Thoughtful responses to classmate

Thoughtful responses to classmate 1 and classmate 2 separately.

Classmate #1-
I have not yet found a strategy that works for me besides cramming everything in last minute. I am trying to get better at this but unfortunately up until now it has been procrastinate. I could say that working in a hospital takes me away from my studies but inevitable I signed up for math and need to make more time to work through it.

Honestly just dedicating time to sit down and work uninterrupted is the most challenging problem.

Classmate #2-
I did not find a good strategy to my work schedule, personal life and school yet. My current study strategy is to actually complete my weekly content before its due. I retain most of the content from ALEKS and just apply it in the practice questions but any further study at this time is very little. I currently in the process of moving apartments and working on nightshift for 12hrs. I do most of my homework when I wake up before I go to work. I find the video helpful but the practice questions are the best source of learning. When I get stuck with a problem and trying to solve it with no assistance helps me remember. The most challenging problems would be the formula. I just need to remember it and apply it as much as I can to overcome this challenged. Overall, I feel confident with my progress at the moment and it will get easier when I finally moved and adjusted to the morning shift next week.

Hello Friend, I downloaded the term paper without checking it nicely and she wants me to work a little more on it. She needs a suitable title for the term paper. Appropriate citation when needed and she does not like copying definition.

She is looking for a quality of conclusion(s). Specifically, your ‘analysis of the analysis’. Some explanations are required however be careful not to fill the paper with definitions. She is basically looking for critical thinking ability. Would you please work on it a little more and get it done for me in the next 15-20 hours, please. Make sure to add a suitable title for the term paper. This is 60% of the total grade so basically I can end up failing the class if I do not do well in this paper. So I want a perfect term paper.

Walmart customer service

Identify and clearly state the problem (the leadership or organizational behavior issue that you have selected to research). The problem statement should be phrased in terms of a researchable question. For example, if a work group is not performing effectively, an effective problem statement might be “How can group performance be improved?”

A well formed problem statement has the following.

Focus: The problem should be well defined and specific enough for the reader to gain a clear idea of the OB topic area and the direction of your study and research.
Structure: If the problem statement is sufficiently focused, it will provide a basis for decisions about which information to include and which to exclude from the paper.
