One of our topics this week was social psychology, the study of human behavior in groups.
As youll recall from your reading, individuals occupy social roles within the groups they belong to, and these roles affect how they behave toward other members of the group. One of the more common problems with group membership is role conflict. Humans generally belong to more than one group, and sometimes this leads to a difficult situation. If your role in school is to be a student, and your family role is to be a parent, what do you do when your child has chicken pox during your final exams?
Other important aspects of group membership include group structure and group cohesiveness. As you examine your own social groups, please consider how the groups are structured and how cohesive they are, compared to each other. For example, a marching band is a group that most likely has a well-defined structure and a great deal of cohesiveness. But friends who get together for a game of pick-up basketball on Sundays will be loosely structured, and members may come and go.
Groups often share accepted standards of behavior, known as norms. The marching bands norm for dress would be a uniform that matches everyone elses, while the pick-up basketball players can express their own taste in workout gear.
Instructions:
Think about the social groups in your own life and how you interact with the other members of those groups. Analyze your own role in at least two social groups you belong to.
Your paper should describe each social group, explain how theyre structured and how cohesive they are, and it should also describe your personal experience with each specific social role you play. Describe your role within each group, and discuss whether youve experienced any role conflicts.
Finally, make sure to identify several norms for behavior in each group.
Requirements:
3-4 double-spaced pages (not including the cover or references pages), 12 point font, and APA format.
References must be cited appropriately.

see attached file for the instruction
1 page transcription for how to start the meeting
1 page for all the meeting attendees on how decision making will be made.
1 page for Create a session agenda for this meeting (it cannot be longer than 90-minutes).
After studying the Week 1 Lecture, prepare the following activities in your own words:
1. Do the exercise “Be the Manager” on page 33 (6ed), or page 29 (9e in PDF).
2. As you know, there are relevant “2019 top Trends in Management”. There is a trend related to “Analytics”, and it is a good time to check whether your company is a “potential candidate” for developing an “Analytics Culture.” Follow the instructions below:
1. Review the material posted in Course Document Link under the “Analytics” item.
2. Open the Analytics Survey posted in the Analytics item (Course document link), assess your company through the analytics components, and then analyze the results.
3. List the weaknesses and strengths found in your company given by the analytics components covered by the survey.
4. Select one weakness that impedes to embrace the “Analytics” by your company and prepare an implementation plan to eliminate that weakness and then move on analytic philosophy. In order to be consistent with the implementation plan content, there are some examples of this kind of plan in the Course Document Link under the Implementation plan item. Read them and pick the one that satisfies you the most, and then prepare the exercise based on that one.
3. After studying chapter 9, do the exercise “Building Management Skills” on page 309 (page 273 of 9ed. PDF). Look at Figure 9.2. Based on the outcomes of this exercise, identify one weakness (or problem) after applying the Value Chain Analysis, and prepare an implementation plan to solve the problem.
This exercise is an oral assignment. The oral component is a professional presentation by using PowerPoint based on the material recommended by the instructor (see Course document link). It is recommended one slide per question/answer, and 10 minutes length. Be creative and use the resources you consider to enhance your presentation. (Attached to find the rubrics to be used to assess your professional skills in oral presentations).
4. Find a current and relevant article to you from any business magazine (use ceoexpress.com for this exercise) and write a 300-words comment about its content. Post the comment in Week 1 discussion board link. Read discussion question instructions and classmates’ contributions. Before posting, please, read “Weekly discussion instructions” and “Discussion board grading policy” in the Syllabus Tap.
Expected Outcome:
Submit the written assignment based on exercises 1, and 2. The written assignment must be sent through the Turnitin link, shown below, in one document. Do not include the questions in your submission; only include your answers to avoid having a high percentage of similarity with external sources. Please, check carefully the originality of your submission. It must be 100% original.
Submit the PowerPoint presentation for exercise 3 through the “course message center” as an attached document. If you cannot attend the live session, videotape your oral presentation, and submit it through the “course message” link as an attached document. After the class, the videotaped presentations will be posted in course documents for student review and feedback. This will count as class participation.

Now you are actually talking about what you are proposing. Again, be sure that this
follows naturally from the Introduction in which you should have set up and highlighted some
critical issue that needs to be resolved. What you should do now is to tell the reader how you
would resolve this issue. The Method section should describe the proposed method for the
experiment, including who the participants will be (ages and where they will be recruited from),
what equipment will be used, and the procedure that will be followed. You should specify the
variables (independent and dependent) that will be used in the experiment. You do not have to
format this section with separate subject, apparatus and procedure sections, but having that in
mind can help to guide your thinking and writing. A clearly structured Method section is very
important.
These questions can be formulated while reading assigned texts before lecture, during lecture about the lecture itself, during the viewing of the recorded lecture, or after viewing the recorded lecture.Below youll find different options for formulating your one page word question/reflection:1)Address acitation from one of the theoretical texts weve read for the week, and a short (2-3 sentence) description of what you find compelling, interesting, confusing, challenging, confounding, about the passage.2)Address a theoretical concept presented in the weeks lecture presentation that you find compelling, interesting, confusing, challenging, confounding, and would like to introduce for discussion in class. This scene may have some relationship to the citation of the theoretical text youve provided. 3)An aesthetic technique that you saw in an artwork or exhibition that was covered in thelecturepresentation. Pick one you think has engaged directly with a theoreticalconcept weve discussed or has been discussed in one of our readings/lectures. Briefly describe the artwork or exhibitions technique and also what kind of relation it might have to the theoretical text we encountered that week. 4)These should not be simple yes or no question or something that can easily be looked up on Wikipedia. Rather, your one page-word response should reflect your active engagement with the reading, lecture or case study artwork/exhibition. These questions are meant to help you understand concepts in the text that you find difficult, please use them to you advantage. Consider the following questions to guide your work a.What is the text, lecture or artworks main idea?b.What does it mean?c.Why does it matter?5)As you proceed with these assignments over the course of the quarter, you may compare and contrast prior theories or artworks covered in one lecture with another. This will prepare you for the final paper assignment
