Environmental risk

Nature itself presents hazards to human health, including disease, natural poisons, and radiation. Regulators use a process called environmental risk assessment to decide whether they need to take risk management steps in relation to a risk. In this activity, you will carry out three steps of an environmental risk assessment called release analysis, exposure analysis, and health effects analysis. This activity will require outside research in addition to the textbook and will set the stage for a larger assignment in Week 4.

Instructions

Write a 1-2 page paper using the following instructions.

Select an environmental risk that occurs in nature, and research information about its release, exposure scenarios, and health effects. The specific data in each area of the analysis will depend on the environmental risk you choose. Write at least one paragraph for each analysis:

Release Analysis: Identify the contaminant, and how it is released, measured, or detected. Include units of measurement, setting for the release, and scientific fields related to the contamination or measurement.
Exposure Analysis: Analyze the risk of exposure such as settings in which people encounter the risk or plausible scenarios in which exposure occurs.
Health Effects Analysis: Estimate the risks to human health, including short and long-term effects,

Spread of COVID-19

Sometimes nature presents itself as a laboratory, where scientists can study results that are far more broad-based than any test they could set up in a controlled environment. COVID-19 “shutdowns” offered such an opportunity, when large geographic areas reduced activity to stop the spread of COVID-19. Scientists are studying the impacts on air quality, looking for lessons that could have broader significance for policies to slow climate change.

Environmental sustainability internship

Your personal statement should be one page in which you write about your interest in the opportunity, what kind of internship you are interested in, and your specific skills and experience that will make you a good candidate for the program. You should not reference specific company names of interest to you in your statement, as your personal statement may be shared with multiple potential employers. Career Services can help you write both of these documents.Environmental Sustainability in Ho Chi Minh City is an opportunity for students to be considered for various internship placements in the field of Environmental Sustainability in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Ho Chi Minh City is a metropolitan city of Vietnam with a population of twelve million. It is one of the top ten most dynamic cities for innovation and start-ups in the world, and Vietnam itself wants to make the country known as a “start-up nation,” utilizing 4.0 technology for its economy. Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing countries in the world with a booming economy and ever-increasing construction and foreign investment. The fast growth and speedy development of the economy raise the awareness of sustainability as a way to preserve the health of the country. Jobs in environmental sustainability for public, non-profit and industry sectors are in high demand. With the ability to face real issues that affect developing countries, Ho Chi Minh City is a safe and dynamic place to be and to intern. From going onsite for wastewater quality surveys, analyzing environmental impacts of a new building plan, or organizing press releases for a sustainability entrepreneurship incubator program, the intern experience will be filled with meaningful and valuable tasks.

Organizational development

You are a new general manager for a large organization. With the current environment of being in a pandemic, working from home is now the new norm. Many traditional “old school” managers are now being forced into remote working, and many are having difficulty in dealing with the inability to see their team members in person. You are a recent graduate from an all online higher education college, where being online to do course work and interact with the professor is “normal.” You decide to take some of that experience and also conduct some research to create an organizational change manual for all managers and employees dealing with working remotely.

Instructions

Using Microsoft Word, create an organizational development manual that includes the following:

Describe the importance of R&D for an organization.
Describe how organizations can use research and development to foster innovation.

Describe some innovative approaches of research and development (R&D) to organizational change, specifically to the remote worker.
Describe how can we overcome the “old school” mentality of remote work and what are some development tools that can help employees/managers with the transition.
Review the impact of working remotely with regards to managing resources of the company. Include the economic impact of remote work on the company.

Learning environment

Go to Big Dog’s Instructional System Design (ISD) page. This website is an excellent resource that describes all aspects of the ISD model. Click on “Learning” and scroll to the concept map or list of terms to the left of the map. Click on “Learning Styles” and take the Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic (VAK) survey. What are the implications of your learning style for how you best learn? What type of learning environment is best suited for your style? Be as specific as possible.

In your peer responses, consider ways that your own learning style has helped or hindered you in the past. Can you offer any suggestions to your peers about strategies to develop training for a different preferred style than your own, or ideas on how to manage as a trainee in a course or session that is not presented in your preferred style?

Auditory learners often talk to themselves. They also may move their lips and read out loud. They may have difficulty with reading and writing tasks. They often do better talking to a colleague or a tape recorder and hearing what was said. To integrate this style into the learning environment:

Begin new material with a brief explanation of what is coming. Conclude with a summary of what has been covered. This is the old adage of “tell them what they are going to lean, teach them, and tell them what they have learned.”
Use the Socratic method of lecturing by questioning learners to draw as much information from them as possible and then fill in the gaps with you own expertise.
Include auditory activities, such as brainstorming, buzz groups, or Jeopardy. Leave plenty of time to debrief activities. This allows them to make connections of what they leaned and how it applies to their situation.
Have the learners verbalize the questions.
Develop an internal dialogue between yourself and the learners.

Visual learners have two sub-channels—linguistic and spatial. Learners who are visual-linguistic like to learn through written language, such as reading and writing tasks. They remember what has been written down, even if they do not read it more than once. They like to write down directions and pay better attention to lectures if they watch them. Learners who are visual-spatial usually have difficulty with the written language and do better with charts, demonstrations, videos, and other visual materials. They easily visualize faces and places by using their imagination and seldom get lost in new surroundings. To integrate this style into the learning environment:

Airline companies in the U.S,

Make a PPT and OUTLINE with your analysis of our business case number 3: “SOUTHWEST AIRLINES: IS “LUV” AT THE LIMIT?” ****link to the book is below with the case study on PAGE 479****

Southwest, historically known for its highly efficient and successful ‘low-cost’ operations, had paid millions over the past decade to settle safety violations. Southwest was fined for flying planes that needed repairs including at least two incidents where the roofs of Southwest planes opened up inflight. Could Southwest remain an airline that customers loved?

Your assignment is to evaluate the strength of the competitive forces in the airline industry using Porter’s 5 Forces framework–***PAGE 52 on the linked book***. How does Southwest’s approach to competing in this industry influence the competitive forces it faces? How has it benefited from the broader changes in the external environment and what should it be concerned about in future?

You will assume the role of an external consultant hired by the firm’s corporate leadership. Each student must produce and deliver a short (approximately 3 minute) presentation identifying a strategic issue faced by the firm, and providing a recommendation to address the strategic issue. No external sources may be used.

Specifically, your PPT and OUTLINEcase analysis must:

Address a professional audience (in relation to their rhetorical context, e.g., C-Suite, Board of Directors)
Identify the strategic issue faced by the firm
Provide at least one piece of concrete evidence to show that this is a strategic issue
