You are an Inspiration Essay Assignment: Competence + Caring + Character = Credibility
Overview: Given the post trust era, credibility is more important than ever. To be seen as a credible person people need to trust you. To establish yourself as trustworthy you need to demonstrate the three C’s described in your textbook: Competence, Caring and Character.
Directions: Your job now is to identify a single unique individual - a co-worker, boss, coach, pastor, teacher that served as an inspiration to you.
Choose a person that you observed over a period of time so you can offer specific examples of their behaviors and actions. I prefer that you do not use a close friend or family member for this activity.
Content of Essay:You are to type a CONCISE and well written 1-2 page single-spaced essay which describes specific behaviors. Choose behaviors that reflect positively on each of the three C’s: Competence, Caring and Character.
For example, you might choose a professor from the UWT and describe the level of competence as quite high and you would explain that through their understanding of the content of their course and ability to understand and explain the information. You would provide specific examples of how you knew that they were or were not competent.
Next you would examine the same person for the dimension of “caring”. Did this person demonstrate caring to you or to others? What behaviors did they show that led you to believe that they were or were not caring? Do they appear to be motivated to help you, or others?
Lastly, you will conduct the same type of analysis on the person’s “character”. What evidence do you have to suggest the level of character the person exhibits? Consider how honest or ethical their behaviors are. Are they forthcoming, open and transparent with their communication style? How do they handle confidentiality? Do they appear to be driven by personal values? Do they adhere to organizational values? Your values?

In Part One of this project, students will be designing a building.Architects are trained and licensed professionals who design buildings and play a role in the construction of those structures. Architects design structures with the purpose, style, and function of the building in mind.Students will act as an architect and design a building then describe how they will make the structure strong and aesthetically pleasing.
Students must select one of the following structures to design:residenceplace of worshipcommercial buildinggovernmental buildingStudents must choose to create one of the following schematic designs to produce (students can find examples in the course materials):Elevation drawingCross-section drawingThree-dimensional model of the exteriorWhile designing the structure, students are required to use at least two building materials, two architectural elements, and two architectural principles from the following list.Architectural building materials: stone, concrete, wood, steel, glass, iron, brick, carbon fiber, plastic.Architectural elements: post and lintel, rounded arch, pointed arch, buttressing, flying buttress, arcade, tunnel/barrel vault, groin vault, ribbed vault, dome, pendentives, cantilever, columns.Architectural principles: evidence of repetition, use of line, use of balance, use of scale, use of variety, use of texture.Create your physical project and label the completed design with each of the two materials, elements, and principles utilized.Your original architectural design may be created in one of the following ways.You may utilize any computer animation/drawing/drafting programs that you feel comfortable creating in. The free Microsoft 360 package includes Paint and Whiteboard which could be useful tools for this project.You may also create a three-dimensional model of your architectural design. You may label the fundamentals on the physical model or the photo or the model.You may hand draw and color your structure with any materials found in your home.
In Part Two of this project, students will be writing a response about their architectural design.In your written response, address the following:
Why did you choose to utilize the materials and elements in the structure in the way you did? How do these add to the strength of the structure?How did you utilize principles of design to add to the aesthetics of the structure?How did your project end up? Do you think your project represents your own individual style? Why or why not?

Your investigative report will be a fact particularization. Read the facts the Brown v. Hammond et al case (page 262), and particularize each fact using the categories of questions in Exhibit 8.5, page 373. Once you've completed the fact particularization, organize the information into a memorandum for the fictional law office (Stewart Law Office) with the following opening elements:

Legal Research: Traditional and Computer Aided (Introduction to Paralegalism, Chapters 11 and 13)Use Westlaw computer-aided legal research to find and cite the following applicable authorities for the Brown v. Hammond case: three mandatory authorities discussed in the case, and three persuasive authorities relevant to the case.
Using the Westlaw Key Cite feature, key cite the case (citation 810 F.Supp. 644). Are there any negative citing sources? If so, provide the case citations, and briefly discuss the basis for the negative citations.
If you have access to traditional legal research sources via a law library or court library, you may use those, as well.
Interoffice Memorandum of Law (Introduction to Paralegalism, Chapter 12)An interoffice memorandum objectively analyzes the law. This memorandum is written for the supervising attorney or other individuals in your law office.

Original Research Article (Peer Reviewed)- Find a paper of original research, meaning they actually performed an experiment. It needs to be closely related to your topic and recommendations, as you WILL be talking about it in your group presentation. Make sure it is a good one, so you don't end up talking about something silly or irrelevant!
The following components of the slides:-Description of your topic/case study/client-Background information and scientific foundation for recommendations*Slides on systematic reviews, as well as individual research papers-Compare and contrast peer-reviewed literature to lay literature-Final recommendations to client based on scientific literature-Anything else you wish to include to make it an awesome presentation

The purpose of this paper is to appraise the key concepts, target population, sampling methods, and credibility/confirmability of a qualitative research article. Use the qualitative study you chose for the M3 Qualitative Critique Part 1. You will also use this study for M10 Qualitative Critique Part 3.
Begin by critiquing the key concepts:Discuss the key concepts/phenomena the authors are trying to describe (e.g., perceptions, attitudes).Determine to what extent key concepts/phenomena are effectively described or defined.Next, evaluate the target population and sampling methods:What is the study's target population, and how does this compare to the accessible population?Describe the specific sampling method used and evaluate the strengths and limitations of the sampling method in reaching the target population.Analyze whether the study setting and participant characteristics were described in sufficient detail to achieve transferability (Pitney et al., 2020, p. 55).Finally, examine credibility and confirmability:To what extent were strategies to enhance credibility used (e.g., triangulation, prolonged data collection, participant checks, peer reviews)?Evaluate the objectivity of the researcher(s). Are strategies such as an audit trail, triangulation, and/or a rich description of research methods used?
This paper should be 3-4 pages and follow current APA guidelines. You must use APA heading levels to organize the paper and identify the main aspects of your critique. Support your analysis with 5 sources in addition to the article being critiqued.
