Sport Obermeyer Demand Forecast
1. You must place orders for at least 50% of the annual demand.
2. There is a limited production capacity (only about 50% of total). The rest is available after the Las Vegas show.
3. The earlier capacity should be used to produce the least risky items.
4. What is risk in this context?
1. Items with high variability in demand (can result in large overstocking).
2. Items that are very expensive (overstocking can be very expensive).
5. For this exercise, we are not considering the price. So, focus only on the variability.
6. Also focus on the minimum production requirement for any item – 600 units.
7. Variability of demand is also called Coefficient of Variation (Std. Deviation/Mean).
8. What operational changes would you recommend to Wally to improve performance?
9. Examine the operations in the China plant. What would you suggest to make this plant more productive?
10. What changes should be made to the way demand forecast is made? Examine how information is collected and suggest better ways to collect this information.
11. Examine the supply chain. What changes would you suggest?

Review
and reflect on the readings and film issues. Consider these questions
and post your responses in the discussion forum. The films include creative expressions of artists working with
constrained conditions of ability. Consider the truth and humanity
expressed in the artists' work.Does Zhang and Haller’s study of disabled audience response to media
characters with disability teach us anything important about our own
media literacy?Consider Shelly Berry’s short films. What are the values of artistic
expression from and for people with disability as well as able body
people?Article 1Consuming Image Reading NotesRead Consuming Image, available in eReserves. The authors conducted study of audience effects for people with
disability from media that represents people with disability and found
“Perceived positive media representation of people with disabilities led
to affirmation of their disability identity even when the media
messages were perceived as unrealistic, whereas negative media
representation led to denial of their disability identity.” According to
the U.S. Census Bureau, about 50 million Americans have a disability,
and about two-thirds of these individuals have a severe disability (U.S.
Department of Labor, 2012). Today, people with disabilities still face
many architectural, occupational, educational, and communication
barriers in the United States.” (319)The 2011 US labor force was 17.8% people with disabilities, but their
unemployment rate was 15% compared to 8.7% for able body people. (319)“In addition to evaluating media representation of disability issues
and the disability community, the study also investigates how media
exposure and the way people with disabilities process media messages
impact their disability identities.” (320)The literature review examines scholarship on these topics.Media representations of people with disabilitiesSocial cognitive theory and its relevancePerceived valencePerceived realism of representations. (323)Zhang and Haller propose four hypotheses.H1: The more attention people with disabilities pay to mass media
for information about disability issues, the more likely they think
media frame people with disabilities as special or superhuman (the
supercrip model).H2: The more attention people with disabilities pay to mass media
for information about disability issues, the more likely they think
media frame disability as illness (the medical model).H3: The more attention people with disabilities pay to mass media
for information about disability issues, the more likely they would
think media frame people with disabilities as disadvantaged and in need
of social or economic support (the social pathology model).H4: The self-identity of people with disabilities will depend on
(a) the valence of portrayals of people with disabilities in the media
to which they have been exposed and (b) the extent to which they
consider these portrayals to be believable and realistic. (324)Discussion of ResultsConsistent with the results from previous content analysis studies
(Clogston, 1990, Haller 1995), people with disabilities believed that
mass media, in general, frame people with disabilities as supercrips,
disadvantaged, or ill victims. Among these three dominant media
representations, most of them are stigmatizing, except the supercrip
model. These negative media representations reinforce the necessity for
disability activists to openly discuss the disabling environment created
by mass media and engage in an effort to promote changes in the social
discourse about disability portrayals because media have the power to
shape what public knows about disability. (329)Zhang and Haller say their “study demonstrates that portraying people
with disabilities as supercrips gives positive feedback to people with
disabilities and affects their self-identity positively. Specifically,
people with disabilities are more likely to develop positive and
confident self-identity when exposed to media stories about the
accomplishments of individuals with disabilities. This finding is
consistent with SCT that perceived reward related to the observed
behaviors can increase self-esteem” (Bandura, 2001).Being aware of the fact that ingroup members have accomplished great
achievements as implied by the supercrip model, people with disabilities
can relate to the media messages and take comfort and feel hope from
the fact that supercrips succeed in spite of a disability and,
therefore, maintain a sanguine self-identity. It is interesting to note
that such positive effects still take place even when people with
disabilities perceive supercrip portrayals as unrealistic. (330)When mass media frame people with disabilities simply as sickly and
helpless victims, people with disabilities are primed with stigmatized
aspects of being disabled, and feel that a disabled person’s life is
inferior to, and less precious than, an able-bodied person’s life and
hence hold low self-esteem about their self-identity. These findings
suggest that the valence of media portrayals of people with disabilities
can impact the identity of disability community. Positive coverage,
such as the supercrip stones of achievement, helps people with
disabilities take a balanced approach toward their identity, whereas
negative coverage makes them not able to envision themselves properly.
This indicates that mass media indeed can influence who we are and what
we do. These findings are important for news media professionals to
understand that how they report a specific group of people has such
profound impacts on that group. (330)The article closes with a quote from Michael Berube (1997) of PSU, who states,In the broadest possible sense, it affects
our understanding of what it means to be human; in more practical
terms, it affects public policy, the allocation of social resources, and
the meaning of civil rights. Every representation of disability has the
potential to shape the way disability is understood in the general
culture, and some of those representations can in fact do
extraordinarily powerful, or harmful, cultural and political work.ReferenceZhang, L., & Haller, B. (2013). Consuming image: How mass media impact the identity of people with disabilities. Communication Quarterly, 61(3), 319–334.Article 2Supercrips Versus The Pitiful Handicapped Reading Notes
Read Supercrips Versus the Pitiful Handicapped, available in eReserves.
This is a study of thirty Israeli describing their most memorable
mediated images of disability. Two stereotypes are identified and
discussed, the supercrip and the pitiful disabled. Examines how
"individuals construct their identities within the social matrix are
relevant to their patterns of sense making of symbolic reality."

Developmental assessment and the school age child
The needs of the pediatric patient differ depending on age, as do the stages of development and the expected assessment findings for each stage. In a 500-750-word paper, examine the needs of a school-aged child between the ages of 5 and 12 years old and discuss the following:
Compare the physical assessments among school-aged children. Describe how you would modify assessment techniques to match the age and developmental stage of the child.
Choose a child between the ages of 5 and 12 years old. Identify the age of the child and describe the typical developmental stages of children that age.
Applying developmental theory based on Erickson, Piaget, or Kohlberg, explain how you would developmentally assess the child. Include how you would offer explanations during the assessment, strategies you would use to gain cooperation, and potential findings from the assessment.

APPLICATION PAPER #1 - WORST COWORKER PAPER, homework help
APPLICATION PAPER #1 - WORST COWORKER PAPERYour paper can focus on either a current coworker or a past coworker. The coworker should be a real person, as opposed to an amalgam of multiple individuals. Moreover, some portions of the paper work better if the coworker is of a similar hierarchical level to you--as opposed to a boss or a supervisor. The paper should include the following three sectionsBackground - Describe the coworker. Give enough detail that it’s clear why you feel the way you do about this person, with enough richness that the section “brings the person to life” for the reader. Feel free to omit or disguise any details that might be sensitive in nature.Explanations - Drawing on key terms from Chapters 4-7, provide an explanation of why, in your estimation, this employee has low levels of job performance and/or organizational commitment. When I say “key terms”, I’m referring to the words that are bolded in the chapters and that appear in the Key Terms section at the end of each chapter. Given the strict page count, you’ll need to strike a balance between breadth of coverage (i.e., the number of key terms mentioned) and depth of coverage (i.e., how detailed your use of a given key term is in explaining the employee’s attitudes and behaviors)Recommendations - Flowing out of the key terms discussed in the previous section, describe what the top managers or leaders in the company could do, very specifically, to improve the performance and/or commitment of your coworker. Then describe what you, personally, could do to make this coworker more effective. Finally, answer the following questions: Is this employee a “problem that cannot be fixed” to some extent? If so, describe what the top managers or leaders in the company could do to avoid similar problems in the future.Beyond the parameters above, please bring your own self-expression, initiative, andcreativity to the content and style of the paper. 80% of the paper grade will revolve around content issues, with 20% revolving around writing style issues. Papers are to be submitted in print, not electronic, on October 20, 2016.This paper should be 3-5 pages in length (double spaced, size 12 font, 1 inch margins). Please do not go over the limit.
