Were these Christians making the right choice? Why or why not?

For this assignment, work in your CLCs to develop a matrix that outlines each of Kohlberg’s stages of moral development, and how one would reason the moral developments in each stage.

Students should use the following dilemma:

  1. The emperor Nero heavily persecuted 1st-century Christians. He mandated that any person caught practicing Christianity would be thrown to the lions at the Circus Maximus. Nevertheless, many Christians continued to meet in homes and practice their faith in secret.
  2. Were these Christians making the right choice? Why or why not?

Make sure to include both an affirmative and negative response to each of the six stages, as well as how each was reasoned, according to the corresponding Kohlberg stage.

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected

Are the indicators and their measurements appropriate to the high-risk area?

Write a 2–3 page evaluation of the quality improvement program that you have created. This should be the annual summary of the hypothetical data. Make sure your hypothetical data are credible.

As you may recall from Week 1, your Course Project was to prepare a total quality improvement program, with a focus on one high-risk area. Continuous quality improvement covers many areas. TThis assignment has two parts.

The assignments toward this project that you completed each week can now be assembled into a single instructional document.

Make necessary adjustments to your document so that each segment flows smoothly into the next. Evaluate your project using the criteria given below.

Are the indicators and their measurements appropriate to the high-risk area? Do the indicators capture the risk?
Are the fictional incidents realistic and plausible?
Is the filled chart consistent with the fictional incident?
Is the plan of correction feasible? Will it prevent the occurrence of the incident in future?
How do you know the plan worked? What measures will you use to identify effectiveness?

Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) reasonable and scholarly theories which could explain the mystery.

Choose one (1) of the topics below and develop a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (of at least 250-500 words) which adequately address the topic you have chosen.

Topic Choices

There have been many theories regarding how the pyramids at Giza were constructed. Most experts agree that they were constructed as burial monuments for pharaohs, but “how” these ancient people constructed monuments of such great size without modern machinery is a mystery which is still being debated.
No one can say for certain what happened to the great urban Mayan civilization, but theories abound and include varied possible alternatives to explain the relatively abrupt and mysterious disappearance of the Mayan civilization.
Tutankhamen died young, at approximately eighteen (18) years of age. However, his cause of death has been the subject of quite varied scholarly theories and conclusions. Did he die of an injury, of illness, of murder, or something else?.
Minoan Crete was a major civilization in its time, but several theories have been advanced to explain its demise, including speculations associating it with mythical Atlantis. What were the causes of Minoan Civilization’s decline?
Great Zimbabwe is an enormous complex of structures in East Africa. Since the builders and occupants left no written records, several theories have developed as to the identity of its builders and the functions of the structures. Which theory makes the most sense?
The monumental size and complexity of the Tomb of Shihuangdi is astounding, yet its location and construction details were to be kept secret. What was the emperor’s purpose for such an elaborate, secret burial place?
Other topic choice recommended and approved by the professor and supported by the grading rubric.

Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph paper in which you:

Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) reasonable and scholarly theories which could explain the mystery. Because some theories may sound far-fetched, include the source or promoter of each theory – such as a scientist, a historian, a theologian, etc.
After summarizing at least two (2) scholarly theories, identify one (1) of the theories as the most plausible and provide at least two (2) convincing reasons why the theory you have chosen is the best one to explain the mystery. This will involve some critical reasoning skills on your part.
Use at least two (2) sources plus the class textbook. (Three [3] sources total as the minimum) Note: Wikipedia and other similar Websites do not qualify as academic resources. You are highly encouraged to use the Resource Center tab at the top of your Blackboard page

What additional activities you would add to this project to make it more complete, from a project management viewpoint?

What percent commission does he earn? Would you be able to use the same equation for Tom the next year? Why or why not?

Given that percent can be expressed in decimal form (example: 25% of a value y can be written as 0.25y) answer the following and show your work:

Tom uses the linear model of y = 35,000 + 0.45x to anticipate his salary from completing x amount of dollars’ worth of jobs.

What is Tom’s base salary? What percent commission does he earn? Would you be able to use the same equation for Tom the next year? Why or why not?
