Education

Read/review the following resources for this activity: · Pollock (Cengage, 9e) Writing Requirements (APA format) · 3-4 pages (approx. 300 words per page), not including title page or references page · 1-inch margins · Double spaced · 12-point Times New Roman font · Title page with topic and name of student Week 1 Assignment: Essay Introduction In your reading, you learned that there is man-made law and natural law. Next week you’ll read about punishment and its proposed purpose(s). In this assignment, you’re asked to evaluate the letter of the law vs. the spirit of the law in terms of whether someone is guilty of a crime and/or whether they should be punished. In addition, you’re asked to evaluate the ethical dilemma using a methodical process that will help you critically think through, resolve, and defend your decision on what to do. You’re just starting to see, hopefully, that ethical dilemmas aren’t always easy to resolve, and that’s precisely why they’re dilemmas! (If you like the challenge of thinking this dilemma through and are interested in something similar, read “The Merchant of Venice” by William Shakespeare. It has a similar theme and is written by one of the greatest play writes of all time!) Activity Instructions Mercy Killing You are selected for a jury trial of a 64-year-old mother who killed her two adult sons. The two men had Huntington’s disease, a degenerative brain disease, and were institutionalized. They were certain to die and would endure much pain and suffering before they expired. The defendant’s husband had died from this same disease, and she had nursed him throughout his illness until his death. The defendant took a gun into the nursing home, kissed her sons good-bye, and then shot them both through the head. She was arrested for first-degree murder. The prosecutor informs you that there is not “mercy killing” defense in the law as it is written. If you were on the jury, how would you decide this case? What punishment does she deserve? Why? Content Requirements: each assignment must cover the following four requirements fully. 1. Ethical Dilemma . State what the primary and ancillary ethical dilemmas are as presented by the Case Study. Do not restate the facts of the case. 2. Present a resolution of the case study . State specifically WHAT you’re going to do and WHY you’re doing what you’re doing to resolve the ethical dilemma. Be very specific and detailed. 3. Identify which ethical system(s) support your resolution. Look to Chapter 2 of the Pollock textbook to identify the list of ethical systems to be used. 4. Integrate any material/concepts learned in the course that are applicable to the case study and/or your resolution. Show specifically how the material/content applies. Be sure to cite your resources/textbook properly. Week 2 Assignment: Essay Introduction In the assignment for last week, I suggested you might enjoy reading “The Merchant of Venice”. The as.

Respond to two of your colleagues (select colleagues, if possible, who have not yet received feedback on their original post) in one or more of the following ways: · Based on your experience and the resources from the course, provide that person with additional suggestions and/or alternative approaches that he or she may not have considered specific to his or her evaluation. · Compare your colleagues’ ideas with what IDEO found to be successful. Does IDEO offer additional ideas that would enhance the potential for success of your colleagues’ suggestions? · Provide positive feedback that describes how the post gave you new perspectives on how to support and encourage a creative environment in the workplace.

Thus far, it has been a wonderful experience and I am grateful for all the opportunities that are brought forth with my new career position. There is great leadership demonstrated at my job that allows the company to run smoothly. Each department has a team lead as well as a supervisor, although, you would not know it because they are reserved and treat everyone equally as if everyone is on the same management level. Puccio, Mance, and Murdock (2011) says “employee performance is more important than seniority, and the behavior of IDEO leadership consistently demonstrates that flexibility is “in” and rigid rules are “out” ” (Puccio, Mance, and Murdock, 2011, pp. 3-4). Our leaders are not strict on us and permit us the freedom to take risks, make mistakes, and learn from them. There are rules and regulations presented, however, our leaders provide an environment that is not just easy to work in, but comfortable and safe to work in. Our work environment is surrounded by each individual having their own cubicle desk amongst their own team. Some but not all of the supervisors have their own office. Due to the open space that everyone has, it encourages everyone to mingle by communicating with each other, learning from each other, and sharing creative ideas with one another for the success of the company. The work environment is crucial at my organization mainly because of everyone not being able to have their own individual offices with having doors for privacy. “IDEO has learned that having the right size workspace makes a difference. Too much workspace decreases energy and slightly tight space generates energy. There are opportunities for spontaneous interactio.

Respond to at least two of your colleagues in one or more of the following ways: · Expand upon or suggest alternative approaches to your colleague’s plan by drawing upon the resources and materials from this course. Justify your contributions with an explanation as to why you think your suggestions will improve the plan. · Share a professional experience that would be relevant and helpful to the plan presented by your colleague.

MUST USE FOR Response to Colleagues Template Expansion of a Colleagues Plan with Justification Share a Helpful Professional Experience Share a Colleague’s Insight That You Would Use in Your Workplace APA References 1st Colleague to respond to: How You Would Bring a Team Together & Lead Them to Start Such an Initiative My management preference as a leader, is to have biweekly meetings with my team and 1 on 1’s. Why? Because not everyone is comfortable talking or communicating with others at the beginning. I have utilized this process before of which once a person is able to relate and show their strengths, I promote the two different meeting sessions. The three times I have utilized this method of communication, I have only had to conduct three 1 on 1’s. Then everyone is comfortable with each other and understands each other roles, expertise and also realizes they can learn from each other. Because of the differences, whether it is creativity, or education it ultimately brings understanding with each other and the relationships are relaxed to listen and ask each other questions to help one another. “I like to take the time to weigh different solutions and then turn the best in something great”(Grivas, C et al, pg. 22). Human Resources/Benefits is about preparing for new hires, open enrollment and the various concerns during the course of a year that our employees may encounter. Course Related Tools to use on Team As a leader, it is my responsibility to have the initial plan of what I need for the team to think about, elaborate and to clarify, and promote other ideas to accommodate our employees. I want them to own want we the company want for our employees to experience. The team is expected to provide new innovative ideas to ensure that employees are educated and comfortable with the information that is provided to them regarding HR/Benefits. I’m not here as their leader to “…set standards of behavior or expectations of performance and then violate them”(Zenger, J., et al 2009). That is not being a leader or team player. I want my team to elevate and be promoted, so holding them back is not what I want for them. This team is ready to work with each other, I recommended that the team select a captain so that when I am in other meetings the captain will be.

Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings. Make sure to find posts where the organization presented was different in size (large vs. small) or where your colleague assessed the organization from a different organizational level (e.g., top level vs. middle level management). Compare your colleagues’ experiences and assessments with your own, giving careful thought to how these dimensions might have impacted the results. Respond to two or more of your colleagues in one or more of the following ways: · Compare the results of your colleague’s assessment with your own. What factors were ranked differently and what factors seemed to impact the climate of creativity the most. Explain why. · Based upon specific details in a colleague’s assessment, explain any additional insights about the influence of the size of the organization and/or the level within the organization from which the assessment was made. For example, how might the assessment change or differ if one is on the frontline versus upper management. · Analyze the importance of leading from all levels of the organization in fostering a creative climate. Template Responses to Your Colleagues Comparison of Colleagues Assessment with Your Own Additional Insights Analysis of Leading from All levels APA References 1st Colleague to respond to: Description of the Organization The selected organization is a large, global company with locations in over 14 countries. I currently work for the organization as a Marketing Manager and will be completing this assessment based on my experience in this role and access to varying levels of the organization. Description of factors that Contribute to Creative Climate Due to the size of the organization, there are varying levels of leadership and management. I have access to several, both in the America’s and globally due to the nature of our marketing department. I would say that the overall creative climate of our organization involves trust, openness and freedom. Of course, each department varies in creative climate due to the tasks at hand, however as an organization, the creative climate is very positive. Speaking specifically about the marketing department in which I work, I would say that individual and teams have a positive creative climate and push the boundaries where necessary. For teams, its important to “Match the right people with the right assignments, so employees are stretched but not stretched too thin” (Amabile, 2000). Our organization does a great job at doing so and also in giving “freedom within the company’s goals” (Amabile, 2000). Although there are goals to meet, we can achieve them however we feel is best. Fresh ideas are encouraged and often help achieve new goals. Areas that contribute to negative creative climate are often time and money. As an organization I think we can continually do better in creating realistic timelines. “Organizations routinely kill creativity with fake deadlines or impossibly tight ones. The former cr.

Social learning theory is described as being a “theory of learning process and social behavior which proposes that new behaviors can be acquired by observing and imitating others.” Learning is a social experience in a lot of different ways. Social interactions are critical in learning. We learn so much from interacting with others and our environment. The fundamental principles of social learning states that “learning occurs when observing other's behaviors and the resulting outcomes of those behaviors.” Observation and mimicking are the first forms of learning as a child. Peer collaboration, reciprocal teaching, apprenticeships, and scaffolding are all examples of learning using the social model. In other words, we learn from everything around us. We learn from our interactions as it stimulates developmental processes and fosters cognitive growth, the information that is “learned” is transformed into knowledge. Lev Vygotsky is a constructivist theorist; he placed more emphasis on the social environment being a factor in learning. Vygotsky’s theory stresses that “the interaction of interpersonal (social), cultural-historical, and individual factors as the key to human development. Vygotsky considered the social environment critical for learning and thought that social interactions form learning experiences” (Schunk, page 242). One of the fundamental concepts presented by Lev Vygotsky is that a person’s interactions with the environment aid in their learning. Social interactions are necessary for learning to take place, and that knowledge is gained when two or more people interact with one another. Another concept would be self-regulation, which involves “the coordination of mental processes such as planning, synthesizing, and forming concepts” (Schunk, page 252)..

This model of television storytelling is distinct for its use of narrative complexity as an alternative to the conventional episodic and serial forms that have typified most American television since its inception. We can see such innovative narrative form in popular hits of recent decades from Seinfeld to Lost, West Wing to The X-Files, as well as in critically beloved but ratings-challenged shows like Arrested Development, Veronica Mars, Boomtown, and Firefly. HBO has built its reputation and subscriber base upon narratively complex shows, such as The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and The Wire. Clearly, these shows offer an alternative to conventional television narrative—the purpose of this essay is to chart out the formal attributes of this storytelling mode, explore its unique pleasures and patterns of comprehension, and suggest a range of reasons for its emergence in the 1990s. In trying to understand the storytelling practices of contemporary American television, we might consider narrative complexity as a distinct narrational mode, as suggested by David Bordwell’s analysis of film narrative. For Bordwell, a “narrational mode is a historically distinct set of norms of narrational construction and comprehension,” one that crosses genres, specific creators, and artistic movements to forge a coherent category of practices.1 Bordwell outlines specific cinematic modes such as classical Hollywood, art cinema, and historical materialism, all of which encompass distinct storytelling strategies while still referencing one another and building on the foundations of other modes.

CheckPoint Human Virtues and Character Strengths Examine one human virtue and the associated character strengths that are important to you, as listed in Ch. 10 of Positive Psychology . Select someone who you know or is a public figure who you feel encompasses at least one of these virtues. Discuss why this virtue is important to you. How does the person you selected encompass this virtue and the associated character strengths? Post a 200- to 300-word response. Think of someone you hold in high regard and look up to as a model for yourself and others. Perhaps a friend, relative, or a person from history or contemporary society comes to mind. Think about this individual’s personal qualities and how you might describe the basis of your admiration to another person. Make a mental list of 4 or 5 qualities that make this person deserving of your respect. Now compare your list to the positive traits discussed in Chapter 9. How many of them overlap? Did your list include extraversion, cheerfulness, selfesteem, or optimism? What traits on your list are not in Chapter 9? Did you include any of the following qualities: integrity, courage, honesty, kindness, religious conviction, wisdom, fairness, or modesty? The point here, affirmed by how we think about people we respect, is that a description of positive human traits would be incomplete without including personal qualities CHAPTER OUTLINE Developing a Classification of Human Virtues Measuring Strengths of Character Wisdom as a Foundational Strength and Virtue What is Wisdom?

READINGS: Introduction Unit II examines ethical, legal, and legislative issues affecting leadership and management as well as professional advocacy. This chapter focuses on applied ethical decision making as a critical leadership role for managers. Chapter 5 examines the impact of legislation and the law on leadership and management, and Chapter 6 focuses on advocacy for patients and subordinates and for the nursing profession in general. Ethics is the systematic study of what a person’s conduct and actions should be with regard to self, other human beings, and the environment; it is the justification of what is right or good and the study of what a person’s life and relationships should be, not necessarily what they are. Ethics is a system of moral conduct and principles that guide a person’s actions in regard to right and wrong and in regard to oneself and society at large. Ethics is concerned with doing the right thing, although it is not always clear what that is. Applied ethics requires application of normative ethical theory to everyday problems. The normative ethical theory for each profession arises from the purpose of the profession. The values and norms of the nursing profession, therefore, provide the foundation and filter from which ethical decisions are made. The nurse-manager, however, has a different ethical responsibility than the clinical nurse and does not have as clearly defined a foundation to use as a base for ethical reasoning. In addition, because management is a discipline and not a profession, its purpose is not as clearly defined as medicine or law; therefore, the norms that guide ethical decision making are less clear. Instead, the organization reflects norms and values to the manager, and the personal values of managers are reflected through the organization. The manager’s ethical obligation is tied to the organization’s purpose, and the purpose of the organization is linked to the function that it fills in society and the constraints society places on it. So, the responsibilities of the nurse-manager emerge from a complex set of interactions. Society helps define the purposes of various institutions, and the purposes, in turn, help ensure that the institution fulfills specific functions. However, the specific values and norms in any institution determine the focus of its resources and shape its organizational life. The values of people within institutions influence actual management practice. In reviewing this set of complex interactions, it becomes evident that arriving at appropriate ethical management decisions can be a difficult task. In addition, nursing management ethics are distinct from clinical nursing ethics . Although significant research exists regarding ethical dilemmas and moral distress experienced by staff nurses in clinical roles, less research exists regarding the ethical distress experienced by nursing managers. Nursing management ethics are also distinct from other areas of m.

Mexico wanted to get at par with the United States in the year 1821 as they were not so far from them, except that they were under the Spanish colonial rulers. The thoughts of Mexican elites to better their country came at the time when there was a demographic revolution, and many people traveled, and many people migrated on the oceans and within Europe leading to more above 50 million Europeans settling into the United States. The immigration made the Mexican elites more aware of and eager to involve in the Atlantic migrations. Chp. 1 Inequality Cheap labor.

Clarissa has just broken up with her boyfriend of two years, Mark. She runs through the garden and trips on something; it is a musical box, one that she is familiar with, “this cannot be,” she says trembling, “where did this come from!” She drops the box and looks around. She is not sure of what or who she is looking for, but she is afraid. Afraid because that music box was evidence confiscated by the police as the murder weapon used to kill Marie, her best friend. No one had ever been apprehended for the murder but she blames herself. She knew that her connection to Mark somehow had something to do with Marie’s death, but she was too stubborn to end the relationship; even when she was confident that Mark played a part in it. She is snapped back to reality with a weird rustling in the bushes. Scared, Clarissa picks up the music box and runs back to her car. As she struggles getting her keys, a mysterious figure walks up behind her. “Hello Clar, remember me,” the figure whispers. Confused, Clarissa tries to scream but the figure knocks her unconscious, dragging her back into the woods next to the garden. Mystical Gardens has always been Clarissa’s favorite place. It was where she and Marie vowed to be best friends for life and where she and Mark shared their first kiss. She loves it because it is secluded; a lot of privacy, clean air, and a killer view, or the lovers’ peak. Anyone who enjoys their privacy came to the Mystical Gardens; it is home to many secrets. “Mark is weird Clar, be very careful.” Marie warned. “Oh Come on Em… not this again! Look, I know he is anti-social and a bit weird, but he is a sweet guy. He said for our next anniversary, we would go ice skating and come back here to watch the stars. I promise, once you get to know him, you will love him.” Nicholas Neilson 10990000003755937 I feel that little more build up could improve the story.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...

Sandy Millin

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative

Peter Windle

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf

kaushalkr1407

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.
