Term Paper

   

1. DEFINITION

This study is an individual work.

In this assignment, you will research applications of experimental design. Through a review of relevant literature, you will find two articles that present practical applications of DOE in industry (i.e. manufacturing, healthcare, banking, entertainment, construction, energy). The studies may target the same or different industries. You will submit one report that addresses the following in your own words:

· Identification of the industry

· Brief problem summary

· Factors studied

· Responses observed

· Experiment design strategy used

· Findings

Each study must be described in a separate section of your report addressing all the items listed above. The articles must include a practical application example. In your search you should focus on more recent publications (published in the year 2012 and beyond are acceptable).

Note that studies with only simple statistical analysis, for example two sample comparisons, are not acceptable for this assignment. The studies you report on must include experimental design methods such ANOVA, factorial design, fractional factorial design, etc.

CULTURAL ACTIVITY REPORT

 

Option 2: Create and Curate Your Own Art Museum

This is an alternative option to visiting a museum or art gallery. For this option, select and curate 5–10 works of art to include in your own art museum. Use your textbook and online sources to help you find these works of art. A good resource for this assignment is the Google Arts and Culture website from the Google Cultural Institute. Here you can immerse yourself in cultural experiences across art, history and wonders of the world—from more than a thousand museums across 70 countries.

Write a 2–3 page report of 500–750 words that describes your experience.

  • Select a minimum of 5–10 works of art by 5–10 different artists from different time periods discussed in the text, from the 18th century to modern times.
  • Clearly identify the location of the museum and your initial reaction when exploring the artwork in the online museum or gallery.
  • Provide a description and summary of at least 5–10 works of art by 5–10 different artists.
  • Include a screenshot of each piece.
  • Explain your initial reaction to the artwork you selected and explain why you chose each piece.
  • Describe the role of museum founder and curator.
  • Use the class text as a reference (additional sources are fine but not necessary unless required by your content). Your report should include connections you make between things observed in your activity and things learned in the course and text.
