Review detailed descriptions of how useful the Delphi Technique/Delphi method of estimating can be from assigned readings, PMI resources and research.

Review detailed descriptions of how useful the Delphi Technique/Delphi method of estimating can be from assigned readings, PMI resources and research. Often, Delphi estimates are done “anonymously” to reduce bias.

This method is based on group brainstorming. It is ok to hear one another’s estimates: the learning objective is to learn that this method provides a simple ‘averaging’ of estimates and is often very accurate!

Let’s use your Final Paper topic as an example of how Delphi estimating works:

1. Identify 4 risks relating to your final team paper topic (for instance, “Delivery of water in to Haiti days after an earthquake”).

Insurance market effect

There have been recent reg:ulatory and administrative changes that might affect the Affordable Care Act (ACA) market for non-group insurance. The change is

1. Allowing the sale of renewable, experience-rated short-term health insurance plans which need not cover the full complement of essential health benefits (FOCUS ONLY ON THIS CHANGE)

you should prepare to explain to the governor of New York state—using the concepts of the Rothschild-Stiglitz model (but not the jargony language)—how the assigned change would likely affect the insurance market in New York City and who would gain or lose from this change.
prepare and submit a 300- to 500-word memo summarizing the findings.

Explain how states use TV broadcasting and why in various phases; direct and indirect funding and related methods, impact on society

contemplation on the relationship between Arab TV broadcasting and politics. Below some points, pointers and semi-rubric that could help

By ‘residual – dominant – emerging’ in this context we mean what kind of practices, relationships, use, (mutual) exploitation, etc., that we have been witnessing in the domain of TV-politics.
Think of, and include, the phases of national TV, trans-national and pan-Arab TVs, and foreign TVs (in Arabic). Try to observe and talk about the changing and evolving relationship between media and politics throughout these phases – what continued to exist from previous practices (residual), what became dominant, and what did emerge by the end of or during each phase, and what was the dynamics between the residual, dominant and emerging.
Examples of processes/practices that one can follow through the phases: how states use TV broadcasting and why in various phases; direct and indirect funding and related methods, impact on society and identity, etc.
