Case Study Continued – Week Five
You have been performing in the role of project manager in support of Ms. Jackson’s vision of creating a
strong and talented project management professional team leading to stronger project execution. Ms.
Jackson has just called you into her office with a few updates:
• ACME has been revisiting their strategy and decided that product development will become a
heavy focus for the organization over the next three years. Due to this product development
focus, she wants to also implement an Agile training program which will specifically focus on
Scrum techniques. Ms. Jackson has asked for you to add it to the scope of the current training
program which was approved when you submitted the business case. She is not familiar with
change management principles so you will have to create a change form and high level change
process that the team will follow. Ms. Jackson is willing to give you an additional $15,000 in
budget but would like this completed in the same timeframe as the initial project request. The
$15,000 is her budget but may not be based upon what the actual costs may be. According to
your research, adding Agile may cost an additional $20,000 and have to be done subsequent to
the initial training program which has already been scheduled.
• In addition, upon a recent review of your risk register with your team, a risk that was identified
as high impact is seemingly turning into an issue. This risk was related to the potential turnover
in training personnel. You have just learned that your top trainer may be leaving the project for
a new opportunity.
• The current forecast of the project indicates that your cost estimate may have been too low.
Current projections indicate that beginning in month five of the project, you may be exceeding
your budget by $10,000 per month.
• Other key indicators:
• Your actual month end scheduling data shows that you are currently performing
according to plan and all tasks are being completed on time.
• Your last staffing report shows very little project team attrition or turnover.
• Early surveys from participants in the training show a high degree of satisfaction.
Changes such as these are not uncommon in the project management profession. Determining
whether the request constitutes a change in scope, schedule, and budget is an integral component of
project management.
Using your business case, project charter and stakeholder analysis, determine how this new
information will impact your project. What type of change process will you be recommended be
implemented?
Assignment Overview:
For this assignment, you will be assessing a proposed change to the scope of the project, proposing an overview of a change management process, drafting a change request form, and discussing how the change will be communicated to the stakeholders inclusive of the sponsor.

Introduction
Technology and information technology in particular, can now provide help in many ways that were not possible in the past. However, as more and more information and business and personal transactions are delivered or managed online, so it is increasingly important to ensure that users are not disadvantaged by the technology. Indeed, there is legislation that now requires organizations to provide both physical and virtual access so that no special needs group is disadvantaged.

Objective In this assignment, you will not complete a project. Ra.docxcherishwinsland
Objective: In this assignment, you will not complete a project. Rather, you will propose a project. This assignment is designed to allow you to be imaginative and draw on your own life experiences. Making use of a 250-word proposal and 6 slide PowerPoint, you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of Course Goals 1, 2, and 3 by:
•Accurately and effectively communicate ideas, information, arguments, and messages to present material in a historical context.
•Investigate and evaluate historical information from global, social, and ethical perspectives to guide decision making.
•Applying historical precedent to contemporary roles, responsibilities, and relationships in order to advance the goals of a community or organization.
You will briefly identify and propose a solution for a problem for a community or organization. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the need or viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials.
Instructions: Briefly identify a problem for a community or organization, and propose a solution. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials. Feel free to dream. The sky is the limit. Imagine that you could actually get the Department of Transportation to fund a light rail project to enable dog owners to get home to walk their dogs at lunch time in Los Angeles. This is absurd, of course, but it is fine to dream, so long as the problem is real and your solution would do actual good. In a 250 word summary, identify a problem for a community or organization and propose a project that would either solve that problem or increase the well being of its members. Propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the required readings.
You may always write beyond the minimum guideline. Your proposal must have a thesis statement.
Including additional relevant and substantive content beyond the minimum word count will help your grade. For historical background, if you would like to include it, you may consult any of the course materials, including the required readings and classroom discussion posts (by you, me, or your peers). Cite everything you use, and cite abundantly.
PowerPoint: Your PowerPoint of at least six slides will allow you to illustrate your proposal, providing supporting imagery. Do not fret about the PowerPoint! Remember this is history. The people we study did not have PowerPoint.
· This assignment consists of two (2) sections: a draft of your business plan and an income statement containing your business plan financials (i.e. Week 7 Discussion "The Financials"). Note: You must submit both sections as separate files for the completion of this assignment.

I. Project 3: Financial Statement Analysis Project
II. Introduction:
This project is designed to assess your ability to research corporate data, analyze and interpret financial statements and make a presentation to your boss and colleagues.
The project provides opportunities for you to further develop the following competencies:
Graduate School Core Competencies:
1. Communication
2. Critical thinking
Accounting Competencies:
3. Measurement, analysis, and interpretation
4. Reporting
5. Research
6. Technology and tools
Business Competencies:
7. Global and industry perspective
Professional Competencies:
8. Professional behavior
Scenario:
You graduated with a MS in accounting from UMGC and have recently been hired by a large accounting firm in Washington, D.C. You report directly to the senior accountant, Kathryn Cowgal, who is originally from Colorado and loves to ski when she’s not riding horses. Fortunately, you and Kathryn hit it off right away and you’re excited to be part of her team.
It’s Monday morning, you’re at your desk with a cup of coffee and a Danish staring at your long list of emails wondering how you’ll ever have time to catch up on last week’s projects. Your boss Kathryn briskly enters your office, sits down, and says, you’re going to love this assignment. I have hand-picked you to prepare a financial analysis for a new client in the retail industry. Kathryn goes on to say your report will be part of a company-wide analysis of the retail business sector in the US. For the analysis, she instructs you to choose from a list of paired public retail companies that are among the Fortune 500 and to be prepared to present your findings to the client. Kathryn hands you the list of paired public retail companies, suggested steps to follow, and a list of deliverables. She strongly encourages you to submit drafts, which she refers to as milestones. The purpose of the milestones is to receive Kathryn’s constructive feedback on your deliverables to give you an opportunity to improve your final versions before her deadline.
Further, Kathryn informs you that she and the CFO will also be attending your presentation to the client. They plan to use your presentation as part of the first quarter review all new employees undergo during the probation period with the company. Realizing this project could make or break your opportunity to stay employed beyond the probation period, you decide to review financial analyses techniques, interpreting SEC 10-K reports, and other resources to prepare the report and make a stellar presentation (Appendix A).

Case Study Continued – Week Five
You have been performing in the role of project manager in support of Ms. Jackson’s vision of creating a
strong and talented project management professional team leading to stronger project execution. Ms.
Jackson has just called you into her office with a few updates:
• ACME has been revisiting their strategy and decided that product development will become a
heavy focus for the organization over the next three years. Due to this product development
focus, she wants to also implement an Agile training program which will specifically focus on
Scrum techniques. Ms. Jackson has asked for you to add it to the scope of the current training
program which was approved when you submitted the business case. She is not familiar with
change management principles so you will have to create a change form and high level change
process that the team will follow. Ms. Jackson is willing to give you an additional $15,000 in
budget but would like this completed in the same timeframe as the initial project request. The
$15,000 is her budget but may not be based upon what the actual costs may be. According to
your research, adding Agile may cost an additional $20,000 and have to be done subsequent to
the initial training program which has already been scheduled.
• In addition, upon a recent review of your risk register with your team, a risk that was identified
as high impact is seemingly turning into an issue. This risk was related to the potential turnover
in training personnel. You have just learned that your top trainer may be leaving the project for
a new opportunity.
• The current forecast of the project indicates that your cost estimate may have been too low.
Current projections indicate that beginning in month five of the project, you may be exceeding
your budget by $10,000 per month.
• Other key indicators:
• Your actual month end scheduling data shows that you are currently performing
according to plan and all tasks are being completed on time.
• Your last staffing report shows very little project team attrition or turnover.
• Early surveys from participants in the training show a high degree of satisfaction.
Changes such as these are not uncommon in the project management profession. Determining
whether the request constitutes a change in scope, schedule, and budget is an integral component of
project management.
Using your business case, project charter and stakeholder analysis, determine how this new
information will impact your project. What type of change process will you be recommended be
implemented?
Assignment Overview:
For this assignment, you will be assessing a proposed change to the scope of the project, proposing an overview of a change management process, drafting a change request form, and discussing how the change will be communicated to the stakeholders inclusive of the sponsor.

Introduction
Technology and information technology in particular, can now provide help in many ways that were not possible in the past. However, as more and more information and business and personal transactions are delivered or managed online, so it is increasingly important to ensure that users are not disadvantaged by the technology. Indeed, there is legislation that now requires organizations to provide both physical and virtual access so that no special needs group is disadvantaged.

Objective In this assignment, you will not complete a project. Ra.docxcherishwinsland
Objective: In this assignment, you will not complete a project. Rather, you will propose a project. This assignment is designed to allow you to be imaginative and draw on your own life experiences. Making use of a 250-word proposal and 6 slide PowerPoint, you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of Course Goals 1, 2, and 3 by:
•Accurately and effectively communicate ideas, information, arguments, and messages to present material in a historical context.
•Investigate and evaluate historical information from global, social, and ethical perspectives to guide decision making.
•Applying historical precedent to contemporary roles, responsibilities, and relationships in order to advance the goals of a community or organization.
You will briefly identify and propose a solution for a problem for a community or organization. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the need or viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials.
Instructions: Briefly identify a problem for a community or organization, and propose a solution. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials. Feel free to dream. The sky is the limit. Imagine that you could actually get the Department of Transportation to fund a light rail project to enable dog owners to get home to walk their dogs at lunch time in Los Angeles. This is absurd, of course, but it is fine to dream, so long as the problem is real and your solution would do actual good. In a 250 word summary, identify a problem for a community or organization and propose a project that would either solve that problem or increase the well being of its members. Propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the required readings.
You may always write beyond the minimum guideline. Your proposal must have a thesis statement.
Including additional relevant and substantive content beyond the minimum word count will help your grade. For historical background, if you would like to include it, you may consult any of the course materials, including the required readings and classroom discussion posts (by you, me, or your peers). Cite everything you use, and cite abundantly.
PowerPoint: Your PowerPoint of at least six slides will allow you to illustrate your proposal, providing supporting imagery. Do not fret about the PowerPoint! Remember this is history. The people we study did not have PowerPoint.
· This assignment consists of two (2) sections: a draft of your business plan and an income statement containing your business plan financials (i.e. Week 7 Discussion "The Financials"). Note: You must submit both sections as separate files for the completion of this assignment.

I. Project 3: Financial Statement Analysis Project
II. Introduction:
This project is designed to assess your ability to research corporate data, analyze and interpret financial statements and make a presentation to your boss and colleagues.
The project provides opportunities for you to further develop the following competencies:
Graduate School Core Competencies:
1. Communication
2. Critical thinking
Accounting Competencies:
3. Measurement, analysis, and interpretation
4. Reporting
5. Research
6. Technology and tools
Business Competencies:
7. Global and industry perspective
Professional Competencies:
8. Professional behavior
Scenario:
You graduated with a MS in accounting from UMGC and have recently been hired by a large accounting firm in Washington, D.C. You report directly to the senior accountant, Kathryn Cowgal, who is originally from Colorado and loves to ski when she’s not riding horses. Fortunately, you and Kathryn hit it off right away and you’re excited to be part of her team.
It’s Monday morning, you’re at your desk with a cup of coffee and a Danish staring at your long list of emails wondering how you’ll ever have time to catch up on last week’s projects. Your boss Kathryn briskly enters your office, sits down, and says, you’re going to love this assignment. I have hand-picked you to prepare a financial analysis for a new client in the retail industry. Kathryn goes on to say your report will be part of a company-wide analysis of the retail business sector in the US. For the analysis, she instructs you to choose from a list of paired public retail companies that are among the Fortune 500 and to be prepared to present your findings to the client. Kathryn hands you the list of paired public retail companies, suggested steps to follow, and a list of deliverables. She strongly encourages you to submit drafts, which she refers to as milestones. The purpose of the milestones is to receive Kathryn’s constructive feedback on your deliverables to give you an opportunity to improve your final versions before her deadline.
Further, Kathryn informs you that she and the CFO will also be attending your presentation to the client. They plan to use your presentation as part of the first quarter review all new employees undergo during the probation period with the company. Realizing this project could make or break your opportunity to stay employed beyond the probation period, you decide to review financial analyses techniques, interpreting SEC 10-K reports, and other resources to prepare the report and make a stellar presentation (Appendix A).

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
