Presentation

For Dropbox Assignment 2, you are to prepare and submit a PowerPoint presentation based on one of the topics listed in Exercise 5-3 on page 146 of the textbook. You are to assume the role of a communication consultant who has been invited to speak on your selected topic at a conference. Your audience consists of approximately 100 middle-managers and top-level executives from both the private and public sectors.
Although the text states that your presentation should be five minutes in length, you are to disregard the amount of time. Instead, your presentation should be between 15-25 slides, including a title slide, and a final slide asking for questions.

– Title Slide: The title slide should include the name of the topic, your name, date, and the course name.
– Background/Introductory Material: By way of introduction, you should include some background material/facts regarding the topic. This could include statistics, graphs, charts, and any other information that you believe is important for your audience to know about the topic
– Discussion: In this section of the presentation, you need to make your audience aware of how the topic is relevant to their industry, company, or organization. In other words, why should they be concerned about the topic?
– Recommended Strategies and/or Solutions: In this section, you should recommend specific strategies for your audience to consider. As stated in the text, given the topic you have chosen and the make-up of your audience, what type of evidence would you use to persuade them to accept your proposed strategies and solutions?
– Narration: Your presentation must include narration, either in the form of a spoken narrative accompanying each slide, or a narrative script in the Notes section accompanying each slide.

In preparing your presentation, you must use one of the three organizational patterns for persuasive presentations described on page 122 of the text: the problem-solving pattern, the state-the-case-and-prove-it pattern, or the psychological-progressive pattern.

Your score will be based on both the graphic design/visual impact of your presentation, as well as your analysis and discussion of the topic. This must be a professional presentation and will take some time, so do not wait until Week 7 to begin working on the project.

Here is the feedback on your last submission of this assignment:

Hi.

For Dropbox Assignment #2, you were to prepare and submit a PowerPoint presentation based on one of the topics listed in Exercise 5-3 on page 148 of the textbook. You were to assume the role of a communication consultant who had been invited to speak on your selected topic at a conference. Your audience consisted of approximately 100 middle-managers and top-level executives from both the private and public sectors.

Although the text stated that your presentation should be five minutes in length, you were to disregard the time expectation. Instead, your presentation should be between 15-25 slides, including a title slide, and a final slide asking for questions.

In preparing your presentation, you were to use one of the three organizational patterns for persuasive presentations described on page 122 of the text: the problem-solving pattern, the state-the-case-and-prove-it pattern, or the psychological-progressive pattern.

Your score was based on both the graphic design/visual impact of your presentation, as well as your analysis and discussion of the topic.  Grading was based on the content of your slides and following assignments instructions.

For content, it seems you missed the objective of this assignment.  You seemed to have submitted a PPT on communications in an organization and not one if the items on Page 46 of our txt.  Your score is based on the compliance of the before-mentioned criteria and its application to the assignment rubric.

Correct these issues on your completely new subject and you should be fine.

Read the following article and complete a reaction paper:

Reaction paper guidelines
Overview.

Throughout this course, you will be writing reaction papers about assigned articles. The articles will supplement the textbook and lecture material and provide you with experience reading published papers.

Reaction papers do not review or summarize the article. Rather, you will give a reaction to the reading. Reaction papers can be fun to write (I know, but stick with me here). There are different approaches to reaction papers, and you can vary yours for each paper. What will remain consistent is that you will think critically about the information and respond with a thoughtful response.

Here are some possible approaches to reaction papers, but there are others. Feel free to google good reaction papers for more ideas or tips.

A discussion of why you feel the topic is important and worthy of study (or not). If it helps, you can also frame this as Why the instructor thought this paper was something we should all read.
An application of the information to your own experiences.
An application of how the information might relate to your future career.
Relating the information/findings from the article to other information from the course. This can be very interesting when it is not an obvious connection.
Alternative interpretations of the findings or ideas.
Discuss whether the information illuminated something in your thinking or changed your perspective.
Relate the information to current issues in life or society.
Discuss how development in this are might look different at other developmental stages.
Regardless of the approach you take, you will want to demonstrate that you have read the information and critically thought about it. You may discuss multiple topics within a paper to achieve the length requirement if necessary.

Tips for writing.

Actively read and take notes on the reading.
Develop a thesis statement and create an outline before writing the paper itself.
Try to not be only critical (as in 2 full pages of nothing but criticism).

Grading.

Each reaction paper is worth a max of 40 points.

Each paper will be evaluated on length (20 points) and quality (20 points).

To achieve the full 40 points, the body of the paper must be 300 words (about 1-2 pages, double-spaced, 12-point, Times New Roman Font, 1-inch margins) in length and demonstrate a thoughtful reaction to the paper. Points will be deducted if either of these requirements are not met. Papers that are not submitted to Canvas by the deadline or are submitted improperly will not be graded.

Also, please put your name in the document and as part of the file name.

first page of the thesis paper. Make sure you have written a strong thesis statement and a purpose or focus statement in the introduction. In addition to this, you need to include an outline for your paper.

**** IMPORTANT ***** Please remember, you need an ethical theory and three ethical principals to support your thesis and one theory and two principals in opposition to your thesis and this needs to be reflected on the outline. You cannot use the same theory & principals for both.

opry live stream

For your first Opry Assignment, please answer the below questions on a word document, followed by a three paragraph review of the show.  Please be detailed in your review, and avoid comments like “it was good, I like country music.”  What did you think of the lyrics and song subject matter?  Or the instrumentations? Even the clothes of the performers?  Did anything surprise you?  You are not required to like the show; in fact explaining your dislike would make for an interesting review.

OPRY QUESTIONS:

What group opened and closed the show?
When did this group officially join the Grand Ole Opry?
What are a few of the places that host Bobby Bones mentioned they have played?
Why does co-host Natalie Stovall host certain segments of the Opry?  What else is happening while she is on camera?
What circle does Michael Ray talk about, and why is it significant?
How was the recording of Michael Rays third album different in COVID times?
What song do Maddie and Tae open their set with?

Any topic (writer’s choice)

Read the case study and describe what you think are the main causes for misunderstanding between the two organizations. Use the questions presented at the end of the case study to guide you.

Then, recommend tactics that you believe would or should have been used to resolve the conflict experienced by the NBA and the CBA as well as the individuals involved on all sides of the issue. How can your tactics improve intercultural communication and organizational performance of all the parties? When appropriate, make reference to the textbook summary and other articles you may have read about this case.
