Design a short self – completion questionnaire on a topic in the social sciences

This paper has two sections:

First section
A) Design a short self – completion questionnaire on a topic in the social sciences.

The questionnaire should consist of between 15 and 20 questions that address a topic in the social sciences. It should be completed as a word document. Please focus on only one topic and develop appropriate questions to address this.

Your questionnaire should consist of only closed questions. The questionnaire should also include the collection of socio-demographic data such as gender, age etc. Make sure the wording of the questions is clear and not open to misinterpretation.

In addition to considering the clarity of the questions it is important to ensure that the questionnaire is ordered appropriately, and that you very briefly introduce the focus of the questionnaire.

Please assume that the questionnaire is being completed by someone who has already agreed to complete the questionnaire and to the ethical considerations. As such these aspects don’t need to be discussed here. However, at the start of the questionnaire you should provide a brief statement regarding the focus of the questionnaire. This should only be a couple of lines or so.

It is worth noting that you always need to be clear about how you want respondents to indicate their replies when answering closed-ended questions. For instance, are they supposed to place a tick next to, circle around, or line underneath the appropriate answer, or are they supposed to delete inappropriate answers? Decide whether to employ any filter questions and ensure instructions are clear. Consider whether more than one response can be used.

Second section

B) Provide an 800-word reflection on developing the questionnaire
Accompanying the questionnaire (at the end of it, in the same document) provide an 800-word reflection on the process of developing the questionnaire. This should include a discussion of:

The process of developing the questions including any changes you made to the questions as a result of piloting the questionnaire and why. You should only briefly explain why the questions were chosen to address the focus of your research. These should largely be self-explanatory to the person completing the questionnaire.

The decision-making in relation to the presentation of the questionnaire and how it is structured. This may include the question order, the types of questions employed (such as Likert scales) and why these were chosen, and the vertical or horizontal presentation of the questions, whether filter questions are employed and whether don’t know questions were used.
In order to produce this reflection, you should draw on methods literature which helped to inform your decision-making when developing the questionnaire. You should provide a list of references like in an essay.
This reflection does not need an introduction and conclusion like an essay.
Please Make sure you use these two sources that I have put below but make sure you also use other sources that you find

Explain Singer’s Strong and Moderate Moral Principles

Topic : Peter Singer on Charity
Last summer, Prof. Rude and his family spent $2,000 to go on a vacation in Chile. Instead of booking the trip, he could have donated that money to a charity that likely would have saved a child’s life. According to Peter Singer, Prof. Rude did something morally wrong: he should have donated the money instead of going on vacation.
Part 1. Explain how Peter Singer would argue for this conclusion. • In the process of explaining your argument, make sure to explain Singer’s Strong and Moderate Moral Principles. Explain how the two principles differ by giving a case in which they issue different verdicts (one principle says an action is wrong and another says an action is not wrong). And explain which of the two principles Singer’s argument depends on.
Part 2. Give one or two of the strongest objections you can think of against Peter Singer’s conclusion. How would Singer respond? Is the reply convincing? • At least one of the objections you consider should be new – it should not be from the lecture.

Which of the three essays most accurately explains the true source of our culture’s alienation from nature?

Prior to beginning work on this , review the articles by Lynn White, Tu Weiming, as well as the essay by William Cronon
PROMPT:
White, Weiming, and Cronon each critique forms of anthropocentrism, but they do so for somewhat different reasons. White focuses on Medieval Christianity, Weiming on the Enlightenment, and Cronon on Romanticism. One way to see the difference between their critiques is to ask, “What does
each author seem to be proposing as a solution to our current environmental crisis, and what does that solution imply about the author’s diagnosis of the original source of our crisis?” The reason these questions are linked is that you can’t solve a problem until you know what the cause is. While these authors all seem to blame anthropocentrism for part of the problem, their proposed solutions differ, which means that their critiques of anthropocentrism must differ in some way as well. This week we will work through these critiques together. After we have worked together to summarize how each author explains the ideological origin of our current environmental crisis, we will evaluate those positions in subsequent posts. Which of the three essays most accurately explains the true source of our culture’s alienation from nature?

Explain WHY it is important that event designers understand how to create authenticity

Assessment Details

Individual Essay – ‘Exploring the Role of Authenticity in Strategic Event Design’

In this module, we are focusing on the strategic design of business events to influence the cognitive, affective and behavioural impacts of attendees for optimal organisational outcomes. Cognitive impacts help attendees to better understand their organisation’s strategy, new initiative or product (internal) or to clarify and build brand awareness (external). Affective impacts are emotional impacts which will affect how attendees (both internal and external to the organisation) feel and identify with the brand or the company. Behavioural impacts change attendees’ behaviour towards a brand/company. For internal consumers/employees, behavioural impacts could be that they become more productive, more engaged and more loyal to the company. For consumers, behavioural impacts could be that they purchase more products from the brand and advocate or speak positively about the brand to others.

In both the experience design and strategic event design literature, authenticity is identified as a key influencing antecedent of positive event outcomes, both in terms of creating experience ‘intensity’ for the attendee and for the hosting organisation. In other words, if the event experience feels authentic to attendees, they are more likely to demonstrate positive cognitive, affective and behavioral impacts from the event, over time, thereby benefitting the host organisation in terms of event outcomes.

Using the academic and industry literature, write a 3,000 word essay discussing how the creation of authenticity is being used as a principle design aim in the creation of business events.

The essay will follow this structure:
Introduction:
 Describe the structure, content and purpose of your essay. The purpose of your essay is to discuss and assess how the creation of authenticity is being used as a principle design aim in the creation of corporate events.
 Provide a definition for authenticity, using the academic and industry literature to highlight key understandings of this objective.
 Explain WHY it is important that event designers understand how to create authenticity.
 Indicate that the key outcome of your synthesis of the available literature will be to form conclusions and make recommendations about how authenticity can be achieved in event design, across different types of corporate events.

Main Body: Authenticity as a Design Principle – Theoretical and Practical Implications
 Consider how authenticity is being described in the academic and industry literature in relation to event design and different types of corporate events. To get you started, please see:
1. Pg. 144 in Berridge, G. (2007). Events Design and Experience. Oxford: Elsevier.
2. Pg. 1 Concept 1 in Quinn, B. (2013). Key Concepts in Event Management. London: Sage.
3. “With a specific focus on the audience, Brown and Hutton (2013) identify three pillars of design – to capture the audience, to provide the foundation for an optimal experience and to deliver the event objectives – but they also highlight the importance of additional principles such as emotions, authenticity and surprise amongst others” (p. 22, Orefice, 2018).
4. You will notice in your reading of the literature, that authenticity is linked with many aspects of event design. Examples below:
1. These interactions represent so-called ‘moments of truth’ as they shape consumer’s overall perception of the event (Evans, 2015).
Evans, N., (2015). Strategic Management for Tourism, Hospitality and Events. London: Taylor and Francis.
2. See C&IT Incentive Travel Report 2017 for authenticity in incentive events. “There is a movement towards experiences and authenticity, it’s about going somewhere and ensuring you are immersed in the local culture.”

3. Pg. 332 in Bladen at al. (2018) in reference to destination and venue selection for corporate events –
“Increasingly, the authenticity and uniqueness of a destination plays an important role in the process of choosing a destination for an event that will give delegates the ‘Wow effect’…….Authenticity and uniqueness are not only a crucial aspect of the destination, but also of the venue where an event will take place.”

5. You should be able to find discussions of authenticity when exploring themes of Value Creation, Co-Creation, Storytelling and Narrative, Destination Selection, Influencer Marketing, the creation of Personas (see Event Audiences), Emotions, Intensity of Experience, Branding Theory, level of participant immersion or participation, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), meaningful experiences, memorable (affective impacts) experiences, etc. Choose the few themes that interest you most and provide illustrative examples from industry case studies to reinforce your key arguments where possible.

 Throughout your exploration of this topic, highlight key aspects of the pursuit, achievement and outcomes of authenticity in strategic event experience design. Reinforce key arguments about WHY it is important that event designers understand how to create authenticity, why attendees must have authentic experiences, and how organisations benefit from hosting events which are perceived to be authentic (three distinct perspectives here).
 Please ensure that your essay has a strong academic foundation including theory, empirical evidence and references. If you use material from case studies or company websites remember that these need to be properly quoted and referenced just like all other materials.
Conclusions
 Provide a summary of your key findings related to the pursuit, achievement and outcomes of authenticity in relation to strategic corporate event design, including key understandings of how to define an authentic experience or encounter.

write a Letter to the Editor of the local paper that includes an evaluation of the issues that would be the focus on need for quality improvement

Improving Population Health—Letter to the Editor

There are mechanisms in place that are used to improve population health, including (1) health statuses and outcomes, (2) determinant factors, and (3) interventions that address determinant factors and improve outcomes (Joshi et al., 2014 p. 549). How health care is provided and how it can be improved is the focus of this assignment, which lends itself to a perfect opportunity for you to put your analysis skills into practice. The Learning Resources section this week provides you with data from the patient experience of care that also sheds light on expectations that have and have not been met. The Healthy People 2030 data provides measurements and goals for health care into the future, along with reasons for achieving those goals.
For this Assignment, you will read a scenario, analyze an existing problem using the data/resources provided, and make recommendations to address the issues.

To prepare:

Review all Learning Resources for the week that relate to improving population health.
https://health.gov/healthypeople/tools-action/browse-evidence-based-resources/evidence-based-resources
https://hcahpsonline.org/en/facts/

The Assignment:
Read the following scenario:
The community of Springfield (population approximately 100,000) is made up of hardworking, mostly older, factory laborers who contributed to both the city and county growth from the late 1950s through early 2005. Since the plant closed, many of the former workers have little to look forward to. There are few jobs available, and they are now aging; most are 60 years of age or older.
The Memorial Hospital has been in existence since the mid-1950s and has several primary care physicians and nurse practitioners, a couple of general surgeons, and one cardiologist, but no cardiac surgeons.
Many nurses are recruited from the nearby community college, and the hospital serves as the facility for clinical rounds in their education.
The community is pretty sedentary, with the exception of an occasional game of horseshoes. Cigarette smoking is prominent.
Serious concerns surround the continued existence of the hospital because many residents seek and obtain health care services elsewhere.
Compare the population of this city to other problem areas using the Healthy People sources. The town’s population is approximately 100,000, making the comparison straightforward.

From this week’s Learning Resources, write a 2-page Letter to the Editor of the local paper that includes:
• An evaluation of the issues that would be the focus on need for quality improvement
• An analysis of existing problems/issues based on data/resources provided
• 2 or 3 recommended strategies to address each quality improvement issue

Explain how these symptoms are affecting the client’s daily functioning.

Justify a chosen treatment approach for this client with supporting research.

briefly describe how the person you interviewed responded to the Heinz dilemma

For this discussion you should begin by interviewing an older child or teenager (if you don’t have access to a person in this age range, you can work with an adult) about Kohlberg’s “Heinz & the Drug” dilemma found on pages 389 & 90 in Levine & Munsch. Specifically, read the dilemma to the person you are interviewing and carefully record his/her response. Then using the chart on page 390 and the discussion on pages 389 to 391, determine what level the response corresponds to.
In your discussion post, (1) briefly describe how the person you interviewed responded to the Heinz dilemma; (2) Discuss how you rated this response and why and (3) Explain whether you feel Kohlberg’s approach is an accurate way to measure moral judgment and why. Please do not use the real name of the person you interviewed in your response. Instead use a general description such as “For this assignment, I interviewed an 11 year-old female about the Heinz dilemma.
