Background: Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle had a monumental effect on the meat packing industry in the early 1900’s in the United States. His
intention, however, was to affect change in the treatment of the workers. He said, “I aimed for the public’s heart, and, by accident, hit it in
the stomach.” The nauseating descriptions of meat packing jump off of the page, but the deplorable treatment of the working immigrants is the
intended focus of Sinclair’s book. It is said, of Elzbieta’s day, “It was stupefying, brutalizing work; it left her no time to think, no
strength for anything. She was part of the machine she tended, and every faculty that was not needed for the machine was doomed to be crushed
out of existence.”
Post Instructions: When you read Chapter 14 of The Jungle, were you immediately struck by the nauseating descriptions of the meat packing or by
the dehumanizing descriptions of the poor and abused immigrant workers? Why?
Length Requirement: All original posts for this course must be at least 100 words. And, remember, because this is still an English course,
everything you write will be graded for grammar and style.

One ofthe components that is often missing from the evaluation papers I grade are specific production details about each film or video for the
evaluation
essay. These details include the release date. the production company and the director. for instance. They need to be woven into your sentences like
this:
Released in 2009 by Warner Brother Films. Siumdog Millionaire revolves around the life of an orphan who rises from the Mumbai slums to star status as a
game show contestant.
Or.
In his October 2015 presentation for TedTaIks- University of Colorado in Colorado Springs professor Chris Bell contemplates the lack of female super
heroes
in our culture.
If examining films. it is also important that students introduce the characters in the film and the actors or actresses who portray them in a
streamlined
process- Here is an example:
Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) and Jenny (Robin Wright) encounter nearly every key event that defined the 6os and 703.
Here is your assignment: Please gather the following information about your two films or videos to include in your paper due next week- A good resource
for
this information is the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) or the introductory paragraphs to each Ted Talks video. You will only answer one set of questions
below based on whether you have chosen films or Ted Talk videos:
If you have chosen two films. answer these questions:
1- What is the release date for each film?
2- Who is the director of each film?
3- List four key characters (actors or actresses who portray them)-
4- In what era is each film set?
5- Where is the setting for each film?
Or, if you have chosen to TedTaIk videos or documentaries, answer these questions:
1- What is the date of each presentation?
2- What specific biographical details can you include for each Ted Talks speaker?
3- What city or campus hosted each Ted Talk video?
4. What appears to be the problem addressed for each Ted Talk video? For instance. Chris Bell’s presentation is concerns the lack of female
superheroes.
5- What visual aids or examples does the Ted Talk speaker use to convey his or her points?

Digital Marketing plan for a Fortune 500 company
The Goal:
Create a 2016 Digital Marketing Plan for a Fortune 500 company. You have $1 million in advertising dollars to allocate between paid search
marketing, affiliate program(s), banner ads, and email campaigns. Your campaign will run from 6/1/16 to 6/30/16 across the channels you choose.
The Process:
Select one company from Fortune magazine’s “World’s Most Admired Companies”. (see link below) (*You may select a different company with approval.)
Determine what the overall strategy for the company would be: brand awareness, direct response or lead generation.
Describe how you would allocate the money and why. Your choices should be based on measurable attributes and calculations. Do not just allocate
money to a channel for no reason. I’ve included cost information for each channel below. You’ll have to estimate orders (for DR companies) and or
“actions” for any company that is collecting customer lead information. You’ll need to calculate overall spend by channel for brand awareness
clients. Be sure to spend the full media budget in the best way possible based on the company’s needs and the goals of the strategy you select.
You’ll need to calculate cost for each channel in order to determine how the money is being used. A “calculated metrics” table can be found at the
end if you need help with what metrics to calculate.
Identify what the major theme or key message would be for each channel. For example, if you choose Apple, the overall message might be “The
Greenest Computers on Earth”. Describe how you would translate that message to each medium/channel.
EXAMPLES:
Display: Banner ads would display a computer with green grass growing around it.
Email: Subject Line: Buy the greenest computer on earth. Inside the email you would see “Buy Now” links with a “grass” background.
Search Keywords: green computer, green computers, apple computer, green apple computer, etc.
Affiliate: Launch onto computer review websites such as engadget.com.
Do not take the above to be complete examples. Your answers should be much more thought out and complete. Use real world examples as inspiration.
Be as creative as you can.
Plan the “flight dates” for each channel. You decide when and for how long each channel should run. You may choose to do two email blasts during
the four weeks, have banner ads live for all four weeks and run a paid search campaign for the middle two weeks. Provide the dates and the reason
you would choose the flight date for each channel.

The Format:
• 4 to 6 pages
• 1 inch margins
• 12 point font (11 point font is ok)
• Double spaced
• Microsoft Word format (preferably) but PDF, MS Works, or Open Office formats are acceptable as well.
Feel free to include any Excel files for supporting information including any metrics, numbers, formulas and calculations.
The Points:
The final paper/project is worth a maximum of 108 points. It will be graded on the completeness of your answer. In other words, did you have a
fully thought out Marketing Plan with examples, calculated metrics and estimated clicks, orders, or other key performance indicators (KPI’s)?
The Channel Costs:
Note: These tables can also be found in the MKT 595 Final Excel file on D2L. All company names are made up.
The following tables show the costs and metrics for three different agencies (aka providers) that will be running and launching your campaigns for
you. If you choose Aquina’s email service, then calculate the costs for using their service based on the tables laid out below.
Any Combination: Be Creative
You may choose Stellaron for Paid Search and Zenix for their affiliate services. Any combination of the below can be used. Note that the cost per
email listed below is for “blocks” so you may choose to send 200,000 emails through Aquina. The cost would be $.09 times 200,000 emails or
$18,000. Also note that the impressions and actions listed below are per week so if you plan on running the channel for all four weeks of the
program, you’ll have to calculate the cost for that time period. You can choose to run a channel for as long or as little as you’d like.

WINSTON CHURCHILL’S IRON CURTAIN SPEECH
There are many ways to get a feel for the events of the 20th Century. One way is through the analysis of primary source documents. Few
documents set the stage for the second half than Winston Churchill’s 1946 speech in Fulton, Missouri. Officially entitled “The Sinews of
Peace”, it came to be known as “The Iron Curtain Speech”, in which Churchill laid out the challenges for the West in general, and the US and
Britain in particular, regarding what would soon be known as the Cold War. Your assignment this week is to not just read Churchill’s speech,
but read between the lines to answer the following questions in a well written 2-3 page document:
1. Churchill believes the Soviet Union “desires the fruits of war and the indefinite expansion of their power and doctrines.” How might
those expansionist desires challenge the Western principle of national political self determination, a cause it championed during World War 2?
2. Churchill’s speech acknowledges “Russia’s need to be secure on her western borders,” but at the same time it raises concerns about
Soviet actions in Eastern Europe. Is Churchill being inconsistent? Or does he provide concrete justifications for those concerns?
3. In his speech, Churchill asserts “There is nothing they (the Russians) admire so much as strength, and nothing for which they have less
respect for than military weakness.” If he isn’t advocating a direct military confrontation with the Soviet Union, then what is he saying?
4. Churchill delivered this speech to an American audience, but after reading it one might conclude it could have been given in any western
country. Why did he pick the US?
