Best And Worst Instructions

In about 2 d/s typed or written pages each, I would like you to write about the worst and best instructions (or directions) you’ve ever received with something you bought. In one document, write about the worst instructions. In another document, write about the best instructions—briefly explain what you liked/disliked. In my own case, the worst instructions I have ever received were for a portable gas grill. By far, the best were for a bookcase from Ikea.  The instructions can be ones you used for assembling furniture, a computer, an appliance etc. It can even be for something like coloring your hair, doing some arts and crafts project.   

  

Visuals include:
Any visuals or graphics used to clarify the instructions. You need to evaluate how effective or useful they are. 

Level of detail:
How descriptive or detailed they instructions are. Conversely, this could be poorly detailed or developed. 

 

Corporate and Organizational Ethics

The Magazine of Corporate Responsibility (http://business-ethics.com/) is an online periodical published quarterly since 1987 to promote ethical business practices among professionals.

·  Start with an article published in the magazine and use it as a topic for a research paper.

In previous modules, you have been provided with templates that have specific and ordered subject headings. This time the organization of the submission is up to you, and only a basic template is provided. After three modules of work, you are prepared and ready for the challenge. Rise to the occasion and create a flowing and research-forward case that highlights your critical thinking and style.

Relying on a single resource is not adequate at this level of study. As a scholar and professional, you have a responsibility to support research with appropriate attribution. Every new point requires support. Today’s leaders are required to have a broad knowledge base that they continue to develop throughout their careers and lives.

 

Application Process Paper

Write a 350- to 700-word paper detailing sources you would use if applying for a position detailed in any of the criminal justice field job announcements you chose. Include steps you would take in preparation for each phase of the typical employment process based on the design of your flowchart. Include the following in your paper: (Probation Officer or Social Worker)

· Detail the three most important attributes of a successful candidate to a mock interviewer. 

· Explain the process strategy for meeting the correctional career challenges based on the job announcements you chose.  

· Prepare at least three questions you would ask a mock hypothetical interviewer based on the job announcements you chose. 

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.

Attach a copy of both announcements or send the link for both job announcements along with your Application Process Flowchart and Application Process Paper.
