For this discussion, choose a fraud scheme from Chapters 15, 16, or 17. Educate yourself on your particular selected scheme, including some outside research to broaden your understanding. Post a 3 to 4 paragraph summary of the following:

• Summary description of the fraud scheme
• Educate us regarding the symptoms and warning signs of the particular scheme
• Summarize a case study example of the fraud scheme, either from research or from personal experience, of the fraud in your life or that of someone close to you
• Discuss methods of prevention for your selected fraud scheme, including how you can educate others in your life to help protect them
• Please be sure to cite any outside resources that you may use

Essay: Be sure to address the questions in the prompt directly in your introduction paragraph. Your essay should set forth a clear argument (thesis) and draw upon evidence from both lectures and the readings.

A good essay will reference primary sources to support argument. You may not use notes. When we began our course, I argued that the American ethnic/racial past is best understood within a framework of the “insider/outsider dilemma.” What exactly did I mean and how did HIST 10 ultimately bear this out? In your essay, fully explore one major ethnic/racial development from each of the following periods choose a group with in these time period (1607 – 1789, 1790 – 1900, and 1900 – 1980) to demonstrate the usefulness of the insider/outsider dilemma in Understanding America’s ethnic/racial past. Your response should touch on the experiences of at least three ethnic/racial groups.

In this week’s discussion forum, we will be summarizing a published work, and examining different viewpoints regarding the controversial topic of stereotyping. After summarizing the given article, explore differing viewpoints regarding the topic of stereotyping.

Finding a source

Use the EBSCO host link to find the following article:

Lun, J., Sinclair, S., & Cogburn, C. (2009). Cultural stereotypes and the self: A closer examination of implicit self-stereotyping. Basic & Applied Social Psychology, 31(2), 117-127. doi:10.1080/01973530902880340

Summarizing a published work

Your initial post should respond to each of following discussion elements:

Step 1: Summarizing a source

• Write a brief summary of the argument presented in the article above. Remember that summaries do not go into great detail. Your summary should have enough information for the reader to understand the focus (thesis) of the article and how the author supports the thesis. Your summary should contain all the following elements:
• Introduce the article by its author and title
• Explain the author’s argument (what does the author claim and what are the supporting reasons)
• What the does article tell us about individuality or identity?
• Use in-text citations to identify when you are using the author’s ideas.
• Quote a passage that struck you as interesting or enlightening and explain why.
• Introduce the quotation carefully with a signal phrase, such as, “Lun, Sinclair, & Cogburn explain that…”, and
• Include an in-text citation including a page number to cite your quotation.

Step 2: Examining Different Viewpoints

• One of the most interesting things about stereotypes is how they can affect the actions of those who have been stereotyped. Think of a stereotype you’re familiar with.
• Which came first, the label or the trait?
• How can the things that other people say about us affect who we become?

Step 3: Create a References Page

• At the end of your discussion post, create a references page:
• Type the word “References”
• Enter a line break
• Provide the full citation (in APA format) for your selected text.

I attached a very detailed instructions about the paper to this message.
