an advertisement for Uber popped across my TV. The advertisement was remarkable in a few ways. First rather than trying to encourage consumers to use their product, it was recruiting employees. Second, the campaign was built around the slogan “get your side hustle on.” I focus on two different ads for Uber. The first titled “It 's Time,” features a montage of clips of various individuals driving for Uber. The voice over tells the story of their increased earnings. The commercial opens with the question “what if your car could make you money?,” promises “extra cash whenever you feel like driving,” and notes that “you might already have a great job, but this is a new way to earn.” While…
First of all, it can change someone's life, emotionally, if someone is homeless and you give them a meal three times a day. Or, maybe just give them somewhere they could come sleep. This can change their whole experience in life. If plenty of people don’t do anything about it they will think that people only do what's best for them. Therefore, if someone helps them, it brings a whole new perspective in life. Physically, when you’re living in the cold or if you live in a house and don’t have…
Having been in the military most of my adult life it has been hard to find the time to continue my education. About half way thru my time in the military I realized that I needed to start trying to prepare myself for when I got out. I first started this journey over 10 years ago. Continuing to deploy and do my job this has taken longer then expected. Moving so many times and transferring schools had made for many classes that I will never use. My decision to switch to a degree in General Studies…
fields of research have had a similar mandate in place for several years. Additionally, it would save a great amount of time and research funds if researchers were able to simply acquire the data when building on a study rather than having to replicate the original study in the first place. This redundancy is waste of time and money and is a unnecessary step when researching a topic. However, I do think there should be some kind of exemption from this mandate if the original researcher already…
According to the Belmont Report there are general ethical principals in research involving humans: Respect for persons, privacy, confidentially, autonomy concerning the capacity of the individual to understanding and the appreciation consequences of participation resulting in the free power to make the decision to participate, sufficient information provided to individuals along with informed consent. Concerning the promotion of well being-beneficence. In order to gain the maximum benefit the…
In writing a research paper it’s important to make sure your sources are valid and will help strengthen your claim. To have a persuasive paper and grab the reader’s attention towards the issue you are addressing you need to show readers that you as the writer are giving them valuable and trustworthy information. To do this you need evidence that will help the audience understand the scope of the issue whether it be by using statistics or data in the form of percentages or a flow chart. Sometimes…
I think this may have been influenced by the relatively short time between survey one and survey two, as survey one was administered during week four and survey two was administered during the end of week 6. I also think the students perceived that the research window started much sooner than the official research window. Because I believed in the value and importance of my research method I had been following the model of student centered learning since the beginning of the school year, so for…
high end research and tested clinical expertise in tackling diverse patient issues such as culture and preferences (Carlstedt, 2010). As such, it is instrumental in maintaining patient satisfaction and improving their health and wellness status. Additionally, it allows experts to develop new approaches in the context of patient characteristic since social sciences change over time. Specifically, modern world experiences multilingual and multicultural diversity; therefore, evidence based practice…
article by Alta Charo titled, “Body of research- Ownership and Use of Human Tissue” she states that there are two key questions that researchers need to focus on that is: First, could a 1-time general consent to all future research be used? It is not clear if this type of consent would comport with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability. The HIPAA requires specific information for use of the patient's protected health information in research, unless the IRB has made a specific…
share existent or new knowledge in the field with a wider audience. Since many psychology-related research are conducted within institutionalized laboratories, only a selective group of people, such as researchers, research assistants, and research review board members know about the conducted research’s progress. Therefore, scientists, who obtain respectable degrees, usually write comprehensive papers dedicated to the progress of their research, while embracing the purpose of reporting their…
