Regional Profile13: Portugal: Lisbon and the Algarve

Assignment: Please watch the following video on Portugal. This is the second of two that deal with this country. Please follow the same procedures that we have used for the other assignments of this type.

What I am looking for is this:

Prove that you watched the entire video(s) carefully by including notes from all sections of it (from beginning to end). If in doubt, add MORE details. Err on the side of caution, but use your best judgement. You do NOT need to write down everything you hear!
Make note of important PLACES, DATES, PEOPLE, etc. from EACH PLACE THAT YOU VISIT {Tangier, Gibraltar, Ronda etc.} Make sure the importance of the item is clearly stated (i.e., dont just write a random name/date/fact.)
PLEASE USE COMPLETE SENTENCES. You might have to pause the video to do this part, but it will help me.
You are welcome to submit handwritten notes that are scanned in and attached. You may also type them directly into the textbox for this assignment.
You MUST include a brief concluding paragraph outlining which place from the video you would most like to visit. It can be a city, a museum, or any other attraction.
Points will be deducted for VAGUE, INCOMPLETE, UNINTELLIGIBLE, or UNREADABLE responses. This is an unstructured, fun, and easy assignment, but the onus is on you to make it readable and understandable.
Note: Do not under any circumstances use parts or all of the transcript for this video as your submission. Taking notes is NOT the same as transcribing the video and you are not being asked to write down every word you hear. If you do this, I will assume you took the material from a transcript and at a minimum I will assign a zero for that grade. [This might seems harsh, but it happened seven times last semester so I want to be crystal clear about this up front.]

Is the Big Five the best way to think about personality across cultures?

opinion papers are designed to allow you to coherently present an informed opinion, argument, critique, or perspective about some personality-related topic. Your paper should be in the 800-1000 word range. So, what does an informed opinion/argument/perspective mean here? Basically, it just means that it should be grounded within reality in some way or another. So to that end, Id like you to research and cite at least one scientific source in your paper. Academic journals and edited academic volumes are usually your best bet, and well spend some class time on research strategies. Youre free to cite the textbook, but it wont count as your one scientific source. Dont cite Wikipedia, popular press books, or other popular media as your primary scientific source. These papers wont be graded like essays. A coherent paper that makes a clear, informed argument or observation about a class-relevant issue will likely get full marks. We wont be evaluating the papers based upon how correct your argument is likely to be. Common issues that will cause papers to lose points include (but are not limited to) the following: – failure to communicate what the opinion/argument actually is (i.e. what the point of the paper actually is) – lack of clarity/coherence of opinion – excessive typos – confusing grammar/style/structure – paper being too short – simply reviewing a topic or paper (as opposed to giving your thoughts on a topic). Ill emphasize that last point again: do NOT simply review an existing paper or an existing area of researchto do so misses the point of the assignment. Its fine to provide a quick overview of the material youll be opining about at the outset of the paper in order to make sure your readers are on the same page as you. But you dont have a whole lot of words to work with, so get the intro stuff out of the way quickly and get down to work providing your contribution. Make sure that you cite your references both in-text and in a references section at the end of the paper (this doesnt count against the word count). It will be easiest for both you and me if you use APA formatting, but we wont be grading your formatting per se

Analyze the Nike case study, In your analysis, you will analyze the goals of Nike, events that affected those goals, and the response of key leaders.

For example, as noted on page 4 of the case study, Nike has a strong commitment to innovation, but at the same time, the company also believes in sustainable development. One might consider this emphasis on innovation and sustainability to be a major driving force in terms of Nikes overall views and goals. Yet in the early 1990s, the company faced heavy criticism for its use of contracted factories in which working conditions were less than adequate. This critical response led to changes in the use of these factories as a response by the leadership team. The result was a change in policy and an improvement in conditions.

From this short example, you can sense the cycle in which CSR often develops. First, a company has a stated or inferred core value (sustainability); next, the
company is faced with a critical event (in this case, criticism by consumers and the media); then, the company responds with a new policy or action (changes in
the use of oversea factories); and as a result, there are ramifications (increase in sales, etc.).

For this paper, you will trace these changes over time as demonstrated above. Unlike the example, however, you will include more detail and analysis.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed in your paper:
1. Evaluation of Nikes Views and Goals as Related to CSR
Describe Nikes views and goals as related to CSR.
Explain the evolution of Nikes views and goals over time.

2. Critical Events That Influenced Nikes CSR Policy
Identify critical events that occurred over Nikes history.
Explain how the critical events affected Nikes CSR policy.

3. Response by Nikes Leadership to Critical Events
Describe how Nike leadership responded to each critical event.
Explain how the response was motivated by Nikes views and goals.

4. Ramifications of Nikes Response
Identify the ramifications of Nikes response.
Explain how Nike acted in a proactive fashion (internally and externally) in the creation of its new CSR policy.
