3) Establishing clear routines and procedures is essential for classroom management and allowing lessons and activities to run smoothly. New teachers must also be organized and reasonable in their expectations as they gain experience.

Congratulations, your students are now ready to develop plans for their chosen career and implement them!
From the previous session, they were able to identify their strengths and weaknesses, and analyzed opportunities and threats that run with them. They also learned that SWOT is not only an effective tool for business but is also beneficial for job seekers and students like them who aim to climb the career and success ladder.
In this module, they will learn the step by step procedure in making plans depending on their timeframe. This will assure them of a more structured and reliable implementation of plans that will lead to achieving goals. Finally, this session will enable them to focus their talents, skills, and values to the career and life plans that they dream of.
So, let us now take off and begin their future today!
Forms of business ownership
This lesson plan compares partnerships and corporations. Students will complete a mini-quiz on partnerships and corporations to assess their current knowledge.

They will reflect on the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. The goal is for students to understand the differences between various forms of business ownership.
Internship experience
The document outlines the requirements and expectations for completing an internship through the mass communication department. Students must complete at least 240 hours of work with an approved organization, keep a daily log of their experiences, and write a 5-6 page paper reflecting on their internship.

Week 2 Homework Hints
Overview
This week the homework is rather more difficult than last week. What is different this week from last week is that most questions require a calculation or the understanding of the formula. That said most of the questions are straight forward. There are a few tricky ones though!
These questions deal with:
Days receivable
Fixed Asset Turnover ratio
P/E ratio, EPS and Stock price computation
Alternative Financing Needed (AFN)
Contribution margin
Days receivable ratio
(aka Days Sales Outstanding)
This ratio considers the frequency with which the company collects on its outstanding Credit Sales in terms of number of days. There are two parts to this calculation: Accounts Receivable (A/R) Turnover, and then the Days Receivable.
Step 1:
A/R Turnover = Credit Sales ÷ Average A/R
A/R turnover represents the number of times the A/R is collected in a year.
Step 2:
Days Sales = 365 days ÷ A/R turnover
Days Sales Outstanding takes the A/R turnover and restates it into the number of days.
Fixed Asset Turnover ratio
This ratio helps analysts determine how efficiently a company uses its fixed assets to generate income.
Fixed assets are things like buildings, equipment, land, etc. They are long-term assets that benefit the company for more than one year. Fixed assets re sometimes called PP&E which stands for property, plant and equipment.
Fixed Asset TO = Net sales ÷ Net PP&E
The “Net” is important in the denominator because it means that the total value of the PP&E must be adjusted for depreciation.
P/E ratio and stock price
(questions #12 & 13)
The Price to Earnings ratio tells us the ratio of a company’s stock price to its per share of earnings (EPS).
EPS is the portion of Net Income that is available for each share of outstanding common stock.
EPS = (Net Income – Dividends) ÷ # of shares outstanding
and
P/E ratio = stock price / EPS
If we know the P/E ratio and the EPS, we can determine the stock price:
Stock price = P/E ratio x EPS
Additional Funds Needed (AFN)
question #14
When a company is forecasting its revenue and needs into the future, it usually creates Pro Forma financial statements. These statements take the goals and expectations that the company has and turns them into dollar amounts on financial statements. If a company expects to grow at a certain rate, and have costs that are a certain amount, it must be able to predict if it can pay for all of its needs. In many cases it cannot and it must seek external financing. We can compute how much external financing is need by simply making sure that the Balance Sheet balances. Remember, Assets = Liabilities + Equity.
So, if we know the net income, the projected increase in assets and projected liabilities plus the retention ratio, we can compute the amount of Additional Funds Needed. The retention ratio is the ratio of the net income that the company keeps and does not pay out as.

For each type of intelligence, it describes how people with that intelligence tend to learn best and provides examples of teaching activities and materials that align with that intelligence. It concludes with discussion questions about how to study for the GRE vocabulary section and teach integers, as well as scenarios asking how to help different students based on their likely learning styles.

The document provides guidance on setting up informational interviews, including introducing yourself via email, preparing questions to ask, conducting yourself professionally during the meeting, and following up with a thank you. The overall aim is to learn from someone else's experiences.

The pitch should be 350 words or less. 2) Partner interview practice where each person interviews the other for 10 minutes about their AmeriCorps experience or desired career, asking 6-8 questions.

Informational interviews & networking
This document provides guidance on conducting informational interviews and networking to help with career opportunities. It recommends informational interviews because job postings do not represent all openings, and networking can shorten hiring processes and reduce competition. The three steps are to research the contact thoroughly, plan questions to learn about the contact's career progression and expertise, and show professionalism in the interview. Questions should focus on understanding the contact's work history and identifying their pain points or challenges in the industry. The goal is to ask for referrals to other helpful contacts and agree on follow up protocols.
