Canadian CSOs

– In this assignment, you will examine the work of Canadian CSOs in another part of the world, assessing to what extent their work employs a charity versus a social justice approach. Your assignment is to compare and contrast two Canadian organizations and their work in one particular country, and to consider how their work responds to one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

1) Learn about the UN’s SDGs (https:// sustainabledevelopment.un.org/ ?menu=1300), and choose one of the SDGs as the main focus of your assignment.

2) Learn about the Canadian Council for International Cooperation (CCIC) by examining its website (www.ccic.ca). Over many years, the CCIC has developed a guiding framework for its member organizations meant to reflect the social justice aspirations of Canadian civil society in the area of international development. To learn more, pay particular attention to the “About Us” tab, specifically to the CCIC’s “Code of Ethics and Operational Standards” and its “10-point Agenda” (originally adopted in 2008 and reconfirmed in 2017 as its “guiding framework”), and to the “What we do” tab.

3) Choose two Canadian organizations that are members of the CCIC to examine for this assignment (there are more than 80 organizations to choose from). The Member Organizations are listed under the “members” tab on the CCIC homepage. You will find links to the organizations’ own websites there. You need to find two organizations that work in the same country doing comparable work, i.e. work that responds to the same SDG.

4) Examine the websites of the two organizations. Consider how they conform to the standards and agenda of the CCIC. Also, assess the work they do in the country of your choosing in light of the UN Sustainable Development Goal(s) on which you are focused and in light of the standards and agenda set by the CCIC. Compare and contrast these organizations and their work.

5) Find a recent independent source (a newspaper, blog, etc.) that you consider reliable (recall SPARK) and that addresses the issue(s), country and/or organizations you have examined. Cite this source and reference it in your analysis. How does this source affect your view of the two organizations and their work?

6) Read one academic article from those listed below that discuss the concept of civil society and the role of civil society organizations. How does this source affect your view of the two organizations and their work? Use the author’s ideas to further analyze the work of the two organizations you are considering. Cite this source and reference it in your analysis.

7) Read one article from the list below that discusses the differences and similarities of a charity approach versus a social justice approach. Think about whether you see the work of the CSOs you have considered as classic “charity”, i.e. trying to “help” without thought to how their work conforms to the tenets of social justice and undoing-oppressions. Cite this source and reference it in your analysis.

-Your essay requires a clear thesis regarding the extent to which the CSOs fit under the ‘charity model’ versus the ‘social justice model’. It should also provide the reader with a coherent review of the study and analysis you have conducted by going through the above steps. While it is important to briefly describe aspects of the work of the organizations in order to ground your analysis, remember that the assignment is principally analytical rather than descriptive.

Format: The essay should be typed, double spaced, with 12-point font and one inch margins. Be sure to type your name, student number, your TA’s name, and tutorial time at the top of the first page. Also put the word count in bold. You may be penalized if the essay exceeds the preferred length of 800 WORDS! Remember that the bibliography does not count as part of the total word count. The essay will be marked for both content and writing style. Please re-read, proofread, and revise your work before turning it in. Don’t forget to use spell-check.

Designing Curriculum for Your LMS

Now that you have identified an LMS for your organization, you need to determine several assets that you would include in your courses or training. You will also need to decide if the material will be delivered synchronously, asynchronously, or as a hybrid of the two.

Write a two to four (2-4) page paper in which you:

Determine at least four (4) different learning assets (e.g., lecture, video, discussion, test / quiz, etc.) that can be integrated in the LMS. Note: At least two (2) of the assets that you determine should be interactive.
Determine the delivery modality (i.e., synchronously, asynchronously, or as a hybrid) for each asset that you have identified and how the related delivery modality will work the best for your organization. Provide a rationale for your response.
Create an outline of five (5) curriculum objectives that support your learning assets and provide one (1) sample for each chosen learning asset for the curriculum.
Note: The samples can be short and simple depending on your course topic. The goal is to test whether the assets work functionally in the LMS. The sample file pages are not included in the required assignment page length.

Note: You may use assets that you created from others courses (e.g., EDU 522, etc.).

Specify the key stakeholders who are responsible for managing the assets and what criteria they will use to manage.
Analyze how each asset enhances the educational goals of your course and examine the way(s) in which the LMS supports those goals.
Provide at least three (3) reliable, relevant, peer-reviewed references (no more than one [1] used previously), published within the last five (5) years that support the paper’s claims.
7. Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:

a. Typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.

b. Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.

Plagiarism
The health care career paper is to be the student’s original work. Plagiarism is the improper borrowing of another person’s words, ideas, or methods. If you use another person’s material, you must acknowledge your source. When you cite a source properly, you have given credit where it is due, and you have also given your readers a way to locate the original material on their own. But, there is more than that to plagiarism. Copying material directly without placing it between quotation marks, even if you provide the source, is an act of plagiarism.

Target Company

The case is a formal paper 5 to 8 pages long. There is no title page, no table of contents, and no list of references or appendix. The paper should be formatted using APA style. It is due at the end of the fourth module (or week) of the course.
Target Company is a manufacture company that makes shoes. Once Target Company designs the show, reviews the design and finalized it, the fabric is cut and shaped to the pre designed specifications required for the Shoes. Further, another machine thins the edges so various pieces are easier to sew together.

Required:
1-Discuss several production methods and the different accounting systems each requires that Target Company may use.

2. Discuss the cost accumulation process for a Target Company. Is it different for a service organization?

3. Explain the reasons product cost information is important for Target Company managers.

4. How does the Work-in-Process account both describe the transformation of inputs into outputs in Target Company and how Target Company account for the costs incurred in the process?

5. The accounting for Target Company must be familiar with the calculations of total manufacturing costs and cost of goods manufactured. Describe the three categories of manufacturing costs. What is the difference between total manufacturing costs and cost of goods manufactured?

6. Target Co. had the following beginning and ending inventory balances for the year ended December 31, 2014:

Calculate the amount of Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year

epithelial derived cell lines

For questions 5 through 9: You have isolated an epithelial cell line which is unresponsive to EGF (normal epithelial derived cell lines require EGF in the culture media for growth). You suspect that EGF receptor signaling in this cell line is impaired, and you designate this a mutant cell line. As an assay for EGFR signaling, you have stably transfected this mutant cell line and a normal cell line with a luciferase-based reporter construct that is responsive to the transcription factor Elk-1. You want to determine what component of the signaling pathway is impaired.
1. Briefly describe a method you could use to transfect the luciferase- based reporter construct DNA into a cell, and then describe how you could establish (or select for) a stable cell line expressing this reporter construct. 2. The luciferase activity is measured in both the mutant cell line and the normal cell line following treatment with (+) or without(-) EGF in the culture media. Luciferase Activity (A.U. +10%) *A.U. =arbitrary units
-EGF +EGF
Mutant 9 10
Normal 8 182 a. Briefly state what the results tell you and indicate whether the impaired component in the mutant cell line lies upstream or downstream in the EGF signaling cascade, or if the component indicated is in fact the impaired component. 3. Introduction of EGF receptor that is constitutively phosphorylated at tyrosine 1068 results in prolonged Elk-1-mediated transcription in wild-type cells, but has no effect on the mutant cell line (i.e. no Elk-1-mediated transcription). a. Briefly state what the results tell you and indicate whether the impaired component in the mutant cell line lies upstream or downstream in the EGF signaling cascade, or if the component indicated is in fact the impaired component.

4. Expression of a constitutively active raf results in the following:
Luciferase Activity (A.U. + 10%)
-EGF +EGF
Mutant 192 190
Normal 186 189

a. Briefly state what the results tell you and indicate whether the impaired component in the mutant cell line lies upstream or downstream in the EGF signaling cascade, or if the component indicated is in fact the impaired component.
