Directions: This assignment will be divided into two parts. You will identify an elected official and an appointed official in your area. As an example, you may choose the mayor of your city and an appointed position would be the city manager. Finally you will synthesize the information by using the literature to support your claims. You should list all references used at the end of each part as well as, in-text citations when needed. All citations must be in APA format. Part One - List an individual, their position held, and explain the role of that person plays in policy making. Elected Official: Appointed Official: Part Two – In 250-500 words, discuss the similarities in the policy making process of the roles listed above. Compare and contrast the elected and appointed official. Consider how each gains the position, the role of each, and how they can affect policy. Use two to three scholarly resources to support your explanations.
The Case I choose is De Beers Diomond Brand or you can choose another topic to write. The purpose of the Live Case Brief assignment is to demonstrate your ability to apply your Moral Compass and course tools to develop and justify an action plan to manage an ethical challenge. This assignment activates all five of the BLHV learning objectives. Your instructor will establish the protocols for your case in Week 4 or 5. You may be assigned a case or you may be able to choose a case. Your professor will provide specific criteria for choosing a recent case. You will conduct your own ethical analysis of a scenario and develop an action plan using the tools, methods, and frameworks from the course as well as your own independent inquiry and thought. You may consult any and all learning materials from the seminar and elsewhere; you may also consult and discuss the case with others. The written brief, however, must be entirely your own work. If you do consult other sources, you must credit and cite them properly in APA format. The case brief should be 3500 words, excluding the References and Title page.

Students choose one: The study of ethics is philosophical in nature; it is the attempt to determine the right and wrong features of our acts. But it could have practical implications as well. Take some time to think about what those might be. Present your conclusions here in a careful and articulate manner. For the philosopher, "because God said so" is an unsatisfactory answer to the question "why is act X moral (or immoral)?" Carefully explain why that is so. The lecture "Knowing and Doing" says "One might believe that in order to live well and good, the child does not require a better answer to his question than the one offered." Do you believe this? In other words, do you believe that it is possible to live a moral life without knowing why it is a moral life? Or do you believe that to live morally you are required to have a philosophical basis for your beliefs about ethics?
The paper must be 1200-1500 words long minimum (but can be longer). If you were to ask 10 people, "How do I write a Paper?" you'd probably get 10 different responses. No one seems to know exactly how to do one, yet almost everyone is assigned one at some point in his or her academic career. Here is a guide to what faculty are usually "looking for" in a well-written paper. So, I will outline what your paper should look like below. I. Thesis, Argument, and Conclusion. 700 words or so. Goal: Produce a short argumentative piece including an expository section. This should be your introduction (to the question/issue at hand), an explanation of the fundamental traits of a philosopher, and then your argument section for Socrates. Note: Your introduction should include an inclusive thesis for the whole paper. That means, it must lay-out what you are trying to accomplish over the whole of the paper (ie, both section I and II). You must first explain what it means to be a philosopher. You need to identify and explain three traits that embody what it means to be a philosopher. You can use all and only the class material on canvas or in the textbook. You need to explain each trait without reference to Socrates. You should use examples of the traits as well as explain the traits themselves. The next section of the first part of your paper should be your argumentative case for Socrates. Remember, you will be using all the applicable material from Unit 1 to make your case for whether Socrates should be considered a paradigmatic philosopher. How does Socrates meet these standards (or criteria)? Make arguments and give evidence/support! II. Final addendum/Your Epilogue: What about you? 500 words or so. Goal: Answer these questions: Reflecting on the three traits above (from section I), am I a philosopher? Why or Why not? Give examples/evidence. What do you, or could you, gain from being a philosopher? Remember, however, that every faculty member is different: some will want you to spend more time "analyzing" or "evaluating" the piece, others on giving your personal reactions to it. The best rule of thumb is to ask your professor for clarification. Here are mine:
Problem Set 3 Chapter 6: Section 6.3 Part I: #9, 11 Part II: #8, 9 Section 6.4 Part I: #8, 9 Part II: #14, 15, 17 Section 6.6 Part II: #3, 5 These questions can be found in the exercises section of the book.
Attached is the requirement for the case study, I need a report answering all the points of the slides, and a powerpoint presentation, and what kind of normative ethics did they use between the 3, and if it was a mix of 2 or 3 of them. The ethical case i chose is Johnson & Johnsons Tylenol Crisis in 1982. The slides and the report should talk about the same thing, but the report more in details with the main points on the slides.
Support your reasoning using only examples from the attached PDF Don't forget to write your total word count at the end! According to Foucault, what is the relationship between the plague-stricken town and the panoptic establishment? In other words, why does he bring them up in the same chapter? What is his purpose for doing so? What is the Panopticon? Why does Foucault call it “power reduced to its ideal form?” Clarify how power becomes automated under panopticism. What are the major effects of panopticism on society? What are the consequences of those effects? What does Foucault mean by "power"? How does it relate to "knowledge," and how does knowledge operate? (Foucault touches on this a bit in the reading (p. 658) Use MLA in-text citations when citing or explaining evidence from the assigned reading
Cognitive dissonance arises when we hold inconsistent beliefs or when our behaviors contradict our attitudes. Most of us have a list of qualities and values we look for in a potential partner when we are dating. Perhaps your ideal mate loves children and wants to have a big family. Let’s say you have great chemistry with a person you met through a mutual friend. Nearly all of your values align, but the person is not keen on having kids. Consider the case study: Summer, a 26-year-old heterosexual Hispanic female exclusively dating Hunter, at 28-year-old European American male for 1.5 yrs. Hunter would much rather travel the world, which you think you would also enjoy. Despite your longtime desire to have a large family, you convince yourself that a life filled with travel will ultimately be more fulfilling. Deep down, you know that being a parent is more important to you than globetrotting, but you ignore the red flags to calm the dissonance you are experiencing. Discuss the issues related to cognitive dissonance for Summer. Can cognitive dissonance be helpful? In this case study? Discuss the potential long-term effects of cognitive dissonance on the character's mental well-being and ways to calm the dissonance. To complete the discussion post for full credit, follow the instructions below: A minimum of one complete paragraph for your answer. Note: a paragraph is a writing structure that requires a minimum of five complete sentences. These five or more sentences should represent a valid knowledge of the topic. Use APA 7th Citations and Formatting Examples. ***** Remember not to use artificial intelligence*****
