Which types of discrimination are prohibited under the Act?

Age Discrimination in Employment Act

This assignment will help you understand the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967.

The Age Discrimination in Employment Act prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of age for anyone over the age of 40. This kind of legislation, like other types of anti-discriminatory legislation, will not end all discrimination. However, such laws clearly state society’s values.

Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research about the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. Based on your research, create a 4- to 5-page paper in a Microsoft Word document that includes answers to the following questions:

Which demographic groups are protected by this Act?
Which types of discrimination are prohibited under the Act?
Is the Act still relevant for seniors today? If yes, how? If not, why not? Provide examples.
What amendments are required to the Act as more baby boomers age?
Has this Act affected any of the minority groups in US? If no, why not? If yes, how?

Support your responses with examples.

Discuss the location, benefits, and potential effects of one of these renewable energy sources.

This module has shown us the many ways we abuse our ocean. Let’s end this course on a positive and hopeful note!

With 70% of the earth’s surface covered by water, a great amount of energy can be produced by placing turbines at strategic locations under strong currents. This method of generating electric power is called hydro-kinetic power generation. Therefore, much potential energy can be derived from the oceans (or rivers of the world) from waves, tides, currents, and even winds. This clean, renewable energy can offer a potential solution to our dependency upon fossil fuels for energy.

Respond to the following:

Research alternative energy projects which are currently being utilized in the world, paying special attention to projects in the United States.
Discuss the location, benefits, and potential effects of one of these renewable energy sources.

Remember, if you provide a quote or information from a source (e.g., your textbook or the Internet), you must include the correct citation and reference in APA style.

If you want to succeed in the online discussion boards, here are a few things to keep in mind: make your post engaging, interesting, and long enough to completely cover the material. It is helpful to think of the post as more of a mini-paper than a simple contribution to a discussion.

Once you have posted your own discussion response, you are required to comment substantially on the posts of at least two of your classmates. You can agree or disagree with their posts; however, you must explain why you have chosen to do so. In addition, please read the feedback to your own major postings and reply to it throughout the module
