Students need a better Education to be ready for College
Today education in high school is different from what most students face in college. Every year many students graduate from high school from all around the world, but the question that many students do not ask themselves is “I am prepared to move forward.” Many students struggle when they take classes at colleges. Sometimes they fail, do not do well in college and they feel disappointed and drop out of college. Many students feel that everything is new for them because the way that they had been taught was different or maybe it was a basic style. Students believe that high school should be more like preparation to enter to college; teachers should teach as college professors do, so that the students do not get surprised when they enter into a college institution.
High school is the end for some students, but for other, it is only a new beginning. Students face many responsibilities, new ways of learning, and different ways of teaching when they are introduce into a college institution. For some students, it is hard to adapt to this new ways of learning because in high school it was different. Yates Kathy Jo Ed Ph. made a survey to find out if students were prepare for college.
‘The analysis indicated that students who entered college prepared for college-level work, based on earned ACT scores, were much more likely to graduate within 3 years as compared to students who entered college underprepared and required to take developmental courses. Further, the study revealed that the number of developmental courses and the number of developmental academic subject content areas students were required to take was inversely related to the 3-year persistence-to-graduation rate.’ (Graduation rates: A comparison of first-time, full-time freshmen who entered a community college prepared and those who entered underprepared for college-level work) (Yates, 2011)
Some examples are, in high school, teachers grade students for the effort and not for doing it the right way, another example is the discipline of doing things in a professional way, not in a basic way. Students got used to being baby-sat in high school. In college, students feel that teachers do not care about them because teachers do not tell them what they did wrong. Students need to know that high school is not the same as college. This is the big surprise that students find when they enter into an institution. Teachers treat students as an adult and that most students do not understand it.
For the most part students in high school learn in only one learning style. Students learn the basic subjects in an easy way, not like college level. Crosby, Lynne Sponaugle, Ph.D survey was that,

Unfinished: Insights From Ongoing Work to Accelerate Outcomes for Students Wi...Jeremy Knight
Despite some gains over the past 20 years, significant numbers of students are not meeting grade-level expectations as defined by performance on academic assessments. Meanwhile, few schools are able to support the sort of accelerated academic learning needed to catch students up to grade-level expectations.
Evidence indicates this is not for lack of educator commitment or dedication. Instead, many educators lack clarity about how to help students catch up. Common messages about holding a high bar for academic rigor and personalizing learning to meet students where they are can be perceived as being at odds with one another.
“Unfinished: Insights From Ongoing Work to Accelerate Outcomes for Students With Learning Gaps” synthesizes a broad body of research on the science of learning in order to inform efforts to help students close gaps and meet grade-level expectations. This deck argues that helping students catch up is not about rigor or personalization — classrooms need both.
Closing learning gaps requires students to be motivated and engaged to grapple with challenging, grade-level skills and knowledge — while also having their individual learning needs met.
The report identifies what must happen among educators, systems-level leaders, teacher developers, instructional materials providers, and technology experts to move beyond the dichotomy of “rigor versus personalization” and toward a future that effectively blends the two.

IMPACT OF REMOTE LEARNING TO THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE.pptxZULAIHAGUIAMALON1
The document discusses a study that aimed to determine the impact of remote learning on the academic performance of senior high school students at Datu Paglas National High School. Specifically, the study sought to understand students' demographic profiles and their perspectives on how remote learning impacted their performance. Surveys were administered to 60 senior high students to gather data on their access to devices, effectiveness of remote learning, time management, and enjoyment of online classes. The results showed that while most students had average views of remote learning, they found it only slightly effective due to challenges like unstable internet and lack of resources. The study concluded remote learning had a negative influence on students' education, and recommended teachers provide more support and materials to help students during online classes.

GROUP 1- PRACTICAL Research paper for 12lynsumbrana
This document discusses factors that influence the strand preference of grade 10 students at Liloy National High School. It presents a literature review on interest in strand, peer influence, and parental support as key factors. Regarding interest in strand, personal interest is found to be the most influential factor in choosing a strand according to previous studies. Peer influence is also identified as a strong predictor that can affect students' decisions. Stable family support and socioeconomic status are shown to provide benefits that lead to higher academic achievement and influence the strand chosen. The study aims to investigate strand preferences and factors affecting preferences among grade 10 students at the school.
1) The document discusses strategies to improve student success in developmental education courses. It notes that around half of community college students and one-fifth of four-year college students require remedial courses, and fewer than one in four students who take developmental courses complete a degree.
2) One strategy discussed is course acceleration, which uses multiple measures like noncognitive assessments and placement test scores to potentially place some students directly into college-level courses rather than developmental prerequisites. The SuccessNavigator assessment provides schools with noncognitive data to help identify students who may be misplaced and could succeed if accelerated.
3) A case study is described that found students who were accelerated based on their SuccessNavigator results in addition
The document summarizes a proposed research study on students' perceptions and attitudes towards modular distance learning. The study will focus on students at Sta Barbara Integrated High School who used modular learning during the 2020-2021 school year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The results could help administrators and teachers improve modular learning and support students.
Learning loss and learning inequalities during the covid-19 pandemic: an anal...Christian Bokhove
The transition to distance schooling during the pandemic has exacerbated inequalities by socio-economic status (SES) due both to the gap in the volume of schoolwork completed and to the relative ability or inability of some parents to support their children’s learning. In this presentation I will report on a longitudinal analysis of Understanding Society data from the two school closures in April 2020 and January 2021, which colleagues Dr Nic Pensiero, Prof Tony Kelly and I conducted for the ESRC. The analysis included parents' occupations, computer availability and parents' work patterns. The provision of schoolwork improved in both primary and secondary schools in the second closure period compared to the first school closure period, with the increased provision explained by the more lessons, greater availability of computers and families being better prepared for the second school closure. While parental occupation alone was found to be a significant determinant of differences in the volume of schoolwork among students, its effect was amplified when combined with student access to computers, family circumstances and parental working patterns. Primary school children of single parents who worked from home were able to reduce the gap in schoolwork done compared to the most advantaged socio-economic group, but generally, inequalities between socio-economic groups in the uptake of schoolwork remained stable between the two school closure periods. I will discuss what these findings have taught us.
The lesson emphasizes the importance of obtaining at least a high school diploma for future career and financial success by explaining the relationship between education level, salary, and cost of living; it reviews New Jersey's high school graduation requirements to help 9th grade students achieve academic success; and incorporates small group and individual activities to engage students in learning about enhancing their future opportunities through school achievement.

This document provides an overview of outcome-based education (OBE). It discusses that OBE is a student-centered approach that focuses on empirically measuring student performance outcomes rather than inputs like resources. While OBE does not specify teaching styles, it generally promotes constructivist methods over direct instruction. Assessment is based on whether students demonstrate required skills and content mastery. Implementation of OBE varies by country and agency, with some adopting it for all students and others facing criticism from parents and teachers.

Evidence-Based Practices to Guide Clinical Practices

Introduction
Evidence best practices is an approach that translates excellent scientific research
evidence to enhanced practical decisions aiming at improving health. EBP involves using
research findings obtained from systematic data collection that is achieved through observations
and analyzed experiments. The connection of research, theory, and EBP are interlinked in that
the delivery of one results in another aspect's discovery. Through research findings, a theory is
discovered, and through various experiments and observations, evidence-based practices are
identified.
Interrelationship Between the Theory, Research, and EBP.
According to Cannon & Boswell (2016), health professionals require standards to analyze
behavioral treatments in the behavioral sciences. Through complete incorporation and
implementation processes, health professionals must value EBP processes, health theories, and
research. Through experience, health practitioners must learn to integrate research results to
determine the best treatment plans suitable for patients. Through this research results,
experiments, and evidence, health practitioners with academicians ally to discover a theory. The
treatments are offered according to patients' values, interests, and preferences (Cannon &
Boswell 2016). The values increase practitioners' skills and knowledge to analyze research
outcomes effectively. Nurses are expected to think critically after being taught and encouraged,
which corresponds with evidence-based practices. Nurses' critical thinking skills require a
foundation on which proven research and tested data can be based. The proven research,
evidence-based practices, and a good foundation all connect to form a theory that research can
rely on and nurses can use to prove their practices.

Additionally, health professionals at all levels must identify challenges and arising
questions to address patients' needs and offer quality practices to discover appropriate
interventions suitable for every challenge. Health professionals are directly involved in research
projects that allow them to understand the best methods to publish for evidence-based practices.
Through different researches and publications, health professionals like advanced practice nurses
use research to solve health dilemmas. Nurses find platforms centered on tested clarifications
through nursing practices and methodical examinations from research to build a base for
procedures and care.
Moreover, research is a scientific procedure that anticipates outcomes through the use of
fundamental expertise. Research processes enhance the capacity of discipline through clarity and
visualized aspects. The discipline's ability to put i ...

Green Book Analysis
Social stratification exists in almost every place that human’s dwell. Nonetheless, race
remains one of the most controversial elements of social stratification. The film Green Book
wants the audience to learn that there are no differences between humans regardless of their
race. While watching it, I was concerned that the script might have glossed over Shirley and
other African-Americans face. The newfound abundance of clean, inexpensive cars in the
1930s was more than a matter of convenience for middle-class Americans (IMDb, 2020). It
opened up new opportunities, giving them the freedom to fly across the world at their own
pace without having to rely on anyone. Also, in a constitutionally segregated world in some
areas and functionally segregated almost everywhere else, this was so for African Americans
(Lemire, 2018). However, while white travelers could travel with relative ease, stopping at
restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, and places to stay as they wished, African Americans
faced greater challenges. Staying in the wrong hotel or attempting to eat at the wrong
restaurant could result in you being ejected or worse.
The Negro Motorist Green Book was not the only travel guide for African-Americans,
but it was the most popular. Victor Hugo Green, an African-American mail carrier from
Harlem who served in Hackensack, New Jersey, designed it. Green worked on the effort for
almost three decades, from 1936 to 1966, soon after the Civil Rights Act was signed into law,
including a four-year pause during WWII (Diamond, 2018). The Green Book quickly
established itself as the most important document for black travelers in America, outlining
where they could eat, drink, and sleep without being abused or worse. Green Book depicts
various discriminatory prejudices that permeated American life in the early and mid-
twentieth centuries, ranging from snide remarks and racial epithets to outright hatred.

This will help students choose courses aligned with their strengths and interests, and support the Philippines' economic goals.
This document outlines a Title I school improvement plan. The plan may be modified over time based on progress. Key elements include instructional strategies like differentiated instruction, additional instructional time for students, and ensuring all teachers are highly qualified. Goals include decreasing the percentage of students not meeting reading standards and increasing the percentage exceeding math standards. Strategies to support lower-performing students and increase parental involvement are described. Teachers were included in decision-making and will take on leadership roles such as the leadership team, student support team, and departmental chairs to strategically plan and implement best practices.

The document summarizes the achievements of Denton ISD schools for the 2012-13 school year. It notes that all Denton ISD schools met standard on the new Texas Performance Index accountability system, an achievement not attained by many surrounding districts. It then provides an overview of the four indices that make up the Performance Index framework: Student Achievement, Student Progress, Closing Performance Gaps, and Postsecondary Readiness. Schools and districts must meet standards separately and collectively in all four indices to meet overall standard. The document congratulates Denton ISD teachers, staff, leaders, students, and parents for their hard work in making every school a success last year.
The document provides information about the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), including:
1) The CCSS are an effort by states to define common standards in K-12 education to prepare students for college and careers regardless of which state they live in.
2) The standards were developed through collaboration between experts, teachers, and others and have been adopted by 45 states and territories.
3) Implementing the CCSS will impact students with disabilities by holding them to the same high standards with supports like accommodations, assistive technologies, and teacher professional development on helping struggling students meet the standards.

The document outlines the challenges and priorities of a superintendent for the San Gabriel USD related to improving student achievement. Key areas of focus include identifying achievement gaps between high and low achieving schools, developing accurate student data to guide decisions, addressing inequity while maintaining district confidence, and engaging teachers, families, and the community in conversations around achievement. Structural barriers like course placement are noted as influencing student outcomes from middle to high school.
GROUP 1- PRACTICAL Research paper for 12lynsumbrana
This document discusses factors that influence the strand preference of grade 10 students at Liloy National High School. It presents a literature review on interest in strand, peer influence, and parental support as key factors. Regarding interest in strand, personal interest is found to be the most influential factor in choosing a strand according to previous studies. Peer influence is also identified as a strong predictor that can affect students' decisions. Stable family support and socioeconomic status are shown to provide benefits that lead to higher academic achievement and influence the strand chosen. The study aims to investigate strand preferences and factors affecting preferences among grade 10 students at the school.
1) The document discusses strategies to improve student success in developmental education courses. It notes that around half of community college students and one-fifth of four-year college students require remedial courses, and fewer than one in four students who take developmental courses complete a degree.
2) One strategy discussed is course acceleration, which uses multiple measures like noncognitive assessments and placement test scores to potentially place some students directly into college-level courses rather than developmental prerequisites. The SuccessNavigator assessment provides schools with noncognitive data to help identify students who may be misplaced and could succeed if accelerated.
3) A case study is described that found students who were accelerated based on their SuccessNavigator results in addition
The document summarizes a proposed research study on students' perceptions and attitudes towards modular distance learning. The study will focus on students at Sta Barbara Integrated High School who used modular learning during the 2020-2021 school year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A questionnaire will be used to examine students' demographic characteristics and views on modular learning support services. The results could help administrators and teachers improve modular learning and support students.
Learning loss and learning inequalities during the covid-19 pandemic: an anal...Christian Bokhove
The transition to distance schooling during the pandemic has exacerbated inequalities by socio-economic status (SES) due both to the gap in the volume of schoolwork completed and to the relative ability or inability of some parents to support their children’s learning. In this presentation I will report on a longitudinal analysis of Understanding Society data from the two school closures in April 2020 and January 2021, which colleagues Dr Nic Pensiero, Prof Tony Kelly and I conducted for the ESRC. The analysis included parents' occupations, computer availability and parents' work patterns. The provision of schoolwork improved in both primary and secondary schools in the second closure period compared to the first school closure period, with the increased provision explained by the more lessons, greater availability of computers and families being better prepared for the second school closure. While parental occupation alone was found to be a significant determinant of differences in the volume of schoolwork among students, its effect was amplified when combined with student access to computers, family circumstances and parental working patterns. Primary school children of single parents who worked from home were able to reduce the gap in schoolwork done compared to the most advantaged socio-economic group, but generally, inequalities between socio-economic groups in the uptake of schoolwork remained stable between the two school closure periods. I will discuss what these findings have taught us.
The lesson emphasizes the importance of obtaining at least a high school diploma for future career and financial success by explaining the relationship between education level, salary, and cost of living; it reviews New Jersey's high school graduation requirements to help 9th grade students achieve academic success; and incorporates small group and individual activities to engage students in learning about enhancing their future opportunities through school achievement.
The Hillsboro School District 2010 Annual Report summarizes the District's performance and key initiatives. It notes that all schools received satisfactory or higher ratings on state assessments, with 10 elementary schools receiving outstanding ratings. It also discusses financial challenges facing the District like state budget shortfalls. The report concludes by profiling the District's four feeder groups centered around its four high schools.
This study aims to determine the perceived impact of absenteeism on the academic performance of grade 12 students at Calamba Integrated School for the 2017-2018 school year. Specifically, it seeks to understand the demographic profile of students and assess the impact of absenteeism in terms of failing grades, low grades, and lack of learning. It also aims to identify potential action plans to reduce absenteeism, such as implementing an attendance policy, rewarding good attendance, and offering more school activities. The study is limited to 15 male and female students from two grade 12 sections and uses a questionnaire to collect data on absenteeism and its relationship to academic performance.

This document provides an overview of outcome-based education (OBE). It discusses that OBE is a student-centered approach that focuses on empirically measuring student performance outcomes rather than inputs like resources. While OBE does not specify teaching styles, it generally promotes constructivist methods over direct instruction. Assessment is based on whether students demonstrate required skills and content mastery. Implementation of OBE varies by country and agency, with some adopting it for all students and others facing criticism from parents and teachers.

Evidence-Based Practices to Guide Clinical Practices

Introduction
Evidence best practices is an approach that translates excellent scientific research
evidence to enhanced practical decisions aiming at improving health. EBP involves using
research findings obtained from systematic data collection that is achieved through observations
and analyzed experiments. The connection of research, theory, and EBP are interlinked in that
the delivery of one results in another aspect's discovery. Through research findings, a theory is
discovered, and through various experiments and observations, evidence-based practices are
identified.
Interrelationship Between the Theory, Research, and EBP.
According to Cannon & Boswell (2016), health professionals require standards to analyze
behavioral treatments in the behavioral sciences. Through complete incorporation and
implementation processes, health professionals must value EBP processes, health theories, and
research. Through experience, health practitioners must learn to integrate research results to
determine the best treatment plans suitable for patients. Through this research results,
experiments, and evidence, health practitioners with academicians ally to discover a theory. The
treatments are offered according to patients' values, interests, and preferences (Cannon &
Boswell 2016). The values increase practitioners' skills and knowledge to analyze research
outcomes effectively. Nurses are expected to think critically after being taught and encouraged,
which corresponds with evidence-based practices. Nurses' critical thinking skills require a
foundation on which proven research and tested data can be based. The proven research,
evidence-based practices, and a good foundation all connect to form a theory that research can
rely on and nurses can use to prove their practices.
3
Additionally, health professionals at all levels must identify challenges and arising
questions to address patients' needs and offer quality practices to discover appropriate
interventions suitable for every challenge. Health professionals are directly involved in research
projects that allow them to understand the best methods to publish for evidence-based practices.
Through different researches and publications, health professionals like advanced practice nurses
use research to solve health dilemmas. Nurses find platforms centered on tested clarifications
through nursing practices and methodical examinations from research to build a base for
procedures and care.
Moreover, research is a scientific procedure that anticipates outcomes through the use of
fundamental expertise. Research processes enhance the capacity of discipline through clarity and
visualized aspects. The discipline's ability to put i ...

Green Book Analysis
Social stratification exists in almost every place that human’s dwell. Nonetheless, race
remains one of the most controversial elements of social stratification. The film Green Book
wants the audience to learn that there are no differences between humans regardless of their
race. While watching it, I was concerned that the script might have glossed over Shirley and
other African-Americans face. The newfound abundance of clean, inexpensive cars in the
1930s was more than a matter of convenience for middle-class Americans (IMDb, 2020). It
opened up new opportunities, giving them the freedom to fly across the world at their own
pace without having to rely on anyone. Also, in a constitutionally segregated world in some
areas and functionally segregated almost everywhere else, this was so for African Americans
(Lemire, 2018). However, while white travelers could travel with relative ease, stopping at
restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, and places to stay as they wished, African Americans
faced greater challenges. Staying in the wrong hotel or attempting to eat at the wrong
restaurant could result in you being ejected or worse.
The Negro Motorist Green Book was not the only travel guide for African-Americans,
but it was the most popular. Victor Hugo Green, an African-American mail carrier from
Harlem who served in Hackensack, New Jersey, designed it. Green worked on the effort for
almost three decades, from 1936 to 1966, soon after the Civil Rights Act was signed into law,
including a four-year pause during WWII (Diamond, 2018). The Green Book quickly
established itself as the most important document for black travelers in America, outlining
where they could eat, drink, and sleep without being abused or worse. Green Book depicts
various discriminatory prejudices that permeated American life in the early and mid-
twentieth centuries, ranging from snide remarks and racial epithets to outright hatred.

Part 1
The film I chose was Ben-Hur (1959), which is an adventure/historical film by director
William Wyler. The film is a work of fiction based on the 1880 book Ben-Hur: A Tale of the
Christ by author Lee Wallace and is the third film adaption of multiple films based upon the
story of the fictional character Ben-Hur (Brayson, 2016). I personally enjoyed this 3 hour and
42-minute film due to the directors’ masterful work even though the film was made in 1959.
William Wyler utilized different cinematography and editing tools such as D.W.
Griffiths intercutting, panning, close-up, and dissolve techniques throughout the film to depict
each scene and enhance the quality of the film (Gutmann, 2010). With the use of D.W. Griffiths
cinematography/editing techniques, William Wyler managed to show different angles of a scene
better and pan for more use of the space because of newer technology unlike the straight on view
that had to be used in George Melies’s A Trip To The Moon (1902) due to the technology at
that time. Sound syncing really came a long way from the early 1900’s and this film perfectly
synced the sounds with what was happening in each scene (The History of Sound at the Movies,
2014). There is a scene about an ancient Roman naval battle taking place and I believe all parts
from sound, to editing, and cinematography come together during this battle scene. Before the
battle takes place the Admiral of the ship tests the boat rowers which were slaves by having them
run through different battle speeds of the ship. There is a drummer that helps keep the rowers in
sync, so as the Admiral yelled out “attack speed” the drummer started drumming and you can
hear the multitude of sounds from the music intensifying, the drummer drumming faster to the
changing ship speeds, to the exhaustion of the men as they row throughout this particular scene.
Once the battle begins, the battle music intensifies, and the director used cross-cutting to go
between the battle taking place outside the ship and back to the men under the deck rowing the
3
boat as the battle draws on. The director also used close-up shots to show the different
expressions on a few characters faces during the battle and finishes with the dissolve effect after
the battle is over to transition to Ben-Hur and the Admiral being stranded in the ocean. William
Wyler used the dissolve feature multiple time throughout the film to transition between locations
and nighttime and daytime, I really enjoy this feature because it makes the scenes flow smoothly
instead of just abruptly cutting off. Another interesting thing added into the film is an
intermission because the length of the film, this gives time to get a drink or more popcorn and
something I have only seen down in very few films. The dir ...

Client Situation
You are a financial planner with a specialty in risk management. You’ve completed the LLQP and
are licensed to sell insurance products. You love your career and have built a successful practice
based mainly on referrals from your satisfied clients.
Jack, age 49, and Jill, age 48, are one of those referrals. Jack is Vice-President of Marketing at a
mid-sized systems firm. His salary is $190,000 + bonus. Last year his bonus was $40,000. Jill is
an accountant in private practice. She works from home and typically bills $150,000 a year
(roughly $100,000 after expenses). They feel pretty comfortable financially but have asked you to
flag any gaps that you can see in their risk management strategy. They also have specific questions
that they’d like you to address.
Jack and Jill are married with two children who live at home: Tracey, age 22 and Travis, age 17.
Jill’s mother, Lauren age 75, is widowed. Although she is financially independent, she moved in
with Jill and her family after the recent death of her husband. She contributes to the family’s
expenses and is especially devoted to her granddaughter, Tracey.
Tracey, a happy and outgoing woman, was born with Down Syndrome, a common genetic
disorder. Otherwise, Tracey is in good health and could easily live to age 60. Jack and Jill would
like to keep Tracey at home as long as possible but they are concerned about her ability to adapt if
one or both of them dies unexpectedly. As a result, they’re considering moving her into a group
home in their city. The group home provides full support to residents. The fee for this year is
$58,250. Tracey has seen the place and likes it, in no small part b ...

ABOUT THIS HANDBOOK
Purpose of the Handbook
This handbook was developed to provide Ashford University Early Childhood Education and
Child Development students with a resource to utilize when creating effective lesson plans.
Educators must be able to create an effective lesson plan so they can successfully teach
children the developmental and academic skills they need to grow, develop, and learn. As
Kostelnik, Rupiper, Soderman, & Whiren (2014) explain, “Planning is a mental process, and a
lesson plan is the written record of that process” (p. 81).
Design of the Handbook
“A lesson plan is the instructor’s road map of what students need to learn and how it will be
done effectively” (Milkova, 2014, para. 1). This handbook is your “road map” to creating
effective lesson plans. Each section of the handbook will serve as a different stop along your
journey. With each stop you make, you will gain important information about a component
of a lesson plan: what it is, its purpose, how to effectively develop each section of the lesson
plan, and concrete examples that model the individual sections. By the end of your trip, you
will be able to create effective lesson plans that will allow your students to learn the
developmental and academic skills they need to master. So, pack your bags and come along
for a fun and informative ride.

GOALS
What is a lesson goal?
A lesson goal guides the direction of the lesson. “Goals come from an outside source [such
as] a text, program goals, or state standards”(Kostelnik et al., 2014, p. 85 ). The goal is a
broad, general statement that tells you what you want your students to do when the lesson
is complete. Think of the goal of the lesson as a target that you are trying to reach. The goal
of the lesson should provide the framework for you to create a more detailed and
measurable learning objective.
Why are lesson goals important?

Kilimanjaro is a snow-covered mountain 19,710 feet high, and is said to be the highest mountain in Africa.
Its western summit is called the Masai "Ngaje Ngai," the House of God. Close to the western summit there
is the dried and frozen carcass of a leopard. No one has explained what the leopard was seeking at that
altitude.

when it starts."
"Is it really?"
"Absolutely. I'm awfully sorry about the odor though. That must bother you."
"Don't! Please don't."
"Look at them," he said. "Now is it sight or is it scent that brings them like that?"
The cot the man lay on was in the wide shade of a mimosa tree and as he looked out past
the shade onto the glare of the plain there were three of the big birds squatted obscenely,
while in the sky a dozen more sailed, making quick-moving shadows as they passed.
"They've been there since the day the truck broke down," he said. "Today's the first time
any have lit on the ground. I watched the way they sailed very carefully at first in case I
ever wanted to use them in a story. That's funny now.""I wish you wouldn't," she said.
"I'm only talking," he said. "It's much easier if I talk. But I don't want to bother you."
"You know it doesn't bother me," she said. "It's that I've gotten so very nervous not being
able to do anything. I think we might make it as easy as we can until the plane comes."
"Or until the plane doesn't come."
"Please tell me what I can do. There must be something I can do.
"You can take the leg off and that might stop it, though I doubt it. Or you can shoot me.
You're a good shot now. I taught you to shoot, didn't I?"
"Please don't talk that way. Couldn't I read to you?"

"Read what?"
"Anything in the book that we haven't read."
"I can't listen to it," he said." Talking is the easiest. We quarrel and that makes the time
pass."
"I don't quarrel. I never want to quarrel. Let's not quarrel any more. No matter how
nervous we get. Maybe they will be back with another truck today. Maybe the plane will
come."
"I don't want to move," the man said. "There is no sense in moving now except to make it

Assignment 2 Winter 2022
Problem 1
Assume you have the option to buy one of three bonds. All have the same degree of default risk
and mature in 15 years. The first is a zero-coupon bond that pays $1,000 at maturity. The
second has a 7 percent coupon rate and pays the $70 coupon once per year. The third has a 9
percent coupon rate and pays the $90 coupon once per year.
a. If all three bonds are now priced to yield 8 percent to maturity, what are their prices?
b. If you expect their yields to maturity to be 8 percent at the beginning of next year, what will
their prices be then? What is your before-tax holding period return on each bond? If your tax
bracket is 30 percent on ordinary income and 20 percent on capital gains income, what will
your after-tax rate of return be on each? Assume you do not sell the bonds.
c. Recalculate your answer to (b) under the assumption that you expect the yields to maturity on
each bond to be 7 percent at the beginning of next year.
d. Re-do the calculations in parts b and c above, assuming you will sell the bonds at the end of the
year.
Problem 2
A University endowment fund has sought your advice on its fixed-income portfolio strategy.
The characteristics of the portfolios current holdings are listed below:
Market
Credit Maturity Coupon Modified Value of
Bond Rating (yrs.) Rate (%) Duration Convexity Position
A Cnd. Govt. 3 0 2.727 9.9 $30,000

E Aa3 12 0 10.909 128.9 $30,000
$150,000
a) Calculate the modified duration for this portfolio.
b) Suppose you learn that the modified duration of the endowment’s liabilities is 6.5 years.
Identify whether the bond portfolio is: i) immunized against interest rate risk, ii) exposed to net
price risk, or iii) exposed to net re-investment risk. Briefly explain what will happen to the net
position of the endowment fund if in the future there is a significant parallel upward shift in the
yield curve.
c) Your current active view for the fixed income market over the coming months is that Treasury
yields will decline and corporate credit spreads will also decrease. Briefly discuss how you
could restructure the existing portfolio to take advantage of this view.

Introduction
Regulating biofilms for injury and insertion can have a variety of adverse effects on
patient well-being, including delayed recovery and implant evacuation. Biofilm drugs currently
do not completely destroy or prevent microbial colonization, indicating the need for further
research. The final review of drugs for biofilms focuses on components of nanotechnology-based
drug delivery, combination therapy, and coupling repair. Ultrasonic cleaning and hydrogels, as
well as recent improvements in incorporation, have great potential for use in discrete trauma and
medicine applications. This study reviews various literatures on the development of
microorganisms in biofilms and how it affects patient recovery at the hospital.
Patients with biofilms wounds excrete various microbes from their own skin and current
state, and if they receive hospitalization for treatment, they are likely to receive MRE and HAI
from surfaces, patients, staff, and emergency department equipment (Wu et al., 2018). This
literature states that such patients have high levels of biofilm contamination for biofilm reduction
applications in consuming patients include silver and various metals. Other elements indicating
this condition include disinfectants, hydrogels, light and sonic treatments to initiate atomic
sensitization to deliver dynamic oxygen (Wu et al., 2018). Small particles of these contaminants
allow penetration into the dividing layer of cells, glycans, lactobacilli and treatment with phages.
Other scholars such as Muhammad et al. (2020) and Barzegari et al. (2020) assert that the
accumulation of microorganisms can be immobile and live and attached to the surface. The
regimen of this group of people is not the same as that of planktonic development, where
microorganisms are isolated and flexible in environment (Muhammad et al., 2020). Cecillus cells
differ from planktonic cells in their morphology, physiology and qualitative articulation. The
ability to adhere to and thrive on surfaces such as biofilms is a gradual survival process that
3
allows microorganisms to colonize the zone (Muhammad et al., 2020). Microbes are constantly
changing from planktonic aggregates to sedentary ones. This variety of conditions is key for cells
as they allow rapid changes in their natural state.
Wound swelling can be characterized as the ability of microorganisms to thrive when
antimicrobial compounds are present in the climate. The obstructive component is hereditary and
prevents the antitoxin from working for its purpose (Barzegari et al., 2020). This literature
indicates that the term resistance should be used for microbes that may be caused by high-class
antibiotics but whose development is delayed. This element, which explicitly describes the life ...

Canterbury Tales
(c. 12th century)
What do I need to read?
“The Canterbury Tales General Prologue”
“The Miller’s Prologue and Tale”
“The Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale”
“The Pardoner’s Prologue and Tale”
Who is the author?
Geoffrey Chaucer (1343 – 1400). Called the Father of the English Language as well
as the Morning Star of Song, Geoffrey Chaucer, after six centuries, has retained
his status as one of the three or four greatest English poets. He was first to
commit to lines of universal and enduring appeal a vivid interest in nature, books,
and people.
As many-sided as Shakespeare, he did for English narrative what Shakespeare did
for drama. If he lacks the profundity of Shakespeare, he excels in playfulness of
2
mood and simplicity of expression. Though his language often seems quaint, he was
essentially modern. Familiarity with the language and with the literature of his
contemporaries persuades the most skeptical that he is nearer to the present than
many writers born long after he died.
---Courtesy of Compton’s Learning Company
Background Lecture
Chaucer’s father, an influential wine merchant, was able to secure Geoffrey a
position as a page in a household connected to King Edward III. Chaucer’s duties as
a page were humble, but they allowed him the opportunity to view the ruling
aristocracy, thus broadening his knowledge of the various classes of society. While
serving in the English army, Chaucer was captured and held prisoner in France.
After his release, he held a number of government positions.
While in his twenties, Chaucer began writing poetry, and he continued to write
throughout his life. Over the years, his writing showed increasing sophistication
and depth, and it is recognized as presenting penetrating insights into human
character. In The Canterbury Tales, critics say that the author shows an absolute
mastery of the art of storytelling.
The Canterbury Tales are also said to present “a cavalcade of fourteenth-century
English life” because on this pilgrimage to Canterbury the reader gets to meet a
cross-section of the people from Chaucer’s time.
Canterbury, located about fifty miles southeast of London, was a favorite
destination for pilgrims. In fact, Chaucer himself made a pilgrimage there. While
he did not set out on the pilgrimage looking for material to use in his writing, he
was so impressed by the mix of company that he had met at the Tabard Inn that
he was inspired to write what was to become his masterpiece.

a. A number we compare our test statistic to in order to determine significance. In a sampling
distribution or a theoretical distribution approximating the sampling distribution, the critical
value shows us where the tail or tails are. The test statistic must fall in the tail to be significant.
b. Also called the Alpha Level. If the P-value is lower than this number, then the sample data
significantly disagrees with the null hypothesis and is unlikely to have happened by random
chance. This is also the probability of making a type 1 error.

Lessons from the past: How the deadly
second wave of the 1918 ‘Spanish flu’
caught Dallas and the U.S. by surprise
Health concerns about the 2020 coronavirus pandemic are rooted in the
catastrophic second wave of the 1918 pandemic, which hit between
September and November of that year.
By David Tarrant
9:00 AM on Jul 3, 2020

wave-of-the-1918-spanish-flu-caught-dallas-and-the-us-by-surprise/
Illustration by staff artist Michael Hogue.(Michael Hogue / Michael Hogue illustration)
As August gave way to September of 1918, few people were thinking about the
influenza that would soon sweep across Texas and the rest of the country with the speed and
deadly ferocity of a firestorm.
There had been a relatively mild version of the virus in the spring of that year, mostly
affecting troops mobilizing to go off to World War I over in Europe. But by summer the disease
known at the time as the Spanish flu had been largely forgotten.
The front pages of The Dallas Morning News were dominated by news of American troops
pouring into Europe for what would come to be known as World War I.
But that would quickly change. By the end of September, a second wave of the flu, far
deadlier, would sweep across the country, hitting Dallas and other large cities hard.
When health experts worry about the course of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, they
often look back at the second wave of the 1918 pandemic, between September and November,
https://www.dallasnews.com/author/david-tarrant
2
when influenza cases overwhelmed hospitals and medical staffs across the country and the dead
piled up faster than they could be buried.
In Dallas that year, the city’s chief health officer, A.W. Carnes, waved off the fast-
approaching pandemic as not much more than the common cold. In a major blunder, he permitted
a patriotic parade in late September that attracted a cheering crowd of thousands jammed
together downtown.
Cases of influenza promptly spiked.
The second wave would produce most of the deaths of the pandemic, which experts now
estimate at 50 million to 100 million worldwide. In the United States, 675,000 people died from
the virus.
The Dallas Morning News on Sept. 27, 1918, reported the rapid spread of the Spanish flu. Despite the worsening
conditions, Dallas medical officials hesitated to impose restrictions on public gatherings for more than two weeks.
As it did then, the world is struggling with a virus for which there is no vaccine. COVID-19,
the sickness caused by the new coronavirus, has advanced unabated around the world since it first
appeared in China late last year. By the end of June, the number of deaths worldwide exceeded
500,000.
Like the Spanish flu in 1918, the new coronavirus isn’t showing signs of fading away
anytime soon. Texas ended June with alarm lights flashing as new COVID-19 cases set records

I am here to state that this is the overview of Lockheed Martin Corporation and Jack

crisis consulting.
Business profile
In the contemporary world, there are many challenges facing companies in different
industries in both developed countries and undeveloped countries. There is a great need to
understand the potential risks that may face the business to take care of the shareholder interests,
meet the legitimate consistency, and secure the required resources such as human resources
scholarly and reputational resources. Customers are helped with data by the shareholder value-
added. It also helps in another backup and preparation so that people in the organization are
ready to distinguish risk and so that they can quickly react to crisis consulting (Dove et al.,
2018). The SVAs problem consulting can work with customer administration to identify the
potential turmoil that Lockheed martin corporation is likely to face. The understanding of using
fitting systems and methodologies and the advancement of the same make it possible to oversee
and relieve emergencies through computerized systems. It is possible to utilize and outline
recreations by testing setups and arrangements. Through the operational reviews and the
preparation of potential crises in the Lockheed Martin Corporation, one’s status is also protected.
If the problem exceeds, then the SVAs group can react to the expansive scope of the crisis to
develop the best action to solve these crises.
Crisis consulting international has supplied security and crisis administration to different
organizations such as the Christian evangelist. The concern consulting international has been
helping these groups evaluate risk, improve policy creations, site overviews, and arrange training
staff, crisis administration group, meetings management of occasions, among others. Other

activities include risk assessment, prioritization of risks, evaluation, and comprehension of
corporate risk profile. Crisis consulting international uses scientific procedures to prepare
customers in perceiving and measuring risks to understand the effect of these risks so that they
can use the available methodologies to oversee risk and avoid it (Davies, 2019). SVA is used in
the business impact assessment process to break down the business with the end goal in mind.
That builds up top to bottom comprehension of recognizing the primary regions primarily
dependent on the company. This audit aims to establish more extensive deterrent ways of risk

Instructions for Coming of
Age in Mississippi
Due Sunday, April 25th, 2021
Late papers will be penalized. Failure to turn in this assignment will result in
the automatic failure of the class.
Anne Moody’s Coming of Age in Mississippi is an autobiographical presentation of
her life and experiences in the segregationist South during the middle third of the
20th Century. Although Moody was intensively involved in the civil rights
movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s, the real value of her autobiography is that she
describes what it was like to grow up in Mississippi long before she became a civil
rights activist.
Your book essay for Coming of Age in Mississippi should explore and discuss the
following topics and questions:
1. Begin with a brief overview of the book: in general, what is it about, who wrote
it, etc.
2. Moody’s decision to become engaged in the political activism central to the
Civil Rights Movement was a result of her experiences at both work and play
growing up in Mississippi. What kinds of incidents from her life led Moody to
become politically active in the movement? For example, what does she notice
about how she is treated as a black person in Southern white society?
3. Women played an important role in Moody’s life. Using examples from her
autobiography, discuss what Moody learned about race, class and sexual
orientation from the women around her. Who were the most important women in
her life? Discuss each and explain why that person was so important.
4. Moody was a participant and observer of some of the most important historical
events of the 1950’s and 1960’s. How did she view and describe these events – for
example, the murder of Emmitt Till, the sit-in protests, the voter registration drive
in Mississippi, Ku Klux Klan activities and the assassination of Medgar Evars and
2
others? In general, what do her descriptions tell you about the struggle for civil
rights?
5. What did you think of this book? Did you like it/ not like it? Explain why.
Writing Instructions:
1. Use the above questions/topics as your paper outline and answer them in the
order they are presented.
2. Use some common sense in how much you write on each topic. The general
overview of the book, for example, can be covered in one relatively brief
paragraph. Other topics may require more extensive coverage. The main body of
your paper should focus on topics 2-4. You should explore those thoroughly and
back up any general comments with specific details that illustrate and support
them. Topics 1 and 5 should be about a paragraph in length.
3. Although I don’t grade in terms of the length of the paper, under most
circumstances I would expect a paper somewhere within the range of 4-5 pages.
As a general rule, it’s better to write more than less.
4. The paper must be typed using a standard word processing program, double-

Institutional Assessment Report
2012-13
The primary purpose for assessment is the assurance and improvement of student learning and
development; results are intended to inform decisions about course and program content, delivery,
and pedagogy. The Institutional Assessment Report summarizes annual assessment processes,
results and success indicators at the program, co-curricular, core and institutional levels.
I. Program assessment
A total of 117 degree and certificate programs and 13 co-curricular units assessed student learning
in 2012-13. Assessment reports reside in the Assessment Reporting Management System (ARMS).
Most programs measured multiple learning outcomes and used multiple measures. Direct measures
examine or observe student knowledge, skills, attitudes or behaviors. The most frequently used
direct measures in undergraduate programs are written assignments and locally developed exams,
tests or quizzes. Commonly used direct measures in graduate programs include oral presentations
or exhibition, research papers/projects, and locally-developed exams, tests or quizzes (Table 1).

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Bottom 50 of all schools in VirginiaSchool Analysis: Cedar Lee
Middle School has had no growth in population and the teacher
count has remained the same for the past five years. Minority
enrollment is at 43% which consist of Hispanics. The diversity
score of the school is .60%. This affects the classroom in many
areas. Schools should try to be diverse so that students will see
the diversity among staff and administration Some students may
look up to individuals who "look like them". They become roll
models for the students. Many students speak Spanish but there
are only 3 or 4 teachers that speak Spanish. Students come from
different backgrounds, they have different cultures and beliefs
and growing diversity helps everyone in growing to accept and
9. understand others who are different from we may be. By
introducing diversity at a young age, students are more likely to
be great successors after school because they have learned how
to accept others and respect peoples differences. Class
instruction can be affected if you have ELL students who may
not comprehend everything that is being taught because of the
language barrier. The student's parents are not always able to
help because they may only speak Spanish. This will cause the
pace of teaching to be slow and other students will become
bored if the teacher is teaching to slow. Students may be
disruptive or may have unacceptable behaviors because they are
bored in the classroom.

District Statistical Data: The demographic data for Cedar Lee
Middle School is as follows: There are 632 students enrolled at
Cedar Lee Middle School. The racial breakdown is 52.2% white,
30.7% Hispanic, and 9.0% Black and 8.1% other. The
student/teacher ratio is 11:1. The school population is composed
of 45% females and 55% males. Cedar Lee Middle School has
47% of students who are economically disadvantaged. 74% of
Cedar Lee's students scored at or above proficiency in math and
71% scored at or above proficiency in reading.

L.P.District Analysis: Demographics can affect the delivery,
planning and assessment of your unit lesson in different ways.
As teachers, we have to be able to predict how many students
will be enrolled in our schools based on the trend of the
population. Classrooms will be smaller if the population
10. declines and if the population of the community continues to
grow, the schools will become overcrowded and the classrooms
will have more students. When the student/teacher ration
increases, one on one time with students become distinct and
small group lessons become less. Classroom planning may be
affected because if classes are larger and if all students are not
understanding the lesson, it will take longer to teacher the
subject matter and the teacher will be moving at a slower pace.
This will affect your weekly planning and you will not complete
everything you had planned for that particular day or even
week. Everyone doesn't learn at the same pace and this has to be
kept into consideration. In rural areas such as Bealeton,
Virginia many parents commute into the city to find work.
Parents may travel an hour or more to work. This means that
they leave their homes early and children are left at home to get
ready for school on their own. The student may decide to stay
home because their parents are not there to make them go to
school. This will affect the student's assessments because they
have missed vital information on the day that they missed
school. Attendance has to be regular in order for students to
keep up with what is happening in the classroom.

Beneficence and Nonmaleficence
Beauchamp & Childress (2009) cite, “beneficence is a group of
22. norms pertaining to relieving, lessening, or preventing harm and
providing benefits and balancing benefits against risk and cost”
(p.13). Health care organizations often employ risk benefit
analysis data as a means to weigh the risk of harm associated
with creating a new service sector. An example would be a
long-term care organization offering their patients in-house
physical therapy and the benefits of such to both their patients
and the health care organization, with the possible harm
associated with a new service and an increase in malpractice
law suits. It is important to note that decision makers employ a
vast array of analysis centered on both qualitative and
quantitative data before final decisions are made.
Nonmaleficence is a necessary component regarding physical
therapy departments and centers on the caregiver not inflicting
harm (Beauchamp & Childress 2009). A primary example would
be residents receiving physical therapy (PT) after knee or hip
replacement surgery. The physical therapist must be conscious
of the possibility of inflicting harm through over rotation and
weight bearing issues. The question often remains for many
facilities, are the risks and costs of inflicting possible harm
outweighed by the benefits of possible positive health care
outcomes for their residents and the surrounding community.
Long-term care organizations often juggle beneficence and
nonmaleficence issues as they try to provide improved access
and quality health care to their residents.
In-House vs. External Physical Therapy
Over the next twenty years the baby boomers will expect a
greater degree of services and in-house physical therapy
departments will be no exception.
Applying principles of beneficence, the physical therapy
departments are responsible for a vast array of duties regarding
the emotional and physical stability of the residents. These
duties include strategic care plans coordinated with RN’s in
order to reduce the possibility of inflicting harm
(nonmaleficence) and seeing to resident family needs such as
long-term care education, and realistic expectations of care.
23. Physical therapy department’s primary objective is to present to
the resident and their family easy access to quality short and
long-term care physical restoration processes. Yet a consistent
component of care pertaining to nursing homes often centers on
the emotional rehabilitation process that is often needed after
joint replacement surgeries, falls resulting in fractured hips,
legs, and arms. With proper PT (physical therapy), nutrition,
and emotional guidance, the residents are often able to return
home within 30 to 90 days. If long-term care organizations did
not offer in-house physical therapy, many residents such as
individuals on Medicaid would not have the monetary means to
obtain therapy outside of the nursing facility. Therefore, the
administrator and board of directors must weigh the issues of
beneficence and nonmalefience in terms of offering such
services or negating such service in light of possible litigation
issues upon injuries succumb via the in-house PT department.
Regarding this particular case, facilities often employ
cost/benefit analysis in order to determine the appropriate
course of action. Questions remain, centering on beneficence
and nonmalefience, do the costs of possible litigations,
accidentally inflicted harm outweigh the benefits for both the
facility (increasing census based on offering in-house PT) and
the residents who cannot afford to leave the facility and seek
private physical therapy. There must be a way to assign risk
levels to a particular vulnerability that takes multiple factors
into consideration. Gapenski (2006) cites, “the most interesting
part of risk assessment is that each and every circumstance you
encounter will require its own customized criteria to properly
determine a rating” (p.12). The answers seem to fall within
shades of gray, applications of both beneficence and
nonmalefience will undoubtedly influence decision makers as
they struggle with cost-benefit analysis, yet implement moral
applications to balance the avoidance of harm, yet also take
specific actions (physical therapy) that will benefit the
residents/patients..
