Assignment 3: Defining Social Justice Social justice has been defined in different ways, but the definitions usually include similar ideologies. As you study the concept of social justice, you will come across some of the following ideas: Historical inequities that affect current injustices should be corrected until the actual inequities no longer exist or have been perceptively "negated.” Wealth, power, and status should be redistributed for the good of the individual, the community, and the society. It is the responsibility of the government (or those who hold significant power) to ensure a basic quality of life for all its citizens.

Tasks: Read your textbook as well as any external source to prepare an 8 to 10 slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. In your presentation: Identify four sources of crime data. Identify the data collection methods as well as the agencies in charge of the data. Describe the types of data collected (for example, crimes committed, offender data, and victim data). Describe the pros and cons of each data set. Describe three crime trends from the identified sources of crime data. Note : Include a reference page formatted in APA style that links back to your in-text citations and supports your recommendations. Remember, you must have both in-text citations and references because they are linked to each other. Submission Details: Save the final presentation as M1_A3_Lastname_Firstname.ppt.

Assignment 3: Cultural Activity Report Due Week 10 and worth 100 points As a way of experiencing the Humanities beyond your classroom, computer, and textbook, you are asked to do a certain type of “cultural activity” that fits well with our course and then report on your experience. Your instructor will require you to propose an activity and get instructor approval before you do it and report on it (students should look for any instructions in that respect). Every effort should be made to ensure that this is a hands-on experience (not a virtual one), that this activity fits the HUM 112 class well, and that the activity is of sufficient quality for this university course. The two (2) key types of activities are a museum visit or a performance. Note : This must not be a report on the same activity (and certainly not the same report) as done for another class, like HUM 111. For instance, one might go to the same museum as done for HUM 111, but this HUM 112 report will focus on entirely different works and displays. Visit a museum or gallery exhibition or attend a theater, dance, or musical performance before the end of Week 10. The activity (museum or performance) should have content that fits our course well. Have fun doing this. Write a two to three (2-3) page report (500-750 words) that describes your experience. Clearly identify the event location, date attended, the attendees, and your initial reaction upon arriving at the event. Provide specific information and a description of at least two (2) pieces. Provide a summary of the event and describe your overall reaction after attending the event. Use at least the class text as a reference (additional sources are fine, not necessary unless required by your content). Your report should include connections you make between things observed in your activity and things learned in the course and text. Note : Submit your cultural activity choice to the instructor for approval before the end of Week 5 (earlier is even better). Look for guidance from the instructor for how or where to make your proposal. You may also seek advice from your instructor (provide your town / state or zip code) for a good activity in your general area. Visiting a Museum It makes sense to approach a museum the way a seasoned traveler approaches visiting a city for the first time. Find out what is available to see. In the museum, find out what sort of exhibitions are currently housed in the museum and start with the exhibits that interest you. If there is a travelling exhibition, it’s always a good idea to see it while you have the chance. Then, if you have time, you can look at other things in the museum. Every effort should be made ahead of time to identify a museum that has items and works one can easily connect to our HUM 112 class and book. Since HUM 112 covers from 1600 AD to the present, it makes more sense to focus on items from this time frame. In general, museums with fine arts work better than history .

Organization charts are frozen, anachronistic photos in a work place that ought to be as dynamic as the external environment around you. If people really followed organization charts, companies would collapse. In well-run organizations, titles are also pretty meaningless. At best, they advertise some authority, an official status conferring the ability to give orders and induce obedience. But titles mean little in terms of real power, which is the capacity to influence and inspire. Have you ever noticed that people will personally commit to certain individuals who on paper (or on the organization chart) possess little authority, but instead possess pizzazz, drive, expertise, and genuine caring for teammates and products?

Assignment 3: Bill of Rights When the Constitution was completed in the summer of 1787, approval by representatives from nine of the thirteen states was needed for it to become the nation’s law. The issue of individual rights was managed—though this, too, created conflict among the Framers—with the addition of the Bill of Rights. Change was written into the supreme law of the land; since then, legal institutionalization of changes has occurred. Since the Constitution’s adoption, change has taken place through the amendment process identified in the Constitution. Change has also occurred under the direction of the branches of government established in the Constitution: the executive, the legislature, and the judiciary. Research The Bill of Rights is the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Review the Bill of Rights in your textbook and select one of the first ten amendments to research more thoroughly. Using the Argosy University online library resources, select at least three peer-reviewed articles about the amendment you have selected. Look specifically for articles that focus on current events or controversies related to the amendment and be prepared to summarize the content of each article. Annotated Bibliography Prepare an annotated bibliography of your research. Please read Annotated Bibliography.pdf for an overview on annotated bibiographies. Click here for an example of what an annotated bibliography looks like. Include the following: For each article, write details such as the article title, author name, journal title, and publication date. Write a summary of each article in 200–250 words. Write the conclusions you have drawn from research and your opinion in 1–2 paragraphs. Write a reference list of the selected articles in APA style. Write a 2–3-page annotated bibliography in Word format. Apply APA standards for writing style to your work .

(A) is not allowed to leave the car, despite the police negotiator’s demand that she be allowed to exit the car. 1. Discuss the crime of kidnapping. Next, debate whether or not the suggested change in Question 3 would allow the court to convict the attacker for the crime of kidnapping. Provide a rationale to support your response. 2. Differentiate between the crimes of hostage taking and kidnapping. Support or critique the notion that one of the two crimes is more serious than the other. Justify your response. Consider the following change to the scenario. (A) and the attacker are romantically linked and are having an argument in the shopping mall parking lot. (A) pulls a knife from her purse and swings it at the attacker. 1. Debate whether or not (A)’s action would require the attacker to defend himself. Provide a rationale to support your response. 2.

Assignment 3: America as a Superpower For History 105: Dr. Stansbury’s classes (7 pages here) Due Week 9 and worth 120 points . The formal deadline is on Monday morning at 9am Eastern Time; this is the next day after Week 9 ends. Watch announcements, emails, and postings for exact dates and any holiday notes that sometimes arise. [NOTE ON ECREE: As you know from our first two papers, the university is adopting a tool called ecree for helping and doing writing assignments in many classes. In our History 105 class, we will be using the ecree program only for EXTRA CREDIT as a tool for doing work on your rough draft of the paper. We hope this approach encourages more rough drafting and revision work by students as well as makes students familiar with this useful new tool. For Assignment 3, in the Week 9 unit, you will see the link “EXTRA CREDIT: ROUGH DRAFT….”—that is where you can get up to 5 points of extra credit. Instructions will be posted there in the early days of the summer course. If you try this option, you will be able to use the file developed in ecree as a rough draft; you will then download that draft and edit it further. Then, once your paper is fully polished and finished as you see fit, you will then submit it at the next link in the Week 9 unit, which says “SUBMIT ASSIGNMENT 3: AMERICA AS A SUPERPOWER ”. ] The previous assignments focused on domestic matters in U.S. history. This last assignment explores America’s international role in recent decades. BACKGROUND FOR THE PAPER : This is a 5-paragraph paper based on research in designated sources. It is a position paper in which you support a thesis statement by reason and historical examples. By the mid-20th century, the United States had become the dominant force in international relations. Some have argued that the United States’ military functions as the world’s “police.” This assignment covers the manner in which this shift occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its status as “policeman of the world.” One can identify early steps this direction well before World War II, but in this paper focus on the period from 1950 to the present. The American international “policing” role developed because of the Cold War, but now terrorists or any power having or trying to get weapons of mass destruction (WMD) are the potential targets of such a role. Your paper will use specific examples—two from the Cold War years (roughly 1950-1990) and two from the past three decades (1991-2019). Examine the two statements below and drawing from provided sources and the university’s online library, present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position. [Don’t use this background paragraph in your paper.] NOTE : The word “policing” here has nothing to do with traditional law enforcement agencies. It is more about trying to manage parts of the globe—usually by use of military force or the threat of it. Th.

Assignment 3 TCSS 143 Programming Assignment 3 Due: see canvas, by 11:55pm (submitted electronically). NOTE: Be sure to adhere to the University’s Policy on Academic Integrity as discussed in class. Programming assignments are to be written individually and submitted programs must be the result of your own efforts. Any suspicion of academic integrity violation will be dealt with accordingly Purpose: The purpose of this programming project is to apply concepts of Object-Oriented Programming and work with Recursion. There are 2 problems that need to be solved as part of this assignment. Program compiles 15 Points Documentation Java Docs for Problem 1 10 Points Process Problem 1 50 Points o Fields, Constructor, Methods (Movie.java) 15 Points o Handling Exceptions 10 Points o Test.java implementation 15 Points o Output 10 Points Problem 2 25 Points o Practice-It Problems Total 100 Points Assignment 3 Problem 1: Movie ADT You have been hired to an inventory system for movies that will allow the user to add, remove, and search for movies in the collection. In this exercise, you will complete and test an initial implementation of the Movie ADT that will be the heart of this inventory system. Step 1: Movie.java Create a class file Movie.java based on the description provided in the class diagram given below: Step 2: Implementation of the compareTo() method We have discussed the Comparable interface in class and we have seen some methods in the Collection interface and Collections class that use the compareTo() method. What would be a good method for determining whether one movie is less than, equal to, or greater than another movie? This is called the “Natural” ordering for the movie ADT. Implement your compareTo() method. Step 3: Exception Handling • The constructor should throw a java.lang.NullPointerException if title is null and a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if year is negative. • equals() & compareTo() methods should throw a java.lang.NullPointerException if its argument is null. Step 4: Test.java A driver file Test.java has been provided with the Assignment. You will modify the driver program to perform the following steps: 1. Instantiate eight objects of type Movie and add them to the movie List. 2. Print out the unsorted list of movies. 3. Sort the list of movies using Collections.sort(). 4. Print out the sorted list of movies. 5. Search for a particular movie in the list using Collections.binarySearch() 6. Test your equals method. Assignment 3 Problem 2: Based on Practice-It Do the following exercises from Practice-It: • University of Washington CSE 143 (CS2) (Under) Recursion Tracing: a. mystery2 b. mystery3 c. mystery7 • University of Washington CSE 143 (CS2) (Under) Recursion: a. factorial b. writeChars c. stutter d. countToB.

The visuals correlated with the topic of the presentation. The research materials used were also very good and provided a thorough insight into the company. Peer review 2 -Hello, I enjoyed learning about Ben and Jerry’s in your discussion post. It’s one of my favorite ice-cream and a place where I take my kids after a movie. When you started the PPT, you did not introduce yourself although you had a slide with your name. I would suggest for future, when you do another video PPT try and verbally introduce yourself. The tone was also consistent (monotone), however you provided all the requirements and explains Ethical and Corporate Social Responsibility and an Introduction on the organization. Thanks again for sharing your insights and I wish you all the best. attached is the peer reviews from me to the classmate .
