TOPIC CHOICE ONE: Innovative Entrepreneurs – Walker and Ford

Here you will focus on the business approaches of Madame C. J. Walker and Henry Ford. Both developed innovative and successful approaches in a time of rapid economic change. You will compare them in the way they started their respective businesses and the key innovative features that made each successful. One might find virtues, problems, and successes associated with both. You might see elements of each in strategies of later leaders and related issues even today.

Sources: Schultz, p. 396-7 (only Ford is discussed in our textbook). For Madam C. J. Walker (1867-1919), see http://www.madamcjwalker.com/bios/madam-c-j-walker/; and https://www.pbs.org/wnet/african-americans-many-rivers-to-cross/history/100-amazing-facts/madam-walker-the-first-black-american-woman-to-be-a-self-made-millionaire/.

LENGTH AND DEVELOPMENT: Each paper in our class is a 5-paragraph essay, plus there is a title page (=cover page) at the start and a Sources list at the end. The body of the paper is to be double-spaced. The body of the paper should be five paragraphs and a total of 500-to-800 words in length. The 500 minimum is firm; you really have not adequately developed the paper if less than that. The 800-word upper limit is really a guideline—ok to go over. Just don’t ramble.

Use ONLY the sources designated (ATTACHED THE SECTION OF THE BOOK FOR SCHULTZ PAGE 396)

  • Be typed, double spaced between lines, using Times New Roman font, Calibri, Arial, or Courier (size 10, 11, or 12), with one-inch margins on all sides. You must have a Sources list at the end; each source listed must also be cited in the body of the paper with an in-text citation.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the Sources page are not included in the required assignment page length.
  • The body of the paper should be five paragraphs and a total of 500-to-800 words in length. The 500 minimum is firm; you really have not adequately developed the paper if less than that. The 800 maximum is a loose guideline. The body of the paper is to be double-spaced. Typically, if you follow these instructions, the body of your paper will be 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pages in length; add a page for your title page and another for your sources list and that then gets to 4-1/2-to 5-1/2. But the length requirement is evaluated by word count.

The SWS style in-text citations in the body of your paper would look something like these:

(Schultz, 1, p. #).(Bundles, 2).(Gates, 3).(History.com, 4).

The SWS style list of sources at the end of your paper would look something like this, though the order may vary:

for this exercise we will be using an enigma simulator please follow these steps

by

For this exercise, we will be using an Enigma Simulator. Please follow these steps:

1. Find the Enigma Simulator at http://enigmaco.de/enigma/enigma.html. You will need to have a Java plugin to run it. Be sure to hit the Reset button on the Enigma machine before encoding or decoding, to ensure that you will have the machine in a known start state.
2. Try encoding a short sentence, e.g., “HOW NOW BROWN COW.” As you type the message, you will see the output of the machine “IIYSAAJTMJEKPU.” Copy the encrypted message to your clipboard (i.e., highlight the encrypted message and hit ctrl c). Next, hit the Reset button on the simulator to get

back to the initial state. Then copy your encrypted message into the simulator’s IN box (i.e., click on the IN box, and then hit ctrl v). Your decrypted message should appear in the OUT box.
3. Now try some more complicated encryption. Again, start by hitting RESET on the simulator. Before typing (or pasting) your message set one or more wheels, and the connections on the plugboard. For example, you can rotate the left-most wheel one notch clockwise. Now, enter your message and copy the output. Reset the machine, make the same initial adjustments to the wheels and plug-board, and copy your encrypted message into the IN box. You should get your original message back in the OUT box.
4. Now, if you have gotten this far, you have mastered the Enigma machine, and you are ready to exchange a message with the class.
5. Again, start by resetting the machine. Then, make the preliminary machine adjustments, noting exactly how you have done it (e.g., second wheel one notch clockwise, top “J” connected to bottom “M” and bottom “M” connected to top “J” on the switchboard). Now, encrypt a short message [minimum 75 words] and note the output. Smaller messages would not get full credit.
6. Post your encrypted message in response to this Conference; be sure to include the initial settings that you used on the machine.

how do the paradigms of great chain of being and essentialism color your thinking

by

How do the paradigms of “Great Chain of Being” and “Essentialism” color your thinking?

Earlier we used the term Paradigm. Two Paradigms that have a strong role in our culture and affect our assumptions, about people, life, scientific processes and particularly evolution are the paradigms of The Great Chain of Being and Essentialism. It is important for us to be aware of the impact of these paradigms in our perceptions of the world. By becoming aware we are able to begin the process of shifting our paradigm.

Mooney Falls - Eric shoots the mist - I'm not as crazy (this time)Treehttps://www.flickr.com/photos/7202153@N03/65853139… https://www.flickr.com/photos/93416311@N00/2958714113https://www.ted.com/talks/manuel_lima_a_visual_history_of_human_knowledge/transcript

Watch this scientist talk about the way that these ideas or ideologies mislead scientists and how the work of science actually helps lead us away from our wrong way of thinking towards newer insights, like the networking imagery discussed in the Ted talk.

Scientist, Ernst Mayr discusses ESSENTIALISM in this video – Link

The “Great Chain of Being” or Scala Naturae, has affected the way we have thought about our relationship with nature, for a very long time. Many early scientists were unable to understand nature because of this notion that all of nature forms a hierarchy with God and the saints and angels followed by mankind at the top of the scale and all the lowly creatures and plants and insects below us.

We understand today that this kind of thinking is backward. It doesn’t have a place in the study of nature.

** Share ways that you know the Great Chain of Being paradigm has affected your thinking. –

What are some assumptions you make about life and other organisms that shows the impact of this view on your worldview?

Then share your answer to the question

– How would you rethink this? If we accept that the Great Chain of Being is a paradigm that interferes with our ability to examine nature effectively as scientists have confirmed for us, how can we change, or shift our paradigm?

for ex. -Germs are low on the scale according to the Great Chain of Being Paradigm but in fact, we have learned that they are very powerful they have wiped out populations! So we now see how not focussing on the power of the”lowly” germ would interfere with our true understanding of the causes of illnesses. Do not reuse this example. Find your own example of how to shift this paradigm.

OR

Rose

think about Essentialism – define it and then give an example of how it colors your thinking. It is important to understand the impact of essentialism because it interferes in our understanding of evolution.

We have the misconception that evolution happens for a reason and is headed towards the best form or towards a goal, and this simply is not so.

So What are some assumptions you make about life and other organisms that shows the impact of this view on your worldview? How would you rethink this? If we accept that the idea of essentialism is a paradigm that interferes with our ability to examine nature effectively as scientists have confirmed for us, how can we change, or shift our paradigm? we may think that we were meant to look as we do today as homo sapiens, but when we study the fossil record we see that there were environmental conditions that affected how organisms survived and which features hung on and which changed.

And environmental conditions are changing all the time.

There is no end to evolution there is always more change.

We are not the final goal. It is random there is no goal.
