1. How would you describe the shape and articulation of your chosen characters melodic lines? Are they long/short phrases? Legato/staccato? Simple/complex? Conjunct/disjunct? How would you describe the range?

2. What might the shape, articulation and style of these melodies communicate to the listener about the character as a person? Do they parallel any specific speech patterns or movements? What might they suggest about this characters nature and/or motivations? Do you notice a difference between the style and shape of the melodies in each of the two musical selections provided based on the characters emotional state at that point in the narrative?

3. What emotions do you perceive within each of the two musical selections for your chosen character? What elements of the music do you feel are responsible for communicating these emotions in this ?

4. Do you think the emotion and meaning are communicated more strongly in the music or the text? In the absence of an English translation, do you think the emotions of the character would still be perceptible to the listener?

Character-specific questions (Tamino):

A. Do Taminos melodies ever utilize melismatic textures, similar to those present in Paminas and the Queen of the Nights arias, or are they more akin to the stoic melodies of Sarastro? What could these similarities or differences suggest about his character?

B. Both Tamino and Papagenos roles feature arias about a true love that they have yet to meet. What are some ways in which the arias differ? What differences can you identify within the melodic lines in Taminos first aria and Papagenos first aria*, and what do these differences tell us about each character as a person?

*Papagenos first aria is included in the Tamino supporting document

Sampling Theory

According to Wu & Thompson (2020), sampling theory refers to the principles that guide the drawing of samples from a given population to use them in making inferences. Sampling theory illustrates that study samples should accurately represent the population from which they are drawn. According to the sampling theory, a population refers to the entire group about which a researcher wants to make conclusions while a sample refers to the specifically selected group from which data is collected. The various methods of sampling include probability where every member of a given population has a chance of being selected and non-probability which uses a non-random criterion where some individuals in a population do not have a chance to be selected in a study sample. Sampling theory is widely applicable such as in studies aiming at identifying the mean heights of individuals in a given area of .

In nursing research, generalizability is used to measure the usefulness of the outcome of research to the entire populace. According to Leung, (2017), generalizability in nursing qualitative research studies is assessed by adopting similar validity measures such as system sampling, constant comparison and triangulation, and correct audit and certification. Additionally, researchers also utilize analytical generalizability to measure the degree to which the results of a study can be generalized into another one in a comparable circumstance and theoretical considerations.

Focus of the Final Work

Strategic Warehouse Management, Inc. (SWM) is a U.S. based warehousing organization in the construction and management of warehouse operations. The CEOs market development team has determined that there is an opportunity to open a warehouse in Australia that could serve multiple businesses. The CEO plans to open a non-resident company (Land and Tax News, 2012). The CEO has also decided that the warehouse can be opened in any city in Australia. Some clients in Australia have also asked SWM to manage the flow of goods from Australia to U.S. locations. The CEO wants to get a preliminary plan developed as soon as possible before going further.

The CEO asked you to design a supply chain that includes warehouse operations in any city in Australia. In addition, the CEO has a number of items hed like to see you cover in the report. He has asked you to:

Develop requirements for the warehouse design and to provide an organization structure to manage the warehouse in Australia.

Present considerations for Workforce Management

Investigate key regulations and other key issues (e.g. labor climate) related to managing a warehouse in Australia as a foreign entity.

Develop export procedures and import procedures in the U.S.

Discuss supply chain risks and possible mitigations.

Analyze which operations SWM would outsource and which operations SWM would directly manage and explain why.

Outline the budget line items that would need to be considered (it is not necessary to develop a budget with dollar figures).

Determine the metrics you would use to measure success of the warehouse and the total supply chain.

Your report should be an eight to ten page APA style work (not including the title and reference pages) and submitted to the CEO (your instructor) by the last day of the class. You are required to include at least 6 scholarly sources
