Media Literacy in the Digital Age

Directions:

Select a social issue or ethical dilemma in the news. Find two recent articles from two different types of media sources on the issue. In your introduction, for both of your examples, be sure to carefully identify what types of sources you are analyzing (news story, editorial, commentary), the name of the media company, and the date and author. Then, answer the following questions:

  • What assumptions do you make about these articles before reading them? How is your mind already “at work”?
  • What is the main claim and/or point of view expressed (if there is one) by the article? Is the article objectively written? Be careful here – if the article is an editorial opinion, note that the purpose of this type of article is very different from that of a news story. If you are analyzing an editorial, is the argument presented logically?
  • Apply evaluative criteria to your analysis. Is there a particular audience that the article is targeting? Is there an appeal to sensationalism? Can you discern a vested ideological perspective?
  • What is a peer-reviewed source? What peer-reviewed sources did you find that helped in thinking critically about your issue?

Requirements:

 

  • Cite all claims and ideas using scholarly sources.
  • Include at least two scholarly sources
  • Your paper should be 4-5 pages in length (not including the title page and reference page).
  • Format your paper according to APA (7th edition) format

Requirements: 4-5 pages

Organizational Change and Culture Project

Organizational Change and Culture Project

Change is part of the game. Leaders must set the vision and navigate of the challenges of implementing change. Effective leadership requires you to harness both the minds and hearts of employees to enable change to occur and take root in the company’s culture. For this assignment, you will identify one change management need within your company or from a company you previously worked for. You will create a plan for a change initiative, describing it in your Business Brief and presenting it in your Change Vision Video. Think of your Business Brief as a summary document that could be used as a reference by the Board of Directors and think of your Change Vision Video as your pitch to the Board members to gain their support for your initiative.

Business Brief

(2–3 pages) Identify a needed organizational change and your perceived employee resistance to the change. Then utilize the first six (6) elements of Kotter’s eight-stage framework to create your plan for the change initiative. Write a Business Brief that summarizes your change initiative plan in 2 to 3 pages. It should be written in a professional format and include a cover page, as detailed in the Formatting Requirements section below. Use the prompts below to guide you:

1. Provide a brief background of the company and its culture.

2. Identify the problem you want to address and explain why it is important.

3. Describe your change initiative according to Steps 1 through 6 of Kotter’s eight-stage framework. Provide answers to each of the following questions to create this description:

Woman of Color

Woman of Color

400 word response

In response to the first few readings on “women of color” and intersectionality

1) Discuss: What does it mean to be a “woman of color”?

2) Discuss: What is intersectionality? (use Crenshaw from the video) Why is intersectionality an essential term for understanding the experiences of women of color?

3): Provide an example of an issue affecting women and, using the term “intersectionality,” discusses how women of color experience this issue differently from white women. And then respond:

Why is intersectionality necessary for understanding women of color experiences with this issue?

Requirements: 400 words   |

Here is the info needed for the page:)

This week we are going to start reading about Intersectionality, which is a major tool of analysis that we use in WOC feminisms. These first two weeks you will be referring back to the entire semester and I will be expecting you to gain mastery of these terms and ideas by the end of the semester in your final paper.

I want you to take notice of how Nash’s version of Intersectionality builds upon Crenshaw’s origin of the theory.

What is different?

I also want you to take note that the origin of this theory is in Black Feminism. Why is this important? We know women of color’s labor is always erased. We will dive further into issues such as colorism in the WOC community a bit later, but for now I just want you to take note that this theory came from Black women.

Intersectionality will be the major tool of analysis that you will be using throughout the semester. What does this mean? It means we will be using this theory as if it were a pair of glasses and we will see the world through these glasses. In the case of WOC feminisms, what we are looking for is understanding privilege, power, and oppression.

Specific to this course, we will be looking primarily at how gender and race impact the lived experiences of women of color. We will also get to add in other variables throughout the semester, such as being LGBTQ+, disabled, fat, transgender, a mother, and so on.
