You will need to write a critical literature review based on the list of topics provided to you….
Overview
A critical review of literature should help you as a researcher get familiar with the relevant knowledge related to topic area of interest.
Assessment brief
You will need to write a critical literature review based on the list of topics provided to you. Once you have chosen your topic, you will need to refine the topic further and find a suitable context to address for your literature review. This process will require you to define your problem statement.
For example, if you were to choose topic “Workplace diversity”, you will need to ask yourself the following:
1. What specific aspect of workplace diversity am I focusing on? Gender? Ethnicity?
2. How is this specific aspect of workplace diversity a relevant problem/issue/topic of discussion today?
Your critical literature review should cover the following:
1. Introduction
• Describe the background of the research. Why is your topic so relevant to business organizations today?
• Describe the purpose of your critical literature review. What does your literature review seek to understand better or solve? What is your research question?
2. Methods
• Describe your approach for finding the literature. This includes details about your article selection process such as the databases you have used, search terms, as well as your inclusion/exclusion criteria
3. Body
• Organize the information that you have found about your chosen topic. What were the key themes that have emerged from existing literature?
• Discuss and objectively critique the existing knowledge in your chosen topic area. What have existing scholars in the area found? Are they inconsistencies or disagreements between specific issues?
• What were some of the key theories being examined, and how have various scholars in the area applied/used them?
4. Conclusion
• Summarize the main themes you identified and how it relates back to answering your research question
• Identify the research gaps. What has existing research not explored, or adequately addressed yet?
*Please ensure that organize and structure your literature review by coming up with your own headings/ sub-headings. Do not simply use Introduction, methods

Community health centers have long served as a health care safety net for vulnerable populations such as the underinsured and uninsured. Community health centers provide primary, dental, and urgent care. They are located in a federally-designated medically underserved area (MUA), or they serve medically underserved populations (MUP).
Complete the following for this assignment:
Visit a community health center Web site.
Describe the mission and goals of the center, the services provided by the center, and the case mix of the participants.

Scenario
This assignment is based on the organisation known as Bazaar Ceramics and it will build on the Dynamic Websites Practical Task and Written assignments you have done so far. The client Emma Rich, is impressed with the progress of the website and would now like to see the implementation of member’s authentication enabling members to logon and access content unique to them. She has also asked if it would be possible to allow new members to self-register. She has however, some concerns regarding security and ensuring that not just anyone can gain access to the member’s page.
The other thing she has been asking about is the ability to order online. She is satisfied with what has been developed so far but is wondering how this can be incorporated into Bazaar Ceramics information processing system.
Your supervisor Christopher Dilbert has explained to Emma about the need for setting up customer, product and order details in a database which the website can connect to and interact with. After many meetings with Emma, Christopher and other members of the project team who specialise in database design, a database schema for Bazaar Ceramics has been produced (see Appendix A).
Christopher in consultation with yourself and the other members of the project team has now “nutted” out the next stage of development for the Bazaar Ceramics website.
Firstly he would like you to prepare for Emma Rich an explanation of web security covering authentication and encryption in conjunction with session management. One thing that has piqued her interest was the mention of “salt” in reference to encryption.
For the members pages he has come up with the following requirements:
• a logon page or facility for members to logon to the Members page of the Bazaar Ceramics website.
• the facility for new members to self-register after appropriate validation checks
• a personalised message displayed on the appropriate pages welcoming the member
• verify the existence of an existing member at logon using encryption. If the existing member’s details do not match then they should be redirected back to the logon page
• the member’s credentials should be verified on the appropriate member pages therefore, their details will need to be maintained while they are visiting the site during the same session
• a logoff option that will clear their details
Christopher has asked that you keep the development of these features as efficient by re-using code as much as practicable.
At this stage the development of the website will still be approached as that of a prototype until it is completely deployed.
All pages are to be HTML5 compliant.

Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.
In 1944, finance specialists and bankers from around the world met to discuss what the post-WWII monetary system would be. Given the instability of the pre-war period, the goal was to create a new system. The outcome of this was the Bretton Woods system, which had the U.S. dollar as the world reserve currency linked to gold at $35 an ounce. All other currencies were tied to the dollar with limits on how much they could appreciate or depreciate. The system lasted until the 1970s, when the United States decided to move away from gold convertibility. The modern system is based on supply and demand for currency and a managed float. Discuss the following in your main post:
The U.S. dollar remains the world’s reserve currency. Is this good for the United States, and if so, why?
People usually think a “strong” dollar is good. Is this true for U.S. businesses, and does it help or hurt the U.S. balance of payments? -
