Comparative Politics: Democracy and Dictatorship

Module 5: Portfolio Milestone: Option #1: Analyzing Leadership Decisions Annotated Bibliography and Reference List Identify a minimum of five appropriate sources from the CSU Global library, including academic, professional, and peer-reviewed journal articles, and prepare an annotated bibliography. The sources must be no older than five years. Provide a written summary of the purpose and relevance of each source. Each summary should include a minimum of two paragraphs. Be sure to review the Portfolio Project Milestone rubric for details regarding grading standards.

Chapter 5 is all about learning behavior. Each and everyone one of us has acquired a number of behaviors over many, many years. And whether these behaviors are good, bad or extremely ugly, they were learned through one of the three learning theories we’ve been discussing (at least according to learning theorists). The great thing about learning is that if a behavior can be learned, odds are that it can be unlearned. In this reflection paper your goal is to: What is the behavior? Identify ONE BAD HABIT that you have LEARNED but would like to change. Choose ONLY ONE bad habit and focus on that. Do NOT choose something more complex that could be considered a personality trait or an emotion–that would be difficult to explain using learning theory. Remember, Behaviorists focus on OBSERVABLE, MEASURABLE behavior. For example, don’t say “I’d like to change my anger,” or “shyness”, or “my tendency to please others”–these are NOT good choices. These are emotions/personality traits that are not likley to be learned through behaviorist theories. BAD choices for this paper = anger, anxiety, shyness, rudeness, people pleasing etc. GOOD EXAMPLES for this paper= procrastination, nail biting, smoking, drinking, overeating, too much TV/videogames/social media, etc. These can ALL be easily measured so that you can Something that you can easily see if you begin doing more or less of this habit. Then briefly describe the behavior and how it has become problematic in your life. What learning theory applies? Identify which theory (classical conditioning, operant conditioning, or social-cognitive learning theory) best explains how you acquired the behavior and why? Be sure to use terminology that is appropriate to that learning theory. The point of your essay is to demonstrate your understanding of these theories and your ability to apply them accurately, so you MUST be detailed. How can you unlearn this behavior? Now that you have explained how you acquired this behavior, use learning theory to discuss how you can extinguish the behavior. Which learning theory (classical conditioning, operant conditioning, or social-cognitive learning theory) will you use to help unlearn the behavior and how? What is the specific plan? Again, be sure to use appropriate learning theory terminology. It is necessary to demonstrate an understanding of the material in Chapter 5, Module 3. Grammar, Spelling and Organization. This is a college level ESSAY and should be organized in essay format. An essay is NEVER one long paragraph. You should carefully spell check and grammar check your work. Try this: Read your essay OUT LOUD and see how it sounds. If there are sentences that make you pause, then they are not good sentences—fix them. Remember you may also utilize the writing center for assistance–they are excellent and can set up online appointments to help review your work. They can proofread a draft and offer suggestions ONLINE. The following grading rubric will be used, so make sure that you have accurately addressed each component. Remember, the point of the essay is to demonstrate an understanding of the theories presented in Chapter 5/Module 3 and your ability to accurately apply those theories: Topic Area Points ONE Problematic Bad/Habit Clearly Identified, Detailed & Measurable /3 Acquisition: Choose ONE theory (classical conditioning, operant conditioning OR social-learning theory) as the cause of your bad habit. Correctly explain how the behavior has caused the acquisition of your bad habit by using specific, detailed and correct terminology from the theory. /7 Extinction: Choose ONE theory (classical conditioning, operant conditioning OR social-learning theory) to plan for extinction of your bad habit. Correctly explain how you will apply the theory by using specific, detailed and correct terminology from the theory. /7 Overall quality: Clarity, organization, grammar, spelling and APA citations if applicable). /3 Other Guidelines: Papers MUST be submitted here. Emailed papers or attachments will not be accepted. You SHOULD type your essay directly into the assignment (you can exit and return as many times as you like until you hit the submit button). You can cut and paste from a word document BUT keep in mind that if you cut and paste IT MAY CHANGE the formatting of your work. If this happens you should fix the formatting to ensure proper essay format before submitting. The essay should be no more than 2 pages (approximately 500 words) in length, using 12 point font, double spaced (if you type directly into Canvas, it will double space for you). When you mention a concept or theory in your paper, be sure to provide a definition/explanation from the textbook. When you take a definition/explanation from the textbook, do not copy it word for word; instead, paraphrase in your own words and cite the textbook in APA style (Hockenbury and Hockenbury, 2016, pg #). BEWARE of PLAGARISM.

Please follow the instructions from the attachment and complete the project using Fathom 2 as an assistance. The instructions for what to do with Fathom: Use Fathom and the data set to create 5 interesting graphs, either showing a high correlation (in particular if you did not expect one) or a correlation close to zero (when you would have expected a higher one). (Graph tool) Create a summary table for a single attribute, and one for two attributes. (Preferably ones that you used in the graphs above. Write two paragraphs on what you observed, and then ask questions you would be interested in having answered. (Use text tool)

That is, it is one thing to answer a test, another thing to live the experience. It is often very difficult to comprehend the parts of science. This is especially true when urban centers provide all things for individuals. However, individuals even in groups that are provided learn a group function. That is, they acquire a process to accomplish things. The process is trial and error which is the basis of science. Therein, ● An argument can be made that in everyday life there is science. For example, a person may need to go from one place to another. ● They have to start with a basic idea of what is the best path. This idea is the hypothesis. Not necessarily true but something testable. ● They must then travel and collect information about the journey. The information if charted is data. The data can be used to make predictions about continuing the path daily or how a different path may be better. Ultimately-overtime by trial and error several paths are chosen, each one will have its own advantages, and there will now be choices; not one answer. ________________________________________ Therefore in a LAB course there may be more than one acceptable answer for a question but….that is based on the answers which must match the data presented. Meaning, it is not speculation. The path is decided by experience. A: The initial idea of; there is a path which will get to where I am going is a testable question. All science is based on this one criteria of being testable. B: Second, the path must be able to be taken by others in the future. Science must be repeatable. Therefore, if something is testable and repeatable then it is the realm of science. ________________________________________ Many things we encounter or rely on daily are science in principle and many are applied science. ● A science principle is some idea which is science based and possible. ● Applied science is the idea in action. ● The first is a hypothesis the second is the test/experiment The method of experiential ideas, and data collection is what science essentially is. Therefore, many have been doing science for sometime. However, some will forget the basics and use speculation as science when they are missing the data. Simply, no evidence or data equals no science. It is a simple yet important distinction. ________________________________________ Name:Class number and time: Prof: Date: anthbio.LAB- 3.0. mckendricksj.

Please see the enclosed documents for assignment details. Please use additional documents for background information. How can we maintain program momentum for different health and community-related programs in the field of healthcare? This should include an analysis of a sustainability tool of your own choosing – SustainTool.Org.

The following questions are based on this drawing as well as additional information which is listed in the tables. Under usual circumstances students do all the calculations and measurements. However, the goal is to get a connection though to humans from non-human apes and discover a related species and decide where they belong based on the data. Therefore the math is largely posted for you except on the last section 4. You will be asked to interpret the math one questions 1 through 3. Questions for you will be asked to complete, fill -in, and interpret the math compiling data for the story of evolution, especially the connection to human-like animals. Clearly we are not the same as orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, nor bonobos but, there are some species which are more similar to us then others. In this section we are evaluating some of the long bones for a determination of obligated bipedalism especially the ability to walk long distances. There are 46 total answers with a combined score of 50 pts. Be sure to follow all the way to the end. The last question is 4e section a and b. Grade scale x/50 x 60 = score Brachial index is = (R) radius length divided by(H)humerus length x 100 Crucial index is = (T)tibia length divided by (F)femur length x 100 Intermembral index is = combined lengths of the the radius and humerus divided by the combined lengths of the tibia and femur [( R+H) ÷ (T+F)] x 100

It should be 3 full pages in a MLA format. I will attach the question and sample of the paper how we need to do it. So please check it.

Marketing Plan – Beats by Dre At this point, you have selected a product or service to write about and have analyzed market opportunities. This week your challenge will be to focus in on the target market. To be effective, a target market needs to be identifiable (you must know who and where they are in detail), persuadable (you have to convince them to part with their hard-earned money for your product or service), able to pay (goes without saying), and substantial, that is, big enough so that they produce enough sales to meet your top line projections. ( I PICKED BEAT BY DRE SPEAKER) The relevant chapter to guide you is Chapter 7. In part one of the assignment you need to consider each of the following topics, and then address those that apply to your target. Topics that are relevant to every product and service are marked with dollar sign, which I think to be an appropriate indicator. Demographics Geographics Choice Criteria Purchase Influence Product Usage $ Lifestyle Part two is a single paragraph indicating which market strategy you are choosing (niche, mass, or growth) and why.

Classification using cladograms worksheet (10 pts)You will turn in this worksheet. ________________________________________This section is designed as an easy points getter : )The path the course is now taking is to identify traits/characteristics and to think about how those traits have affected the species in question. For example, we have reviewed a bit about the changes in the skeletons of humans and other species. In those things we have noted skeletons have changed in a sequence overtime in that;● Human types have special adaptations which allow and require a two legged walk, aka facultative bipedalism.● There are isolation forces, geographic isolation, which can produce changes in animal types based on the ecosystem. For example,Foster’s Rule.● That variation of species is measurable as noted by Darwin’s Finches.Here in this section, there is a short lesson which gets the student acquainted with the process of biological classification. This is a small and simple lesson to give the idea of distinct traits, and mosaic species. This process can start with some basic assumptions, scientific ones, that things potentially get more complex as they change. It is important to note that a species can become simpler to survive but it also noted that some things become more complex. That being said we will start with the assumption that; things potentially get more complex as they change. Simpler is then older and more complex is newer. Note in following species, Andersenii aquaticus, is about first, the identification of the simply described simplest form of the organism, noted by the membranes (borders) and nothing else distinctive (Table1, Key concept 1.) This lesson assesses Mendel’s first law of: segregation. That is that offspring inherit their traits from parents. Therefore, related species had to get their traits from ones that existed before. It assesses evolutionary theory in showing that organisms tend towards complexity but at time entropy happens and things leave the family line. It shows the theory of phylogenetics ( gene types) and shows the relation in arbitrary time on the cladogram.
