The essay needs to be in MLA format please and the sources need to come from both of the poems. Robert Frosts poem “Birches” and T.S Elliot “The Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock”.

Instructions from my professor: This essay needs to be thesis driven and argumentative. Meaning you need to do more than just pointing out what is occurring in two texts; you need to be point out aspects in tow texts to prove a larger point of how the texts work out together.

This is the prompt:
While the speaker in Frosts “birches” lauds the idea of a boy embracing his surroundings until it “could bear no more”, the speaker in Elliot’s “The Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock” seems to shrink from nearly all of life’s opportunities.Looking at both poems, explore the idea of seizing opportunities or failing to seize those opportunities and the impact that could have on an individual.

The picture I attached is just some questions my teacher provided to help us.

In a complex, multicultural business environment, it is important that business professionals adhere to ethical standards throughout their daily activities. The goal of this course is to introduce you to concepts and guidelines for ethical courses of actions in business. In order to assess your understanding of the material and your ability to apply the required concepts, you will be asked to take on the role of the ethics director for the company in the scenario. You will be asked to design an ethics curriculum for new employees to address the rights and responsibilities of employees and the ethical relationship between employer and employee. You will also be tasked with developing an ethical dilemma for analysis, offering ethical decisions for evaluation, and examining the role of personal values and goals in the workplace.

SCENARIO
You are the ethics officer of a marketing firm. The company prides itself on only engaging in ethical business practices. In order to ensure that all of its employees understand corporate ethical policy, new employees must attend an ethics training as part of the onboarding process. Additionally, every employee must attend an annual ethics training. These ethical training programs are developed by the marketing firms ethics officer (you), the marketing firms human resources (HR) director, and an outside consulting firm.

In a joint development session, the team works through the training development materials that will be presented at this years two-day ethics training session. This year, the focus is on two primary topics: employees rights and responsibilities in the workplace and employers ethical responsibilities toward employees. In addition, hypothetical ethical scenarios are developed to evaluate the employees understanding of company ethical standards, general ethical decision-making, and desired courses of action.

REQUIREMENTS
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. An originality report is provided when you submit your task that can be used as a guide.

You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work.

Note: These should be different from the ethical business dilemma in part A3.

6. Explain why each ethical decision in part A5 presents an ethical dilemma and how an individual might justify unethical behavior (e.g., common excuses).

B. Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.

C. Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

Respondent and Operant Behaviors

January 31, 2020 1 Comment APA, Psychology and Education

In the science of behavior analysis there are two types of conditioning. Respondent behaviors can be thought of as reflexes that are elicited by stimuli. While operant behaviors can be thought of as behaviors that are maintained by environmental consequences and evoked by environmental stimuli.

Explain how the operant behavior example differs from the respondent behavior example.
