Read the Gail Industries Case Study . Imagine you are the IT manager for Gail Industries. You will meet with a new business analyst team at the Smallville customer site. The project sponsor has asked you to spend time with the business analyst team to emphasize the importance of IT governance. Create a 10- to 12-slide media-rich overview and brief analysis presentation with speaker notes in which you: Examine the role of IT governance and why it is important in the IT industry. Analyze key aspects of IT governance, including enterprise resource planning and transaction processing systems. Please note that all assignments are required to have a minimum of 3 references with in-text citations. If you are unsure of what is required, please ask well in advance. Media-rich: means that there are visuals and possibly audio files that enhance the slides. Examples might be charts, diagrams, graphics, photos, videos, voice overs, etc. Slide presentations are meant to engage an audience! They should present concise information in readable type, with media that enhances the information. Speaker notes are where more information can be placed. (Keep in mind all of the boring powerpoint presentations you have attended and avoid making your presentation the same way.) Format citations according to APA guidelines. Submit your assignment. Presentation Expectations Multimedia presentations should engage the intended audience through graphics, diagrams, photos, and text used in a concise manner. Speaker notes should round out the content material. ---- “Content”: details for each topic required in assignment - ---- “Speaker notes” : this is where the details and data should be ---- “Text” : large enough for audience to read / bulleted points / legible fonts ---- “Audience Engagement”: good, due to a balance of visual elements - too many 'bells and whistles' can be distracting but people are engaged by photos and graphics! ___ Images should be compelling and create interest. Use charts, diagrams, images of people, etc. __ Additional Media: Music, voice overs, videos and animations can add to a presentation if not overdone. ---- “Format”: · Title page · Summary page · References: included w/ APA style .

Engineers use oral presentations to efficiently and effectively transfer information to a wide
range of audiences. Usually, the setting and circumstances allow for direct interaction between the
speaker and the audience. Oral presentations are a common method of evaluating the progress of a
project and the progress of the individual. The ability to present oneself and one’s project in a com-
petent and succinct manner enhances one’s college and career development.
Multiple components make up an oral presentation: 1) the audience, 2) the content and organi-
zation, 3) visual aids, and 4) the speaker. Student design teams have control over the last three
items, but little control over the audience. Thus, a presentation goal is to prepare effective visual
aids and a presentation method to capture and maintain the attention of the audience. As with writ-
ing, styles of oral presentation are numerous. All good presentations rely on clarity of expression, an
easily followed train of thought and well thought-out visual aids that illustrate key points in the talk.
High-quality visual aids can make or break a presentation as can poor organization and a sloppy
presentation style (e.g., mumbling, talking to one’s feet or failing to make eye contact with the audi-
ence).

Since presentations are always prepared for an audience, the presenter must evaluate the
audience and determine the best way to pique its interest. Determine who will attend the presenta-
tion. Gather informaiton on the technical awareness of the audience as a whole and the degree of
familiarity that the audience has in the subject. For instance, a presentation on modeling weather
patterns in the Pacific Ocean would be different for an audience of middle school students versus
one prepared for an audience of applied mathematicians. By assessing the audience correctly, the
speaker determines the best way to interest the audience. Explain why the presenter(s) finds the
subject interesting. Convey enthusiasm when explaining how it was determined what the best

course of action was that led to the solution. The interested audience then responds with questions
and comments that show an appreciation for the content and the style of the talk.
Audiences rarely have a uniform composition. Those attending may include, for instance, peers,
managers, contractors, vendors and clients. Before discussing any specific details, present back-
ground information for those who have a limited level of expertise in the subject matter. This informa-
tion helps bring the audience up to a common knowledge level.
Often, the audience includes those who are assessing the work itself and the capabilities of the
presentation team. These individuals probably understand the topic well. For instance, an instructor
evaluates a design team as a.

IT 500 Business Intelligence Presentation Guidelines and Rubric
In a professional career, one may be called upon to conduct research and deliver findings in professional settings. No matter how extensive the research or
accurate the conclusions, a weak presentation can undermine an argument. A presentation is a tool to assist in making an argument. When creating
presentations, students develop skills in researching an issue, synthesizing the information, organizing data logically, and presenting findings in an effective
manner.
“Business intelligence (BI) is a term used by hardware and software vendors and information technology consultants to describe the infrastructure for
warehousing, integrating, reporting, and analyzing data that comes from the business environment, including big data. The foundation infrastructure collects,
stores, cleans, and makes relevant information available to managers” (Laudon & Laudon, 2014).
For this assignment, you will develop a presentation to propose a new business intelligence (BI) application for either your organization or an organization of
your choosing, or to address a real-world problem. Your presentation should be 5–7 slides in length and needs to include the following elements:
Summary of business intelligence
Organizational profile and/or problem statement
Description and purpose of BI solution
Solution
functionality
Data collection methodology
Anticipated results
Limitations of the BI solution
Lessons learned
Use charts, graphs, and images as necessary.
Principles of an Effective Presentation:
You may utilize a product such as Microsoft’s PowerPoint, Adobe Captivate, Prezi, or Google Slides to create your presentations.
There are various template designs that you can find on the web for your presentation. However, first consider your presentation from the perspective
of your audience prior to selecting a specific style. Distracting backgrounds, large blocks of text, all uppercase fonts, elaborate font styles, grammatical
errors, and misspellings are distracting. Be consistent with the style of text, bullets, and sub-points in order to support a powerful presentation that
allows your content to be the focus.
Each slide should include your key point(s). Do not place large blocks of text on the visual. Your presentation is not a means of presenting a short paper.
In an actual presentation, you would not “read” from your slides but rather use them as prompts.

Research Report Assignment SheetPowerPoint with text equivalent.docx
Research Report Assignment Sheet
PowerPoint with text equivalent of 7 pages, 20%
(“messy draft” text to be turned turned in by all students)
Instructor:_______
Goal: Write an informational research report (not a persuasive one—it will not contain “recommendations”) from at least 7 substantial sources using PowerPoint to create a multimodal version (version that employs more than text to communicate its ideas e.g. images, graphs, font colors, etc.).
Topic: Chose any topic related to business about which you are interested in knowing more. [Note: do NOT use any topic you have used in another class project without my permission! For this assignment, you need to learn how to find information on topics, not reproduce a case study or other paper.]
Process:
1. Once you have a topic, contemplate its potential business implications then create a scenario that includes an audience (a hypothetical boss) who would be interested in your topic and imagine a purpose (make up who and why they would ask you to write an informational report— what is the business problem or opportunity that your boss needs information on in order to respond. This information will handed in with your assignment via BB and will appear on your title slide)
2. Draft the reportin Word with this audience in mind (consider questions related to purpose and audience, such as how much background your boss might need, what kind of language and tone you should use, how formal if your business discourse, whether you should define certain terms for this boss, etc.) However, don’t spend a lot of time on wording or formatting at this stage—e.g. don’t worry about sentence structure, word choices, formatting, etc and take advantage of bullets, outlines, notes, copy/pasting from other documents etc. (with the latter, make sure you include a link to give credit where credit is due and so that you don’t lose track of the source when you need to cite it in the final report). You will submit this draft to BB with your multimodal version, however, the messy draft will not be graded. Because you are grappling with new the challenges posed by new modalities, you are at risk for cognitive overload, where the basics suffer as you reach beyond your usual experiences. Given this, it is important to craft the main messages and plan the organization before getting into the process of employing other modalities. Your messy draft will serve as evidence that you thought carefully about the content of the report before you composed the multimodal version. You MUST write a draft before you compose the multimodal version.
3. Transpose the report to PowerPoint by creating pages that effectively employ the multimodal devices available through this software (e.g. fonts, color, text, the integration of images or video, use of bullets and headings to organize information, links to other sites, etc.). Remember: this is NOT a presentation to a live audience; it’s a research report only! You will never present t ...

1. yes the SmartArt tool is certainly an option that you can use to your advantage. Be advised that customizing SmartArt can be a challenge for the new PowerPoint user. Did you find that the graphic diagrams worked well initially or required some additional modifications?
2. Great post! I also utilized the Smartart/ Wordart feature on powerpoint. It helped my slogan pop out of my presentation and gave the audience something to remember about my product. I agree, it helps make the presentation visually appealing which is an important aspect to all professional presentations, especially those targeted to an audience. It captures attention which should be given to the important points which wont be done if the information is presented in plain text. Although,I do think too much WordArt can make the presentation look tacky, so on that note, I like to keep it for the most important factors!
3. i think its very important to make sure that there is a flow in you presentation. that it must look appealing and catch the readers attention. To much going on in a slide will not deliver your message in a professional way. when i didn't my presentation, i believe in the term "less is more". Even though i did put images, shapes,colors, etc. i made sure to blend them well enough to look presentable and still believer the message.
4. Powerpoint is an important tool when it comes to making a presentation to captivate your audience. Personally, I would say an essential for a professional layout would be to keep pictures on one side of the slide and words on the other. This option can be found under the "Slides" option and you can select the slide that offers two columns of information except one. In one column there would be a picture and in the other there would be words. For example, I used the technique in my Unit 2 assignment. I had my product picture on one side and a description of it on the side. In that manner, I was able to showcase my product and its features without there being too many pictures and words crowded on screen. This kept everything organized so if someone were to come across it, there would know what its for and what its about.
Another tool I use is Word Art for slogans that are important to the product or service I am showcasing to an audience. That keeps that attend to what the product is and about; also it keeps the audience engaged on your presentation and gives them something catchy to leave with. I utilized this tool in my assignment as well to make the slogan of my product pop.
5. I think the most essential and proffesional layout for Microsoft PowerPoint is the use of pictures and smart art. It catches the viewers attention and keeps them interested while listening to the presentation and also looking at the pictures of what the presentation is based on. The presentation may be boring but by using pictures and smart art it keeps the audience interested and connected to the slideshow. Yes I used pictures in my ...

Design a PowerPoint presentation about the AmericanPop Culture.docx
Design a PowerPoint presentation about the American
Pop Culture to present to an audience of 500 High School Students
1) As you work on the presentation, try to make sure that the resources
you include (hyperlinks to web sites, photos and images, sounds and
music, or videos) are American Pop culturally authentic whenever possible. They should also contribute to helping students to grasp the meaning you are trying to convey. (In other words, don't just include animations, graphics, music, or sound effects just for fun—use them as tools!)
2) Try not to create a presentation just for the sake of the assignment. In
other words, think about how PowerPoint can enhance students'
experience with the content in ways that are not possible with other
media. (For example, PowerPoint makes it easier to organize
information, highlight key points using color, shape, and animation,
etc.)
3) There is no minimum number of slides, but it would be difficult to
accomplish anything of substance in less than 5 slides. You should
consider the amount of time typically available in a single period as the
maximum time available.
4) You must include at least one image or photo, one hyperlink, and one
audio or video clip in your presentation.
5) You may include special animations, backgrounds, effects, or
transitions if you like, but they are not required.
6) Here are a few tips for creating successful PowerPoint presentations:
· Use contrasting colors (light backgrounds call for darker fonts, while dark backgrounds call for lighter colored fonts).
· Use at least 24-point font in presentations that will be viewed by a
whole class.
· Do not use more than 2 different fonts on a slide.
· Do not put too many words on a slide. If you need to include more
details, it is better to use additional slides.
· Try to be consistent with the style of designs and color schemes.
· Images make it more interesting!

There is a high probability of hazardous material incidents and you have identified credible threats associated with the emerging sovereign citizens’ movement. Your state agency is well prepared by having response units in place. However, you don’t have the funds to properly outfit all possible response units for each of the possible threats. Your agency is eligible to receive federal grant funds and you have been tasked with researching and writing the grant proposal.
Over the last few years, potential pandemics have gained increased attention among law enforcement professionals at both the state and local levels.

Design a PowerPoint presentation about the AmericanPop Culture.docx
Design a PowerPoint presentation about the American
Pop Culture to present to an audience of 500 High School Students
1) As you work on the presentation, try to make sure that the resources
you include (hyperlinks to web sites, photos and images, sounds and
music, or videos) are American Pop culturally authentic whenever possible. They should also contribute to helping students to grasp the meaning you are trying to convey. (In other words, don't just include animations, graphics, music, or sound effects just for fun—use them as tools!)
2) Try not to create a presentation just for the sake of the assignment. In
other words, think about how PowerPoint can enhance students'
experience with the content in ways that are not possible with other
media. (For example, PowerPoint makes it easier to organize
information, highlight key points using color, shape, and animation,
etc.)
3) There is no minimum number of slides, but it would be difficult to
accomplish anything of substance in less than 5 slides. You should
consider the amount of time typically available in a single period as the
maximum time available.
4) You must include at least one image or photo, one hyperlink, and one
audio or video clip in your presentation.
5) You may include special animations, backgrounds, effects, or
transitions if you like, but they are not required.
6) Here are a few tips for creating successful PowerPoint presentations:
· Use contrasting colors (light backgrounds call for darker fonts, while dark backgrounds call for lighter colored fonts).
· Use at least 24-point font in presentations that will be viewed by a
whole class.
· Do not use more than 2 different fonts on a slide.
· Do not put too many words on a slide. If you need to include more
details, it is better to use additional slides.
· Try to be consistent with the style of designs and color schemes.
· Images make it more interesting!

Scenario for Question 4
Ramila Zamora looked forward to her recent promotion to management and was looking forward to her transfer within the large county hospital to another nursing unit. She was enthusiastic and hopeful about working together with other nurses to improve patient care through effective teamwork. She felt that she was well prepared to lead and supervise and was grateful for the opportunity.
Ms. Zamora was provided very little information about her predecessor and knew less about her subordinates. She was stymied and baffled about the behavior of the nursing staff during her first team meeting. Ms. Zamora introduced herself to the group and with what she thought was great enthusiasm, distributed her agenda and immediately began to delegate tasks to the team members. She noticed that three of the five members began to look at each other and roll their eyes. As she continued to read the list of responsibilities, designating team members to the various tasks, two members got up and began pouring coffee and speaking softly to each other. Ms. Zamora was exasperated. She told them that the meeting was over and that she did not want to take any more time away from their jobs then was necessary.
She returned to her new office feeling deflated and discouraged. She asked herself several questions. What went wrong? Why did the nursing staff treat her so rudely? Had she made a grave career mistake? What should she do?

Read the scenario and answer the questions that followBobby Y.docx
Read the scenario and answer the questions that follow:
Bobby Yurkanin’s 84-year-old father had Alzheimer’s disease. For nearly nine years, Bobby lived with his father, meeting the elder Yurkanins’s needs 24 hours per day, seven days per week. In the years prior to his father’s diagnosis, Bobby had also cared for his mother through her struggle with terminal cancer. Friends describe Bobby as a dedicated caregiver who patiently helped his father through episodes of wandering, combativeness, sudden mood swings, and public disrobing.
Neighbors and friends reported occasionally hearing Bobby yell or curse at his father in frustration, but nobody had witnessed physical violence. Those familiar with the Yurkanin family history claim that Bobby, an only child, experienced a difficult and traumatic childhood. His father was an alcoholic who reportedly abused Bobby, his mother, and his grandmother. In addition, Bobby’s mother suffered frequent psychotic episodes related to a mental disorder. Bobby eventually left the tumultuous home, finished college, spent time in law school, and started a paralegal business. In the late 1990s Bobby returned home to care for his ailing mother. Following Mrs. Yurkanin’s death, Bobby and his father sold their New Jersey home and moved to a condominium in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
It was on a visit to a Florida beach that Bobby witnessed another episode of his father’s public disrobing. Although witness accounts vary, it appears that an exasperated Bobby dragged his father into waist deep water in an attempt to put his father’s shorts back on. The elder Yurkanin fought Bobby and during the struggle the 84-year-old man’s head went under water. Witnesses report that Bobby eventually pulled his father out of the water but are unsure whether or not Bobby (a skilled life guard) performed CPR once on the sand. However, many witnesses report that Bobby resisted any calls to 911 and refused an ambulance for his father.
The next day, Mr. Yurkanin was pronounced dead. An autopsy listed drowning as the cause of death. Several days later, Bobby was arrested on charges of first-degree murder.
Discuss this case in relation to elder abuse and neglect, parricide, eldercide, and the cycle of violence

The Controversy: Does fracking contribute to global warming?
Passage 1. Pro: from "Fracking Contributes to Global Warming" by Louis W. Allstadt
The fracking that's going on right now is the real wake-up call on just what extreme lengths are
required to pull oil or gas out of the ground now that most of the conventional reservoirs have
been exploited—at least those that are easy to access.
First of all you have to look at what is conventional oil and gas. That was pretty much anything
that was produced until around 2000. It's basically a process of drilling down through a cap rock,
an impervious rock that has trapped oil and gas beneath it. And once you're into that reservoir—
which is really not a void, it’s porous rock—the natural pressure of the gas will push up the gas
and oil.
Now what's happened is that the prospect of finding more of those conventional reservoirs,
particularly on land and in the places that have been heavily explored like the US and Europe
and the Middle East just is very, very small. And the companies have pretty much acknowledged
that. All of them talk about the need to go to either nonconventional shale or tight sand drilling
or to go into deeper and deeper waters or to go into really hostile Arctic regions and possibly
Antarctic regions.
Both the horizontal drilling and fracturing have been around for a long time. The industry will
tell you this over and over again—they've been around for 60 years, things like that. That is
correct. What's different is the volume of fracking fluids and the volume of flowback that occurs
in these wells. It is 50 to 100 times more than what was used in the conventional wells.
The other [difference] is that the rock above the target zone is not necessarily impervious the
way it was in the conventional wells. And to me that last point is at least as big as the volume.
The industry will tell you that the mile or two between the zone that's being fracked is not going
to let anything come up.
But there are already cases where the methane gas has made it up into the aquifers and
atmosphere. Sometimes through old well bores, sometimes through natural fissures in the rock.
What we don't know is just how much gas is going to come up over time. It's a point most people
haven't gotten. It's not just what's happening today. We're opening up channels for the gas to
creep up to the surface and into the atmosphere. And methane is a much more potent greenhouse
gas in the short term—less than 100 years—than carbon dioxide.

Read the passage from Burning Bright” of Fahrenheit 451 which begin.docx
Read the passage from “Burning Bright” of Fahrenheit 451 which begins “Half an hour later, cold, and moving carefully” and ends “Blackout. Silence. Darkness” carefully before you choose your answers.
Questions:
Montag is most powerfully affected by fire
Answer choices:
intensity
destructiveness
capriciousness
duality
unpredictability
The paragraph which begins “How long he stood” contains all of the following EXCEPT
hyperbole
metaphor
onomatopoeia
sensory imagery
From the two paragraphs which begin “There was a silence” and “And then voices began,” it can be inferred that the society from which Montag came is characterized by its
uncomfortable silences
philosophical discussions
mindless chatter
constant bickering
curiosity about the world
Granger’s first words and actions are characterized by
trepidation
civility
irony
pretense
joviality
The police decide to chase a scapegoat because
They think this will force Montag to turn himself in
Their commanding officers will not accept failure
The scapegoat actually poses a greater threat than Montag does
They know the Hound has the need to capture a victim
They want to sustain the attention of their viewing audience

Courage to Speak
“Any volunteers?” Ms. Chavez scanned the class. Ming slouched farther down in her seat. “Come on now, you’ll all have to interview someone sometime this year. No one wants to go first? Okay, I’ll just have to choose someone.” I am an ant, she won’t notice me, Ming thought. “Ming, why don’t you go first? Come on up and pick a name out of a hat.” Ms. Chavez shook the slips of paper around in the hat. Ming dragged herself up to the front of the room. She drew out a slip of paper.
“Mrs. Russo,” Ming whispered hoarsely.
“Great, the librarian! You’ll have a fine time interviewing her. Now just remember to ask her the questions we came up with, record her answers, and then you can present them next week.” Ms. Chavez cheered as Ming quickly returned to her seat.
Ming knew Mrs. Russo was very nice. She had helped Ming use the computer to find science articles last week. Ming knew she could interview Mrs. Russo. It was the class presentation afterward that she dreaded. Even back home in China, Ming had hated speaking in front of the class. Here in the United States, it was worse. She spoke slowly and with a thick accent. Ming sighed and packed up her books. She had a free period next, so she might as well get the interview part completed.
Ming found Mrs. Russo in the reference section of the library. “Hi, Ming!” Mrs. Russo said cheerfully. “Need more articles on chimpanzees this week?”
“No, I need to interview you,” Ming said quietly. She suddenly felt shy. Why had Mrs. Chavez given this assignment?
“Oh, an interview for what? The school paper?” Mrs. Russo asked.
“No. For Mrs. Chavez’s ESL class,” Ming whispered.
“Sure, ask away! I’ll just keep stacking these books if you don’t mind,” Mrs. Russo replied, turning to the shelves. Ming felt relieved. It was much easier to interview Mrs. Russo’s back.
“Are you American?” Ming asked.
“Yes… I mean, I was born in Argentina, but I moved here when I was 25. I became an American citizen. Most of my family still lives in Argentina. My husband and our children live here. I am like all Americans, multicultural,” Mrs. Russo laughed.
“Is English your first language?” Ming asked.
“No, Spanish is,” Mrs. Russo replied.
“What does the American Dream mean to you?” Ming asked.
“In Argentina, my husband and I couldn’t make enough money to support our family. We knew that we could in the United States. We also knew we’d have to give up being near our family. The American Dream is not perfect. It takes courage and sacrifices, but it is worth it.” Mrs. Russo turned to Ming. Ming smiled. It takes courage not to act like an ant. She understood why Ms. Chavez had given this assignment. She could find the courage to share what she had learned about Mrs. Russo in front of the class.
1. Why does Ming slouch down? (1 point)
She doesn't want to get chosen first.

Read the passage below and answer the 4 questions at the end. Do.docx
Read the passage below and answer the 4 questions at the end.
Dorothy’s Way
IN THE CLASSIC STORY OF “THE WIZARD OF OZ,” DOROTHY ILLUSTRATES A NEW KIND OF LEADER. SHE INVITES HER FRIENDS ON A JOURNEY, HELPS THEM DISCOVER THEIR GIFTS, ENCOURAGES THEM AND WALKS WITH THEM RATHER THAN INSISTING ON BEING UP FRONT. SHE DOESN’T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, BUT SHE GETS THEM TO THEIR GOAL.
One of my favorite memories as a kid was watching the movie The Wizard of Oz on television. It came on every year. We would pop popcorn and sit around as a family watching Dorothy, the scarecrow, the tin man and the cowardly lion leave the munchkins in the Land of Oz and make their way to the Emerald City. I still enjoy the movie. It’s a classic.
Today, however, I watch it through a different lens. I sat with my own kids a few years ago and learned all kinds of new things from Dorothy—as I watched the film from a leadership perspective. (I know it sounds crazy, but I seem to find leadership principles in almost every movie I see, including Dumb and Dumber and Napoleon Dynamite!) This time, my leadership discovery came from a very ordinary girl from Kansas who would not claim to be a leader at all.
As I observe trends in our culture, it seems to me that there is a cry for a new kind of leader today. We have moved through various leadership styles over the last fifty years, and many of them can be seen in this classic movie. Reflect on the characters in the movie for a moment, and note the three kinds of leaders in it:
1. THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST
She has her cronies, but they follow because she forces them to do so. She leads from manipulation or coercion. In fact, when she melts, her followers celebrate.
2. THE WIZARD OF OZ
He is the all-powerful leader who leads through intimidation and superiority. He is all-wise and all-powerful—the kind of leader we all tend to imagine is the best one for the job.
3. DOROTHY
She is an unlikely leader who doesn’t have all the answers but invites her friends on a journey, helps them discover their gifts and walks with them rather than insisting on being up front.
At first glance, Dorothy appears all wrong as a model of leadership. I am certain she never felt like she was a leader. She doesn’t fit the gender stereotype, and she’s quite young. Instead of being a person who has all the solutions and knows exactly what to do next—she is herself on a journey, a seeker, often bewildered and vulnerable. Yet she is determined to get her team—made up of a scarecrow, a tin man and a cowardly lion—to the wizard, where they can find what they’re looking for. Armed with this resolve, she walks down the yellow brick road on a journey of discovery with her newfound friends. No one expects her to have all the answers. They don’t want a “sage on the stage,” but a “guide on the side” to help them reach their goal.
Let’s contrast Dorothy with the Great Wizard himself. Frequently, many of us avoid leadership positions because we hold an image of a leade.

Analytics: Q&A with Tapan
Patel and Murali Nori of SAS
Nicole D’Angelo
1. Organizations are already collecting vast amounts of data
from a myriad of sources. Why should they add location data to
the analytical mix?
The most common uses of analytics and reporting are based on
business data. Location information doesn’t get much attention.
But all business has to happen somewhere. The Internet of Things
has created connected cars, connected people, and analytics at
the edge, and this technology is making business rethink some use
cases. Location will be an important aspect for these kinds of things.
Driverless cars, Uber, drones—all are evolving, and real technologies
and business models are being built around them. These all rely on
location as an important facet, thus making location an important
aspect of business analysis and business data that organizations
need to pay more attention to.
2. What business issues have you seen being solved by using
location analytics?
Some are covered above. Add to that, business scenarios
where location is a primary factor, such as property insurance
companies trying to determine the price of insurance based
on location, healthcare organizations trying to understand the
types of services needed based on the demographic data of a
city or location, or new transportation companies, like Uber and Lyft, analyzing and
understanding the use of their servic.

CASE 13
Selecting the New Vice President
Note:
Please read only those parts identified by your instructor. Do not read ahead.
Part A
When the new president at Mid-West U took over, it was only a short time before the incumbent vice president announced his resignation. Unfortunately, there was no one waiting in the wings, and a hiring freeze prevented a national search from commencing.
Many faculty leaders and former administrators suggested that the president appoint Jennifer Treeholm, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs, as interim. She was an extremely popular person on campus and had ten years of experience in the role of associate vice president. She knew everyone and everything about the campus. Treeholm, they assured him, was the natural choice. Besides, she
deserved
the job. Her devotion to the school was unparalleled, and her energy knew no bounds. The new president, acting on advice from many campus leaders, appointed Treeholm as interim vice president for a term of up to three years. He also agreed that she could be a candidate for the permanent position when the hiring freeze was lifted.
Treeholm and her friends were ecstatic. It was high time more women moved into important positions on campus. They went out for dinner to their every-Friday-night watering hole to celebrate and reflect on Treeholm's career.
Except for a brief stint outside of academe, Treeholm's entire career had been at Mid-West U. She started out teaching introductory history, then, realizing she wanted to get on the tenure track, went back to school and earned her Ph.D. at Metropolitan U while continuing to teach at Mid-West. Upon completion of her degree, she was appointed as an assistant professor and eventually earned the rank of associate based on her popularity and excellent teaching.
Treeholm was well liked, and she devoted her entire life, it seemed, to Mid-West, helping to form the first union, getting grants, writing skits for the faculty club's annual follies, and going out of her way to befriend everyone who needed support.
Eventually, Treeholm was elected president of the faculty senate. After serving for two years, she was offered the position of associate vice president. During her ten years as associate vice president, she handled most of the academic complaints, oversaw several committees, wrote almost all of the letters and reports for the vice president, and was even known to run personal errands for the president. People just knew they could count on her.
Part B
Treeholm's appointment as interim vice president was met with great enthusiasm. Finally the school was getting someone who was “one of their own,” a perso.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
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.

Wolontariat grupowyThe 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.
