Education Policy Brief

Overview
The purpose of this assignment is to apply the May, Can, Should model through analysis of a specific education policy. An effective tool for finding this legislation is through www.govtrack.us and the cost of the legislation through the Congressional Budget Office at www.cbo.gov.

Instructions
For the analysis paper, this is best done in the following manner:

May
Application of the Biblical principles – when discussing the topic of the week, make sure to apply the Biblical principles discussed in question 1 of the Synthesis paper to the specific policy that you’re discussing. How does it meet natural law, inalienable rights, federalism, etc.?
Constitutional authority – what is the Constitutional authority for the federal government to get involved? Avoid the use of the General Welfare clause as it becomes a catch-all for anything that a politician wants to get passed.

Can
Political feasibility – what is the likelihood that the policy will become law? What is the political and social support for the policy?
Financial feasibility – what is the policy expected to do to the national debt or spending? For example, the new COVID stimulus just put us another $2 trillion in debt but was widely supported by both politicians and the public.
Practical feasibility – what are the logistical resources needed for implementation (buildings, personnel, new programs, etc.) and what are the steps for implementation (ex; the Affordable Care Act needed functional websites in order to be implemented, the lack of these created severe problems with implementation).

Should
Relate this back to specific Biblical and Constitutional authorities and discuss whether or not the policy should be supported based on this and the feasibility of implementation.
The goal of this is to critically analyze an education policy to objectively determine if the federal government should be legitimately involved in the policy being discussed and if the policy is right for the country.

You are expected to submit a 1 1/2–2-page paper (not including the title page, abstract, and reference page) in current APA format in which the May-Can-Should model is applied in the context of the policy focus. Be certain to emphasize a focused analysis of a particular federal policy (either already implemented or proposed) chosen from the policy concentration area for the assigned module

Learning-objectives:
Explain and discuss the characteristics of logistics clusters using relevant theory
Identify and discuss logistics actors and activities of logistics clusters and how they relate to global supply chains
Explain and discuss the role of networks among logistics cluster actors for supply chain efficiency
Identify and characterize the main logistics clusters in Europe and globally
Analyze a Danish logistics cluster and make comparisons to Vancouver and Shenzhen

Formalia
You are assisting the manager of an international logistics company that is reviewing different locations in Northern Europe for setting up an important customer’s supply chain.

You are supposed to come up with a report that should support her proposal for the customer. The report should take the point of departure in the logistics company’s own organizational set-up and capabilities.

The manager has recently heard about the topic of logistics clusters and wants you to emphasize this aspect in the design of a global supply chain in the review report.

The manager is an academic herself and wants theory and references in your report so that she can be sure that your analysis is sound and well grounded. She also wants a proper problem statement, research question(s) and research design followed by the analysis and concluded with the answer(s) to the research question(s).

The specific questions that the report should address are the following:
What is your advice on where to locate the logistics and supply chain activities of the company? Here she wants a comparison of two potential clusters where she is especially interested in what Denmark has to offer.
How do the selected clusters compare to main European logistics clusters?
What benefits will there be from locating the activities in a logistics cluster? What are the prerequisites from capturing these benefits? (Network theory)
How does the Øresund/Greater Copenhagen logistics cluster differentiate from the logistics clusters in Vancouver and Shenzhen?
Your manager would like you to use as much as possible from the curriculum of the Logistics Cluster course, but also recommends you to search for additional information about the selected and mentioned clusters on the Internet. She expects the main emphasis on your answers to questions 1, 2 and 3 but in the end, she will make an overall assessment of the quality of the report. You can freely choose type of logistics company and/or intermediary, customer and the products your manager should help the customer handle.

Selected:
Coyote Logistics

Additional Questions to work with:
How do SCI strategies influence LCB?
How does proximity influence LCB?
How do value added logistics services (VALS) influence LCB?”
How does logistics infrastructure investment influence LCB?

10. Carmina Burana: by Carl Orff. This is not an opera! This piece is part of a 90-minute work for choir and orchestra. Sometimes ballet companies dance to it and sometimes it is a music play format. The song, “In the Tavern” certainly is a drinking song. Please watch the video from timestamp 35:44 to 38:50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKc47r6_lFo&t=3271s
