cultural revolution -content– Unit 8 Assignment: In the course, cultural revolution is defined as a major change that impacts the way people in a culture lead their lives. This could be anything from a major terrorist attack like September 11, 2001 that impacts a feeling of security, or a change in technology that changes how people interact and work. It could be a positive change such as the fall of Communism in Europe during the 1980s, or a change in attitudes about women or minorities. Cultural revolutions can impact a single country or the global economy. In your own life, a cultural revolution may be a change in religious practice and belief, or an event that restructures the family unit. There are a variety of ways that culture and revolution can be defined, and this will be explored through two interviews. Be prepared for the interview. Check out the document on Interview Protocol in Doc Sharing in order to know what to expect and how to conduct an interview. You will select two people and interview them about the cultural revolutions that have had the most impact upon their lives. You should create at least 4–5 questions to ask, and be prepared to ask follow-up questions if you want more information. The objective is to see the impact of cultural revolutions upon societies, but an effective way to learn about the view of a member in the society is to ask an individual. You will not be required to prepare a transcript of the interviews, but you should take notes so you can answer the Assignment question. The replies to the questions below, Part I and Part II, should be between 500–700 words. I. One at a time, you will want to introduce the person you are interviewing and explain why you chose them for the interview. Then, you will summarize their replies and highlight one or two interesting ways they viewed the cultural revolution as having an impact upon their life. How has this revolution improved or made life more challenging? How have they changed? How has their family changed? After you complete these steps with the first interview, write the same information for the second interview. II. Finally, you should draw conclusions about the process and the answers that were given. Compare and contrast the results of the interviews. Discuss what was similar or different in the replies. What did you learn about how these interview subjects saw their role in society? What is their attitude about the opportunities and challenges of this cultural revolution?

bioethics case study -content– PHIL 443 Bioethics and the Law Memo To: From: Your Name Date: Re: Exam #1: Ethics Case Study Memo Assignment Ethics Case Study Memo Assignment: This assignment requires that you put yourself in a professional situation where an ethical decision has to be made. Write your assessment of the situation and your recommendation in the form of a memo to your employer, colleague, or patient depending on the situation (Please do not write a legal memo). Discuss in the memo your analysis of the situation with mainly reference to ethical requirements and some relevant law. Basically, I am asking you provide an ethical case study analysis but presented in a more formal memo format. In your memo: 1. Tell me who you are writing to in the “to.” Tell me who you are in the “from.” 2. Only briefly discuss the scenario. Assume that the receiving party knows common details. 3. Clearly tell your recipient the ethical problem (issue spotting). 4. Discuss what ethical alternatives you considered (e.g. autonomy vs beneficence). 5. Discuss your selected solution and the reasons for your decision. 6. Discuss, when relevant, how your solution pertains to applicable law. 7. Conclusion: What action do you want the recipient to take? Why did you write the memo? This should be in professional memo format (Microsoft Word has many to choose from such as this one), 1-2 pages single spaced (no more than 2 pages of memo!). Exam #1 Case Study: CHALLENGING ISSUE: CLAIMS OF SIBLINGS – p. 179 Primary focus: Do you think as an ethical matter that Harriet and Henry should proceed with their suit?
