This document discusses a study on how intercultural competence affects the translation process of English students at Tridinanti University in Palembang, Indonesia. The study analyzed translations done by fourth semester English students with different cultural backgrounds. It found that while the students had diverse cultures, they demonstrated the same ability to translate the target language well by considering its cultural context. Most translations showed good word choice, correct grammar and syntax, and could be understood by readers. The document provides background on intercultural communication, translation, and the relationship between language, culture and translation competence.

Nonverbal barriers in intercultural communication
Summary
Different culture facilitates intercultural communication. These differences are identified in terms of language, type of food consumed, cultural practices, and dressing styles. The communication barrier thus sets in due to these language differences. Apart from the language mode of communication, we have body language, which is referred to as nonverbal communication. This form varies from community to community. As seen in the case of Americans and Chinese, they have varied nonverbal communication, thus making the two communities incoherent. Different meaning is usually attached to common nonverbal communication leading to misinterpretation of information. Since we cannot avoid communication, it is advised that we get to understand each other's cultural differences. This could be possible by watching movies, TV plays, reading newspapers and novels. Lastly, to minimize this effect, we are encouraged to use communication skills more frequently.
What I like about the paper
This paper has identified the specific nonverbal problems, and it has gone a further step in suggesting possible recommendations for the identified problem.
Do the authors establish the problem the paper will address?
Yes, the author is addressing what causes nonverbal communication breakdown and what are the possible solutions to these barriers.
Is there a clear, proactive thesis?
No, the paper only emphasized on the general problem facing nonverbal communication.
Is there a clear argument that defends the thesis?
No. In this paper, there is no specific thesis; hence, we cannot have a defending thesis on what does not exist.
Is the argument at any point weak or unconvincing?
Some arguments are weak since they are not supported by any evidence such as similar research done by other authors
What questions does the paper raise without answering?
This is concerning the sender of the message and the receiver. The author does not explain how this difference of misunderstanding takes place
Is the methodology clearly described?
The paper has not clearly described the methodology of the paper. There is no basis of information provided, such as the author has mentioned 55% without giving any credibility source.
Is it adequate to make the argument the authors want to make?
It is not adequate because the entire information provided is not supported by evidence
Are any problems spelled out and discussed?
Several problems have been identified and discussed. Non-understanding between communities, for instance, could be addressed by having to read newspapers and listen to TV plays.
Do the writers sufficiently establish the setting/context of the study?
The context has been established. Through giving a personal experience of what he uncounted in the United States and how fellow Chinese and American students interact gives a vivid image of what is happening.

Language variety of indonesia
This document discusses language varieties. It begins by explaining that language is central to human communication and reflects aspects of identity and culture. There are different types of language varieties, including dialects, accents, registers, styles, code-switching, and diglossia. Dialects can be regional, based on geography, or social, based on factors like class. Accents refer to phonological distinctions that indicate where a speaker is from. The document then provides examples of regional dialects in Lombok and Bima in Indonesia, showing lexical variations. It also discusses characteristics of Bimanese and Sasaknese accents.

Assignment 3 Communication Culture and ContextIn this assignment.docx
Assignment 3: Communication: Culture and Context
In this assignment, you will consider the effect of culture and context on communication. There are many definitions of culture, but most include a reference to shared patterns of behaviors and interactions, cognitive constructs, and effective understanding that are learned through a process of socialization. These shared patterns identify the members of a cultural group while also distinguishing those of another group. Culture is about symbols and language, and these elements are central to communication. The idea of something being "lost in translation" is readily apparent to most people who have studied another language and translated a passage into their own primary language. The rate of speech and importance of nonverbal aspects of communication are just a few ways culture can impact the message sent. The importance of context always varies by culture—for example, in some cultures, what is said is much more important than how it is said while in other cultures the "how" may carry much greater importance.
Tasks:
Using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, complete the following:
Analyze a recent conversation you had with a person of a different culture. Or, if you haven’t had this type of conversation recently, find a video clip online that focuses on people from different cultures communicating and analyze the clip.
Provide a brief synopsis of the conversation—what was the general content and context?
Describe how you greeted this person. Did you greet this person with a kiss, a handshake, or some other cultural mannerism? Was there additional touching or no touching at all?
Describe your physical proximity. How far were you standing from each other? What if any body language was evident? Did you maintain eye contact?
Describe the physical characteristics that might be evident. What were you wearing? Were you dressed in casuals or in business attire? Describe what the other person was wearing. How might the apparel make a difference in the conversation?
Describe the protocol for the conversation. Did you take turns talking, or did you both talk at the same time? How did you refer to each other? Do you feel like you had equal time to express yourself? Why or why not?
Did the physical setting impact what was discussed? What did you talk about? How was the conversation brought to a close? What happened at the end?
How might your own cultural affiliation have impacted this conversation? Do an analysis using support from scholarly sources.

The feelings, associations, connotations, and nuances of language b.docx
“The feelings, associations, connotations, and nuances of language both influence and are influenced by the culture” (Matsumoto & Juang, 2008, p. 227). Cultural differences exist in how people communicate with each other. You may be familiar with lexicons (what people call themselves and others), pragmatics (how language is used and understood), verbal and non-verbal communication styles; encoding; and decoding. Understanding how cultures communicate is important to effectively communicate within a multicultural environment. For example, imagine if you moved to a state or territory of the Middle East. You knew the language, but you were not aware of the cultural influence on nonverbal behaviors, such as hand gestures and interpersonal space. Would you be able to fit in?
For this Discussion, Consider cross-cultural communication.
With these thoughts in mind:
Write
a brief explanation of the influence of culture on communication. Then explain two ways misunderstandings might occur among cultures with different communication styles. Finally, propose two solutions to enhance cross-cultural communication. Provide specific examples and justify your responses with references from current literature.

METHODOLOGY III (II Bimestre Abril Agosto 2011)
The document discusses how language varies based on social context and relationships between speakers. It covers topics like speech accommodation theory, how speakers converge or diverge based on their audience, and the influence of social class and culture on language. The concept of communicative competence is also introduced, which includes grammatical, discourse, sociolinguistic, and strategic competence that allow people to communicate effectively in different situations.

The document discusses a class that focuses on understanding the influence of culture on writing. It introduces contrastive rhetoric, which examines differences in writing across cultures. While Kaplan's early work in this area made broad generalizations, later scholars recognized that writing is influenced by many factors beyond just one's native language and culture. The class considers how to apply contrastive rhetoric insights to teaching English as a second language in a way that is critically aware of issues of power and discourse. It also discusses responding effectively and sensitively to international students' writing assignments in English.
Chapter 6 PowerPoint
This chapter discusses the relationship between language and culture. It provides several examples of how language influences and reflects cultural values and norms. The chapter also examines some of the challenges of language in intercultural communication, such as differences in vocabulary, nonverbal cues, and translation. Intercultural competence involves understanding how language is intertwined with cultural perspectives.
Introduction to linguistik.pptx
The document discusses the significance of language in life. It explains that language allows for human communication and is closely linked to culture, as language is how people learn cultural rules and values. Learning additional languages can provide cognitive benefits like improved problem solving and critical thinking skills. However, language is not neutral and can be used to manipulate beliefs. The document also examines the functions of language, such as communication, social interaction and control. Finally, it explores theories about the original source of human language development.
41503117 Intercultural Communication Annotated Resource List
This annotated resource list summarizes resources for intercultural communication across various professions. It includes 1) resources on general culture and communication, 2) resources tailored for specific professions like law, healthcare, and domestic violence work, and 3) web resources and cross-cultural training organizations. One of the most highly recommended resources is a guidebook on designing intercultural communication training programs that outlines assessing needs, developing content, and evaluating programs.
Intercultural communication
This document discusses intercultural communication and cultural differences. It begins by defining intercultural communication as understanding one another without sharing a common culture. It then discusses how historically, cultures have dealt with differences by avoiding, converting, or killing those unlike themselves. The document emphasizes that understanding subjective culture, or shared patterns of thinking and behavior, is key to developing intercultural competence. It also discusses how stereotypes can arise from cultural generalizations but can be avoided by recognizing that all cultures contain diversity and no generalization applies to all individuals.
Linguistic inequality ppt
Linguistic inequality can take three forms: subjective inequality regarding beliefs and prejudices about languages, strictly linguistic inequality concerning differences in linguistic knowledge and skills, and communicative inequality involving differences in ability to communicate effectively. Subjective inequality involves prejudices and stereotypes associated with particular ways of speaking. Linguistic features may be linked to stereotypes about characteristics like intelligence. Prestige of languages or dialects is also influenced by subjective views. Linguists study these issues to better understand social attitudes and their effects.
5245_Jandt_Final_Pages_Chapter_4.pdf
This chapter discusses barriers to effective intercultural communication. It examines ethnographic and cultural approaches, as well as anxiety, assuming similarity instead of difference, and ethnocentrism as potential barriers. An example court transcript between a magistrate and Aboriginal defendant in Australia is provided and analyzed from both an ethnographic and cultural perspective. Ethnography and cultural approaches are described as complementary ways to understand breakdowns in intercultural communication. Common barriers like anxiety, assuming cultural similarity, and ethnocentrism are then explored in more detail through examples.
su20070916
This document summarizes three main ways to promote intercultural communication competence: 1) Know yourself and the target culture by understanding your own culture, attitudes, and communication style as well as the other culture's language, values, and taboos. 2) Be objective by avoiding ethnocentrism, stereotypes, and prejudices. 3) Communicate actively by considering the communication setting, showing respect and tolerance, developing empathy, and being open and flexible. The overall goal is to achieve effective and mutually beneficial intercultural communication.

Chapter 2 will review literature on why and where cross-cultural miscommunication occurs, discussing factors like cultural differences, barriers, and discourse patterns. Chapter 3 will provide activities for teachers to help students develop English skills and address cultural issues. Chapter 4 will summarize the findings and strategies.
oral com 2.pptx
Intercultural communication refers to communication between people of different cultural backgrounds. It involves the exchange of messages across languages and cultures. Sometimes intercultural communication flows smoothly, but it can also be disrupted by cultural differences, such as differing norms for nonverbal communication like gestures and interpretations of silence. Understanding cultural variations in communication is important for successful intercultural interaction, which requires skills like foreign language ability, cultural knowledge, and a willingness to accept differences.
GSfinaltheorypaper
Spencer Peak analyzes how languages shape culture through Arjun Appadurai's theory of "scapes", including languagescapes. The document discusses how globalization has led to a diversity of languages and the rise of multilingualism. While learning new languages can foster cultural understanding, the decline of some languages may threaten cultural diversity. The ideal is to embrace multilingualism while maintaining unique cultural identities, as seen in the Philippines which incorporated English without disrupting local languages and culture. In conclusion, understanding languagescapes can promote cultural unity by broadening perspectives and respect for other cultures.
Linguistic And Social Inequality
This document is an assignment on linguistic and social inequality submitted to Sohail Falaksher by Waseem Azhar Gilany for their M.Phil Linguistics program. It discusses how linguistic choices made by speakers can reveal their social status and lead to linguistic and social inequality. It identifies three types of linguistic inequality: subjective inequality based on perceptions, linguistic inequality based on vocabulary knowledge, and communicative inequality based on language use skills. A major cause of linguistic inequality is identified as linguistic prejudice, where judgments are made about people based on how they speak. The document then examines different types of linguistic prejudice and how stereotypes further contribute to perceptions of social inequality.

This chapter discusses definitions of discourse and discourse analysis, including "little d" discourse referring to language in context and "big D" discourse as specialized language of social groups. It outlines structural and functional approaches to discourse analysis and describes various disciplines and main approaches. Context and models of communication are examined, including Hymes' 16 contextual features and Halliday's three parameters of context. The development of the concept of communicative competence from Hymes to Canale and Swain to Celce-Murcia is summarized.
Applied Linguistics session 9_05_12_2021 Context and culture.pdf
This document discusses context and culture in applied linguistics. It explains that language must be analyzed both as an abstract system and as language in use, which is influenced by context like tone of voice, relationship between speakers, and shared cultural background. It then summarizes three areas of discourse analysis that contribute to understanding context: paralinguistics, pragmatics, and genres. Finally, it discusses the role of culture and issues around language rights, teaching culture, and how context is important for translation.
1 discourse analysis.ppt
The document discusses different definitions and characterizations of discourse. It defines discourse as (1) a set of terms, metaphors, and ways of talking that constitute an object, and (2) an exchange in talk or text that performs social actions. It also distinguishes between "big D" discourse, which refers to general ways of viewing the world, and "small d" discourse, which refers to actual language use. The document provides examples of toxic discourse from literature and analyzes how discourse is used to accomplish different social actions in interaction.

The document emphasizes that understanding subjective culture, or shared patterns of thinking and behavior, is key to developing intercultural competence. It also discusses how stereotypes can arise from cultural generalizations but can be avoided by recognizing that all cultures contain diversity and no generalization applies to all individuals.
Linguistic inequality ppt
Linguistic inequality can take three forms: subjective inequality regarding beliefs and prejudices about languages, strictly linguistic inequality concerning differences in linguistic knowledge and skills, and communicative inequality involving differences in ability to communicate effectively. Subjective inequality involves prejudices and stereotypes associated with particular ways of speaking. Linguistic features may be linked to stereotypes about characteristics like intelligence. Prestige of languages or dialects is also influenced by subjective views. Linguists study these issues to better understand social attitudes and their effects.

This chapter discusses barriers to effective intercultural communication. It examines ethnographic and cultural approaches, as well as anxiety, assuming similarity instead of difference, and ethnocentrism as potential barriers. An example court transcript between a magistrate and Aboriginal defendant in Australia is provided and analyzed from both an ethnographic and cultural perspective. Ethnography and cultural approaches are described as complementary ways to understand breakdowns in intercultural communication. Common barriers like anxiety, assuming cultural similarity, and ethnocentrism are then explored in more detail through examples.

This document summarizes three main ways to promote intercultural communication competence: 1) Know yourself and the target culture by understanding your own culture, attitudes, and communication style as well as the other culture's language, values, and taboos. 2) Be objective by avoiding ethnocentrism, stereotypes, and prejudices. 3) Communicate actively by considering the communication setting, showing respect and tolerance, developing empathy, and being open and flexible. The overall goal is to achieve effective and mutually beneficial intercultural communication.

Intercultural communication refers to communication between people of different cultural backgrounds. It involves the exchange of messages across languages and cultures. Sometimes intercultural communication flows smoothly, but it can also be disrupted by cultural differences, such as differing norms for nonverbal communication like gestures and interpretations of silence. Understanding cultural variations in communication is important for successful intercultural interaction, which requires skills like foreign language ability, cultural knowledge, and a willingness to accept differences.
GSfinaltheorypaper
Spencer Peak analyzes how languages shape culture through Arjun Appadurai's theory of "scapes", including languagescapes. The document discusses how globalization has led to a diversity of languages and the rise of multilingualism. While learning new languages can foster cultural understanding, the decline of some languages may threaten cultural diversity. The ideal is to embrace multilingualism while maintaining unique cultural identities, as seen in the Philippines which incorporated English without disrupting local languages and culture. In conclusion, understanding languagescapes can promote cultural unity by broadening perspectives and respect for other cultures.
Linguistic And Social Inequality
This document is an assignment on linguistic and social inequality submitted to Sohail Falaksher by Waseem Azhar Gilany for their M.Phil Linguistics program. It discusses how linguistic choices made by speakers can reveal their social status and lead to linguistic and social inequality. It identifies three types of linguistic inequality: subjective inequality based on perceptions, linguistic inequality based on vocabulary knowledge, and communicative inequality based on language use skills. A major cause of linguistic inequality is identified as linguistic prejudice, where judgments are made about people based on how they speak. The document then examines different types of linguistic prejudice and how stereotypes further contribute to perceptions of social inequality.

This chapter discusses definitions of discourse and discourse analysis, including "little d" discourse referring to language in context and "big D" discourse as specialized language of social groups. It outlines structural and functional approaches to discourse analysis and describes various disciplines and main approaches. Context and models of communication are examined, including Hymes' 16 contextual features and Halliday's three parameters of context. The development of the concept of communicative competence from Hymes to Canale and Swain to Celce-Murcia is summarized.
Applied Linguistics session 9_05_12_2021 Context and culture.pdf
This document discusses context and culture in applied linguistics. It explains that language must be analyzed both as an abstract system and as language in use, which is influenced by context like tone of voice, relationship between speakers, and shared cultural background. It then summarizes three areas of discourse analysis that contribute to understanding context: paralinguistics, pragmatics, and genres. Finally, it discusses the role of culture and issues around language rights, teaching culture, and how context is important for translation.
1 discourse analysis.ppt
The document discusses different definitions and characterizations of discourse. It defines discourse as (1) a set of terms, metaphors, and ways of talking that constitute an object, and (2) an exchange in talk or text that performs social actions. It also distinguishes between "big D" discourse, which refers to general ways of viewing the world, and "small d" discourse, which refers to actual language use. The document provides examples of toxic discourse from literature and analyzes how discourse is used to accomplish different social actions in interaction.

1. Case 3-4 Franklin Industries’ Whistleblowing (a GVV Case)Natali.docx
1. Case 3-4 Franklin Industries’ Whistleblowing (a GVV Case)
Natalie got the call she had been waiting for over six long months. Her complaint to the human resources department of Franklin Industries had been dismissed. It was HR’s conclusion that she was not retaliated against for reporting an alleged embezzlement by the Accounting Department manager. In fact, HR ruled there was no embezzlement at all. Natalie had been demoted from assistant manager of the department to staff supervisor seven months ago after informing Stuart Masters, the controller, earlier in 2015, about the embezzlement. Her blood started to boil as she thought about all the pain and agony she’d experienced these past six months without any level of satisfaction for her troubles.
Natalie Garson is a CPA who works for Franklin Industries, a publicly owned company and manufacturer of trusses and other structural components for home builders throughout the United States. Six months ago she filed a complaint with HR after discussing a sensitive matter with her best friend and coworker, Roger Harris. Natalie trusted Harris, who had six years of experience at Franklin. The essence of the discussion was that Natalie was informed by the accounting staff of what appeared to be unusual transactions between Denny King, the department manager, and an outside company no one had never heard of before. The staff had uncovered over $5 million in payments, authorized by King, to Vic Construction. No one could find any documentation about Vic, so the staff dug deeper and discovered that the owner of Vic Construction was Victoria King. Further examination determined that Victoria King and Denny King were siblings.
Once Natalie was convinced there was more to the situation than meets the eye, she informed the internal auditors, who investigated and found that Vic Construction made a $5 million electronic transfer to a separate business owned by Denny King. One thing lead to another, and it was determined by the internal auditors that King had funneled $5 million to Vic Construction, which, at a later date, transferred the money back to King. It was a $5 million embezzlement from Franklin Industries.
Natalie met with Roger Harris that night and told him about the HR decision that went against her. She was concerned whether the internal auditors would act now in light of that decision She knew the culture at Franklin was “don’t rock the boat.” That didn’t matter to her. She was always true to her values and not afraid to act when a wrongdoing had occurred. She felt particularly motivated in this case—it was personal. She felt the need to be vindicated. She hoped Roger would be supportive.
As it turned out, Roger cautioned Natalie about taking the matter any further. He had worked for Franklin a lot longer than Natalie and knew the board of directors consisted mostly of insider directors. The CEO of Franklin was also the chair of Page 181the board. It was well known in the company that whatev.

3. During the past week (or since your last entry), what has been the major economic or
business news relating to
India? http://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/economy-suffers-as-firms-tackle-
debt/article19677814.ece
In India this year, there are a fair amount of firms and businesses that are having issues paying off
interest on their loans. On top of this, fewer loans are happening and the state’s GDP growth rate has
lowered this year. The article lists several factors, one of which is pretty simple; interest rates are high
at the moment. This article on business interested me because this is an issue that is relatable to every
modernized country on Earth, how to pay off debt when you aren’t making enough this year to cover
costs? You can’t, so the unpaid portions add up. I didn’t feel like there was a strong bias in this article,
but I’m also not accustomed to the Indian financial market or its businesses. How is this story relevant
to my understanding of India? It lets me take an inside look at the current economy and how they might
be fairing in comparison. It also shows that business and banking policies are not that different on some
levels.
4. During the past week (or since your last entry), what has been the major political
news in India? http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/andhra-pradesh/patronising-congress-
again-a-historic-necessity/article19679153.ece
First, why do I consider this major political news in India? The discussions and accusations being talked
about in the article are serious and can definitely effect votes for the mentioned political parties, which
in turn can change or add new laws, regulations, taxes, and etc. The title seemed incredibly familiar to
what we always see in American newspapers about our politics. I felt that the author, or maybe the
newspaper, might actually lean more towards the BJP and TDP’s opposing forces. Other than that, there
were tons of biased quotes from both parties. So, why do I think this topic is relevant to my
understanding of India? Simply put, just as with business and banking, there is this kind of familiarity in
a way. This article lets me get an inside view on the current parties and the accusations being made,
showing me that politics is a somewhat universal language, one part attack ads, one part confusion, and
one part progress.

1. Compare and contrast Strategic and Tactical Analysis and its .docx
1. Compare and contrast Strategic and Tactical Analysis and its application to street crimes such as robbery and property crimes such as burglary. In your opinion is one more suited in addressing criminal behavior?
Strategic analysis involves the analysis over the long-term, whereas tactical analysis involves analysis in a more direct manner. Each has analysis scheme has their uses in addressing criminal behavior. To use an example with drug activity strategic analysis would be better suited to understanding who could be the future customers of drug dealers, where are possible locations that could facilitate such deals, and helping law-enforcement and community leaders come up with measures to combat drug sales. However, the tactical analysis would focus more on finding out where the current supply of drugs is coming in from, who the leader(s) is(are), and cracking down on local dealers. While there is overlap between the two, I believe that tactical analysis is the best when addressing criminal behavior, because of the more immediate results that it provides.
2. What is CPTED? Please elaborate on how CPTED may be an effective means to reduce a criminals Modus operandi? Provide an example.
CPTED is an acronym that stands for crime prevention through environmental design which is “The proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear and incidence of crime, and an improvement in the quality of life” (Cozens, Saville, & Hillier, 2005). This means that CPTED is all of the passive defenses that the environment provides law-abiding citizens against criminally minded individuals. These defenses can be broken down into six different aspects that work together to create CPTED they are: territoriality, surveillance, access control, target hardening, image/maintenance, and active support (Cozens, Saville, & Hillier, 2005). All of these aspects work together to decrease crime in the area.

1. Coalition ProposalVaccination Policy for Infectious Disease P.docx
1. Coalition Proposal
Vaccination Policy for Infectious Disease Prevention and Control
Scope of the Problem
Vaccines have done an excellent job at preventing many diseases, some of which can be deadly if not prevented. When bacteria or viruses enter the body, they immediately begin to attack and multiply, which then causes an infection. The immune system will then fight off the infection and establish antibodies, which will help recognize and fight off the same disease in the future. For this very reason, it has been important for children to be vaccinated at an early age so that they may establish those antibodies their bodies need. Vaccines act as the disease so that the body may produce antibodies, but the good thing is that it won’t cause an infection (CDC, 2017).
There are current policies that mandate vaccinations in the U.S., for example, all children are required to be up to date on their vaccines before beginning school. The problem is that there are many loopholes and exceptions to the rule, whether it’s due to religious reasons or other medical issues. Because of this, there are still many children and adults who have yet to be fully compliant with vaccine requirements
Some important statistics to note (Johns Hopkins Medicine):
· CDC estimated 2,700 new cases of hepatitis A in the U.S.
· It is estimated that in 2011, 19,000 new cases of hepatitis B and 17,000 cases of hepatitis C occurred.
· In 2012, nearly 10,000 new cases of tuberculosis were reported.
· Approximately 36,000 people per year die from influenza and pneumonia.
· 50,000 new cases of HIV infection occur annually.
· In 2012, new cases of STD’s were reported, including HPV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, HIV, and Syphilis.
Who is affected by this problem? Identify.
Children are mainly affected by this problem due to parents’ hesitancy for vaccinations. Although law mandates for children to be vaccinated for school enrollment, parents have the option to use exemptions to avoid having their children vaccinated. Currently, medical exemptions are allowed for medical reasons in all states, and it is estimated that one to three percent of children are excused from vaccinations because of these exemptions. Parents have continued to use reasons to avoid vaccinations, for example, the belief that the decline in vaccine-preventable diseases is due to improved health care, hygiene, and sanitation (Ventola, C. L., 2016).
Health disparities among Blacks, Hispanics, and Whites have played a huge role in terms of vaccination coverage. Studies have shown that health insurance has a direct impact on the vaccination coverage in adults, therefore, low-income families who can’t afford health insurance will most likely not get the vaccines they need. With that being said, uninsured prevalence was higher among non-Hispanic blacks (19.5%) and Hispanics (30.1%) compared with non-Hispanic whites (11.1%) (Lu, P., et al, 2015).

1. Company Description and Background
a. Weight Watchers was created by Jean Nindetch in 1963 when she began to invite her friends and neighbors so that they can discuss their weight loss issues and how they could lose weight successfully. The basic concept of WW plan consisted of two components: the WW program and group support. Comprised of a food plan and an activity plan. WW eliminated counting calories by introducing a point system.
b. Targeted women 25 to 55
c. 2017 about 1 million members who attended 32,000 WW meetings around the world organized by more then 9,000 leaders who had successful lost weight using WW.
d. Record high revenue 2011 $1.8 billion, in 2012 a slight reduction occurred but beat all pre-2011 numbers, in 2013 is when business began take a turn for the worse.
e. December 2015, WW launched a SmartPoints system which was a scale for food management. It was introduced to work along with a new weight management program called “Beyond the Scale.” Even thought doctors and nutrition’s approved the program, then-CEO David Kirchhoff felt it wasn’t enough because the programs didn’t take into account social, environmental and behavioral factors that led members to fail at their weight loss journey. Shortly after in August 2013, CEO Kirchhoff resigned in order to “pursue other opportunities” which left WW struggling to adjust their business strategy in the Internet Age.
2. Problems Posed In The Case
a. CEO Jim Chambers resigned in September 2016 afterward a tumultuous year with stock prices dropping 54% that year alone and seven straight quarters of declining sales.
b. Next generation diet programs and online apps like MyFitnessPal and FitBit were providing the same services for free of charge. CEO Chambers admitted that “consumers have changed and that WW hadn’t kept the pace.”
c. As obesity levels increased worldwide, the market for weight loss products was growing exponentially, however, WW had to increase customer value and seek new target segments to fend off competitors from traditional rivalry’s like Nutrisystem, Slim Fast, Medifast, Jenny Craig and the Biggest Loser.
d. Emergence of fad diets
e. Decreased effectiveness of marketing and advertising programs
f. The need for developing new and innovative products and services that could be delivered online or via mobile apps
g. WW International faced stock price volatility because of rival weight management options such as the over-the-counter weight-loss drug Alli launched by GlaxoSmithKline in June 2006 and the development of Allergan’s Lap-Band device.
h. Worldwide Health Organization estimated 2.3 billion people to be overweight by 2015 and more than 700 million obese.
i. The development of effective weight-management methods i.e. pharmaceuticals, surgical options such as the Lap-Band.

Isabella Mia Interview as a Physical Therapist
Isabella Mia is a physical therapist who is working in the US as a therapist for the last 10 years. I have selected her for the interview because the physical therapist is a tough job and it is important to consider a person who has worked in it for a long time to get the right insights. She is a very dedicated person towards her work and this the reason behind her success in this field. I met her for this interview on a coffee shop and following is the information that I got from her.
Seyma Unal : Do you have a specific reason why you wanted to become a physical therapist?
Isabella Mia : I believe that this is a very rewarding career. I always wanted to do something that can ease other people and in this profession, we have contact with customers .
1. Choose a case for the paper that interests you. Most choose a .docx
1. Choose a case for the paper that interests you. Most choose a case that they experienced on the job (e.g., company merger, reorganization, adoption of innovation or new procedure). If you have never experienced anything remotely like this, then you could choose a case in your community that interested you (e.g., political issues like taxes, land acquisition, school boards). If none of those apply then you can choose a case that is personal to you (e.g., getting a raise, selling something to a client or customer). If you have never worked, then choose a case you may experienced as an intern or student. I am pretty liberal about the kind of case that you choose.
2. Choose a case that involved a failed change attempt or proposes a change that has never been attempted. DO NOT CHOOSE A CASE THAT WAS SUCCESSFUL. The outline is hard to use when describing successful change attempts.
3. Write the paper as an expanded outline. That means writing paragraphs under the lower level headings. By using the outline as headings, you won’t leave something out.
4. With regard to length, some overwrite Section I. I think they get into describing the problem and go on a tirade. Although cathartic, it eats space. Section II should be relatively brief and the shortest of the three sections. Section III is where you should be writing a lot. That is where you are showing me that you can use the course content to propose an effective change.
5. Remember that you will be sending the paper to me as an attachment. I will grade it and make comments in the file. I will return it to you at the SAME address from which I received it. IF FOR SOME REASON, YOU DON’T WANT ANYONE TO SEE THE PAPER, USE YOUR STUDENT EMAIL ADDRESS. DO NOT USE YOUR WORK ADDRESS.
6. I will erase all papers at the end of the term. I never share papers with others.
Below I will give you some insights into the outline.
SUGGESTED OUTLINE FOR CHANGE MANAGEMENT PAPERS
I. Statement of problem area. In this section, describe the change attempt and the key players.
A. Background of change attempt.
1. Nature of change (What is being proposed?).
In this section, provide an overview of the change including a brief history.
2. Issues (Why is it being proposed?).
If you are writing about a failed change, indicate why it was proposed and how it failed. If you are writing about a proposed change, then describe the problem it is intended to resolve.
3. Change Agent(s). This section is focused on the people who proposed or will propose the change. If there are only a few change agents, you can describe what each on is like. If you are there many, then describe their general characteristics.
4.
A. Personality. What are they like? If you want, you can refer to the personalities I mention in the handout on integrative bargaining.
B. Power. What kind of power do the change agents have and how much? Is their power formal (e.g., authority) and/or or informal (e.g., expertise, chari.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Barna Discuss this barrier, its examples and ways to avoid it. 2. Languages can also build walls in intercultural communication. It is not enough to understand the language of the other culture or a have a good interpreter is an assistant, it is important to understand "the world" of that language and of this culture as each word and each thought carries with it important information about another nation, group and/or culture. Discuss how experiential equivalence is different from conceptual equivalence, think of examples and challenges that might be caused by discrepancies between those two. Suggest possible solutions.
