Learning and behavioral difficulties
In reinforcing learners in Individualized Educational Programs(IEPs), educators will assist in shaping the behaviors of the students, as well as, becoming more self-sufficient (Bambara, Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). The students’ educational needs are met in areas, such as reading, writing, math, adaptive living, and science. The objective is to meet the learners' needs via creating a plan that will effectively ensure the students’ educational and behavioral level are met or exceeded (Tyner, 2014).

Project-based learning
The fact that learning is achieved through a number of ways best explains why different methods are tested in order to know the best method that can be applied. Project-based learning is thought to be a solution used to improve students’ state assessment scores when relating to the Common Core State Standards especially in comprehending non-fiction text. However, this method has to be tested in order to be recommended.
Purpose of the study
This study is meant to get the best data collection tool that can be used in a research. Before making any decision on what learning and teaching method to be used in teaching non-fiction texts, it is important to understand how each method works and how it can be used to improve learning. In order to be sure about how a method works, one needs to experiment or collect data that will be used as a base for making conclusions (Eodice, Geller, & Lerner, 2017). The purpose of this study is thus to provide the best data collection tool to be used in getting information that can be used in making viable conclusions.
The research question is; Will the inclusion of project-based learning improve student application of comprehending non-fiction text at a high depth of knowledge level?
Data collection
The researcher will use a number of data collection tools in order to recommend this learning method. The data needed should be quantitative so as to give the researcher the way forward to make a decision. One of the data collection tools to be used is the pre-test and post-tests. This is a type of experiment that will use two groups; where one group is given a treatment while the other group is left to be the control group.
In this sort of experiment, the researcher will collect a random number of people from the community who can be able to read and write. The people will be divided into two groups, the test group, and the control group. The conditions for the test will be set and the treatment applied to the test group. The control group will not be given treatment and after a given period of time, the researcher will collect the results. The results will measure ow the treatment affected the group as differentiated by the control group. The result from the group will be recorded exactly depending on the number of people who participated and how the experiment affected each one of them. This can enable the researcher to know whether the method can be used to improve student assessment.
Another data collection tool that can be used is interviewing (Phillips & Stawarski, 2016). The researcher can organize for short and structured interviews. The interviews should have a given number of people and the result expected sh.

No use of technology
After several hours of observation I notice several teachers were not reinforcing the students while charting their data. If the students did not get the correct answer right the first time the teachers would mark (E) for error and move on to the next learning objective. There was no reintroducing the learning concept or trying a different learning alternative to probe the students to get the correct answers. There was no use of technology tools to help aid in the learning process

In the school where the intervention was to be implemented, it was noted that the students could be subdivided into three basic groups. The first consisted of children who were proficient in verbal communication, however, they exhibited several behaviors that were disruptive. The second group included students who were unable to speak and in terms of behavior exhibited behavior that could cause harm to both the educators and themselves. The last group consisted of students who had basic communication skills and they could express or communicate their needs thereby being less difficult.

Video Analysis
The beginning of the video was helpful because it made me realize completing a project brings many rewards. The narrator talks about having discipline, which is essential, and that includes managing time, maintaining quality, and embracing both negative and positive changes. The experiences expressed in this first portion reveal the value of finishing a project. According to the narrator, working with like-minded people was inspiring (Sfedfundorg, 2008). Individuals that share ideas and perceptions despite their difference deliver beyond expectation. The second helpful portion was how the narrator identified her scope of research. Her approach made me realize that narrowing down individual options to a particular area improves the quality of information gathered. The third informative portion was where the narrator explains the impacts her new strategy had on her teaching. According to the narrator, her technique has made her more of an educator than a teacher (Sfedfundorg, 2008). The transformation manifests in her student’s improved academic performances and the fact that they have enough confidence while taking tests. Ideally, it helped me understand that tutors can make a difference to a student's education if they employ suitable strategies. Additionally, any utilized method affects how one teaches, sets tests, or prepares learners for examinations (Mills, 2000). The approach also helped me comprehend that the most critical aspect a teacher can give a student is confidence. If one believes in themselves and what they can accomplish, they will succeed even beyond the academic field.
Data Collection
One significant factor an individual should consider when collecting data via interviews includes the questions asked. Some queries might be intrusive enough to make the interviewee feel uncomfortable. At such a state, a person cannot gather relevant data or acquire the exact information. The second valuable element includes the tools used to collect data during interviews. Many options exist, including a tape recorder, notebook, or a plan book as scholars suggest (Rockford, n.d.). At times, an interviewer requires more than one recording tool to store information hence the need for considering the apparatus to use. A third consideration involves whether to interview people formally or informally. The former entails using structured questions, while the latter demands a casual conversation. Under data collections, an interviewer must consider whether to settle for digital tools like recorders and videos or traditional mechanisms like note-taking. Modern methods have proven effective because they allow the interviewer to focus on the interviewees' responses. The approaches, especially video re.

Effects of in cooperating Project based Learning in the school curriculum
Introduction
Learning is determined by a number of factors, some of which are environmental related while others are not. The approach of teaching is one of the major determinants of learning as far classroom learning is concerned, however there has been a concern that the current approaches to learning are a little too abstract. Lack of real life scenarios and too much theory has been responsible for the growing apathy towards learning. It is for this reason that studies are being contacted to see if the change in tact can improve learning. One of the suggested ways is the project based learning approach which uses non fictional concepts for teaching.
Purpose of the study
The purpose of this study is to find out the effects of in cooperating project based learning in the school curriculum. The study seeks to ascertain if there is any relationship between projects based learning and the improvement in scores for students (Daniel 2012). Previous studies have shown that students are likely to improve in cases where some form of simulation or use of no fictional material. According to these, the use of non fictional approaches stimulates the students to look at issues from the reality perspective hence making it easy to internalize whatever they are learning for the sake of being able to remember, however these studies have not clearly explained the actual relationships that exist between the performance and the project based learning. There are other factors which could have in for the findings to be so, for those studies, this study would critically examine the direct impact that project based learning has on students.
Research questions
1. Will the incorporation of project based learning improve students state assessment scores as it relates to the common core state standards in comprehending non fiction text?
2. Will the inclusion of project based learning improve student application of comprehending non fictional text at a high depth of learning level?
3. How does project based learning integrate clear expectations and essential criteria and remain successful
In research, data is an important factor because it is the one which determines the findings and recommendations for the, decisions to be made (Peter 2011). The main data collection methods will be observation, interviews and artifacts, questionnaires will also be used to collect data concerning the stakeholders. Observation will be effective tools for confirming how students behave in classes, when the various approaches are used. Students will be observed in a classroom setting and comparisons be made between those classes that imp.

Here is a helpful hint on how to go about responding to question 5.
For example let’s say you are asked to determine that the useful lives and salvage values of the computers are reasonable. A possible response would be to inquire about how the useful lives and salvage values of the computers were determined and then compare the estimated useful lives and salvage values of these computers with comparable computers used in other divisions or functional areas of the company.

1) Most frauds are detected by internal auditors.
2) Evidence from within the company is considered more reliable than evidence obtained from third parties
3) The internal auditor has no role in fraud prevention or detection
4) Confirmation involves examining trends and relationship among financial and non-financial data
5) Expertise within the internal auditing department is a barrier to implementing data analysis technologies

Re:Constructing 10 Strategic Points
Hello Elizabeth-
I am so glad that you worked on this over the weekend and sent it to me in advance. What you have done -- and this happens with a few students every class -- is propose an interesting future study on incivility in higher ed. However, the guidelines for this assignment limit the scope to a replication of the 2007 Clark and Springer study. This means that many of the elements of the 10 Strategic Points (e.g., problem statement, research questions, purpose statement, data colection, data analysis) should be exactly the same as the Week 2 strategic points except with a population of undergraduate psychology students and faculty.
For example, the correct phrasing of the Week 2 problem statement that I provided you was "It is not known what the possible causes and remedies are of incivility in nursing education in a university environment from both student and faculty perspectives." For the Week 5 assignment, you would use the problem statement verbatim but just change "nursing ed.

ICT promote autonomy among ESL/EFL learners: myth or reality?engedukamall
Thang, S. M. (2014, September). ICT promote autonomy among ESL/EFL learners: myth or reality?. Paper presented at the meeting of KAMALL Annual Conference 2014, Seoul, Korea.
[Abstract]
There is this general belief that the introduction of Information
Communication Technologies (ICT) into classrooms will foster autonomy
among English as a Second language (ESL) and English as a Foreign language
(EFL) learners and this has led to its rapid proliferation in English language
classrooms in most Asian countries. However, to what extent this claim is true
needs to be carefully investigated and the factors leading to its successful
adoption which culminates in autonomy among ESL/ EFL learners and factors
that resulted in failure in adoption need to be identified and deliberated.
There must be an awareness that that the implementation of technology is
not a “panacea for all ills” and its presence will not magically lead to a boost
in student learning or achievement. Despite the plethora of research
undertaken on effects of ICT on ESL/EFL learners there is still a lot that needs
to be learned as most studies undertaken tend to explore the short-term
effects of ICT on language learning and fail to consider the long term effects.
Autonomy cannot be achieved in a short period of time. Hence there is a need
to look into the long term effects which many research studies fail to do.
According to Holec, (1981) autonomous learning has to do with a person’s
ability to take full responsibility of his or her own learning. That includes the
ability to decide what, when, how and for how long learning should take
place. This involves defining goals and objectives, selecting appropriate
materials, techniques and approaches, and finally evaluating outcomes. How
can ICT help students acquire such skills and what are the teachers’ roles in
the process? This paper will attempt to provide a balance view on the effects
of ICT on language learning and the promotion of autonomy through a review
of relevant literature and research studies. Finally, it will answer the question
posed in the title and in the process offers suggestions on how autonomy can
be successful promoted and fostered in an online environment through the use
of technology. Possible methods that can possibly contribute to the successful
promotion of autonomy in online environment include providing: (1) stimulating and interesting online materials; (2) online programs to develop self-regulated
learning strategies; (3) scaffolding in the form of instruction on resources to use
and guidelines on appropriate path to choose; (4) regular assessment tasks for
students to measure their own progress on an ongoing basis. In addition,
online platforms that offer opportunities for sharing of information and
undertaking of group activities or projects are also good avenues to develop
autonomy. Studies that implement such approaches well as others will be
reviewed and discussed.

Week 6: Refining the Problem and Purpose Statement Comment by Beryl Watnick: Week 8
Emerging New Technologies in Early Childhood Education
Technological revolutions have transformed early childhood education significantly.These developments have eased the tasks of instructors who had challenges related to delivering high-quality education. Aydin et al. (2017) found in their study that both the curriculum and instructional methods have weaknesses that significantly reduce education quality in early childhood schools. For instance, the authors found that the ratio of teachers to students is lower than required, which implies that there are more students per teacher. Consequently, the teachers cannot comprehensively deliver customized instructions to all students effectively due to time constraints. The authors recommend the use of technology, and employment of more teachers to increase instructional quality by increasing the time taken to teach each student according to their learning and developmental needs. In that regard, Dziuban et al. (2018) discuss raise concerns that there are many challenges in early childhood education (ECE). They include ineffective instructional methods, substandard learning environments, and inappropriate content that do not effectively support children's learning and developmental needs. The authors propose the use of technologies to promote quality education and growth in early childhood education. Comment by Beryl Watnick: Really? Where is there evidence for this statement? Comment by Beryl Watnick: grammar
Samudra et al. (2019) argue that the use of technology has not been used to the required potential to improve learners’ needs in early childhood education settings. For instance, the authors found that technological devices have the potential to increase children's developmental and educational needs. In this regard, the authors recommend the use of technological devices including tablets and computers to teach children. The authors researched and found that audiovisual learning devices increase interactive learning, which is associated with high engagement and high performance. Comment by Beryl Watnick: That is obvious, isn’t it?
Research Problem
The problem is that many early year teachers in the current education sector do not have enough ICT equipment and expertise at their disposal to adequately deliver holistic instruction to early year learners. The quality of instruction is not increasing regardless of the increasing advancements in technology. According to Aydin et al. (2017), changes are continuing to be noticed in classroom populations, and in performance. For instance, the number of immigrants has increased significantly, which implies that there is a crucial need to apply effective and appropriate instructional approaches. Additionally, there has been a disproportional improvement in instructi ...
Educational Data Mining is used to predict the future learning behavior of the student. It is still a research topic for the researcher who wants do better result from the prediction of the student. The results of all these techniques help the teachers, management, and administrator to draft new rules and policy for the improvement of the educational standards and hence overall results and student retention. Taking this point in mind work has been done to find the slow learner in a High School class and then provide timely help to them for improving their overall result. There are lots of techniques of data mining are available for use but we are selecting only those techniques which are mostly used by different research for their result prediction like J48, REPTree, Naive Bayes, SMO, Multilayer Perceptron.

Question 1The Uniform Commercial Code incorporates some of the s.docxmakdul
Question 1
The Uniform Commercial Code incorporates some of the same elements as the Statute of Frauds. Under the Statute of Frauds, certain contracts must be in writing to be enforceable. Research the types of contracts that must be in writing under the Statute of Frauds.
Do you agree with the contracts that need to be in writing and explain why or why not? Imagine that you were asked to be part of a team to draft revisions to the Statute of Frauds. What changes or proposals would you make? Why?
Respond to this… The Statute of Frauds requires that certain types of contracts be in writing to be able to be enforced. These types of contracts include goods that are priced at $500 or more, interest in land, promises to pay off debt, and contracts that cannot be performed within one year, all of which have been signed by the defendant to be enforceable. I do think that all of these contracts should be in writing because it is a type of safeguard of the resource to ensure that each party is responsible for whatever the contract is regarding. For example, if we did not have to sign for a car loan, the responsible party that needs to pay the loan back could walk away, and without a signature of agreement to the terms of the loan, it would be hard for the company to fight for their money, as there is no signature enforcing the agreement.
If I had to revise something with the Statute of Frauds, I would change the contacts that cannot be performed within one year. I think one year is a long time to let a contract slide. I feel that six months sounds more reasonable. I guess if I was a business and I did not get commitment to a contract for a whole year, I feel this would greatly affect my business. I also think it might be a harder fight to get whatever the other party is responsible for as it was a year ago. As a business, I think I would want to pursue a breach of contract in three or four months even. That is a long time to not pay up.
Question 2
Let’s assume that you are interested in doing a statistical survey and you use confidence intervals for your conclusion. Describe a possible scenario and indicate what the population is, and what measure of the population you would try to estimate (proportion or mean) by using a sample.
· What is your estimate of the population size?
· What sample size will you use?
· How will you gather information for your sample?
· What confidence percentage will you use?
Let’s assume that you have completed the survey and now state your results using a confidence interval statement. You can make up the numbers based on a reasonable result.

Students I Desire to Serve
The students I desire to serve are elementary school age students with learning disabilities. In most cases, students who have difficulty with reading and math skills feel isolated, miss instruction, and often fall behind in their academics. From personal experience, I know how important it is for students with disabilities to have the same educational opportunities as anyone else. My great-aunt was withdrawn from school when she first started. After consulting a doctor, it was determined she had a disability. The school felt it would be better if she were home-schooled since the personnel could not provide the services she needed. Her parents tried their best to instruct her, but she never held a job and was not able to stay by herself. After her parents died, her sisters took care of her until she died. The family does not talk about any aspect of her life to this day. Therefore, I have often wondered what her life would have been like if she would have received an appropriate public education (Murdick, Gartin, & Crabtree, 2007).
Instructional Strategies
Students with learning disabilities often have difficulties with vocabulary. McGear, McFloyd, Dichalek, and Bobzien (2012) presented an instructional strategy called Olympic Hurdles to address problems reading sight words in third grade students with learning disabilities in a resource room. Each of the participants in the study had a card with a hurdle track. The track contained twenty-eight cells complete with hurdlers and a flag to show the beginning and ending line. Sight words came from a high frequency word list, written on flashcards, and positioned on the track randomly. A timer began for one minute when each student started. When told to stop, the total number of words correct determined the total number of words each student could correctly read per minute. The total number of words stated correctly or self-corrected was on the data sheets as recorded by the data collectors. After each trial, the students graphed their own performance. Each student averaged 20 words per minute on the first trial. During the second trial, each student’s average words per minute decreased since new words were on the track. During the third trial, there were more words known than unknown, creating an increase in each student’s words per minute averages. It was found that the more times the track with the same words repeated, the higher the success rate in this case on average 40 words per minute for each student. The reading racetracks helped the students increase their fluency and phonics skills. By breaking down unknown words into simpler parts, students were able to sound out unknown words more effectively by looking for phonics patterns (McGear et al., 2012).
Students with learning disabilities may also respond well to computer-based interventions. Nordstrom, Haverty, and Volkswagen (201 ...
Utilizing Rubrics in Audio/Visual ProductionCorey Anderson
During the 2016-2017 school year, it became apparent to me that my students at Watkins Overton High School in Memphis, TN, might enjoy a greater sense of academic achievement if they had a better understanding of what was required to receive a rating of Proficient or Advanced when their artifacts are assessed. In the Audio/Visual Production field, these artifacts are almost always something the student must create. I am specifically interested in improving their commercials and public service announcements. Although, high school students have a lot of competing interests, providing rubrics for assignments would give them a way to focus their energy when completing projects and provide a way for them to assess the quality of their own work before submitting it for assessment. Their attention to detail and quality has further implications for post-secondary success. Rallying behind the mantra, Destination 2025! In the year, 2025, our school district’s goal is to have 80% of graduates, college and career ready, 90% graduating on time and 100% of college and career ready graduates will enroll in post-secondary opportunities (Shelby County Schools, n.d.). What tools can I actively use to help my students get the advantage in life and become champions at work? The purpose of this paper is to determine can developing and utilizing rubrics with my high school A/V Production students help improve the quality of their films for public service announcements and commercials. These are my Next Steps.
Abstract
As mobile devices become ubiquitous, healthcare practitioners are exploring how using technological support in the workplace could advance their practice, communication and learning. This paper discusses findings from a research study funded by the Higher Education Academy (HEA) in the UK, which investigated how using iPads impacted on physiotherapy and occupational therapy students’ learning, reflective practice and communication with peers and tutors during placement cycles. Similar to research carried out amongst physicians in 2009, the students found that the devices collapse ‘time and space’, because they permit users to access data and resources when moving between patients, wards and clinics (Prgoment et al., 2009). The paper also discusses how students used the iPads to interact with other professionals and patients while in hospital and community settings, as well as the usability of the devices and associated apps for improving their learning (Clay, 2010). Apps were found to be good tools for documenting individual learning histories, engaging with learning objects and developing personalised structured education (Ifenthaler & Schweinbenz, 2013). The project adopted a participatory action research approach. Eighteen student participants used iPads during their placements in a variety of settings for a period of 5 – 10 weeks. The students were supported by visiting tutors and practice educators over an eight-month period. Interviews and focus groups were conducted with students, visiting tutors and practice educators to ascertain the utility and acceptance of the devices in practice settings. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model developed by Venkatesh, V. et al. (2003) is used to analyse the acceptability and efficiency of the devices in clinical settings. In particular, the research focuses on why user acceptance is challenged by established practitioners, and why healthcare settings have not adapted their environs and infrastructure so mobile devices can be used more readily by practitioners.

ICT promote autonomy among ESL/EFL learners: myth or reality?engedukamall
Thang, S. M. (2014, September). ICT promote autonomy among ESL/EFL learners: myth or reality?. Paper presented at the meeting of KAMALL Annual Conference 2014, Seoul, Korea.
[Abstract]
There is this general belief that the introduction of Information
Communication Technologies (ICT) into classrooms will foster autonomy
among English as a Second language (ESL) and English as a Foreign language
(EFL) learners and this has led to its rapid proliferation in English language
classrooms in most Asian countries. However, to what extent this claim is true
needs to be carefully investigated and the factors leading to its successful
adoption which culminates in autonomy among ESL/ EFL learners and factors
that resulted in failure in adoption need to be identified and deliberated.
There must be an awareness that that the implementation of technology is
not a “panacea for all ills” and its presence will not magically lead to a boost
in student learning or achievement. Despite the plethora of research
undertaken on effects of ICT on ESL/EFL learners there is still a lot that needs
to be learned as most studies undertaken tend to explore the short-term
effects of ICT on language learning and fail to consider the long term effects.
Autonomy cannot be achieved in a short period of time. Hence there is a need
to look into the long term effects which many research studies fail to do.
According to Holec, (1981) autonomous learning has to do with a person’s
ability to take full responsibility of his or her own learning. That includes the
ability to decide what, when, how and for how long learning should take
place. This involves defining goals and objectives, selecting appropriate
materials, techniques and approaches, and finally evaluating outcomes. How
can ICT help students acquire such skills and what are the teachers’ roles in
the process? This paper will attempt to provide a balance view on the effects
of ICT on language learning and the promotion of autonomy through a review
of relevant literature and research studies. Finally, it will answer the question
posed in the title and in the process offers suggestions on how autonomy can
be successful promoted and fostered in an online environment through the use
of technology. Possible methods that can possibly contribute to the successful
promotion of autonomy in online environment include providing: (1) stimulating and interesting online materials; (2) online programs to develop self-regulated
learning strategies; (3) scaffolding in the form of instruction on resources to use
and guidelines on appropriate path to choose; (4) regular assessment tasks for
students to measure their own progress on an ongoing basis. In addition,
online platforms that offer opportunities for sharing of information and
undertaking of group activities or projects are also good avenues to develop
autonomy. Studies that implement such approaches well as others will be
reviewed and discussed.

Week 6: Refining the Problem and Purpose Statement Comment by Beryl Watnick: Week 8
Emerging New Technologies in Early Childhood Education
Technological revolutions have transformed early childhood education significantly.These developments have eased the tasks of instructors who had challenges related to delivering high-quality education. Aydin et al. (2017) found in their study that both the curriculum and instructional methods have weaknesses that significantly reduce education quality in early childhood schools. For instance, the authors found that the ratio of teachers to students is lower than required, which implies that there are more students per teacher. Consequently, the teachers cannot comprehensively deliver customized instructions to all students effectively due to time constraints. The authors recommend the use of technology, and employment of more teachers to increase instructional quality by increasing the time taken to teach each student according to their learning and developmental needs. In that regard, Dziuban et al. (2018) discuss raise concerns that there are many challenges in early childhood education (ECE). They include ineffective instructional methods, substandard learning environments, and inappropriate content that do not effectively support children's learning and developmental needs. The authors propose the use of technologies to promote quality education and growth in early childhood education. Comment by Beryl Watnick: Really? Where is there evidence for this statement? Comment by Beryl Watnick: grammar
Samudra et al. (2019) argue that the use of technology has not been used to the required potential to improve learners’ needs in early childhood education settings. For instance, the authors found that technological devices have the potential to increase children's developmental and educational needs. In this regard, the authors recommend the use of technological devices including tablets and computers to teach children. The authors researched and found that audiovisual learning devices increase interactive learning, which is associated with high engagement and high performance. Comment by Beryl Watnick: That is obvious, isn’t it?
Research Problem
The problem is that many early year teachers in the current education sector do not have enough ICT equipment and expertise at their disposal to adequately deliver holistic instruction to early year learners. The quality of instruction is not increasing regardless of the increasing advancements in technology. According to Aydin et al. (2017), changes are continuing to be noticed in classroom populations, and in performance. For instance, the number of immigrants has increased significantly, which implies that there is a crucial need to apply effective and appropriate instructional approaches. Additionally, there has been a disproportional improvement in instructi ...
Educational Data Mining is used to predict the future learning behavior of the student. It is still a research topic for the researcher who wants do better result from the prediction of the student. The results of all these techniques help the teachers, management, and administrator to draft new rules and policy for the improvement of the educational standards and hence overall results and student retention. Taking this point in mind work has been done to find the slow learner in a High School class and then provide timely help to them for improving their overall result. There are lots of techniques of data mining are available for use but we are selecting only those techniques which are mostly used by different research for their result prediction like J48, REPTree, Naive Bayes, SMO, Multilayer Perceptron. On the collected dataset Multilayer Perception classification algorithm gives 87.43% accuracy when using whole dataset as training dataset and SMO and J48 gives 69.00% accuracy when using 10-fold cross validation algorithm.

Assignment: Agenda Comparison Grid and Fact Sheet or Talking Points Brief
It may seem to you that healthcare has been a national topic of debate among political leaders for as long as you can remember.
Healthcare has been a policy item and a topic of debate not only in recent times but as far back as the administration of the second U.S. president, John Adams. In 1798, Adams signed legislation requiring that 20 cents per month of a sailor’s paycheck be set aside for covering their medical bills. This represented the first major piece of U.S. healthcare legislation, and the topic of healthcare has been woven into presidential agendas and political debate ever since.
As a healthcare professional, you may be called upon to provide expertise, guidance and/or opinions on healthcare matters as they are debated for inclusion into new policy. You may also be involved in planning new organizational policy and responses to changes in legislation. For all of these reasons you should be prepared to speak to national healthcare issues making the news.
In this Assignment, you will analyze recent presidential healthcare agendas. You also will prepare a fact sheet to communicate the importance of a healthcare issue and the impact on this issue of recent or proposed policy.
To Prepare:
Review the agenda priorities of the
current/sitting U.S. president and the two previous presidential administrations.

Per Fennelly (2017-182), “Why do Employees steal?” employee stealing is a multiple part operation.
Most organizations are often intolerant and impatient to verify employee’s identity and background and establish trust due to the time-consuming nature of daily assignments.
Most organizations often ignore to establish and adopt on-board ecological waste management action plans to deal with discarded materials, shredded left-over documents and magnetic media and placing fragments in isolated location.
Nonetheless, organizations must learn to support and train employers who are assigned to work and protect the organization data center, facilities and resources. Large segments of any organizations’ facility managers are often none-aggressive and choose short cuts in discharging assigned services by posting passwords on the screen and leaving confidential documents lying out on the table and uploading same document to associates, husbands, loved ones and competitors. Most authorized users within the organization are often the puniest linkage in any security operation.

Assignment:
For Paper #2, you will pick two poems on a similar theme to
compare and contrast
. Your paper will explain how the poems use some of the poetic devices we’ve been discussing to express distinct attitudes towards their common subject. It will point out the
similarities and differences
in the ways the two poems do
this
. Therefore, you will need to compare and contrast the general tones of the poems as well as how they use poetic devices to create those tones. Poetic devices you might want to consider include diction, imagery, figurative language, sound (including rhyme, alliteration, assonance, rhythm, and meter), and form.
Your
audience
for this paper is other students in the class who have read these poems. You can assume that your reader has the poems in front of him or her, so you don’t need to quote the whole poem, though a brief paraphrase might be useful. You will need to quote specific lines, phrases, or words in order to point out specific features of the poems. Your
purpose
is to help your reader see the
differences and similarities
in the two poems and, consequently, to better understand how each one works to create its particular effects or meanings.
Your paper should be
800 – 1000 words long, typed and double-spaced, with 1” margins all around

1. Compare and contrast the ways Whitman’s “To a Locomotive in
Winter
” (p. 504) and Dickinson’s “I like to see it lap the Miles” (p. 504-05) represent their common subject: a locomotive. What claims does each poem make about the locomotive? What tone or attitude is taken towards the locomotive? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?
2. Compare and contrast the ways Lovelace’s “To
Lucasta
” (p. 521) and Owens’ “
Dulce
et
Decorum
Est
” (p. 521-22) represent their common subject: war. What claims does each poem make about war? What tone or attitude is taken towards war? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?

Unit 2 Discussion Board
Deliverable Length:
150-500 words (not including references) 2 Peer Responses
Details:
The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.
At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.
The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.
A. Questions for weekly discussions and conversations (not part of the required Discussion Board assignment)
These questions can serve as the starting point for your discussions during the week. They are “thought starters,” so that you can explore some ideas associated with the discussion board and unit topics. Answers are not required, and should not be submitted with your required assignment. Answers are not graded.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Negotiations
Observation of children in their learning environment
Terms set by the DHR had to be followed
22. When the intervention is being implemented several things have
to be considered and at the top of the list is the maintenance of
the students rights (Bambara, Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). It
is important to acknowledge that these students have rights.
Secondly, the implementation of the plan is intended to make
changes in the educational prospects of these students
(Bambara, Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). Finally, the
restriction of the devices to specific sites is vital (Bambara,
26. The main resource that will be required is access to an iPad for
every student, each student will then have the opportunity to
learn in their own customized means (Kiger & Herro, 2015).

Project-based learning
The fact that learning is achieved through a number of ways
best explains why different methods are tested in order to know
the best method that can be applied. Project-based learning is
thought to be a solution used to improve students’ state
assessment scores when relating to the Common Core State
Standards especially in comprehending non-fiction text.
However, this method has to be tested in order to be
recommended.
Purpose of the study
This study is meant to get the best data collection tool that can
be used in a research. Before making any decision on what
learning and teaching method to be used in teaching non-fiction
texts, it is important to understand how each method works and
how it can be used to improve learning. In order to be sure
about how a method works, one needs to experiment or collect
data that will be used as a base for making conclusions (Eodice,
Geller, & Lerner, 2017). The purpose of this study is thus to
provide the best data collection tool to be used in getting
information that can be used in making viable conclusions.
The research question is; Will the inclusion of project-based
learning improve student application of comprehending non-
fiction text at a high depth of knowledge level?
Data collection
The researcher will use a number of data collection tools in
order to recommend this learning method. The data needed
should be quantitative so as to give the researcher the way
forward to make a decision. One of the data collection tools to
52. be used is the pre-test and post-tests. This is a type of
experiment that will use two groups; where one group is given a
treatment while the other group is left to be the control group.
In this sort of experiment, the researcher will collect a random
number of people from the community who can be able to read
and write. The people will be divided into two groups, the test
group, and the control group. The conditions for the test will be
set and the treatment applied to the test group. The control
group will not be given treatment and after a given period of
time, the researcher will collect the results. The results will
measure ow the treatment affected the group as differentiated by
the control group. The result from the group will be recorded
exactly depending on the number of people who participated
and how the experiment affected each one of them. This can
enable the researcher to know whether the method can be used
to improve student assessment.
Another data collection tool that can be used is interviewing
(Phillips & Stawarski, 2016). The researcher can organize for
short and structured interviews. The interviews should have a
given number of people and the result expected should be
quantitative. The researcher needs numbers to be able to qualify
or disqualify the thesis. The same kind of questions is asked the
all the people who participate in the interview so their
responses could be negative or positive depending on the
question given. When using interviews as data collection tools,
it is very important that the researcher observes uniformity of
interaction. This is because if some interviewees feel that they
are not dignified and their responses may not be appropriate.
Thus as much as possible, the researcher should try to balance
his or her relationship and interaction will all the people.
Interviews are much easier and better compared to pre-tests and
post-tests. This is because it can be cheap since there is no
treatment required, and there are not many conditions applied.
The results also got from interviews are straightforward and
needing no interpretations whatsoever. On the other hand, pre-
tests and post-tests provide more tangible and more concrete
53. results than any other method used to test this topic. In fact, the
results from pre-tests and post-tests will not be doubted.
Treating information from data collection tools
In most cases, a researcher may use more than one data
collecting tool in order to collect data and make viable
conclusions. The way the researcher treats the data collected
will help he or she makes good or bad conclusions. This is why
the researcher should plan on what interpretation method to be
used in order to get better results. In most cases, quantitative
data is used using tables, charts, and pie-charts. Graphs can also
be used to show the trends in the issue that is being tackled
(Pawar, 2014). These are the interpretation techniques that can
help interpret quantitative data ensuring that the researcher is
presented with percentages of the sample is in the negative and
the percent that is in the positive, the numbers and whether the
issue can be a success or not.
Conclusions
In testing whether learning method project-based learning can
be effective, it is better to use experimental techniques to
collect data. The pre-tests and post-tests can be very important
in collecting this kind of data. Interviews can also be important
in getting such data.

62. The purpose of my research proposal is to show how reinforcing
IEPs daily can alter behaviors in children with autism and
learning disabilities which in terms will help them become self-
sufficient. In reinforcing learners in Individualized Educational
Programs(IEPs), educators will assist in shaping the behaviors
of the students, as well as, becoming more self-sufficient
(Bambara, Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). Several of the
learners acquire basic needs skills, such as ironing, cooking
microwavable items, basic cleaning, and showering
independently.
This proposal does require a surplus amount of teaching and
learning. The students’ educational needs are met in areas, such
as reading, writing, math, adaptive living, and science. The
objective is to meet the learners' needs via creating a plan that
will effectively ensure the students’ educational and behavioral
level are met or exceeded (Tyner, 2014).

Explanation of Problem
Lack of reinforcement by teachers
No use of different learning techniques
No use of technology
63.
64. After several hours of observation I notice several teachers
were not reinforcing the students while charting their data. If
the students did not get the correct answer right the first time
the teachers would mark (E) for error and move on to the next
learning objective. There was no reintroducing the learning
concept or trying a different learning alternative to probe the
students to get the correct answers. There was no use of
technology tools to help aid in the learning process
3
Variables
Mixed Group of children
Verbally proficient but with behavioral difficulty
Nonspeaking children with severe behavioral difficulty
Basic speaking skills with minimal behavioral difficulty
65.
66. In the school where the intervention was to be implemented, it
was noted that the students could be subdivided into three basic
groups. The first consisted of children who were proficient in
verbal communication, however, they exhibited several
behaviors that were disruptive. The second group included
students who were unable to speak and in terms of behavior
exhibited behavior that could cause harm to both the educators
and themselves. The last group consisted of students who had
basic communication skills and they could express or
communicate their needs thereby being less difficult.

Research Questions
Qualitative Questions
Why should I consider eLearning-based training?
Can eLearning courses be customized?
What is the perspective of researcher in regards to having daily
awareness of students IEP goals?
Quantitative Questions
What are 2-3 hardware and software requirements for online
training?
67. What is the difference in researchers expectations of students
when applying IEP goals daily verses being applied over three
weeks?
68. The research questions stated before are quite measurable and
through suitable research and documentation, one will be able
to effectively answer, as well as, show an adequate amount of
data in such an area. In successfully observing the students in
their learning environment, these questions will be properly
explained as it teaches self-directed learning to students in three
units:
Setting a goal,
Taking action, and
Adjusting the plan
69. 5
Locus of Control
Being part of the intervention
Confidential Research for myself
Research Summaries
70. The main goal of being part of the intervention is the assurance
that that children are educated regardless of limitations or
disabilities (Wehmeyer, 2005). The same control can be handed
over to other educators with the same moral enthusiasm of
promoting education ((. Moreover, by collecting personal
details on the intervention the necessary changes can be applied
to ensure it complies with the conditions of the student as well
as level of understanding.
72. Advancements in technology have allowed computers to become
extremely lightweight and portable. Nonetheless, with devices
such as iPads. Students will be able to request things, and have
activities among others. This will all be provided by the
designed application known as “Proloquo” that is designed for
such activities (Brown, Dehoney, & Millichap, 2015).
This intervention provides a solution to the problem of
expression especially with children of difficult behaviors.
74. Considering that the students in the research were under the
supervision of the DHR some requirements had to be followed.
Among these rules was the use of their specific names was
prohibited in the final report. Lastly, the only means of data
collection that was allowed was observation. This was to ensure
that their privacy rights were maintained mainly because they
were minors.

76. When the intervention is being implemented several things have
to be considered and at the top of the list is the maintenance of
the students rights (Bambara, Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). It
is important to acknowledge that these students have rights.
Secondly, the implementation of the plan is intended to make
changes in the educational prospects of these students
(Bambara, Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). It is therefore
necessary to provide as much training as possible to ensure that
the intervention benefits them. This training mainly includes the
77. use of the device as well as the application. Finally, the
restriction of the devices to specific sites is vital (Bambara,
Koger, & Bartholomew, 2011). By blocking sites such as those
of social media among others it will allow the students more
time to concentrate on their education.

Timeline
Scheduled phases
Extension of training time
78. To implement to the intervention, the prospects of implementing
it at once is impossible therefore the need for stages or phases
is warranted. This will therefore affect normal classes as the
class periods will be adjusted by an extra 45 minutes that will
79. allow the students to be trained on how to use the devices as
well as run the IEPs and TBOs.
10
Statement of Resources
Access to an iPad
Access to Art and craft kits with
flashcards,
markers,
dry erase boards,
construction paper,
scissors,
glue sticks.
80.
81. When it comes to resources, some material will be needed to
make the intervention effective. The main resource that will be
required is access to an iPad for every student, each student will
then have the opportunity to learn in their own customized
means (Kiger & Herro, 2015). This will then be followed by a
learning reinforcement kit that will have the essentials such as
paper, scissors, erasers, glue sticks and flashcards among
others.
11
Data Collection
Data collection will mainly comprise of two methods
Observation
Questionnaires
82.
83. Data collection is limited to these two as they are part of the
negotiation terms that were agreed with the DHR. The rights of
the students have to be maintained therefore, by observing their
normal learning environment data can be collected on the
necessary changes. Moreover, the educators can answer
questionnaires that would measure their level of diversity when
it comes to handling children with various attributes that limit
their educational experience.
12
Continuation of Data Collection
TBO data sheets
Help with collection of
Students learning objectives
Collection of behavioral data
84.
85. TBOs allow educators to collect data from their respective
classes that would allow them to make the necessary
modifications that would benefit the children. Moreover, by
allowing the children to master their learning objectives the
data will be essential in making necessary modifications for
other institutions
13
Continuation of Data Collection
Incident Reports
Helps in the collection of behaviors with the following details
Where it happened
When it happened
Staff with the child
86.
87. Incident reports are necessary to understand why, when and
what caused the child to go out of line. This intervention is
designed to benefit the students and also the educators by
making their work simpler and have better results. Therefore by
collecting such data necessary changes can be easily
implemented in future incidences.
14
Continuation of Data Collection
Probing
This report allows the collection of data directly from the
source through
Questionnaires about the students perception of the class
If the teaching techniques was adequate
And behavior relation to the educator
88.
89. Finally, probing allows the students to be tested on what they
have learned. This is the most vital data collection process as it
involves both questionnaires and observation. It allows the
educators to benchmark the teaching techniques that have been
implemented thus ensuring the children benefit the most.
