You’ve learned about a problem, gained empathy for those who experience the problem, and seen frustrations that arise from using alternative solutions. NOW IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO OFFER SOMETHING BETTER!

This assignment asks you to describe your solution. Rather than constrain your creativity with a template that requires you to answer OUR questions, we ask you to provide a brief description of your solution accompanied by a “pre-totype” (low fidelity prototype) drawing of your product or service offering.

Your written description should explain your solution’s features and the expected benefits it will provide (relative to currently available, frustrating solutions). Your illustration should be of your “object” if it is a product, or people interacting if it is a service (stick figures and speech bubbles are preferred). You will share these illustrations in class (either by holding them up to your camera or via screen sharing), so be sure that they are clear enough for others to see and serve as effective visual aids while you describe your solution to others.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Write a description of your solution in a NEW Word file (we’re not providing a template for this assignment!) that includes an overview as well as a listing of features (attributes of the solution) and benefits (pain relievers and gain creators experienced by others). This MUST be between 100-150 words. You may include bullet lists of features and benefits (complete sentences are not necessary).

2. Illustrate your solution any way you think will be effective when you describe it to others. This should fill an entire page.

3. Paste an image of your illustration at the end of your Word document so it is a new page after your description.

To complete this APA practice assignment, first choose a current news story. Then, locate at least three (3) different versions of the news story from different (credible) sources. Be sure to avoid any sources that are likely to be conspiracy theory sites, bought-and-paid-for research, or any other type of “incredible” source.

Second, you will be comparing the coverage of the general news story as it is laid out in the three different news sources. In one paragraph, briefly describe how each source discusses the basic story differently. Be sure to internally cite each of the three sources as they are discussed, and if you use any direct quotations be very clear in both quoting and citing those sources.

Third, find two (2) scholarly sources that help illustrate the claim you are making about how the story is told differently in different sources. Scholarly sources to back your analysis will help reinforce the value of your claim. In a second paragraph, use these sources to explain what you see happening in the ways the news story is told, citing the two scholarly sources, and any of the news sources that are directly referenced again.

Finally, write your reference page including all of the sources you cited in the two paragraph mini-essay. Be sure the reference page is correctly formatted in APA.

If you choose to use the built-in Microsoft Word citation builder and/or the APA paper template, be sure you enter the information into the correct data sections. Journal titles, magazine titles, and other similar title entries are a common error people make using that technology. If you are using one of the library databases, it’s not always easy to find that information. If you have questions or are unsure, check with the professor or a librarian. They will be happy to help.

Citing your sources: Your essay should draw upon readings provided ONLY. Please use in-text citations to identify your sources; two examples are provided, below. Following your essay, include a list of references cited. In-text citation examples:

1. Disruptive innovation and ambidexterity (Connect, Perform)

Complete the following sentence with the correct term related to innovation.

Engaging in innovation requires a looser structure, while implementing new ideas requires a more rigid structure. Organizations can meet both needs by using     .

Read the case study below and then answer the question.

Management at Work

Newspapers are under tremendous pressure to stay relevant as people increasingly turn to the Internet for news and feature articles. In response, many newspapers have enhanced their websites by adding more content, including podcasts, videos, and reporters’ blogs, and publishing breaking news on their websites well before the next edition of the newspaper goes to press. They then sell advertising on the website, and some put content behind a “paywall,” requiring users to purchase access through a subscription. For the most part, growth in revenues from online advertising and subscriptions has not offset losses of revenues from the print edition.

Ironically, as newspapers join the many other media companies that publish journalism online, there is that much more reason for people to cancel their subscriptions to the hard-copy edition and read the paper online. The newspaper companies are thus fueling the very trend that is leading to their demise.

Over the last year, the Central Times publishing company has invested heavily in its online presence. Its subscriptions manager recently surveyed people who had let their subscription lapse in the previous six months. Of those who responded, 86 percent said they no longer subscribe because they read the paper online. In response to the survey results, the publisher calls the editor in chief into her office and says, “Jax, I want you to pull together a cross-functional team that will prepare the paper to go entirely online within two years. Put them in the wing of the building we don’t use anymore since we had to let a third of our reporting staff go. They’ll report directly to you.”

If the publisher of Central Times wanted to use reverse innovation to increase profits, what might she do?

Figure out a way to print and distribute a very inexpensive newspaper that people want to read in Haiti, then use the same technology and processes to revamp Central Times in the United States

Gradually reduce the size and coverage of Central Times while developing another business, such as book publishing, and then ending the newspaper

Benchmark best practices at newspapers that are facing the same competitive pressure from the Internet but have maintained their profits

Exactly what she is doing: appoint a cross-functional team to operate independently from the rest of the company so the newspaper can

In today’s class, there will be a guest lecturer who gives a seminar about global climate change in the perspective of atmospheric chemistry.

1. For the class activity, please list 10 surprising facts that you learned from this class. For each fact, you need to write at least three sentences to describe what the fact is about.

Part I: Written Deliverable
In approximately 2 pages (single-spaced), please answer the following questions regarding the account
you’ve selected from the list above.
a) Briefly describe the U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles relevant to the revenue
account (e.g., when is revenue recognized?).

AICPA standards) related to auditing the revenue account. Describe procedures that would be
useful to test the relevant assertions.
a. PCAOB Auditing Standards: https://pcaobus.org/oversight/standards/auditing-standards
b. AICPA Statements on Auditing Standards:
