Kelloggs Commercial Risk Events Question

 

I’m working on a risk management writing question and need support to help me learn.

Scan the media over the next week (social media, print media, TV whatever) and come up with five different risk biases as reported in the media or in advertising. Find instances where five different risk biases that are discussed are used to exaggerate or minimize the risk of a situation. For instance, a medical company may use anchoring techniques to make it seem as if the risk of getting a disease or condition is higher and more serious than it actually is. Another example might be a politician or a lobbyist claiming the risk or opportunity of a situation is skewed in order to get a new law passed. Provide a link to each of your five abuses, and briefly explain how that abuse has been manipulated (either consciously or unconsciously).

ISM 4011 Miami Dade College Crowdsourcing Discussion

 

Crowdsourcing is not only used for relatively simple tasks such as designing a Web site or designing a case for a smartphone. Today, it is increasingly being used in more complex designs as well. Precyse Technologies provides supply-chain products and solutions that assist organizations in tracking their inventories using RFID technology. It was having difficulty improving the performance and battery life of a particular RFID device; there were not adequate internal resources to tackle the problem. So, Precyse asked InnoCentive, a crowdsourcing provider, for assistance, believing that crowdsourcing would provide quick access to a worldwide talent pool and a higher return on investment (ROI). Ultimately, the company received more than 300 ideas from global experts for solving its problem. It narrowed the pool down to three finalists, from which a winner was chosen. The whole process took approximately four months, and Precyse estimated that it saved the company $250,000.

Answer the following questions:

  1. What are some typical applications of crowdsourcing?
  2. What are some advantages of crowdsourcing?
  3. How could crowd-sourcing reduce the systems design cost?
  4. Are there certain problems you would not want to use crowdsourcing to solve?

DeVry Physician Assistants and Their Role in Primary Care Bibliography

 

Our discussion this week brings us to the next step in preparation for your upcoming Informative Speech. In collaboration with your instructor and peers, you will be locating scholarly sources of research that you can use to support your topic and cite within your preparation outline. Be sure to read this week’s lesson about supporting your presentation with research.

You will prepare and share an annotated bibliography here in the discussion. You will also provide feedback on two classmates’ annotated bibliographies and receive feedback from your instructor and peers.

What is an annotated bibliography? An annotated bibliography is a list of citations of books, articles, and documents that may possibly be used for your speech. Each citation is followed by a descriptive and evaluative paragraph—the annotation. The purpose of the annotation is to explain the relevance, accuracy, and quality of the sources.

Directions: Write an annotated bibliography for three scholarly sources in preparation for your Week 5 Informative Speech. Document the sources using APA seventh edition format. Alphabetize by author last name, double-space, and use the hanging indentation style as shown in the Week 3 Sample Annotated Bibliography (Links to an external site.).

As early in the week as possible, but no later than Wednesday, discuss the process you followed in locating sources that will be useful for your Informative Speech topic. If you are having any challenges locating materials, describe what support you need from your peers and instructor. We will do our best to assist.

Deliverable by Friday this week: Attach your Annotated Bibliography to your discussion post as a Microsoft Word file (not a PDF or a MAC .pages file) to the discussion no later than Friday this week.

  1. Organize the three sources in alphabetical order by author last name. Cite the book, article, or document using APA seventh edition style. Note in the Sample Annotated Bibliography the use of hanging indent style and double-spacing for the citations and how the annotations are aligned with hanging indent.
  2. Write an annotation for each source that summarizes the central theme and scope of the book or article, gives information about the author, and tells how you might use this information in your speech for each of the three sources.
    • Paragraph 1: First, summarize the source. This is the annotation. Be sure to write the summary in your own words and not copy from the article abstract to avoid plagiarism. Second, evaluate the authority or background of the author. What makes them an authority or expert on this subject? You may have to search beyond the article to find out more about your author.
    • Paragraph 2: Explain specifically how this work might be used in your speech. For example, it would be good for background, good for discussion of different viewpoints (state what they are), good for valuable facts and statistics, a good summary to help with your conclusion, good quotations from experts in the field, and so forth.
