Write a 17 page essay on Jet Aircrafts and Aerospace Defence Equipments.

The market for aerospace and defense is highly influenced by other factors such as product development, product differentiation, technological innovations as well as the overall competitive environment. The market for commercial airlines and defense equipment is highly dominated by three major players – Boeing, EADS and Dassault Aviation.

The Boeing Company, founded by William E Boeing in 1916, is a pioneer in the field of aerospace and defense materials. It is the world’s largest global manufacturer and supplier of commercial jetliners and military aircraft, catering to a wide range of markets including the supply of its defense products to the U.S and other allied armed forces across the world and is the second largest1 aerospace and defense contractor in the world.

This is the largest business unit of Boeing so far and is mainly engaged in the process of unit designing and development and manufacturing of commercial jetliners. It boasts of a robust portfolio comprising of a range of products such as the 737 series, which has a seating capacity of up to 150 passengers, 747 series, which accommodates up to 566 passengers, 767 series with a capacity of 325 passengers, and 757 series up to 230 passengers. The company frequently introduces latest models in this segment and is currently working on the Dreamliner, which boasts of an impressive state of the art technology with an aim to provide ultimate ease in traveling to its customers. Boeing’s commercial aircraft sales play a major role in enhancing its brand value and popularity ultimately translating into increased profitability.

The sale of defense products is highly dependent on external factors such as government support – in the form of subsidies, military budgets as well as the political environment. Boeing saw a substantial rise in the demands for its defense and space-related services in the wake of the Iraq war.&nbsp.

 Data Collection Methods

Once you have a purpose, a question, and a design in mind, you will be in a good position to determine the best methods for obtaining a sample and collecting data.

Some of the various sampling and data collection methods, as covered in this week’s readings, can be used across different research designs—quantitative, qualitative, or mixed. Again, as in previous weeks, the important consideration is to ensure that there is alignment among the various components of a research study, including its purpose, research questions, design, sample, and methods.

As you consider sampling strategies and methods for collecting data, you might visit Walden University’s Participant Pool to view the descriptions of research studies currently available for participation. You will likely notice a variety of sampling methods reflected in participant eligibility criteria and various data collection methods being used by student and faculty researchers in the Walden community.

This week, you will evaluate the strengths and limitations of sampling methods and data collection methods, and you will consider their ethical implications. You will also develop an annotated bibliography of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research articles.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

·         Defend sampling methods

·         Explain strengths and limitations of data collection methods

·         Apply strategies for addressing ethical issues in data collection

·         Develop an annotated bibliography

·         Apply APA Style to writing

PART A ASSIGN- USE REFERENCES ABOVE

Discussion: Sampling and Collecting Quantitative and Qualitative Data

It is often not possible or practical to study an entire population, so researchers draw samples from which they make inferences about a population of interest. In quantitative research, where generalization to a population is typically valued, a researcher’s ability to make such inferences is only as good as the sampling strategy she or he uses to obtain the sample. Once an appropriate sample has been obtained, data collection should involve valid and reliable measures to ensure confidence in the results, as well as the ability to generalize the research outcomes. Although generalization is typically not a goal in qualitative research, sampling is just as important in qualitative and mixed methods research, as is obtaining reliable and valid results. Indeed, for quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research, sampling strategies and accurate data collection methods are critical aspects of the research process.

Specific methods of data collection (e.g., surveys, interviews, observations) produce specific types of data that will answer particular research questions, but not others; so here too, as covered in previous weeks, the research questions inform how the data will be obtained.  Furthermore, the method used to collect the data may impact the reliability and the validity of that data.

For this Discussion, you will first consider sampling strategies. Then, you will turn your attention to data collection methods, including their strengths, limitations, and ethical implications. Last, you will consider measurement reliability and validity in the context of your discipline.

With these thoughts in mind, if your last name starts with A through L, use Position A. If your last name starts with M through Z, use Position B.

Position A: Probability sampling represents the best strategy for selecting research participants.

Position B: Nonprobability (or purposive) sampling represents the best strategy for selecting research participants.

Post a restatement of your assigned position on sampling strategies.

Defend your position with examples and support from the scholarly literature.

Next, select a data collection method and briefly explain its strengths and limitations.

Then, identify a potential ethical issue with this method and describe a strategy to address it.

Last, explain the relationship between measurement reliability and measurement validity using an example from your discipline.

Be sure to support your Main Issue Post and Response Post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA Style.

PART B

Assignment: Annotated Bibliography

Submit: Annotated Bibliography

This week, you will submit the annotated bibliography introduced in Week 3.

An annotated bibliography is a document containing selected sources accompanied by a respective annotation. Each annotation consists of a summary, analysis, and application for the purpose of conveying the relevance and value of the selected source. As such, annotations demonstrate a writer’s critical thinking about and authority on the topic represented in the sources.

In preparation for your own future research, an annotated bibliography provides a background for understanding a portion of the existing literature on a particular topic. It is also a useful precursor for gathering sources in preparation for writing a subsequent literature review.

·         Locate six articles on a research topic of your interest—two quantitative research articles, two qualitative research articles, and two mixed methods research articles—published in peer-reviewed journals.

·         Prepare an annotated bibliography that includes the following:

o    A one-paragraph introduction that provides context for why you selected the research articles you did.

o    A reference list entry in APA Style for each of the six articles that follows proper formatting. Follow each reference list entry with a three-paragraph annotation that includes:

§  A summary

§  An analysis

§  An application as illustrated in this example

o    A one-paragraph conclusion that presents a synthesis of the six articles.

·         Format your annotated bibliography in Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced. A separate References list page is not needed for this assignment.

Submit your Annotated Bibliography.

Write a 16 page essay on Three year strategic digital marketing plan.

g the fact that Gap 360 is a relatively new company in this market, the success achieved by the company in its first and second year of trading is noteworthy. Having enjoyed a successful stint over the past two years, the company should aim to achieve a higher ground that provides robust foundation to become an undisputed leader in the market. In order to be able to reach the pinnacle in this market, Gap 360 must aim to attain a higher customer satisfaction index. This is precisely because a widening base of satisfied customers will serve as a sustainable source of profit for the independent travel service provider. However, the objective of higher customer satisfaction level can only be achieved if the company is able to increase its base of potential passengers which in actuality is the second objective that is specific to the requirement of the company. The objectives are very closely associated to each as one can only be attained if the other is accomplished. The fact can be evidenced with the third objective of the company which is to widen its products and service offerings (in terms of increasing number of destinations and types of trips) within five years of its launch. By doing so the company endeavours to attract greater number of passengers which in turn will provide them with the opportunity to offer superior quality services and hence, increase their customer base to a further level.

Measureable: Gap 360 has to focus on increasing the amount of bookings done every year. In addition to that, they will also have to implement appropriate strategies in order to attain growth in the level of repeat sales per annum. As far as measurability of this objective is concerned, a target of 11,000 booking has been set which is to be achieved by 2016. On the other hand, a measurable target of 10% of the total bookings has been placed for repeat sales.

Attainable: Given the size of the market in UK, the target that has been set in the section above is attainable.
