Before 1918, approximately 60% of the wolves in the New Mexico and Arizona region were male, and 40% were female. However, cattle ranchers in this area have made a determined effort to exterminate wolves. From 1918 to the present, approximately 70% of wolves in the region are male, and 30% are female. Biologists suspect that male wolves are more likely than females to return to an area where the population has been greatly reduced. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) What is the probability that 8 or more were female? .

Becoming a Manager Elaine has worked in the IMCU of a community hospital for 11 years. She is one of the best nurses, and serves as a preceptor and a resource for other nurses on the unit. Elaine has made numerous contributions to the unit. She has presented training classes, in-services, and booklets. Elaine has been the day shift charge nurse for 5 years. In January, the unit manager decided to retire. The IMCU manager position was posted. A very unpopular nurse from another unit bid on the position, as well as a nurse from another hospital. The staff has approached Elaine, imploring her to bid for the job. They tell her she will be a terrific manager, and they all love her. Elaine is very happy with her job, but she knows that things will change with a new manager. After serious deliberation, Elaine bids on the position. Her qualifications are undisputable, and she is offered the position. She is warned, however, that her relationship with her co-workers will not be the same. She has long been a leader, but she must now see herself as a manager. Try to imagine that you are Elaine: What steps will you take to initiate this change? How will you establish your new position with the staff? What type of management/leadership style would you employ? How do the “Cores of Credibility” apply to your new role? Your response should consist of complete sentences and should be at least one complete paragraph, but it should be no more than three paragraphs in length. Post your individual responses by the end of the day on Friday of Module 2. Read the postings of other students, and thoughtfully respond to at least two other student postings by end of the day on Sunday of Module 2.

A CONTROVERSY ERUPTS In May 2001, a class action lawsuit 1 was filed against the world‘s largest fast-food chain McDonald‘s, in Seattle, US. The lawsuit alleged that the company had, for over a decade, duped vegetarian customers into eating French fries 2 that contained beef extracts. The lawsuit followed a spate of media reports detailing how the French fries served at McDonald‘s were falsely promoted as being ‗100% vegetarian.‘ Although McDonald‘s initially declined to comment on the issue, the company issued a ‗conditional apology,‘ admitting to using beef flavoring in the fries. The furore over the matter seemed to be settling down, when to McDonald‘s horror, some of its restaurants in India were vandalized. Activists of Hindu fundamentalist groups – the Shiv Sena, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and the Bajrang Dal, staged a demonstration in front of the McDonald‘s head office in Delhi protesting the alleged use of beef flavouring. They submitted a memorandum to the Prime Minister, demanding the closure of all McDonald‘s outlets in the country. Activists also staged protests in front of McDonald‘s restaurants in south Mumbai and Thane. Mobs ransacked the outlet at Thane, broke the glass panes and smeared the McDonald‘s mascot Ronald with cow dung. About 30 people were arrested and later let off on bail. Company officials estimated the loss to the outlet at Rs 2 million. Officials at McDonald‘s India quickly announced that the vegetarian products served in India did not have any non-vegetarian content (Refer Exhibit I for details). However, despite this reassurance, the anti-McDonald‘s wave refused to die down. Meanwhile, more cases were being filed against McDonald‘s – t.

Because of the difficulties that expatriates face, some firms have b.docx

garnerangelika

Because of the difficulties that expatriates face, some firms have begun a policy of “inpatriation” (a concept discussed further in the Debate section of chapter 13), whereby they relocate foreigners to the host country, with the expectation that after a period of time, they will replace expatriates. While this provides the MNE with a source of workers who do not face cultural obstacles, some significant problems remain. First, inpatriates, who are paid the going rate in the MNE’s home country, are often disappointed or upset when they go to the host country, where salaries are much lower. Second, many inpatriates are ineffective because of their ambiguous position. While the headquarters views inpatriates as “us” because of their time in the home country, other HCNs also view them as “us” because of their common ethnicity. 1.Given the pros and cons of expatriation and inpatriation, which do you feel is more effective for MNEs? Would certain situation call for one strategy over another? What could an MNE do to alleviate some of the difficulties of inpatriation? 2. MNEs operate in multiple locations, negotiating through a complicated web of formal and informal institutions that are different from country to country. An MNE is successful, in part, because of its ability to work within a complex network of laws and values to create a global, cross-cultural entity. The question is could labor unions do the same? While union presence is strong in some countries, it is nearly absent in others, so that workers in those countries have relative little protection from potentially unfair actions. What is the feasibility of establishing a global (or semiglobal) labor union to cover these countries? How would they overcome institutional obstacles presented by governments and by MNEs? What would be the pros and cons of such a movement? .

Because Eileen Dover, the CEO of Good For You! Bakery, began her business with limited background in data architecture, some historical data that was saved in legacy systems is in bad shape. For example, sales date information was entered haphazardly, in different formats; sometimes sales amounts included a dollar sign and cents to the right of the decimal, and sometimes they didn’t; and the alphanumeric code she initially used to designate products is confusing to her new managers. Ms. Dover wants to ensure that she can move data from her legacy system to SAS®. She had one of her new IT people produce a pipe-delimited data file in .txt format. He was not able to do much data validation/cleaning on his end, and Ms. Dover wants to know if this crucial step can be completed in SAS®. She wants you to do the following: Import the legacy data file ( Week 4 Assignment Data ) into SAS®. (Note that if you look at the .txt file using a text editing program such as Notepad, you can see anomalies in the data; for example, dates and dollar amounts are represented in different formats.) Create a report that: Lists sales, by month, with subtotals and a grand total Interprets all dates correctly and displays them in the same format Interprets all dollar values correctly and displays them in the format $99 Add comments to the SAS® code to explain what each section of the code does, so that your team can apply similar to logic to cleaning/validating other data files.

Beauty, Effort, and Misrepresentation HowBeauty Work Affect.docx

Beauty, Effort, and Misrepresentation: How Beauty Work Affects Judgments of Moral Character and Consumer Preferences ADRIANA SAMPER LINYUN W. YANG MICHELLE E. DANIELS Women engage in a variety of beauty practices, or “beauty work,” to enhance their physical appearance, such as applying cosmetics, tanning, or exercising. Although the rewards of physical attractiveness are well documented, perceptions of both the women who engage in efforts to enhance their appearance and the high-effort beauty products marketed to them are not well understood. Across seven studies, we demonstrate that consumers judge women who engage in certain types of extensive beauty work as possessing poorer moral character. These judgments occur only for effortful beauty work perceived as transformative (significantly altering appearance) and transient (lasting a relatively short time), such that they emerge within cosmetics and tanning, yet not skincare or exercise. This effect is mediated by the perception that putting high effort into one’s appearance signals a willingness to misrepresent one’s true self, and translates into lower purchase intentions for higher-effort cosmetics. We identify several boundary conditions, including the attractiveness of the woman performing the beauty work and whether the effort is at- tributed to external norms or causes. In examining how beauty work elicits moral judgments, we also shed light on why effortful cosmetic use is viewed negatively, yet effortful products continue to be commercially successful. Keywords: aesthetics, beauty, beauty work, effort, cosmetics, moral judgments, true self, innate self T hroughout history, women have gone to great lengthsto enhance their physical appearance. Queen Elizabeth I inspired a generation of women to coat theirfaces with lead to achieve the perfect pale complexion, and Victorian ladies removed their ribs to whittle down their waists (Corson 1972/2003). While modern beauty rituals may be less extreme, we continue to see consumers engage in extensive “beauty work,” defined as the beauty practices people perform on themselves to elicit certain benefits within a social hierarchy (Kwan and Trautner 2009). These practices are often effortful, such as popular multistep Korean skincare regimens (Chang 2011) or trends in con- touring and strobing, where layers of make-up are carefully applied to highlight facial features (Cardellino 2015). Even mundane routines such as styling hair or applying cosmetics often require significant time and care. Interestingly, while research acknowledges that physical attractiveness can be enhanced through beauty work (Etcoff et al. 2011; Kwan and Trautner 2009), it has not examined how the Adriana Samper ([email protected]) is assistant professor of marketing at the W.

Beau Nelson posted Apr 6, 2020 10:10 AM 1. What position/positions in your organization are accountable for workplace relations in your organization? What impact do they have? What programs are in place to impact relations at work? Provide specific examples. My organization is unique. As a member of the IG, I am tasked with inspecting other organizations for compliance, readiness, resource management, and training. Most military organizations have a commander who is responsible for workplace relations in the organizations. The commander ‘s responsibilities include executing the mission, leading people, managing resources, and improving the unit (Air Force Instruction 1-2, 2014). The commander is responsible for the organization but is not alone. The First Sergeant is responsible for ensuring the force understands the commander’s goals, objectives, and policies. The first Sergeant must communicate with other leaders in the unit and be familiar with personnel programs, professional military education, financial needs, family matters to include housing (Air Force Instruction 36-2113, 2014). There are many other personnel responsible for workplace relations in the organization. Supervisors at all levels, Equal Opportunity, the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response office, the Inspector General, and the legal office. All these key organizations play a role in the organizations under their span of control. 2. If you were an HR manager in a private-sector organization, what key programs would you implement to improve employee-employer relations? Why? The first program I would implement is streamlined communication. If assigned to a large organization I would look at developing a smart phone application to help with the follow of communication. Employees want to know where they fit in the organization and what they are working toward (Smith, 2017). Another program I would ensure was developed was a recognition program. Gallup recently completed a survey showing fifty-three percent of employees are not engaged, another survey showed workers who give their management a lower rating is more likely to apply or interview for other positions (Duran, 2020). Finally, a program I believe is essential today is a career development program. In a survey in 2018, forty-two percent of millennials said their current employer provide learning, development, and training opportunities (Witkin, 2018). Eighty six percent of millennials say they would stay at their current job if the company offered development training opportunities (Duran, 2020). 3. How would you determine the added value of your programs? As with most programs a Return on Investment (ROI) Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) should be performed. A BCR greater than one shows the program has worth and is not losing the organization money (Kaminski, & Lopes, 2009). ROI was deemed impossible to calculate for human resources, but that is no longer the case (SHRM, 2016). R.

NO OUTSIDE SOURCES may be used for this and other discussion posts. 1) Pound’s definition of the image was “that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in an instant of time." How does "In a Station at the Metro" fall in line with this definition? What is the intellectual and emotional complex being presented here? 2) If Imagist poetry deals with fleeting associations, what role is Helen as a figure playing in this poem? What revisions are being made to the myth in terms of how Helen is represented? 3) William Carlos Williams is famous for turning ordinary objects into poetic subjects with meaning. How does he accomplish this in “The Red Wheelbarrow”? What overall tone or feeling are you left with at the end of this? How does “The Red Wheelbarrow” work within the scope of Imagism? .

Continuous Variable The continuous variable I selected is “Problems w/Public Health Clinics”. The means for this data is 7.43, the median is 7.4335 and the mode is 0. For the variable, the mean is the best measure it incorporates every value of this variable making it more representative of the variable (Frankfort-Nachmias, Leon-Guerrero, & Davis, 2020). The standard deviation is 5.11961, this number represents the difference of the data points from the mean. This number means that the scores regarding problems with health clinics differed from the mean by 5.11961. The variance is 26.210 describes the degree to which the data points are spread. I would describe this variable as having a lot of variability and extreme. Those that had no problems with public clinics more than double the amount of those that had a median amount of problems and triple those that had lots of problems. Categorical Variable Categorical variables are nominal or ordinal and cannot be described with mean or median. The best central tendency for these variables are mode, which is the score that shows up most frequently (Frankfort-Nachmias, Leon-Guerrero, & Davis, 2020). The categorical variable I selected is “country’s present economic condition compared to 12 months ago”, is mode is a tie for same and better all with the frequency of 2872 and a percent of 27.8%. This variable has low variability. Most of the participants believe there has been a small change or no change in economic conditions over the past 12 months.

Be sure to mark your calendars with your day. Points: Outline: 20 points Leading Prayer: 10 points Overview Theme: In keeping with the topic of the class this semester and the year’s theme of love your neighbor, the theme of the prayer assignment this semester calls you to explore a world religion. Part of exploring world religions and loving your neighbor includes broadening your knowledge of spirituality, both of religious and humanist traditions. For your prayer/reflection assignment, you may choose from a world religion or a humanist tradition. For example, if the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS) has interest to you, your prayer plan may include a traditional LDS prayer. If you are an atheist, then you may wish to research humanist traditions or share a piece of literature, music, or art that expresses your spirituality or foundational belief. Format: Similar to your freshman and sophomore year, your prayer outline is to be formatted as follows. (A sample prayer follows these instructions.) 1. Upper right corner of page one (1): Name, Block, Teacher’s name, Date of Prayer 2. Broken into the following sections: Opening; Brief explanation of the religion, group, or your world view; Prayer or Text; Reflection; Intentions; Closing. 3. Bold and underlined section headings. Section Details: Opening Explain how you will open the prayer or reflection time. For example, will you ring the prayer bowl, invite everyone to do the sign of the cross, or invite them to a moment of silence? Summary In one or two paragraphs summarize the religion, group, or what has contributed to your world view. Either during or after your summary, be sure to cite the two resources you consulted or that have contributed to your world view. Your summary or your personal story will include a visual or audio resource, such as a video clip, drawing, photograph, or song. You need only have one visual or audio resource during your prayer/reflection presentation, so decide if it will be in the summary or the reflection/prayer. Prayer/Reflection This can be a prayer from the religion, a text from the group, or text that has meaning for you. (A text can be a piece of art, video, song, piece of poetry or literature, or personal writing). Your summary or your prayer will include a visual or audio resource, such as a video clip, drawing, photograph, or song. You need only have one visual or audio resource, choose if it will be in the summary or the prayer. Intentions Two intentions related to events occurring in the world that are in need of social justice (loving your neighbor). These events do not need to be related to your person or topic. With prior notification, these events may be changed due to current events at the time you lead prayer/reflection. Intentions may be followed with “We pray to the Lord,” or a moment of silence. If you have an idea for another way to close them, please share it with the teacher. Please note: .

Baylee,In Robert Frosts poem, Acquainted with the Night he us.docx

garnerangelika

Baylee, In Robert Frost's poem, "Acquainted with the Night" he uses symbolism to compare darkness with depression. "I have been one acquainted with the night," (711) is the first line. It sets the tone of the story, along with the setting. He uses darkness as a symbolism for depression and sadness. "I have outwalked the furthest city light," (711) symbolizes him outwalking the last bit of light in his life. He is walking into the darkness of depression and walking out of the last bit of light that's left. There is no light left in his life, at least the aspect of a community type scene. He often uses the word aquatinted. This can also be interpreted as symbolism because the definition of an acquaintance is someone who you are briefly and merely accustomed to, who we wouldn't quite call a friend. The darkness is his acquaintance, he is not friendly and open to this darkness because the darkness is his depressive state. "Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right, I have been one acquainted with the night," (711) is a powerful line. It ties all the symbolism together. Frost is telling us that the timing is never right for depression. It comes at its own pace and at it's own time. Symbolism is a powerful element in literature and makes the reader think deeper about the true meaning of the poem. Robert Frost uses the darkness as a symbol for depression in his poem, "Acquainted with the Night". .

Baylee,In Katherine Mansfields story Miss Brill, the author u.docx

Baylee, In Katherine Mansfield's story "Miss Brill", the author uses the theme of loneliness to exemplify the pain loneliness comes with. She uses a public scenery in the park to lead the protagonist, Miss Brim, to realize what her loneliness has caused her to do. She felt embarrassed for going to the park everyday to watch the other people. The tone comes across as very sad and lonely, and it gives us an inside look on the life of a lonely elderly old woman. The story in itself is sad. Nothing about an old woman who is so lonely watching other people for entertainment is happy whatsoever. However, Brim uses the characterization and description of events to show us the pain and despair of how having seemingly no-one can affect a person. The line, "What has been happening to me? said her little sad eyes," (259) shows us that you can even see the effects of her loneliness even physically. She has noticed what she has been doing and it lead her to see herself in a different way, as well as the people around her. Courtney, In Raymond Carver's short story "Popular Mechanics", he introduces a sense of separation between a mother and her spouse which reflects in the authors use of tone in this story. The tone in the beginning starts off a little bit on edge as she goes through frustration, which is later developed to an disagreement. The situation becomes more hostile towards the middle of the story. The narrator mentioned " Son of a bitch! I'm so glad you're leaving! She began to cry. You can't even look me in the face, can you" (277)? This moment basically describes a moment of sadness for this women as she goes through a moment of separation from her significant other. In her sense, this could also be a use of diction because she tells him to leave but cries afterwards as if she doesn't really mean for him to leave, she is just upset. The tone the narrator uses in this story is major hostile disagreements between our characters. Later the narrator developed a statement, "I want the baby, he said. Are you crazy? No, but I want the baby. I'll get someone to come by for his things" (277). This statement proves that our characters continues to disagree with each other as they begin to debate on who will get custody for their child. As they debate and tried to resolve a solution, this will later be in effect of the resolution of the story. .

Battle Royal Ralph Ellison It goes a long way back, some .docx

Battle Royal Ralph Ellison It goes a long way back, some twenty years. All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naive. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: That I am nobody but myself. But first I had to discover that I am an invisible man! And yet I am no freak of nature, nor of history. I was in the cards, other things having been equal (or unequal) eighty-five years ago. I am not ashamed of my grandparents for having been slaves. I am only ashamed of myself for having at one time been ashamed. About eighty-five years ago they were told they were free, united with others of our country in everything pertaining to the common good, and, in everything social, separate like the fingers of the hand. And they believed it. They exulted in it. They stayed in their place, worked hard, and brought up my father to do the same. But my grandfather is the one. He was an odd old guy, my grandfather, and I am told I take after him. It was he who caused the trouble. On his deathbed he called my father to him and said, "Son, after I'm gone I want you to keep up the good fight. I never told you, but our life is a war and I have been a traitor all my born days, a spy in the enemy's country ever since I give up my gun back in the Reconstruction. Live with your head in the lion's mouth. I want you to overcome 'em with yeses, undermine 'em with grins, agree 'em to death and destruction, let 'em swoller you till they vomit or bust wide open." They thought the old man had gone out of his mind. He had been the meekest of men. The younger children were rushed from the room, the shades drawn and the flame of the lamp turned so low that it sputtered on the wick like the old man's breathing. "Learn it to the younguns," he whispered fiercely; then he died. But my folks were more alarmed over his last words than over his dying. It was as though he had not died at all, his words caused so much anxiety. I was warned emphatically to forget what he had said and, indeed, this is the first time it has been mentioned outside the family circle. It had a tremendous effect upon me, however. I could never be sure of what he meant. Grandfather had been a quiet old man who never made any trouble, yet on his deathbed he had called himself a traitor and a spy, and he had spoken of his meekness as a dangerous activity. It became a constant puzzle which lay unanswered in the back of my mind. And whenever things went well for me I remembered my grandfather and felt guilty and uncomfortable. It was as though I was carrying out his advice in spite of myself. And to make it worse, everyone loved me for it. I was.

Battles, Betrayals, and Brotherhood Early Chinese Plays on the Th ree Kingdoms Edited and Translated, with an Introduction, by WILT L. IDEMA and STEPHEN H. WEST Hackett Publishing Company, Inc.

Please do not share this PDF or a printout of it with anyone else. 197 5 Zhuge Liang Burns the Stores at Bowang Anonymous Zhuge Liang Burns the Stores at Bowang (Zhuge Liang Bowang shaotun) fi rst appears—as an anonymous play—in the zaju catalogues of the early fi fteenth century: Zhu Quan’s Formulary of Correct Sounds for an Era of Great Harmony (Taihe zhengyin pu) and Jia Zhongming’s Continuation of the Register of Ghosts (Lugui bu xubian), a fact that suggests that the play was written during the second half of the fourteenth century. Th e play has been preserved both as one of the Th irty Yuan Plays (translated here) and as a late sixteenth-century manu- script that derives from the Ming palace repertoire. A translation of the fourth act of the Ming palace version is included here to allow a more detailed comparison of the two versions. Th e play details how Liu Bei persuades Zhuge Liang to join his cause in the role of primary adviser and how Zhuge Liang then handles relations with Liu Bei’s sworn brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Whereas Guan Yu is willing to accept the presence of Zhuge Liang for the benefi t he can bring to their military success, the impetuous Zhang Fei is much less happy with Zhuge Liang’s presence and his approach to warfare. Th e play concludes with Zhang Fei sub- mitting to the superiority of Zhuge Liang’s wisdom over his own brute vio- lence. In the various renditions of stories of the Th ree Kingdoms, at this point in the stories’ development the relationship of the three sworn brothers with Cao Cao, with whom they had collaborated in the past while fi ghting Dong Zhuo and others, has defi nitely soured. Leaving Northern China, the three brothers move south into Hubei, where Liu Bei holds the offi ce of Prefect of Xinye. Looking for a means to strengthen his power, Liu Bei, who earlier had made Xu Shu his Field Marshal, tries to attract Zhuge Liang to his cause on the basis of Xu Shu’s high recommendation. Before the play begins, Liu Bei and his brothers have already twice visited Recumbent Dragon Ridge to meet with Zhuge Liang, but in both cases Zhuge Liang has refused to see them. Th e fi rst act of this play is devoted to Liu Bei’s third and successful visit. Knowing that Liu Bei is destined to become emperor of the Shu-Han dynasty for only three years, Zhuge Liang makes his decision to join Liu Bei after he has recog- nized, through the physiognomy of Liu Bei’s infant son, that the boy will reign Idema and West_Battles.indd 197Idema and West_Battles.indd 197.

Basing on the present scenario, the tasks will be delegated by the members of the hospital administration that involves the director, the chief medical officer and the two assistants in the above top administrative positions (Sasser.et.al.2009). For the sake of identity, these top leaders in the administration shall be labeled with their first and last names as they are delegated duties. In regard to their duties and responsibilities, the director will be in charge of supervising and checking the availability of resources basic needs like the food, water and shelter together with the health facilities to facilitate the first aid. The chief medical officer will be in charge of supervising all the processes that will facilitate the efficient operation of the first aid as well as the emergence response decisions. Wanda will be charged with the responsibility of helping the injured people with the medication that can ease the pain as well as other types of medication that can easily the control of the disinfections in case there is an excessive blood loss. Further recruitment in the team is Geri that serves to help the orderly in the arrangement of the required items in the health unit as well as moving the dead. The choice of these people to take care of the plan was based on their individual brilliance in terms of the skills and the attributes(Rathore.et.al.2012). Wanda & Geri are chosen have a medical background that enables them have a deep understanding of the medical needs of the patients. Another reason that will guide the selection is that they must have a good experience in the administrative skills. The dedication towards their work also matters during the selection process. This fact will help to provide the sense of responsibility for the job. The spot administrative decisions will all be handled by the director apart from offering the meaningful assistance to the medical officer in the handling some of the matters that may sound critical and call for further intervention from the higher office which is the office the director. As a matter of fact, we shall have the medical officer taking care of the major injuries as a way of helping the orderly dispense his duties more effectively and evenly (Koenig & Schultz 2010). We shall have the orderly obtaining the medical supplies for his duties in the health clinic under the help of the chief medical officer. Wanda & Geri together with the orderly will work jointly to ensure there is provision of the basic necessities like the food, water and medicine to the injured persons and also facilitating the availability of shelter for the injured as part of the basic needs. Since there is need for the authoritative representation, the National Disaster Management Authority has been working to govern the disasters in the region under the guidance of the central government (Wallace & De Balogh 1985). This body works to ensure there is a controlled emergence response to the occurrence of the di.

Sandy Millin

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024 Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error. Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials. This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
