Technology is an ever-growing system that provides advantages and in.pdf
Technology is an ever-growing system that provides advantages and introduces disadvantages
into organizations. Identify an organization that has introduced new or improved technologies to
enhance its information systems. Discuss the technologies that were selected to enhance the
company\'s competitive advantage. Explore some advantages and related disadvantages
introduced through this technology integration.
Answer needs to be 200 - 300 words.
Solution
Health care organizations have had to adapt to many changes in the world around them, from
advances in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures to the emergence of administrative
innovations such as managed care and the invention of new information technologies. The
Internet represents a particularly profound change that will enable or force significant changes in
organizational form and processes—a transformation as profound as any that have gone before.
The Internet\'s capability to empower consumers, support dynamic information exchanges
among organizations, and \"flatten\" organizational hierarchies promises to result in new
operational strategies, business models, service delivery modes, and management mechanisms.
The changes will have such far-reaching implications that health care organizations need to start
preparing now to adopt the advanced Internet applications that are expected to appear in the near
future. Organizations need to evaluate the potential and implications of new Internet
technologies, adapt them to local needs and conditions, minimize the risks associated with new
product and service deployment, and plan to demonstrate the value of their efforts.
This chapter examines challenges to the adoption of Internet-based technologies by health care
organizations. It attempts to identity fundamental impediments to greater use of the Internet that
may be expected to persist for some time. The first section of the chapter provides a context for
the analysis by reviewing the experiences of other industries that have achieved some success in
changing business practices by adopting Internet technologies. The second section discusses in
general terms why more health care organizations should be interested in adopting the Internet:
because it can advance their strategic interests. The third section deals with organizational
barriers that hinder Internet use. The discussion there addresses internal and external factors,
such as policy and technical barriers, that influence and constrain the form and extent of Internet
use, as well as the range of uncertainties that inhibit decision making regarding the Internet. The
last section addresses the importance of organizational leadership..

Understanding health care information systems planning and implementation is an important skill for health care leaders. Technology is advancing and the adoption of information systems in health care has progressed from being just a cool tool to a must have in terms of quality, access, profitability, and competitiveness.
It is inevitable that managers and/or leaders will be faced with technology changes and/or upgrades, making the need to understand the basics of health care information system development and the standards required fundamental. Many organizations are opting out of acquiring a new health information system due to the high cost. Meanwhile, other health care organizations face resistance from their employees and other stakeholders when there is new system implementation.
Evaluate at least three of the barriers faced by health care leaders in adopting health information systems and identify how they can be prevented.
Propose a solution that could be used to eliminate or reduce a cultural and/or behavioral resistance to health information system adoption.
Evaluate the processes that are involved in a systems development lifecycle (SDLC) and how the processes relate to each other.

Current Information and Communication Technologies
With so much attention focused on health care reform, it is important that nurses be given the opportunity to use high-quality technology tools. These tools can increase access to vital medical information, promote effective communication among health care professionals, and improve the patient experience. By actively seeking out and adopting these tools, nurses can greatly enhance the quality and safety of care that they provide.
This Discussion focuses on identifying quality technology tools that increase the ability of nurses to provide safe, effective care.
To prepare
:
· Review the various technology tools.
· Identify a recently adopted information, education, or communication technology tool in your specialty area. Reflect on how it is used and how its use impacts the quality of care.
· Consider how your identified technology tool might impact nursing practice if it were more widely used. What are some barriers preventing increased usage? How could wider implementation be facilitated?
Question:
Post
a description of a current or new information, education, or communication technology tool that is being used in your specialty area and assess its impact on the quality of care. Highlight the effect that increased use of this technology would have on nursing practice and discuss the barriers that are slowing or hindering its adoption. Summarize how adoption of the technology tool could be facilitated.

A Nurse’s Role in the Systems Development Life CycleWhile the proc.docx
A Nurse’s Role in the Systems Development Life Cycle
While the process of developing and implementing a health information technology system may seem overwhelming at first, the systems development life cycle (SDLC) provides organizations with a framework to deliver efficient and effective information systems. Though the SDLC is a common overarching structure for implementing information systems, it is not a one-size-fits-all process. In fact, there are a multitude of approaches that can be used to guide the systems development life cycle. The SDLC approach that is most appropriate for a particular organization will be highly contextual and subject to organization-specific differences.
This week prompts you to analyze the process of selecting an appropriate health information technology and then evaluate techniques that positively impact the steps of the systems development life cycle in an EHR implementation. You also determine what barriers might occur at each stage and how these could be overcome.

An important function of marketing is to drive growth in sales and revenue for a company. Marketing is especially adept at doing so for a new product with many competitive advantages and much potential. Chapter 2 introduced how companies can grow through expansion with new products and new markets, the detailed
focus of Chapters 8 and 15. Along those lines, Phil and Milton Kotler stress the following strategies.

Growing the Core
Make the core of the brand as distinctive as possible
Drive distribution through both existing and new channels
Offer the core product in new formats or versions
Although many different growth strategies are available to firms, some of the best opportunities come from growing the core—focusing on their most successful existing products and markets. UK marketing guru David Taylor advocates three main strategies, citing these examples:
1. Make the core of the brand as distinctive as possible. Galaxy chocolate has successfully competed with Cadbury by positioning itself as “your partner in chocolate indulgence” and featuring smoother product shapes, more refined taste, and sleeker packaging.
2. Drive distribution through both existing and new channels. Costa Coffee, the number-one coffee shop in the United Kingdom, has found new distribution routes using drive-thro.

BUSI 330
Collaborative Marketing Plan Final Draft Instructions
Include the following in your Group Discussion Board Forum:
1. A report with the final Marketing Plan that includes the three previous drafts, attached as an MS Word file. In addition, this final MP must include the following sections:
· Marketing Programs & Financial Projections.
You should review pp. 54–55 of the text for examples of the key issues that should be discussed within these sections of the MP. You will need a comprehensive marketing program, which includes a discussion of: the Product Strategy, the Pricing Strategy, the Promotion Strategy and the Distribution (channels) Strategy.
The last section on Financial Projections should show a 5-year projection of expected revenues. In addition, you should present some type of idea when BE (break-even) will take place. Companies that introduce new products generally do not make a profit in “year 1” because of the high development and marketing costs required to test and launch the product. Obtaining costs will be difficult, but you should try to estimate costs.
· Executive Summary (ES)
Finally, once the MP is written, you will need to write the Executive Summary. The ES is written last but is placed right after the Table of Contents. You will want the reader to see the ES first. if they like it, they may read on. If it does not excite the reader, the MP will likely be discounted. The ES should contain only the most important findings, conclusions, and recommendations contained within your plan.
· The Table of Contents
The Table of Contents contains a list of the major sections of your marketing plan with the names of the group members that participated in the actual writing of each section. This will allow the instructor to evaluate each member’s contribution to the overall group project.
· Appendices
The only Appendix required is a reference list. Keep in mind that data and key information may need citations, but will surely require a reference list. A plan with no references will be considered marginal since information sources add considerable credibility to the ideas in your plan.
Your Collaborative Marketing Plan Final Draft must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday of Module/Week 8.

Details:
Understanding health care information systems planning and implementation is an important skill for health care leaders. Technology is advancing and the adoption of information systems in health care has progressed from being just a cool tool to a must have in terms of quality, access, profitability, and competitiveness.
It is inevitable that managers and/or leaders will be faced with technology changes and/or upgrades, making the need to understand the basics of health care information system development and the standards required fundamental. Many organizations are opting out of acquiring a new health information system due to the high cost. Meanwhile, other health care organizations face resistance from their employees and other stakeholders when there is new system implementation.
Evaluate at least three of the barriers faced by health care leaders in adopting health information systems and identify how they can be prevented.
Propose a solution that could be used to eliminate or reduce a cultural and/or behavioral resistance to health information system adoption.
Evaluate the processes that are involved in a systems development lifecycle (SDLC) and how the processes relate to each other.

Current Information and Communication Technologies
With so much attention focused on health care reform, it is important that nurses be given the opportunity to use high-quality technology tools. These tools can increase access to vital medical information, promote effective communication among health care professionals, and improve the patient experience. By actively seeking out and adopting these tools, nurses can greatly enhance the quality and safety of care that they provide.
This Discussion focuses on identifying quality technology tools that increase the ability of nurses to provide safe, effective care.
To prepare
:
· Review the various technology tools.
· Identify a recently adopted information, education, or communication technology tool in your specialty area. Reflect on how it is used and how its use impacts the quality of care.
· Consider how your identified technology tool might impact nursing practice if it were more widely used. What are some barriers preventing increased usage? How could wider implementation be facilitated?
Question:
Post
a description of a current or new information, education, or communication technology tool that is being used in your specialty area and assess its impact on the quality of care. Highlight the effect that increased use of this technology would have on nursing practice and discuss the barriers that are slowing or hindering its adoption. Summarize how adoption of the technology tool could be facilitated.

(Examples of uses include: reaching remote locations — rural, international consulting; reduce/prevent rehospitalizations by increasing the number of patient contacts and triaging patients; urgent care center visits; physician practices with virtual visits, etc.)
3. Explain the benefits of the telehealth system that you select and the type of outreach it will offer, including the pros, cons, etc.
4. Develop a general budget (include 3 line items: system software cost, implementation cost, and training costs) for the system. How much will it cost to implement, train staff, and maintain the system? Justify your estimation.
5. Develop a cost/benefit analysis. How can you justify spending on this telehealth system? How will it save, improve access, or improve quality for your health care provider and/or the patients who use it?
6. Find another health care provider that has successfully implemented a telehealth system. What can you learn from their implementation or use that can help with implementing your system?
7. Make a recommendation specific to your provider and provide an overview of the implementation plan/approach, based on your facility size, staff, services offered, and needs.

An important function of marketing is to drive growth in sales and revenue for a company. Marketing is especially adept at doing so for a new product with many competitive advantages and much potential. Chapter 2 introduced how companies can grow through expansion with new products and new markets, the detailed
focus of Chapters 8 and 15. Along those lines, Phil and Milton Kotler stress the following strategies.

Growing the Core
Make the core of the brand as distinctive as possible
Drive distribution through both existing and new channels
Offer the core product in new formats or versions
Although many different growth strategies are available to firms, some of the best opportunities come from growing the core—focusing on their most successful existing products and markets. UK marketing guru David Taylor advocates three main strategies, citing these examples:
1. Make the core of the brand as distinctive as possible. Galaxy chocolate has successfully competed with Cadbury by positioning itself as “your partner in chocolate indulgence” and featuring smoother product shapes, more refined taste, and sleeker packaging.
2. Drive distribution through both existing and new channels. Costa Coffee, the number-one coffee shop in the United Kingdom, has found new distribution routes using drive-thro.

BUSI 330
Collaborative Marketing Plan Final Draft Instructions
Include the following in your Group Discussion Board Forum:
1. A report with the final Marketing Plan that includes the three previous drafts, attached as an MS Word file. In addition, this final MP must include the following sections:
· Marketing Programs & Financial Projections.
You should review pp. 54–55 of the text for examples of the key issues that should be discussed within these sections of the MP. You will need a comprehensive marketing program, which includes a discussion of: the Product Strategy, the Pricing Strategy, the Promotion Strategy and the Distribution (channels) Strategy.
The last section on Financial Projections should show a 5-year projection of expected revenues. In addition, you should present some type of idea when BE (break-even) will take place. Companies that introduce new products generally do not make a profit in “year 1” because of the high development and marketing costs required to test and launch the product. Obtaining costs will be difficult, but you should try to estimate costs.
· Executive Summary (ES)
Finally, once the MP is written, you will need to write the Executive Summary. The ES is written last but is placed right after the Table of Contents. You will want the reader to see the ES first. if they like it, they may read on. If it does not excite the reader, the MP will likely be discounted. The ES should contain only the most important findings, conclusions, and recommendations contained within your plan.
· The Table of Contents
The Table of Contents contains a list of the major sections of your marketing plan with the names of the group members that participated in the actual writing of each section. This will allow the instructor to evaluate each member’s contribution to the overall group project.
· Appendices
The only Appendix required is a reference list. Keep in mind that data and key information may need citations, but will surely require a reference list. A plan with no references will be considered marginal since information sources add considerable credibility to the ideas in your plan.
Your Collaborative Marketing Plan Final Draft must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday of Module/Week 8.

BUS308 Week 4 Lecture 1
Examining Relationships
Expected Outcomes
After reading this lecture, the student should be familiar with:
1. Issues around correlation
2. The basics of Correlation analysis
3. The basics of Linear Regression
4. The basics of the Multiple Regression
Overview
Often in our detective shows when the clues are not providing a clear answer – such as
we are seeing with the apparent continuing contradiction between the compa-ratio and salary
related results – we hear the line “maybe we need to look at this from a different viewpoint.”
That is what we will be doing this week.
Our investigation changes focus a bit this week. We started the class by finding ways to
describe and summarize data sets – finding measures of the center and dispersion of the data with
means, medians, standard deviations, ranges, etc. As interesting as these clues were, they did not
tell us all we needed to know to solve our question about equal work for equal pay. In fact, the
evidence was somewhat contradictory depending upon what measure we focused on. In Weeks 2
and 3, we changed our focus to asking questions about differences and how important different
sample outcomes were. We found that all differences were not important, and that for many
relatively small result differences we could safely ignore them for decision making purposes –
they were due to simple sampling (or chance) errors. We found that this idea of sampling error
could extend into work and individual performance outcomes observed over time; and that over-
reacting to such differences did not make much sense.
Now, in our continuing efforts to detect and uncover what the data is hiding from us, we
change focus again as we start to find out why something happened, what caused the data to act
as it did; rather than merely what happened (describing the data as we have been doing). This
week we move from examining differences to looking at relationships; that is, if some measure
changes does another measure change as well? And, if so, can we use this information to make
predictions and/or understand what underlies this common movement?
Our tools in doing this involve correlation, the measurement of how closely two
variables move together; and regression, an equation showing the impact of inputs on a final
output. A regression is similar to a recipe for a cake or other food dish; take a bit of this and
some of that, put them together, and we get our result.
Correlation
We have seen correlations a lot, and probably have even used them (formally or
informally). We know, for example, that all other things being equal; the more we eat. the more
we weigh. Kids, up to the early teens, grow taller the older they get. If we consistently speed,
we will get more speeding tickets than those who obey the speed limit. The more efforts we put
into studying, the better grades we get. All of these are examples of correlations.
Correlatio.

SUBJECT: Out of Class Experience – Cybersecurity Conference
Cybersecurity is a topic everyone should be concerned about, so I attended the 3rd Annual Cybersecurity Event held in the Grawn Atrium. I gained insight and knowledge from listening to the speakers that came from different kinds of industries. In this memo, I will discuss what I learned from the speaker and two takeaways: 1) cybersecurity is everywhere, 2) personal identifiable information, and 3) cybersecurity for the business student.
Cybersecurity is Everywhere
The conference was an opportunity to learn about cybersecurity. The first speaker talked about how companies are attacked in many different ways every day. The “bad guys” are trying to steal company information as well as employee information. Both kinds of information are valuable on the black market. The second speaker talked about the internet of things (IoT). These are things that are attached to the internet. The speaker talked about autonomous cars and medical equipment (heart) that talks to the internet. She talked about how cyber can and should influence designs. “Things” must be created with cybersecurity included in every step of the design. The last speaker talked about how my information has value. The “bad guys” steal my information and people want to buy it. Making money is one reason hackers steal millions of records.
Personal Identifiable Information
Personal Identifiable Information (PII) is any information relating to an identifiable person. There are laws in place to help make sure this information is secure. This topic is a takeaway for me because I had no idea my data had any value t.

To simplify completing this milestone, use this template to help you write your essay. You may use each
heading as a starter sentence and then discuss the legal issues presented in the case study using the
following guide, if you choose. Be sure to explain and elaborate on how each term applies to the story.
Be sure to incorporate the facts of the case into your explanation and analysis.
Remember that the document you submit should follow the formatting guidelines described in the
Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric document.
A. Various elements must be present to prove that a valid contract exists between Sam and the
chain store.
The four elements to a contract are . (Chapter 13)
The first element of would be deemed to exist if [describe facts that
are or should be present].
The second element of would be deemed to exist if [describe facts
that are or should be present].
The third element of would be deemed to exist if [describe facts that
are or should be present].
The fourth element of would be deemed to exist if [describe facts
that are or should be present].
If the elements of a contract did exist between these parties, there could still be some
possible reasons why a contract might not be valid based on facts not present in the
scenario. For example, if Sam was a minor at the time he made the agreement with
the chain store, the contract would not be valid because . List
some other reasons and elaborate on why a contract might be invalid.
Discuss and explain any other information you deem relevant to this answer.
(Chapters 13, 14, 15, and 16)
B. Even if there is not a valid legal contract between Sam and the chain store, there may still be
a quasi-contract (Chapter 13) or elements of what is called a promissory estoppel. (Chapter
15)
A quasi-contract is defined as . In this case, a quasi-contract may exist
if the following facts are true: . (Chapter 13)
A promissory estoppel is defined as . This principle might apply to this
case if . (Chapters 13 and 16)
Discuss and explain any other information you deem relevant to this answer.
C. The rights and obligations of both the landlord and tenant depend upon the term of their
contract. Such a contract may be verbal or in writing under a standard residential lease
agreement. (Chapters 13 and 50)
Some facts that may support that Sam is in breach of that contract are

Most motivational theories focus on internal factors, not external, but situations also have an impact.
Behaviorism asserts that behavior should be studied in an objective and systematic way without consideration of inner mental states.
Hull’s drive theory argues that behavior is a function of drive multiplied by habit.
Arousal is broadly defined and is thought to be responsible for consciousness, attention, and intensity.
Social facilitation refers to the tendency for the presence of others to improve task performance.
Person-by-situation explanations assert that person variables and situation variables interact with each other in a multiplicative way to influence behavior.

Key questions to be answered
The need for autonomy
Attribution theory
Overjustification effect
Illusion of control
Magical thinking
Reaction to loss of autonomy
Desire for no control
Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved
The need for autonomy represents a basic desire for personal control.
Attributions refer to people’s beliefs about the cause of a particular outcome and can be in a variety of forms.
The overjustification effect tells us that motivation decreases when people are given an extrinsic reward for a task that is already intrinsically rewarding.
Most people overestimate the amount of control they have in their lives.
The illusion of control leads to magical thinking, such as tempting fate.
When people feel their freedom is being taken away, they can be reactive and then possibly show learned helplessness.
Having too many options decreases motivation to do well.

The Fall and Rise of Motivation Science
Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved
Key questions to be answered
Early theories on motivation examined will, which is the ability of an agent to make choices free from constraints. A variety of theorists examined will in a variety of settings.
Determinism states that some predetermined cause determines all things, and that instincts are one form of determinism.
Other theorists argued that people (and animals) are motivated by drive, which is a form of arousal that arises when a need is deprived.
Incentives stemmed from behaviorism, which examined incentives and learning.
In the 1970s, cognition changed the way we understand motivation, removing it from other paradigms.
As with other disciplines, motivation has experienced rises and falls. Currently, there is an increased interest in motivation.

Building a company with the help of IT is really necessary as most.docx
Building a company with the help of IT is really necessary as most of the daily things are running via technology these days and while using technology you must have some minimum criteria for all of those who are using it. Usually, the company must make some policies for internal use and external use, so that where someone crosses the line, they are able to catch hold of them and take a severe action as per the business policies. Now this is really important because due to an error from one person there are other people who would get affected, and there are multiple stages to those areas, that checks the severity of all of those mistakes.
Here some of them that is general while making policies, such as visiting pornographic web sites using company computer is not allowed, disrupting another’s data or computer system and sharing corporate database information. When employees make any of these mistakes, then companies have authorities to terminate employees from the business. Usually every employee is supposed work as per the basic rules or you can say acceptable usage policy. While using company materials and internet, because most of the office work is done over the internet, like using cloud or any other online applications. This allows you to have full access to outside world, but you must know what are the DO’s and Don’t’s. This will help you stick to the company for long time and also grow with the company as much as possible (Information Resources Management Association. International Conference).
These are made by looking at the history, because most of the employees have made some worst things in the history for personal benefits and ended sharing company details with outsiders, and hampered own company value. Using such valuable data, someone from outside can take over the company or misuse the data or they can do anything that can hurt the business directly. When the business owners are going under loss, the company can take actions against such activity or people who are committing those mistakes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
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.
