Wk 5 Summative Assessment: Professional Communication Decisions and Responses (Due Wed)
Exam Content
In the workplace, you will often make decisions about communication as well as develop and deliver different types of professional communications. You will need to be able to assess the effect of social media and other digital technologies on business communication. In addition, you will need to be able to incorporate technology into your professional communication, using best practices, to create different communication artifacts. For this assessment, you will develop responses to professional business scenarios, which will demonstrate your ability to apply best practices for composing, revising, and delivering professional communication artifacts.
Preparation
Select 3 of the following scenarios, which were provided in Week 4:
Solicitation for a Charity: You are writing a solicitation for a donation to a charity for animal rescue in your local area. Donations have been down in recent times due to issues such as COVID and inflation. The rescue organization is overflowing with surrendered animals and needs money to feed and house them while trying to find them new homes. Your goal is to engage your reader enough to read through your solicitation and to respond with some money to help the animal rescue.
Employee Improvement Request: You are the manager of an employee at a delivery service who is not meeting job requirement expectations. Employee J has been showing up late for work, missing deliveries, and recently received a traffic citation. Your goal is to motivate the employee to make a positive change in their work behavior. You and your employee do not work at the same location.
Complaint: You are writing to a company to complain about a shirt you ordered online that does not meet your needs. The design has started to peel off the shirt after one washing. You did not wear the item until after the return date had passed, so you didn’t notice the issue until recently. Your goal is to motivate the company to satisfy your request for a replacement or get your money back despite being against their normal policy.
Advertise Your Brand: You have just received your Personal Training and Zumba certifications and have been hired by a local gym that is part of a national corporation. You need to encourage gym members to attend your Zumba classes and hire you to do personal training. You think that providing information on the benefits of weight training and cardio exercise is a great way to build your following.
Circulate a Business Report: You have just completed a report about sales forecasts for your company’s products that you believe would be of great interest to not only your Sales Department manager, but also to other department leaders such as Manufacturing, Procurement, and Marketing, and even those in charge at the international corporate headquarters. You would like their buy-in to make some changes in corporate structure to meet the challenges that this increase in sales will present to the company.
Update Your Clients and Share Changes in Health Benefits Coverage: It’s time for the annual health coverage enrollment, and you manage a number of companies that purchase their health insurance through your insurance agency. You need to inform Human Resources at these companies that some coverages are no longer available, and there has been a price increase across the board. You believe that your insurance agency still offers a competitive package, and your goal is to retain as many of these companies as customers as you can.
Reply to a Job Ad: You have located an ad for a job that you want to apply for. You believe that your qualifications match those listed in the job ad. You need to show the employer that you are an excellent candidate for the job they are advertising.
Consider the following questions for each scenario you selected:
Who is the audience for the business communication?
What is the context for the business communication?
What type of formatting is used for this communication channel?
What types of resources will you use to review your business communication to ensure it is grammatically correct before finalizing it for delivery to the intended audience?
Assessment Deliverable
In Week 4, you determined the appropriate communication channel for each of the above scenarios. This week, you will use the appropriate communication channels to develop responses to the professional business scenarios you selected. For example, if the appropriate communication channel for one of the scenarios is a professional email, then you will write a professional email in response to the scenario. Each scenario has a different preferred communication channel, so you will be writing 3 different types of business communications (i.e., email, social media post, formal written communication) for this assessment. Be sure to use appropriate formatting for each type of business.
Write an argumentative essay that presents and analyzes one impact that social media has in your major, field, or discipline. The focus should be tight, so should it be possible to craft your argument around one social media platform and one group of users, then it is advised to do so (e.g. Law Enforcement’s effective use of Facebook as a policing device to acquire and capture criminal suspects). *I’m a kinesiology major
Audience
Your reader is an instructor that believes writing should be both dynamic and fluid. As a member of academia, he expects academic writing, which demands precise language; however, apart from grammar and mechanics, there are no firm concrete rules to style and tone: just consistency in both. What is on high demand is a fluid, organic structure.
Pet peeves: hates the concept of the 5 paragraph essay; expects language choice to be precise (no vague or inaccurate use of second person pronouns like you)
Writing Requirements
The text must follow the formatting standard of your major (no abstract required or desired)
The text must reach 1500 word count minimum (not including the References/Works Cited page), both in its final draft, and as a peer review rough draft.
The text must include at least 4 outside sources cited in the body paragraphs, as well as in a References/Works Cited page. At minimum, 2 of the outside sources must be a peer-reviewed article accessed through an academic database, underlined in the References/Works Cited page.
Student Sample
Reddit’s Potential to Disseminate Information on Scientific ResearchLinks to an external site
Write an approximately 12-page double-spaced (about 3,000 words) response to one of the topics below:
I am choosing to do my paper on gender equality in medicine, focusing on how male, female, and patients of other genders are treated differently. I feel that this topic is important in getting the correct treatment of all genders so that they get the medical care that they need. In medicine today women tend to be under treated for pain, and in some circumstances are unable to receive treatment that they need or want because of their gender and/or age. I feel that research in this topic is important so that the inequalities can be brought to the attention of others and then maybe someday things can change.
In a short essay, please answer the following question:
What public health or/and epidemiologic achievements have occurred to improve the quality of life worldwide?
Please, support your answer with some examples and references
Vaccine introduction to prevent various deadly infectious diseases is one of the profound epidemiological achievements that have occurred to improve the quality of life worldwide. For instance, measles prevention through the MMR vaccine has ensured a 78% reduction in measles mortality between 2000 and 2020. It is averting 12.7 million deaths that occurred in the previous years (World Health Organization, 2020). Besides, the information provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2019) attests that in 2014, for example, measles-oriented deaths decreased by 79% in 2014.

How attitudes influence behavior
Individual attitudes and behavior are closely connected to each other. An attitude is a set way of thinking or feeling about everything. It is thus a psychological construct through its emotional and mental entity to characterize a person (Liu et al., 2020). Everyone has attitudes shaped by their past life experiences. They influence how we behave around others and vice-versa. Within the work setting, a positive attitude makes one very productive. Besides, such an employee is likely to deal with any obstacle efficiently as well as look at failures as profound means to improve or introspect oneself. This is important rather than losing hope and thus giving up. A positive attitude indeed impacts our behavior, understanding of situations, and what actions we will take in the future….Read More
What factors play a role in work enjoyment? What are some strategies to improve work enjoyment and reduce stress within ABA-based treatment settings?
Work enjoyment is the result of people’s thoughts and feelings about their current employment. If employees are satisfied with their jobs, they feel motivated and happy. Employees feel satisfied when they gain what they have been hoping for from the job. This could include job conditions and corporate social responsibility. Job conditions play a crucial role in influencing the job satisfaction of employees (Mustafa & Ali, 2019). Many elements contribute to the job’s conditions. These conditions include freedom in communication, training, equipment, and how co-workers interact. A poor workplace is most likely one of the fundamental reasons for the high staff turnover rate and poor satisfaction and performance…..Read More
