Public Policy Formulation and Implementation in Public Organizations

  Overview

In this module, you will learn about public policy formulation and implementation in public organizations. Historically, the 1980’s ushered in another period of sweeping change, this time representing a major shift in political and economic values in the United States. Beginning with the election of President Ronald Reagan, a new path was charted at the federal level based on more conservative philosophies of less government and less regulation, new federalism, strength through defense, supply side economics, and the re-alignment of public sector and private sector roles through privatization. Some politically elected executives in previous decades had clamored for a more businesslike government, but this period of conservative activism would see much more decisive action. Fittingly, it was initiated by the Reagan Administration’s promise of a series of tax cuts and expenditure reductions that would lead to increased pressure to contract out increasingly more government functions and thus promote privatization of the public sector. These contractions in the domestic spending side within the public sector were also designed to place more responsibilities on state and local governments.

Learning Outcomes

• Upon successful completion of this module, you will be able to:

• Categorize five ways to administer public policies and programs.
• Relate the role of political mistrust and chronic fiscal stress to the impact on public policy.
• Trace the origins of a renewed commitment to training and customer service and empowerment of employees.
• Explain why public policy has become increasingly more complex.
• Evaluate the need for more sophisticated recruiting, training, and systematic approaches to job enrichment and performance.

HUB of Analytics Education Donation Solicitation and Collection Process

HUB of Analytics Education is a non-profit organization headquartered in Boston, MA. Their website is HUBae.org.

They provide open educational resources to faculty interested in infusing Big Data Analytics into their curriculum.

They recently became a separate 501(c)3 organization in May 2018. They are in the process of developing organizational processes for Editorial Submissions, Purchasing, and Donations (Solicitation and Collection).

They do not have the expertise to design their own process manuals or flowcharts. They would like you to focus on the Donation Solicitation and Collection Process.

Required:

Gain an understanding of a donation process based on review of the non-profit industry. Based on your understanding of the process, identify the risks, how you would respond to those risks, and create a process manual and flowchart for HUB of Analytics Education.

Deliverables:

Identified Risks and the Related Risk Response

Donation Solicitation and Collection Process Manual with the Risk Responses (Accept and Control) built into the Manual.

Donation Solicitation and Collection Process Flowchart with the Risk Responses (Accept and Control) built into the Manual.

DO NOT PLAGIERIZE!

1-3 pages double space, between 800-1000 words in
Times New Roman 12). discuss, NOT SUMMARIZE the book. Each review has to deal with following three questions.
What is the author’s (1) aim (normally directly or indirectly stated in the preface or
introduction); (2) how has the author argued the material (methodology and argument), and (3)
what is your general evaluation of the book (this is your own evaluation of the book)? A quick
reminder that the three questions comprise the “introduction, the argument, and the conclusion”
of your review.

Political Science 1 –Reading Response Guidelines Length: 500 words minimum, 1000 word maximumFormat: Single-spaced, 12pt font, 1 inch margins, no title pageCitation style: Chicago Style (find instructions here: https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide.html)# of citations: You should cite the supplemental reading/podcast, your textbook, and one credible outside source (I will discuss what counts as “credible” in class)Submission details: No hard copies will be submitted to me, all papers are to be submitted in Canvas under the “assignments” tab You are only required to complete 4 out of 5 reading responses. I don’t accept a 5th paper for extra points, I will give you an opportunity to re-write 1 response. A reading response should accomplish two primary things: first, it should summarize the text and second, it should evaluate that text. All supplemental readings/podcasts are non-traditional (meaning they’re not out of a textbook) and take some sort of stance on a particular political issue or topic. The author’s may be right, they may be wrong, they may do a poor job of shedding light on or explaining a political phenomenon, etc. In these reading responses, you will take a position and judge these authors their interpretations the political world. Your paper should be organized as follows:Introduction: This should be written last; I should be able to read it and know exactly what your paper is about and what you will argue. Tell me how your paper will be organized and don’t be afraid to say “I.” The last sentence of your introduction will have your thesis statement. Example thesis format: In this paper, I will argue _________ because of _________. Body paragraph 1:Brifely outline the main ideas of the supplementary reading & connect it to theories, concepts, ideas, historical explanations found in the textbook Example paragraph format:o Topic sentenceo Commentaryo Text support (direct quote or summary)o Analysiso Transition Body paragraph 2: In this paragraph, you should evaluate the text and the author’s claims. You don’t have to simply disagree or agree with the author- maybe they are right about some things and wrong about other. Use your own understanding of American politics (via your family, job, school, childhood) to reject some of the author’s claims, add to them, or confirm them. Use qualitative data (personal stories, interviews, literature, historical examples), or quantitative data (statistics, numbers), or reasoning skills (maybe the author contradicts themself). Or all of the above! Conclusion: Don’t simply re-summarize your paper. Instead, connect the topic to the bigger picture of American Politics. Maybe raise questions you still have—hint at areas for further exploration. Answer the “so what?” question; why does this stuff even matter? Why should we care?

Use the Venn Diagrams below to identify and compare/contrast the different types of media that could be used to create art. Each circle represents one specific media type. List qualities that are unique to that media type in these circles. Common elements of the media types are represented by the areas where the circles overlap in the middle. Media types to choose from include painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, mixed media, and printmaking. Using the information you have listed within the Diagrams, write a 2-3 paragraph summary for each comparison set (Venn Diagram) which further explains and analyzes the similarities and differences between each media type analyzed.
