· How does the diversity policy address Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations?

· What other standards are used?

· What information is collected during the recruitment and application process to ensure compliance?

· How could the policy be improved?

· Did you read any information that surprised you? If so, what was it?

Submission Details:

· By the due date assigned, post your responses to this Discussion Area.

· Through the end of the module, respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts. Your response should rely on at least two sources from additional professional literature—articles from peer-reviewed journals and relevant textbooks. Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources (i.e., APA); and use accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

I need someone to prepare an annotated bibliography of the 20 research articles listed below. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. CRITERIA: Please note that the same rules for citation that apply to other documents (such as proper paraphrasing and the use of quotation marks where necessary) apply to Annotated Bibliographies as well. It is not acceptable to cut and paste from the abstract or the body of an article. Rather, it is expected to read the article completely and appropriately paraphrase the necessary material. For those few situations where paraphrasing is not acceptable, then material that has not been paraphrased needs to be placed in quotation marks. Your annotated bibliography should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic.
