For this assignment, you will submit a scenario-based case study course project.
For this assignment, you will submit a scenario-based case study course project. Look at fire protection technology in a holistic way that is significantly different from what was previously designed by thinking in isolation. You will evaluate and develop recommendations to resolve potential fires in the future.
Section IAs we saw in the Unit III lesson, written plans, procedures, and work practices are needed in any organization, no matter how large or small they may be. Written plans and procedures point out unforeseen hazards or emergencies to the organization, employees, or even the public. Based on the scenario in the unit lesson and the information above, discuss what is an emergency action plan. What are procedures and work practices? Describe the designated actions employers and employees should take to ensure employee safety from fire and other emergencies after the warehouse is rebuilt.
Section IIPrepare a well-organized narrative addressing the existing fire protection, detection, and suppression systems for the warehouse in the Points to Ponder Scenario. Your discussion will consist of your evaluation of the previous fire protection, detection, and suppression systems. In addition, your recommendations for the rebuild of the warehouse should include the advantages that these systems have on life safety and loss prevention. Make sure to include emerging technologies related to fire protection systems that you recommend, and differentiate between the types of fire protection systems you believe would protect employees and visitors.
As you make suggestions to improve life, safety, and fire protection, refer to the background information, if needed, to provide you with the necessary material to identify the basic components common to fire protection for the City of Washington Distribution Warehouse.
Building upon the background information, as firefighters entered the structure, they had to wade through large amounts of product debris falling from the high-rack storage, and smaller debris was floating out of the loading dock doors. The products piled in the high racks hindered the operation of the in-rack sprinkler heads, allowing the products on the lower shelves to continue burning.
Note: On the fire scene, in order for the firefighters to understand where the fire is located, sides and quadrant designations have been identified as A, B, C, D. The structure faces the street (i.e., the address side), which is normally the front door; this is referred to as Side A. Facing the front door going clockwise, each side then has a letter designation of B, C, D. This means that Side B is on the left, Side C is the rear, and Side D is the right.
Section IIIIt is critical for fire protection design engineers to understand the dynamics of fire and fire behavior. In this section, you should address the areas listed below.
Briefly describe the stages of fire from the ignition phase through decay.
Discuss heat, fuel, oxygen, and a chemical chain reaction (fire tetrahedron) and how it produces flaming (visible fire).
Summarize the benefits of fire protection systems in different types of structures based on fire behavior.
Section IVAs you make suggestions to improve fire detection and alarm systems, refer to the background information of the scenario, if needed, to provide you with the necessary material to identify the basic components common to fire protection for the City of Washington Distribution Warehouse.
This assignment is not looking for compliance with building codes nor expecting you to be a fire protection system designer. However, the purpose of this assignment is for you to apply the concepts and knowledge you learned in this unit, which will cover protection systems that will detect, contain, control, and extinguish a fire. This assignment provides you with the opportunity to use your skills, expertise, and experience to enrich your response.
Prepare a well-organized narrative addressing the fire detection and alarm system, and provide your recommendations after reviewing the background information and information above. Your discussion will consist of your evaluation of the previous fire detection and alarm system. In addition, from reading the textbook chapters and any additional research you conduct about detection and alarm systems, discuss your recommendations for the rebuild of the warehouse. Be sure to include the information below.
Briefly explain the function of a fire alarm control unit.
Categorize the types of audible notification appliances.
Discuss the three types of specialty signals.
For this assignment, you will write a four-page narrative (one page per section) supporting your position. Use APA-Style level one headings for each section. The heading should be indicative of the major section to follow. You must have a title page and references page. You may use information from reputable, reliable journal articles; case studies; scholarly papers; and other sources that you feel are pertinent. You should use at least three sources, of which one must be your textbook. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations following proper APA Style.
Final Project Proposal WHO: This is an individual effort assignment from each st
Final Project Proposal
WHO:
This is an individual effort assignment from each student in the course.
WHAT:
The Final Project Proposal is a written submission in which students identify and discuss the issue(s) surrounding their chosen themes/topics and propose a program, initiative, or activity that will address those issues. For example, a student from a previous semester chose the theme of Climate Change and Natural Disasters for his project package. For the Final Project Product Proposal, he discussed how climate change affects agriculture in South and Central America. Within the proposal, he identified the issue and causes, prior attempts and deficiencies in addressing the issue, and proposed the solution of enhancing global awareness through art (making information pertaining to climate change more appealing and interesting for a targeted audience).
Sample Final Project
Final Project Proposal TemplateActions
Students are required to submit drafts of the Final Project Product Proposal for feedback before submitting the final draft of the proposal.
Part 1:
The problem to be addressed
Problem subtopic
Possible causes and maintaining forces
Background and Justification
Part 2:
Newly proposed deliverable
Evaluation
Here are the recommended completion steps:
View the provided example and the sample template.
The student should select a global healthcare-related topic that truly interests them; they should not feel confined in this process. However, check with the instructor to confirm this topic is “OK.”
Identify a problem within that topic area, and then, write that problem as a research question. <<<<< Take time with this step. Historically, this is what students have struggled with the most. Here is a very brief example:
Topic = WNBA Basketball
Problem = There are not as many teams as the NBA so there is a limited variety of matchups.
Research question/subtopic = Based on past research, what are the major hurdles that are delaying the expansion of the WNBA?
Write part 1 mentioned above.
Identify a possible solution to the research question and substantiate why this is unique and better than previous solutions to the problem.
*NOTE: This will be the catalyst for the dynamic deliverable. For example, If your solution to the lack of teams in the WNBA is to write an NBA bylaw that requires NBA teams to also have a “sister” WNBA team. The dynamic deliverable would be that bylaw. If your solution is to have a TV campaign to encourage fans to write letters to NBA owners (who don’t have a WNBA team) and encourage them to start one, the dynamic deliverable would be an original video of that TV commercial.
Write part 2 mentioned above.
Review to ensure all the required subheadings, from the template, are included and covered.
Example themes/topics/global health problems may include (but are not limited to):
HIV/AIDS
Obesity & Heart Disease
Food/Water Insecurity, Hunger, & Poverty
Medical Tourism
Climate Change & Natural Disasters
Abortion & Family Planning
Universal Healthcare vs. Private Sector Insurance-based Payers
Health & Wellbeing for Nations at War/Unrest
Vaccinations, Genetic Testing, Autism & Developmental Disabilities
Global Health Security & Preparedness for Aggressive Communicable Diseases
LGBT Community Health
Cancer
Euthanasia / Death & Dying

please respond to. ahida with. 200. words
Personally I think it’s better to live life based on motives. I do things based on my happiness, what brings me and the people around me happiness. I don’t care about what the consequences will be, because my motives are always good. This is just the way I am and I think I’ve actually avoided any terrible consequences for any of my decisions because I’ve always had good motives behind them. If things go bad then they go bad, but it’s always possible to have fun and be happy even in the worst situations.
I don’t know, this is a tough question. If you are going to say that the one scientist can cure all the cancers… then I guess it makes sense to save him over the class. If he’s that important to the world, then he can save more people that I can in my position. I think it’s hard, but I also think that there’s more potential to save so many more people.

1) The film focuses heavily on a moral condemnation of capitalism. Do you agree with that approach? Many Marxists prefer what they call a scientific critique of capitalism? Which do you prefer? Which is more effective in touching the experiences of working-class people?
2) How does the film explain the development of the “middle class” in the mid-20th century? What conditions saw the improved standard of living for many working class people?
3) The film notes the Reagan era as a dividing line between the rise of the “middle class” and its current decline. What policies did Reagan usher in and why? What were the results?
4. Corporations repeatedly claim that cutting jobs will allow them to save money and stay in business. Why does this not seem to work much in the examples detailed in the film?
Remember to comment on at least one classmate for credit.
discussion board posts should be at least 150 words and comments should be at least 50.

MIND MAP or GRAPHIC ORGANIZER (1 PAGE) AND WRITE UP (3 FULL PAGE SUMMARY)
ASSIGNMENT:
One of the main themes of this course is how eco-social justice issues are connected. In this unit we had a quick introduction to the idea that animal rights and women’s rights are connected. How true is this argument? To what extent are the rights of animals and women connected? Why are they connected?
Instructions
Answer the questions: To what extent are the rights of animals and women connected? Why are they connected?
Remember that a “to what extent” argument is asking you to make a judgement about “how much” – a little, somewhat, significantly, a lot? Back up your arguments with examples.
Research these questions after reviewing what you already learned in this unit. Some good Google searches to get you started are:
i. Ecofeminism
ii. Animal rights and feminism
iii. Animals and female oppression connections
STRUCTURE OF ASSIGNMENT IS IN THE FORM OF A MIND MAPPING
ON A SECOND PAGE COULD YOU do a write up explaining the mind map in 2 page summary explaining the information so it can be verbally presented.
