The Big Short

Assignment Requirements:
This writing assignment requires you to watch the film, “The Big Short,” conduct original research on a theme from the film, and write a research paper that analyzes that theme from multiple ethical perspectives. Alternatively, you may read the book by Michael Lewis, “The Big Short,” to complete this assignment. The film can be rented on a service like Netflix; the book is available in the CCBC library stacks.

You will then analyze the movie of your choice, examining the conduct of the parties involved from at least three principles of ethical conduct. You must choose one ethics theory from each of the three columns below to analyze the movie you have chosen to write about.

 

Deontological

Teleological

 

Miscellany

 

  • Universality (categorical imperative)
  • Virtue Ethics
  • Distributive/Procedural
    Justice
  • Disclosure Rule
  • Rights Ethic

• Egoism
• Utilitarianism • Relativism
• Ends-Means
• Conventionalist

 

• Proportionality

  • Intuition Ethic
  • Doctrine of the Mean

A. Proposal Format:
 The purpose of the proposal is to make sure that you are on track for completing the writing assignment successfully. The proposal assumes that you have already watched the film, identified a theme from the film you wish to write about, and you have conducted some preliminary research on that theme.

 

Your Paper Proposal should:

(1) identify the three ethics viewpoints you will use to analyze the movie,
(2) list the outside research sources you have consulted in preparation for the paper,
(3) include a preliminary thesis that answers the question of whether you believe a theme from the selected film is ethical, and
(4) your research strategy for researching the film’s content.

Example preliminary theses follow (please be sure to write your own thesis):

  1. The use of antibiotics in food products is unethical because it violates the disclosure rule, but ethical because its use serves the greater good from the viewpoint of utilitarianism.
  2. Enron’s conduct in failing to properly supervise its CFO’s conduct was unethical because such conduct violates the categorical imperative, and because such conduct violates the doctrine of the mean.

Your research strategy should discuss your approach to finding reliable and relevant information on the theme you wish to write about. How will you search for materials? What databases will you use to conduct your research? How will you evaluate if materials you find are reliable, relevant and recent?

B. Draft & Final Papers:
A draft of your paper is due by 11/5/17. Feedback on your paper will be based on the Grading Rubric posted on the course site. Grading on the draft will be full credit for a good faith effort at a draft, but you will have an opportunity to incorporate the Rubric’s feedback in your revision of your paper for final submission.

Your final paper for the course is due on 12/10/17. Please submit your paper in MS Word or .pdf format through the assignment drop box on Blackboard. Late submissions cannot be accepted because of the grading deadlines for reporting grades to the College. Final papers will be graded based on the Grading Rubric.

You will need to complete original research on the ethics viewpoints/principles that you have chosen to use to analyze the movie, and on the information presented in the movie, utilizing the College library’s research collection. Please be sure to review the video walk through of how to use these research materials online. Your paper should cite a minimum of eight (8) research sources using MLA format for your citations, including at least two (2) scholarly sources from a reliable academic journal. You should include a Works Cited section at the end of your paper that identifies all research sources. You must also utilize in-line citations to your research sources within the paper.

All papers should be organized into the following sections:

  1. Introduction
  2. Thesis Statement
  3. Factual Summary of the Movie
  4. Summary of the Ethics Viewpoints
  5. Ethical Analysis of the Movie from Each Viewpoint

6. Conclusion

Your paper should be 6-8 pages in length (not counting your Works Cited section or any cover page), have 1 inch margins, be double-spaced, and in a 12 point font such as Times New Roman. Papers should be submitted in MS Word format.

How Does Bones Grow And Develop?

Rules below post: should be 100-150 words

    When babies are born, they have about 300 bones in their body. Their bones are made of soft and flexible cartilage. Like the tip of the nose or top of the ear. By the time they become adults, there will be about 206 bones in the adult body. What happens is that, the small bones that we are born with come together over time to form larger and longer bones. The epiphyseal plate deplete and marrow cavities unite into one cavity. As we grow, the cartilage in our bodies grow and over time it gets replaced with bones. This replacement happens with calcium. The process is called ossification. This is when layers of salt accumulate on the cartilage cells. Cartilage cells die leaving space for blood vessels to grow. Blood vessels bring Osteoblasts cells which help collect more calcium and produce collagen fibers. The Osteoblast become osteocytes and reabsorb bone matrix and  some deposit it. They contribute by maintaining homeostasis of bone density and blood concentration. Ossification usually end by mid-twenties and our bones become capable of healing on there own.      Growth of our bones is what increases our height. Bones elongation is because of cartilage growth. Growth of the cartilage from within is Interstitial growth. It is a form of dwarfism which is because of failure of cartilage growth in long bones. Bones grow in diameter and thickness as well. This process is called Appositional gowth which is with new tissue at the surface. Cartilage can enlarge by both Interstitial or Appositional growth. Osteoblast in the inner layer of periosteum deposit osteoid tissue on the bone surface, calcify it, and become trapped in it as osteocytes.As bones increase in diameter, its marrow cavity also becomes wide. This happens by osteoclast of the endosteum dissolving tissue on the inner bone surface.

 

Your post must be highly organized, thorough and accurate. All posts should include proper grammar and mechanics. 

2.Advance the discussion or extend discussions already taking place. Responses must add new information not previously discussed. 

3.Pose new possibilities or opinions not previously voiced. Consider new factual information tied with critical thinking. Interesting and current research on the topic. 

4.Do not simply summarize another student's post and agree/disagree. Consider starting out posts with, “A research article I found said, Did you know, 3 things I found interesting were…”

In some capacity–whether professional or personal–we have all been on the receiving end of feedback. In this discussion, we will talk about those feedback experiences and use both the good and bad experiences to help us build a collective understanding of best practices for your work building and managing analytical teams.

First, think of a time you can recall receiving feedback for improving your performance. What was the setting or situation? How was the feedback delivered and how did you take it? Try to reflect on why this particular incident is one that you remembered when you read this prompt: was it unusually helpful or hurtful feedback? What was your reaction to the feedback and what was its impact?

Then, return to the discussion and respond to some of the posts from your colleagues. What do you think might have been done differently? How would you have responded to a similar situation? As you move through this discussion, try to work as a team to assemble a list of strategies to embrace and to avoid as you begin coaching an analytical team.    

In this discussion, How do they network usefully, internally and externally, to solve problems and implement solutions, both with general project management approaches, and with methods that utilize somewhat narrowly defined skill areas and get people in these areas to work together effectively?

c. Set up an interview with members of this cultural/ethnic group so you can learn more about the culture/ethnicity. The interview questions are on Blackboard under the Content tab. Each student must use the questions provided and NOT deviate from the guide. The responses to each interview question should be summarized in the paper. You do not have to type responses word for word. On the reference page of your assignment, provide the name(s) and phone number(s) for the person/people you interviewed.

d. Write a 3 page double-spaced report about: a) the bias assessment test, b) your experience in the cultural setting, and c) the interview(s). Use the “A” grading rubric on Blackboard to ensure you address all the components of the project.

In your paper, answer the following:

· What are your cultural biases and why do you have these biases?

· Why did you choose to take the test you did, and do you feel the test was accurate why or why not?

· How did you feel immersing yourself in an unfamiliar cultural setting?

· What did you learn about yourself from the assignment?

· What did you learn about the cultural group you met with?

· How will you continue to challenge your biases and/or learn about different cultural groups in the future?
