The motivation for those who sought changes in some of the major universities in America during the period of 1776 to 1862 primarily pertained to modernization. Quite simply, following the conclusion of the evolutionary War and the formal founding of America (the former of which was partly inspired by the French evolution and which presaged the ussian evolution), the pace of the world accelerated and became modernized. Those who wanted to change the individual and collective collegiate educational institutions were attempting to effectively update them. In some instances, doing so required facilitating land for their expansion (USDA, 2015). In others, it was to keep pace with the demands of business and the rapid advances that characterized developments in Europe (O'Hara, 1828).
There was a degree of variation in the characteristics in those that led the efforts for the changes that were desired in…

DEVELOPING THE CONFEENCE MASTE PLAN
This entails the joint efforts of the conference manager, the chairperson of the conference, the planning board of the conference, the society officers and the executive board of the society (Potvin, 2012).
Establishing a Planning Timetable
To manage work and make sure that planning meetings take place, publications handed out, speakers chosen, and conference plans need follow the appropriate order (Povtin, 2012)
Assessing Meeting Objectives and Developing a Method of Approach
Usually, long-range planning would have been conducted by society officers, the executive board of the society, as well as the log-range planning board (Potvin, 2012).
Selecting the Conference Theme
The central point for the technical program is the conference theme and it serves to incorporate the different subject sections of the conference into a coherent whole (Potvin, 2012).

Professional Development Seminar
Curriculum development as an industry consists of curriculum concept, development, application (that is, direction), and assessment. Conventional, conceptual-empiricist, and reconceptualise are theoretical structures that regulate particular strategies to curriculum problems. Each of these structures can be distinguished by the dominant and subordinate presumptions that regulate the understanding and values which underscore their particular modes of questions. In this paper, we will construct content for professional development seminar where we will concentrate on the notion of traditional curriculum development and comprehend the view of the Traditionalist Educational philosophy, which can be categorized as Pernalism and Essentialism. Its basic viewpoint has its base in the notion of Idealism and ealism and its psychological roots are in Behaviorism (Bilbao et al., 2008).
Philosophical basis
Traditionalists are mentally disciplinarians, upholding the belief that if you work out your mind and its functions like every other muscle it will get more powerful. They urge extensive…

Rather than become overwhelmed by the subjective aspects of human suffering, scholastically trained professionals can apply research to the real world. My work at the SHS has therefore prepared me to meet the challenges of humanitarian service both by increasing my awareness of academic research available in different areas and by increasing my practical ability to serve others.
The value of an education at the SHS extends beyond the personal gains I or any other student may acquire as a result of the diploma such as a promotion, increased salary, or higher status job. In fact, most students are aware that social service positions are not necessarily keys to fame or fortune. We would not have invested so much of our time and energy into the program if we did not feel strongly about social issues. The true value of an SHS education is in its ability to make me…
Management Seminar
Demonstrate a basic understanding of the terminology, history and theories of business and management principles.
Although the concept of management is already a few centuries old, the basis for the development of a science of management was laid during the Industrial Revolution. Until the 1960's diverse viewpoints on management were recognized leading to the development of a more integrated approach to management. The process approach emphasized the basic functions of management followed by the systems approach which highlighted the interdependency of the internal and external environments. The importance of situational variables than can have an appreciable influence on planning, organizing, activating and control by management was underlined by the contingency approach. Over a long period of time agreement could not be reached as to the 'best approach' to the basic problematics of management and different theories were propagated. However, the demarcation of the management task as a particular process within…
Networking workshop highlighted a number of aspects of the job hunt, and in particular why networking is such a valuable tool to help you find work. One of the most important elements was the elevator pitch. The principle behind this is that when you meet somebody, you need to be able to express quickly who you are, what you are looking for and what you bring to the table for a potential employer. If you can express this succinctly, it will help because you often do not have much time to make an impression on somebody or to communicate these things. One exercise concept was to practice doing this in a tweet, because it helps you become more economical in how you use words, to focus on expressing only the key ideas.
The workshop then took us through the getting started phase. This means writing down your experiences and skills, so…
developmental level of the children determine what types of charts are best suited for examining the data they have collected.
According to Houghton Milton children in second grade are already familiar with data gathering and in the first grade learn how to gather data and organize that data into what are known as 'tally charts'. After children have learned how to data gather and organize data from such surveys into these types of charts they go on to learn how to conduct data analysis and data comparison at levels that are more advanced. Further children are then ready to use more advanced comparison of data. The use of tally charts can be followed by the use of pictographs which involves "looking at the key to see how many of a given item each picture stands for." (Houghton Miflin,2014, p. 1) Once having learned how to work with pictographs the students…

This is possibly due to the fact that sexual minorities may have additional challenges finding insurance because of discrimination in the workforce or the additional costs of being in a non-heterosexual couple (gay men and lesbians do not get many of the tax breaks and other legal support that heterosexual couples are entitled to by marriage, although this is changing, thanks to increased recognition of domestic partnerships and greater support for gay marriage throughout the country).
Thus, gays and lesbians have additional health concerns that are compounded by poverty. Furthermore, non-heterosexual minorities have also been found to have elevated risk factors which compound the risks of being gay and lesbian. According to Mojola and Everett (2012), while "gay men in all racial and ethnic groups were significantly more likely than heterosexual white men to report having received an STD diagnosis" (this includes not simply HIV / AIDS but all STDs,…

It notes that although genetic markers "are known for individuals of European ancestry, but whether the same or different variants account for the genetic risk of Alzheimer disease in African-American individuals" was unknown before the study (eitz et al. 2013: 1483). In contrast, the Kolata piece seemed to suggest that the association was very much a 'known' quantity, even though it had not yet been directly proven. The conclusion of the article restates what is noted in the Times piece, namely that there are no significant genetic variations between the patterns of susceptibility in the two groups.
In many ways, quite surprisingly, in this individual instance the New York Times article was more illuminating about the genetic cause of Alzheimer's than the scholarly article, carefully explaining why certain genetic (as opposed to lifestyle) factors link heart disease and Alzheimer's and also how specific genetic patterns result in a…

Coaching provides clients with lifelong learning tools. For a tool to last a lifetime, it must be transformative in nature and solidified in terms of a global mindset. Mindsets help clients focus on their goals and provide them with the blueprint for reaching those goals. In particular, solution-focused coaching and the growth mindset are foundational. Both the solution-focused approach and the growth-mindset are future-oriented, preventing the client from remaining stuck in the past. Being stuck in the past inhibits growth because the client repeats the same mistakes over and over. Rather than letting the past determine the future, the client should simply move forward. The solution focused approach means refusing to dwell on the causes of the problem or on what's wrong, and instead focusing on what is right, or on visualizing a desired outcome. Likewise, the growth mindset helps the client overcome limitations by refusing to believe that talents…
Leading Change" was the topic of discussion for the seminar delivered Dr. Saad Al-Barrak, the esteemed former CEO of Zain Telecom, and who currently serves as CEO of ILA Group. The university's president and the head of the MBA program introduced Al-Barrak to a barrage of applause from the fresh-faced and eager-eyed students in the audience. In fact, one of the main objectives of the seminar was to introduce the graduates to how to apply concepts like organizational change and leadership into real world scenarios. The audience was comprised of mainly university graduates, with a few faculty and staff members present as well. The seminar was held in a small auditorium, and about fifty people were in attendance. Many of us had opened our laptops so we could take notes. Focusing on the dual themes of leadership and change, the seminar remained highly relevant to the student body.

Seminar Activities
Colleges in the colonial period were significantly different from colleges in the modern learning environment. Most of these schools were focused on preparation of ministers and were largely extent seminaries given that they were founded by several church groups. During the early 1700s, colonial colleges were primarily meant to be schools of higher culture for laymen ministers. The colonial colleges were founded through cooperation between the state or government and the church. Actually, 70% of colonial colleges prepared students for ministry before embracing new things into the curriculum such as Greek and Latin lessons.

Efficiency, and Balance Budgeting
Budget process allows public administrators to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their projects. It provides them with result-orientated practices when managing the projects. This allows them to remain focused on the goals of the project and develop alternative strategies for addressing factors that might impede the success of the project. It also provides them with the desired flexibility to ensure the success of the project. This includes flexibility in the devolution of the fiscal and functional responsibilities in ensuring effective coordination in the use of the allocated resources.
The budgeting process is also important because it provides administrators with methods used in strengthening the competitive pressures influencing the success of the project. It entails the adoption of processes like privatization and accommodating competitive processes affecting the performance of the project. Besides, the budget process can support the realization of the organization's strategic planning efforts. Strategic planning…

usiness Communications
Over the last several years, teamwork and communication have been become an essential element for a business to be successful in the long-term. Part of the reason for this, is because globalization has created a shift in how organizations are able to effectively adapt to new competitors and changes inside the marketplace. This has caused a wide variety of firms to focus on how they can be able to increase their overall bottom line and improve productivity dramatically. At the heart of this basic strategy, has been to encourage different staff members to work together. This is because each individual can bring with them certain skill sets that can contribute to the project. Once this takes place, they can help to make the company more competitive by addressing the specific needs of customers. This will improve the products and services that are being delivered, which will allow an organization…

Teaching
Childhood education has taken an eclectic approach when it comes to music whereby they have included a wide variety of musical experiences teaching. A major musical experience involves movement; whereby there are specific movement activities for different age groups of children. For a two-year-old good movement activities include use of different body movements and moving in a more coordinated way to music that is played. For four-year-olds they have mastered new movements and rapidly and easily switch from a particular type to another when a word is changed. When it comes to seven-year-olds they are capable of improvising movements and matching them to beats in a song. They are given more complex instructions of movements and easily follow them. All these movement activities are all developmentally correct for the specific ages the children are in. Good movements in a two-year-old help in the development of perceptual skills. This is…

functional literacy activities? What are some examples?
Functional literacy activities refer to activities that focus on reading or writing in direct connection to actual tasks that can be easily applied or used in the real world. For example, functional literary activities might involve reading street signs, reading maps or drafting a grocery list.
What are ways to share literature with young children? What are important factors to consider when selecting literature to share and stocking classroom libraries? What are some effective story-reading strategies (read-alouds and shared reading)?
One way to share literature with young children would be to present it in the most dynamic and hands on approach possible. For example, using puppets or dolls or figurines when presenting a new book to students can be a way to help engage students' minds and imagination. Or dynamic follow-up activities which relate to the text can also be used with success: for example,…

Job Application
Why are you applying for a role in your chosen area? (Demonstrate your suitability for the position(s) sought.)
In September of 2002, I graduated with honors with a degree in Civil Electronic Engineering from the Free University of Brussels (V.U.B). Although I enjoyed studying this discipline and pursuing my degree, I have come to realize that my naturally extroverted personality is far more suited and more fulfilled in the fast-paced world of business and finance. This is why I have decided to apply for an entry-level position for the Financial Management Program (FMP) at General Electric.
I do not only seek an education for myself in my new, chosen field. I also believe that my background has given me, as a person, a good deal that I can offer to GE as a company. A civil electronic engineer, such as myself, is often confronted with highly complex mathematical and IT problems.…
seminar was revolving more around why childhood education is important and the various credentials that support increased effort in this arena. Even though there were many related topics covered in this seminar, the major objective and goal is the relevance of early childhood education. It has been stated that early childhood development is a time when the child not only develops physically but socially, emotionally and cognitively as well. The infants enter into this world with a certain group of abilities and talents. They have many potentials that need to be worked on and brought out by the parents.
When looking into this subject through the perspective of a psychologist, many different theories can be used For instance; Sigmund Freud talked about the three essays sexuality and the different stages that a child must pass through in the right way. If a child does not successfully finish a stage, he…

Training
One topic that might be a good one for egmans is how the Affordable Care Act will affect the employees of the company. This is an issue that is going to affect the company, and we need to be able to communicate to the employees what will happen with them, and what their obligations are under the new law. There are a number of different ways to train employees on this subject, but the best is the in-house classroom. There is a risk with online training that some employees might not be very computer-savvy and would therefore not be able to complete the training. Mentoring and other forms of one-on-one training would be too cumbersome for a task such as this, and this is not a special skill that needs to be learned. A classroom setting is appropriate given the nature of the material to the learned, the way that…

S. were "proficient in reading and math," Pytel explains. These statistics "loudly states that students entering high school" are simply not prepared, Pytel goes on. Moreover, U.S. students do not fare well on the international educational stage. At a time when globalization has brought much closer linkage between cultures, economies, and countries, American school children are lagging behind. The justification for focusing on strategies to keep children interested in school -- and to help them succeed in school -- is to be found in the fact that U.S. students' average scores are very poor in comparison to other students internationally.
To wit, according to the 2003 data from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) (in cooperation with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, OECD), 15-year-old American students rank 24th out of 38 countries in science.

Employees should be trained and educated about this issue. In case sexual harassment cases emerge, the H department must provide professional help and support for the victims. The complaints channel should be very well organized, and it should use both formal and informal methods for solving harassment cases (aymond, 2003).
A hostile environment, or a harassing one, is consisted of "unwelcome verbal or physical conduct based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, or retaliation" (FCC, 2007). The law is very clear regarding this aspect, but individuals' perception varies in multiple ways. Individuals' perception regarding this subject should be the starting point for any anti-harassment strategy that should try to change these perceptions in order to prevent or at least diminish harassment cases.

Describe the Equity Theory.
Equity theory is a theory regarding the fairness and justice of material allocation between individuals. It is where workers believe they are being rewarded accordingly or not. If he or she is over or under awarded, a notion of anguish is created. In the end, further efforts must be committed to restore appropriate worth. The theory is basically about whether or not both parties are receiving proper and just shares of deserved resources. The value of equity is determined by measuring the amount of aid and contribution between each party. However, the former does not mean fiscal or emotional, and the latter excludes investment in time and effort. The balance in the equity theory and between the two parties means as long as they both exert similar efforts, a balanced ratio has been achieved. The theory suggests and predicts that a worker or individual's incentive…

Certain people are difficult to work with because they are unhappy in their lives or because they lack the necessary social skills and perceptions required to work with others. In many cases, difficult individuals can undermine morale and productivity of the working group if other members of the group react defensively or forget that it is not necessary to respond to every issue that is not directly related to the team's working objectives and goals.
Controlling Gut Reactions
I realize that I have limited patience for dealing with difficult individuals and that I tend to respond reflexively from my gut instincts in many situations. In the vocational environment, that can be counterproductive to the needs of the working group and the organization. By studying communications, I hope to learn to control my gut reactions to people and circumstances and to learn conflict resolution techniques that will enable me to work collaboratively…
In this way, customers will be infused with the same enthusiasm, which will encourage sales.
Workforce Planning System
The goals for the team need to be concomitant with the company's new purpose as a seller of both cleaning products and services. Hence the sales team need to be selected and trained in such a way to optimize the sales force for both purposes. Specifically, the company is focused upon hiring a diverse and talented sales team. The team should be both customer- and sales-driven.
The hard skills of such persons therefore need to be good communication skills, the ability to obtain new customers, and a good knowledge of the cleaning products and services being sold. Soft skills will include good interpersonal relationships, an ability to remain calm in conflict situations, and enthusiasm for performing the work.
As such, the types of positions needed on the team will be those that require specific knowledge…

The work of Kaplan and Palmer (2007) entitled: "Strategic Imagination: External Thought Leaders Inspire Breakthrough Innovation" published by Innovation Point relates the fact concerning innovation efforts that they "often deliver disappointingly short-term ideas and fail to identify longer-term growth platforms. An organization's inwardly-focused and historically-biased view of the world limits its capacity for 'strategic imagination'. Bringing in fresh, future-oriented perspectives from outside the organization is an essential catalyst for innovative 'stretch thinking'." (Kaplan and Palmer, 2007) Bringing in what are termed to be 'external thought leaders' derived from various domains will assist the innovation process and assist the team in the development of 'Industry Foresight' and in identification of: "...non-obvious opportunities." (Kaplan and Palmer, 2007) External thought leaders are described as "...inspirational provocateurs and visionaries..." And are said to be the "...essential catalyst for teams that seek breakthrough innovation." (Kaplan and Palmer, 2007) the work of Wagner…

For 2006 and 2007, I have been accepted into the Explorer Program at Mt. Carmel East Hospital. During this time, I also participated on my high school soccer team. I feel I have experience and enthusiasm to offer the medical program and a degree from your institution would be my stepping-stone into the career I have always seen for myself.
I hope to complete my education as soon as possible and obtain a position in a pediatric facility where I can help other children that suffered as I did when I was young. The nursing staff helped me through that difficult time, and I hope to do the same for other children. I also hope to become involved in some type of pediatric cancer research. I feel I can best accomplish these goals with a degree from your institution, as its reputation for medical education is well-known and respected throughout…
Ileana Final Portfolio
Bioethics Final
This portfolio documents performance of key class and personal objectives for HU280-01: Bioethics 1103C, specifically analytical skill building, knowledge acquisition and practical application. The samples demonstrate achievement by presenting excerpts from submitted assignments, Discussion and Seminar interactions, interactions with the instructor and reflections on progress mastering central concepts, ideas and perspectives in bioethics. This work demonstrates a progression from identification, synthesis and recapitulation of selected relevant ethical systems, placing those systems in the contexts through which they arose, and applying those precepts to emerging controversies in modern life. The underlying benchmark this presentation attempts to demonstrate is that if learning is indicated by a change in behavior, then my implementation of new methods considering bioethical dilemmas and also improved critical reasoning and research methods, indicates learning over this process of course inquiry.
This process has provided a structural framework that translates directly to my work in the field…

Carl Robins, who was recently appointed as campus recruiter for ABC, Inc. Initially, it looked like it was going well, with Carl successfully recruiting 15 new hires relatively early in his new job. Having been with the company for only six months, this was his first recruitment assignment, so it he would logically be eager to make a good impression. Initially, things seemed to be going well, and he also appeared to work well with Monica Carrolls, who was the Operations Supervisor. On May 15, Carl assured Monica that everything regarding the training schedule, orientation, manuals, policy booklets, physicals, drug tests, and other necessities would be coordinated and scheduled by June 15, when the hire orientation was to take place.
After Memorial Day at the end of May, however, things started to look less rosy. At his office, Carl realized that a number of things were amiss. Some new trainees…
As a part of my work, I have conducted on-going analysis and monitoring of the risks involved in a variety of investment funds. I remained at the cutting edge of market research, for I must be aware of the subtlest differences amongst different funds. This invaluable work experience has not only steeled my stomach to risk, but has shown me the importance of mathematics and programming in the financial field. Quantitative data, properly studied, remains the most invaluable tool in risk management today.
I have also already begun my initial creative work in the field. Recently, I developed my first quantitative model at work, an original program using Excel to generate risk ratings for different funds, based on statis data. Through my employment as well I have broadened my knowledge base about derivates in the capital markets products, through direct involvement in transactions as well as self-study conducted at in-house…
As a result: "In 1940, just 16% of Americans invested in stocks. Now over 50% do -- thanks to the explosion of 401(k) plans, the wide availability of mutual funds, lower trading costs, and accessible research." would call Charles Merrill a leader rather than a manager, although it is likely that he was a strong manager of his organization as well. But he was a leader because he led his industry in a whole new direction, and changed that industry permanently in the process. According to Leadership vs. management (April 14, 2004), Charles Merrill was not just a leader of an organization; he was a leader of change within his entire industry:
www.1000ventures.comLeadership is about getting people to abandon their old habits and achieve new things, and therefore largely about change - about inspiring, helping, and sometimes enforcing change in people. "While there can be effective management absent ideas, there…

loved to discover how gadgets in the world worked. My parents quickly realized how intuitively I took to the various challenges of my childhood, and gently guided me down the path of engineering. In high school I studied chemistry, and I was fascinated by the possibilities of chemical engineering. From fuel cell technology to metallurgy to oil refinement, I find that a significant portion of the future of humanity lies in this field. I have been interested in chemical engineering since I read about the Manhattan Project in the United States in the 1940s, which is a scientific project that changed the world dramatically. I entered college and went on to study chemical engineering, growing both my interest in the field as well as my knowledge and technical ability.
I studied both theory and practice, and received a well-rounded introduction to the field of engineering. I learn best when I…
E.H. Carr define a "fact" in What is History? How does it compare with the definitions of Bloch and Becker? Which one do you think is most useful as you begin preparing for your senior research seminar?
According to Carr in the book What is History? He first provides the definition of a fact by citing the oxford English Dictionary, which refers to a fact as "a datum of experience as distinct from conclusions" (Carr, 2008, p.6). Carr elaborates by explaining that this is what is usually viewed as a commonsense perspective of history: "History contains acorpus of ascertained facts. The facts are available to the historian in documents, inscriptions, and so on, like fish on the fishmonger's slab. The historian collects them, cooks them, takes them home, and cooks and serves them in whatever style appeals to him" (Carr, 2008, p.6). This is extremely revelatory regarding exactly what Carr…

Classic Airlines is currently the world's fifth largest airline which is operating a remarkable 2,300 flights daily to over 240 cities. In the previous period, net profits were roughly $10 million on $8.7 billion in revenues. However, Classic is experiencing negative publicity, declining stock prices, as well as the rising costs of fuel and labor over the past year. Furthermore the destructive reports coupled with low employee morale resulted in Classic's Board of Directors requiring a 15% cost reduction over the next 18 months. Management must quickly act to implement a nine-step problem solving method to overcome the obstacles and provide solutions to meet the cost cutting measures.
The nine-step problem solving method is defined as:…
New Nurses and Managers: Organizational Analysis
As the nursing profession evolves and rises to meet modern demands, we are faced with growing complexities in our profession and in our workplaces. From the orientation and socialization of new nurses and managers, to the selection processes for preceptors and mentors, to continuing education, to legal and ethical issues, the modern nurse is faced with complicated situations and elaborate organizations that require his/her continuing dedication.
Organizational Analysis
Professionalism
Examining the concepts included in "professionalism": a profession is a vocation, usually involving science or a unique education; the heart of professionalism per se is twofold: a professional has a distinct type of knowledge and a self-imposed responsibility to serve the community (Donelyn, 2004, Slide 16). Applying those concepts to the Nursing Profession, professionalism is the continual pursuit of knowledge, a self-imposed sense of responsibility for human concerns, development through our unique education, accountability to our peers, professional autonomy…

Abnormal Uterine Bleeding and Issues
Reproductive Tract Diseases for human females are typically focused in the upper reproductive tract or the lower reproductive tract. The upper tract includes the fallopian tubes, ovary and uterus, while the lower reproductive tract focuses on the vagina, cervix and vulva. There are three major types of infections: endogenous, iatrogenic and sexually transmitted diseases. Endogenous diseases arise from internal cellular structures and may be bacterial, viral or genetic, usually the most common and arise from an overgrowth of organisms that are already present in the vagina; iatrogenic diseases are the result of medical or surgical treatment, and sexually transmitted diseases occur between humans as a result of sexual behavior. In addition to infections, there are congenital abnormalities, cancers and functional problems. Each infection has its own specific cause and symptoms; caused by bacteria, virus, fungi or other organisms. Indeed, some are easily treatable and cured, others…

Leadership Training
The Leader is interested in aligning the beliefs and values of people with the overall goals and vision of the organization. In the Leadership role one can bring about change by providing direction, by setting an example, by motivating through inspiration, and by building teams based on respect and trust. A leader is focused on results rather than methods, systems and procedures. Leaders ask themselves "For what purpose?" And "What are the consequences for the system as a whole?" (Chait, 1997)
Different organizations offer various training programs for developing leadership skills in relation to planning, organizing, staffing, leading and controlling. The following paper analyzes the subject matter of these leadership trainings from various training writings and programs, in the light of the aforementioned human resource and management functions within an organization.

The development of tourism has influenced people and society, and has created thousands of organizations, at many levels: national and international, governmental or non- governmental. Tourism has thus led to the creation of million of jobs worldwide, in what is today is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. Tourism has led people to confront different attitudes and to admire eclectic cultures. In addition, to be able to understand these cultures, society at large has had to adapt to the pluralism of cultures by learning languages other than their own, different types of gastronomy and music, and also by adopting a greater tolerance of different religions.
Accordingly to Kaluf (2001), the development of tourism has been worldwide, and has been sustaining a growth of 20% over last five years: 5% in mass tourism and an incredible 15% in
Milgram's Seminar esearch
After the Nazi atrocities, during the Second World War, towards the Jews, many people wondered how people could have been so sadist and committed such behaviors. The Nazi's death camps were where Jews were tortured and killed by skilled administrative personnel, and these administrators were decent German citizens. Many people still wonder the reasons that could have motivated them to participate in such obnoxious behaviors. Milgram (1974) carried out of the most fascinated experiments to investigate the motive that makes people obey the authority.
Objective of this study is to discuses Milgram's research that focuses on obedience to authority.
Milgram's Experimental Methodology

Subject: The need for information security
Recently my proposal for a new set of control procedures was criticized as being "unnecessary red tape." I fully understand and share the concern. Reducing red tape minimizes costs and also reduces the chance for miscommunication and errors. Red tape can be detrimental to productivity.
However, I can assure you that the recommendations in question are not red tape but are based on a sound understanding of the ramifications of insecure data. Insecure data could cost Southwest its relationships with clients and suppliers. Therefore, I urge you to consider the following information security issues before reconsidering my proposals.
Issue 1: Southwest's clients and suppliers are our most valuable assets. We have cultivated relationships with many of our clients and suppliers over the course of the company's existence.

Another useful marketing activity for the Windows Vista can be a newsletter to interested users who will sign to receive it on the company's main website.

For them, because of this difficulty to manage change, information is important and a newsletter can not only provide this on a day-to-day or weekly basis, but also be a way of keeping in touch with the consumers.
The newsletter can contain everything from information on the product to updates and how to download and install them and to tips for getting the best from the operating system.

Amy attended the county's administrator forum, it became clear that the rumor mill about the "Good Ole' Boys" network was not exaggerated. Sitting across the table from fifteen district superintendents, not one in the bunch was a woman. There was only one other woman in assembled group, who like Amy held a lower position on her district's administrative team. Just as Amy had done her entire career, she made the decision not to let the statistics change her course and she was more determined than ever to proceed and succeed.
During the next few months Amy began researching her situation, and after reading several articles about women in upper-management, she became keenly aware that a doctoral degree will help level the playing field for women like her who want to reach the higher levels of administration in the K-12 education arena.

Genesis 12:10-20 and the Modern World:
Genesis 12:10-20 is a text about Abram and Sarai in Egypt that is considered as one of the great epos narrated in the ook of Genesis. efore the narration of this story, Abram is portrayed as an individual with several positive attributes including righteousness and humility. However, the story highlights several troubling concerns and questions regarding Abram's character, beliefs, and behaviors in relation to God and Sarai. These troubling questions and concerns have become the subject of interest and study throughout the ages. Actually, the concerns have been examined in various commentaries, adaptations and interpretations, and plot extensions. The story has mainly been examined from two schools of thought starting with a description of Sarai's beauty, attractiveness, and sexuality from the male perspective
. The second school of thought is typical expressions of male sexual discourse in light of Abram's disturbing behavior. Therefore, Genesis 12:10-20 is…

Negotiation Skills
A High Impact Negotiations Model: An Answer to the Limitations of the Fisher, Ury Model of Principled Negotiations
This study aims to discover the ways in which blocked negotiations can be overcome by testing the Fisher, Ury model of principled negotiation against one of the researcher's own devising, crafted after studying thousands of negotiation trainees from over 100 multinational corporations on 5 continents. It attempts to discern universal applications of tools, skills, and verbal and non-verbal communication techniques that may assist the negotiator in closing deals with what have been "traditionally" perceived as "difficult people." This study concludes that there are no such "difficult people," but rather only unprepared negotiators. The study takes a phenomenological approach to negotiations, with the researcher immersing himself in the world of negotiation training from 2012-14, for several major multinational corporations, intuiting the failings of the negotiators with whom he comes in contact, drafting and…

Once the teacher understands how their performance and their teaching ability relate to the outcomes of the school as a whole, they will be able to understand the need for peer observation and coaching. They desire better outcomes for the school, but they are not accustomed to the openness of the peer coaching model, as we will see.
Barriers to Success
Through the course of this literature review, several key barriers to the success of peer coaching programs were discovered, Many of the problems related to logistical problems that could be easily solved through time management or creative scheduling. However, some of barriers to success related to the attitudes of the teachers themselves. This barriers will prove much more difficult to resolve.
One of the key barriers to professional development programs is finding time to…

The educational system up to this point, very likely to continue in the future, has swung back and forth between these two philosophies (individualist and essentialist) in a pendulum effect, as educators seek to engender interest for knowledge in the student. Interestingly the application of the core principles in the Paideia Proposal can be applied to both swings of the pendulum as it demands that the core subjects be taught and demonstrated in a manner that meet individuals greatest possible abilities through presentation hands on and demonstration of learning, that is essential to the proposal. Each student is demonstrating his or her learning through the creation of presentations and/or projects that require analysis outside the classroom. For this to be effective many essential elements must come into play. Educators, in a broader sense, must view and critique the works of students, parents must be actively involved in critiques…

Resistance meant affirming one's own cultural heritage, in this case an African-American or black heritage (Lincoln and Mamiya 15).
By the 1990s, the problems encountered and caused by young black students in public schools had become a national priority and among the initiatives proposed by black leader at the time was the establishment of special schools exclusively for young black males. The rationale for this educational initiative was that this would provide the possibility of concentrating exclusively on the learning potential, learning styles, and the learning and behavioral difficulties of these students in a more effective manner than can be done in the traditional coeducational interracial settings that were typically dominated by white and feminine cultures (Billingsley 107). According to this author, "It was an idea, simple and straightforward, that grew out of the best motivations to improve the performance of these boys. It seemed to have a great deal…

At the outset of this exercise, we must start by defining planning and this has been defined as a proactive decision making within an organization. The importance of planning and marketing can start an ongoing process that helps an organization to design the services to meet the needs of the customer. This helps in removal of the traditional focus on internal operations and to the expectations of the customer and convenience. There have also been suggestions from experts like Weygand in 1995 that marketing audit should be an ongoing process in every organization to find out the trends and changes that are taking place in the market. (Planning and Marketing) Nowadays the promotion budgets for most organizations are very tight…

esearcher DevelopmentIntroductionWelcome to my presentation on my personal development plan as a researcher.My aim is to develop my skills as a researcher and use reflective models and frameworks to identify my development needs. I will then outline a detailed personal development plan with a considered rationale.Some might wonder why a personal development plan is important. I will say that writing a personal development plan as a researcher is an important exercise because it helps you to clarify the steps necessary to achieve your research goals, keeps you motivated through small, achievable milestones, and sets expectations for yourself in terms of output and quality. Additionally, such a plan serves as a benchmark against which progress can be measured. Developing this document should not be seen as a one-off exercise; it should be revisited periodically to measure progress and adjust targets accordingly. Furthermore, self-reflection throughout the research process can help identify areas…

29). Other webinar authorities emphasize the need to customize the material to the intended audience rather than attempting a "one-size-fits-all" approach. As iddle points out, "Perhaps the most important thing we discovered about creating and delivering webinars is that they must be thoughtfully tailored. Webinars, like any form of education, simply cannot be effective when dished out as fixed scripts delivered to a faceless audience" (2010, p. 29).
Although companies can develop the in-house expertise and technological support needed to deliver webinars, there are a number of vendors who provide webinar services, including Microsoft (Live Meeting), Webex and Genesys, as well as many others (udolph, 2006). According to udolph, "They all offer application sharing, white boarding (demonstrations), chat and real-time question-and-answer capabilities and have the ability to tailor delivery by group size" (2006, p. 57). The specific type of webinar used will likely depend on the material being presented and…

Though the second work in this review is longer by almost 100 pages it is also much simpler in its construct and clearer in intention as a manner to demonstrate the needs of the instructor to change the manner in which he or she constructs the classroom to facilitate learner-centered models that build a higher degree of student learning confidence and therefore success. hile the previous book has a more seminar style work, supported by research and application this second work has a higher degree of personal reading for teachers feel to it. The two together could offer a fantastic culmination of available resources for teachers to access to help build a case for and demonstrate tactics for moving the teacher centered plan to one that better meets the needs of learners.
