Consider the U.S. Constitution as a kind of ‘social contract’

Consider the U.S. Constitution as a kind of ‘social contract’ justifying government’s right to command and citizens’ duty to obey. Then ask yourself: is it a good agreement?

Consider the U.S. Constitution as a kind of social contract

For this essay you have the choice between two prompts and you can pick the one that will be easiest and develop a strong paper.

1. Why did the Founders want to establish a republic rather than a (direct) democracy or populist form of government? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each type of government? If ‘the people’ were to (re)found the U.S. today by re/writing the Constitution (their social contract), which form of government would ‘they’ most likely choose, and why? What kind of persons do they actually elect and want in office? Should all of the ‘people’ be involved in creating a form of government, or only some certain ones? Does it take aristocrats to create a decent democracy, as Publius sometimes seems to imply? Does it take such persons to keep it going?

2. Consider the U.S. Constitution as a kind of ‘social contract’ justifying government’s right to command and citizens’ duty to obey. Then ask yourself: is it a good agreement? That is, is it one that you are/ would be willing to make with others about shared governing institutions? Or, would you enter the contract only if certain changes were made first, and if so which ones? That is, (how) would you revise (and/or improve) the Constitution as a founding document? Are our institutions (in theory? in practice?) in fact – as Publius suggests – the ‘best’ form of government created by humans so far; alternatively, as many Americans think, is ours (politically speaking) in fact the ‘greatest country in the world’? Why or why not?

Develop and present your intervention plan as an addition to the existing program

In this milestone, you will develop and present your intervention plan as an addition to the existing program.
When looking for applicable research, review the interventions and specific practices recommended from the research that you want to incorporate into your intervention. You should discuss how these practices support the intervention. Keep in mind that this is a draft of section III of your final paper, so including a complete plan will mean that your instructor can provide more concrete suggestions for your final submission. Note that you cannot use the same research you used for your analysis (Milestone Two).

We recommend using the Shapiro Library to locate evidence-based programs and interventions.
Prompt: For this milestone, you will submit a draft of the intervention plan (section III of the final project), including all critical elements as listed below. Submit a draft plan for an intervention that will contribute to the effectiveness of the program in promoting personal and social (socioemotional) functioning for children living in diverse circumstances. How will the intervention reduce risk and increase resiliency? Now is a good time to revisit the Definitions handout (linked within the Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric document) to refresh your understanding of these concepts.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed in this milestone:

III. Intervention Plan: Now that you have identified the needs of your target age group and evaluated the efficacy and utility of the program you have selected, propose a plan for an additional intervention. Your intervention should strengthen the program by promoting personal and social (socioemotional) functioning and incorporating outcome measurements and evidence-based practices. You will research existing interventions and recommend one that best fits the age group and program.

A. Based on your research, what is an intervention that would contribute to the effectiveness of the program in promoting personal and social functioning for children living in differing circumstances? Moreover, how would the intervention promote personal and social functioning?

B. How would you take different cultures into consideration when applying this intervention? Provide an example.

C. What outcomes would be expected from this new intervention? Further, what is one method of measuring whether the intervention met the desired outcomes, and how would this method be applied to the intervention? Also, how would the outcomes be measured?

D. Does this intervention constitute an evidence-based practice, or include evidence-based practices? What is the evidence that supports the practice(s)? Further, alternatively, how evidence-based practices could be applied to this intervention, and what would be the benefit of doing this? How would the practice(s) support the intervention in meeting the desired outcomes?

E. How will this intervention consider the risk and resiliency factors of the specific age group? Also, how would addressing these factors benefit the intervention in promoting personal and social functioning?

F. What are ways the intervention will reduce risk and increase resiliency factors? How will the intervention do this?

Rubric
Guidelines for Submission: Your paper should be at least 2 or 3 pages in Microsoft Word, with double spacing,
12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins, and at least three sources cited in APA format.

RESEARCH PAPER ASSIGNMENT [Do not use Wikipedia as a source]

Time to leave your comfort zone.

For this assignment you will write a research paper, no less than five full pages. Do not use your textbook as a reference source.  Below are 6 highly recognized directors and 5 movies that they directed.  I want you to chose one of the directors and one of their films and answer the following three questions:
What did the reviews say about this movie? Using the library sources and/or the Internet as a resource, tell me what the reviewers said about this film and how it was rated.  I don’t want your opinion in this section.  I want you to interpret what others have said or written about the film.  You must have at least two different references and your textbook cannot be used as a source. I want you to paraphrase what was written about the movie and tell it to me in your own words. If you use the Internet make sure you give the full citation.  There is no need for a reference page.  Just put the citation in parentheses at the end of the section that uses the reference.

 

Who is the director?  Put a header here so I know this section has started.  Once again, do not tell me your opinion.  Explain to me who the director is and why film history thinks he or she is so worthy using at least two different references.  You may use each reference only once.  Paraphrase what is being said and tell it to me in your own words.  Again, put the full cite in parenthesis at the end of the section.  This section is extremely important and should be at least two full pages.

What do you think?

Put a header so I know this section has started.  Here’s your chance to sound off.  Tell me what you think of the director and his or her approach to the film.  I want your opinion even if you did not like the film or director.  This is your time to play Roger Ebert.  This section should be at least two pages long.  Do not use references in this section.  This section is your personal analysis of the film/director you have chosen.

Please DO NOT recap the plot or outline the film’s content.  I want a discussion of the film’s place in history, not a retelling of the story.

Here are the directors and the films I want you to choose from.
Kathryn Bigelow

1.    Near Dark, 1987
2.    Point Break, 1991
3.    Strange Days, 1995

G.  Orson Welles Bonus: for 10 extra points you can do a research paper on Citizen Kane, following the same format.
Please note: All pages must be typed, 12-point font and double-spaced.  Spelling and grammar count. The title of a movie must be in italics, bold, all caps or underlined: Citizen Kane, Citizen Kane, CITIZEN KANE or Citizen Kane.  Points will be taken off it this rule is not followed. Your choice of reference sources will be a factor in grading your paper.  For example, IMDB will carry less weight than Bright Lights Film Journal.  Hence, academic journals carry more weight than entertainment sources.  Papers that are less than four pages will be graded accordingly. I consider a “page” a piece of paper with at least 75% of it filled with text.

You should identify a problem in our society, discuss that problem in depth (causes, effects, who it affects, etc…). Then, you should discuss a possible solution for that problem.

You should identify a problem in our society, discuss that problem in depth

For the research paper, you will be writing an 8-10 page paper in MLA format that uses at least 6 scholarly sources. You get to choose your topic for this paper. Your paper should be a problem/solution paper. You should identify a problem in our society, discuss that problem in depth (causes, effects, who it affects, etc…). Then, you should discuss a possible solution for that problem. This should be your own solution that you come up with. It should be a realistic solution, and it should be a specific solution, not something vague like, “We all just need to be nicer to each other.”

Your reserach should help support the claims that you are making for your essay.

More details;

Some social issues..

Homosexuality

How to fix the social issue?

Accept people for who they are.. America and other countries are still working on that

Abortions

How to fix the social issue?

Let people decide what they want to do.. Pro life or Pro choice. As long as it’s what’s best, it’s the right decision.

LGBT+ Adoption Rights

How do we solve this?

I heard (not sure of this) that stats show that LGBT couples are more capable of raising a child. They can’t exactly have children. There are a lot of children who need adoption and there are heterosexuals that won’t adopt them. Give the children families.. <3

Euthaniasa

How do we solve this?

I believe that people should be allowed to end their lives and suffering by assisted suicide because, it’s like if you had a child, who had a disease, that has no cure and the child is severely suffering, and the child wants to end the suffering. But you say no. A long, painful death, your child has. Assisted suicide..

Honestly I think the true way to solve this is for everyone in the world to take a walk in someone else’s shoes and realize that they don’t know the entire story or whatever.

The people of Lebanon have experienced an economic crisis for the past several decades. The end of the civil war in 1990 was suppose to be a positive turning point for Lebanon. However, the country fell into deeper turmoil and systematic corruption. Being full Lebanese this topic hits deep with me as I have seen the suffering first hand. This situation in Lebanon has made it nearly impossible to live in forcing many Lebanese people to emigrate.

Because of these complications, I and other Lebanese people started the Future Movement, a non-profitable organization.

Our mission was to harmonize and bring together the Lebanese community to help those in need in Lebanon. My team and I held meetings. We discussed ways to help and donate to Lebanon, and how we could keep our community here in Los Angeles, since Lebanon needed this support.

 

From meeting every week, we held picnics and events to keep this community together, which led to having direct communication with the politicians in Lebanon. One event that really stuck out to me that we put together was a dinner that we held in an auditorium where other people in the organization made speeches speaking on the money that we have raised and also  how we have become noticed here in Southern California. This event stuck out to me because it was a challenge to bring our community into one setting. In the end it brought a lot of awareness to our hometown in Lebanon. Additionally, this leadership experience of bringing together the Lebanese community led to a positive impact on others. Not only did we impact the people of Lebanon, but we attracted others in Southern California to do the same.

 

Assess the risks or remote working and cyber essential and accreditation

This is a paper that is focusing on the assess the risks or remote working and cyber essential and accreditation. The paper also provides additional information to use in the writing of the assignment paper. Below is the assessment description to follow:

Assess the risks or remote working and cyber essential and accreditation

1           Background

Stonebridge Consulting Ltd. (SC) works within an intensely competitive market wherein there are a significant number of IT consulting companies fighting for a relatively small share of the market. The company offers services in 3 main areas:

a.       Firstly, Cybersecurity, including cybersecurity assessments, programme development and maintenance and education of company executives

b.       Secondly, security of Assets and People, including comprehensive security evaluations, integrated risk, vulnerability and threat assessments and equipment and technical infrastructure evaluation; and

c.       Thirdly, business Intelligence, including strategic intelligence, enhanced due diligence and world-wide asset tracing.

SC reported a turnover of £3 million in the financial year 2019-2020.

Assess the risks or remote working and cyber essential and accreditation

There are 5 departments (Consulting – by far the largest, sales, marketing, HR and IT) each led by a director. These departments are located in two offices in the UK, one in Silverstone and another in Cheltenham. Consulting staff along with Sales are based in Cheltenham. The Silverstone office houses the human resources, finance/purchasing and marketing departments. SC outsources its IT to CyHelm, an IT firm out of West London.

You are the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of SC. You report directly to the CIO. Also, you have also been assigned to appoint a new Data Protection Officer, currently interviewing candidates.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the requirement for most organisations to change their modus operandi to remote working has led to a spike of high-profile cyber incidents, resulting in digital services outages which have attracted media attention. SC also has to comply with UK requirement to gain the Cyber Essentials Plus Certification in order to participate in Department of Defence projects. These two issues have led SC’s board of directors to take a highly radical approach to security.

There is now an overwhelming need to assess the risk for these two issues; risks of remote working and risks related to the activities required to be undertaken in order to achieve the Cyber Essential + accreditation. The board has also suggested that the company should establish an information risk management strategy, commencing from a thorough risk assessment.

The members of the board have heard that capability maturity models provide holistic, enterprise level risk assessments. The CIO has asked you to review existing capability maturity models and provide a report outlining the model you believe is more applicable to SC while analysing how it should be applied within the company.
