Hollywood Design Engineer Cover Letter
Dear Sherwood Design Engineers Intern Hiring Team,
I'm a First–Year in Barnard College at Columbia University and I would love to be considered for an
internship position this summer at Sherwood Design Engineers.
Although my major is currently undeclared, I have a strong interest in engineering and
environmental sciences and will definitely be pursuing a degree in a physical science. Barnard
currently doesn't offer any engineering major, and the only way to pursue it at Columbia is to be
enrolled in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS); I'm at Barnard, however,
because a liberal arts education is important to me, in addition to engineering. Since the schools are
all under Columbia, there are various ways to still pursue engineering as a Barnard student, and I am
on a current track to do any of them. Of the two I am considering, the first is a 3–2 dual degree
program, which requires that you complete a major in three years, and during that time you take all
required prerequisites to apply to a two–year SEAS program. At the end of the first three years,
assuming you have completed prerequisites and credits for a liberal arts degree, you are
automatically admitted to complete an undergraduate engineering major in the next two years if
your GPA is 3.3 or higher. The second program I am considering is an express masters program at
SEAS, which Columbia students can gain entry to if we have a degree at the end of four years which

I am passionate about spaces and design, as well as the environmental implications of design. My
brain works in both a very mathematical way, but also very visual and artistic way, which is
precisely why engineering and design are so intriguing to me. I believe that working at Sherwood
would make engineering as a profession something tangible which I can work towards as a career
later

The Success Of A Department 's Doctoral Program
Literature Review
The dissertation is "the most powerful, objective measure of the success of a department's doctoral
program" (Lovitts, 2007). Nevertheless, the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) (2016a, 2016b) has
reported that institutions of higher education face critical challenges regarding attrition and students'
timely completion of quality dissertations. With doctoral student attrition ranging from 40% to 60%,
pressure from regulators and governing bodies has institutions scrambling to find sustainable
solutions, while yet maintaining dissertation quality and rigor (Brill, Balcanoff, Land, Gogarty, &
Turner, 2014; CGS, 2016b; Harris, Birk, & Sherman, 2016; Kelley & Salisbury–Glennon, 2016;

One means to enhance this relationship is through the development of institutional assessment
standards, where administrators can hold faculty accountable for consistent delivery of rigorous
educational best practices. Although theorists have proposed changes in higher education to replace
traditional with formative assessment, few administrators have implemented these changes within
their institutions (Fook & Sidhu, 2010). Unlike traditional assessment, the purpose of formative
assessment is not merely to prove student learning, but to guide and develop it, where what is
learned is dependent upon how it is learned (Fook & Sidhu, 2010; Resnick, 1989; Walters et al.,
2015). Such feedback, contingent upon the complex interrelationships of cognitive, affective, socio–
cultural, and contextual factors, can increase a student's ability to grasp the processes underlying
scholarly writing and research, which are essential to successful completion of a quality dissertation
(Resnick, 1989; Walters et al., 2015).

Personal Essay On Technology And Technology
Technology has played a significant role within my academic and professional achievements. At a
very young age, I was introduced to programming by a math teacher in the seventh grade. After
being sentenced to twenty–four hours of detention for making jokes during class, I learned my first
programming language, GW BASIC from that same math teacher. One evening, during detention,
this instructor saw that I had idle time on my hands and decided to make me a deal. The instructor
made a deal that, once I finished all my homework; if I could write a computer program that made a
ball bounce across the screen, for every trick that the ball does, he would subtract one hour of
detention off my time. This seemed like something I could not refuse and I promptly accepted the
offer.
However, I did not know I would spend many hours learning BASIC and days coding the program. I
quickly came to understand that, this really was not a good deal at all. Nonetheless, I stuck with the
agreement. By the end of the semester, not only did I write my first computer program, but also I
had somehow managed to become a member of the Gilmore Jr. High School Math & Science Team.
Eventually, I moved on to more advanced systems and technology. The point I want to make is that,
this experience became the basis of how I would approach learning technology in the future.

Structural Strain Theory And Social Order
Deviance, behavior that is outside of what is deemed socially acceptable, is necessary for stability
and social order in society–this according to functionalist theorist Emile Durkheim (MindEdge, Inc.,
2016). Historically, society has generally been successful in providing motivation for individuals to
aspire to goals of some sort, whether through wealth, prestige or, perceived power (Henslin, 2011).
However, from a functionalist perspective, theories have been developed by identifying when lawful
and equal access is not afforded to certain individuals in the process of obtaining such goals. This
restriction and inequality to opportunity for access in the quest to achieve success is what is now
referred to as structural strain theory, which was developed by sociologist Robert Merton (Henslin,
2011). According to Merton, structural strain theory describes the resulting outcome or motivations
demonstrated through deviant behaviors, that arise when individuals are unable to reach these goals
through lawfully acceptable means (Alsamaloty & El Bouayadi–van de Wetering, 2012). Over the
past year, I have been working to obtain a college degree, specifically in the disciplines of
psychology and sociology. It is my intention to utilize the acquired knowledge–specific to such

Role Of Clinical Nurses With Research
Discussion
In general we found that clinical nurses with research–active characteristics become research–active
in response to a clinical trigger and they were successful because they were in an environment that
was supportive of clinical nursing research. Unlike the findings reported by Woodward et al. (2007),
our nurses did not think research was a hard or daunting undertaking. However, our sample differed
significantly as nurses in our study were not conducting research as an educational exercise to meet
a course or degree requirement. It may be that the nurses in the Woodward et al. study lacked
research–active nurse characteristics and/or were attempting to complete their research in an
environment that was not supportive of research by nurses. Their only motivation was that the
project was required, and since this was a school project, lack of organizational support might not be
surprising.
Similar to the findings by Tanner and Hale (2002) the nurses in this study became research–active in
response to a need or desire to solve a clinical problem (trigger). In addition, like Tanner and Hale
our nurses did not identify barriers to the conduct of research; rather they talked about things that
supported their research. Similarities between this study and the study by Tanner and Hale may be
related to sampling. Neither of these two studies included nurses who completed a study as part of a
degree or course requirement.

Nursing As A Graduate Degree Program
Introduction Nursing as a profession has been one with vast growth in the world. Gone are the days
whereby nurses are not allowed to obtain a doctoral degree in their field (Reid–Pointe & Nicholas,
2015). Per Reid–Pointe & Nicholas (2015), about70–years ago, nurses could only obtain a doctoral
degree in non–nursing field. However, today, nurses have the choice to obtain a doctoral degree with
research focus or practice centered doctoral degree (Reid–Pointe & Nicholas, 2015). The idea that
nurses now have different doctoral options to concentrate on has aid in the assuring adequate
amount of nursing facilities. In addition, the vast doctoral degree programs as caused advancement

Her father knew that higher education options for women were limited, yet was determined to plan

sophomore. In 1883, the tragic illness and death of her sister Maude (who was a few months
younger than her) was an experience that permanently influenced her thinking and character.
Calkins spent the following academic year off at home and tutored two of her younger brothers. In
the fall of 1884, she returned Smith College as a senior and graduated with a concentration in
classics and philosophy.
In 1886, her family embarked a sojourn to Europe for over a year. Mary was able to explore Leipzig,
Italy and Greece where she expanded her knowledge of languages and the classics. When they
returned, her father arranged a job interview with the President of Wellesley College for women
close to home. There She became a tutor in the Greek department and began teaching in September
of 1887. Mary taught Greek at Wellesley for three years. When Mary was in her late twenties, a
professor in the Philosophy Department noticed her excellent teaching skills. He conversed with
Mary the need for a teacher in the developing field of Psychology and offered her the job as long as

A Comparison OfThe Consolation Of Philosophy And Doctor...
Happiness is often thought to be something of relativity. What makes one person happy does not
necessarily bring happiness to another. Nevertheless, how happiness is defined, by no doubt, has
something to do with the characteristics of a culture and time. For example, the beginning of the
sixth century was characterized by many controversies in the newly officialized religion of
Christianity – Arianism, to name one. Religion, at the time, became a big factor in defining true
happiness. As controversies got resolved, the use of religion as a means to defining happiness
remained a constant through the sixteenth century, but the influence became more on the need for
reformation in the Church. One author in the sixth century, Boethius, writes vividly on the idea of
happiness in his The Consolation of Philosophy. Similar points that Boethius makes about happiness
can be found between the lines of a sixteenth century writer, Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus.
Due to the difference in the eras of which The Consolation of Philosophy and Doctor Faustus were
written, the authors present happiness in a manner relative to their time, while ultimately both
agreeing that true happiness is rooted in God. Both authors present their own understanding of what
happiness is not in order to better proclaim what it is. Boethius makes a point that happiness cannot
be found in temporary things. He writes, "Do you really hold dear that kind of happiness which is
destined to pass away"

School District's, only require teachers to remain employed thorough the school year to earn a raise
in pay for the next year, automatically moving to the next step on the salary schedule. Pay increases
also are earned by moving to the next lane or column based on the hours of graduate credit
completed toward an advanced degree, such as a Masters, Specialist, or Doctoral degree. Hollister
RV School District's certified staff's salary schedule discloses several areas of exceptionality,
highlighting what is important to the District. However, there are also areas to be improved,
including recruitment and retention (Hollister RV School District, 2016). One exceptional
characteristic of the salary schedule is that the vertical steps carry the same monetary value as the
horizontal columns with the exception of completing a Master's degree or a Specialist degree. This
salary schedule indicates an equal value is placed on service and completed education. Upon
completing a degree, staff salaries increase $960 instead of the $480 earned by simply accumulating
additional hours of education.

Program Structure And Resources For Business Administration
Program Structure and Resources There are some general facts that are good to know when it comes
achieving "the highest academic degree one can earn in the business administration field within the

program structure and resources, allow me to share several insights personally obtained throughout

What Is A Ph.D. Degree in Business Administration?
First, it might be helpful to know that the formal title, Doctor of Philosophy, is often presented in the

How is a Ph. D. Different from a Doctor of Business Administration?
One way to comprehensively evaluate the differences of a Doctor of Philosophy from a Doctor of
Business of Philosophy is to understand some overlapping facts of their backgrounds. Therefore, let
us briefly compare a few of the basics, starting with the titles. Just as the Doctor of Philosophy can
be abbreviated, the Doctor of Business of Philosophy is also often seen abbreviated, but instead, as
DBA, D.B.A., DrBA, or Dr.B.A.. The PhD and DBA embrace programs which support and direct
intellectuals to develop creatively–advanced research, leading to a defensive dissertation. Or, in
other words, they are "generally designed to prepare students for academic careers, either in
teaching or research or both." (DBA vs. PhD in Business Administrations Programs, n.d.) One major
difference between PhD and DBA is that a DBA "is a research doctorate awarded on the basis of
advanced study and research in the field of business administration. (Research of Doctorate
Degrees, 2012) In addition, the Ph.D "is highly focused on developing theoretical knowledge",
while the D.B.A. "emphasizes applied research" (Research of Doctorate Degrees, 2012) More
specifically, as Dr. Sherrie Lewis stated (and is cited in reference (Erskine, 2013)) a

How Do People Learn Their Workplace?
How do people learn in their workplaces? That was a question in my mind while driving to the
Jeddah Refinery where I had my first exposure to a workplace as an intern in 1998. I realized
through that experience the difference between classroom learning and workplace learning. Since
then, I have been interested in workplace learning as a lively topic throughout various stages in my
career. I am currently work as a learning and staff development specialist. This job requires a set of
roles and responsibilities like identifying the development needs of the staff of IDB, as well
planning and managing training programs and workplace learning activities.
Moreover, I would like to highlight that one of the interesting roles assigned to me was managing
the internship program open to students and fresh graduates to get exposure to organizational work
and activities and get some practical experience related to their academic fields of study.
My interest in the area of workplace learning and workforce development as a chosen career path is
increasing, and I am encouraged to pursue an opportunity for professional development and growth.
By joining a graduate program at a reputable university to learn more about the concepts and
principles of this field of study, I truly agree with how you described as an applied discipline that
requires combination between academic research and insights coming from hands–on experience
and practical application in actual work environments. Therefore,

Student And Graduate Level Writing
Scholarly Writing One of the major distinctions between student and graduate–level writing is the
targeted audience. This not only includes a difference in the number of intended recipients but also
involves an increasing level of intercepting personalities, an assortment of personalities whom can
all offer a plethora of varying opinions, ideas, or concerns. Likewise, the student's responsibility is
amplified when writing at the graduate level, since he or she must contribute originality while
continuing to bring forth meaningful and engaging work. Academic writing is often embedded with
the expectations and goals of developing the skills and confidence of students working towards
achieving graduate–level writing. Essentially, this could ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This word, important, almost sounds like an understatement, but it truly is important since citing and
crediting are morally and ethically required. "According to the Merriam–Webster online dictionary,
to "Plagiarize" means: To steal and pass off (the ideas of words of another) as one's own To use
(another production) without crediting the source To commit literary theft To present as new and
original an idea or product derived from an existing source In other words, plagiarism is an act of
fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and lying about it afterward." (WriteCheck,
2014) One reason for using APA style in research papers is that it allows readers to understand the
context of the reference, since APA is more than a style of writing but rather a standard type of guide
by the American Psychological Association (APA). By keeping to this standard format, writers and
readers can more easily refer to a specific document, sentence, or even an idea, with little to no
room for miscommunication, misunderstandings, or errors. A key reason for using an APA style of
writing is two–fold, in that, it can help to determine the originality or plagiaristic nature of a person's
work, as well as, provide you/your audience with the information necessary to find the source and
acknowledges that certain material has been borrowed – thus, avoiding plagiarism. References

Graduate Degree At The University Of Waterloo
The overarching goal I have for pursuing a degree in Industrial/Organizational psychology is to gain
experience from specific areas of research in the I/O psychology field. I have had the opportunity to
take part in the research of this field throughout my undergraduate degree but have not been able to
explore it as in depth as I could through a graduate degree. Completing a Master 's of Applied
Science in I/O psychology at the University of Waterloo will allow me to reach this goal as I know
that research is an integral part of the program. As such, my current interest in career choices are
focused on the teaching and research aspects of being a professor. My recent experience as an
Honours Thesis student has demonstrated my passion for research and teaching as I have had the
opportunity to conduct my own research and present it in order to teach my classmates about my
thesis topic. My previous experience in research has demonstrated that I have the ambition to pursue
graduate studies in order to reach my career aspiration. I know that a Master 's of Applied Science in
I/O psychology at the University of Waterloo will guide and challenge me to achieve my long–term
goal. Throughout my Master 's degree my objective is to work with people and conduct impactful

Mary Whiton Calkins Essay
Mary Whiton Calkins
Mary Whiton Calkins, is best known for two things: becoming the first woman president of The
American Psychological Association and being denied her doctorate from Harvard. However, these
two aspects only make up a small portion of what she accomplished in her life. Her entire life was
dedicated to her work, especially the development of her Psychology of selves. She founded an
early psychology laboratory and invented the paired–associate technique. She passionately dove into
the new field of Psychology but also was highly active in the field of Philosophy. She was not
deterred by being a woman and used her struggles to gain a voice to speak out against women's
oppression. (5)

However, she faced two problems meeting this condition. The first, being that there were few
psychology departments in 1890. Secondly, getting admitted to these places that did offer the
program was highly unlikely since she was a woman. Her first consideration was to study abroad.
An instructor at Smith told her that her best chance was to try obtaining "private instruction in
psychology and philosophy at any of the German universities outside of Zurich" (6).
However, another instructor told her that would be a good idea "if ladies had been allowed the same
privileges as men" (6). Calkins formally dismissed going to Germany when she received a letter
from a woman student attending the University of Gottingen which stated, "I wish I might
encourage you; but past experience has proved to me the utter uselessness of trying to enlighten the
authorities, at least, in our generation."
Once Calkins started looking at the United States, she discovered that the University of Michigan,
where she would be studying under John Dewey, and Yale, where she would be studying under G.T.
Ladd, were promising. However, she received a letter from another woman student that dissuaded
her. The letter stated, "Personally, I should be immensely glad if you would come. We might be able

Psychology, The Scientific Study Of The Mind
Psychology, defined as the scientific study of the mind, is a very broad field with many career
opportunities. Psychology is a fairly new field and has many job opportunities available for anyone
wanting to make a career with a degree. There are therapy related jobs along with jobs that are not
therapy related. Most psychologists wanting a job that is therapy related need a master's degree or
doctoral, however ones who do not pursue a job with therapy obtain a bachelor's or master's. The
average pay for psychologists ranges from around $70,000 to $100,000 annually. The amount of pay
results from the location and the education one has acquired. Psychologists also have a range of
tasks depending on the type of psychology one pursues. Throughout this research, a few careers in
psychology will be explored and information will be provided about each of these careers. Sports
psychology is a relatively new field of study in which a sports psychologist helps professional and
amateur athletes. Sports psychologists are people who help amateur and professional athletes
heighten performance, attain their goals and overcome their problems. An athlete who becomes
anxious or loses focus during competition would consult a sports psychologist to conquer these
issues. Athletes who also have trouble communicating with their teammates, finding motivation and
controlling their anger could seek the help they need from this type of psychologist. Not only can

interest. Between military based careers to more technical and business related workplaces, it's
rather difficult to narrow a broad interest. College is a go to of course for a degree, with it being
public relations, it would make sense that I may be interested in a career involving this. I still am
troubled regarding exactly what I might be interested in regarding the future.
Growing up I was raised in a military family, I was exposed to quite a bit of things, subjective and
educational. Throughout that time, my parents were deployed at certain points and this taught me
how to better take care of myself mentally and physically. While I never had permanent friends, it
never stopped me from forming new relationships with new people all the time. Living in areas from

Personal family issues occur throughout life and unexpected. No one can predict the outcomes for
what tomorrow will bring. A personal obstacle encountered through this current dissertation process
will be given as an example and how to overcome. During the fourth week into a course, my son
was at a pool party with his cousin. He drank a few beers; he is only seventeen. We don't know if he
was pushed or if he jumped into the pool. Thankfully, a friend seen him when he was in the water,
noticed he was not coming up, jumped in and pulled him out and began CPR. How long was he
under? The brain can only handle 3 to 6–minutes without oxygen before brain damage occurs. He
had to be hospitalized for a near death drowning incident; he had to be airlifted to a nearby
children's hospital where he was put on a ventilator for a week, and kept in the hospital for two
weeks for kidney failure. Your world comes to a stop. Your heart is at your feet; you're helpless.

have been most successful in my math classes, exhibiting a perfect record despite the rigor.
However, the real rewards from these courses are illustrated by my comfort and mastery economic
topics that four years ago would have challenged me.
By maturing as both an academic and researcher, I am now able to tackle more intricate topics and
teach them to others. While at Claremont McKenna College, I wrote an honors economics thesis

Who Is An Education?
Committed to an Education
One of the proudest accomplishments of my life was earning my college degree, the first to do so in
my family, despite the fact that my early adulthood pointed in the opposite direction. Beginning with
my marriage at the age of 19, I lived as one of the "working poor," someone who slipped through
the cracks of supposedly historic prosperity working out a lifelong passion for psychology as a
houseparent in homes for abused children. A few years later, I was a divorced and frustrated single
mother with menial, low–paying jobs: clerk, receptionist, and day–care worker, unable to even
collect child support from my ex–husband, who was still a citizen of India. There is nothing like
wondering if your child's next meal will be there to inspire one with determination toward obtaining
an education. Because of my absolute commitment toward earning my degree, I obtained flexible
shifts at the college and a local day care which enabled me to acquire my degree full–time while
supporting myself and my son financially.
Enrolled at the local community college, I experienced a different world opening up to me; excited
by a new encouraging environment, I excelled academically. I learned that if I tried hard, I could
succeed; if I wanted something badly enough, I possessed the ability to take advantage of these

Ernest investigated different variables in environmental factors of development. He tested different
variables such as concentrated seawater, temperature, hydration, dehydration, ect. He strove to make
the laboratory as accurate as possible to the original developmental conditions in its natural settings.
What he did in the past is closely related to what we call today, ecological development biology. Just
played a huge role in the studies of fast and slow blocks to polyspermy. He was able to observe
detailed structural changes in an egg's surface during fertilization with just a light microscope. He
proved that it was the "wave of negativity" that prevented fertilization and not envelope separation.
Ernest also studied the "slow block to polyspermy", a mechanical block located in the fertilization
envelope. Just is most famous for his studies and documentation in these two subjects. While at
Woods Hole, Just studied experimental pathogens within eggs. Just's work led a public disagreement
he had with biologist Jacques Loeb. Jacques insisted that humans could tamper with parthenogenesis
and engineer nature to our benefit. The thing Just disagreed the most with about Loeb's stated that an

Hollywood Design Engineer Cover Letter

  • 1. Hollywood Design Engineer Cover Letter Dear Sherwood Design Engineers Intern Hiring Team, I'm a First–Year in Barnard College at Columbia University and I would love to be considered for an internship position this summer at Sherwood Design Engineers. Although my major is currently undeclared, I have a strong interest in engineering and environmental sciences and will definitely be pursuing a degree in a physical science. Barnard currently doesn't offer any engineering major, and the only way to pursue it at Columbia is to be enrolled in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS); I'm at Barnard, however, because a liberal arts education is important to me, in addition to engineering. Since the schools are all under Columbia, there are various ways to still pursue engineering as a Barnard student, and I am on a current track to do any of them. Of the two I am considering, the first is a 3–2 dual degree program, which requires that you complete a major in three years, and during that time you take all required prerequisites to apply to a two–year SEAS program. At the end of the first three years, assuming you have completed prerequisites and credits for a liberal arts degree, you are automatically admitted to complete an undergraduate engineering major in the next two years if your GPA is 3.3 or higher. The second program I am considering is an express masters program at SEAS, which Columbia students can gain entry to if we have a degree at the end of four years which ...

  • 5. The Success Of A Department 's Doctoral Program Literature Review The dissertation is "the most powerful, objective measure of the success of a department's doctoral program" (Lovitts, 2007). Nevertheless, the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) (2016a, 2016b) has reported that institutions of higher education face critical challenges regarding attrition and students' timely completion of quality dissertations. With doctoral student attrition ranging from 40% to 60%, pressure from regulators and governing bodies has institutions scrambling to find sustainable solutions, while yet maintaining dissertation quality and rigor (Brill, Balcanoff, Land, Gogarty, & Turner, 2014; CGS, 2016b; Harris, Birk, & Sherman, 2016; Kelley & Salisbury–Glennon, 2016; Kezar, 2014; Locke & Boyle, 2016; ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... One means to enhance this relationship is through the development of institutional assessment standards, where administrators can hold faculty accountable for consistent delivery of rigorous educational best practices. Although theorists have proposed changes in higher education to replace traditional with formative assessment, few administrators have implemented these changes within their institutions (Fook & Sidhu, 2010). Unlike traditional assessment, the purpose of formative assessment is not merely to prove student learning, but to guide and develop it, where what is learned is dependent upon how it is learned (Fook & Sidhu, 2010; Resnick, 1989; Walters et al., 2015). Such feedback, contingent upon the complex interrelationships of cognitive, affective, socio– cultural, and contextual factors, can increase a student's ability to grasp the processes underlying scholarly writing and research, which are essential to successful completion of a quality dissertation (Resnick, 1989; Walters et al., 2015). One such theoretical model that addresses these complex interrelationships, where its application can enhance the quality of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 11. Personal Essay On Technology And Technology Technology has played a significant role within my academic and professional achievements. At a very young age, I was introduced to programming by a math teacher in the seventh grade. After being sentenced to twenty–four hours of detention for making jokes during class, I learned my first programming language, GW BASIC from that same math teacher. One evening, during detention, this instructor saw that I had idle time on my hands and decided to make me a deal. The instructor made a deal that, once I finished all my homework; if I could write a computer program that made a ball bounce across the screen, for every trick that the ball does, he would subtract one hour of detention off my time. This seemed like something I could not refuse and I promptly accepted the offer. However, I did not know I would spend many hours learning BASIC and days coding the program. I quickly came to understand that, this really was not a good deal at all. Nonetheless, I stuck with the agreement. By the end of the semester, not only did I write my first computer program, but also I had somehow managed to become a member of the Gilmore Jr. High School Math & Science Team. Eventually, I moved on to more advanced systems and technology. The point I want to make is that, this experience became the basis of how I would approach learning technology in the future.

  • 17. Structural Strain Theory And Social Order Deviance, behavior that is outside of what is deemed socially acceptable, is necessary for stability and social order in society–this according to functionalist theorist Emile Durkheim (MindEdge, Inc., 2016). Historically, society has generally been successful in providing motivation for individuals to aspire to goals of some sort, whether through wealth, prestige or, perceived power (Henslin, 2011). However, from a functionalist perspective, theories have been developed by identifying when lawful and equal access is not afforded to certain individuals in the process of obtaining such goals. This restriction and inequality to opportunity for access in the quest to achieve success is what is now referred to as structural strain theory, which was developed by sociologist Robert Merton (Henslin, 2011). According to Merton, structural strain theory describes the resulting outcome or motivations demonstrated through deviant behaviors, that arise when individuals are unable to reach these goals through lawfully acceptable means (Alsamaloty & El Bouayadi–van de Wetering, 2012). Over the past year, I have been working to obtain a college degree, specifically in the disciplines of psychology and sociology.

  • 19. Role Of Clinical Nurses With Research Discussion In general we found that clinical nurses with research–active characteristics become research–active in response to a clinical trigger and they were successful because they were in an environment that was supportive of clinical nursing research. Unlike the findings reported by Woodward et al. (2007), our nurses did not think research was a hard or daunting undertaking. However, our sample differed significantly as nurses in our study were not conducting research as an educational exercise to meet a course or degree requirement. It may be that the nurses in the Woodward et al. study lacked research–active nurse characteristics and/or were attempting to complete their research in an environment that was not supportive of research by nurses. Their only motivation was that the project was required, and since this was a school project, lack of organizational support might not be surprising. Similar to the findings by Tanner and Hale (2002) the nurses in this study became research–active in response to a need or desire to solve a clinical problem (trigger). In addition, like Tanner and Hale our nurses did not identify barriers to the conduct of research; rather they talked about things that supported their research. Similarities between this study and the study by Tanner and Hale may be related to sampling. Neither of these two studies included nurses who completed a study as part of a degree or course requirement. Our model may explain findings of Syme and Stiles ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Per Reid–Pointe & Nicholas (2015), about70–years ago, nurses could only obtain a doctoral degree in non–nursing field. However, today, nurses have the choice to obtain a doctoral degree with research focus or practice centered doctoral degree (Reid–Pointe & Nicholas, 2015).

Her father knew that higher education options for women were limited, yet was determined to plan and supervise Mary 's education. She entered Smith College at 19 with advanced standing as a sophomore.

It will give them the ability to think outside the box, and help keep our company on the cutting edge of thought and financial comparisons to the other top companies in our field. People with these degrees will be able to work in all types of fields; from financial analysts, marketing, human resources, CPA's, and accountants. All of which are available and expanding positions within our company. I can't reiterate enough how important it is to hire from within. We would no longer have to hire an outside talent that has no idea what we are trying to achieve and the type of environment we are looking to cultivate. We need to hire an employee from within who can hit the ground running. We need to be known as a place that treats its employees like family, where everyone has a name and is not just a number. Finally, it's important to see the affect this will have on the bottom line of employee salaries. For, when you bring in new talent, you have to pay them hire salaries on average.

  • 35. A Comparison OfThe Consolation Of Philosophy And Doctor... Happiness is often thought to be something of relativity. What makes one person happy does not necessarily bring happiness to another. Nevertheless, how happiness is defined, by no doubt, has something to do with the characteristics of a culture and time. For example, the beginning of the sixth century was characterized by many controversies in the newly officialized religion of Christianity – Arianism, to name one. Religion, at the time, became a big factor in defining true happiness. As controversies got resolved, the use of religion as a means to defining happiness remained a constant through the sixteenth century, but the influence became more on the need for reformation in the Church. One author in the sixth century, Boethius, writes vividly on the idea of happiness in his The Consolation of Philosophy. Similar points that Boethius makes about happiness can be found between the lines of a sixteenth century writer, Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus. Due to the difference in the eras of which The Consolation of Philosophy and Doctor Faustus were written, the authors present happiness in a manner relative to their time, while ultimately both agreeing that true happiness is rooted in God. Both authors present their own understanding of what happiness is not in order to better proclaim what it is. Boethius makes a point that happiness cannot be found in temporary things. He writes, "Do you really hold dear that kind of happiness which is destined to pass away" ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The Journal Of Bone & Joint Surgery Study Design: Review Objective: To conduct a scoping review, and to determine trends and characteristics of spine research published by The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery (JBJS) from 2005 to 2015. Method: A PubMed search of all studies published in JBJS from 2005 to 2015 was performed using the keyword "spine". A similar search was conducted on the JBJS website from 2005 to 2015 using the keyword "spine". The study by Gartsman et al (2005) was used as the main reference for this study. Results: Studies were more likely to be of a higher level of evidence (Level I or II) (53.57%) than of a lower level of evidence (Level III or IV). Level–I, II, and III studies (21.43%) had a higher likelihood of having an author with an advanced degree in addition to a medical degree than Level–IV studies (2.86%). Studies with three or more authors (97.14%) were more common than studies with only one or two authors (2.86%). There were more positive studies (53.93%) than non–positive studies (negative studies= 16.85%; neutral studies= 29.22%). Conclusion: The study shows improvement in trends of spine research published by JBJS over the past decade, which suggests an acknowledgement in the development of research techniques and methods.

  • 41. Benefits Of A Unified Salary Schedule There are many advantages and disadvantages to a single, unified salary schedule. These types of salary schedules only recognize years of service and amount of education to determine salary amounts for all certified staff. Each salary schedule has strengths and areas of improvement, and analysis of the salary schedule will highlight these areas. Salary schedules, including Hollister RV School District's, only require teachers to remain employed thorough the school year to earn a raise in pay for the next year, automatically moving to the next step on the salary schedule. Pay increases also are earned by moving to the next lane or column based on the hours of graduate credit completed toward an advanced degree, such as a Masters, Specialist, or Doctoral degree. Hollister RV School District's certified staff's salary schedule discloses several areas of exceptionality, highlighting what is important to the District. However, there are also areas to be improved, including recruitment and retention (Hollister RV School District, 2016). One exceptional characteristic of the salary schedule is that the vertical steps carry the same monetary value as the horizontal columns with the exception of completing a Master's degree or a Specialist degree. This salary schedule indicates an equal value is placed on service and completed education. Upon completing a degree, staff salaries increase $960 instead of the $480 earned by simply accumulating additional hours of education. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Dissertation Handbook, 2015–2016) How is a Ph. D. Different from a Doctor of Business Administration? One way to comprehensively evaluate the differences of a Doctor of Philosophy from a Doctor of Business of Philosophy is to understand some overlapping facts of their backgrounds. Therefore, let us briefly compare a few of the basics, starting with the titles. Just as the Doctor of Philosophy can be abbreviated, the Doctor of Business of Philosophy is also often seen abbreviated, but instead, as DBA, D.B.A., DrBA, or Dr.B.A.. The PhD and DBA embrace programs which support and direct intellectuals to develop creatively–advanced research, leading to a defensive dissertation. Or, in other words, they are "generally designed to prepare students for academic careers, either in teaching or research or both." (DBA vs. PhD in Business Administrations Programs, n.d.) One major difference between PhD and DBA is that a DBA "is a research doctorate awarded on the basis of advanced study and research in the field of business administration. (Research of Doctorate Degrees, 2012) In addition, the Ph.D "is highly focused on developing theoretical knowledge", while the D.B.A. "emphasizes applied research" (Research of Doctorate Degrees, 2012) More specifically, as Dr. Sherrie Lewis stated (and is cited in reference (Erskine, 2013)) a ...

Likewise, the student's responsibility is amplified when writing at the graduate level, since he or she must contribute originality while continuing to bring forth meaningful and engaging work.

"According to the Merriam–Webster online dictionary, to "Plagiarize" means: To steal and pass off (the ideas of words of another) as one's own To use (another production) without crediting the source To commit literary theft To present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and lying about it afterward." (WriteCheck, 2014) One reason for using APA style in research papers is that it allows readers to understand the context of the reference, since APA is more than a style of writing but rather a standard type of guide by the American Psychological Association (APA). By keeping to this standard format, writers and readers can more easily refer to a specific document, sentence, or even an idea, with little to no room for miscommunication, misunderstandings, or errors. A key reason for using an APA style of writing is two–fold, in that, it can help to determine the originality or plagiaristic nature of a person's work, as well as, provide you/your audience with the information necessary to find the source and acknowledges that certain material has been borrowed – thus, avoiding plagiarism.

Beginning with my marriage at the age of 19, I lived as one of the "working poor," someone who slipped through the cracks of supposedly historic prosperity working out a lifelong passion for psychology as a houseparent in homes for abused children.

Just pioneered studies in egg fertilization and other zoology studies and overcame many hardships throughout his life. Ernest Just was born on August 14, 1883, in Charleston, South Carolina. Just four years later his father, Charles Just, died. In debt, Just's mother moved to James Island to work in its phosphate mines. Ernest Just left the house at age 17 to find better educational opportunities in the north. He was inspired to pursue a science education by an esteemed scientist, Pattern, who specialized in evolution. Just received ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Ernest investigated different variables in environmental factors of development. He tested different variables such as concentrated seawater, temperature, hydration, dehydration, ect. He strove to make the laboratory as accurate as possible to the original developmental conditions in its natural settings. What he did in the past is closely related to what we call today, ecological development biology. Just played a huge role in the studies of fast and slow blocks to polyspermy. He was able to observe detailed structural changes in an egg's surface during fertilization with just a light microscope. He proved that it was the "wave of negativity" that prevented fertilization and not envelope separation. Ernest also studied the "slow block to polyspermy", a mechanical block located in the fertilization envelope. Just is most famous for his studies and documentation in these two subjects. While at Woods Hole, Just studied experimental pathogens within eggs. Just's work led a public disagreement he had with biologist Jacques Loeb. Jacques insisted that humans could tamper with parthenogenesis and engineer nature to our benefit. The thing Just disagreed the most with about Loeb's stated that an egg's activation resulted in something happening to the egg. Just ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
