Your friend, an 8th-grade earth science teacher at the local mid.docx
Your friend, an 8th-grade earth science teacher at the local middle school, is organizing an Earth Day celebration for his students and their families. He knows you have recently been learning about environmental policies in this environmental science class and has asked you to be one of several guest speakers at the event. He would like you to explain to the students how scientific research and public awareness of an environmental issue led to an environmental policy or law. The goal is for the 8th-grade students to understand how people and communities (scientific community, government bodies, citizens of a country, etc.) can effect positive change for the environment.
Use
the policy and issue you selected for your Wk 5 Discussion – Environmental Policies in Action.
Prepare
a 3-to 4-minute video and/or audio recording, or a 1,050- to 1,750-word transcript of your presentation.
Address
the following in your presentation:
Summarize the environmental issue. What are its causes? What are the effects on the environment and people? Consider multiple perspectives and locations, as applicable.
Explain how economics and/or personal lifestyle choices or behaviors are related to this issue.
Describe how individuals, communities, and/or governments have worked to address the issue.
Examine the impact of relevant legislation or initiatives. What are the benefits? Have there been any consequences?
Note:
Remember your audience; the presentation needs to make sense and appeal to 13- and 14-year-old students.

Memo on Short Report
To: Danielle Harned, University of Maryland Global College professor
From: Chantal Sanchez Laucer, University of Maryland Global College student
Date: September 20, 2019
Subject: Request to Write Short Report on Professional Forms of Communication
Summary
The use of texting or SMS as a form of professional communication can this can result in good open lines of reciprocal communication in the workplace. Guidelines are implemented to prevent personal discomforts.
What the Problem Is and Why It Needs to Be Investigated
During working hours, there have been issues where an e-mail is sent by higher with valuable information that needed a response immediately. In my case, as a property chief for my work section, my job consists of a combination of computer work and inventory. The days I have to take accountability of the property, I am not on my computer. Therefore, any e-mails sent during the time are not being read. In technology advance workspaces, SMS and video calls are introduced as a form of instantaneous forms of communication. Texting is considered casual, is informal communication due to abbreviations and wording we rarely use in a professional setting. The biggest concern of introducing texting or video calls loss of ethical and professionalism aboard the workplace.

POL 123 – Case Analysis 5 Fact Patterns
Write an analysis for each scenario below. See the Case Analysis Instructions for further information about completing the assignment.
1. Jonas is 18 and recently finished high school. He lives at home with his mom and dad. While collecting dirty laundry in his room one day, Jonas’ mother discovered some of Jonas’ clothing with dried blood on them. She also found a bloody survival knife and muddy boots under his bed, as well as a bracelet that said “Lynn.” A few days earlier, police had discovered the missing body of Jonas’ high school sweetheart, Lynn, in the woods. Lynn had recently broken up with him. The medical examiner had determined that Lynn had died from repeated stabbing. When Jonas had been questioned by the police at the station, he claimed he knew nothing of the incident, and the police have no evidence tying Jonas to the disappearance or murder. Analyze these facts using ethical concepts or concerns from Module 8. (You are not evaluating elements of murder, or due process issues for example.)
2. District Attorney Schultz has brought charges against three players of the University football team. They have been charged with raping a stripper at a party attended by team members. The case has received much publicity and the media have discovered that the three players have a history of violence towards women. (Last year, two other women claimed they had been raped, but the cell phone video showing the forced sex had been excluded based on an illegal police search, and the players were found "not guilty.”) Shultz believes these players are guilty, and has given approximately 60 media interviews on the case. Schultz has also been campaigning for reelection, and a conviction here would go a long way. Unfortunately for Schultz, the DNA tests he ran do not match any of the three players to the victim’s assault. When he questioned her about this, the victim made contradictory statements, and she had no other evidence to corroborate the events. In fact, while her statements confirm that they raped her, she admitted to having consensual sex with two other men at the party, which weakens the case. Schultz decides to not tell anyone about the DNA results unless asked, and instructs the victim/witness to deny the other sexual encounters at trial. Analyze these facts using ethical concepts or concerns from Module 8. (You are not evaluating elements of rape or due process issues for example.) Assuming that Schultz had a strong belief that the defendants were guilty, include in your analysis whether this affects the moral and legal permissibility of his conduct.
3. Michelle worked two jobs as a security guard in Phoenix, Arizona. She was walking outside the building where she works at 6:30 AM, Monday, when two bundles of money fell out of an armored truck en route to a bank. Inside the bundles was approximately $500,000. Michelle had an inheritance that would post to her bank account on Wednesday. She .

Memo on Short Report
To: Danielle Harned, University of Maryland Global College professor
From: Chantal Sanchez Laucer, University of Maryland Global College student
Date: September 20, 2019
Subject: Request to Write Short Report on Professional Forms of Communication
Summary
The use of texting or SMS as a form of professional communication can this can result in good open lines of reciprocal communication in the workplace. Guidelines are implemented to prevent personal discomforts.
What the Problem Is and Why It Needs to Be Investigated
During working hours, there have been issues where an e-mail is sent by higher with valuable information that needed a response immediately. In my case, as a property chief for my work section, my job consists of a combination of computer work and inventory. The days I have to take accountability of the property, I am not on my computer. Therefore, any e-mails sent during the time are not being read. In technology advance workspaces, SMS and video calls are introduced as a form of instantaneous forms of communication. Texting is considered casual, is informal communication due to abbreviations and wording we rarely use in a professional setting. The biggest concern of introducing texting or video calls loss of ethical and professionalism aboard the workplace.

POL 123 – Case Analysis 5 Fact Patterns
Write an analysis for each scenario below. See the Case Analysis Instructions for further information about completing the assignment.
1. Jonas is 18 and recently finished high school. He lives at home with his mom and dad. While collecting dirty laundry in his room one day, Jonas’ mother discovered some of Jonas’ clothing with dried blood on them. She also found a bloody survival knife and muddy boots under his bed, as well as a bracelet that said “Lynn.” A few days earlier, police had discovered the missing body of Jonas’ high school sweetheart, Lynn, in the woods. Lynn had recently broken up with him. The medical examiner had determined that Lynn had died from repeated stabbing. When Jonas had been questioned by the police at the station, he claimed he knew nothing of the incident, and the police have no evidence tying Jonas to the disappearance or murder. Analyze these facts using ethical concepts or concerns from Module 8. (You are not evaluating elements of murder, or due process issues for example.)
2. District Attorney Schultz has brought charges against three players of the University football team. They have been charged with raping a stripper at a party attended by team members. The case has received much publicity and the media have discovered that the three players have a history of violence towards women. (Last year, two other women claimed they had been raped, but the cell phone video showing the forced sex had been excluded based on an illegal police search, and the players were found "not guilty.”) Shultz believes these players are guilty, and has given approximately 60 media interviews on the case. Schultz has also been campaigning for reelection, and a conviction here would go a long way. Unfortunately for Schultz, the DNA tests he ran do not match any of the three players to the victim’s assault. When he questioned her about this, the victim made contradictory statements, and she had no other evidence to corroborate the events. In fact, while her statements confirm that they raped her, she admitted to having consensual sex with two other men at the party, which weakens the case. Schultz decides to not tell anyone about the DNA results unless asked, and instructs the victim/witness to deny the other sexual encounters at trial. Analyze these facts using ethical concepts or concerns from Module 8. (You are not evaluating elements of rape or due process issues for example.) Assuming that Schultz had a strong belief that the defendants were guilty, include in your analysis whether this affects the moral and legal permissibility of his conduct.
3. Michelle worked two jobs as a security guard in Phoenix, Arizona. She was walking outside the building where she works at 6:30 AM, Monday, when two bundles of money fell out of an armored truck en route to a bank. Inside the bundles was approximately $500,000. Michelle had an inheritance that would post to her bank account on Wednesday. She .

Instructions
This document serves two purposes. Firstly, it is a template for the Method section. If you use this document to create your Method section without changing the formatting or deleting section headers, you should have a correctly formatted Method section. You will obviously need to replace much of the text here with your own writing, but leave the section headers untouched and follow the directions and you should be good to go.
Secondly, the text within the body of this document offers advice and suggestions on what to write within each section. They are intended to help you make sure that the appropriate material appears in the appropriate sections. This is text that must be replaced by your own writing, but you should find it helpful.
A final bit of advice: the Method section is like a recipe’s instructions. A recipe lists the ingredients needed very precisely and comments on possible variations (if one is at high altitudes, cooking time may be longer, etc). Similarly, the Participants, Materials, Measures, and Ethical Considerations sections list the ingredients and important issues for the research study very precisely. A recipe will also give the step-by-step process of how to create the dish, just as the Procedure gives step-by-step instructions on how to do the research.
This instruction page should be deleted entirely.
Method
Participants
Begin this section by talking about the population of people that will be needed for this study. Indicate anything necessary to permit the reader to know what sort of person is needed: do they have a disorder? Does it have a specific severity or range of severities? Is there an age range? Are factors such as gender, race, first language or others important or controlled?
Will there be any screening done, such as a questionnaire or a performance test? Will the results of these determine whether a potential participant is eligible to take part? Will these results determine which level of the predictor variable that the participant falls into? For example, if the person has an autism spectrum disorder, an assessment might be made to determine the severity of the disorder in order to classify them as mild, moderate, or severe for the purposes of the research study.
How will the participants be recruited? One can’t simply say: “They will be r.

POL 201 Week 5 DQ 2
Prepare:Prior to beginning your reflection, review all course readings and videos as required.
Reflect:The U.S. national government is based on the framework detailed in the U.S. Constitution. The process that the Founding Fathers used to map out our national government is fascinating and illuminating. The Constitution creates a system of checks and balances and separation of powers that have been focal points for class discussions. In addition, the Constitution identifies three main branches for the national government: the legislative, executive, and judicial, which are tasked, respectively, with the creation of the legislation to guide the country, the implementation and execution of that legislation, and the review of that legislation for constitutionality and legality. Interacting with the federal government includes a variety of different actors and political processes such as the states, political parties, interest groups, and federal elections. All these features create a vibrant and healthy democracy.
Write: In your initial post of at least 200 to 250 words, explain how and why one feature of the U.S. government is the most important for America’s democracy. Choose one feature below to discuss in detail:
· Written, detailed, flexible Constitution.
· Robust checks and balances.
· Explicit separation of powers.
· Expansive interaction by different political actors and processes with the federal government.
Use real-world examples and details to support your arguments. Support your position with APA citations from two or more of the assigned resources required for this discussion. Please be sure that you demonstrate understanding of these resources, integrate them into your argument, and cite them properly.

Stanley my role model
The secret to a healthy life is the feeling of love and peace. Affiliations in our everyday lives play a very crucial role. They serve to satisfy our social needs of being associated with other people and our needs of love. Sages put it that "Blood is thicker than water". A person's relatives serve a great role in their life. These are the people who never leave us in our ups and downs. They indeed are good friends through whom we are bonded by blood.
Stanley is a great friend and a brother to me. He is a person of sound character who quickly mingles with anyone in the society. He is down to earth in making and a composed young lad who does not rush to drawing conclusions when challenged by daily circumstances. His charisma culminated with his education moves all and sundry in subscribing to his viewpoints. Whenever there is need for imparting a young mind with information he does so without hesitance. He is a great source of inspiration and motivation. Stanley's character is worthy emulating. I dearly love and admire him.
Back at home, Stanley is highly appreciated by our parents in his undertakings. He is very generous and ne.

Scene/Interaction
Narration
Slide 1
Introductory screen, containing the environment (an outside view of a government office building) and a title showing the scenario topic. There will be a “begin” button on the screen allowing students to begin the scenario.
Slide 2
Scene 1
Amanda and Dr. Ryan standing in Dr. Ryan’s office.
Dr. Ryan: Hello. It’s good to see you again.
Last week we saw how the bureaucracy and the judiciary functioned within the federal government. This week, we’ll assess how domestic, foreign, and military policies are integrated.
What do you think about these policies, Amanda?
Amanda: This is an immensely broad set of subjects, Dr. Ryan, so I hope I can do them justice.
Dr. Ryan: Well, Amanda, go ahead and give it your best shot.
Amanda: Okay, here I go.
I think we could begin by defining institutions as systems that help form a government and make it function. They include the armed forces, the church, the executive office, the bureaucracy, the judiciary, the voting public, the economy, and the political process itself. If institutions are strong and respond to public’s will, then the government will function smoothly.
But they could also be extractive. This is when they are used by elites to extract resources for their own benefit. Extractive institutions cause the state to be weak.
Slide 3
Interaction Slide
This will be a tabbed interaction that outlines ways of changing Social Security policies in the U.S.
Social Security could:
· Raise the retirement age
· Reduce benefits for high earners
· Raise taxes
· Increase wage cap
· Individual Investments
Button 1: There are several ways that the government could ensure that Social Security continues to support retirees in the U.S. The first way would be to raise retirement age until 70 years old, so that the long-term funding gap would close.
Button 2: The government could also reduce benefits for high earners, by cutting their monthly funds by about ten percent.
Button 3: Taxes could be raised from twelve-point-four percent to thirteen-point-four percent, so as to cover the ever-increasing cost of social security.
Button 4: Increasing the wage cap would mean that workers would pay Social Security taxes on a greater amount of what they earn.
Button 5: Finally, the government could let individuals invest some or all of their Social Security funds into approved, safe mutual funds.
Slide 4
Scene 2
Amanda and Dr. Ryan do a visual tour of a museum or historical exhibit in Capitol Hill that showcases the material that is covered. This is sort of a visual tour of Washington D.C. as well as a visual component to the conversation.
Dr. Ryan: Institutions can be so weak and corrupt that they can lead to state failure like you see in Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, and Somalia.
Now, can you see how this applies to our own government?

People, their politics, and power; contemporary issues, changing political styles and processes, institution and underlying values of the American political system. Satisfies state requirements in U.S. Constitution and California State and local government. One or more sections offered online.
This course is a college level introduction to American government. Students will begin to develop the body of knowledge necessary for informed civic participation. More specifically, students will learn about democratic principles, the structure and institutions of government, the role that ethnicity, race, gender, class, culture and the economy play in shaping the political landscape in America.
By the end of the course students will have learned:
· what the fundamental characteristics of American government are and how the U.S. Constitution affects the organization of government, the relationship between national and state governments, and the relationship between government and citizens.
· understand human political behavior as it is expressed individually, collectively, and in groups.
· how the executive, legislative and judicial branches are organized and the role they play in the policymaking process.
· the institutions and politics of California.
· how to effectively use this knowledge as thoughtful citizens participating in civil society.
COURSE ASSIGNMENTS/REQUIREMENTS:
Exams. There will be three exams in this class. The two midterm exams are worth 100 points each and will cover distinct units identified on the course schedule below. The final exam will be comprehensive. All exams will include multiple choice and essay questions. Students must bring a blank Scantron form #882-E and a blank Bluebook to each exam (both can be purchased at the bookstore).
Quizzes. There will be weekly quizzes in multiple choice format. Scantron form 882E is required for each of the quizzes.

Introduction
Sustainable development is dependent on the effective function of the public institutions. The public institutions shape the living standards of the people. When the public institutions are successful the people have high quality services raising their living standards. It is Essential for organizations to identify the public who affect or are affected by the organizations decision. An organization cannot function alone and it requires the support of all the stakeholders. A critical element of developing strategic leadership is the analysis of the stakeholders. It helps to determine how to strengthen the relationship for optimum gain (Joyce & JOYCE, 1999, p. 32).
There are two broad types of stakeholders, internal and external stakeholders. Internal stakeholders impact the organizational function from within. For instance, employees and board members are internal stakeholders. External stakeholders influence the organization from without. Examples of external stakeholders are communities and the media. They have a stake in determining the value of the organization. The level of influence, amount of power, level of interest and capabilities of the stakeholders vary (Marr & Creelman, 2011, p. 79). They have strong, moderate or low influence and interests in the organizational function. Some are highly active while others are latent and apathetic. It means that the stakeholders cannot be treated equally in any given project. The have to be classified into different categories through stakeholder analysis. Classifying them helps the organization to develop successful strategies for enhancing the relationships (Joyce & JOYCE, 1999, p. 34).
below is a classification of the internal and external stakeholders, the influence/interest grid and stakeholders influence diagram for this project of developing strategic leadership in public institutions.

An Experimental Study of Persuasive
Social Communication
JOHN BARRY RYAN
Political discussion is often seen as a potential shortcut to enlightened voting. If unin-
formed individuals receive useful information from their discussion partners, then they
can make quality decisions at the ballot box without incurring the costs of becoming
informed. Discussion partners, however, have biases and these biases are reflected in
what they say about candidates. If individuals accept messages from sources with differ-
ent preferences, they could end up supporting candidates who benefit their discussion
partners instead of themselves. This article argues that egos will often accept messages
from individuals with an incentive to mislead. Instead of evaluating the messenger,
individuals evaluate the messages. When the messages are all in accord, individuals
support the candidate suggested by the messages even if the messengers are all biased.
This article presents the results of a group-based experiment in which ego networks
were exogenously determined by the researcher. In the experiment, egos tend to vote for
their party’s candidate, but they defect with greater frequency when they receive mes-
sages from members of a different party. This willingness to listen to the other side has
detrimental effects for the quality of their decisions.
Keywords social networks, correct voting, experiments
It may not be polite to discuss politics, but many people constantly talk about politics at
home, in their businesses, and while they have an evening out. Many people are talking and
on occasion they are persuading others to choose a different candidate. It is well established
that discussion can affect how people view candidates and ultimately how people vote (e.g.,
Berelson, Lazarsfeld, & McPhee, 1954; Huckfeldt & Sprague, 1995). Research also shows
that discussion can lead voters to choose candidates who are not from their party (Beck,
2002; Ryan, 2010). This is a curious finding given that individuals should be able to dismiss
political messages from individuals who are not likeminded. Individuals who have different
political values will view political events differently (Gerber & Green, 1999). This should
allow someone to discount the messages sent by a source with divergent preferences, even
if one believes the discussion partner is totally sincere in his or her messages.

A type of mixed studies model is an integrated design (Sandelowski
et al., 2007), which can be used when qualitative
and quantitative findings in an area of inquiry are
perceived as able to confirm, extend, or refute each
other. In an integrated design, studies are grouped not
by method but by findings viewed as answering the
same research question. The analytic approach may
involve transforming the findings (qualitizing quantitative
findings or quantitizing qualitative findings) to
enable them to be combined. A particularly sophisticated
variant of this model is to use a Bayesian
synthesis, as exemplified in a study in which

In drawing conclusions about a research synthesis,
a major issue concerns the nature of the decisions
the researcher made. Sampling decisions, approaches
to handling quality of the primary studies, and analytic
approaches should be carefully evaluated to
assess the soundness of the reviewers’ conclusions.
Another aspect, however, is drawing inferences about
how you might use the evidence in clinical practice.
Examples of critique:
Example 1: A Meta-Analysis
Study: Meta-analysis of quality-of-life outcomes from
physical activity interventions (Conn et al., 2009).
Purpose: The purpose of the meta-analysis was to integrate
research evidence on the effects of physical activity
(PA) on quality of life (QOL) outcomes among
adults with chronic illness. Two of the specific research
questions addressed were: (a) What is the overall mean
difference effect size (ES) in QOL scores between
treatment and control subjects after interventions to
increase PA? (b) Do the effects of PA interventions on
QOL outcomes vary depending on the characteristics
of participants, methodology, or interventions?
Eligibility Criteria: Criteria for study inclusion were
spelled out in Table 1 of the report, together with an
explicit rationale for each criterion. A study was
included if it examined the effects of a PA intervention
on QOL for people with a chronic illness and if it:
(a) was an English-language study, (b) was published
in a report after 1970, (c) involved a sample of at least
5 subjects, and (d) included measures designed
specifically to assess QOL (not, for example, QOLrelated
constructs such as mood). Both published and
unpublished reports were eligible, and diverse
research designs were permitted (not just RCTs).
Search Strategy: A reference librarian performed
searches, using well-specified search terms, in 11 databases
(e.g., MEDLINE, CINAHL, Dissertation
Abstracts, Scopus, PsycINFO). The National Institutes
of Health database of funded studies was also searched.
Ancestry searching was conducted, a.

Policies to Assist Parents with
Young Children
Christopher J. Ruhm
Summary
The struggle to balance work responsibilities with family obligations may be most difficult for
working parents of the youngest children, those five and under. Any policy changes designed to
ease the difficulties for these families are likely to be controversial, requiring a careful effort to
weigh both the costs and benefits of possible interventions while respecting diverse and at times
conflicting American values. In this article, Christopher Ruhm looks at two potential interven-
tions—parental leave and early childhood education and care (ECEC)—comparing differences
in policies in the United States, Canada, and several European nations and assessing their
consequences for important parent and child outcomes.
By and large, Canadian and European policies are more generous than those in the United
States, with most women eligible for paid maternity leave, which in a few countries can last for
three years or more. Many of these countries also provide for paid leave that can be used by
either the mother or the father. And in many European countries ECEC programs are nearly
universal after the child reaches a certain age. In the United States, parental leave, if it is avail-
able, is usually short and unpaid, and ECEC is generally regarded as a private responsibility of
parents, although some federal programs help defray costs of care and preschool education.
Ruhm notes that research on the effects of differences in policies is not completely conclusive,
in part because of the difficulty of isolating consequences of leave and ECEC policies from
other influences on employment and children’s outcomes. But, he says, the comparative evi-
dence does suggest desirable directions for future policy in the United States. Policies establish-
ing rights to short parental leaves increase time at home with infants and slightly improve the
job continuity of mothers, with small, but positive, long-run consequences for mothers and
children. Therefore, Ruhm indicates that moderate extensions of existing U.S. leave entitle-
ments (up to several months in duration) make sense. He also suggests that some form of paid
leave would facilitate its use, particularly among less advantaged parents, and that efforts to
improve the quality of ECEC, while maintaining or enhancing affordability, are desirable.

nergy comes in many forms. In most industrial nations, coal,
oil, and natural gas are the predominant fuels. These non-
renewable forms of energy are the lifeblood of modern indus-
trial societies, but they are also a potential Achilles’ heel. If you
cut the supply off for even a brief moment, industry would come
to a standstill. Agriculture and mining would halt. Millions would
be out of work. Automobiles would vanish from city streets. Al-
most everything in our homes would cease to operate. In addition,
as the Gulf oil spill in 2010 showed, our dependence on these
fuels can be extremely costly!
Many of the less developed nations have pinned their hopes for
economic progress on their ability to tap into oil, coal, natural gas,
and to a lesser extent nuclear power, which have fueled the indus-

Introduction Paragraph
According to historical records and evidence, since the end of WWII US has involved her military in over 60 military actions in countries such as Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Panama, Haiti, Kuwait, Pakistan, Bosnia among other countries across the globe. In this respect, American presidents have used their power and authority with the approval of the congress to send and dispatch American troops to engage in military functions such as engaging in attacks and bombing of groups that are pose threat to world peace. Although more often than not, U.S military operations on international level have received a lot of criticism across board it can be argued that U.S has a long history of overseas military operations as tries to maintain its superiority thus currently its military operation plays an important role across boundaries all over the globe (Heitmeyer, 2011).

Scene 1
Amanda and Dr. Ryan standing in Dr. Ryan’s office.
POL110_9_1_DR-1.mp3: Hello again. It’s good to see you here for the last week of your internship. We only have a few more topics to cover before you’re ready to move on.
Last week we examined the role that the president plays in the decisionmaking process. This week we will look at the bureaucracy and the judiciary, two completely different institutions that are absolutely necessary for our democracy to work.
What do you think about these institutions, Amanda?
POL110_9_1_AI-1.mp3: Well Dr. Ryan, I know some of this from my readings. Unique among other democracies, America’s bureaucracy is distinctive. This is because political authority over it is shared by the executive and legislative branches. This encourages it to play each branch off against the other.
Secondly, in the U.S., federal bureaucrats pay other agencies at the state and local levels, as well as business firms and non-profit agencies, to administer government programs.
POL110_9_1_DR-2.mp3: Good start. Now let’s look at the bureaucracy’s growth. It began small, of course, but exploded first during World War I from 1917 to 1919. This was because of the role the government took in the post-war growing economy.
Then, a little more than a decade later under Roosevelt’s New Deal it became even larger. This was because of the expansion of federal programs like welfare and Social Security. Roosevelt later invoked the income tax policy during World War II and was collecting a huge amount of money by the end of the war.
As you can imagine, this required a substantial increase in federal workers to keep track of these revenues. This money was used to start a great many additional programs which, in turn, required more administrators.
POL110_9_1_AI-2.mp3: That very interesting! I think that the federal bureaucracy, numbering just about two and one-half million people today, is now at the same level it was in 1955. In fact, it’s shrunk since then, relative to the population of over three hundred million Americans whom it now serves.
Slide 3
Interaction Slide
This will be an interaction that showcases various facts about the distinctiveness of the American bureaucracy.
Button 1: Political authority. Political authority over the bureaucracy is shared between the presidency and Congress. This means that bureaucrats are able to play each branch against the other. In parliamentary governments, like Great Britian, the prime minister and cabinet control the bureaucracy.
Button 2: Shared functions. Most federal.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptx
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
