SCS 200 Project Two Guidelines and Rubric

Overview Professionals in the social sciences investigate human behavior and society for the

purpose of understanding why people act the way they do. This investigation can help address a wide

variety of social issues, such as the role of social media in the Arab Spring protests, the impact of social

skills on future success, racial factors in police violence, and how partitioned grocery carts can help

shoppers purchase healthier foods. Social scientists can help address issues such as these through

research and investigation. For the second project in this course, you will build on the work completed in

Project One and develop a presentation for the audience you identified in Project One. In your

presentation, you will explain how social scientific thinking has affected you and discuss the impact of

the issue on your audience, supporting your claims with evidence. Project Two addresses the following

course outcomes: ● Illustrate the impact of social scientific thinking on personal and professional

experiences • Communicate effectively to specific audiences in examining fundamental aspects of

human behavior. Utilize evidence-based approaches in drawing conclusions about the impact of

contemporary issues on individuals and society.

Prompt In Project Two, you will use the research investigation you wrote for Project One to

create a presentation that explains how social scientific thinking has affected you and discusses the

impact of your selected issue on your audience.

Be sure to include your research question on the first slide of your presentation.

Note 1: Show all your work to get credit. Write your solutions clearly and neatly.

Note 2: All your answers must be your original work. Cite your sources (if any) properly and

include them in a references section at the end.

Note 3: Question 1 is worth 20 points and questions 2 and 3 are worth 15 points each.

1. Chapter 8: In your work environment select a process that is dysfunctional.

a) Depict the process using a swimlane diagram. Make sure all the steps of the process and

the arrows used to show the flow are clearly illustrated in your chart. See Figure 8.4 on

page 332 of the textbook for an example.

b) Develop a 5w2h framework for the process. Use the questions presented in Table 8.1 on

page 336 for the process analysis.

c) Discuss opportunities to improve the process.

2. Chapter 9: Find an academic journal article about the use of theory of constraints (TOC)

in healthcare. Briefly discuss the important points and findings of the article in your own

words and provide your comments (about 300-400 words). Start your discussion by citing

the article.

3. Chapter 10: Provide your answer to one of the options below (not both).

Option 1: Problem 1 of Chapter 10 on page 440 about weekly scheduling of lab technicians.

Clearly define the decision variables and the objective function in your answer and explain

the constraints. Excel Solver can be used to solve for the model.

Option 2: Chapter 10 discusses three types of scheduling: staff scheduling, job scheduling,

and patient appointment scheduling. Provide two examples for any of these types of

scheduling from your experience that are inefficient. Discuss the inefficiencies and

recommend a scheduling method from the ones discussed in the textbook. Explain how the

recommended model could help to improve the inefficiencies you discussed.
