LEADERSHIP AND COLLABORATION IN TEACHING 2
Students with disabilities need special attention when it comes to learning. Inclusive
learning has been adopted by many teachers across the world. This is where they would prefer
students with disabilities to learn in general classrooms alongside with non-disabled students.
Special education teachers should serve as leaders who assists general education teachers in
learning the needs of the students with disabilities. (Mulholland & O'Connor 2016). And how they
are supposed to be treated in order to have a good understanding of subjects as mathematics.
The teachers have an opportunity to demonstrate collaborative leadership and make sure
that students are satisfied from their mode of teaching. Team teaching is important in inclusive
learning. It helps special needs children have social interactions with their peers hence gaining
positivity. There have been collaboration models that teachers are using in order to be successful
in their activities and satisfying the needs of the students.
The learning center collaboration model is important as different teachers gather in a room
where students are arranged into groups. Special needs students help in giving instructions to other
teachers on how to handle the mild disabled students. The other model is the alternative
collaboration setting where special education teachers may work with paraeducators and ensure
that the student programs are followed. (De Melendez & Beck 2018). Students are divided into
small groups hence getting a chance with their instructors one on one. Inclusive learning will give
a chance to the mild disabled students to learn how to solve mathematical problems easily. This is
because they are interacting with other students under good guidance from different teachers and
paraeducators.
Teachers should adopt ways to come up with a safe and inclusive environment to students
with disabilities. They should encourage all students to be one’s keeper even outside classrooms.
This way, students who are fast learners will help students with mild disabilities to solve

mathematical problems. Second, they should encourage students based on life experiences. Show
them that anything is achievable when it comes to the real world. (Ismail & Muhammad 2018). By
doing this, teachers will help in creating an environment which is culturally responsive with good
social interactions and better learning activities.

Struggling students in mathematics need some intervention strategies to help them develop
positive attitude towards math and improve their performance. Tutors however need to connect
with their students. Establishing a good relationship with your students will enable them open up
on the areas they are facing problems. (Morin & Raver 2017). I have continued to work with my
mentor teacher in creating an intervention plan for the 15 students who had struggles in solving
math problems in clinical field experience B.
We have identified different levels of intervention strategies. They will help students in
understanding the context, apply them in solving multi-step math problems. The strategies will
also guide me in content delivery. In clinical field B we had looked at two intervention strategies;
monitoring the students progress and giving feedback them feedback in order to motivate them to
continue with the spirit of working hard. (Rubie-Davies & Rosenthal 2015). I have given the
students the assignments that they are supposed to tackle so that I can observe their progress. For
this lesson I have identified other three intervention strategies that will help students in tackling
multi-step mathematical problems.
The first intervention strategy for struggling students is providing students with rich ideas
during math lesson. This will help students to fully understand the context and get knowledge on
how to handle math procedures. The second strategy is providing step by step instructions to help
the struggling students know how to tackle problems in each step. Clear instructions are important
since they make math language easier. Last, practicing basic facts. I will guide them on how to
handle arithmetic daily during their free time to get used to math problems. (Morin & Raver 2017).
This will increase their confidence and speed hence overall performance improvement. I will use
these strategies even in my future professional practice to motivate my students to getting higher
grades.

However, I need materials and procedures for better implementation of the intervention
strategies. I will need various mathematical textbooks in order to learn different ideas on helping
struggling students. In the second strategy of providing clear instructions to students, I will need

In this Presentation, we will explore a fundamental aspect of mathematics education: the impact of manipulatives on conceptual understanding versus rote learning.
As the language of logic and reasoning, mathematics serves as the basis for many other academic fields as well as real-world applications. We will discuss how two distinct teaching approaches influence students' understanding and mathematical skill.
We'll concentrate on using manipulatives, those tangible tools that help make abstract ideas come to life—as well as the traditional rote learning method, which includes memorization done repeatedly.
The goal of our exploration is not only to understand how manipulatives and rote learning affect students' conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills, but also to assess the success of each method in developing mathematical competence in learners.

Strategies Summary
The strategies chosen can establish an environment of learning in different ways. Directly involving the learner during the discussion fosters a good learning by bringing close the attention of the learner. The learner would not divert his/her attention. This would establish a good teacher-learner relationship. Giving tasks and assignments helps to establish a favorable learning environment. The learner would be eager to learn different ways of answering a particular question. In this way, a leaning environment is established. (Jonassen & Land, 2012) highlights different ways in which a teacher can establish not just a learning environment but a favorable learning environment for a learner to be in a position to understand what he/she is being taught.
The process of sharing objectives with students can help to create a culture of self-directed learning. When a student gets to understand the objectives, he/she is able to set for himself/herself person.
The Comparative Study Between The Cooperative Learning Model Of Numbered Head...iosrjce
This research aims to explain the differences between the cooperative learning model of Numbered
Heads Together (NHT) and Student Team Achievement Division (STAD) to the learning achievement of the
eighth grade students in social subject at SMP Negeri 5 Jombang. The population in this study was 66 students

1. Many have been involved in debates about effective teaching in American schools. When you think of effective teaching, what comes to your mind first and why?
The question will be directed toward the parent and community-focused group. For a long, researchers have conducted studies to determine the qualities of good teachers and effective teaching strategies. In most studies, teacher perspectives on teaching effectiveness have varied depending on their schools' location, race, ...
One objective of mathematics learning is to solve problem and to communicate idea to get a solution. Human life is inseparable from social activity, including cooperation. Similarly, in mathematics learning sometimes students need friends to discuss with in solving mathematics problem. Cooperative learning model can be an alternative to bridge the difficulty the students encounter. The objective of research was to identify the impact of Think Pair Share type of Cooperative learning model on mathematics learning in elementary school. This study was a descriptive qualitative research. The subject of research was the fifth graders of three elementary schools in Karangpandan Sub District. Techniques of collecting data used were observation, interview, and documentation. Observation was conducted to observe the learning process using Think Pair Share-type of cooperative learning, interview to find out the impression and the impact the students experience, and documentation to find out the group’s work. The conclusion of research showed that there are some impacts found in mathematics learning using Think Pair Share type of cooperative learning related to: (1) group establishment; (2) learning environment; (3) learning achievement; (4) student participation; (5) information exchange; and (6) interpersonal relation.

What does it mean to be an effective manager in a diverse workforce?
According to Chip Conley, the workforce diversity is characterized of gender, ethnicity and age; which needs a much keener attention. He points out that an effective manager should realize that age diversity makes a company stronger and that different generations within a workplace should focus on mentoring one another at work. He emphasizes on the need to allow openness with one another so that wisdom; knowledge, experience and skills from the young to the old and vice versa. According to Chip Conley, the current 60s is the new 40s and that the current 30s is the new 50s; a key note to take on how effective relationship in a workplace could enrichen a company with greater shared wisdom and skills. Every manager need to relate such knowledge in ensuring effective making of modern elders from the millennials.
According to Chip, an effective manager should establish a learning environment for the boomers and the millennials. Each generation should see the other as assets from which they can derive wisdom. Moreover, Chip calls for both the millennials and the boomers to fix their ego, perhaps so that they can enhance their relationship and get to learn from one another. He calls for the need of the managers to enhance a growth mindset in a workplace and the need for the employees to be curious of getting to know what the other generation can offer, and trying to oneself. Chip states that “Curiosity is the elixir for life”
Working on the psychological empowerment of specifics groups and ensuring mental flexibility is very important for various generations to work coherently effectively. Additionally, a manager in charge of a diverse workforce should ensure that the differences existing between the BB and X generations, and the Y and Z generations should be harmonized so that they do not tamper with the achievement of the organizations set goals and objectives (Toro, Labrador-Fernández & De Nicolas, 2019).
Maintaining a positive working environment helps in enhancing the performance of a diverse workforce. Looking at the small business managers, workforce diversity can be well managed if the owner’s manager supports the existing generational interconnections and the variations as a result of the general difference defining these groups by valuing their differences and the similarities. An effective manager is therefore required to cause a diversity openness among the workforce. Such ensure the performance at all levels, i.e. both the organizational and individual. A manager should, therefore, have the ability to effectively enforce the eradication of the internal communication barriers existing as a result generational, racial, gender, ethnic, age, personality tenure, cognitive style, education among other dissimilarities .

Introduction
Background of the Research
Innovation plays a critical role in assisting businesses to sustain and grow their market
shares. It takes place in dissimilar functions and parts of the business and it is significant to
understand the best way to create and manage it effectively. Digital technologies have been
regularly used in business and this has led to digitized workplaces that demand the need to invent
to remain at the top in the market (Kay & Willman, 2018). Digitizing places of work has played
a key role in changing the way business is usually managed and this has similarly affected how
innovation must be managed and embraced in such a novel business atmosphere. Therefore, the
best way to understand technological innovation in the digital business atmosphere is the need to
understand how technology has been shaping the business world.
The reason for choosing technological innovation in digital business environments is that
business owners play a critical role in the identification and application of new technologies. By
investing in initiatives that permit them to deliver efficient and effective services and products,
they discover innovative solutions to complex challenges (Camisón & Villar-López, 2014).
Successful technological innovation needs collaboration, expert project management, planning,
and execution. Worldwide competition and rigorous demand to bring commodities to market
very fast affect decisions.

Central Question:
How can the gaps in college readiness between students from low-income and underserved communities and those from wealthy and majority groups be eliminated?
Focus Group Question
1. Many have been involved in debates about effective teaching in American schools. When you think of effective teaching, what comes to your mind first and why?
The question will be directed toward the parent and community-focused group. For a long, researchers have conducted studies to determine the qualities of good teachers and effective teaching strategies. In most studies, teacher perspectives on teaching effectiveness have varied depending on their schools' location, race, ...
One objective of mathematics learning is to solve problem and to communicate idea to get a solution. Human life is inseparable from social activity, including cooperation. Similarly, in mathematics learning sometimes students need friends to discuss with in solving mathematics problem. Cooperative learning model can be an alternative to bridge the difficulty the students encounter. The objective of research was to identify the impact of Think Pair Share type of Cooperative learning model on mathematics learning in elementary school. This study was a descriptive qualitative research. The subject of research was the fifth graders of three elementary schools in Karangpandan Sub District. Techniques of collecting data used were observation, interview, and documentation. Observation was conducted to observe the learning process using Think Pair Share-type of cooperative learning, interview to find out the impression and the impact the students experience, and documentation to find out the group’s work. The conclusion of research showed that there are some impacts found in mathematics learning using Think Pair Share type of cooperative learning related to: (1) group establishment; (2) learning environment; (3) learning achievement; (4) student participation; (5) information exchange; and (6) interpersonal relation.

What does it mean to be an effective manager in a diverse workforce?
According to Chip Conley, the workforce diversity is characterized of gender, ethnicity and age; which needs a much keener attention. He points out that an effective manager should realize that age diversity makes a company stronger and that different generations within a workplace should focus on mentoring one another at work. He emphasizes on the need to allow openness with one another so that wisdom; knowledge, experience and skills from the young to the old and vice versa. According to Chip Conley, the current 60s is the new 40s and that the current 30s is the new 50s; a key note to take on how effective relationship in a workplace could enrichen a company with greater shared wisdom and skills. Every manager need to relate such knowledge in ensuring effective making of modern elders from the millennials.
According to Chip, an effective manager should establish a learning environment for the boomers and the millennials. Each generation should see the other as assets from which they can derive wisdom. Moreover, Chip calls for both the millennials and the boomers to fix their ego, perhaps so that they can enhance their relationship and get to learn from one another. He calls for the need of the managers to enhance a growth mindset in a workplace and the need for the employees to be curious of getting to know what the other generation can offer, and trying to oneself. Chip states that “Curiosity is the elixir for life”
Working on the psychological empowerment of specifics groups and ensuring mental flexibility is very important for various generations to work coherently effectively. Additionally, a manager in charge of a diverse workforce should ensure that the differences existing between the BB and X generations, and the Y and Z generations should be harmonized so that they do not tamper with the achievement of the organizations set goals and objectives (Toro, Labrador-Fernández & De Nicolas, 2019).
Maintaining a positive working environment helps in enhancing the performance of a diverse workforce. Looking at the small business managers, workforce diversity can be well managed if the owner’s manager supports the existing generational interconnections and the variations as a result of the general difference defining these groups by valuing their differences and the similarities. An effective manager is therefore required to cause a diversity openness among the workforce. Such ensure the performance at all levels, i.e. both the organizational and individual. A manager should, therefore, have the ability to effectively enforce the eradication of the internal communication barriers existing as a result generational, racial, gender, ethnic, age, personality tenure, cognitive style, education among other dissimilarities .

Introduction
Background of the Research
Innovation plays a critical role in assisting businesses to sustain and grow their market
shares. It takes place in dissimilar functions and parts of the business and it is significant to
understand the best way to create and manage it effectively. Digital technologies have been
regularly used in business and this has led to digitized workplaces that demand the need to invent
to remain at the top in the market (Kay & Willman, 2018). Digitizing places of work has played
a key role in changing the way business is usually managed and this has similarly affected how
innovation must be managed and embraced in such a novel business atmosphere. Therefore, the
best way to understand technological innovation in the digital business atmosphere is the need to
understand how technology has been shaping the business world.
The reason for choosing technological innovation in digital business environments is that
business owners play a critical role in the identification and application of new technologies. By
investing in initiatives that permit them to deliver efficient and effective services and products,
they discover innovative solutions to complex challenges (Camisón & Villar-López, 2014).
Successful technological innovation needs collaboration, expert project management, planning,
and execution. Worldwide competition and rigorous demand to bring commodities to market
very fast affect decisions.

Introduction
The for-profit organization which will be analyzed in this report is a famous casual dining restaurant and bar called Buffalo Wild Wings Restaurant and Sports Bar. This is an international organization which has various outlets in different parts of the world such as in the United States, Mexico, Canada, Panama, India, and the Philippines among other countries. The reason why Buffalo Wild Wings is the target organization for this report is that it recently received a new president, Lyle Tick, who set an objective to improve the brand image of the restaurant so that it can attract more customers (Romeo, 2018). Due to this, the organization is undertaking some changes in its marketing which is an important component of the internal operations of the business. The change of focus is implementing a social media marketing campaign to increase the number of new customers for the restaurant. This report will evaluate different factors, positive and negative issues, and challenges, which can affect the change process as well as analyze different concepts which can be used to improve change management and change process so as to result to the desired outcomes.
Identify the role of strategic renewal in propelling change.
Strategic renewal is important in creating change interventions which will impact the team members and the organization positively. This is an important process which helps change managers to evaluate the existing progress of the change process and focus on how to improve the change process so that the desired outcome may be achieved. One of the roles of strategic renewal in propelling change is by revisiting and improving the change strategies. Strategic renewal ensures that the organization is able to develop a strategic game plan which will be used to promote different growth objectives during change management. This enhances change since the organization is able to focus on having a competitive advantage against other competitors and satisfying the customers’ needs to the best of its abilities. In the case of Buffalo Wild Wing Restaurant, it focused on adopting new growth objective which aimed at attracting more millennial customers to ensure it increases the size of the target market for the restaurant.
Strategic renewal helps in concentrating all the efforts in brainstorming and identification of solutions to challenges which may impact the change action plan. The organization and its employees are able to focus on finding different approaches which can be used to improve the experience resulting from the change process. This pushes change since the organization is able to avoid certain pitfalls which the organizations would have experienced. This aspect has been achieved by Buffalo Wild Wings Restaurant whereby the organization.

District Manager of Five Dunkin’ Donut Franchises
Introduction
As the new District Manager, I intend to build and structure the foundation of workers for all the five Dunkin' Donuts establishments. My goal is to increase the fiscal profits for every unit to establish extra legacies to the company's brand. The paper analyzes the following categories of Dunkin' Donuts: job design including job analysis, job description and job specification, and organizational design. Workers job designs will be assessed with the use of a divisional structure for Bakers, Crewmembers, and managers. Inside of Dunkin' Donuts will be analyzed to decide the needs for recruiting and selecting applicants. Also, the essay discusses the training and performance appraisals for the value of significance to the franchise.
Job Design
Job design refers to the process of organizing duties and roles into a productive unit of work. The job design will include job analysis, job description and job specification. Job design occurs when managers decide the duties to be completed, the people who will do them and the selection approach to be adopted in choosing workers (Reilly, Minnick, & Baack, 2011). Below, I have used job analysis, job description, and job specification to discuss the job design of the five new establishments.
Job Analysis
The process of assigning tasks will be undertaken by the HR department and the departmental managers. I will be adapting the extermination model of job analysis. Every branch will have 5 to 8 workers per shift, with one being a manager, one may be a shift leader and the rest will include crewmembers and bakers. They will be in charge of food handling, housekeeping and sales. Each worker's qualification will include preparing donuts, coffee, frozen meals, and working on the cash register.
Job Description
For job descriptions, the current Dunkin' Donuts models will be appropriate for the Crewmembers, Bakers, and Management (https://www.peopleanswers.com/pa/testSplashPageEntry.do?splashURL=portalDunkinDonuts1&src=825452). Most roles at the organization are entry-level positions, which need filling customer orders through preparing drinks and baked food. Applicants will need to show their readiness to take directions and interact with the clients regularly.
Job Specification
Bakers, Crewmembers, and Shift Leaders – These are the entry-level spots that will need minimal requirements. Basic requirements include at least a High School Diploma (GED or equivalent), inclination to take direction and intermingle with clients, and interpersonal working capabilities. These roles are trainable on the job. The position of shift leader will be achievable by an existing baker or crewmember .

Part I: Research Questions
1. Should student athletes receive a stipend by the universities as reimbursement for participating in sports? Are there policies under the ISSF that guide on how best students should be compensated for their participation in different sports?
2. What challenges do coaches face in managing their respective teams? Is there an approved ISSF standard management structure that would allow coaches to participate and interact more with their players such that they are not only constrained to their managerial duties?
Part II: Research Topic
Problem Statement
Professional athletes earn large sums of money, though considered unethical; due to the fact that most of the times these athletes are students who are “exploited”. The estimated value rose through college athletics is considered to be roughly more than a billion dollars yearly, with this revenue being generated from an estimated 25 football schools and 64 basketball schools respectively (Brown & Williams, 2019). The concern raised is that the students do not get to see the money earned; but instead are offered athletic scholarships, allowing them to get free college education. The concerning factor is that most students use this opportunity as a chance to qualify for professional leagues, without considering the beneficial factors that their education offers. They are continuously to sacrifice their class and study hours such that they can practice and travel for their sports (Brown & Williams, 2019). Even though a scholarship seems like a good deal for some of these college athletes, what criteria is used to reward those athletes who are often viewed as celebrities and exploited for their affiliation with different institution to earn money for them?
Quite often, managers are faced with the dilemma of relating with their athletes mainly because they are absorbed in managerial duties that limit their interactions with their players. As a result, the element of teamwork is ignored and disregarded, leading to lack of communication, lack of trust, and continued conflict, which may affect the effectiveness of the team (Rollnick, Fader, Breckon, & Moyers, 2019). Sometimes the coaches aspect of caring is viewed as interference because there is no connection between the players and their coach, with coaches feeling left out of most decisions made by the players. This in mind, the study focuses on finding new strategies that can be applied by all coaches in every sport, such that the aspect of unity and communication is achieved, with coaches participating more in their respective projects.
Importance of the Study
Given the dynamic scope of this industry, it is important to do more research to understand the depth of the dilemma within the industry, with the use of previous and current research to provide insight on different pers.

Managerial Accounting
Accounting can be defined as the procedure of keeping monetary financial records. Accounting can be group as financial and managerial accounting. For businesses to be successful, they need to be having both managerial and financial accounting experts. Impeccable managerial and financial bookkeeping are important to the progress and constant survival of any corporate. Structurally, economically, and lawfully, bookkeeping is an essential section in any institute, and the necessity for an extremely skilled accounting squad is unconditionally crucial. Despite the similarities between financial and managerial accounting, there are also differences between them.
The managerial accounting works through measuring, analyzing and reporting monetary and non-monetary information that aids directors to make judgements to accomplish the objectives of an organization. Managerial accounting emphasizes on the internal broadcasting and is not regulated by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management accounting is known for its much efforts to focus on the future rather than paying much attention to what happened in the past (Kinicki & Fugate, 2016). This type of accounting is so influential to the performance of directors and other workers as opposed to principally reporting financial events. There are no principles which guide the operations of management accounting.
Management accounting permits executives to charge attention on owners’ principal to aid judge a division’s presentation, although this may not be allowed by generally accepted accounting principles. Managerial accounting comprises assets or liabilities which may not be recognized by generally accepted accounting principles and it makes use of asset or liability quantifying rules like present values or resale prices which is not acceptable under GAAP.
Financial accounting on the other hand emphasizes on commentary to exterior events like shareholders, government interventions, and banks. It evaluates and registers business dealings and provides fiscal reports that are grounded on generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Financial bookkeeping is controlled by commonly accepted accounting principles (Weygandt, Kimmel & Kieso, 2015). Financial accounting comprises of sending monetary reports like income reports or balance sheets, to outside bodies like creditors, tax specialists, shareholders, and the Interior Revenue Service.
The managerial accounting positions out profit and loss accounts, job costing accounts, and operating resources, financial accounting conveys facts only for those on the external who want to decide the company's marketplace assessment. Managerial accounting emphases on issues and answers within an institute while financial accounting is worried with productivity from without. Managerial accountants make internal working reports, while financial accountants generat.

Question (a)
Categorical variables are useful in classifying data that usually takes only one form. An example where categorical variables can be used is when classifying the ages of different individual based on the gender of the participants. The use of n-1 variable in categorical variables makes the classification easier since variables take either of the quantitative provided. In these situations, the variables are limited to take either one or zero as the quantitative value to ease the classification process (Bühlmann & Dezeure, 2016). Classification based on n-1 variable tends to be faster and also saves time and does not have many problems. When a particular variable takes 1 is assumed to be quantitative but when it takes zero the assumption made is that the variable is absent. Categorical variables involving n variables, the n-1 variables are the only important variables since they classify the data given accordingly to the required quantitative values which I either 1 or 0.
Classification of information based on categorical valuables, the n variables tend to have problems. The n value can sometimes lead to problems that may end up prolonging the classification process and also make it difficult. The n variable has problem in resulting to multi-co linearity in classifying (Guo & Berkhahn, 2016). The problem results when there is similar interconnections between the variables this create a problem in interpreting the information. The interconnection of the n variables can result in the prediction of the other variable from the other. Another problem resulting in from categorical variables is that n variable is intuitively meaning that variables can be classified based on the interests or feelings of the research. Lastly, the n variables are redundant that is do not have updated information.
Question (b)
In statistics, logistic regressions are used in classification of variable that tend to have different forms either positive or negative values. Logistic regressions classify data consisting of dependent variables with and more than two or more independent variables. The classifications are based on pacing several variables at their different level of existence (van Smeden et al., 2016). Logistic regression predict the relationship of variables that can either take 1or 0 in the classification. Logistic regressions is concerned in giving descriptions to the data and give detailed information relationship between one independent variable and more nominal independent variables. For instance, logistic regression can be used in financial institutions to clarify financial defaulters. In classification of the data, logistic re.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss how motivation can improve outcomes in congestive heart failure (CHF). CHF is a chronic progressive condition that affects the pumping ability of the heart muscles. This paper will cover CHF as a practice problem, the role of evidence to in regard to CHF, and the role of the DNP practice scholar in the translation of evidence.
Addressing issues related to CHF management through education program is important in the improvement of self-management. Most of the reported readmission cases, morbidity, and mortality are associated with poor self-care and self-management of the diseases. The focus of most healthcare facilities when it comes to the management of the CHF is focused on an identified medication regimen, and little to no attention is given to the importance of patient education to improve self-management of CHF.
A study by Bader et al (2018) revealed that an advanced heart failure program helped in the improvement of disease awareness and self-care behaviors when the patients were led by well-trained heart failure nurses. Another study by Howie-Esquivel et al (2015) used the approach of TEACH-HF intervention to manage CHF patients. The study outcome revealed a significantly lower hospital re-admission rate and decrease in the length of stay.
DNP practice scholar play a key role in the translation of evidence. The DNP practice scholar is instrumental in the initiation of projects that focus on the standardized educational process for CHF patients. The initiation is done through the development of new education tools and clinician documentation of evidence-based heart failure care (Myslenski, 2018). Practice Problem and Question
Patient education is becoming an effective process of managing CHF at home. Patient education aids in the improvement of knowledge and self-care behaviors, thereby, reducing the incidence of readmissions cases (Bader, et al., 2018).
Heart failure is a common, high-risk condition that is characterized with high reports hospitalization and sometimes death. This disease affects more than 6.5 million Americans and in 2012 the CDC reported that it cost approximately 30.7 billion dollars to care for CHF patients and wages lost due to hospitalization. Unlike other cardiovascular illnesses, CHF appears to be the most common one and nearly 1 million new cases are being reported annually internationally. This, therefore, makes it the fastest growing cardiovascular disorder (Savarese & Lund, 2017).
This study is guided by the following Picot question: Does the multidisciplinary educational approach work effectively towards the prevention of hospital re-admission for patients diagnosed with congestive heart .

Malware-Trojan horse virus
Malware can be defined as any file or program that is introduced to a computer with the intention of harming the user. The harm to the user can be through interfering with his use of the compute, unauthorized access to his data, locking the user out of his computer and also spying on the user’s activity. There are several types of malware and they include ransom ware, Trojan horses, computer viruses, worms and spyware (White, Fisch & Pooch, 2017). For this particular assignment, I will focus on Trojan horse virus. The name Trojan horse comes from the famous Greek story, where Greek soldiers were able to take down the city of Troy after they sneaked into the city inside a wooden horse that was guised as a gift to the people of Troy. Just like the story the Trojan horse virus disguises itself as a legitimate program however the program provides unauthorized access into the system most of the time to hackers.
Most of the time, Trojan horses gain access to a secured system through social engineering. Most of the time, Trojan horse viruses are introduced into a system by duping a user into executing an attachment on an email guised to be unsuspicious. They can also be introduced via social media where users are tricked into clicking on fake advertisements or advertisements that offer fake rewards. Once the links or attachments are clicked on, a Trojan horse virus is introduced. Trojan horse viruses can allow an attacker to have access to a user’s personal information and other forms of data. Trojan horse viruses can affect other devices on the network through infection caused by the introduction of the first Trojan horse; most ransom ware is introduced through Trojan horse viruses (Wang, Lorch & Parno, 2016). In addition, through the use of Trojan horse viruses, attackers can modify data, copy data, block data, delete data and generally disrupt or distort the performance and operations of targeted computers or devices in a network.
Steps of mitigating a Trojan horse virus attack
The first step in mitigating a Trojan horse virus attack is the installation of effective anti-malware software or what is commonly referred to as an anti-virus. The anti-malware will detect as well as prevent any Trojan horse virus attack on a computer or a network. The second step in mitigating Trojan horse virus attacks is the installation of the latest available patches of the operating system in use. The third step is proper scanning of all external devices that are introduced to a computer or a network (Rader & Rahman, 2015). The fourth step is through the cautioning on the execution of any program th.

In the financial year 2017, the city of New York budgeted for an expenditure of $84 billion (The City of New York, 2017). Los Angeles has a budget of $9.2 billion (City of Los Angeles, 2017). The New York City budget is larger than some of the states in the USA. Both cities are required to ensure they have a balanced budget each year with clear information about the sources of the funds, use of the fund and ensure that the budgetary deficits are clearly financed in each year.
The city of Los Angeles budgets is prepared with several underlying principles that must adhered. The city has a reserve fund, which equals to 5% of the city’s general fund revenues. The capital improvements fund for the city is equal to 1% of the city’s general fund revenue. The city holds that all the funds from one-time sources must be used to finance the one-time expenditures. The city of New York has also established several reserves to take care of uncertainties in the city (City of Los Angeles, 2017). These reserves include the Retiree health benefit trust funds, a general reserve as well as a capital stabilization reserve fund for the city.
Sources of funds
The two cities have almost similar sources of funds for their budgets. These sources of funds, however, have differing contributions to the city’s finances. The table below presents the proportional sources of incomes to the cities.

In the two cities, the property taxes account for the largest source of incomes. In New York, the allocation and distribution from other government and government agencies is the second largest source of income. This is due to the international nature of the city, which hosts major national and international offices. The city of Los Angeles has large commercial enterprises within its jurisdiction that contributed large amount of incomes in form of licenses, fees, and permits compared to New York’s city income from license and fees amounting to only 8% of the overall incomes. The miscellaneous sources of finance include the transfers from the reserve transfers, the special funds .

Foreclosure is a scary word for homeowners, but it is
not all that common today (citation needed). Bortz (2017) reported that the foreclosure rate (meaning the percentage of loans in foreclosure) currently hovers just under 1%. During economic downturns, like the housing crisis of 2011, foreclosure rates rose as high as 3.6% in United State (Bortz, 2017).
Research question
The phenomenon as mentioned above and literature background lead to the overriding research question, “what are the lived experiences of management executives whose companies face foreclosure?” The subareas of exploration for this question are:
i. The manager’s self-care practices
ii. The manager’s relationship with immediate relatives
iii. The manager’s business practices
iv. The manager’s relationships with subordinates
Methodology
In order to investigate the lived experiences of management executives, a phenomenological qualitative method will be employed. The relationships and practices of managers facing company foreclosure are the core of this research. Creswell (2013) discussed that the purpose of a phenomenological qualitative method is to …….
Proposed population
1. The homogenous group for the study is former management executives strictly from the operations department. The selected executives will have a background of having undergone company foreclosure at least once in the past 20 years.
2. Participants will be solicited through enticing advertisements online for filling surveys to participate in a study interview.
3. The number of participants will be restricted to 16 executives aged 35 years or more. Their former positions will be limited to operations management.
Data collection
1. The type of data to be accrued will be unstructured and semi-structured interviews.
2. Participants will be asked to participate in at least two rounds of one-on-one interviews spanning anywhere from 50 to 60 minutes each. Interviews will be conducted in person, by phone, or through an internet source such as Zoom.
3.
Bracketing
I am especially interested in this research question because my research showed scarce primary literature about the impact of company foreclosure on the personal and professional lives of executives’ manager and their families. With many companies facing foreclosure around the globe every year, it is surprising that very little research has been conducted on how they affected the lives of the involved executives. I suspect I may find it useful to know the real potential consequences of organizational shutdown in case I become a manager in the future. Even though one works hoping for the best, preparing for the worst is also a very rational route for any organizational management model.

Major Concerns of Climate Change in China
Introduction
China is one of the critical countries in the world, which are considered to significantly contribute to the issue of climate change. Research indicates that China produces over 6.000 megatons of carbon dioxide every year. The increased concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is associated with increase in global warming, which perpetrates the climate change. To this end, China is regarded as the largest emitter of greenhouse gases across the globe based on absolute terms, contributing to about 22 percent of the total amount of emissions (Held, Nag & Roger, 2011). At the moment, the emissions of the greenhouse gases by China have exceeded the global per capita average, following the growth in the emissions by over 200 percent from 1990 to 2008. The concern of increased greenhouse gases emissions in China is largely associated with the countries appetite for economic growth. The historical growth of the Chinese economy has been tremendously effected through the use of fossil fuels as a major source of energy in industries. Despite the increased desire from the global community to mitigate the impacts of climate change, there is fear that the emission of greenhouse gases in the country may rise by between 55 and 75 by 2025 (Held, Nag & Roger, 2011). Therefore, it is important to discuss the different concerns presented by China regarding the issue of climate change that is tremendously perpetrated by increase in emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
Overview of the Issue of Climate Change in China
The Chinese government has established policies that are aimed at adopting effective governance of climate change, improved domestic capacity of effectively governing the energy use and emissions, as well as supporting the commitments that positively impact decline in future international emissions. China acknowledges the need to lower the emission of greenhouse gases as well as mitigating the impacts of climate change, which is a critical solution towards obtaining a healthier international environment (Lipin, 2016). As a matter of fact, numerous multinational negotiations have been advanced so as to develop a global climate regime that governs the efforts of reducing the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Being among the world’s largest polluters, China has received increase attention from the global community. The country, which has the highest population of over 1.3 billion, has been steadfastly reluctant to comply to the suggestions by international organizations such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) (Held, Nag & Roger, 2011). These organizations have been engaged in pushing for .

INTRODUCTION
Amazon is one of the fastest growing online retailer company in the United States of America that has been able to overhaul its business structure by using innovative strategies in supply chain management. Amazon has left most of its competitors have a hard time trying to catch up. The firm has made huge investments in the management of its inventory to include recent forms of technology to beat its competition. The firm has optimized every link in its supply chain to ensure its customers are satisfied and well attended to (Leblanc, 2019). This paper hence seeks to discuss Amazons supply chain operation factors such as; transport and security, procurement and inventory management, technology and information management, and articulate some of the global risk factors affecting the firm. Comment by TJS: Paragraphs need to be left justified Comment by TJS: Great point here. Amazon is dominating the industry Comment by TJS: Anthropomorphisms should not be utilized. An anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics or behavior to a good, animal, or object.
TRANSPORTATION AND SECURITY
Transportation cost structures, modes, and distribution centers, inventory control systems, and inventory costs reduction strategies
Amazon initially launched a two-day delivery program for its customers to ensure that its customers had fast delivery of products but soon other competitors started catching on. Amazon hence had to make another adjustment in its freight services and now offers a two-hour delivery service to Amazon Prime customers. For product freight, Amazon has equally sub-contracted firms such as the United Parcel Service to transport its products to its customers. Amazon has been relying on third-party couriers to make their deliveries as they have a better-established delivery route and path that they can leverage for efficient delivery services (Leblanc, 2019). Comment by TJS: Yes. They set a new industry standard
However, due to the consideration of numerous factors involved in using third-party carriers for deliveries, Amazon has developed its privately-owned freight service. Amazon hence uses its privately-owned vehicles to carry products to its clients specifically for same-day deliveries. In recent times, Amazon has been developing cargo freight service in certain specific areas where the firm uses drones to carry items straight to their clients who are within a 10-mile radius from their warehouses. This has cut product deliveries to half an hour or less. Amazon is progressively incorporating newer technologies in its supply chain that systems can hence run without human supervision. This strategy has been articulated to be efficient so far as there are has been reduced inventory management costs over the last few years since the acquisition of Kiva Systems (Leblanc, 2.

Introduction
Evaluation of the program is usually done to in order to determine the quality of the program, how effective the program is and how the program is performing. This can help to know if the program is making a significant difference among the targeted people. It can also assist to know if the program is functioning or not. This paper therefore seeks to evaluate the program which is assisting the homeless people within the community.
The two program evaluation questions are: what is the reach of the program? And what has been the impact of the program on the homeless people? The answers to these questions would elicit both qualitative and quantitative results. Therefore, the program evaluation will require both quantitative and qualitative data collection plan. This is because the use of mixed-method approach is convenient since the results and findings would be reliable (Creswell, 2017). After identifying the evaluation program questions, the next step will be to come up with plan of evaluating a program. The plan should consist of methods of collecting data, evidences, the person responsible and the duration.

Literature Review
It is expected that every student enrolled in high school works hard towards the completion of their high school diploma. However, research indicates there was a 5.4% drop out among the minority groups, in which 6.4% of the overall status dropout rate is that of the male youth. Among the Africans, Hispanics, and American Indian Natives, the dropout rates among the boys are 8%, 10%, and 11.6%, respectively (Musu-Gillette, De Brey, McFarland, Hussar, Sonnenberg, & Wilkinson-Flicker, 2017). These dropouts often join continuation schools later in life with the hope that they will get an equivalent of their high school diploma. The theoretical framework of this research is based on the phenomenological approach, in which the aim is to examine the occurrence of school dropout among minority boys and their performance after joining continuation school.
One of the theories that explain why minority boys drop out of school is the Critical Race Theory. The model argues that education opportunities are often affected by an individual’s race and racism (Colbert, 2017). Based on this theory, minority groups are often faced with issues such as poverty and racial discrimination in schools, which causes some of the male students to drop out of school. Racism victims in school feel inferior to the whites and sometimes feel like they do not deserve a quality education, and they end up falling behind in school.
Cultural production theory, on the other hand, explains why the dropouts choose to go back to school. The theory holds that the education system helps to level out the playing field so that people get equal opportunities to make their lives. The approach provides an essential perspective as to why minority boys dropouts join continuation schools and complete their learning process.
According to Bania, Lydersen, and Kvernmo (2016), non-completion of high school mostly results from different problems, most of which are health-related. In research in which the authors carried out among the youths in the Arctic, they found out that dropout rates were higher among males. Additionally, minority males often drop out due to mental issues. Based on the article, education affects an individual’s employment opportunities and income, as well as the quality of life, which explains why the dropouts choose to join continuation schools later in life.
Hernandez and Ortez (2019) undertake research in which they analyze the experiences of some Latinas who are enrolled in continuation school. Based on the writers’ claims, continuation schools have put in place strategies that enable the students to cope and realize that they have an opportunity to succeed just like any other individual. Additionally, due to the improvement in the prospects for quality education presented to the marginalized groups, the article indicates that there are .

Living with chronic illnesses: How are those with a chronic illness treated by their families since their diagnosis?
Maura K. Little
University of West Florida
Abstract
This study aims to figure out what the relationship and meaning of the ways that a family treats a family member with a chronic mental or physical illness. The exploration of the way those with a chronic illness are treated since their diagnosis is important to understand the perceptions, behaviors, and communication that surrounds illness. Chronic mental illness will be analyzed against chronic physical illness to assess similarities and differences in family behaviors. Participants included individuals selected from local support groups based on their illness as well as family structure. An ethnographic study would be used to compare both the verbal and nonverbal relationship between the ill family member and the rest of the family.
Introduction
This study aimed to focus on both physical chronic illnesses and mental chronic illnesses and their effects on family communication, particularly surrounding the diagnosis of the illnesses.
Family has a large impact on the perceptions of illness. In recent times, the publicity around individuals with chronic illnesses, both mental and physical, has increased dramatically in the media. From the production of films about those with physical chronic illnesses to celebrity diagnosis of a mental illness, illness is something our society is beginning to talk about more frequently. However there are certain stigmas attached to these illnesses that make it harder for patients and their families to cope with their situation. Most often because of the portrayals of chronic illness that romanticize illnesses and do not necessarily show all of the effects of these illnesses on the patient or their family.
Both mental and physical chronic illnesses are much more complex than how they are portrayed in the media. These illnesses often produce copious amounts of side effects that bring a whole new level of challenges to the patient's struggle through their daily life and readjustment after diagnosis. One effect that is often not publicized as much as others is the relationships that exist between the patient and their family. These family relationships may change drastically with the diagnosis of and grappling with a chronic illness, changing how family members perceive one another, how they act, and even how they communicate. All of these things depend upon the nature of the family, and the illness and produce different changes. However, through all different types of families and illnesses, communication in situations like these is essential to understanding one another. According to Rosland (2009), several interviews and focus groups showed that family members lowered stress, and are central to patient success. In most instances, the family i.

Effect of Tobacco Use
Gideon Aryertey
Embry Riddle Aeronautical University
Introduction
Over decades, many individuals have been using tobacco without being aware of its harmful effects. For instance, in the U.S., the rate of cigarette smoking increased immensely in the early twentieth century. This was due to the invention of the cigarette rolling machine as well as an increase in the advertisement of tobacco products. As a result, cigarette smoking expanded regardless of the opposition of religious leaders or other members. Tobacco consumption reaches its peak especially between the ages of 20 to 40 in both females and males although statistically males consume more than females. Furthermore, the smoking rate amongst African-Americans (16.7%) are higher than the national average in comparison to Caucasians (16.6%). In fact, mixed race individuals and American Indian/Alaska Natives have higher smoking rates than African-Americans. As a result, this shows that there’s a big issue with the use of tobacco. Tobacco has led to many diseases such as lung cancer, diabetes, heart disease, stroke. It also leads to addiction. However, it is significant for one to overcome the addiction of tobacco use to improve their health status. Educating people about the harmful effect of tobacco consumption and making tobacco less affordable will correspond to a gradual decrease in its use.
Tobacco use has caused numerous deaths amongst individuals despite their socioeconomic backgrounds. For instance, approximately 30 percent of people who perish due to cancer in the United States; 80 percent of these deaths are caused by lung cancer. lung cancer is the main cause of cancer related deaths in the youth and adults. (Addicott, Sweitzer & McClernon, 2018). Lung cancer attacks both genders and the treatment process can be very complex. Consumers of tobacco are affected by this disease because it exterminates the cells responsible for fighting against the disease. Also, the use of tobacco affects the proper functioning of all the organs in the body. Other than lung cancer, tobacco consumption can also lead to mouth, esophagus, larynx, liver, kidney, bladder, cervix, pharynx, stomach, myeloid leukemia, pancreas and colon cancers (Ebbert, Elrashidi & Stead, 2015).
In fact, about 7300 nonsmokers die from lung disease every year according to the International Agency that is responsible for Research on Cancer (IARC) after being exposed to tobacco. Additionally, a 2009 survey that was conducted in China indicated that about 38 percent of smokers were aware that smoking contributes to attack of coronary heart disease while 27 percent were aware that it can lead to a stroke (Ambrose, et. al, 2017). However, individuals who smoke about five cigarettes a day showed signs of various diseases and damages to the blood vessels (Gilreath, et. al, 2016). In fact, blood vessels are thickened and then become narrow.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

to learning. Inclusive
learning has been adopted by many teachers across the world.
This is where they would prefer
students with disabilities to learn in general classrooms
alongside with non-disabled students.
Special education teachers should serve as leaders who assists
general education teachers in

& O'Connor 2016). And how they

The teachers have an opportunity to demonstrate collaborative
leadership and make sure
that students are satisfied from their mode of teaching. Team
teaching is important in inclusive
learning. It helps special needs children have social interactions
with their peers hence gaining
positivity. There have been collaboration models that teachers
are using in order to be successful
in their activities and satisfying the needs of the students.
The learning center collaboration model is important as
different teachers gather in a room
where students are arranged into groups. Special needs students

teachers on how to handle the mild disabled students. The other
model is the alternative
collaboration setting where special education teachers may work
with paraeducators and ensure
that the student programs are followed. (De Melendez & Beck
2018). Students are divided into
small groups hence getting a chance with their instructors one
on one. Inclusive learning will give
a chance to the mild disabled students to learn how to solve
mathematical problems easily. This is
because they are interacting with other students under good
guidance from different teachers and
paraeducators.
Teachers should adopt ways to come up with a safe and
inclusive environment to students
with disabilities. They should encourage all students to be one’s
keeper even outside classrooms.
This way, students who are fast learners will help students with
mild disabilities to solve

4. mathematical problems. Second, they should encourage students
based on life experiences. Show
them that anything is achievable when it comes to the real
world. (Ismail & Muhammad 2018). By
doing this, teachers will help in creating an environment which
is culturally responsive with good
social interactions and better learning activities.
Team teaching may have their own advantages as well as
disadvantages. One advantage is
that there will be quality teaching since teachers from different
fields combine efforts in handling
problems. This will improve student’s satisfaction.
Collaborative teaching stimulates creativity as
teachers their different ideas on how to handle students from all
aspects. Disadvantages of
collaborative teaching; it requires more time to plan on how to
handle lessons, decision making
takes long since all members must come to a conclusion.
(Pancsofar & Petroff 2016). Some
teachers feel that they are doing more work than others and this
will create conflicts. Team teaching
basically may discourage teachers since they don’t want to be
humiliated when they haven’t

Struggling students in mathematics need some intervention
strategies to help them develop
positive attitude towards math and improve their performance.
Tutors however need to connect
with their students. Establishing a good relationship with your
students will enable them open up
on the areas they are facing problems. (Morin & Raver 2017). I
have continued to work with my
mentor teacher in creating an intervention plan for the 15
students who had struggles in solving
math problems in clinical field experience B.
We have identified different levels of intervention strategies.
They will help students in
understanding the context, apply them in solving multi-step
math problems. The strategies will
also guide me in content delivery. In clinical field B we had
looked at two intervention strategies;
8. monitoring the students progress and giving feedback them
feedback in order to motivate them to
continue with the spirit of working hard. (Rubie-Davies &
Rosenthal 2015). I have given the
students the assignments that they are supposed to tackle so that
I can observe their progress. For
this lesson I have identified other three intervention strategies
that will help students in tackling
multi-step mathematical problems.
The first intervention strategy for struggling students is
providing students with rich ideas
during math lesson. This will help students to fully understand
the context and get knowledge on
how to handle math procedures. The second strategy is
providing step by step instructions to help
the struggling students know how to tackle problems in each
step. Clear instructions are important
since they make math language easier. Last, practicing basic
facts. I will guide them on how to
handle arithmetic daily during their free time to get used to
math problems. (Morin & Raver 2017).
This will increase their confidence and speed hence overall
performance improvement. I will use
9. these strategies even in my future professional practice to
motivate my students to getting higher
grades.

However, I need materials and procedures for better
implementation of the intervention
strategies. I will need various mathematical textbooks in order
to learn different ideas on helping
struggling students. In the second strategy of providing clear
instructions to students, I will need
visual aids like projectors. This will help me in better delivery
on showing them procedures to
follow in handling math problems. (Zhang & Asam 2015). The
images will stick in their minds
and it will be easier to remember. The last strategy I will need
to offer students with extra exercise
books for home assignments. This will help distinguish the class
work from home practice work.

Identifying student challenges is important as it will help a
teacher know the specific needs of the student. Math is a critical
subject and requires putting more effort in it. teachers need to
come up with strategies that will help students improve their
learning in this subject. I have noticed the poor performance of
my students in mathematics for a quite now. I have decided to
12. share with my mentor teacher so that she can advise on what to
do to raise student’s performance. Out of 25 students we have
selected 15 students as sample to work with and identify the
areas the majority are finding it hard to tackle. (Hansen &
Rodrigues 2017). We have given the students some
mathematical tasks to handle. During their assignments I have
realized the challenging areas that make them hard to solve the
problems.
The students have difficulties in handling multiple questions in
mathematics. Most of the also don’t understand the language
used in phrasing the questions. And others are not fully
attentive in class hence difficulties in solving problems.
(Schindler & Lilienthal 2018). I have called the students and
shared with them about the areas challenging them when solving
the problems as per my observation. They all have agreed that
they are having problems with the areas and they need my
support.
I have decided to come up with differentiation and intervention
strategies that will help my students improve in their
performance. I had talked had shared about the strategies with
my mentor before and he had been positive about them. Some of
these strategies that we want to implement include the
following; a differentiation strategy of relating math problems
to every day example. This includes give examples with real life
while teaching. This will enable students have a greater
reflection hence making them more attentive in class. (Wijaya &
Doorman 2015). Use of real-life examples is a language that
will make them understand questions in an easier way. Second,
the use of math EdTech tools. This are math video games which
are educative to students. This is visual and will create a long-
lasting image in students. Hence when it comes to answering
questions, they will remember what they watched. Watching is
enjoyable at will capture a lot of students. The third
differentiation strategy is creating learning stations where I will
divide the class into groups, give them different questions to
solve while closely observing them. This will help them put
13. different ideas together which will help in solving the
questions. Hence the problem of answering multiple questions
will be solved since I’ll keep rotating them to handle different
questions.
The interventions strategies that I have decided to apply is that
I’ll be giving them assignments and monitor their progress.
(Sullivan & Walker 2015). This will help greatly on practice as
math requires a lot of practice. Second, I will make sure I give
them feedback now and then about their performance as this
will motivate them to work harder.

Field Experience : Intervention Implementation
Upon identifying an appropriate intervention tier and aligning
intervention strategies, teachers can begin the implementation
process. Implementing identified intervention strategies during
instruction will help to not only meet the needs of students but
help teachers to identify where to monitor and adjust instruction
as needed. Implementation and evaluation of intervention is an
ongoing process when working with all students.
Allocate at least 3 hours in the field to support this field
experience.
Working with your mentor teacher, identify a math lesson or
time during which interventions from the Clinical Field
Experience C intervention plan can be implemented to benefit
the previously identified students.
After implementing the intervention strategies, seek feedback
from your mentor teacher about how it went. Continue
discussion regarding the strengths and potential improvements
of the students.
Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the teacher
in providing instruction and support to the class.
After the math lesson or activity, summarize and reflect upon
your experiences in 250-500 words, being sure to:
· Briefly describe the students identified needs and explain how
interventions were selected. Rationalize choices in relation to
the needs of the students.
15. · Describe how the students performed on the math activities
and reflect upon your experience implementing the intervention
strategies. Include possible changes you would make in the
future when implementing these strategies.
· Describe how students could utilize one of the intervention
strategies at home.
· Explain how you will use your findings in your future
professional practice.
