...9 ON Writing about a case builds on the process of analyzing a case.The case situations described in previous chapters can be used to organize essays. An essay arguing a decision is organized in a different way from one offering a problem diagnosis.The structure of problem, decision, and evaluation essays is described in chapters 10 through 12, respectively. The chapters also include cases and sample essays about them. The essays are based on the writing of MBA students. To convince a reader that a conclusion about a case is valid, the writer must offer credible evidence linked directly to the conclusion. This fact helps explain the characteristics case-based essays have in common: 1. Answers two questions—What? Why?—and often a third—How? 2. Makes a position statement (What?) OT C CHAR ACTERISTICS OF A PERSUA SIVE C A SE ESSAY OP riting about a case is very different from talking about it.You collaborate with others in a discussion, bringing to bear everyone’s background and case preparation along with the instructor’s knowledge and facilitation skills. But you usually work on your own when writing about a case.You have to perform the entire analysis yourself as well as organize and express your thinking for a reader. However, the difference between talking and writing about a case runs deeper still.Audiences have much more exacting expectations of a text than they do of spoken comments. Logical gaps and the back-and-fill tolerable in a discussion are a major...

...Question 1: Forecasting (9 marks) Each Friday, Smith Machine Parts (SMP) LTD has to forecast the next week’s demand for brackets #357, #358 and #359. For many years, this has been done reasonably well by Joe Smith, who recently retired. When asked how he made his forecasts, Joe said (between puffs on his corn cob pipe), “Well, I looks at the bubbles on me beer, and I rubs me lucky rabbit foot, and the forecast comes to me maid.” SMP has asked three of its analysts to propose scientific forecasting systems to replace old Joe. The forecasters and the proposed methods are as follows: A. Allen: three-week moving average B. Black: exponential smoothing with ( = 0.2 C. Clark: simple linear regression using the previous 6 weeks of data Each of the three forecasters has been assigned one bracket. The demand for the past six weeks (in thousands of brackets) is given below, as well as the forecasts obtained with the three suggested methods: |Bracket #357 (three-week moving average): | |Bracket #358 (exp. smoothing with ( = 0.2): | |Week # |Demand |Forecast | |Week # |Demand |Forecast | | | | | | | | | |1 | |- | |1 ...

...ESSAY ON ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF A GOOD TEACHER About My Subject: My subject is to teach Arabic as second Language for adult students from different Races and ethnicities. I have students from different cultural background. Some of my students are from Pakistani Families, some are Bengali Families, Indian Families, Kenyan Families and few of them are originally from British Background. I also have two Irish students too. It is very challenging because of different background of the students and it is very difficult because of different level of skills of Arabic Language. Some of the students are familiar with Arabic Alphabets, few words and few sentences because of their Muslim background. Many Muslims speak Urdu as their common language of communication which includes Arabic Alphabets and words. Some are learning Arabic for the first time, as beginners. Their level of learning skill is very low. Hence, it is very challenging that to teach such group and complete the aim and achieve the goal. Aim: The aim of the course is to learn reading, writing and speaking Arabic. The students can read, write and speak basic Arabic as a mean to communicate with Arabs and to access to Arabic Literature. Achievement: I am hoping that the students will be able to read, write and speak basic level of Arabic at the completion of the course. Certainly, I cannot expect very high expectations from the students. I cannot expect perfection in any of them. Some of them will achieve excellence...
