with the option to exit the program.

After the user selects a menu option and the output is printed, ask the user for another menu option. This process repeats until the user selects 5 to exit.
Sample input/output:
Conversion Menu:

1. Convert feet to inches
2. Convert yards to feet
3. Convert miles to yards
4. Convert miles to feet
5. Exit

Please choose a menu option: 1
Enter the number of feet: 3

There are 36 inches in 3 feet.

Please choose a menu option: 5
Goodbye.

Part 3
Create a list of something that you choose, such as a list of scores, colors, movies, general numbers, etc. Call the list you create: my_list

Iterate over the list, printing each item in the list.

Add a new item to the list.

Print the length of the list.

Delete an item from the list.

Print the length of the list again.

Sample output (the output is shown below but not all coding steps above have output):

red
blue
green

2

Part 4:
You have a list called: numbers = [74, 19, 105, 20, -2, 67, 77, 124, -45, 38]
Design a program that uses a loop to build another list named valid_numbers .

This valid_numbers list will contain some of the numbers from the numbers list shown above. If a number in the numbers list is between 0 and 100, you will add that number to the valid_numbers list.

Is the first number in the numbers list between 0 and 100? If so, add it to the valid_numbers list.
Is the second number in the numbers list between 0 and 100? If so, add it to the valid numbers list.
Keep going. The numbers list could be of any size and contain any number, so don’t assume a certain list content or length.
The program should then print the valid_numbers list.

The program should also print the total and average of the values in the valid_numbers list.

TIP: Average is the sum divided by the number of items. Iterate over the valid_numbers, sum all the numbers, and calculate the average.
TIP: You are not expected to research Python topics we haven’t discussed in class. Just use what we’ve learned in class.

You MUST use a loop. You MUST use a list. You MUST follow the directions above.
Sample output:
[74, 19, 20, 67, 77, 38]
Total: 295
Average: 49.167
