DISCUSSION 1Community and Health Information Networks Please .docx
A key trend supporting CHINs and RHINOs is increased data sharing across organizations to improve care coordination. Transitioning from CHINs to RHINOs has more benefits than challenges as it allows for broader sharing of health information across larger regions. Integrating CPOE and CDSS into EHRs has the advantage of catching errors and providing treatment recommendations to improve patient safety and outcomes. Electronic database systems are more efficient than paper records as they reduce errors, save space, and allow easy access to records. The main advantages of EMRs are reduced errors, easy sharing of information, and improved treatment while the disadvantages include costs of implementation and concerns about privacy and security.

Discussion 10: Concluding the Semester
Purpose
This assignment is closely tied to specific course objectives. Two of the major primary course objectives of CST 100 are that students show respect for ethical codes that govern spoken discourse, such as tolerance for differences of opinion, preference for civility and that students will demonstrate increased understanding and appreciation of the communication process as it relates to speaker and listener interactions. By completing this assignment students will reflect on the things they learned and articulate important lasting lessons of public speaking.
Directions
Part 1: Initial Post
Find the due date for this part on the course calendar.
As we conclude the semester, reflect on some of the things that you learned about public speaking and your growth as a communicator throughout the semester.
In a 3-4 paragraph posting, address the four items below
What are the most important areas of personal growth that you have experienced as a communicator? Identify personal insights and communication competencies that are part of that growth.
What are some of the most useful theories and concepts that we examined in the class?
How can you apply some of the things that you learned during the semester to your professional life and to your current or future work?
What aspects of communication do you want to learn more about?

Discussion 1 Social Security and Social Welfare ProgramsFor years.docx
Discussion 1: Social Security and Social Welfare Programs
For years, many working individuals in the United States have counted on Social Security as their primary retirement income. With the deductions from every paycheck to fund this future benefit, Americans looked forward to a comfortable retirement based on the assumption that these funds were being invested wisely. Is this a factual assumption, or is it another myth of the U.S. social welfare system?
Relying on Social Security as a sole means of support in retirement is uncommon. As society’s work habits and life expectancies change, Social Security has come to mean different things to different people. For those who are unable to save and/or invest on their own, it functions like a forced retirement program that provides a financial safety net for the future. For those who become unable to work, social security often is viewed by others as a public assistance program. For others who are financially secure and prepared for retirement, it is an entitlement program where individuals draw Social Security at retirement in an effort to recoup what they paid into the program by deductions from their wages. How might these perceptions of Social Security relate to the perceptions of public assistance programs that were discussed in last week’s resources?
For this Discussion,
review this week’s resources. Then, consider how Social Security is different from public assistance programs. Finally, think about how these differences are important in terms of the general perception of Social Security benefits.
Post by Day 3

Discussion 1 Religion and Privilege For citizens in some countrie.docx
Discussion 1: Religion and Privilege
For citizens in some countries, religious oppression is common and long standing. While freedom of religion is guaranteed in the U.S., religious intolerance still exists. According to the Equal Opportunity Employment commission, the number of lawsuits filed for religious discrimination doubled between 2000–2010 (Pledger, 2011). Social workers must be alert for the complex ways that religious privilege functions. By creating an awareness of the privilege given to some while marginalizing others, social workers can understand how this bias impacts their clients.
Post an explanation of the connections between privilege and religion.

CASE STUDY:
Working With Survivors of Sexual Abuse and Trauma: The Case of Brenna
Brenna is an 18-year-old, heterosexual, African American female. She is pregnant, residing in a homeless shelter, and has no income source. Brenna was raised by her biological mother in a one-bedroom apartment in an urban neighborhood. When Brenna was 15 years old, her mother began dating a new man. This man sexually assaulted Brenna while they were home alone one evening. She immediately disclosed the sexual assault to her mother who called her a liar and told her to move out. Brenna then lived in a variety of situations, sometimes residing with friends for short periods and sometimes living in a youth shelter. During this period she attended high school intermittently but did not graduate.
After her 18th birthday, Brenna moved in with her boyfriend, Cameron. Also living in the household were Cameron’s mother, his 16-year-old sister, and a 7-year-old brother. Shortly after moving in with Cameron, Brenna became pregnant with his child. Prior to the pregnancy, Cameron would often abuse her physically, verbally, and emotionally. When Brenna announced the pregnancy, Cameron became even more violent, accused her of sleeping with other men, and denied paternity of the baby. When Brenna was 4 months pregnant, Cameron attempted to strangle her, so Brenna moved to a shelter. Although the shelter was willing to house Brenna and her newborn temporarily, their policy required Brenna to secure new living arrangements prior to giving birth.
I was assigned to be Brenna’s social work case manager at this shelter. Brenna and I worked together to set manageable goals during her stay at the shelter and also developed a plan for ongoing mental health support. Utilizing individual case manage- ment sessions, I worked with Brenna to prioritize goals regarding nancial stability, permanent housing, and medical care. Brenna had dif culty reading and writing, so we worked together to

Discussion 1 Sara Parker and EthicsOne of the reasons there can.docx
Discussion 1: Sara Parker and Ethics
One of the reasons there can be so much debate about ethical issues is because ethics are opinions informed by people's values and people have different values. People can disagree about whether or not something is unethical, and, oftentimes, there is no right answer. In order to make decisions about what may be ethical or unethical, Yegidis (2012, p. 29) suggests focusing on these three questions:
"Who should benefit or suffer from the actions of the researcher?"
"Whose rights should take priority over those of others?"
"Does the end (increased knowledge) justify the means (the methods used to acquire it and their potential for harm)?"
For this Discussion, view the Sessions episode on the Parker family. As you do so, consider which, if any, ethical mandates or standards were violated.

Post

Discussion 1 Reflections on Qualitative Research for Social Change.docx
Discussion 1: Reflections on Qualitative Research for Social Change
Introduction: Social Change
In the recent years, the pursuit for institutions, “practical researchers” and individuals to join in the crusade for
social change
has been remarkable; as many people around the world are reaching out to their neighborhoods as a member of the community to contribute to the common good through research, service, and educational opportunities (
Yob
& Brewer, 2015. p.2). Social change constitutes a change in the nature, the social institutions, the social behavior or the social relations of a society, community of people, or other social structures (Walden University, 2016). Social change can be at the micro scale (that positively shape values, attitudes and behaviors) or at the macro scale (that positively shape
economies, religion and families).
The Essence of Social Change to a Walden Student
Yob
& Brewer (2015) observed that the term “social change” has been defined and analyzed across the academic disciplines, reflecting the particular perspective of that discipline and its research agenda. Prominent among the definition of
social change
are the concepts of
social justice
and
equity
which have been significant in discussions of social change in education, psychology, and social and cultural studies (Curry-Stevens, 2007; Drury &
Reicher
, 2009;
Moely
,
Furco
, & Reed, 2008; and
Peterson, 2009, as were cited in
Yob
& Brewer (2015). There are as many definitions for
social change
as we have social scientists. However
Hoff and
Hickling
-Hudson (2011), supporting the definition of
Aloni
(2002), provided the definition which places social change as “challenging trends of discrimination, exploitation, oppression, and subjugation displayed by groups who regard themselves as favored and, thus, take privileges for themselves and deprive other groups of the right to a dignified life” (p. 189). In this context, “
change”
as is used in the “social change” is defined here in positive and value-laden terms that relate more particularly to the agents of social change than to others they might want to change.
There is a great range and variation in the roles and positions that researchers takes up in research, as was observed by
Ravitch
& Carl (2016).
Over the years (
more than 45 years), Walden University has produced career professionals with the opportunity to transform themselves as scholar-practitioners so that they can apply what
they’ve
learned to effect positive social change. Walden is focused on inspiring and celebrating the remarkable achievements of community members who continue to make a difference by addressing challenges where they live, in their professions, and in the world around them. This was a major factor that attracted me to pursue a
programme
at Walden. In our sub-region, (the sub-Sahara Africa), addressing the issue of social change from the national perspective has not been as significant relative to the.

Discussion 1
As of my experience and observations mainly there are Two key themes in contemporary information systems development there are First one is: how to build and issue systems in tinier time settings second one is: how to empower development clusters to build systems in a consistent manner. This is reflected in present days’ principal fashionable this information system development methods such as nimble, their characteristic feature being an unambiguous prominence on unremitting, appropriate proclamations and a simplification of operative cluster association and announcement. As of my experience and observations most of the software developers we reconnoitre the personal property of cluster consistency and two categories of time pressure, deterrent and challenge, on the decision-making eminence of system development clusters. The challenge time pressure and cluster consistency to have a optimistic consequence with interruption time pressure having no substantial influence.
As well working composed in a consistent cluster, petite, system development cycles mean that Software Development clusters obligation similarly work under fluctuating gradations of time pressure. Most studies in this field of information systems development and software development on time pressure measure time as a rectilinear hypothesis and enumerate it in terms of time ancient history. In this Developments I observed One of the major matters with these revisions nevertheless is that they frequently harvest contradictory consequences and as hitherto, there is no any approved and comprehensive hypothetical empathetic of the time pressure hypothesis.
In my experience, I would like to share one example, some outcomes recommend that software development clusters achieve improved under time pressure. So far others recommend that clusters accomplish improved up to a convinced argument after which presentation deteriorations, important to the generally recognized reversed-U model. It is clear that time pressure is a multipart hypothesis and while typically scrutinized as a linear hypothesis, nonlinear associations are conceivable. With a present prominence in information system development and in particular software development on clusters conclusion production in pressurized environments it is domineering that investigators endure to gain larger empathetic of the anthropological behavioural characteristic of the decision-making development. Sympathetic how clusters work composed under time pressure is a key goal in development system and its essential to entirely appreciate this complication and help comprehend accurately how and if time pressure and consistency influence of software development clusters.
Seeming Time Pressure in Teams
Time pressure is abstractly diverse from insistence. Perseverance is a unchanging peculiarity that reproduces a anxiety for time and a feeling of being recurrently pressurized In disparity, time pressure is an assessment of the task si.

Discussion 1: Influence of Classical Democratic Theorists
Since ancient times, the idea of how people should govern has been a mainstay of philosophers and political theorists. One of the most enduring notions to emerge from early theorists is the basic belief that people are capable of governing themselves. The concept of democratic governance developed out of those early intellectual discussions. Democratic governance enjoys widespread acceptance in many parts of the world today. Yet, the exact meaning of democratic governance and how it should be implemented still remains a topic of debate. Democratic theory has evolved because of contributions from classical democratic theorists such as Aristotle, Plato, Rousseau, Locke, and Jefferson. It is important to consider of the ideas of these classical theorists when thinking about modern democratic theory.
To prepare for this Discussion
Review the Course Introduction. Keep this overview in mind as you work through each week of the course.
Review the article “American Nightmare: Neoliberalism, Neoconservatism, and De-Democratization” in this week’s Learning Resources. Think about the effects of political democratic theories on contemporary democracy.
Review the article “Rhetoric and the Public Sphere: Has Deliberative Democracy Abandoned Mass Democracy?” in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider how Plato’s theory of deliberative democracy influenced contemporary theories of democracy.
Review the articles “John Locke” and “Jean Jacques Rousseau” in this week’s Learning Resources. Think about how social contract theory is related to contemporary democratic theory.
Select at least one classical democratic theorist and consider his influence on contemporary democratic theory.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3

Discussion 1: Coding Scholar of Change of Video # 3 (John Anner)
Brief Description of the Video
The scholar of change video (program transcript) was presented by John Anner, a PhD candidate in Public Policy Administration (with concentration on International Non-governmental Organizations. – Walden University.
Over the years, Anner have been
focusing on agricultural problems in Africa and the Caribbean, and later joined the Peace Corps, where he worked as a Peace Corps volunteer in agriculture in Mauritania and West Africa.
Anner has been a
practitioner for almost 30 years and quest to acquire a PhD is to enable him add some intellectual and academic rigor to his work.
He hope to
bring to bear, his knowledge, experience and understanding to build national policy networks targeted at addressing directed social problems.
Coding the Scholar Change
A code in qualitative inquiry is most often a word or a short phrase that symbolically assigns a summative, a summary, a salient or essence-capturing attribute, for some portion of language, or visual data (
Saldana, 2016)
. My coding preference will be the use of the Excel spreadsheet with the labelling of the columns to include; the video code number (under this, I’ll have my notes), the name of the student, gender, program of study, subject matter/topic, what happened in the video (under this I’ll have my transcript which will capture my report content), quick memo.
To demonstrate the first coding, for instance, I’ll have the following; under the column for video code number (I’ll have video #3), the column for the name of the student (I’ll have
John Anner
), under gender column (
male
), program of study (
PhD in Public Policy Administration
), subject matter/topic (
scholar of change
), under the transcript (I’ll have
focused his attention on agricultural problems in Africa and the Caribbean, and later joined the Peace Corps, and worked as a Peace Corps volunteer in agriculture in Mauritania, West Africa;
a practitioner for almost 30 years; his quest to acquire a PhD is to enable him add some intellectual and academic rigor to his work).
Explaining My Choice of Coding
Another attractive aspect of this qualitative coding system is the insertion of a column for
memos
. “Memos are a very important part of qualitative data analysis process because they offer a great platform to put very short notes which can be expanded and placed in in the researcher’s analytic memo notebook” (
Laureate Education - Producer, 2016). Again at periods of data analysis and reflections, a memo will enable the interviewer to
know what part of the text (or the questionnaire) the information came from and what the interviewer was thinking about at that period in time.

Discussion 1 Managing Diverse TeamsFor the last half-century, the.docx
Discussion 1: Managing Diverse Teams
For the last half-century, the workforce in the United States has been undergoing tremendous demographic changes. For example, in 2009 women accounted for almost 48% of American workforce, compared to 37% in 1970 (Barsh & Yee, 2011). Additionally, workers under the age of 44, and those most likely to be in school, college, or professional training, are more ethnically and racially diverse than ever before (Policy Alert, 2005). This is only diversity of gender, race, and ethnicity; consider how managers today must also lead increasingly diverse teams in terms of age, experience, nationality, geographic location, and even diversity of thinking styles. Contemporary businesses draw employees from a more diverse pool of talent than ever before. To be successful, top managers must understand how to develop and lead diverse teams.
Managing a group composed of individuals with unique cultures, backgrounds, personalities, and abilities can be a daunting task. As a manager, it is your responsibility to ensure that team and group interactions are successful. As you review the Learning Resources this week to prepare for your Discussion posting, think about how you define diversity and diversity affects teams. Pay particular attention to the media resource, “Will Differences Doom the Team,” which presents some of the challenges managers face when leading a diverse team, and consider the key competencies managers must possess to effectively manage a diverse team. As you prepare for your post, consider what diversity means for you and how the diversity you have encountered in your professional experience have impacted how the team functions.

Discussion 1 ClassismIncome and wages are measurable indicators.docx
Discussion 1: Classism
Income and wages are measurable indicators of how prosperity is distributed amongst social class. Wealth, often determined by an individual's net worth (assets minus liabilities), is another indicator that is used to determine class. Wealth for working class families is measured by their cars, savings, and home. As people improve their social and economic standing, wealth may include things like stocks and bonds, commercial real estate, and expensive jewelry.
Wealth is an important indicator because it spans past, present, and future generations. For example, compare the children of parents who can save money and leave an inheritance with children of parents who economically struggle and have few assets to pass on to the next generation. Historically, the creation and accumulation of wealth provides evidence of the legacy of racism, sexism, and discrimination and their role in determining class. Black/African Americans, women, and Hispanic/Latinos have historically been denied the means to obtain assets and grow wealth. Consider the impact of chronic marginalization on the Black/African American community's ability to build wealth. While the income gaps between various ethnic groups may be decreasing, the gap between assets remains wide. Data from the Pew Research center show that the median wealth of Caucasian households is 20 times that of Black/African American households and 18 times that of Hispanic/Latinos households in the U.S. (Pew Research Center, 2011).
Class extends beyond wealth and other financial indicators. Class also includes details like the amount of free time you enjoy (because you are not working three jobs to make ends meet) or feeling like there is a "right" way to speak and act in order to be heard. For this Discussion, analyze how classism has impacted your life.

Discussion 2: Power, Privilege, and Classism
Power, privilege, and classism are interconnected. The more privilege you enjoy, the more power you have to access opportunities that build wealth. The more wealth you can amass, the higher your social standing. It is important to note that having wealth is not an indictment. However, the privileges that have often led to inequalities in wealth distribution are real. As a social worker, you may find yourself working with clients who do not enjoy the privileges you knowingly or unknowingly enjoy. The more you understand your own relationship to power, privilege, and class, the better you will understand your clients' realities. For this Discussion, review how classis.

Discussion 1:
Title:
Relationship between democracy and decolonization movements
Colonies dependent from the rules and policies of other countries can quickly become against these rules in the desire of being independent. This can also be triggered by a difference in culture. When colonies decide to fight their oppressors it is usually because they are not given enough rights and are being mistreated, this kind of movement can be impulsed by a leader that is fighting towards liberty and democracy. For example, Sun
Yat
-Sen spent many years studying different political and economical manners around the world and throughout time to come up with a democratic system that according to him would impulse the New China. I think when a civilization has been ruled by a foreign country their main goal is to reach democracy. In democracy they would be able to choose their representatives and governors, opposite to colonization principles.
On the other side, communism, in my opinion is more related to decolonization movements when the wage-class is no longer looking for an opportunity to be able to choose their governors but the opportunity to be able to grow economically, that is, be able to get properties and not just enough money to survive. In communism the main goal is to take away the bourgeois' private property and make it be owned by society.
Discussion 2:
title:
The Decolonization movements.
During the time of the decolonization movements, the countries of the southern hemisphere wanted freedom from their ruling foreign governments. The people in the lower classes, also known as the working class, wanted to have better lives and to be equal to those of the rich class, so they proposed the communist party to power. Communism gained its popularity by claiming that all working people are equal and that it was the best way to make a country successful. This ideology greatly differs from those of democracy, where people have equal rights and freedoms, characteristics that were wanted in a new government by the colonized peoples.

Discussion 1 Reflections on Qualitative Research for Social Change.docx
Discussion 1: Reflections on Qualitative Research for Social Change
Introduction: Social Change
In the recent years, the pursuit for institutions, “practical researchers” and individuals to join in the crusade for
social change
has been remarkable; as many people around the world are reaching out to their neighborhoods as a member of the community to contribute to the common good through research, service, and educational opportunities (
Yob
& Brewer, 2015. p.2). Social change constitutes a change in the nature, the social institutions, the social behavior or the social relations of a society, community of people, or other social structures (Walden University, 2016). Social change can be at the micro scale (that positively shape values, attitudes and behaviors) or at the macro scale (that positively shape
economies, religion and families).
The Essence of Social Change to a Walden Student
Yob
& Brewer (2015) observed that the term “social change” has been defined and analyzed across the academic disciplines, reflecting the particular perspective of that discipline and its research agenda. Prominent among the definition of
social change
are the concepts of
social justice
and
equity
which have been significant in discussions of social change in education, psychology, and social and cultural studies (Curry-Stevens, 2007; Drury &
Reicher
, 2009;
Moely
,
Furco
, & Reed, 2008; and
Peterson, 2009, as were cited in
Yob
& Brewer (2015). There are as many definitions for
social change
as we have social scientists. However
Hoff and
Hickling
-Hudson (2011), supporting the definition of
Aloni
(2002), provided the definition which places social change as “challenging trends of discrimination, exploitation, oppression, and subjugation displayed by groups who regard themselves as favored and, thus, take privileges for themselves and deprive other groups of the right to a dignified life” (p. 189). In this context, “
change”
as is used in the “social change” is defined here in positive and value-laden terms that relate more particularly to the agents of social change than to others they might want to change.
There is a great range and variation in the roles and positions that researchers takes up in research, as was observed by
Ravitch
& Carl (2016).
Over the years (
more than 45 years), Walden University has produced career professionals with the opportunity to transform themselves as scholar-practitioners so that they can apply what
they’ve
learned to effect positive social change. Walden is focused on inspiring and celebrating the remarkable achievements of community members who continue to make a difference by addressing challenges where they live, in their professions, and in the world around them. This was a major factor that attracted me to pursue a
programme
at Walden. In our sub-region, (the sub-Sahara Africa), addressing the issue of social change from the national perspective has not been as significant relative to the.

Discussion 1
As of my experience and observations mainly there are Two key themes in contemporary information systems development there are First one is: how to build and issue systems in tinier time settings second one is: how to empower development clusters to build systems in a consistent manner. This is reflected in present days’ principal fashionable this information system development methods such as nimble, their characteristic feature being an unambiguous prominence on unremitting, appropriate proclamations and a simplification of operative cluster association and announcement. As of my experience and observations most of the software developers we reconnoitre the personal property of cluster consistency and two categories of time pressure, deterrent and challenge, on the decision-making eminence of system development clusters. The challenge time pressure and cluster consistency to have a optimistic consequence with interruption time pressure having no substantial influence.
As well working composed in a consistent cluster, petite, system development cycles mean that Software Development clusters obligation similarly work under fluctuating gradations of time pressure. Most studies in this field of information systems development and software development on time pressure measure time as a rectilinear hypothesis and enumerate it in terms of time ancient history. In this Developments I observed One of the major matters with these revisions nevertheless is that they frequently harvest contradictory consequences and as hitherto, there is no any approved and comprehensive hypothetical empathetic of the time pressure hypothesis.
In my experience, I would like to share one example, some outcomes recommend that software development clusters achieve improved under time pressure. So far others recommend that clusters accomplish improved up to a convinced argument after which presentation deteriorations, important to the generally recognized reversed-U model. It is clear that time pressure is a multipart hypothesis and while typically scrutinized as a linear hypothesis, nonlinear associations are conceivable. With a present prominence in information system development and in particular software development on clusters conclusion production in pressurized environments it is domineering that investigators endure to gain larger empathetic of the anthropological behavioural characteristic of the decision-making development. Sympathetic how clusters work composed under time pressure is a key goal in development system and its essential to entirely appreciate this complication and help comprehend accurately how and if time pressure and consistency influence of software development clusters.
Seeming Time Pressure in Teams
Time pressure is abstractly diverse from insistence. Perseverance is a unchanging peculiarity that reproduces a anxiety for time and a feeling of being recurrently pressurized In disparity, time pressure is an assessment of the task si.

Discussion 1 ClassismIncome and wages are measurable indicators.docx
Discussion 1: Classism
Income and wages are measurable indicators of how prosperity is distributed amongst social class. Wealth, often determined by an individual's net worth (assets minus liabilities), is another indicator that is used to determine class. Wealth for working class families is measured by their cars, savings, and home. As people improve their social and economic standing, wealth may include things like stocks and bonds, commercial real estate, and expensive jewelry.
Wealth is an important indicator because it spans past, present, and future generations. For example, compare the children of parents who can save money and leave an inheritance with children of parents who economically struggle and have few assets to pass on to the next generation. Historically, the creation and accumulation of wealth provides evidence of the legacy of racism, sexism, and discrimination and their role in determining class. Black/African Americans, women, and Hispanic/Latinos have historically been denied the means to obtain assets and grow wealth. Consider the impact of chronic marginalization on the Black/African American community's ability to build wealth. While the income gaps between various ethnic groups may be decreasing, the gap between assets remains wide. Data from the Pew Research center show that the median wealth of Caucasian households is 20 times that of Black/African American households and 18 times that of Hispanic/Latinos households in the U.S. (Pew Research Center, 2011).
Class extends beyond wealth and other financial indicators. Class also includes details like the amount of free time you enjoy (because you are not working three jobs to make ends meet) or feeling like there is a "right" way to speak and act in order to be heard. For this Discussion, analyze how classism has impacted your life.

Discussion 2: Power, Privilege, and Classism
Power, privilege, and classism are interconnected. The more privilege you enjoy, the more power you have to access opportunities that build wealth. The more wealth you can amass, the higher your social standing. It is important to note that having wealth is not an indictment. However, the privileges that have often led to inequalities in wealth distribution are real. As a social worker, you may find yourself working with clients who do not enjoy the privileges you knowingly or unknowingly enjoy. The more you understand your own relationship to power, privilege, and class, the better you will understand your clients' realities. For this Discussion, review how classis.

Discussions that needs respond:
Discussion 1:
Title:
Relationship between democracy and decolonization movements
Colonies dependent from the rules and policies of other countries can quickly become against these rules in the desire of being independent. This can also be triggered by a difference in culture. When colonies decide to fight their oppressors it is usually because they are not given enough rights and are being mistreated, this kind of movement can be impulsed by a leader that is fighting towards liberty and democracy. For example, Sun
Yat
-Sen spent many years studying different political and economical manners around the world and throughout time to come up with a democratic system that according to him would impulse the New China. I think when a civilization has been ruled by a foreign country their main goal is to reach democracy. In democracy they would be able to choose their representatives and governors, opposite to colonization principles.
On the other side, communism, in my opinion is more related to decolonization movements when the wage-class is no longer looking for an opportunity to be able to choose their governors but the opportunity to be able to grow economically, that is, be able to get properties and not just enough money to survive. In communism the main goal is to take away the bourgeois' private property and make it be owned by society.
Discussion 2:
title:
The Decolonization movements.
During the time of the decolonization movements, the countries of the southern hemisphere wanted freedom from their ruling foreign governments. The people in the lower classes, also known as the working class, wanted to have better lives and to be equal to those of the rich class, so they proposed the communist party to power. Communism gained its popularity by claiming that all working people are equal and that it was the best way to make a country successful. This ideology greatly differs from those of democracy, where people have equal rights and freedoms, characteristics that were wanted in a new government by the colonized peoples.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
