SUPPLY AND DEMAND
[Pin It]
For this assignment you will find a news article (not a blog, not Wikipedia, not an opinion article, a news article) that describes a change in supply, demand or both in a real world market. The learning objective is to understand how supply and demand impacts markets and prices.
Find a news article on the Internet that describes a shift in the supply curve or in the demand curve. The article must be recent (within the last six months), and MUST NOT be from an encyclopedia or reference website that discusses demand and supply. DO NOT use blogs. Use well established business web sites or industry specific web sites.
The best articles are about changes in the price and/or sales of a particular product. You then have the opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of supply and demand shifts as you explain the changes in price and quantity experienced by the product you choose.
Summarize the article. (Do not quote the article, but explain it as if you were telling someone about it. If you do use direct quotes or paraphrases, remember that citations and references are required.)
Explain which graph in our collection – A, B, C, or D – illustrates the shift that you identify by describing the change in price and the change in equilibrium quantity (remember the difference between a change in quantity and a change in the position of the curve – these are described in the documents linked above).
Some articles may describe a situation where both curves shift. This is not common but it is possible.
Do use paragraphs in your post. And do remain focused on what is in the article.
Provide a full URL link to the article along with an APA-formatted reference to the article at the bottom of your submission.
Important: Do not choose an article discussing Macroeconomic issues: Inflation, unemployment, trade deficit, government budget deficit, etc

The term “change management” is used in a variety of ways (e.g., organizational change management, strategic change management, etc.).

Make sure you are using credible sources in your discussions and assignments. Scholarly journals are the preferred source of credible/quality references. These consist of peer-reviewed articles published in academic journals related to the field, which are found via our Library. Websites such as Investopedia, ask.com, answers.com, or dictionary-type of websites limit the insight to the topics. Wikipedia is not acceptable as it is not a reliable, credible source of reference. The purpose is to bring in new information and how does it apply to our topic from a real-world perspective, instead of extending on definitions that are found in the book.

Do you believe great leaders are born or made? Pick a side on the nature vs. nurture debate of this question. Write a 3-5 page paper providing an argument to support one side of the debate about how good leaders come to be leaders.
If you believe that great leaders are “born,” provide an example of a “natural” leader. If you believe that great leaders are “made,” provide an example of someone who turned him or herself into a leader.
Also, describe the role you feel personality plays in determining whether an individual is a great leader or not.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion please read the Hurley (2013) Trait vs. Fate and Weaver, et al. (2004) Epigenetic Programming by Maternal Behavior articles and review the Webster “The Great Rat Mother Switcheroo” online article. The recommended resources for this week also provide more information on these topics.
In this week’s required resources, we have learned that while our genes have a lot to say about who we are, environmental factors, particularly parental behavior, can shape the behavior of offspring on a biochemical level. Using the assigned Hurley and Weaver et al. articles, briefly describe the research that has been done with rat mothers to illustrate this phenomenon. In your initial post of a minimum of 350 words, explain the implications of the research on parental behavior and environmental factors as they relate to human personality development. Describe how this research data might be used to explain unhealthy personality traits. Describe how the emerging field of epigenetics is impacting the longstanding nature vs nurture paradigm. Be sure to cite the Hurley and Weaver, et al. articles in your initial post.
Guided Response: Respond in a substantive way to at least two of your peers. Choose at least one point from your peer’s response that impacted your thinking on this subject, and explain why and how that particular comment either resonated with you or caused you to think in a different way. Compare the implications for human personality development identified by your peers to those you identified, and suggest alternative conclusions where appropriate. Challenge ideas with which you disagree and support your arguments.
Choose two print advertisements, cartoons, or television commercials that are complex and interesting enough to write a visual rhetorical analysis. A visual rhetorical analysis is similar to a text analysis. For example, you need to explain in your introduction the creator/author, purpose, target audience and the context. Also, briefly Describe the visual documents; however, you will give a much more detailed description in the body paragraphs as well as visual design features. Include a thesis and visual documents. Cite all sources using MLA style. (750-1000 words)
