Netflix Strategic Plan Written Analysis Assignment (At least 15 Pages)

/in /by

You are required to prepare a written case analysis.  Written reports are generally more structured and more detailed than an oral presentation.  Always avoid using jargon, vague or redundant words, acronyms, abbreviations, sexist language, and ethnic or racial slurs.  And watch your spelling!  Use short sentences and paragraphs and simple words and phrases.  Use quite a few subheadings.  Arrange issues and ideas from the most important to the least important.  Use the active voice rather than the passive voice for all verbs; for example, say “I recommend that the company diversify” rather than “It is recommended to diversify.”  Use many examples to add specificity and clarity.  Tables, figures, pie charts, bar charts, timelines, and other kinds of exhibits help communicate important points and ideas.  Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.

Picture yourself as a consultant who has been asked by a company to conduct a study of its external and internal environment and to make specific recommendations for its future.  Prepare exhibits to support your recommendations.

In preparing a written case analysis, you should follow the steps outlined here, which correlate to the stages in the strategic-management process and the chapters in our textbook.

*Not everything outlined here is required in your paper.  Please view this as a general guideline*

Step 1 Identify the firm’s existing vision, mission, objectives, and strategies.

Step 2 Develop vision and mission statements for the organization.

Step 3 Identify the organization’s external opportunities and threats.

Step 4 Construct a Competitive Profile Matrix (CPM).

Step 5 Construct an External Factor Evaluation (EFE) Matrix.

Step 6 Identify the organization’s internal strengths and weaknesses.

Step 7 Construct an Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) Matrix.

Step 8 Prepare a Strengths-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats (SWOT) Matrix, Strategic Position and Action Evaluation (SPACE) Matrix, Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Matrix, Internal-External (IE) Matrix, Grand Strategy Matrix, and Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM) as appropriate. Give advantages and disadvantages of alternative strategies.

Step 9 Recommend specific strategies and long-term objectives. Show how much your recommendations will cost. Clearly itemize these costs for each projected year. Compare your recommendations to actual strategies planned by the company.

Step 10 Specify how your recommendations can be implemented and what results you can expect. Prepare forecasted ratios and projected financial statements. Present a timetable or agenda for action.

Step 11 Recommend specific annual objectives and policies.

Step 12 Recommend procedures for strategy review and evaluation.

Psychology Journal

 Critically thinking about the material presented in the courses you are taking can be challenging, especially when the students believes that they already have a robust understanding of the domain. For example, you may, at this point in your academic career, have already studied behaviorism, so you may believe you already have a deep understanding of what this theory is. However, consider the theory based on learning. The foundations of behaviorism suggest that we learn, not based on thought, but on physiological needs. This foundation was based on radical behaviorism, a sub-theory. Critically consider the evolution of behaviorism, and apply this to the following prompts. Use the following Journal 1 template downloadto explain each question.

To successfully complete this journal:

  1. Take the pre-test in Chapter 1: The Foundations of Behaviorism in your required text. Discuss your results.
  2. Discuss the ambiguity suggested by the multiple sub-theories and frameworks of behaviorism.
    • Hint: Do the numerous sub-theories indicate differing suggestions although one overarching definition of behaviorism is often presented?
  3. Explain how association doctrine and later, connectionism, evolved the foundations of behaviorism.
  4. Compare and contrast the stimulus-response (S-R) model and the law of effect and how the inclusion of a confirming reaction change the model.
  5. Outline the historical evolution of behaviorism suggested by its sub-theories (e.g. molar, radial, and psychological behaviorism).
  6. Summarize any takeaways that you have developed about behaviorism, including its sub-theories, based on the content this week.

Once you have finished writing, consider running the tool Turnitin (found in your Course Resources tab) to assure you have successfully used your own voice, rather than another author’s.

Your journal this week should be 700 to 900 words and have an introduction and a conclusion as described in the Writing Center’s resource Introductions & Conclusions (Links to an external site.). You should exhibit obvious attention to critical thought and understanding of the content, as demonstrated in TED-Ed Animation 5 Tips to Improve Your Critical Thinking (Links to an external site.).

Biological Science Theories

/in /by

  PLEASE READ FULL INSTRUCTIONS. NO PLAGIARISM! NO QUOTES, MUST PARAPHRASE. I WILL CHECK FOR RECYCLED WORK AND PLAGIARISM, SO WILL THE TEACHERS. THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE 07/13/21 AT 9PM PST. IF YOU CANT MEET THIS DEADLINE, DONT AGREE TO DO MY ASSIGNMENT. PRICE ISNT NEGOTIABLE. PLEASE READ GRADING RUBRIC. TEACHERS USE THE GRADING RUBRIC TO DETERMINE GRADE. IF DIRECTIONS ARENT BEING FOLLOWED, I WILL DISPUTE RIGHT AWAY. LETS AVOID THAT.  

In this assignment you are being asked to focus on biological determinants. While not nearly as common as social determinants, biological determents can also have a major impact on an individual’s quality of life. In the directions below you are being asked to pair a biological determinant with a biological theory from the Instructor Guidance to demonstrate several real-world public health actions.

  • Use this biological science :  Family history of disease – An individual whose family member, especially a parent, suffers from a health condition is highly susceptible to that health condition 
  • Choose one biological determinant of health.
  • Compare and contrast the relationship between the social determinant of health you discussed in your Week 2 Place Matters Assignment (Environment we live in) and the relationship between the biological determinant of health and the biological science theory you chose above.

In your evaluation, consider and address the following:

  • What are the social implications of using biological science theories in public health interventions? Use scholarly research to support your reasoning.
  • What is the relationship between biological science theories and biological determinants of health? Use scholarly research to support your reasoning.
  • How are biological science theories used at the national and international levels to address determinants of health (social, behavioral, etc.)? Use scholarly research to support your reasoning.
  • Using a real world biological determinants public health intervention and a real world social determinants public health intervention, compare and contrast the outcomes and the overall impact.
  • Why are biological determinants often overlooked in public interventions when compared with social determinants? How do the interventions vary and consider social and political factors that may be involved?

The Biological Science Theories paper

  • Must be four double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA Style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center’s APA Style (Links to an external site.)
  • Must include a separate title page with the following:
    • Title of paper
    • Student’s name
    • Course name and number
    • Instructor’s name
    • Date submitted

CR002 Impact of Bias and Discrimination on Children, Families, and Communities

/in /by

Question 6. Thabisa is an early childhood professional at an early childhood care center. A new child named Dana, who has two gay fathers, recently joined her class. She is perfectly comfortable with this, but is a little worried that it may be a controversial issue for some of the parents of other children at the center. Therefore, Thabisa chooses not to discuss it with the rest of the class. Both the fathers have dropped Dana off in the mornings, but none of the children appear to have noticed anything unusual about the family. 

One day, the group discussion turns to a focus on the make-up of each child’s family. Many children are excited to discuss their large families, including grandparents, older and younger siblings, and even some step- and half-siblings as well. Dana does not join in the discussion. 

Later that afternoon, the children are tasked with drawing pictures of their families. Dana’s picture comprises her two fathers and the two family dogs. The other children see her picture and ask where her mom is, at which point Dana becomes very withdrawn. When her father comes to pick her up later, Thabisa hears her ask him, “Daddy, are we not normal?”

Explain why it is important for the early childhood professional in this scenario to promote acceptance and diversity in early childhood settings.

 Unit 2 Assignment: Summarization

Attached Files:

Throughout your coursework and professional career, it is extremely important that you write in your own words.  You will often be tasked with reading key materials and then be asked to incorporate the content into a paper, or other type of written or oral presentation.  At times, the material you are reading might be quite technical, and it might be challenging for you to present these ideas in your own words.  This is your opportunity to practice this important skill. 

 Review the following websites to learn about summarizing: 

 Purdue Owl: Quoting, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/using_research/quoting_paraphrasing_and_summarizing/paraphrasing_sample_essay.html

 Example of a Summary https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/using_research/quoting_paraphrasing_and_summarizing/paraphrasing_sample_essay.html

Instructions: 

For this assignment, you will: 

 Read the passage (below) from your textbook. 

 Think about the main ideas contained in the passage. 

 Make a list of four (4) main ideas contained in the passage. 

 In your own words, summarize the main ideas in paragraph form with a minimum of four (4) complete sentences. 

Textbook Passage: 

“…how much of our behavior is a consequence of our unique and special qualities, the individual differences that differentiate us from other people? Conversely, how much reflects the culture and society in which we live, stemming from universal principles that underlie the behavior of all humans? Psychologists who rely on the neuroscience perspective tend to look for universal principles of behavior, such as how the nervous system operates or the way certain hormones automatically prime us for sexual activity. Such psychologists concentrate on the similarities in our behavioral destinies despite vast differences in our upbringing. In contrast, psychologists who employ the humanistic perspective focus more on the uniqueness of every individual. They consider every person’s behavior a reflection of distinct and special individual qualities.” 

 Summarize this paragraph in your own words and include the following reference for your textbook below your summary:
