  • WRITE AS IF YOU HAVE INTERVIEWED AN ELDERLY PERSON AND CONNECT WHAT THEY SAY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE “LEARNED” FROM the book American Yawp. It should not take more than 3 hours.
  • interview an elderly family member or friend about a major historical event, organization, or issue (For 2020 courses this may be Civil Rights Movement, Women’s Movement, Vietnam War, Labor Unions/workers rights, the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl). The event must be related to American History and within the scope of our class.
  • Craft a list of questions beforehand to help guide you.
  • The goal is to ask your interviewee what they know about a past event or issue, where they got that information—personal experience? News outlet? Word of mouth? Family history? What was their experience? Or are they recalling stories passed down through generations?
  • In a 3-4 page paper report on what your narrator discussed. Use the textbook, assigned readings, and class discussions to assess and evaluate the narrative told by the narrator. Do their memories uphold or contradict what you’ve learned or read in class? How can you account for any discrepancies, if they exist? What types of personal factors shape what people believe to be true about the past and their experiences? For example, does race, class, gender, economic status, geographic location or residence, or sexual orientation influence their narrative of the past. Where did they learn what they know about the past? For example, if you interview your grandmother about the 1960s and the Vietnam War, where did she get her information from—Television? https://aceyourcoursework.com/post-a-question/Newspapers? Friends who may have served in the Vietnam War?

Format: Your report should be double-spaced, 12 point font, times new roman, 1 inch margins. Chicago style citations.

For this Assignment, you will analyze observational data and chart the data of 3 different high school students. You will visually interpret the data and write a paper of your interpretation that includes an explanation of the data and results and conclusions from your analysis.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Learning Resources for this week, including the required weekly media programs, to gain an understanding of methods for visually analyzing data. Note: It will be important for you to also take the time to review all of the required media programs for this week prior to completing this Discussion.
  • As you review the Learning Resources, specifically focus on the data from the Assignment Data Excel spreadsheet and consider both the raw data and the charted data.
  • Consider the following scenario for this Assignment:

A significant percentage of US students are not reaching expected proficiency in mathematics content. As a response, educators have been urged to use more evidence-based practices; however, due to the lack of readily available strategies these efforts have been thwarted. In related fields video modeling (VM) has been successful in teaching behavioral skills through edited video clips that allow target populations to observe models successfully performing featured tasks. Stemming from Bandura’s social learning theory, the intent of VM is to increase the frequency of the modeled behavior through observational learning. The purpose of this research was to use a multiple baseline, across-participants design that featured varying baseline duration for each participant to examine the impact of VM on the math achievement of high school students. The sample included three students, ages 16-17. Student 1 had five baseline sessions, five treatment sessions, and five maintenance sessions. Student 2 had 10 baseline sessions, five treatment sessions, and five maintenance sessions. Student 3 had 13 baseline sessions, five treatment sessions, and five maintenance sessions. The dependent variable was a 10 item mathematics probe (Possible range 0-10).

Assignment (2–3 pages):

Write an analysis of the data and include the following in yourpaper:

  • Create a “Results” section as a heading to your paper.
  • Using visual analysis, interpret the data and draw any inferences as suggested by the data in the spreadsheet pertaining to each individual student. Use the criteria provided by Dr. Little in this week’s Visual Analysis & Interpretation media program (Changes in magnitude {mean & level}, changes in trend, changes in latency, & PND).
  • Write up your results and conclusions.

Support your Assignment by citing all resources in APA style, including those in the Learning Resources

Requirements: Two to three pages

I have attached the required readings including the mentioned media transcript, please feel free to use any extra scholarly resources, however, please make sure to cite it APA7.

Generally, traditional pay structures involve annual salary or hourly rates with raises based on seniority or merit. This week, you review some alternative approaches, including incentive pay and person-focused pay. Your assessment of incentive-based pay includes individual incentive plans, group incentive plans, and company-wide incentive plans.

Although incentive-based pay is linked to performance, person-focused plans focus on competencies. Martocchio (2020) states that “a competency refers to an individual’s capability to orchestrate and apply combinations of knowledge and skills consistently over time to perform work successfully in the required work situations” (p. 111).

Today your manager, Megan, calls you in for a progress report and suggests you research incentive-based pay and person-focused plans. You explain that you are taking a strategic approach and that a total rewards plan is not a “one size fits all” concept. Your assure her your analysis will include the positives and negatives of each approach, as well as recommendations for evaluation, in the creation of the final proposal.

Does incentive pay work? Provide your analysis as you respond to the following:

Provide at least two examples (types of jobs) where individual incentive might be appropriate.

Provide at least two examples (types of jobs) where group incentive might be appropriate.

Your initial post should be succinct, of at least 150 words, and demonstrate critical analysis and precision in writing. Evaluate the week’s materials and reference relevant trade publications and scholarly literature.

Requirements: 150
