This week you will construct a PowerPoint presentation on data management. Your PowerPoint should consist of a 10- to 15-slides.

Remember that in a PowerPoint the audience needs to be kept in mind. A slide should not be too crowded and should be concise and appealing for an audience. Make use of the speaker’s notes (the white space below the slides) to expand on some of the concepts within the slides. Work citations into the slides or the speaker’s notes. Remember to keep the focus on HR.

Your final presentation should be posted that includes all of the elements listed below:

  • How might an HR professional misrepresent data for his/her benefit, and why? Provide at least three different examples.
  • What are some of the issues that might emerge as a result? Be sure to address both personal and organizational issues.
  • Are there any instances when it may be acceptable to manipulate the data? Explain why or why not.
  • How might an HR professional ensure he/she avoids data misrepresentation to their strategic partners?
  • Be specific, and provide examples with references to the literature.

Choose one photo from the Time Magazine website at this address: http://lightbox.time.com/?iid=lf|tn

You will choose a photograph from the Time site and write a descriptive paragraph. Use all five senses (sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch) to create vivid and tangible images in your own paragraph. Be sure to address each sense in its physical form and avoid metaphors. See below:

  • Sight: “The green pine trees dotted the horizon.”
  • Hearing: “The last-minute buzzer echoed through the stadium.”
  • Smell: “The sweet aroma of jasmine filled my nose as I jogged past the flower garden.”
  • Taste: “The cookies taste sweet with a hint of salt.”
  • Touch: “The sand felt cold, wet, and gritty beneath my feet.”

A topic sentence for this assignment should introduce the main point or points in the paragraph using key terms. In this case, you should touch upon the five senses because they are the focus of this paragraph. For example, “Attending the basketball game opened up my senses to vibrant lights, loud sounds, salty aromas, mouth-watering treats, and stinging sensations from so much clapping.”

Finally, add directional transitions (above the fountain, next to the doorway, to the left of the trees, etc.) to show the location and relationship of objects in the photo. This will help the reader paint a picture by placing objects in the scene without seeing the image.

You can write this from a third person perspective (as a viewer from the outside) or from a first person perspective (as if you were experiencing this scene firsthand).

Please copy-and-paste the photo image at the top of your paragraph (see Descriptive Paragraph Sample).

When you submit your paragraph for review, include the name of the photograph (if available) and the exact URL where you accessed your chosen photograph. For this shorter assignment, you need not include this information in a formal MLA Works Cited list. You may simply put the photo title and URL at the bottom of the essay.

Prior to beginning this discussion, select a peer-reviewed, scholarly article from the Ashford University Library on a particular aspect of language acquisition studied from a psychological perspective.

  • Part 1: As you were reading this week, what vocabulary was used that was unfamiliar to you or might be to your peers? Identify three to five words from this week’s content and research each word in the context of learning and cognition. Explain, in your own words, what each word means and how it is used in the context of learning and cognition.
  • Part 2: Based on the week’s discourse and content, you will access the Ashford University Library and research one scholarly article pertaining to language acquisition published within the last ten years. Provide a summary explanation of the findings in the context of your article. What implications should scholars consider based on this information? Support your explanation utilizing your course sources and your researched article.
  • Part 3: Consider the events from the past week of your life. How does the ability to read, write, and communicate effectively affect our behaviors, actions, and knowledge development?

As you share this information, consider and apply the professional standards found in the APA Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct.

Your initial post should be at least 500 words in length and should establish your understanding of the content, apply appropriate methods of ethical practices, and exhibit appropriate scaffolding of personal experience to the week’s content.
