Write an application essay for the International Development Masters program offered by the School of International Service at American University. You may do some research about the university to include some info about why you chose it, how to write an admission application essay, information about the major.About me: I am an international young aspiring female coming from a developing country.I have just earned my undergraduate degree from The Fox School of Business at Temple University majoring in Human resources management, with a GPA of 3.5.I believe that my education journey should not stop there. My passion to learn and grow has always driven me to take the next step and proceed with a graduate degree.I come from a large family living in a small town back home and I am blessed to be the first member to graduate with a college degree from the United States. ( I need to get merit funding to be able to proceed with a graduate degree. Please try to be as convincing as possible). I have not had a professional full-time job, but I have done 3 different internships in 3 different organizations back home in the Huaman resources department. My desire to reshape the new world to a superior version by overcoming pressing humanitarian challenges has led to my interest to pursue a degree in the international affairs field.The program link: https://www.american.edu/sis/id/https://www.american.edu/sis/id/Here are the essays questions:Master’s applicants: pay close attention to the 400 word limit for each question as you write your responses. While we do not run a word count check on submitted documents, this strongly recommended response length is specifically designed to help you narrow the focus of your writing. You should think of the three question prompts as distinct but interrelated; spend some time considering which aspects of your experiences, qualifications, future goals, etc. fit best within each question, and keep each response focused on a few key points.Question 1: Personal Narrative/OverviewLength: 400 wordsPlease share the story of how your background, experiences, and academic interests have led you to pursue graduate school at this time and in this field. What has prepared you for this endeavor and what unique skills, experiences, or perspectives would you bring to SIS?Question 2: SIS Graduate ProgramLength: 400 wordThe field of International Affairs is broad, and SIS has a wide range of degree options reflecting that breadth. Please tell us (1) why you are applying to the specific program you have chosen and (2) how you think this degree will serve your academic and professional aspirations. You may wish to address: areas of research you envision focusing on within the program; faculty research that has had an impact on you; and/or additional opportunities at SIS/AU that would complement your graduate experience.Question 3: ValuesLength: 400 wordsThe professional field of International Affairs continues to be limited by its lack of diversity, especially—but not only—racial, ethnic, and gender diversity. SIS is committed to making the field more closely resemble the diversity of our population by training our students to recognize inclusion as a key to identifying innovative solutions for the global challenges we face. With this aspect of SIS’ mission in mind, please respond to one of the following questions:How would your understanding of the global challenges of social inequality and inequity inform your studies at SIS, your role in the SIS community, and your future work?How have you engaged with racial/ethnic diversity in your past school or work environments, and/or how do you envision yourself contributing to a more inclusive workplace in graduate school and your future career?

I need an explanation for this English question to help me study.

In this assignment, you are required to apply the Chapter 8 readings in Peppard and Ward to the Cargo Management System we’ve been exploring, particularly in this week’s assigned video lectures. Think of the Cargo Management System as a collection of major modules. Some of those modules will be needed to implement the core information systems (IS) functions of the system. Many of these were discussed in the video materials. Some additional modules would be needed to add additional functions to the system in order to satisfy management information systems (MIS) requirements above and beyond what the transactional system has to supply. The key to this assignment is in breaking down the various subsystems of your system into a list of the modules and functions that would be included. A common mistake is to limit your analysis to just the major functions included in the videos. That’s wrong! The videos discussed operational systems around customer shipments. The system you are responsible for has to include all of the support transactional functions that would also be needed in addition to those operational customer-facing processes. In order for the video functions to exist, the support functions need to be defined as well. (In traditional-IT, we sometimes refer to many of those support functions as master file maintenance.) For example, in order to give the customer an empty container, we have to have containers; so Add Container, Maintain Container, and Delete Container would have to be functions somewhere. In order to have a customer, we have to be able to Add Customer, etc. To depart on a trip, we have to be able to Add Trip, etc. The maintenance/support functions will often overtake and outnumber the core mission-focused functions. Make sure your analysis is all encompassing. Just keep in mind that your operational function can’t use an asset (noun) that hasn’t been managed (added, changed, deleted). Think customers, orders, containers, vehicles, yards, terminals, vessels, trucks, trips, etc. The nouns are the meat of your system.Your goal in this assignment is to perform an analysis on your cargo system architecture using one or more of the modeling technologies covered in Peppard and Ward’s chapter eight, particularly the portfolio segmentation material in the figure 8.1, figure 8.3, table 8.2, and table 8.3 depictions. The level of analysis is the subsystem, module, or function — whatever you consider them to be. Each named element in your analysis provides part of the system implementation. Collectively, the entire set satisfies the known requirements. Spend considerable time exploring and/or brainstorming system functions so that you have as comprehensive a list as possible. The list should include many strategic functions for managing resources and the business better and more creatively in the future. The MIS functions should be able to answer the key customer and management questions expected of this type of system. Think in terms of optimizing and tracking all key resources (i.e., cargo, containers, trucks, trains, vessels, routes, terminals, warehouses) and capabilities (i.e. carriage, consolidation, pickup, delivery, stowage) from the points of view of customers, operators, and consignees.Create and submit a document (Microsoft Word is preferred) that captures and documents your analysis. A successful analysis needs to include a comprehensive list of system functions for providing both transactional IS and management MIS capabilities. Those functions should be categorized and analyzed as described in our Peppard and Ward reading.The videos:Please see the attachment for Peppard and Ward to the Cargo Management System

Student Reply #1When considering these questions, I wanted to first break down the word “church”. When speaking of the church, theologians often use terms such as the visible and local church as opposed to the invisible and universal church. [1] The visible and local church is, of course, the physical churches that we see around us and around the world, as well as the members of those churches. Id. The invisible and universal church, however, refers to all believers everywhere and is one church, united in Christ, not many physical churches. Id. With that in mind, I also considered that our faith should manifest good works in and around us. As discussed by Gary Demar in Are Pastors Finally Getting the Message About Politics?, he states “if people are being hurt by bad governmental policies, we are obligated to work to change them. [2] If people are being enslaved by programs promoting dependency and pre-born babies are being killed by the legalization of abortion, how can any Christian say we shouldn’t be involved in politics? Why can’t we do evangelism and be politically active?”I don’t think obeying the law or running into any barriers ever compromises the Lord’s mission—it’s merely redirecting us to take a different path to the same end goal. Pastors are still able to preach on biblical, moral and social issues. [3] Pastors can urge the congregation to become involved in the political process, urge them to register and vote. Id. We don’t have to stand by and do nothing. We can be active, proactive, and political individuals.[1] Velarde, Robert, What is the Church? (January 1, 2009) https://www.focusonthefamily.com/faith/what-is-the-church/.[2] Demar, Gary, Are Pastors Finally Getting the Message About Politics?

But on the other hand, the church cannot oppose or endorse political candidates. Churches in the unites states are not allowed to participate in all political elections, just some (Turner, 2018). Since churches are not to pay tax, they are to abide by the internal revenue code and not be involved in political actions. In this case, churches can be involved in political activities that do not include supporting or opposing a specific political candidate. Engaging in such political activities would lead to the church violating its tax exemption law. Churches should neutral on their political campaign and show no favors.On the other hand, the church has the responsibility to take care of its own. Therefore, the church is allowed to participate in political actions that are important to it and the congregation. In case of any issues that the church knows about a political candidate, it should make a speech to the public as an individual but on behalf of the church as a whole (Turner, 2018). Since the church has the duty to support and protect people with shared values, endorsing or opposing a political candidate does not compromise its mission. But due to the tax exemption law, the church should only participate in political actions that address the general issue about the election and not favoring a specific political candidate.ReferencesundefinedTurner, V.

Week 8 Discussion: When the People You Love Don’t Think Like YouRequired ResourcesRead/review the following resources for this activity:Textbook: Chapter 16LessonMinimum of 1 scholarly source (in addition to the textbook)IntroductionFacione & Gittens (2016) state, “Strong critical thinking about complex and difficult social policies demands that we respect those with whom we disagree” (p. 344). The authors of your text ask us to take seriously the points of view of those with whom we disagree.Should I respect the point of view of a misogynist – a person who dislikes, despises, or is strongly prejudiced against women?Should I respect the point of view of a racist?How about someone who believes marriage is only between one man and one woman?How about someone who does not believe that humans are contributing to the conditions that cause climate change?How about someone who denies that the Holocaust occurred?Initial Post InstructionsFor the initial post, pick one point of view from the five questions above that you find particularly repugnant – one that you think is completely unjustifiable. If you were in conversation with such a person, how could you ethically respond to the statement of such a point of view? Keep in mind that you are expressing a value opinion, which requires ideological reasoning, so you may want to review Chapter 13.As you form your response, keep in mind the following; these are things you need to think about but not necessarily to write about in your initial post:Reflect if you are using System-1 or System-2 thinking? Are your responses tinged with cognitive bias?Do you think there is a qualitative difference between believing some races are inferior and the belief that marriage should only be between one man and one woman?Do you think there is a qualitative difference between not believing in human contribution to climate change and not believing in the Holocaust?Follow-Up Post InstructionsRespond to at least one peer. Further the dialogue by providing more information and clarification.Writing RequirementsMinimum of 2 posts (1 initial & 1 follow-up)Minimum of 2 sources cited (assigned readings/online lessons and an outside source)APA format for in-text citations and list of referencesStudent Sample: Hello Class and Professor! The one point of view that I would ask someone to really dig deeper into considering their choice of reasoning is someone who does not believe that humans are contributing to the conditions that cause climate change? Almost everything we do plays a part in climate change. Examples such as driving our vehicles, cutting down trees and increasing livestock. As humans, some things come naturally without putting thought into climate change. We know that these examples are apart of the issue but again it is not something we stop to think about and find additional and safer solutions that will put less harm on our climate. According to an article by NASA, “the rising of CO2 can stimulate plant growth, research has shown that it can also reduce the nutritional value of most food crops by reducing the concentrations of protein and essential minerals in most plant species. Climate change can cause new patterns of pests and diseases to emerge, affecting plants, animals and humans, and posing new risks for food security, food safety and human health” (2021). My personally opinion is that we need to start realizing what we are doing to our climate and try to adjust our lives to where we are using less fuel and not cutting down trees for no reason. These will allow our climate to regain itself and be safe for everyone. References:NASA. (2021, February 8). The Causes of Climate Change.
