Knowledge of the nuclear disaster at Chornobyl

Write a 1,500-word essay that analyzes the entire book; for example, you could focus on one theme and show how the book develops this theme through its three parts.

In addition to using quotes from the book, support your argument with evidence from 3 additional sources. In the U.S., Alexievich’s work has not received a lot of attention, much of which is due to traditional assumptions about what a literary text should look like and do. As a result, you will not find many scholarships about her work in academic journals; however, you can find book reviews of her work as well as articles in newspapers, magazines, or journals that give you some background knowledge of the nuclear disaster at Chornobyl and Alexievich’s method of gathering information and writing her books.

Suggested sources: book reviews, interviews with the author (check YouTube), Alexievich’s website, and any of the sources linked in our Canvas site (for example, the article “The Memory Keeper”)

Failure of an economic endeavor

A free enterprise system provides individuals the opportunity to make their own economic decisions, without restrictions from the government. It allows the supply and demand of consumers to determine the success or failure of an economic endeavor. As a result, some business owners have become successful, while others have not.

In an essay, you will choose an entrepreneur and argue whether the free enterprise system was necessary for that individual to make an impact on the business world.

Key aspect of sociological research

In Chapter 3 of your textbook, various methodological techniques for studying the social world are discussed. A key aspect of sociological research is utilizing the power of observation. Applying what you have learned about sociological research: First, discuss the role of observational research as a key methodology for studying society.

Second, utilizing nonparticipant observation, participant observation, ethnography or ethnography observe and record a detailed account of a social context or virtual social context that you are no stranger to (think local coffee shop, shopping mall, church or night club, a blog, Twitter feed, or Instagram) from a sociological perspective. Be careful to be objective and ethically neutral. Do not include judgments or opinions of behaviors but rather, as best as possible, systematic observations.

Third, discuss how a common-sense view of that social setting may look different from a sociological one. Does looking through the lens of sociological research methodology transform how that social space may be viewed. Substantiate your views.

Fourth and finally, post a response to another classmate’s posting discussing your thoughts in a respectful and thoughtful manner. What stood out to you about their observations and the behaviors occurring?

Race and ethnicity

Race and ethnicity are terms that are commonly confused in everyday life. Furthermore, the concepts of racism, stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination are often topics of discussion without much thought as to their precise meaning.

Second, comment on whether or not these terms have played a role in your life (positive or negative) and in what manner. Third, imagine that you identify yourself under the label “Hispanic”; given the knowledge presented, how might you respond to the following statement: “But you don’t look Hispanic … !”

Understanding of basic C++ programming concepts

Demonstrate an understanding of basic C++ programming concepts by completing the following: Program: Create a simple C++ console application that will write a program that will take string input from a user. Your program should reverse the string and then print the output to the screen. Take input from the user 3 times for varying string lengths.
Program Analysis: Given your program implementation, discuss and identify the possible vulnerabilities that may exist. If present, discuss solutions to minimize the vulnerabilities. Then discuss and identify possible problems that can result in errors for string manipulation of data. Your program analysis should be 1-2 pages in length.
Submit the following components:

Word document with appropriate screenshots of your program executing, program analysis responses, and source code in the Word file. Your program should reverse the string and then print the output to the screen. Take input from the user 3 times for varying string lengths.
