NOTE 2: You cannot use the Henkel Company in your project. SECTION 2: DIGITAL AND SOCIAL MEDIA USE How does the company use Digital and Social Media to communicate with their customers? Item 1: List all of the digital and social media platforms the company uses to communicate with customers (including websites, YouTube, e-books, e-mail and various forms of social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Snapchat, Instagram, and blogs).

Include this source as an in-paper citation and on your References page. SECTION 3: ANALYSIS Provide an example of how the company uses digital and/or social media to accomplish an objective (e.g. to address a serious public relations issue, promote a cause, market a product, achieve a strategic advantage by using Big Data, or promote an event). Item 1: Describe the situation or example in detail. Item 2: How successful was the company in accomplishing the objective? Support your answer with reference (s). Item 3: List one thing the company could have done better to accomplish their objective. Be sure to focus on the use of digital or social media here. Item 4: If you decide to discuss the company's use of Big Data to achieve a strategic advantage, does their use of Big Data concern you as a potential customer? Why or why not? To help you with completing Section 3, we have provided two sample topics below: Section 3 Example 1: Target’s Data Breach Target’s December 2013 data breach was a public relations nightmare, but the company responded swiftly over social media, posting safety guidelines on Twitter and keeping an open dialog with its aggrieved customers. Section 3 Example 2: Target’s Use of Big Data Target is renowned in the industry for its data collection practices. Target maintains a customer relationship management database which includes information from in-store purchases (they link all of your purchases to a unique customer identifier) and data they collect externally (e.g. data from Facebook and other sources). Combine the two data streams and Target can predict, with a high degree of certainty, what your gender is, where you live, how far you travel to work, your relationship status, and they can even tell if you are pregnant and if so when you are due. The amount of money spent each year on pregnancy-related purchases is tremendous. In efforts to win the market share in this profit area, Target has hired a team of statisticians to perform predictive analysis. The goal, in this particular situation, is to predict which women are expecting (or soon to be), without asking them directly, by analyzing their purchasing behavior (e.g. cribs, baby clothes, prenatal vitamins, etc.). This way Target can "target" this particular demographic (with coupons, discounts, and other offers) very early, thus getting a jump on the competition. Section 3 Sources: Include at least two sources for Section 3. Include the two sources as in-paper citations and on your References page. At least one source should be professional or scholarly. NOTE 3: You cannot use Target in your project or any company we discussed in class (e.g. Google). Paper Requirements 1. Your paper must follow APA format guidelines throughout. (A sample APA template for you to use is attached to the bottom of this page). Be sure to use the the sample template. a. Double-spaced b. 1-inch Margins c. 12-point size professional font (e.g. Times New Roman) d. Header e. Automatic Page numbers f. Title page g. Reference page 2. Length: Minimum of 1,000; Maximum of 1,500 words. (Title page, Reference page, and direct quotes do not count toward the total word count). NOTE 4: Going over 1,500 words is fine, but if you are under 1,000 you will be penalized (10% or one letter grade) if you have under 900 words. 3. Include one Image. Include at least one table, graph, or image of an appropriate size that is relevant and supports the information provided in your paper. Feel free to create the image if you like.

Complete the code below, some of which is valid code and some pseudo code that needs to be fleshed out and clearly commented. Submit your pseudo code and flowcharts, finished code, and a test run of the code in two documents. Cite all sources which have informed your coding.

Please watch the video below and then introduce yourself to the class.  Address the following items in your post: Your name and nickname (if you have one) and any information you want to tell us about yourself An explanation (in at least 100) words of how the song lyrics or an image or two from the video compares with your concept of the American Dream. When you think of the American Dream, what do you think of?  For some, John Mellencamp's "Little Pink Houses" exemplifies many of the ideals related to the American Dream.  As you watch the video below, think about the images presented both in the song lyrics and the video.  How do these images relate to your understanding of the American Dream? Click here for song lyrics (a new window will open)Part 2 Post 1: Both Young Goodman Brown and Rip Van Winkle go on a journey (of sorts).  Compare at least one specific aspect of their journeys that is similar.  Compare at least one specific aspect of their journeys that is different.  In each case, explain how each character is changed by his journey.
