Discussion: Pretend You Are the Instructor Literature is the art of writing something that will be read twice. —Cyril Connolly, Enemies of Promise Two of the competencies you must develop in order to become an independent scholar include writing in a scholarly voice and tone and following an appropriate academic style. In your quest to become a scholarly writer, you must follow the rules meticulously detailed in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA). Initially, recalling each rule will be difficult, but over time it will become second nature. Knowing where to look to determine if the manuscript you are reading or writing is in accordance with APA standards is critically important. Following a standard writing format increases the probability of others being able to easily comprehend your manuscript. As you develop your scholarly writing prose in this program and beyond, there are two things to keep in mind: Adhering to APA writing format is required for your Discussions and Assignments, and others will read your manuscripts for comprehension. Occasionally, new writers forget they have a scholarly audience who will read their papers. It is important that the writer understand the significance of placing him or herself in the position of the reader. To that end, you will assume the role of an Instructor and will review an anonymous college paper to provide APA feedback to a student writer. During this exercise, you will practice recognizing APA errors and locating within the APA textbook the appropriate APA rules and formatting solutions. To prepare for this Discussion, do the following: Assignment to acess and correct correct Michaels Wring style and produce the new paper APA Writing Style (Michaels paper attached) 2 pages • Read and view the materials in your Learning Resources, including the Walden University academic guide pages on common reference list examples and using the Microsoft Word track changes feature. Review your APA manual for use in your assessment of the sample paper. Note: To assist you in your assessment, you may use any supplemental scholarly APA resources of your choosing. • Assess Michael’s Writing Style Prose Paper to identify any APA writing errors, and use the track changes comment feature to propose corrections. As you make suggestions or corrections, be sure to include the source name and page number(s) so the author can locate the correction rule. For example, if you find text that reads, “This study will provide…” your comment may contain the following comment: “This is anthropomorphism. To correct it, please refer to the APA manual, 6th edition, pp. 68–69 for details.” Do this throughout the entire sample college paper. Assignment part 2 Assess Michael’s Writing Style Prose Paper for APA formatting. In addition to uploading your review of the paper as an attachment in the Discussion thread, include in your post answers to the following: 2 pages • What were the most frequent errors you identified? • What did you find easy about the review, and what did you find challenging? Why? • What do you plan to do to further improve your knowledge of APA? 7 CITATIONS per page on part 2 of the assignment Additional references you may need to source

Introduction You are to produce a review of the strategic situation of Uber Technologies Inc, based on the provided material“Transformation of the Taxi Service Industry: The Uber Case Study”. This review should take the form of a business report – NOT an essay. Some of the things that you have been expected to include in your essays in the past should not feature in this report. In particular: • Business reports do not include Harvard references. You should not include Harvard references to material drawn from the case studies or core textbooks. • You should not waste words on describing the theory. You can show you understand it by using it correctly in your analysis. • You are unlikely to get any credit for a critique of the theory. That is not a skill we are testing here. • You are not expected to supplement the case studies with other facts, and you will not get extra marks if you do. We do not test your research skills in this assessment. In your review you should use theory from the module to: • Examine Uber Technologies Inc ’s business environment • Analyse Uber Technologies Inc ‘s current strategy, including its culture, structure and HR strategy • Appraise the strategy – how well does it fit the environment, and how likely is it that the company can sustain competitive advantage? This assignment relates specifically to Uber Technologies Inc’ s Taxi service. You should only discuss other parts of Uber Technologies Inc’s business if what you say is relevant to Uber Technologies Inc ‘s competitive position. Learning Outcomes assessed through this assignment: 1. Discuss the main external contextual factors influencing an organization’s competitive advantage and the HR function 3. Appraise the fit of firms’ structure, culture and HR strategies to their competitive strategies 4. Develop rigorous analyses of a firm’s business environment and the implications for competitive advantage and the management of people within private, public and third sector organizations 5. Conduct detailed analysis and appraisal of a firm’s strategy 7. Communicate complex ideas and analysis in forms suitable for an informed business audience. Details of the task Assignment Instructions Structure You have been asked to produce a management report. It should contain the following: • Title Page, including the given title in full • Executive Summary (No more than 200 words) o This should summarise your main findings and conclusions. It is not the place where you tell us the contents of the report – that happens in the Introduction • Contents Page • Introduction • Main body, which should also be organised under appropriate headings. You are recommended to use the ones in the Assessment Criteria (below) • Conclusion • Appendices, which should be numbered o Make sure you refer your reader to them as required

Review guidelines: • Just a reminder: an essay has an introduction with thesis statement, the body (made up of paragraphs each of which has a topic sentence), and a conclusion. • Do not use direct quotes {verbatim information} of any kind, of any length. Any information borrowed from our textbook or an outside source must be paraphrased. You must also include proper intext citation and a reference section. Failure to paraphrase or failure to include intext citation and a reference section will mean a score of 0. Be sure to read all of the Chapter prior to attempting this assignment. (I will upload a copy of chapter section from our textbook, summary is at the bottom of the doc will help know which section to read) here is the info to cite it as well in references. King, L. A. (2016). Experiencing Psychology (Third ed.). New York, NY: McGrawHill. ) *Remember to paraphrase any “borrowed” information and properly cite. For this assignment, you will likely need to use outside sources. *Make sure they are scholarly sources. NO website sources (.com) *Do not write this assignment as question/answer. Put everything together as one complete essay. • make sure to cite majority from textbook. • make sure to have an actual intro and conclusion. • Papers must be written with organization, clarity, and elaboration • Write essays as though a novice to the topics will be your reader. • Most textbook based courses (like this one) require students to use textbook terms in essays. Define those terms in your own words (paraphrase) and give examples/discuss. • Only APA citation and scholarly sources are permitted ASSIGNMENT: Please be sure to read these instructions carefully and complete all parts of this HW. 1) Summarize the Five Factor Model personality theory and briefly describe the ”Big 5” personality traits. Also explain why these traits are often referred to as the “Big 5”? 2) Go to www.personalitytest.org.uk and compete the Five Factor personality test (results on second page). After reviewing your traits pick one of the 5 traits that you are strong in and write about a time when that trait was a strength for you and a time when having that trait was a weakness. For example, for someone who scores high on Extroversion may find it is a strength when working in a sales department, but a weakness when asked to sit quietly and listen to a proposal for a new way to generate sales. for #2: Can use trait number 2 (Agreeableness or Friendliness) as one of my strong traits. My personal example: when I worked as a pharmacy technician this trait was both a strength and weakness. you can use being nice a as strength in people interaction at the pharmacy checkout and on phone calls (public interaction), but it was a weakness when dealing with irate customers and training other new pharmacy tech’s because it was hard to give them constructive feedback/criticism. 3) How do the 5 personality traits have an impact on our sense of wellbeing and our mood. Give an example of how you see this reflected in your experiences within yourself. #3: For myself and mood, my conscientiousness/dependability trait is a weakness in getting my shift finished because i have to have everything organized and clean up behind others who are not that way which makes me ill at cleaning up behind others My Personality Test Results The test that you have just taken is based on the Five Factor Model of personality. There is a broad consensus amongst personality theorists that this model, which describes five major ‘domains’ or traits, is the best current description of the structure of personality. The five major dimensions, and your scores on them, are described below. Try to interpret your results on the basis of the overall pattern, rather than just concentrating on particular scores. Factor I : Extraversion (AKA Surgency) This trait reflects preference for, and behavior in, social situations. People high in extraversion are energetic and seek out the company of others. Low scorers (introverts) tend to be more quiet and reserved. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (35) is relatively high. Factor II : Agreeableness (AKA Friendliness)…
