This assignment is designed to help you get started on your Final Research Paper by requiring you to choose the topic and sources you will use, as well as summarize those sources. It will also give your instructor a chance to provide you with feedback on your thesis statement and your topic.

Now that you have reviewed the Final Research Paper requirements, you are ready to complete the Week Three Assignment Worksheet, which contains further instructions (if you are on a mobile device or a Mac, you may have trouble clicking on the links within the worksheet. All of the resources linked to in the worksheet are available in the Week 5 Assignment description).

In this class, you have three tutoring services available: Paper Review, Live Chat, and Tutor E-mail. Click on the Ashford Writing Center (AWC) tab in the left-navigation menu to learn more about these tutoring options and how to get help with your writing.

Imagine that things are going well with your expansion efforts, but you wake up one day to find your industry has suddenly become one of the three Imperfect Competition market structures: monopoly, monopsony, or oligopoly.

• What is the one Imperfect structure most likely to occur, given the nature of your industry and its products/services?
• Who would be the dominant players?
• In what ways could this be beneficial for the consumer? In what ways could it be harmful?

Part 2:

• What are the most important economic concepts that you have learned? How have you or how will you apply them?
• What ah-ha moments did you experience in Managerial Economics?
• How will you communicate differently about economic concepts in the workplace?
• How will you continue to use and develop your economic literacy?
• Has this course had an impact on your professional performance or how do you anticipate that it will?

This week you will locate a case using Nexis Uni (Lexis Nexis) database with the DeVry Library, Find Law, or another research tool and obtain legal research on the selected case involving the EEOC and one of the laws employment laws that we discussed in class (FMLA, ADA, Civil Rights Act, etc). The case should be within the last 5 years. You should also research the circumstances surrounding the case (i.e. the other party, any news that may have been created or any other pertinent information).

You will write a one to two page paper surrounding the case to be submitted in Week 7. The paper should be formatted using APA including a title page, reference page, double space, in text citations, headings. You should include parties involved in the case, critical facts and/or allegations of the case, what law(s) were violated, description of the law(s), who won the case, and what were the resolutions.

You need to develop a selected response assessment for a particular grade level and subject area. (You are free to choose the grade level and subject area.) This will be used to assess the achievement of students in your classroom. You will also develop a protocol students can use to analyze their performance and set goals for improvement. You will analyze their performance and explain how results will shape your instruction. A test blueprint will be developed in order to enhance the validity of the assessment. The blueprint also functions to delineate the content covered and type of learning targeted.

Read the case and answer the discuss questions below in a FULL page single space

1. How realistic do you think it is to create a world standard for toys with respect to their safety and use by children?

2. Should we ban products from a country that does not follow standards similar to what the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission suggests for the United States? Is the CPSC overprotective? Should each country have its own guidelines? Why or why not?

3. If there are health risks associated with lead poisoning, what about related areas such as lead in drinking water (e.g., the issue that came to the forefront in the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign regarding water supply in Flint, Michigan)?

4. Is lead in toys a financial, or cost, issue? Why have we not seen the toy industry monitor and do something about the lead problem, even though we have known about it for more than 30 years?
