I’m studying for my English class and need an explanation.

In the Celebrity & Privacy module, we looked at multiple sources that discuss how expectations of privacy change when we look at the role of celebrities and public figures. For this discussion, choose a particular celebrity that you follow or are interested in. Note, this does not have to be the typical celebrity (movie star, musician, etc.). It can be anyone with a large following or fan base. So that could be an athlete, a politician/leader, author, activist, YouTuber, “influencer,” etc.

Describe the primary way that this person interacts with their audience/fan base. How do you or other fans get access to information about the person? Is it direct, indirect? What platforms or media might you use?

Then discuss how this person feels about access to them. You might need to guess a little based on their interactions with fans or direct statements they have made about being a celebrity/leader.

Then discuss whether you think it is important to have access to celebrities and whether or not they surrender some of their rights to privacy when they choose a profession that puts them in the spotlight.

After your initial post, follow-up with at least 3 of your peers. Discuss their perspective on celebrity and privacy and how your chosen celebrity sees privacy in a similar or dissimilar way.

The Research Approval Process

The early years of the 20th century were host to a number of unethical research studies. Research involving the way that a young child reacts to and generalizes fear responses, medical experiments conducted in concentration camps, and observing the way people respond to authority were just a few of the most famous experiments whose byproduct was placing clients in physical pain and/or mental anguish. Since then, it has been recognized that research subjects need to be protected from the flagrant disregard of researchers. This week, you consider the guidelines in Walden University’s Institutional Review Board (IRB) document, “Research Ethics FAQs for Doctoral Students in the Clinical/Intervention Fields: Practical Tips for Avoiding Delays and Problems in the Research Approval Process.”

Post A 250 WORD description of two ways the guidelines in Walden University’s IRB document may impact the selection of a research population, research setting, and/or research design. Please use the resources to support your answer.

I tend to think this should be one of the first chapters we study.  

During the years immediately after the Bush recession one of the arguements we often heard was that we could not spend money on the environment without damaging the the economic recovery.  

Why was this wrong? 

Can we realistically separate the environment from economic activity?

What would have been the effects of spending money on environmental projects on the economy?
