1. For this assignment, you are to visit a local toy store, or the toy section in a department store, and analyze the toys in terms of gender socialization.
2. Choose any toy store or other store large enough to have its own toy section and approach it with open eyes and a clean slate.
3. Take some notes on what you see, paying attention to the toys and how they are marketed.
4. The paper should be a minimum of 750 words of text with a word count listed.
Points will be deducted for papers that are sloppily written and for those that are less than the required length.
5. Look for the following for your write-up:
a. What are the differences between boys toys and girls toys?
b. How are they marketed/packaged?
c. From your own perspective, what lessons are boys and girls learning from these toys and their marketing?
d. Use information from the chapter material on Socialization (chapter 4) and tie in your observations to the material presented in the chapter. Make the chapter material explicit.
Within your paper, however, it is important to look at both (or all) sides of an issue. Therefore, I would like you to adhere to the following guidelines in your paper.
First, provide an introduction to your topic. Within this introduction, provide a general back-ground to your topic. (To stay with the abortion example, give me a background to the pro-life movement). Also, the introduction is the ideal place to explain the importance of your topic as well as how your topic relates to ethics.
Second, provide the case for the particular topic you are describing. If you are writing a paper on the pro-life movement, provide the reasons for supporting this cause. Be sure to back these reasons up with research (articles).
Third, provide evidence against the situation you are writing about. If you choose to write about the pro-life movement, then you would use this section to offer evidence which supports the pro-choice movement. In the second and third sections, you should be careful to stay away from personal bias. Simply report the findings of experts in the field that you are researching.
In the last section, summarize the information you have presented. Then describe your opinion about the issue (are you in favor or against) and explain why you feel this way based on your evidence you have reviewed. Did the evidence change your opinion at all?
This paper should be between 750-1000 words, double spaced, 12pt. Times New Roman, 1 inch margins. Additionally, you should reference at least 3 sources (cite using MLA or APA format). Your sources should also be listed in a bibliography.
**You can NOT use Abortion or the 2nd Amendment as a topic choice** Instead choose a contemporary topic. Choose something currently affecting the world. For helpful information see page 340 in your text under “A contemporary Moral Issue” section of how to write an ethics paper.
Topic: Procurement/Supply Chain
-Company to be used Starbucks
-Please include subtitles for each section
*Focus your analysis on the procurement or acquisition practices of the company(Starbucks) and the types of materials that the company uses. Also, analyze where those materials are sourced, how they are delivered, and what the overall supply chain operations of the company are.

*** ONLY PROFESSIONAL WRITERS ***
Before I explain the task, I want to briefly explain my research background and method. Remember, you have to read the a good part of the thesis with utmost care to be able to complete the task. You must read Hevner’s paper that I attach with this task. However, I will provide you with hints for each task.
Background: My discipline is Information Systems (IS) and my research is about developing an evaluation technique for online surveys. As part of my thesis, I developed this online survey software among other things. This online survey software is used to collect data from participants of various studies. These studies are hosted by the online portal u-care. The entire facility is part of the U-CARE research program where the idea is to deliver care online via the u-care portal. Basically, researchers/therapists/practitioners conduct studies via the u-care portal, where participants are added and put randomly into different groups (control/treatment/reference). Participants are asked periodically to fill in online questionnaires via the u-care portal during their study process. My research idea here is, I log participants activities while they are answering surveys/questionnaires. For example, when respondents open a questionnaire, answer a question, go to the next page, change answers, delete answers, and submit questionnaires and so on. I call this process Respondent Behavior Logging (RBL). The idea here is, by looking into the log data, we can develop a system of inquiry to evaluate the effectiveness of questionnaires/surveys. Therefore, researchers may then discover shortcomings of questionnaires/surveys i.e., bugs, flaws, or improvement opportunities.
Method: Since my primary area of research in Information Systems (IS), therefore, my research contribution must be in the field of IS among others. I am following Design Science Research (DSR). Basically, in DSR, an artifact is to be developed (i.e. RBL) which has to be unique, relevant, and innovative. The artifact must be evaluated rigorously. The impact of such artifact has to be significant and solve real-world problems.
Task: Open the thesis.pdf file. There are 2 tasks in this thesis. Hints for each task are marked in yellow in the thesis. Please browse through the thesis and find those yellow tasks so that you know the context in which the text should fall into.
1. Task #1 in page 39 (marked in yellow). The answer for this task should be 1 page long.
2. Task #2 in page 54 (marked in yellow). The answer for this task should be just 3 page long.
Please feel free to ask questions. I really appreciate if you do that.
Two tasks on brain-based learning Attachment
Task 1: Go back to video, if needed, to revisit the concept of relaxed alertness. Please study the pictures attached in the word document below and discuss the one best representing this concept. In other words, which picture best represents a student in a classroom that is relaxed and alert? Why? Discuss a class that exemplifies such a classroom environment and some strategies teachers can use to create such a brain friendly environment.
Task 2: Discuss the fight, flight, freeze modes students may be in inside the class by referring to your experiences and/or observation for at least one of these modes. Describe teacher and student behavior. What could have the teacher done better to prevent students entering these modes?
Finally write 2 sentences as a response to the screenshot of the students work below! You can also use the screenshot to understand the structure of this assignment as it is the same assignment however another students work.
overall should be 650 words not less
Suppose that we observe the following information for a company that we are trying to value (ERIC) and two matching companies:
Ratio ERIC MATCH1 MATCH2
P/E 10 20 15
Please answer each question:
a. Based on this information, is ERIC undervalued or overvalued? Justify your answers.
b. If ERIC has EPS of $2.0, what would an appropriate target price be for ERIC using relative valuation?
