Learning Activity #1Joe Jackson owned a sawmill in Stuttgart, Arka.docx
Learning Activity #1
Joe Jackson owned a sawmill in Stuttgart, Arkansas. It was a family business that had not changed in 50 years. Having grown up in the business, Joe had never really investigated the strengths and weaknesses of his position as Vice President. His father was always the President and he and his older brother Jacob were the heirs. The business was in turmoil because his father’s health was precarious and he was forced to step down. Joe’s brother was expecting to step up to the role of Vice President but Joe knew that was a mistake. The business itself was being quickly eroded because of the sustainability issues facing the world. Joe could see this but not Jacob. Joe needed to have a long talk with Jacob to make him see reason. Either they worked together for the future or Joe would have to take the lead role.
TASK:
Prepare an outline of points for Joe to make in his discussion with his brother. Explain the role of the 21
st
century leader and why it differs from that of the 20
th
century leader. Make sure to reference your reading material to validate the points you make.

TASK:
After reading the background information below, explain what you think Dean Adams’ role should be in light of this quote; the leaders or the manager’s? Identify the two roles leader and manager. Be sure to include in your comments the different solutions that may result from a leader's perspective and that of the manager's perspective as well as where they overlap. Finally, suggest which role’s perspective is best for Adam and the organization and why.
Background: Studer International
At 7:30
a.m.,
Dean Adams hit the snooze alarm for the third time, but he knew he could never go back to sleep. Rubbing his eyes and shaking off a headache, Adams first checked his BlackBerry and read an urgent message from his boss, explaining that Sue Chan, chief security analyst, had resigned this morning and needed to be replaced immediately. Frustrated, Adams lumbered toward the shower, hoping it would energize him to face another day. After last night’s management meeting, which had ended after midnight, he was reeling from the news that his Wall Street employer, Studer International, was spiraling toward a financial meltdown.
Adams scratched his head and wondered, “How could one of the world’s largest insurance companies plummet from being the gold standard in the industry to one struggling for survival?” At the end of 2007, Studer had $100 billion in annual revenues, 65 million customers, and 96,000 employees in 130 countries. One year later and staggered by losses stemming from the credit crisis, Studer teetered on the brink of failure and was in need of emergency government assistance. .

Law enforcement in America has seen drastic changes over the past on.docx
Law enforcement in America has seen drastic changes over the past one hundred years, from the educational requirements of officers to the interpretation of the bill of rights. Law enforcement officers today are expected to perform their duties at a very high level of professionalism and morality. Unfortunately, when officers don’t perform at this high level it is their commanders who ultimately may be held responsible for their actions. Use your textbook, the Internet, and / or Strayer library to research credible sources on the aforementioned issues as they relate to law enforcement operations and management.
Write a five to seven (5-7) page paper in which you:
Examine the higher (postsecondary education) requirements that police hiring agencies have for potential candidates. Support or critique the requirement that officers possess such an education.
Compare and contrast the fundamental differences between arrest and searches and seizures conducted with and without warrants. Provide a rationale for why these areas are important as they relate to the Bill of Rights and Fourth Amendment guarantees.
Compare and contrast the main ways in which Packard’s crime-control model and the due process model differ in the matter of police ethics. Provide your opinion on which of the two (2) approaches lends itself to the possibility of ethical violations in law enforcement?
Hypothesize two (2) situations where police supervisors may be held criminally liable for their officers’ misconduct.
Use at least four (4) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
Illustrate the constraints on the police in democratic societies to include personal issues and practices, the rule of law, general principles of accountability, ethics, and civil liability.
Assess management and leadership challenges in police organizations and recommend solutions that foster an ethical work environment.
Use technology and information resources to research issues in law enforcement operations and management.
Write clearly and concisely about law enforcement operations and management using proper writing mechanics.

Lawrence Bodine is employed by Baylor Health Systems.During the .docx
Lawrence Bodine is employed by Baylor Health Systems.
During the month of June, Lawrence worked 195 hours.
15 of these hours were overtime, and were required to be paid at 150% of the normal hourly rate.
Lawrence's hourly rate is $12.
Lawrence is single, and had $400 of federal income tax withheld from his pay.
Baylor is in a state without an income tax.
Lawrence's pay is subject to social security taxes at an (assumed) 6.5% rate and Medicare/Medicaid at an (assumed) 1.5% rate.
He has not exceeded the annual base for social security taxes.
Baylor pays for workers' compensation insurance at a 4% rate.
None of this cost is paid by the employee.
Baylor provides its employees with health care insurance, and pays 90% of the $500 per employee monthly premium.
The other 10% is paid by employees via payroll withholdings.
Lawrence participates in a tax-sheltered deferred savings plan and has 8% of his gross pay withheld each month.
Baylor Health Systems provides a 75% matching contribution.
In other words, for every dollar that Lawrence saves, Baylor will contribute an additional 75 cents.
Baylor's payroll is subject to federal (0.5%) and state (1.5%) unemployment taxes on each employee's gross pay, up to $8,000 per year.
Lawrence had $6,000 of gross earnings in the months prior to June.
Lawrence participates in the Community Chest fund drive each month, via a $25 contribution that is withheld from his pay.

Late on a Friday afternoon, you learn that the facilities department.docx
Late on a Friday afternoon, you learn that the facilities department is going to move you – and your computer, desk, and all of your files – to another office first thing Monday morning. However, you have an important client meeting scheduled for Monday afternoon in your office, and you need to finalize some contract details on Monday morning. You simply can't lose access to your office at this point, and you are more than a little annoyed that your boss didn't ask you before approving the move. He has already left for the day, but you know he usually checks his voicemail over the weekend so you decide to leave him a message asking him to cancel the move or at least call you at home as soon as possible. Using the voicemail guidelines in Table 2.5 in Chapter 2, develop a script of the message to your boss that is 150 to 200 words and formatted according to APA style guidelines

Leadership and decision making are influenced by the culture of t.docx
“
Leadership and decision making are influenced by the culture of the society in which an individual operates. Cultures vary by country and sometimes within a country. Government managers normally conform to their countries' culture, and their decision making naturally reflects this culture. However, some government managers are assigned tasks in other countries. Diplomats are an example. International IGOs and NGOs operate in different cultures and are often staffed by managers from different countries.
Answer the following questions
Why must Public-sector managers on international assignments understand the way local culture affects leadership and decision making and the way it influences people within their organization?”
Provide specifics of how misunderstanding certain cultural aspects in a particular country could have adverse consequences?
Must pick a specific country other than J

LASA 2: Analyzing a Social Policy
In this course, you have learned that social policies are formulated to solve social problems considered important by a mass of voters, media, and political actors. Social policy is but one solution to the problem—not necessarily the most rational, effective, or socially just. Social policies are human creations and, as such, can be changed. In this paper you will analyze a social policy as a tool for social justice.
Research one social welfare policy using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet.
Analyze the policy and address the following:
The social problem addressed by the policy
What is/are the problem/s to be solved in the most fundamental terms?
What is the history of the problem/s in the United States?
What are the various theories about the causes of the problem/s? Based on this, what do you think is/are the most important causes/s of the problem/s?
The policy objectives, value premises, expectation, and target populations
Policy objectives—overt and covert objectives: What are the stated objectives of the policy? In your judgment, what are the covert objectives of the policy?
What are the values underlying the policy objectives? What values are revealed by the overt and covert objectives?
What did the policymakers expect would be the result of the policy?
Target segments of the population at whom policy is aimed: Discuss the direct target of the policy in terms of size and other demographic characteristics. Who are the indirect targets of the policy?
Effects of the policy
Intended effects: What effects did the lawmakers intend?
Unintended effects: What effects did the lawmakers not foresee?
Distinguish between short-range (less than five years) and long-range (over five years) effects of the policy.
Implications of the Policy
Changes in the distribution of material resources: Are there any changes to the distribution of material resources, including income and other tangible benefits, as a result of the policy for direct or indirect target groups?
Changes in distribution of services, rights, and statuses: Are there any changes in services, rights, or statuses as a result of the policy?
Alternative Policies
What alternative policy/policies would more effectively address the social problem discussed in the policy analysis while advancing social justice?
Write a 4–6-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Make sure to include research in addition to the textbook from credible, scholarly sources.

Law enforcement in America has seen drastic changes over the past on.docx
Law enforcement in America has seen drastic changes over the past one hundred years, from the educational requirements of officers to the interpretation of the bill of rights. Law enforcement officers today are expected to perform their duties at a very high level of professionalism and morality. Unfortunately, when officers don’t perform at this high level it is their commanders who ultimately may be held responsible for their actions. Use your textbook, the Internet, and / or Strayer library to research credible sources on the aforementioned issues as they relate to law enforcement operations and management.
Write a five to seven (5-7) page paper in which you:
Examine the higher (postsecondary education) requirements that police hiring agencies have for potential candidates. Support or critique the requirement that officers possess such an education.
Compare and contrast the fundamental differences between arrest and searches and seizures conducted with and without warrants. Provide a rationale for why these areas are important as they relate to the Bill of Rights and Fourth Amendment guarantees.
Compare and contrast the main ways in which Packard’s crime-control model and the due process model differ in the matter of police ethics. Provide your opinion on which of the two (2) approaches lends itself to the possibility of ethical violations in law enforcement?
Hypothesize two (2) situations where police supervisors may be held criminally liable for their officers’ misconduct.
Use at least four (4) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

Lawrence Bodine is employed by Baylor Health Systems.During the .docx
Lawrence Bodine is employed by Baylor Health Systems.
During the month of June, Lawrence worked 195 hours.
15 of these hours were overtime, and were required to be paid at 150% of the normal hourly rate.
Lawrence's hourly rate is $12.
Lawrence is single, and had $400 of federal income tax withheld from his pay.
Baylor is in a state without an income tax.
Lawrence's pay is subject to social security taxes at an (assumed) 6.5% rate and Medicare/Medicaid at an (assumed) 1.5% rate.
He has not exceeded the annual base for social security taxes.
Baylor pays for workers' compensation insurance at a 4% rate.
None of this cost is paid by the employee.
Baylor provides its employees with health care insurance, and pays 90% of the $500 per employee monthly premium.
The other 10% is paid by employees via payroll withholdings.
Lawrence participates in a tax-sheltered deferred savings plan and has 8% of his gross pay withheld each month.
Baylor Health Systems provides a 75% matching contribution.
In other words, for every dollar that Lawrence saves, Baylor will contribute an additional 75 cents.
Baylor's payroll is subject to federal (0.5%) and state (1.5%) unemployment taxes on each employee's gross pay, up to $8,000 per year.
Lawrence had $6,000 of gross earnings in the months prior to June.
Lawrence participates in the Community Chest fund drive each month, via a $25 contribution that is withheld from his pay.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
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.

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.
