How can we look at the food as playing a part in the debatable conversations that stem from the food systems that exist in our society?

The goal of this essay is to turn our attention away from what your food actually is (nourishment), to how the food plays a role within larger rhetorical issues in our society. In other words, how is the food more than just food? How can we look at the food as playing a part in the debatable conversations that stem from the food systems that exist in our society? Food has been commodified for our convenience. However, this also takes away nearly all of our control. When you lose this much control, you are at the mercy of the corporations that control the means of production. We have to trust that these corporations have our best interests in mind. But do they?

This is where you are to focus. The essay, in essence, is not about the food itself. It is about any of the larger implications (consequences) that arise because of our society’s dependency on food. Be warned! I do not want a history of your food, or how it is prepared, or some sort of a Wikipedia article. You need to be engaged in debatable conversations. For example, consider the debate based around consumer responsibility. Is it the consumers’ fault if they fall into the trap of fast food? Or do we blame the corporations? This is a larger implication that may be applicable to a lot of your foods. Still, this is just one example of potential food related conversations you can enter. There are many more to explore.

This essay must be 5 pages, double spaced, MLA format. You must include a minimum of three sources

How is trust impacted by social media, technology, and issues of privacy while in online venues?

You have been hired as a consultant for a multinational organization that has a major marketing strategy for its product lines, yet is struggling to maintain its market share. The organization specializes in athletic wear. You have completed an internal assessment of the organization’s business practices and are now required to make suitable recommendations for market and financial recovery.

In your assessment, you discover troubling practices that will definitely affect your recommendations to the executive suite. The organization is under scrutiny for its marketing practices and questionable bait-and-switch strategies. In addition, some of the financials suggest poor internal auditing systems for production and cost of goods sold. There also seem to be some questionable import and export fines. The online market is growing, but with secondary vendors such as pricecut.com and amaprice.com, profit margins are being cut drastically.

You have several questions to consider and address in your presentation. The organization uses labor from some third-world countries where the labor costs are low. Recently, it has been found that there has been a rash of child labor violations in these places. Yet, the organization’s production rate has increased drastically.

Review this week’s Resources to gather information about developing an effective survey protocol.

At the heart of every effective survey is a clear set of questions. Unclear questions give unclear answers. Specifically, when developing a community health assessment survey, you need to know what questions to ask in order to elicit the pertinent information. It is also important that you know how questions should be phrased in order to be understood by the receiver. A survey protocol contains a copy of the survey instrument(s) to be used and describes details of the methods and procedures to be used for data collection and management.

Review this week’s Resources to gather information about developing an effective survey protocol. You then apply this information into creating a survey protocol for your Scholar-Practitioner Project. When developing your survey protocol questions, be sure to consider whether you would use a quantitative, qualitative, or mixed method.

The Assignment (5–6 pages):

Submit a 5- to 6 page protocol for a survey to gather information about the problem in your Scholar-Practitioner Project. The protocol should include the following:

A brief set of objectives for the survey
Describe the population you would sample and explain why.
Describe your data collection method you might use and explain why.
Describe your data analysis method and explain why.
A 1-page (10–20 questions) questionnaire for the survey.

Use the Resources and current literature to support your response.

(Note: The students will not be conducting the survey, only preparing the protocol.)

Whether you think of yourself as an up and coming scientist or not, you use science every day. You will explore how you apply different aspects of science in your daily life in a two part project. In 1,000-words, discuss the following:

The Scientific Method

Each and every day, you are faced with having to make split-second decisions, and the need to solve random problems that you encounter. To reach those decisions and work those problems out you are subconsciously using the scientific method. Apply the steps of the Scientific Method to two situations that could occur in your everyday life. Use the scientific method in the first scenario provided by your instructor to solve the problem at hand.

Please come up with a second detailed scenario on your own, using the categories provided, and follow the same steps in the scientific method to find a resolution.

For both scenarios, be sure to use terminology from the scientific method (hypothesis, experiment, etc.) while describing how you would address each problem.

Scenario 1: Read the course announcements to find out the assigned scenario for your project.

Scenario 1: An unexpected road block/detour while driving to work/school/etc.

Scenario 2: Develop your own detailed problem and apply the scientific method to solve it. Your problem should fall within one of the assigned categories provided by your instructor within the course announcements.

Your final project should be a minimum of 1,000-words written in APA style format. As always, be sure to provide appropriate citations, references, and links to any information you use in this paper.
