The trade negotiations between Kenya and the US appertain to finding the correct balance between free trade and fair-trade practices. The United States is a superpower whose advanced industrialization gives it a competitive edge on multiple commerce fronts. On the other hand, Kenya is a middle-income country that is mostly dependent on the export of its agricultural products. Therefore, the two parties need to find a compromise in the United States’ quest to create a free market for its goods while protecting Kenya’s relatively young domestic market. The bilateral negotiations also have an academic significance as they are a real-life embodiment of the never-ending debate pitting proponents of fair trade against supporters of free trade.

The change brought by the tremendous rise in the use of e-commerce disrupted Walmart to a great extent. With the trend of digitalization continuing to increase, consumers are shifting their buying behavior and increasingly using online e-commerce, seeking low costs and convenience (Franco, 2018). Amazon’s e-commerce created a significant threat to Walmart because of the way its online market continued to rise. With its traditional retail system, Walmart could not have survived the disruptive change created by e-commerce without embracing digitalization. Competition in the retail industry became more intense because Walmart would compete with other retail companies like Costco and also e-commerce giants like Amazon.

Revise your outline as needed.

Develop an effective 3-4 page Argument Research Essay on fracking using your revised outline.

Include a strong introduction for your essay as well as a strong conclusion.

Make sure your essay is in MLA format and uses proper in-text citations.

Include proper source citations listed in a separate Works Cited after the 3-4 pages of text.

Attached is the outline you did 3 sources are the screenshots I had to send you last tim. You can ref back to the initial question

First, fracking is more environment-friendly than drilling. This process does not involve digging big tunnels, as in the case of offshore drilling.  Fracking receives negative comments from a different group of people is that it presents deadly environmental consequences.  Some of the purported impacts of fracking include emission of the greenhouse gases, the use of dangerous chemicals that are hidden from the public, pollution of underground water, wastewater is unregulated and dangerous, and it causes earthquakes.  Nonetheless, it releases less quantity of Carbon IV Oxide into the atmosphere, which one of the major causes of changes in the global climate.  Nicholas highlights that fracking produces less quality of carbon IV Oxide (6).  Instead, it has lowered air pollution and carbon dioxide emissions by replacing coal use through electricity generation. In the United States, shale gas is used in generating 24 percent of US electricity.

In essay format answer the following questions:

After reading the chapter by Capri (2015) on manual data collection. Answer the following questions:

  1. What were the traditional methods of data collection in the transit system?
  2. Why are the traditional methods insufficient in satisfying the requirement of data collection?
  3. Give a synopsis of the case study and your thoughts regarding the requirements of the optimization and performance measurement requirements and the impact to expensive and labor-intensive nature.

In an APA7 formatted essay answer all questions above. There should be headings to each of the questions above as well. Ensure there are at least three-peer reviewed sources to support your work. The paper should be at least two pages of content (this does not include the cover page or reference page).

Based on data gathered from the United States energy, it is clear that 50% of commuters do not use public transport to work, but rather their vehicles. That shows the number of cars on the road and how it can cause traffic. However, traffic can be mitigated through people utilizing public transit services (Tan, Steinbach, Karpatne, & Kumar, 2019). And therefore, public transit services must be improved by reducing costs and improving service quality to increase their utility and attract more people in using public transport to avoid them using their vehicles.

Conclusion

Transit data collection is essential for efficient traffic data collection in specific areas. However, transit data collection is still difficult due to different systems of data collection which are not designed for transit performance monitoring. Also, each data collection domain requires skilled personnel to gather quality data. To remove data barriers, transit data collection should be done online to enable connections and interoperability among transit data sets.

Validity and reliability

/in /by

However, in scholarly research, the rules are more strict and we are required to follow protocols so the data is as accurate and it can be applied to our issue under investigation.

Here is our DB discussion topic:

For this weeks assignment, please indicate two types of reliability (e.g., test-retest) and one type of validity (e.g., concurrent) and provide a definition of each then an example of when and how it would be applied in a research scenario. You are encouraged to apply this topic to your current job or profession.

Be sure to respond to at least 2 of your classmates’ posts.

The original work should be at least 350 word count

Validity measures whether a specific test has measured what it is supposed to measure. This is to ensure that the results recorded can be accurately interpreted and applied. Criterion-related validity is one type of validity that is used to measure to which extent the results of a used measure correspond or align to the results of other valid measures that apply a similar concept (Van Iddekinge et al., 2019). For example, during the hiring of new social workers, the school assesses different criteria that are likely to predict whether the new social workers would be effective in their job. Social workers who do well on the test are more likely to do well if employed than those who do poorly on a test.
