Competences, Learning Theories and MOOCs: Recent Developments in Lifelong Learning Karl Steffens Introduction We think of our societies as ‘knowledge societies’ in which lifelong learning is becoming increasingly important. Lifelong learning refers to the idea that people not only learn in schools and universities, but also in non-formal and informal ways during their lifespan.The concepts of lifelong learning and lifelong education began to enter the discourse on educational policies in the late 1960s (Tuijnman & Boström, 2002). However, these are related, but distinct concepts. As Lee (2014, p. 472) notes ‘the terminological change (from lifelong education, continuing education and adult education, to lifelong learning) reflects a conceptual departure from the idea of organised educational provision to that of a more individualised pursuit of learning’. One of the first important documents on lifelong learning was the report of the International Commission on the Development of Education to UNESCO in 1972, titled ‘Learning to be. The world of education today and tomorrow’. In his introductory letter to the Director-General of UNESCO, the chairman of the Commission, Edgar Faure, stated that the work of the Commission was based on four assumptions (see Elfert pp. and Carneiro pp. in this issue). The first was related to the idea that there was an international community which was united by common aspirations and the second was the belief in democracy and in education as its keystones. The third was ‘that the aim of development is the complete fulfilment of man, in all the richness of his personality, the complexity of his forms of expression and his various commitments — as individual, member of a family and of a community, citizen and producer, inventor of techniques and creative dreamer’. The last assumption was that ‘only an over-all, lifelong education can produce the kind of complete man, the need for whom is increasing with the continually more stringent constraints tearing the individual asunder’ (Faure, 1972, p. vi). Following the Faure Report, the UNESCO Institute for Education, which was founded in Germany in 1951, started to focus on lifelong learning and subsequently became the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL, http:// uil.unesco.org/home/). It was under its leadership that a formal model of lifelong education was developed and published in the book ‘Towards a System of Life- long Education’ (Cropley, 1980). The concept of lifelong learning also became manifest in the ‘Education for All’ (EFA) agenda that was launched at the World Conference on Education for All which took place in Jomtien (Thailand) in 1990 (Inter-Agency Commission, 1990). Ten years later, at the World Education Forum in Dakar (Senegal) in 2000, the Dakar Framework for Action was designed ‘to enable all individuals to realize their right to learn and to fulfil their responsibility to contribute to the development of their society’ (UNESCO, 2000, p..

Compensation, Benefits, Reward & Recognition Plan for V.P. Operations Learning Team B HRM 595 December 19, 2017 Rosalie M. Lopez Running head: COMPENSATION, BENEFITS, REWARD & RECOGNITION PLAN 1 COMPENSATION, BENEFITS, REWARD & RECOGNITION PLAN 2 Compensation, Benefits, Reward & Recognition Plan for V.P. Operations Introduction Base Salary Range For the position of VP of Operations, the National Average Salary is $122,624. In San Francisco, the average is higher and placed at $155,946. This amount is 16% higher than the National Average (Payscale, 2016). The reason for this increase is because of experience and geography. These are the two prime factors that impact the pay scale. Another major factor is the employer. Most employers base their decision to hire an individual on the experience they bring with them. Of course, with more experience, higher pay is required. With our company cutting cost a less experienced individual would be the best fit for the position. Standard Employee Benefit In many cases, your employee benefits could be the turning point for a prospective employee. This benefit is a vital portion of any employee packet. These valuable benefits are used as a blanket of security in the case of any sickness, injury, unemployment, old age, or death (Gomez-Mejia, Balkin & Cardy, 2015, p. 362). There is a significant difference between incentives and benefits: benefits are financial and nonfinancial compensations that are indirect to the employee. To have a competitive strategy Blossoms Up! must align their profits with the compensation package that has been already put in place. This action will help provide flexibility to the amount and the benefits available (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). There are also some benefits that most companies are legally obligated to provide. Three benefits are required regardless of the number of employees that the company has. These interests involve social security, workers compensation, and unemployment insurance (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Other laws must be adhered to when dealing with a certain number of individuals. When a company has 50 or more employee they must have the Family and Medical Leave Act in place and since its induction in 2015 the Affordable Care Act for Health Insurance for companies with 20 or more employees. For the health insurance to be considered standard medical, vision and dental plans must be made available to the business. These programs that must be regarded as being under the Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). There are some voluntary benefits that we can include. We are already looking into adding a pension package using the Defined Contribution Plan as well as the 401(K) plan (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Life insurance is another excellent benefit that could be added to the package as well as short-term and long-term disability insurance. Adding Vacation and PTO, and Holiday pay is .

Comparisons of artworks are important in Art History. They allow us to draw distinctions between cultures and eras and also to understand the movements of people and see the influences that carried on in their art works. When comparing two works it is important that they are similar in material and or function. For example, comparing two pieces of ceramics or two buildings would be possible while comparing a piece of ceramics with a building would not. .

Comparison of the artists’ works. The art works by Sarah and Moran have much similarity compered to their differences. This can be attributed to the fact that they are art work produced during the same period of time and thus resulting to the similarities. One of the similarity existing between the two art works as evident from the picture above is the fact that there is a thin line between abstract and real representation. Their works does not look as if they are representing something from the real world. However, when they give an explanation about them it is evident that they are representing something in the real life. The representations are composed of high imagination thus making it to appear as abstract. Another similarity existing on their painting is the fact that they use simple things to represent the real world. for instance, Sarah uses the arrangement of various things to depict the real world and Moran uses liquid and paint stick to represent the real world. Sports: Team sports vs individual sports Sports refer to any form of physical activity that involves the whole body and the mind. Sporting can be a way of getting entertainment and also competing. There are two main forms of sports, the individual sports and team sports. Team sports refers to a sporting activity in which more than two people are working together to achieve a common objective. On the other hand individual sport refers to a form of sporting in which a person competes as an individual against others in a competition. I prefer individual sports because to me it has minimal pressure from colleagues (team members), compared to the team sports. Any sporting activity that contains more than one individual one side is considered as a team. It should not necessarily be composed of a big population of people. Some of the common team sports include football, rugby, rugby, basketball and netball. On the other hand individual sports consist of only one play that plays against each other at the same time. Some of the common individual sports in the world include, cycling, table tennis and some kind of shooting. In team sporting, the goal of the team is the one that keeps the players together. I prefer individual sporting; this is from the fact that with this kind of sporting there is minimal pressure form colleagues as it is in the team sporting. Furthermore my perfectionism nature makes it hard for me to be part of a team sports. Another reason as to why I prefer this form .
