  • Midterm Exam 1

    Using both Susan Seymours ethnography of Family and Gender Systems in Transition in urban India and Susan Wadleys ethnography One Straw from a Broom Cannot Sweep, of the joint family in rural North India, critically examine how family remains a central institution shaping individual lives even amid social change. How do education, urbanization, and economic transformation alterbut not eliminatefamily authority, gender hierarchy, expectations of duty, and educational opportunities for young girls? Compare the joint family ideal in rural contexts with the changing family arrangements in Old Town and New Capital Bhubaneswar, paying particular attention to how young womens lives illuminate both the resilience and the limits of family-centered social organization.

    Topics to consider: rural joint family and urban extended family, changes in gender roles/marriage, education and women, aspirations and reality

    Research Local Crime Statistics: Visit the website for your local police department, FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) system, or any reliable crime data source (e.g., Lexis-Nexis CommunityCrimeMap.com, CrimeMapping.com or city-data.com).

  • Adapting agile in federal contracting

    Overview:

    The federal government has increasingly embraced Agile methodologies, yet implementation within the constraints of federal contracting presents unique challenges. This discussion will help you analyze how to effectively implement Agile methodologies within the federal acquisition framework, while maintaining compliance with regulations.

    Scenario:

    You are a contracting officer for a federal agency that wants to procure a custom software development project for a new citizen-facing service portal. The project has high visibility within your agency, and leadership is interested in using Agile methods to ensure the system meets evolving user needs. Based on market research, you have determined that commercial vendors typically use Scrum methodology for similar projects, with two-week Sprints and regular demonstrations. You need to structure a contract that enables this Agile approach while ensuring proper government oversight and compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirements.

    Instructions:

    For this discussion, you will analyze how to implement Agile methodologies within federal acquisition frameworks, addressing specific challenges and proposing solutions. Your initial post should address the following three areas:

    Part 1: Implementation Challenges (200 words) Identify at least three specific challenges that might arise when implementing agile methodologies within the federal acquisition framework. For each challenge:

    • Explain why this issue occurs in the federal contracting context
    • Identify which Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) provisions relate to this challenge
    • Describe how this challenge might impact project outcomes if not addressed

    Helpful Resource: Review FAR Part 39.103 on modular contracting, which provides a foundation for Agile approaches. Also consider how traditional federal contract requirements for defined deliverables (FAR Part 11) might conflict with Agile’s evolving requirements approach.

    Part 2: Contract Structure Recommendations (200 words)Explain how you would structure the contract to accommodate Agile principles while maintaining compliance with federal regulations. Include:

    • Which specific contract sectionsStatement of Work, CDRL, or QASP would need special attention
    • Sample contract language examples that enable Agile flexibility while ensuring accountability
    • Performance metrics that would effectively measure progress in an Agile environment

    Helpful Resource: The provides guidance on structuring agile contracts within the FAR. Pay particular attention to Section 2 on Requirements and Planning.

    Part 3: Contract Type Analysis (200 words) Recommend the most appropriate contract type(s) for this agile procurement. Your analysis should:

    • Identify your recommended contract type with detailed justification
    • Explain specifically how this contract type supports agile principles
    • Address potential risks of your selected contract type and provide specific mitigation strategies
    • Consider at least one alternative contract type and explain why it is less suitable
    • Helpful Resource: Review FAR Part 16 on contract types and consider how each type aligns withAagile’s need for adaptation and frequent reassessment. Time-and-Materials, Fixed-Price-Per-Sprint, and various Cost-Plus arrangements each have different implications for Agile projects.

    Formatting Requirements:

    • Your post should be 450-600 words total: approxinmately 150 – 200 words per section
    • Include section headings to organize your response
    • Reference at least two specific FAR provisions that impact your recommendations
    • Cite any external sources using appropriate citation format

    Resources: To support your analysis, you may wish to review these resources:

    • Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 39.103 – Modular Contracting
    • TechFAR Handbook (18F/U.S. Digital Service guidance)
    • GAO Report GAO-20-590G: Agile Assessment Guide
    • Digital Services Playbook (Play #4: Build the service using agile and iterative practices)

  • Quiz on bugs
