MODULE SUMMATIVE EVALUATION TASK

Highschool Math

There is a growing need for skilled labour in Ontario. The ability to budget allows workers with their own companies to maximize their income.

Using Internet research, prepare a budget of possible expenses and income to consider for a worker of your choice. Present the content of the mathematical data in the form of tables of values, graphs, etc., and highlight the trends in the resulting data. For these data, note the mathematical concepts associated with them (e.g., maximum values, minimum values, trends/slopes, type of functions). Using the mathematical concepts under consideration, present the results of your work in an infographic.

Journal Question:

As you prepare to end this course with this final journal, reflect on and summarize the key lessons in this unit. Make sure you include evidence that you read the lecture notes and readings.

Answer this question: What is the romance myth and summarize Professor Essig’s argument? How does it relate to Stepping Off the Relationship escalator?

Relate the key lessons of the two readings together, connecting with the concepts from the notes, including connecting it to Audre Lorde’s “the erotic,” queer theory, kink, keeping in mind the disclaimer at the end of the notes.

What responsibility does the HR manager have for paying equally qualified employees? If the manager pays the female less, would you characterize him as sexist? Is this decision unfair workplace discrimination?

/in /by

Corporate Governance, Ethics, and Responsibility

Case, HR decision

At your company, imagine an HR manager who is hiring two employees. Assume that the top two candidates, one male and one female, are equally qualified and that the HR manager wishes to hire both. Assume that the HR manager himself will get evaluated, in part, by how well he controls compensation expenses. As a result, he has both a professional and personal responsibility to pay the lowest salary that is necessary to get the candidate to accept the position. At the last interview, the manager asks each about their salary expectations. Imagine that the female candidate asks for a salary that is substantially below what the male asks. He knows that the male may not accept the job offer at a lower salary, and knows that the female is willing to accept the lower offer.

Discussion Questions:

  1. How should we live?

    1. What responsibility does the HR manager have for paying equally qualified employees?
    2. If the manager pays the female less, would you characterize him as sexist? Is this decision unfair workplace discrimination?
    3. Imagine now that the HR manager is a woman? Would this change your judgment?
    4. How particular social contexts can shape decisions and, despite the best intentions of individuals involved, result in socially undesirable consequences.

 

B.     Ethical Leadership

  1. How might a HR manager or the CEO who seeks to end unequal salary structures change the work environment to address the dilemma of unequal pay resulting from unequal salary expectations among male and female candidates?

 

Tips:

  1. Provide your answers without using any AI bots or websites. Make a clear discussion of the case considering your organization/company as where the case is.
  2. After completing your part, ask an AI bot or software to create answers for the discussion
  3. Make a deep comparison between your answers and the AI answers. Highlight your strengths and weaknesses and highlight the AI strengths and

Write a very short conclusion about benefits and concerns (if any) of using AI.

Informational interview with a human resource

Conduct an informational interview with a human resource professional in which you explore the leadership side of human resources.

Write a 4–5 page paper that outlines your informational interview with a human resource leader. Explain the leader’s role and unique perspectives of human resource leadership. You will also analyze how this advises you on your own perspectives of being an effective human resource leader. Your paper should be well organized and cover the following elements.

  • Introduction.
  • Describe the leader’s position and role in the human resource function.
  • Examine the leader’s philosophy and approach for being an effective leader and strategic partner. Be sure your interview covers the following facets of leadership and management:
    • The challenges and opportunities of the interviewee as a human resource leader and how that differs from their role as a human resource manager.
    • The leader’s approach to influencing people and organizations as a strategic partner.
    • The leader’s advice for being an effective leader.
  • Analyze how the leader applies leadership theories to support human resource outcomes. Be sure to cover the following elements:

In your own words, explain why Newman believes a gentleman should cultivate “gentleness and effeminacy (tenderness) of feeling, you know, get in touch with his feminine side without any controversy.

/in /by

Literature British

This work is from the Victorian Age. The focus is knowledge.

John Henry Cardinal Newman The Idea of a University

150-200 words in length. Roughly two (2) paragraphs. Do not write in first person.

In your own words, explain why Newman believes a gentleman should cultivate “gentleness and effeminacy (tenderness) of feeling, you know, get in touch with his feminine side without any controversy. Please, no critical Mombo-jumbo, and again, use your own words to explain. That means you should have read and understood what you’ve read, so that you can explain it without regurgitating Newman word for word. A paraphrase or two is okay, but should be minimal at best, and parenthetically cited within your paragraph. However, I don’t want to read your discussion and feel like I’m re-reading Newman. Worse than that, I don’t want to feel like I’m reading someone’s critique who has studied Newman as their life’s work. Understand? You are an intelligent person. You know what your take-away is. At one time or another you’ve probably even considered how you feel about this whole man, feminine side, controversy. So, what has Newman added to that for you? Discuss it as though you are explaining it to a friend so that he or she/he might understand.

Homework 6

1. The period of a pendulum, T, is assumed (correctly or incorrectly) to depend on its mass, M, the length of the pendulum. P, the acceleration due to gravity, 9, and the angle of swing, O. Using dimensional analysis, nondimensionalize the period, T, and express its dependence on the other non-dimensional terms.

2. Under certain conditions, wind blowing past a rectangular speed limit sign can cause the sign to oscillate with a frequency w. Assume that co is a function of the sign width, b, sign height. h, wind velocity. V. air density p, and an elastic constant, k. for the supporting pole.

Hint: The constant k has dimensions of [force x length].

  • a) How many (non-dimensional) fl-groups are there?
  • b) Find these non-dimensional groups.
  • c) Can one of the 11-groups be considered a Reynolds number?

3. Consider two different flows over geometrically similar airfoil shapes. one airfoil being twice the size of the other. Also, assume that the angle of attack is the same in both flows. The airflow over the smaller airfoil has freestream properties given by 71.= 200K. p. = 1.23 kg/m3. and V. = 100 m/s. The airflow over the larger airfoil is described by T. = 800 K. p= 1.739 kg/m3, and V. = 200 m/s. Assume that the viscosity of the air is proportional to T1I2 , while the heat capacities of air is a constant. Are the two flows similar?
