Discussion Topic

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISCUSSIONS:   Your contributions should be thoughtful and developed.  Answer all parts of the question and use concepts from the course materials.  Use a professional style of communication, with attention to grammar, spelling, and typos; cite your sources.  

Unless your instructor specifies otherwise, choose ONE of the following questions, and give a substantive response to at least two other students.

1.  EXPLORE MUSIC AND DANCE

The readings and videos introduced themes and issues related to exploring music and dance as phenomena of culture.  There are a great many more to consider: children’s music and dance, music and dance for the elderly, music and dance among people with disabilities, or spirituals in African American history. Find a video related to one of these, embed it in your post, and examine one of these areas (or another related topic) in detail and make sure to use at least two concepts, terms etc. about music and dance you or your classmates posted in Discussion 3.1. Underline or bold the vocabulary, concept or technique you use as a interpretative tool in your post. 

2.  CREATE A RINGSHOUT

If you decide to create a Ringshout and can make a video, share a file containing the video and discuss the experience of learning about the Ringshout and the process of creating it.

3.  PARTICIPATE IN A DANCE

Participate in a style of dance that is new to you. Your local community may offer free or low cost opportunities such as contra dancing or line dancing.  If live musicians are present, what instruments are used? Do some research on this style of dance, discussing its cultural context, history and origins as well as your impressions based on your active participation as a dancer. Be sure to embed a video example of this kind of dance in your post. 

4.  EXPLORE SYMPHONY, CHORUS, OR OPERA

Using an Internet search engine, locate the nearest symphony orchestra, chorus (chorale) or opera company to your home or office, or one that you would like to visit in the future.

Share the URL (website location) and describe some of the works being performed this season. Are the works on the programs all by 18th and 19th century European male composers (Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, etc.) or did you find some diversity among the composers?

Check for special programs for families with children or special ticket prices for students. Does the organization have a public outreach program such as the award-winning “Voices Within,” an artist residency program designed by the Los Angeles Master Chorale that teaches fifth grade students how to tap their creative voices to compose and perform their own original songs? http:// 

If you were to attend one of the performances you have discovered, what two tools from Discussion 3.1 that you or your classmates posted might you find useful to have in mind when viewing the performance and why? Underline or bold the vocabulary, concept or technique you use as a interpretative tool in your post.

A.       Be sure to list all composite and atomic structures involved

B.       For the data structures listed in question 1, define the elements including constraints on the values (if any).

3. Citi Bank has a new credit card and they have the following policies as to which customers get which cards: If their income is greater than $150,000, the card they receive depends on their credit score.  If their credit score is above 750, they get the black card. If their credit score is less than 750, they get a gold card. If their income is between $150,000 and $50,000, the card they receive, if they receive a card, depends on their credit score. If their credit score is above 750, they get the gold card.  If their credit score is less than 750, they get a platinum card. If their income is below $50,000, the card the customer receives, if they receive a card, is based on their credit score.  If their credit score is below 750, they are denied a card.

Need an argumentative essay on Marketing strategy implementation. Needs to be 6 pages. Please no plagiarism.

Since the products are intended to be high end, they will not be priced lowly in a manner to comprise this fact. On the contrary, under pricing will raise doubts among the consumers as to the quality of the products (Kotler & Keller, 2006). The promotion strategy will justify the cost. It will make the customers appreciate that they are getting what they are spending their money on. The rationale of this strategy is based on the intended themes of the advertisements. The themes of the commercials will not concentrate on areas like how long lasting or portable the products are. Instead, they will be designed to create a picture of ownership experience and appeal to the status of using such products. This will have the effect of reducing comparison with the competition’s products (Laermer & Simmons, 2007).

A generic product-market comprises an extensive collection of products which fulfill a general, nonetheless similar, need (Kotler & Keller, 2006). The product-market boundaries will first be distinguished by identifying particular needs that a range of products will satisfy. Although customers may have the same needs, they will not always satisfy them in the same way. Therefore, product-markets are often diverse and contain different user groups with different categories of related products (Kotler & Keller, 2006). The product-market will match the customers to the benefits of the products. It will be formed by a set of products that may be substitutes in usage situations similar to the models of benefits sought by different groups of customers. The boundaries will then be distinguished by categories of products that satisfy generic needs and the targeted customers (Kotler & Keller, 2006). The products are closely related because the customers regard them as substitutes and the factors and elements used in production are similar. For example, two cosmetic gels in the same product line may differ in that one irritates the skin, and the other
