Select two authors from the indigenous readings to compare and contrast. You may want to select one from each country and compare and contrast the Native American experience with that of the Aboriginal Australian experience.

  • What did the two populations have in common?
  • How were their experiences different?
  • How did the authors represent their time period and their culture?
  • How did they represent mainstream society vs. the indigenous people?
  • What are common traits in both worlds?
  • How are myths and legends utilized by both indigenous populations?

submit your comparison by writing a full paragraph on each story or author you are examining. (As a reminder, a full paragraph consists of 5-8 sentences). Feel free to utilize outside resources for support to your posts, and be sure to acknowledge your sources.

assignment 1352

Steve Jobs was a strong, charismatic leader who co-founded Apple and is credited with much of the success of the company. Some believe that Tim Cook, who became CEO in 2011, embraces a more collaborative leadership style. Do research to compare and contrast the leadership styles of the two CEOs. (You may wish to view the 2013 movie JOBS, which portrays the story of Steve Jobs’ ascension from college dropout to Apple CEO.) Which CEO—Jobs or Cook—do you think developed and executed the most effective strategic plan? What evidence can you find to support your opinion?

I need three answers for same question. Each answer must contain minimum 600 words.

accessing healthcare

The purpose of this assignment is to get students thinking about the importance of decision making in choosing a practitioner. Although most people would say that competence is the main criterion in this decision, research indicates that people tend to choose a medical practitioner on the basis of many other factors. For this assignment, you will be required to answer the following questions:

  • What other factors have you used to decide which physician, dentist, chiropractor, or other practitioner to visit?
  • Do you believe that the practitioners are competent? On what do you base your opinions about the competence of your practitioners?
  • Do you believe your practitioner is competent because she or he is friendly and appears to be caring?
  • How can people without medical training know the competence level of health care professionals?

Your submission should be 3-4 pages total in length (double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font, one inch margins).

sociological-concept-writing

Description:

Our Introduction to Sociology course focuses on concepts.2

Your assignment is to choose two sociological concepts we have discussed or read about in the course. The two concepts should seem related to you.3 Your job is to produce a short essay in which you A. Describe these two concepts in your own words, and B. Discuss their relationship.

Describing a concept in your own words does not mean that you make up a personal meaning for it. It also does not mean you rely completely on someone else’s definition. You must walk a middle path of synthesizing what you have learned about a concept in a way that allows you to put it in your own words, but in a way that is accurate to the concept’s sociological meaning.

Your analysis must rely on your own thinking, and must reflect a sociological perspective

You may, but are not required, to make use of scholarly sources in your paper. You are encouraged to do so, but you must do it properly: If you choose to cite external materials, you are strongly encouraged to consult with library staff to ensure that the sources from which you draw are reliable scholarly sources. Materials pulled from the internet rarely meet that standard, so be

1 Papers received after that time will be docked a full letter grade for each day, and no papers will be accepted more than 72 hours after the due -date and time.
2 Sociological concepts are abstractions which embody (and result from) analyses of how we live together (also known as ‘social life’), act together and/or come into conflict in groups, the conditions under which we do so, and how each of these changes over time and through processes of social interaction. Hence, institutional isomorphism, gender, proletariat, and social structure all stem from sociological observation and reflect a theory of some type. Many sociological concepts overlap with ones we also commonly use in public life as well, and often appear in the mass media, such as racism, self-fulfilling prophesy, or globalization. (Many other concepts sociologists use differ markedly from the parallel terms found in everyday life: sex worker vs. “prostitute” or deviant vs. “criminal”.)

3 If you wish, one of the two concepts you choose can be of the type that is also used in the mass media (discussed in footnote #1).

careful. Further, if you rely upon external sources, your paper must include a bibliography which should not be included in your word count. Misused or non-scholarly sources will countagainst your grade.

How you will be graded/what I expect

There is no one ‘right’ way to do this paper. You have a lot of leeway to choose concepts you will discuss, but you should definitely stick to concepts that you find personally interesting. I will be looking for you to display a strong grasp of their meaning and relevance. In your discussion, I will be paying attention to the thought you put into arguing the relationship between these concepts, the clarity with which you do so, and the sophistication of your analysis. Lastly, I am looking for you to seriously and honestly challenge yourself in both your choice of concepts and your engagement with them.

Here is a grading rubric:

  1. Does the paper adhere to the IIT, Department of Social Sciences, and Course guidelines on Academic Honesty in every way? Is the paper original to this course and this student?Yes? Proceed to criteria # 2 No? STOP. Paper receives an E.
  2. Are both concepts sociological? Were they also discussed in class or in class reading? No? 50% reduction in all possible points per missing sociological concept.
    Yes? Up to 38 points, consisting of:
    • – Rigor and clarity of your explanation of each concept in your own words:10 points per concept
    • – Successful synthesis of concepts from sources, (be they class discussion, the textbook, and/or outside sources), in your own words: 9 points per concept
  3. Are the concepts challenging to engage? Up to 16 points
  4. Are the relationships between the concepts thoughtfully and carefully explored? Up to 30points.
  5. Is your analysis insightful, creative or otherwise reflecting particularly hard work, hardthinking, or both? Up to 16 points.

Excellence in every standard is the expectation for a grade of A.
Above-average overall performance in these standards will earn a grade of B.
Meeting the basic overall expectations of the assignment will earn a grade of C.

A paper which does not meet basic expectations in significant ways will earn a grade of D. A paper which does not meet minimal standards will receive a grade of E.
