In previous weeks, you learned how to conduct an effective training needs assessment and initial steps of designing training, especially designing outcome-oriented learning objectives that become the road map for the next phases of training. You read the Domtar case and how Raymond Royer, the CEO, took initiative to develop employees; how he focused on developing strategic direction and specific goals that focused on (a) return on investment and (b) customer service. You also learned about appropriate training methods selection in the design and development phases.
The delivery methods and implementation of training are critical for the success of training in terms of employees’ engagement and motivation to learn. It is important to understand individuals’ learning styles to decide what methods are appropriate for a particular group of learners. To be more effective, training should include multiple training methods (e.g. lectures, brain storming, group work, discussions, role play, case analysis, simulations and games) and activities to motivate learners who have different types of learning styles, preferences, learning goals and personal expectations. Learner engagement is the key to learning. There are various methods you can use to engage and motivate learners for better results, such as role play, discussion, on-the-job training, simulation, self-directed learning, business games, case studies, team work, behavior modeling, etc.
Styles of Learning
People have different styles of learning. These learning styles help them to acquire new information and knowledge. There are many different learning styles but for simplicity they can be broken down into four major categories.

Initial Reflection on Teaching and Learning

There are several practices that the instructors use that have encouraged me to take a deep learning approach. They include group discussions, multimedia presentations, and simulations among others. Group discussions allow students to interact with each other that have helped us to tap into our interpersonal intelligence a skill that is important beyond the classroom. Multimedia presentations such as PowerPoint presentation enables those of us who are better at learning visually understand a topic better. Our instructors provide us with choices by allowing us to choose a topic of discussion for our essay writing assignments. For instance, they allow us to choose an organization of our interest for certain assignments then discuss the assignment using this organization. They also provide us with a selection of books and materials to use in our assignments. They allow us to complete research on a topic of their choice within our area of study and report back to the class. By actively engaging us in the learning process using the above practices and many more, I am able to take a deep learning approach.
Most of my instructors use deep learning approaches. However, some surface learning approaches noted include; assessing our assignments for independent facts using short answer questions, emphasizing coverage of a topic at the expense of depth, and having a short assessment cycle.
The online surveys tell me that I can use several methods to enhance learning among my students. For instance, I should engage my students in the learning process as it increases their attention and focus. It also motivates them to engage in higher level of critical thinking as well as promote meaningful learning experiences. A student-centered approach increases opportunities for student engagement that results to achieving of course learning objectives for both the instructor and the students. Teachers should prepare ahead for classroom discussions in order to have a clear focus for the discussion and address important topics from a number of perspectives. They should also design effective evaluation strategies for their students’ and provide meaningful feedback.
My greatest worry is on how to handle students who do not value their education. I belive that students interested in learning are easy to handle since most of them have some focus on the learning process in order to achieve their personal and professional goals. However, those not interested in learning and have just been pushed by their parents to obtain degrees are a difficult lot to handle. I may be willing to help them but as long as they are not interested in the learning process and have no set goals it remains a challenge for me as a teacher who wants to see all her students achieve academic success and obtain careers of their choice. ...
Adults education is considered one of the less structured, ill-defined fields in terms of practices and competences that professionals should behold to operate within. This is particularly the case of intergenerational and family learning; the problem of the “private” sphere of learning, as well as the very informal nature of this type of learning requires more research to understand how to shape practices and which skills the educators should have. In this initial phase of our research, we contend that Learning Design, as practice that supports educators in capturing and representing the own (situated) plans of action within educational interventions, can be a key element to develop educators professionalism, towards quality and effectiveness of adults’ education. We support this assumption with the introduction of our training approach, where adults’ educators are invited to implement a creative/reflective process of five stages; every stage introduces tools for representing as part of the Learning Design approach; furthermore, trainers are encouraged to go beyond representing, by sharing and commenting other trainers’ designs. According to this approach, two elements of professionalism are promoted: At the level of the single educator, and at the at the level of the community of adults’ educators.
Initial QuestionLeadership Please respond to the followi.docxlanagore871
Initial Question
"Leadership"
Please respond to the following:
Examine the concept of participatory leadership. Propose three ways to engage in participatory leadership.
Evaluate three specific qualities of your leadership style. Examine why you feel comfortable with that approach to leadership.
Peer Response:
Participatory Leadership practices help shape the future of education in terms of possibilities and opportunities. Participatory Leadership practices and theories help us reflect on the pitfalls of oppositional talking or debating and the creative power of true dialogue. There are many ways to engage in participatory leadership (Schlechty, 2009). First participatory leadership it enables us to work with large groups using relatively minimal resources and generate meaningful information to inform evaluation design and practice. It can bring tremendous strengths to our evaluation practices as it incorporates skills to engage groups and communities in an inspiring way around what to do with the current struggles of our educational system. Second engagement is team building through collaborative efforts. The leader guides his team to produce an enterprise that is a result of group accomplish (Schlechty, 2009). To do this, he must meld a mix of diverse workers with sometimes conflicting ideas and methods. Final way to engage in participatory leadership is by engaging with other by allowing the input of suggestions of others. Participatory leadership is not a goal. It is a strategy for achieving a goal efficient delivery of quality goods and services by unlocking the human capital within the organization (ARCHIVE, 1990).
My leadership style is forever transforming to fit the needs of students, educators, and team members. Three qualities of my leadership style are a commitment, strategically focused, and, dependence on God. It is critically important that you be able to paint a vivid picture of where your group or organization is headed. In the end, you should use the vision to motivate and guide action. Make your vision a shared one with your group. I feel comfortable with my approach to leadership because it sets the tone and approach for my organization. Great leaders are aware of their own style and make the effort to learn how their style comes across to their team. They learn to flex their leadership style to individual team members so that they communicate and behave in ways that motivate and inspire. My leadership style stands forever transforming to fit the needs of students, educators, and team members.

Req#1Children who watch Television spend less time reading or draw.docxlaurieellan
Req#1
Children who watch Television spend less time reading or drawing than children who don’t.
Paper of Minimum 1500 words of Language Development Hypotheses: ' Children who watch Television spend less time reading or drawing than children who don’t.'
. The Paper is to include a discussion, based on a minimum of three articles, books or chapters in a book (excluding the class Textbook), which describe, discuss, support and/or refute the hypothesis. A minimum of three citations with references in APA format will be included at the end of the paper.
Also at the end of the paper will be included a short Appendix which will answer three questions:
1. What were the databases used to find each article. (For example in the Communicative Disorders Multisearch example shown below we searched ten Data Bases but found most of our articles inPubMed.)
2. What was the search strategy which was used, i.e., the search words used in each database to find the articles. (In the example below, we used the terms “Television and (Language Development). We put the last two terms in brackets so that the computer would link Television to both terms and not just “Language.”)
3. Was each article cited an example of Primary or Secondary research? As defined by the Library at UC Berkley, “Primary sources were either created during the time period being studied, or were created at a later date by a participant in the events being studied (as in the case of memoirs) and they reflect the individual viewpoint of a participant or observer. Primary sources enable the researcher to get as close as possible to what actually happened during an historical event or time period.”
“ A secondary source is a work that interprets or analyzes an historical event or phenomenon. It is generally at least one step removed from the event. Examples include scholarly or popular books and articles, reference books, and textbooks.”
Req# 2--TECHNOLOGY APPLICATION AND PRACTICE:
An Annotated Bibliography will be developed including Five (100 word minimum) Annotated Citations. With the exception of the first, these will be based on topics obtained from the Language Development Hypotheses in the list provided at the end.
The First annotated citation will be on the Topic of the “Legal and Ethical Dimensions of the Use of Information.” This information can be obtained from the Internet using a search engine such as Google Scholar. The annotated citation should be in APA format and should include the URL (address) of the of the internet site. The annotation should provide an overview of the discussion and/or list the most critical points.
The second two of these citations will be obtained through Databases of professional books and journals available online through the CSUN Library. For more information on how to find these databases please see the discussion in the Class Requirements Section Online. These citations will be reported in APA format. Included in the annot.

Req#1Children who watch Television spend less time reading or draw.docxlaurieellan
Req#1
Children who watch Television spend less time reading or drawing than children who don’t.
Paper of Minimum 1500 words of Language Development Hypotheses: ' Children who watch Television spend less time reading or drawing than children who don’t.'
. The Paper is to include a discussion, based on a minimum of three articles, books or chapters in a book (excluding the class Textbook), which describe, discuss, support and/or refute the hypothesis. A minimum of three citations with references in APA format will be included at the end of the paper.
Also at the end of the paper will be included a short Appendix which will answer three questions:
1. What were the databases used to find each article. (For example in the Communicative Disorders Multisearch example shown below we searched ten Data Bases but found most of our articles inPubMed.)
2. What was the search strategy which was used, i.e., the search words used in each database to find the articles. (In the example below, we used the terms “Television and (Language Development). We put the last two terms in brackets so that the computer would link Television to both terms and not just “Language.”)
3. Was each article cited an example of Primary or Secondary research? As defined by the Library at UC Berkley, “Primary sources were either created during the time period being studied, or were created at a later date by a participant in the events being studied (as in the case of memoirs) and they reflect the individual viewpoint of a participant or observer. Primary sources enable the researcher to get as close as possible to what actually happened during an historical event or time period.”
“ A secondary source is a work that interprets or analyzes an historical event or phenomenon. It is generally at least one step removed from the event. Examples include scholarly or popular books and articles, reference books, and textbooks.”
Req# 2--TECHNOLOGY APPLICATION AND PRACTICE:
An Annotated Bibliography will be developed including Five (100 word minimum) Annotated Citations. With the exception of the first, these will be based on topics obtained from the Language Development Hypotheses in the list provided at the end.
The First annotated citation will be on the Topic of the “Legal and Ethical Dimensions of the Use of Information.” This information can be obtained from the Internet using a search engine such as Google Scholar. The annotated citation should be in APA format and should include the URL (address) of the of the internet site. The annotation should provide an overview of the discussion and/or list the most critical points.
The second two of these citations will be obtained through Databases of professional books and journals available online through the CSUN Library. For more information on how to find these databases please see the discussion in the Class Requirements Section Online. These citations will be reported in APA format. Included in the annot.

If you were working for a national survey organization doing a general public survey of young adults and older adults, what topics and questions would you design into your survey to elaborate on this finding?
The number of fully employed adults working in the United States is one of the most important economic indicators. The rate of employment affects the federal government, as well as local and state government. Beyond the economic implications, the work one does is one of the primary ways people view and define their identity. The Preacher, in the book of Ecclesiastes, writes, “there is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil” (Ecclesiastes 2:24, ESV Study Bible).
Business Research Methods
, 12
th
edition, states that survey questions contain three categories of questions: administrative questions, classification questions, and target questions (Cooper & Schindler, 2014, p. 302). The right questions will assist the survey organization create a clearer picture of the survey topic. To assist a national survey organization in understanding unemployment rates, the first step is to define the nature of the unemployment. In Gatzia’s exploration, “The Problem of Unemployment”, the author explains that there are three types of unemployment in a capitalist system, cyclical, structural, and frictional.
Cyclical unemployment corresponds to business cycles – it typically results from recessions. Structural unemployment occurs when the jobs that are available do not match with the skill sets of the unemployed workers – it typically results from international competition or technological changes. Frictional unemployment corresponds to the turnover of labor – it typically results either from job loss or increases in the number of people entering the workforce (Gatzia, 2012, p. 37).
Based upon this expanded understanding of unemployment, among the topics to address in the survey should include:
·
Geographic location
·
Previous employment
·
Race / Ethnic identity
Previous salary / average pay
Additionally, the survey should investigate the circumstances that surround the severing of unemployment. For younger workers, it is more likely that the end of employment is mutual; the work may be seasonal or school-related. The job may be entry-level, unskilled work that is not central to the worker’s life, or is not highly valued. According to Popescu, “youth unemployment is heavily concentrated among the least educated” (Popescu, 2014, p. 36). To fully understand unemployment, any survey of the subject must include in-depth questions about the respondent’s educational background and skill level. The survey should ask:
·
Does the respondent have a high school .

Reorganizing a company can be very difficult and time consuming. It involves various resources including human interactions as well as monetary investments. Reorganization can deal with adding to present knowledge as well as utilizing and creating new methods and techniques. It can also involve changes in the communication flow and responsibilities.

Through an internet search, identify a multinational company and present its current organizational chart
Select a method of reorganization and create the new organizational chart.
Provide your rationale for the changes made including why it is efficient, how is this better financially and for human resources.

The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

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

Week Lecture to use for information
Implementation
In previous weeks, you learned how to conduct an effective
training needs assessment and initial steps of designing
training, especially designing outcome-oriented learning
objectives that become the road map for the next phases of
training. You read the Domtar case and how Raymond Royer,
the CEO, took initiative to develop employees; how he focused
on developing strategic direction and specific goals that focused
on (a) return on investment and (b) customer service. You also
learned about appropriate training methods selection in the
design and development phases.
The delivery methods and implementation of training are
critical for the success of training in terms of employees’
engagement and motivation to learn. It is important to
understand individuals’ learning styles to decide what methods
are appropriate for a particular group of learners. To be more
effective, training should include multiple training methods
(e.g. lectures, brain storming, group work, discussions, role
play, case analysis, simulations and games) and activities to
2. motivate learners who have different types of learning styles,
preferences, learning goals and personal expectations. Learner
engagement is the key to learning. There are various methods
you can use to engage and motivate learners for better results,
such as role play, discussion, on-the-job training, simulation,
self-directed learning, business games, case studies, team work,
behavior modeling, etc.
Styles of Learning
People have different styles of learning. These learning styles
help them to acquire new information and knowledge. There are
many different learning styles but for simplicity they can be
broken down into four major categories.

Written Word
- Knowledge is acquired best through the written word.
Reading is the preferred way of gaining knowledge.
Auditory
- Listening to presented information and retaining the major
portion of what has been heard.
Visual
- Seeing pictures, diagrams, and illustrations enables the
learner to grasp the concepts being presented.
Kinesthetic/Tactile
- Involves touch and manipulative activities. Requires eye-
hand-body coordination.
As you select a delivery method you need to keep in mind that
3. by varying the methods you will be focusing on the different
learning styles of your participants.
The outputs of the development phase serve as inputs to the
implementation phase. The implementation phase’s output is the
trainees’ response to training, the trainees’ learning, their
behavior back on the job, and its effect on key organizational
outcomes. These outcomes, combined with the process
evaluations, flow back to the proper constituencies within the
training area and the rest of the organization.

Roles of the trainer: Instructor vs. Facilitator
Instructing and facilitating are two different activities. They
require some of the same skills, and some different skills. A
trainer in the role of instructor is often a content expert, while a
facilitator is a process expert. An instructor uses lecture,
conducts demonstrations, supervises skill practice, and corrects
the learners’ mistakes. A facilitator leads discussions and helps
participants learn from their own experiences and shared
information. The trainer, as instructor, might lead a discussion
about course content; a facilitator will focus more on the
process of a discussion. This table shows some of the common
differences between the role of a trainer as an instructor and a
facilitator:
Trainer as...
Instructor
Facilitator
Focus is on:
What
is discussed – to get the work of the group done
How
the discussion progresses – to hold the group together and foster
4. ownership
Attention is on:
Content and task
Objective/purpose
Result/outcome
Methods and process
Participation
Group dynamics
Knowledge needed:
Subject matter expertise
Group dynamics expertise
Competencies:
Prepares for instruction
Sets a learning environment

Conducts learning activities, demonstrations, skill practice, etc.
Gives feedback to learner
Handles problem learners
Evaluates skill performance
Uses audiovisuals
Plan meetings using an agenda
Seta a productive climate and begins a discussion

Adult Learning
As stated by Wlodkowski and cited by Kelly (2006), there are
three phases of learning which are interdependent on each other
to produce an atmosphere conducive to learning. The process
5. begins with the establishment of a positive attitude, followed by
a stimulating experience that engages the learner and concludes
with demonstration of competence and positive feedback that
reinforces the learning (Kelly, 2006). Providing a learning
environment specifically designed to motivate adult learners is
essential and does not stop at simply gaining the attention of the
audience; it must also keep the attention to truly facilitate
learning. Andragogy, according to Kelly (2006), is the “first
learning theory specifically designed for adults” and
incorporates the idea that the learning process is uniquely
affected by life experiences (p. 44). Following the premise that
learning is self-directed, Andragogy finds that “information
must be used soon after its presentation for adults to accept and
absorb the learning” (Kelly, 2006, p. 44). Adult learners are
purpose-oriented, seeking information to develop skills that
have direct application.
It is essential to incorporate the theories of Andragogy into the
training methods of adult learners. By focusing information that
has specific application and taking into consideration the life
experiences that they bring may influence their process of
learning, one can incorporate training experiences that produce
the greatest outcome for adult learners. Blanchard and Thacker
(2013) touch on the affect that life experience and differing
KSA’s have on the ability to control the learning environment.
They state that the differences that can be viewed as hindrances
should actually be embraced and can create value to the
learning environment if the participants are willing to share
their KSA’s and life experiences (Blanchard & Thacker, 2010).
Understanding what motivates adult learners and how they
process the information has a huge impact on the type of
training methods to choose. Since the first adult learning theory
was developed, it has been argued that adults learn differently
because, among other things, they bring with them experiences
that children do not. Andragogy (how adults learn) differs from
Pedagogy (how children learn) in that pedagogy does not
address prior experiences. To this extent we can say that they
6. are different, however, even with young learners, andragogical
or a mix of andragogical-pedagogical approaches, work better
than purely pedagogical ones. The reason for this is simple; we
retain and understand better those things that relate to our
experience or real world situations. Knowles coined the term
andragogy but he evolved in his views. His most recent
conclusion is that the use of andragogical and pedagogical
principles is to be determined by the situation and not the age of
the learner.
Transfer of training is the effective application of the skills and
concepts presented during training. In other words, transfer of
training is the reason we train in the first place. There are many
barriers to the effective transfer of training. Participants may
not be willing or ready to learn; supervisors and coworkers may
not make it easy to apply new skills in the workplace; or there
may simply be too many distractions when returning to work to
even remember that training ever happened. Many researchers
(Wenz & Adams, 1991) in the field of adult education agree that
there are four sources, in addition to the design and delivery of
the training, that influence the amount of transfer of training
that takes place. The four sources of influence are:
Participants
Trainers
Direct supervisors
The organization
Each of these sources can cause the transfer of training to
increase or decrease. For example, participants can be willing to
learn. Supervisors can ignore or reinforce the training. Trainers
can make the training relevant, and the organization can offer a
climate that is conducive to change and minimize the risk
involved in trying new skills.
Another idea researchers agree on is that barriers can be created
or eliminated before, during, and after training occurs (Broad &
Newstrom, 1992). This means what happens before training and
after training is as important, if not more important, than what
happens during the training experience. As a trainer, you can
7. make it easier for participants to benefit from training by
focusing on learning effectiveness. That means ensuring that
everything about the training is driven by specific learning
outcomes.
Skills needed in the first phase (analysis) included analyzing
needs to determine priorities and the ability to determine
whether training or some other intervention is required. Skills
needed in designing and developing learning in the second and
third phase included, understanding of adult learning theory and
principles in developing a curriculum, the ability to apply
blended learning solutions such as online, classroom, on-the-job
training, etc. and establish effective learning objectives. In
implementation, presenting and facilitating skills are necessary
to arrange environments for learning, align learning
methodologies with learner styles and preferences, demonstrate
effective presentation skills, understand group dynamics, and
even manage difficult participants. And lastly, in evaluating,
another set of skills are required, namely developing evaluation
instruments such as questionnaires and tests, and analyzing
evaluation results.
