[Solved] Use Mla Format Please

In a card, you make ONE (1) philosophical move in reaction to the assigned reading.

So, each card has a page range of 1-2.  You read the article and then make ONE (1) move.

What’s a Move?

Philosophers do things in arguments, like Challenge, Clarify, and Corroborate.

Challenge

When you challenge something in the reading, you suggest that something the author said is not true. Essentially: tell me why what the author has said is false. When you do this, there are three key points:

  • you CITE
  • you employ CHARITY
  • you use your own words to explain the challenge.

Clarify

When you clarify something, you introduce a distinction that is helpful to the current argument. Essentially, tell me a distinction that is helpful to keep in mind while thinking through this argument. When you do this, you must do three key things:

  • you CITE
  • you employ CHARITY
  • you use your own words in explaining what the clarification means and what it will do for the argument.

Corroborate

When you corroborate something, you suggest that something the author has said is true. Essentially, tell me why the author is correct in something they said, providing additional evidence. When you do this, you do the following:

  • You give more evidence for that claim.
  • You CITE the text,
  • You employ CHARITY,
  • You explain in your own words.

Use MLA format please.

[Solved] Violent Behaviors Within Teams

Diversity in the workplace has never been a more relevant topic than in recent years. Understanding the impact of culture on a place of work and how to define workplace diversity is critical to any leadership role. Additionally, as the prevalence of workplace violence increases, nurse managers must understand both regulatory and leadership implications when assessing and addressing inappropriate or violent behaviors within teams.

In this Discussion Board, choose one of the topics below for your original post. Be certain to address each of the questions for that topic. In response to your peers make certain you participate in discussions of both topics.

Topic 1: Workplace Diversity

  • How would you define diversity in the workplace? How would you know if a workplace was diverse or not? What are advantages and disadvantages related to the level of diversity present in the workplace.
  • In your opinion, what are the positive and negative impacts of culture in the workplace? As a leader what should you encourage and discourage?
  • As a leader, how might you employ the national CLAS standards to accomplish this?

Topic 2: Workplace Violence

  • How would you define workplace violence? Provide examples of workplace violence from your readings, personal, or professional experience.
  • Are there reliable standards and clear definitions for workplace violence from a legal perspective? Do you think the definitions agree?
  • Which regulatory bodies provide the most reliable definitions? Are there any areas that may not be clear?
  • As a leader, you are responsible for preventing workplace violence. What resources would you recommend for a leader to assist with that responsibility?

Please be sure to validate your opinions and ideas with citations and references.

[Solved] Pro Bono Junior Attorney

Instructions

You are currently a pro bono junior attorney working for a legal team that specializes in criminal defense. You have been asked to gather background information on a defendant of your choosing. In order to help the team build a solid defense, you must provide a 10-15 minute presentation (using Microsoft PowerPoint) explaining 2 biopsychosocial risk factors that could have contributed to their antisocial behavior. You can choose any offender for your presentation, but you must be able to find enough publicly available information to provide a good defense. The legal team will be using the presentation to determine whether you would be a good addition to their legal team for their next case. There are 3 main parts to this presentation:

  • Topic Scope: The legal team first needs to know the scope of your presentation and whom you want to defend. Thus, you should:
    • Identify the offender that you want to defend
    • Describe the relevant history of the offender
    • Provide clear details of their crimes
    • Identify 2 specific, documented biopsychosocial risk factors that the offender has that seem relevant in explaining their antisocial behavior (NOTE: documented means you can cite a trustworthy source that has claimed that the defendant has the factor you are identifying. Please include a citation for the source that stated that your defendant has the factor you identified.)
  • Explanation: The legal team also needs to evaluate how strong your defense argument will be. You should:
    • Clearly, thoughtfully, and thoroughly explain how or why the biopsychosocial factors could have contributed to the offender’s antisocial behavior
    • Use at least 2 scholarly sources (and APA format) to help you make connections between the biopsychosocial factors and the offender’s antisocial behavior
  • Sanction: After you have provided your argument, tell the legal team what sanction you will argue for your defendant.
    • Identify at least 1 limitation or argument that the prosecutor could have against the defense you made.
    • Counter-argue the potential argument that the prosecutor could have.
    • Make a specific recommendation for what sort of sentence or punishment you think the offender should receive (this might not be the same sentence/punishment that they actually received in real life — remember that you are supposed to be their legal representative!).
    • Explain why your recommendation is appropriate based on the biopsychosocial factors/explanation you identified — in other words, explain why the sentence/punishment you are recommending would be relevant and effective for your defendant.

Given that you may be chosen as one of the legal representatives for the defendant, you will also be evaluated on the quality of your presentation as well as the quality of your delivery.

  • For presentation quality, you will be evaluated on the organization and content quality of your slides as well as how well your presentation flows. Your first slide/page (title slide/page) must include your full name and the name of the offender that you will be discussing. Your last slide/page must be the Reference list of the sources you used to support your claims in your presentation. Your in-text citations and References list should be in APA format.

If you would like some help with organizing your defense, you are welcome to use this template actions, which I will attache to the file. You are not required to use the template, but it may help you in keeping track of the points you should be addressing in your presentation.

Submission Details

You must create and submit a deck of slides using Microsoft PowerPoint. Your slides should display information that you believe is important for the legal team to see/read.

[Solved] Ex Machina Showcase Robots

When measuring intelligence, I do not believe that the Turing test is the most appropriate approach. Although computers can be programmed to communicate like humans, they are limited by their programming and cannot truly experience the world like humans. While a computer may be able to respond as if it has human-like intelligence, it is important to remember that its responses are based on pre-programmed knowledge and not the result of actual learning or experience.

Humans and computers share the ability to record and store memories. However, while humans rely on biological processes to learn and grow, computers continually use programming to improve their performance. Both humans and computers use their past experiences to inform their future actions, leading to continued development and progress.

Movies like IRobot and Ex Machina showcase robots created to mimic human life, with the ability to develop human-like behaviors. As someone who believes that film often provides a glimpse into the future, I have always been fascinated by whether computers will ever be able to reach the same level of intelligence and emotional depth as humans. However, I remain convinced that computers will always be limited by their programming and cannot honestly think, feel, and experience life like a human being.

Self-Care: As humans, we naturally desire to care for ourselves and improve our well-being. This involves self-education, which can encompass a variety of activities such as reading, attending workshops, or practicing new skills. Additionally, self-care is an important aspect of our lives, which includes activities such as grooming, spa treatments, and exercise.

While computers can provide valuable information on how to take care of ourselves, they need to be improved in their ability to understand human experience. They can be programmed to give us self-care advice, but they will never be able to fully understand the emotional and physical complexities that go into caring for oneself. Ultimately, the responsibility of self-care and self-improvement falls upon us as individuals, as we are the ones who can experience and make decisions based on our unique circumstances.

Social Justice: The legal system holds humans responsible for their actions, and if they commit a crime, they can be punished through imprisonment or fines. Unlike humans, computers or artificial intelligence do not possess emotions or consciousness; they merely follow the instructions given to them in their programming. Therefore, they cannot be held accountable for wrongdoing and sentenced to jail. However, specialized software has been designed to recognize, isolate, and eliminate threats in cases of cyber-attacks such as hacking, malware, spyware, or viruses. The software acts as a shield, protecting the system from malicious attacks and keeping it secure.

Emotional intelligence: While computers can support managing emotions, it is essential to acknowledge that human emotions are complex and accurate. Many factors, including our thoughts, experiences, and interactions with others, influence our feelings. While computers can provide tools and resources to help us cope with our emotions, ultimately, it is up to us to navigate and manage our emotional experiences.

Ethics: Computers, being machines, cannot possess personal ethics or moral values. However, they can be programmed to provide access to vast information on the principles of ethics, enabling users to learn and make informed decisions on ethical matters.

Remember to respond to two peers while being respectful of and sensitive to their viewpoints. Consider advancing the discussion in the following ways:

  • Post an article, video, or visual to reinforce a peer’s idea or challenge them to see their point from a different perspective.
  • Engage in conversation with your peers around the topic of intelligence. Consider asking a question or sharing your own personal experience.
