A paper that is 10-12 pages, double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, 1-inch margins all around, left-justified. The 10-12 pages must be pages of actual content. Only a limited number of images or graphics will be allowed as content.

Sources should be mostly from legitimate, peer-reviewed works as well as government sources (gray literature).

APA Style Writing Format: This class will utilize the American Psychological Association (APA) writing format: The following link provides guidance and you are always welcome to ask for my guidance and direction on how to write effectively in the APA style: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_style_introduction.html

Discussion Participation via Canvas

Fifty percent (50%) of your total grade for the course comes from Graded Discussions and participation. All Graded Discussion should be done in Word (or thoroughly reviewed) before submitting them into Canvas. This allows you to review your work in advance, which is an important technique for improving your writing skills. Manage your time effectively and space your work throughout the entire week:

1. Conduct active readings early in the week.
2. Begin your discussion posting soon after.
3. Look for sources to supplement your work, your responses, and your perspectives.
4. Integrate the sources.
5. Refine your work and post.

The best responses will tend to provide a balance of breadth and depth as well as appropriately formed and referenced perspectives.

Graded Discussions are a large component of this class (50%), so they require your attention throughout the entire semester. Below are guidelines and suggestions for the successful submission of Graded Discussions.

Graded Discussion Structure: Your initial posting must be well constructed and thought out … you will not be able to see other student’s posts until you make your initial post first. You then have until the assigned Module due date to make at least two thoughtful responses to other student’s posts. See the Graded Discussion Rubric for details.

Graded Discussion Deadlines and Guidance: The instructor will deduct points for initial and reply postings that do not meet the deadline dates. After the Graded Discussion Board closes for the week, no posts will be permitted and the student will receive a score based on the work submitted. If there are mitigating circumstances, the Instructor may allow the student to submit alternate work.

The following are examples of responses to another student one might make to further the understanding and add to the learning community HSEM-301 is trying to establish:
• Identify a question or a problem in another student’s writing
• Pose a solution
• Clarify a confusion
• Add to the information contained in the original posting
• Bring in outside information to support an argument (document or cite the information)
• Offer an alternative solution or interpretation
• Pose a question that furthers the discussion
• Discuss the implications of a theory, idea, etc.
• Provide criticism of a theory, concept, etc.
• Point out connections among various ideas
• Move the discussion to a deeper level
• Discuss how one’s own views have changed
• Discuss how one has gained new insight
• Discuss any value implications
• Propose avenues for further research on the topic

Coca Cola Building – Real Estate as an Intangible and Tangible Asset Example

About the Archive This is a digitized version of an article from The Times’s print archive, before the start of online publication in 1996. To preserve these articles as they originally appeared, The Times does not alter, edit or update them.

The Coca-Cola Company said that it had purchased the leasehold to the New York City headquarters building of Columbia Pictures Industries from 711 Fifth Avenue Associates for an undisclosed amount. Columbia Pictures, a major tenant in the midtown Manhattan building, is a subsidiary of the Coca-Cola Company.
The Atlanta-based diversified soft drink company said that Tri-Star Pictures, its joint venture with CBS Inc. and Home Box Office Inc., would be a tenant in the building. Columbia Pictures previously owned the office building at 711 Fifth Avenue and sold it in 1977 for $14 million to the real estate developer Larry Silverstein. The sale of the property to Coca-Cola has been estimated at $57 million, including the assumption of an $11.5 million mortgage.
