...ART 2 • MUSEUM – BASED ESSAY • DUE: MAY 4/5 Suggested Locations* L.A. Country Museum of Art (LACMA) • lacma.org for info. The Getty Center (Santa Monica) or Getty Villa (Malibu) • getty.edu for info. The assignment is to write an expository essay that focuses on an interpretation of one artwork using a specific symbol or theme (see examples below). Your interpretation must include an analysis of the subject & style of artwork in relation to the function of the object, as we do in class. (Remember the 4 Steps of Interpretation). Also, you should identify the style characteristics of the period-culture to which it belongs. In the paper you will provide “proof” for identifying style and/or meaning by comparing it to objects in your textbook. This assignment is NOT a “report.” That is, you will not find much information about the artwork at the museum. The point of this paper is to interpret the object based on similarities to other objects that are more “known.” Your interpretation should be made primarily of your own observations in relation to the information provided by the textbook and research you conduct about the artworks’ style, symbolism, cultural context, etc. You must support your observations with facts. Also you must properly cite your sources of information in a works cited list. Consult the articles on writing available on our MyECC teamsite in the Writing Resources folder. Examples of Symbols: sun, moon, star, flower, halo, cross, tree, horn, offering...

...Effective Communication Paper Companies will carry on having boundaries and have always had. People in today’s world, work and are experts in various jobs, for example RN, LPN’s, MA’s as well as Medical doctors for that reason boundaries exist between these types of functions. People have numerous different levels of influence as well as authority, so therefore limits are there between said subordinates as well as their bosses in medical care companies in addition to other companies. People who work inside a company do various job functions compared to, their clients, and their suppliers along with other outsiders do, for that reason here limits also exist too. There are people throughout the world work in various locations, under different circumstances, and at times in various time zones as well as cultures, for that reason creating additional limits. The main objective of all these limits is to segregate those processes, people and production in healthy as well as essential methods. These types of limits that are established keep things concentrated as well as clear, so for that reason without said limits several companies would be disorganized, those people who work in these kinds of companies without limits, would not know what to do or exactly where to go or even whom to report to. There would be nobody available to organize the sources as well as skills that the company needs to succeed and there would be no differentiation of jobs either, as well as any sense of direction...

...Literature Citation When writing a research paper, literature citation is important for the following two reasons: (1) to avoid plagiarism (which is against the student code of conduct and is grounds for failing the course) and (2) to assign proper authority to a statement (this adds weight to your paper). You may use any style of literature citation as long as the proper authorities are cited in the text and full references are provided at the end of your paper. Here is an example of a style that is common in the biological literature. In-Text Citations Whether you are directly quoting or paraphrasing, your reference is cited in the text, before the end of the statement. The in-text citation consists of the author(s) last name(s) and the year of publication. For example, Drosophila magnaquinaria, fruit flies that are only found on skunk cabbage, prefer other hosts for feeding, egg-laying, and larval development than they do skunk cabbage (Courtney and Kibota, 1990). If there are more than two authors, then you may list the first author’s name followed by et al. For example, Mutational studies of Daphnia, Drosophila, Caenorhabditis, and Escherichia all provide estimates for the genomic deleterious mutation rate (Lynch et al., 1999). If you don’t know the name of the author (if the information comes from a website, for example), then you may list the website title or URL in place of the author’s name). Example Literature Cited Section The Literature Cited Section provides complete...

...TERM PAPER FOR SCIENTIFIC LITERACY, PHYS 10062. Hello Class, It is time to start thinking about the term paper, so here is the info: First, the subject: I would like you to write a paper on some scientific discovery that in your opinion had a major impact on some important aspect of everyday life. As an example, let us say that you picked the discovery of the laser. It certainly had an impact on many areas, so this would be a good choice. So how should the paper be organized and what should it contain? Let me begin with the outline of the paper that you should follow: 1. Title and author (you) 2. The paper itself. This should be divided into sections that include a. Introduction b. Body of the paper divided into sections and subsections, with subtitles) c. Conclusions 3. References (i.e., citations of literature sources that you used) The text of the paper should not be less than 8 pages, double-spaced. I encourage you to use figures to help illustrate your story. They don’t count toward the 8-page length, but will make your story clearer. Remember: a picture is worth 700,000 words. I will let you decide what to put in what section, to describe the discovery of what you are discussing, and show why it is important in ordinary life. As an example, if I were writing about the laser, in the introduction I would describe the scientific background (optical principles) that led to its discovery. Where appropriate, you can talk about the history...

As has been the case for several years, the firm’s 2010 survey1 revealed that BI applications are among the top technology focus areas for CIOs. And business process improvement is the top business priority for IT, followed immediately by reducing costs and improving the use of information and analytics. According to Bob Kaplan and David Norton, the creators of the Balanced Scorecard (the most commonly used performance management system2), “breakdowns in a company’s management system, not managers’ lack of ability or effort, are what cause a company’s underperformance.” Kaplan and Norton define a management system as the “integrated set of processes and tools that a company uses to develop its strategy, translate it into operational actions, and monitor and improve the effectiveness of both” and point out that “the failure to balance the tensions between strategy and operations is pervasive…with various studies published in the past 25 years indicating that 60% to 80% of companies are fall short of the success predicted from their strategies.”3 So why are CIOs spending so much time and energy on BI? These technologies are the platform...
