After carefully reading the article you chose in this unit’s second study, prepare a paper about the controversy that began when Arthur Jensen published an article about racial differences in intelligence. Present both sides of the argument, then evaluate which side has the stronger position. Find at least one other scholarly article from the Capella University Library to support your argument. Make sure to reference all articles and other resources you use in APA (6th edition) format.

• Arthur Robert Jensen, Professor Emeritus of educational psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, is known for his work on how and why individuals differ, behaviorally, from one another. In the nature-versus-nurture debate, Jensen is a major proponent of the hereditarian position, which concludes genetics play a significant role in behavioral traits and intelligence.

  Jensen’s most controversial work was published in 1969 in the Harvard Educational Review. It was titled How Much Can We Boost IQ and Scholastic Achievement? Among other things, Jensen (Indiana University, 2007) concluded that “racial differences in average IQ scores are not due to any ‘culture unfairness’ intrinsic to the tests.” The work ignited a firestorm of controversy and became one of the most contentious papers in the history of intelligence research.

  Locate at least two articles through the Capella Library databases and other electronic resources about the controversy surrounding intelligence and race. Choose one article that supports the racial difference position and one that opposes it. Each article you reference should have the proper citations. Resources and citations should be formatted according to APA (6th edition) style and formatting. You will use this research to complete the Unit 4 assignment.

Josh was sitting in his newly renovated office and reminiscing how Kokomo, the mobile apps

company he founded, had grown from a small band with a head count of 5 to a large group

with a head count of 30. His employees, mostly Millennials in their early twenties who were

experts in software design & programming, played a key role in the success of the company.

Specifically, under Josh’s leadership, they had been churning out one popular mobile app

after another via intensive workgroup collaboration.

One challenge currently in Josh’s mind concerns the type of organizational structure that is

appropriate for his company.

Discuss the following organizational structures: bureaucracy vs

team organization vs matrix organization. Examine which of these three organizational

structures is appropriate for Josh’s company and justify your answer.

Philosophy

Philosophy –gives the ability to look at thing in a different perspective

Fundamental question that comes to mind: is to ask the question what is philosophy?

Answer:  There are two ways of understanding the Science, Physical and social science.

1.Etymology -The science of the origin of a word.

– In the case of philosophy it is said to have been derived from the two Greek words  1.Philin

-(love)and 2.Sopia(wisdom)

Therefore from Etymologically speaking philosophy is

–the love of wisdom . However there has not been any agreed upon definition of science called philosophy b/c over the years there has been different start points movements and opinion that  is plurality of philosophical contemplation remained unavailable.

-Hence there are as many definitions of philosophy as there are philosophers. In  rational argumentation in trying to explicate  and comprehend both intra- mental and extra -mental reality.

2.  Physical Science -is based on empirical vermability.

By Intra-mental : we mean those aspects of human reality that a human mind has the ability to think as well as to bring into furision

Ens Reatis: mental construct. Ens Realis cun Funclamentalita will become mental construct with foundation in the fame.

In Etiamental: we mean those aspects of human reality that the human mind has a habit of thinking about without thinking the essences Ex: God Soul. By reality we mean there are some blame the ensemble of the idea of god universe and man-we are meaning creatures.

We have seen the meaning of philosophy it is pertinent to define: Religion so as to see the difference.

We will define religion  as: a fundamental recognition on the part of the humans of a superior, supernatural Omni potent creative being called: Yahweh, Allah  ,Dues  , Dios ..etc who is entitled to obedience reverence and worship.

Myth- is a concatenation of an individual’s mind about some events in human district as it relates to and goddesses heroes and heroine within a particular cultural milieu (environment) which is carried on from one generation to another for an ever growing popularity. It is therefore plausible that the first attempt by all traditional society’s (Egyptians, Greek, Indians, Romans, Chinese). To explain all seemingly unnatural phenomena was through Mythological speculation but with time this gave rise to religious worship and consiculty philosophically investigation and finally scientific analyzation.
