Ideas Excels in responding to assignment.
Interesting, demonstrates sophistication of
thought. Central idea/thesis is clearly
communicated, worth developing; limited
enough to be manageable. Paper
recognizes some complexity of its thesis:
may acknowledge its contradictions,
qualifications, or limits and follow out their
logical implications. Understands and
critically evaluates its sources,
appropriately limits and defines terms.
A solid paper, responding appropriately
to assignment. Clearly states a
thesis/central idea, but may have minor
lapses in development. Begins to
acknowledge the complexity of central
idea and the possibility of other points
of view. Shows careful reading of
sources, but may not evaluate them
critically. Attempts to define terms, not
always successful.
Adequate but weaker and less
effective, possibly responding less
well to assignment. Presents central
idea in general terms, often
depending on platitudes or clichés.
Usually does not acknowledge other
views. Shows basic comprehension
of sources, perhaps with lapses in
understanding. If it defines terms,
often depends on dictionary
definition.
Does not have a clear central idea
or does not respond appropriately
to the assignment. Thesis may be
too vague or obvious to be
developed effectively. Paper may
misunderstand sources.
Does not respond to the
assignment, lacks a thesis or central
idea, and may neglect to use
sources where necessary.
Organization &
coherence
Uses a logical structure appropriate to
paper’s subject, purpose, audience, thesis,
and disciplinary field. Sophisticated
transitional sentences often develop one
idea from the previous one or identify their
logical relations. It guides the reader
through the chain of reasoning or
progression of ideas.
Shows a logical progression of ideas and
uses fairly sophisticated transitional
devices; e.g., may move from least to
more important idea. Some logical links
may be faulty, but each paragraph
clearly relates to paper’s central idea.
May list ideas or arrange them
randomly rather than using any
evident logical structure. May use
transitions, but they are likely to be
sequential (first, second, third) rather
than logic-based. While each
paragraph may relate to central idea,
logic is not always clear. Paragraphs
have topic sentences but may be
overly general, and arrangement of
sentences within paragraphs may
lack coherence.
May have random organization,
lacking internal paragraph
coherence and using few or
inappropriate transitions.
Paragraphs may lack topic
sentences or main ideas, or may be
too general or too specific to be
effective. Paragraphs may not all
relate to paper’s thesis.
No appreciable organization; lacks
transitions and coherence.

GEO-109 (Spring 2018)
Date: Jan 24, 2018
Background information:
Understanding the dynamics of complex environmental systems and the interaction of
subsystems (spheres) in our planet is very important. The system approach in the study of
the earth science, which considers the earth as a closed approximation of the natural closed
system, has extremely important implications in the usage of natural resources, waste
management and climate change studies.
1. In our day-to-day activities we rely on many things that require nonrenewable
resources. All nonrenewable resources in a closed system are limited so we have to
use them wisely.
2. When we dispose of waste, we should remember that the waste would remain in the
boundary of the earth.
Learning objectives:
A. Understanding the system approach and its use in Earth science
B. Understanding Earth as a closed system
C. The use of natural resources and society
D. Beware of the natural world (especially our surroundings)
Questions: Your answer should include detailed explanation and not just few words. Your
response should be in an essay format. If you choose to respond in a single essay each
question should be addressed in a separate paragraph.
1. A. Explain the difference between renewable and nonrenewable resources and give
five examples of each.
B. List things that you/your family relay on a day-to-day basis that requires the use
of nonrenewable natural resources? Pick three of them and explain how your life
would be changed without it and suggest an alternative renewable resource
that substitute them?
2. Have you observed any waste management/pollution issues of any sort in your
hometown? If yes explain the type of pollution, causes, possible solutions and the
Earth’s sphere(s) involved. If no, research about any pollution problem in Dayton, OH
or the surrounding cities and do the same.
3. Give two examples of open and closed systems.
4. Using examples explain how changes made in one part of a closed system (e.g. Earth)
will eventually affect other part of the system. (Don’t repeat examples from class
lecture).

General Guidance
· The coursework requires you to select and apply theories, frameworks, and concepts from the first six study units of the module.
· It is your decision as to what theories/frameworks/concepts to use to inform your answer. There is no recommended minimum or maximum number, but generally, quality of application is more important than the quantity of frameworks applied.

· You may use subheadings in your answer, but avoid excessive use of bullet points.
· Do not reiterate passages from the case study. Obviously, you will need to refer to the case, but do this as succinctly as you can.
· Evidence of relevant reading beyond the lecture slides, with appropriate application of this reading, will be rewarded. Besides textbooks, you may want to explore relevant articles from Journal of Services Marketing,Journal of Service Research, or Service Industries Journal. Other journals will haverelevant articles, but, as implied by their titles, these three focus on services.
· Include a title page, contents, and references. There is no need for an abstract or executive summary. Please number your pages.

Ideas Excels in responding to assignment.
Interesting, demonstrates sophistication of
thought. Central idea/thesis is clearly
communicated, worth developing; limited
enough to be manageable. Paper
recognizes some complexity of its thesis:
may acknowledge its contradictions,
qualifications, or limits and follow out their
logical implications. Understands and
critically evaluates its sources,
appropriately limits and defines terms.
A solid paper, responding appropriately
to assignment. Clearly states a
thesis/central idea, but may have minor
lapses in development. Begins to
acknowledge the complexity of central
idea and the possibility of other points
of view. Shows careful reading of
sources, but may not evaluate them
critically. Attempts to define terms, not
always successful.
Adequate but weaker and less
effective, possibly responding less
well to assignment. Presents central
idea in general terms, often
depending on platitudes or clichés.
Usually does not acknowledge other
views. Shows basic comprehension
of sources, perhaps with lapses in
understanding. If it defines terms,
often depends on dictionary
definition.
Does not have a clear central idea
or does not respond appropriately
to the assignment. Thesis may be
too vague or obvious to be
developed effectively. Paper may
misunderstand sources.
Does not respond to the
assignment, lacks a thesis or central
idea, and may neglect to use
sources where necessary.
Organization &
coherence
Uses a logical structure appropriate to
paper’s subject, purpose, audience, thesis,
and disciplinary field. Sophisticated
transitional sentences often develop one
idea from the previous one or identify their
logical relations. It guides the reader
through the chain of reasoning or
progression of ideas.
Shows a logical progression of ideas and
uses fairly sophisticated transitional
devices; e.g., may move from least to
more important idea. Some logical links
may be faulty, but each paragraph
clearly relates to paper’s central idea.
May list ideas or arrange them
randomly rather than using any
evident logical structure. May use
transitions, but they are likely to be
sequential (first, second, third) rather
than logic-based. While each
paragraph may relate to central idea,
logic is not always clear. Paragraphs
have topic sentences but may be
overly general, and arrangement of
sentences within paragraphs may
lack coherence.
May have random organization,
lacking internal paragraph
coherence and using few or
inappropriate transitions.
Paragraphs may lack topic
sentences or main ideas, or may be
too general or too specific to be
effective. Paragraphs may not all
relate to paper’s thesis.
No appreciable organization; lacks
transitions and coherence.

Assignment 1
GEO-109 (Spring 2018)
Date: Jan 24, 2018
Background information:
Understanding the dynamics of complex environmental systems and the interaction of
subsystems (spheres) in our planet is very important. The system approach in the study of
the earth science, which considers the earth as a closed approximation of the natural closed
system, has extremely important implications in the usage of natural resources, waste
management and climate change studies.
1. In our day-to-day activities we rely on many things that require nonrenewable
resources. All nonrenewable resources in a closed system are limited so we have to
use them wisely.
2. When we dispose of waste, we should remember that the waste would remain in the
boundary of the earth.
Learning objectives:
A. Understanding the system approach and its use in Earth science
B. Understanding Earth as a closed system
C. The use of natural resources and society
D. Beware of the natural world (especially our surroundings)
Questions: Your answer should include detailed explanation and not just few words. Your
response should be in an essay format. If you choose to respond in a single essay each
question should be addressed in a separate paragraph.
1. A. Explain the difference between renewable and nonrenewable resources and give
five examples of each.
B. List things that you/your family relay on a day-to-day basis that requires the use
of nonrenewable natural resources? Pick three of them and explain how your life
would be changed without it and suggest an alternative renewable resource
that substitute them?
2. Have you observed any waste management/pollution issues of any sort in your
hometown? If yes explain the type of pollution, causes, possible solutions and the
Earth’s sphere(s) involved. If no, research about any pollution problem in Dayton, OH
or the surrounding cities and do the same.
3. Give two examples of open and closed systems.
4. Using examples explain how changes made in one part of a closed system (e.g. Earth)
will eventually affect other part of the system. (Don’t repeat examples from class
lecture).

Enterprise Architecture Enables Processes Paper
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply your critical thinking skills and understanding of the course concepts to explain how the enterprise architecture (EA) and/or the EA program supports the other IT management processes of an organization. This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes:
· describe enterprise architecture (EA), the appropriate application of EA frameworks, and an overall ongoing EA program
· analyze and examine how enterprise architecture and enterprise systems influence, support, and enable an organization's ability to contribute to strategic decision making and to respond and adapt to the business environment
· apply EA concepts to support business requirements and identify opportunities for enterprise solutions
Assignment
As you have learned throughout the course, EAs can be used to support a wide variety of information technology management processes, and an EA program strengthens IT management activities. A well-defined and implemented EA contributes significantly to each of the phases of the systems development life cycle (SDLC). For this assignment you will write a 3-5 page paper (not counting any cover sheet or reference pages) that explains briefly what enterprise architecture (EA) is and then how it supplements and enables each of the phases of the SDLC:
· initiation/planning/concept phase
· requirements analysis phase
· design phase
· development phase
· integration and testing phase
· implementation/deployment/support/maintenance phase
You should explain how EA enables each phase, how it fits into each phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities a well-defined EA contributes that might not otherwise be available to the organization.
The use of at least two external scholarly resources (other than class materials) is required. (NOTE: More than two external resources are required to receive all possible points; see Grading Rubric below.) You should use scholarly journals (rather than Wikipedia and author-less website postings). If you need assistance with determining what a scholarly journal is, the UMUC library is a very good source of information, accessed via the following link: http://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfm. Remember to correctly cite and reference all sources using APA format.
Submit your paper in Word format via your Assignments Folder as an attached document with your last name included in the filename.

In Part 3 of the Course Project, you consider how the evidence you gathered during Part 2 can be translated into nursing practice.
Now that you have located available research on your PICOT question, you will examine what the research indicates about nursing practices. Connecting research evidence and findings to actual decisions and tasks that nurses complete in their daily practice is essentially what evidence-based practice is all about. This final component of the Course Project asks you to translate the evidence and data from your literature review into authentic practices that can be adopted to improve health care outcomes. In addition, you will also consider possible methods and strategies for disseminating evidence-based practices to your colleagues and to the broader health care field.
To prepare:
Consider Parts 1 and 2 of your Course Project. How does the research address your PICOT question?
With your PICOT question in mind, identify at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in two or more of the articles from your literature review. Consider what the evidence indicates about how this practice contributes to better outcomes.
Explore possible consequences of failing to adopt the evidence-based practice that you identified.
Consider how you would disseminate information about this evidence-based practice throughout your organization or practice setting. How would you communicate the importance of the practice?
To complete:
In a 3- to 4-page paper:
Restate your PICOT question and its significance to nursing practice.
Summarize the findings from the articles you selected for your literature review. Describe at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in the articles. Justify your response with specific references to at least 2 of the articles.
Explain how the evidence-based practice that you identified contributes to better outcomes. In addition, identify potential negative outcomes that could result from failing to use the evidence-based practice.
Outline the strategy for disseminating the evidence-based practice that you identified throughout your practice setting. Explain how you would communicate the importance of the practice to your colleagues. Describe how you would move from disseminating the information to implementing the evidence-based practice within your organization. How would you address concerns and opposition to the change in practice?It should be combined with the other two components of the Course Project and turned in as your Portfolio Assignment for this course.

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 .

Enterprise Architecture Enables Processes Paper
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply your critical thinking skills and understanding of the course concepts to explain how the enterprise architecture (EA) and/or the EA program supports the other IT management processes of an organization. This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes:
· describe enterprise architecture (EA), the appropriate application of EA frameworks, and an overall ongoing EA program
· analyze and examine how enterprise architecture and enterprise systems influence, support, and enable an organization's ability to contribute to strategic decision making and to respond and adapt to the business environment
· apply EA concepts to support business requirements and identify opportunities for enterprise solutions
Assignment
As you have learned throughout the course, EAs can be used to support a wide variety of information technology management processes, and an EA program strengthens IT management activities. A well-defined and implemented EA contributes significantly to each of the phases of the systems development life cycle (SDLC). For this assignment you will write a 3-5 page paper (not counting any cover sheet or reference pages) that explains briefly what enterprise architecture (EA) is and then how it supplements and enables each of the phases of the SDLC:
· initiation/planning/concept phase
· requirements analysis phase
· design phase
· development phase
· integration and testing phase
· implementation/deployment/support/maintenance phase
You should explain how EA enables each phase, how it fits into each phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities a well-defined EA contributes that might not otherwise be available to the organization.
The use of at least two external scholarly resources (other than class materials) is required. (NOTE: More than two external resources are required to receive all possible points; see Grading Rubric below.) You should use scholarly journals (rather than Wikipedia and author-less website postings). If you need assistance with determining what a scholarly journal is, the UMUC library is a very good source of information, accessed via the following link: http://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfm. Remember to correctly cite and reference all sources using APA format.
Submit your paper in Word format via your Assignments Folder as an attached document with your last name included in the filename.

In Part 3 of the Course Project, you consider how the evidence you gathered during Part 2 can be translated into nursing practice.
Now that you have located available research on your PICOT question, you will examine what the research indicates about nursing practices. Connecting research evidence and findings to actual decisions and tasks that nurses complete in their daily practice is essentially what evidence-based practice is all about. This final component of the Course Project asks you to translate the evidence and data from your literature review into authentic practices that can be adopted to improve health care outcomes. In addition, you will also consider possible methods and strategies for disseminating evidence-based practices to your colleagues and to the broader health care field.
To prepare:
Consider Parts 1 and 2 of your Course Project. How does the research address your PICOT question?
With your PICOT question in mind, identify at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in two or more of the articles from your literature review. Consider what the evidence indicates about how this practice contributes to better outcomes.
Explore possible consequences of failing to adopt the evidence-based practice that you identified.
Consider how you would disseminate information about this evidence-based practice throughout your organization or practice setting. How would you communicate the importance of the practice?
To complete:
In a 3- to 4-page paper:
Restate your PICOT question and its significance to nursing practice.
Summarize the findings from the articles you selected for your literature review. Describe at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in the articles. Justify your response with specific references to at least 2 of the articles.
Explain how the evidence-based practice that you identified contributes to better outcomes. In addition, identify potential negative outcomes that could result from failing to use the evidence-based practice.
Outline the strategy for disseminating the evidence-based practice that you identified throughout your practice setting. Explain how you would communicate the importance of the practice to your colleagues. Describe how you would move from disseminating the information to implementing the evidence-based practice within your organization. How would you address concerns and opposition to the change in practice?It should be combined with the other two components of the Course Project and turned in as your Portfolio Assignment for this course.

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 .

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.

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.

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.

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.

Developing Strategic Leadership In The Public Sector
Stakeholder Analysis

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.

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).

POL110 Week 9 Scenario Script: The Bureaucracy and the Judiciary
Slide #
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.
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.

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.

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.
