Write a paper about two documentaries “Outfoxed” and “Freedom of Expression; Resistance & Expression in the Age of Intellectual Property” from the theoretical perspective of Marxism and political economy.

(Outfoxed is on Youtube but the other documentary isn’t. Maybe you can find a summary about it somewhere online)

The purpose of this exercise is to apply theoretical knowledge in making sense of claims made in the documentaries. Make sure therefore that you go beyond simply summarizing the documentaries or the theory.

Researchers must make informed choices about the type of statistical analysis that best addresses the research question. For the past several weeks, you have been considering how and when a particular statistic should be employed. This week, you have focused on the use of nonparametric tests.

Nonparametric methods are useful to researchers in performing statistical analyses of quantitative data sets that do not follow normal distributions and that have inconsistent variation. Nonparametric methods are often applied when ordinal-level data are collected and, as such, rely on fewer assumptions than their parametric counterparts.

In this Discussion, you examine the two articles in this week’s Learning Resources, both of which employ nonparametric methods of statistical analysis. In addition, as the final week of exploring quantitative statistics, you consider which statistical method is most frequently used in your area of nursing practice.

Note: This Discussion takes place in small groups, which should have been assigned by your Instructor.

To prepare:

Review the articles presented in this week’s Learning Resources and analyze each study’s use of nonparametric tests.

Critically analyze each article, considering the following questions in your analysis:

What are the goals and purpose of the research study each article describes?

How are nonparametric tests used in each study? What are the results of their use?

Why are parametric methods (t tests and ANOVA) inappropriate for the statistical analysis of each study’s data?

What are the strengths and weaknesses of each study (e.g., study design, sampling, and measurement)?

How could the findings and recommendations of each study contribute to evidence-based practice in the health care field?

Reflect on the quantitative statistical analyses presented throughout this course in the research literature, the Learning Resources, media presentations, and those articles you reviewed for your abbreviated research proposal.

Ask yourself: Which method is most commonly used in research studies that pertain to my area of nursing practice, and why this might be so?
By Day 4 post a cohesive response in your small group that addresses the following:

Critically analyze each article, including the items noted above.

Identify one statistical analysis method that you found recurring in many of the articles you used in your literature review for your research proposal. This method does not necessarily have to be nonparametric.

Based on your area of nursing practice, which method of statistical analysis is most frequently used in the research literature? Why do you think other forms of statistical analysis are less frequently used? Provide a rationale for your response.

Using your own words, outline Keynes’ theory of unstable private investment spending and the multiplier. Explain how this provides a foundation for Keynes explanation of the Great Depression. Use as your main references Heilbroner (1997), Keynes (2007) and Sheehan (2013).

structure of the essay:
Guidance

The most important guidance that can be given is: engage with the readings recommended by the tutors. Independent research is not required. The second most important piece of advice is: answer the question posed (not the question you would have liked to answer). The most common cause of poor marks is that work submitted fails to address the question. Focus like a laser on the question and these problems are avoidable.

Remember the assessment is designed to test your knowledge and understanding of the module’s content. Put bluntly, if you demonstrate a reasonable awareness of what you have been taught during this module you will pass. Including materials which are neither included in, nor relevant to, the module is very unlikely to be beneficial.

Do not exceed the word limit of 1750 words for each essay. Remember footnotes do NOT count towards the word limit. So in the final editing process you must decide if materials included in the main body of the work can instead feature in footnotes.

Finally, make sure you include citations for the arguments you include in your essay. Moreover, you must include a complete bibliography at the end of the essay, which includes the full references for the works cited. Citations and references must be set-out using the Harvard system.

Besides, all of the these short essays should be written clearly. Please read the prompt very carefully before writing the paper. Since the three essay questions are not included only one aspect, please answer all the points that it mentions. The terms in the prompt are explained fluently in the required readings. I will upload all the readings shortly. If the term is not clear, please read through the articles and you will get it. The answers should be all based on those given readings and the powerpoint from our lecture, which I will also post it very soon.

Submit a 1500-word double-spaced scholarly paper (MLA format) after viewing the musical Drowsy Chaperone at CSUN and Newsies at the Pantages.
Writing about Theater is not rocket science–it is sometimes harder than rocket science as there are not exact laws–only opinions argued persuasively and more persuasively. More persuasively is better.
This is an opportunity to demonstrate what you have learned and are learning in Theater, by comparing and contrasting the musicals Drowsy Chaperone and Newsies. Use Aristotle’s recipe and add Cohen’s seventh ingredient.
Some questions you might want to answer, to address all seven elements:
• In which show was plot the most important element?
• Which show had the best characters? The most intriguing? Which performer had the most successful performance? Which had the least successful? (don’t think in large roles or small–think successful with the role they had;)
• Which show had the most compelling theme/message. State the theme of each show.
• Which show had the better lyrics?
• Which show had the better music?
• Which show was not overpowered by spectacle, which Aristotle felt was the least important ingredient in the recipe for theatre. Which show reached the Goldilocks moment–not too much, not too little, but just right?
• To appreciate its performance, which show’s audience needed a knowledge of the conventions of a stage musical?
Be certain your paper has a well-thought-out beginning, middle, and end (less successful students often avoid a formal conclusion once they’ve reached the required word count)
Be certain to have read Cohen’s chapter 11 on “The Critic…” before submitting your final draft.
Break a leg. Look for the “Tips for Better Papers” link in our classroom.

The sources/references will be about the viewing the two plays and the “Theatre Brief” by Robert Cohen.
Let me know if you need more details about them to clarify it.

I would not mind if the number of references differs slightly but please keep the range from 7-12 but if you feel that you would need to use more sources than that, then please do. Furthermore, there are 9 risks that we took during the course period and they are:
1) Interest rate risk
2) Credit risk
3) Liquidity risk
4) Foreign exchange risk
5) Country or Sovereign risk
6) Market risk
7) Off-Balance sheet risk
8) Technology and operational risk
9) Insolvency risk
Therefore, when you identify which kinds of risks are involved in the case study, please stick to these risks that we took during the course, that would be great!

The project will consist of you creating a timeline of musical development through the ages, beginning with the Medieval era and moving through genres of our current day music.
A timeline is a list of elements presented in chronological order. There are many ways to present this. Some very creative methods can be found either on Word, Google, etc. However, I have found in the past that it is hard to insert enough material into the spaces provided. When the document has been sent to me, words were on top of each other and obviously could not be read—hence, not a very good grade.
