Assignment 2: LASA 1—The Buying Process

Every product or service has a buying process, even digital products and services. In this assignment, you will research and analyze the buying process for an online product or service, with which you (as a consumer) are familiar, from a business point of view.

Begin by researching an online consumer product or service (such as an e-Book from the Kindle store or a movie from the iTunes store). Choose an online product or service with which you are familiar and have purchased in the past.

Next, write a report to evaluate its buying process from the marketer’s point of view using the five stages of the buying decision process.

Remember, the five stages are as follows:

1. Problem recognition 
2. Search and determination of alternatives 
3. Evaluation of alternatives 
4. Purchase decision 
5. Post-purchase evaluation

Note: Use the grading criteria for this assignment to guide your report. Be sure to include these details within your evaluation to support your ideas.

LASA 1 Grading Criteria

I need to write essay based on the paper that i uploud it.

• The 3 artworks chosen must be of the same style or time period. For example, you can choose oneof the following suggestions:
  • 3 Baroque works of art, or
  • 3 Impressionist works of art, or
  • 3 Abstract Expressionist works of art, etc.
• Your three (3) works of art should have a similar theme. For example: 3 landscapes, or 3 works that focus on religious content, etc. 
• Outof the three works of art by the three (3) artists selected,you must choose at least two (2) works from two artists discussed in the textbook.
• If you decide to choose one work of art that is not from the textbook, the artists must be discussed in the text. Begin your search by reviewing artists in the text. Then you can search other Internet sources for their other works of art.

This project is broken down into two parts.

1. In Unit 4, you will work on the first three bullet points, which are highlighted in bold below, as well as an introduction and conclusion.
2. The “final draft,” will be completed for Unit 5, and will cover the last two bullet points (listed in the Unit 5 Individual Project assignment).

Your final paper will be a 1200–1500 word critical essay about the three works of art you have chosen. The goals of a critical essay are to evaluate and analyze the artworks based on research, using the vocabulary and concepts you have learned. Your attitude should be detached (i.e., your personal opinions are not as important as academic concepts; The “critical” aspect of the essay refers to this detached attitude, not whether you react positively or negatively to the works).

Your essay must include the following points:

1. A description of the works including the style. Describe basic facts, as well as the visual appearance of the work (What does the viewer see? Where are key figures located? What tells us that the work is of a particular style?)
2. A summary of the artists’ personal philosophies of art (if they can be found in published sources), and the prevailing trends and schools of thought in the art world at the time and in the place the artist was working. For instance, discuss what was taking place in each artist’s city, country, and/or church that may have provoked a reaction from the artist or the greater society. Include any information that might help the reader understand the artist’s point of view or why the artist made his or her choices in this work of art.
3. An explanation of how the works fit into the context of the time period.
4. Compare the three works in terms of form, content, and subject matter. Using the terminology and concepts that you have learned in the course, explain the similarities and differences in the styles of the works and the context in which they were made.
5. Compare and contrast their aesthetic qualities and symbolic significance, as well as the artists’ points of view. Your personal point of view that you have developed throughout the paper will be summarized here. As with the preceding three sections, you will write in your own words, supported by research.

B. Required Discussion Board assignment.

On the Discussion Board, post 150–500 words (not including references) arguing your position (either agree or disagree) regarding the following statement:

Social, political, or economic conditions can alter the nature and meaning of art.

• Be certain to support your position with examples that compare and contrast at least two of the following eras: Baroque, Rococo, Neoclassicism, and Romanticism.
• Choose specific examples of artistic achievements from the two eras.
• Examples can be drawn from architecture, painting, printmaking, or sculpture

An undergraduate psychology degree provides you with some flexibility when selecting a career. The knowledge of how people think, develop, and behave, as well as the interpersonal skills gained from a BA in psychology may lead to work in the field, but also prepares you well for careers in the fields of public service, marketing, or management, among others. Because most professional careers in psychology require further education, those who do not wish to pursue graduate degrees may need to broaden the scope of careers they are willing to consider.

In M1 Assignment 2, you explored your career interests and identified three careers that seemed best suited for you. In this assignment, you will conduct a mock job search and report your findings using the “Job Search Data Bank” form.

Mock Job Search

Select one of the three careers you identified and discussed in M1 Assignment 2 and conduct a job search for actual openings in your area. If you are willing to eventually relocate, you may choose openings elsewhere as well. You may choose to use at least one source or all of the following sources to find available positions in your chosen career of interest:

• Local newspaper ads (online or printed editions)
• Networking websites such as LinkedIn
• Networking with colleagues, peers, or other contacts
• Your state employment office
• Listings on professional organizations’ websites

Refer to the “Job Resources” document to find additional online sources relating to online job searches.

Job Search Data Bank

Click here to download and review a copy of the “Job Search Data Bank” template. Provide the results of the mock job search you completed for this assignment by filling out the table in the template.

• Begin by summarizing your career interests. Briefly describe what you concluded from Module 1 about the types of positions best suited to your career interests. For example, if you are most interested in a career as a psychologist, would you prefer to pursue a position in a clinic, a private practice, or a nonprofit organization? Would you prefer to specialize in working with children? Do you hope to have a research or teaching position instead?
• List at least four positions you found during your job search. These four positions should match the interests you identified in Module 1.
• Describe each position fully, providing as much of the available information as possible from the ads. Copy the ads and paste them into the table.
• For each identified job opening, indicate the likelihood of your being eligible for the position upon graduating from college with a bachelor’s degree.
• If you would be ineligible, specify what additional training or education you would require to qualify for the position.
• Indicate whether you are willing to pursue that additional training or education.
• Describe the amount of time, the cost, and other resources you think you would need to invest to become qualified.
• Put the information in your own words. Place quotation marks around the portions you have quoted from the ads. Cite your sources using APA style in-text citations and a reference list in APA style below your table in the “Job Search Data Bank” template provided.
