Running Head: MOTIVATING PROJECT TEAM STRATEGY 1 Motivating Project Team Strategy Marchello Williams HR Project Management MPM468-1804B-01 11/28/18 Motivating Project Team Strategy Binder (2016) defines motivation as the potency that initiates, escorts and conserves goal-oriented performance. It is a psychological trait. The method I will employ in the determination on how my team members will be motivated is the Atman test. Atman test can be defined as a scientifically authenticated psychometric instrument that measures characteristic of character. This method is based on the personality theory factors. Atman test accounts for 11 dimensions of individual personality through grouping them into five sections which include; thinking structure, motivation, leadership, sociability, and resistance to stress. In order to carry out a successful motivating assessment, one needs to understand what motivates the employees as well as what demotivates them, hence the reason why dimensions that are out of motivation are included in this test to equip the motivator with the full picture of employees personality. To carry out an assessment with this method, employees are required to fill the Atman platform, which can be done from any computer, thereafter the motivator goes back to the platform and views the employee's results. Atman platforms evaluate 11 dimensions of the bipolar scale. For instance, the sociability scale depicts the state of the employee between being introverted and being extroverted. Nature scale, on the other hand, depicts what motivates employees in one hand as well as demotivating them from the other hand. Atman test reveals to the motivator the kind of employees available. They can either be team oriented or result oriented. The test also reveals if the employees are traditional or adaptable. Result oriented employees will be motivated to attain the aimed results. Team oriented, on the other hand, cannot be motivated directly, this motivation can demotivate them. Traditional employees who are used to work as per their policies fail to catch up in structured work plans, this will demotivate them. Adaptable employees catch up with any structure thus easily motivated. Describe the theory that most closely aligns with how you intend to motivate your team. The Big five theory is the one that most closely aligns to Atman test motivation assessment. Big five theory refers to a research in the field of psychology which that is founded from the notion that common personality traits are captured by five dimensions, the O-C-E-A-N mnemonic. This mnemonic stands for openness to experience, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism (Turner, 2014). Openness to experience High scorers in this dimension are curious, nontraditional and creative in general and they easily break the mold of typical approaches because of their intellectual curiosity. Low scores in this dimension are conventional and tend .

The American president was not always such a public figure. Early presidents actively avoided public campaigning. If the Internet had suddenly become available in the eighteenth century, for example, it is highly likely that George Washington would not have used it. The authors of the Constitution generally shared a common concern, which was that too many direct appeals to the mass public could run the risk of pandering to the public through populist rhetoric. But democratic notions of the presidency have changed, as have conceptions about how the president should communicate with the people. Today, candidates actively pursue any and all methods for communicating their vision and message.
Presidents today have gone beyond the famous “Fireside Chats” of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Today, an interested voter can visit the White House website (http://www.whitehouse.gov ) and look up information on the President, the Vice President, and the First Lady. An interactive “Ask the White House” web feature allows citizens to pose questions to Cabinet secretaries and to senior White House officials.

Emotional Intelligence
Students Name
Institutional Affiliation
Emotional intelligence is a set of abilities that allows an individual to recognize, express, evaluate and understand other people’s emotions to control their actions and thinking. Emotional intelligence as a concept in the current competitive world has become very popular. Thus many organizations have resorted to EI as a key ingredient in harvesting employee’s behaviors and positive attitudes. Employee commitment, customer satisfaction, and financial rewards can be gauged using Emotional intelligence. Hence emotional intelligence is a multidimensional concept that covers, social and cultural intelligence which is a key ingredient in the success of an organization. Emotional intelligence has four major dimensions; managing emotions, self-awareness, handling relationships, and individual motivation. Self-awareness is a key EI concept majors on the determinants and repercussions of emotions and moods and their evolution over time.
Nevertheless, EI has various impacts on the management’s ability to enhance employee performance and job satisfaction. Job satisfaction is the individual’s cognitive ability to evaluate reactions towards their job, either positive or negative. Job satisfaction is greatly associated with individual emotional intelligence. Individuals with high EI are more time effective at work, highly satisfied; engage in less absenteeism and lower turnover ( Altındağ & Kösedağı, 2015). Thus, they are easily appraised and regulate their other individual’s feelings hence positively impacting job satisfaction and morale. On the other hand employees with low EI find it hard in understanding, regulating and managing their emotions in cases of complex situations. This, in turn, leads to reduced morale, increased negative feelings, and stress and reduced job performance levels. Relationship management as a concept has an overall impact on employee performance. This is because emotional management is key in creating a positive working environment thus increasing performance and commitment. The organization should then support its employees by creating a good working environment thus reducing dissatisfaction and creating loyalty and improving retention.
Motivation is the positive or pleasurable state of emotion that comes as a result of the appraisal of individual job experience. Work-related appraisals can invoke a positive or negative emotional reaction from an employee. A positive remark would hence reflect employee satisfaction and bad remark indicate dissatisfaction. Motivation In terms of reward or recognition would then give an employee a desire to do better (Shields et al., 2015). There e ...

Motivation
Equity theory – people will be motivated when they perceive that they are being treated fairly (transactional) – theory of motivation or observation of some people?
Expectancy theory – effort = good performance = reward > attractive reward (the perceived/learned relationship between effort and performance and the value of the outcome) – extrapolation of reinforcement/behaviourism. Learning by association.
Alternative theories
Motivation
Reinforcement theory – behaviours with positive consequences will occur more frequently than behaviours with negative consequences - behaviourism – positive and negative reinforcement, punishment and extinction; e.g. ‘incentivizing’ and bonuses.
Goal setting theory – people will be motivated to the extent to which they accept a goal and receive feedback toward achievement. It is based on the premise that conscious goals affect action.
More alternative theories
Motivation
Goal Orientation Theory – early conceptualizations from the 1970s. Most current research is based on Dweck’s (1989) theory of goal orientation (designed to understand children’s acquisition of new skills) – performance (perform well relative to others) v learning (improve skills) goals (situational characteristics or individual trait)?.

What are the underlying assumptions?
Motivation
SDT focuses on the ‘nature’ of motivation, that is, the ‘why of behaviour.’
The underlying assumption is that “human beings are active, growth-oriented organisms who are naturally inclined toward integration of their psychic elements into a unified sense of self and integration of themselves into larger social structures” (Deci & Ryan, 2000, p. 229).

PACE Summary
This document provides an overview of the PACE framework which stands for Progress, Alignment, Capabilities, and Engagement. It is based on research from various sources on topics like motivation, performance, and talent optimization. Progress refers to making meaningful progress on work and fueling positive emotions. Alignment is the level of clarity between individual and organizational goals. Capabilities are the competencies, information, and resources needed to meet customer expectations. Engagement goes beyond satisfaction to represent willingness to exert effort and advocate for the organization. Together these elements can help foster high performance, commitment, and sustainable talent management in organizations.

This document provides information on mentoring and performance management. It defines mentoring as a relationship between an experienced employee and a new employee that involves support, encouragement, and guidance. The benefits of mentoring include improved confidence and skills for both mentors and mentees. There are four types of mentors: coaches, connectors, cheerleaders, and challengers. Performance management is defined as an ongoing process of setting goals, providing feedback, and developing employees to improve performance. It involves establishing job expectations, assessing performance, providing coaching, and recognizing achievements. The performance management process aims to align individual and organizational objectives to drive excellence.
Hrm- EVP Twins
This document discusses the relationship between employer value proposition and employee value proposition. It states that EVP and EVP are interdependent and must be properly aligned in order to attract and retain the right talent, ensure employee satisfaction, and increase productivity. It provides examples of how they are like two sides of the same coin or like identical twins that must be in tune. The document emphasizes that organizations must consider what employees want, including satisfaction, feedback, growth and learning opportunities, and passion from leaders. It also outlines some factors that make employees unhappy.
Job positives
The JD-R Model developed by Arnold Bakker and Evangelia Demerouti in 2006 categorizes working conditions into two categories: job demands and job resources. Job demands refer to stressors like workload, ambiguity, and relationships, while job resources like autonomy, relationships, and development help achieve goals and reduce stress. The model states that high demands and low resources lead to stress and burnout, while resources can offset demands and encourage motivation. To apply the model, managers should identify demands, address them, identify resources, and promote resources to lessen stress and increase engagement.
The Art of People Development
This document discusses strategies for developing high-performing teams. It outlines several types of individuals whose behaviors could hinder team performance, such as pessimists, overconfident people, and workaholics. It also describes desired behaviors like imagination, customer-centric thinking, and experimentation. The document advocates for personalized development plans to transform behaviors and enable teams to work effectively together. By focusing on addressing undesirable behaviors and fostering positive attitudes, managers can improve both individual and team productivity and success.

Introduction
Professional development is primarily used to document career goals and set effective strategies on how to meet them. Writing and implementing a professional development plan would help M.C. Donald’s identify and develop the professional skills required to realize its vision and goals. The program will, therefore, keep the company on track to success. Developing the plan is an essential process that helps organizations in taking charge of professional development and achieves full potential (Thomas, 2018). However, before forming the program, an organization must determine where they want to be in the future. The employees must take their careers in their hands. While an employer might be required to supports employees in developing the plan, professional development is the responsibility of the employees. Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a crucial requirement for active professional development. Individuals can identify their emotions and those of others.
EI and Motivation
Emotional intelligence is comprised of various building blocks. Some of these include self-awareness, self-regard, self-perception, and self-actualization; accept one's strengths and weaknesses and the ability to improve as an individual and among others. The building block that will have the most significant impact on management goals is the ability to accept weaknesses and strengths. In a perfect world, employees would be good at everything they need for a successful life and business (Neçare & Şehitoğlu, 2018). However, we live in an imperfect world, and we all have to face the fact that we are downright lousy to some things and good at others. This is similar to M.C. Donald’s management. For the management to turn a weakness into strengths and enhance employees' satisfaction and performance, it has to identify and accept the weakness. This will ensure the administration creates a suitable environment for effective teamwork. It will also enhance communication skills, which is a crucial element for increasing efficiency and eliminate public complaint about slowness observed in M.C. Donald’s customers’ service.
Motivational Theory
I would utilize the McClelland’s Need Theory to influence the members in M.C. Donald’s and help in solving the issue of the ineffective corporate culture. This is a well-known theory of motivation. McClelland developed this theory based on Henry Murray’s long list of manifests and motives needs from his early personality study. The McClelland’s is closely associated with the learning theory since it argues that needs are learned and acquired from the events experienced by individuals in their environment (Shane & Heckhausen, 2019). He found that people who acquired specific need behaves differently from the others who do not have the tat need. The need for ach ...

They talk about the potential and restrictions of the MAS to manufacture models that empower spatial organizers to incorporate the 'actor factor' in their examination. Their structure system contemplates actors who assume a functioning job in the spatial planning. They included actors who can watch and see a spatial domain. Using these perceptions and discernment they produce an inclination for a preferred spatial situation. Actors at that point present and discuss their inclinations amid their exchanges with different actors.
The inclinations of the actor fill in as inputs for an official choice making. Finally, ultimate conclusions are actualized in the spatial framework. They found that MAS can produce space utilization designs in light of a portrayal of a multi-actor planning process. It additionally can clear up the impacts of actors under the administration of various planning styles on the space utilization and prove how the relations between actors change amid a planning process and under different orders of coming up with decisions. Unlike the work by Parker, Manson, Janssen, Hoffman & Deadman,2003, cited below, this paper did not include the various challenges associated with the use of MAS.

In this paper, they studied different models. These models, however, were not thorough enough and therefore they took into account the multi-actor system, dynamic spatial Simulation, which has two components, that is, a cellular model that speaks to biogeophysical and biological parts of a demonstrated framework and an actor-based model to speak to human conclusion making. Because of its nature and ability to model complex situations, they highlighted some of the areas that MAS can be applied where other models cannot be able to deliver. Such areas are modeling of emergent phenomena whereby MAS can model landscape plans, due to its flexibility, MAS can represent complex land use/ cover systems, and they can be used to model dynamic paths. They also outlined the various challenges to Multi-actor systems. Such challenges include an understanding of complexity, individual decision making, empirical parameterization and model validation, and communication.

Once I think of a hero, there are specific qualities that surround my imagination, being courageous, hardworking, truthful, strong, resilient, and generous have been the qualities I taught about. I also think a hero is someone protective, caring, and so concerned to change the life of the others and make them happy in their life. My Mother has all these qualities and recognizes her as my hero. Otherwise, she grew up on the support of two great parents who had a good life where she grew up and become a teacher in her life. Almost every individual has had some achievements in their life, and there must be a factor behind those achievements, especially someone who had a significant impact on their life. My mother appears to be my hero, who had a substantial impact on my life.
She is currently 54 years old. She was a teacher by profession, and she did her best as a teacher, where she influenced the lives of many students positively; up to now, some still call her and pass their appreciation to her. She was blessed and gave birth to seven kids; the first three are daughters, then a boy and a girl, and then the last two are boys. All of them have been significantly raised, everyone has something to do for a living, my big brother is a doctor, and three of my sisters are teachers, (like Mother like daughters). Our last born is an engineer interior designer and all of us are married with happy family. All these were not for granted but because of the love of God and the efforts, commitment, and great concern of our beloved parents, especially our Mother.
Even though she did not make a complete journey in her teaching profession, but up to where she stopped, she did a lot. They have been in a relationship with my father for thirty-six years of marriage, and when they had their third kid, my dad suggested that she stop teaching and remain at home to take care of the children. Throughout my entire life, my Mother had been supportive of me, a center of inspiration, and she has always been telling me to have self-confidence and believe in myself that I can make it. In case I face a problem, and I have to make a concrete decision towards it, my Mother always had behind me because I seek for her consultation before I move on to the next step.
It feels so great knowing that there is someone who will support you despite the intensity of the problem you face. It relieves much of the stress that comes along with making decisions. My Mother is beautiful inside and out, but most importantly, she has the biggest heart. She's a hard-working person and can play both parent roles. Everyon.

Emotional intelligence is a set of abilities that allows an individual to recognize, express, evaluate and understand other people’s emotions to control their actions and thinking. Emotional intelligence as a concept in the current competitive world has become very popular. Thus many organizations have resorted to EI as a key ingredient in harvesting employee’s behaviors and positive attitudes. Employee commitment, customer satisfaction, and financial rewards can be gauged using Emotional intelligence. Hence emotional intelligence is a multidimensional concept that covers, social and cultural intelligence which is a key ingredient in the success of an organization. Emotional intelligence has four major dimensions; managing emotions, self-awareness, handling relationships, and individual motivation. Self-awareness is a key EI concept majors on the determinants and repercussions of emotions and moods and their evolution over time.
Nevertheless, EI has various impacts on the management’s ability to enhance employee performance and job satisfaction. Job satisfaction is the individual’s cognitive ability to evaluate reactions towards their job, either positive or negative. Job satisfaction is greatly associated with individual emotional intelligence. Individuals with high EI are more time effective at work, highly satisfied; engage in less absenteeism and lower turnover ( Altındağ & Kösedağı, 2015). Thus, they are easily appraised and regulate their other individual’s feelings hence positively impacting job satisfaction and morale. On the other hand employees with low EI find it hard in understanding, regulating and managing their emotions in cases of complex situations. This, in turn, leads to reduced morale, increased negative feelings, and stress and reduced job performance levels. Relationship management as a concept has an overall impact on employee performance. This is because emotional management is key in creating a positive working environment thus increasing performance and commitment. The organization should then support its employees by creating a good working environment thus reducing dissatisfaction and creating loyalty and improving retention.
Motivation is the positive or pleasurable state of emotion that comes as a result of the appraisal of individual job experience. Work-related appraisals can invoke a positive or negative emotional reaction from an employee. A positive remark would hence reflect employee satisfaction and bad remark indicate dissatisfaction. Motivation In terms of reward or recognition would then give an employee a desire to do better (Shields et al., 2015). There e ...

Motivation
Equity theory – people will be motivated when they perceive that they are being treated fairly (transactional) – theory of motivation or observation of some people?
Expectancy theory – effort = good performance = reward > attractive reward (the perceived/learned relationship between effort and performance and the value of the outcome) – extrapolation of reinforcement/behaviourism. Learning by association.
Alternative theories
Motivation
Reinforcement theory – behaviours with positive consequences will occur more frequently than behaviours with negative consequences - behaviourism – positive and negative reinforcement, punishment and extinction; e.g. ‘incentivizing’ and bonuses.
Goal setting theory – people will be motivated to the extent to which they accept a goal and receive feedback toward achievement. It is based on the premise that conscious goals affect action.
More alternative theories
Motivation
Goal Orientation Theory – early conceptualizations from the 1970s. Most current research is based on Dweck’s (1989) theory of goal orientation (designed to understand children’s acquisition of new skills) – performance (perform well relative to others) v learning (improve skills) goals (situational characteristics or individual trait)?.

Job positives
The JD-R Model developed by Arnold Bakker and Evangelia Demerouti in 2006 categorizes working conditions into two categories: job demands and job resources. Job demands refer to stressors like workload, ambiguity, and relationships, while job resources like autonomy, relationships, and development help achieve goals and reduce stress. The model states that high demands and low resources lead to stress and burnout, while resources can offset demands and encourage motivation. To apply the model, managers should identify demands, address them, identify resources, and promote resources to lessen stress and increase engagement.

Introduction
Professional development is primarily used to document career goals and set effective strategies on how to meet them. Writing and implementing a professional development plan would help M.C. Donald’s identify and develop the professional skills required to realize its vision and goals. The program will, therefore, keep the company on track to success. Developing the plan is an essential process that helps organizations in taking charge of professional development and achieves full potential (Thomas, 2018). However, before forming the program, an organization must determine where they want to be in the future. The employees must take their careers in their hands. While an employer might be required to supports employees in developing the plan, professional development is the responsibility of the employees. Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a crucial requirement for active professional development. Individuals can identify their emotions and those of others.
EI and Motivation
Emotional intelligence is comprised of various building blocks. Some of these include self-awareness, self-regard, self-perception, and self-actualization; accept one's strengths and weaknesses and the ability to improve as an individual and among others. The building block that will have the most significant impact on management goals is the ability to accept weaknesses and strengths. In a perfect world, employees would be good at everything they need for a successful life and business (Neçare & Şehitoğlu, 2018). However, we live in an imperfect world, and we all have to face the fact that we are downright lousy to some things and good at others. This is similar to M.C. Donald’s management. For the management to turn a weakness into strengths and enhance employees' satisfaction and performance, it has to identify and accept the weakness. This will ensure the administration creates a suitable environment for effective teamwork. It will also enhance communication skills, which is a crucial element for increasing efficiency and eliminate public complaint about slowness observed in M.C. Donald’s customers’ service.
Motivational Theory
I would utilize the McClelland’s Need Theory to influence the members in M.C. Donald’s and help in solving the issue of the ineffective corporate culture. This is a well-known theory of motivation. McClelland developed this theory based on Henry Murray’s long list of manifests and motives needs from his early personality study. The McClelland’s is closely associated with the learning theory since it argues that needs are learned and acquired from the events experienced by individuals in their environment (Shane & Heckhausen, 2019). He found that people who acquired specific need behaves differently from the others who do not have the tat need. The need for ach ...

They talk about the potential and restrictions of the MAS to manufacture models that empower spatial organizers to incorporate the 'actor factor' in their examination. Their structure system contemplates actors who assume a functioning job in the spatial planning. They included actors who can watch and see a spatial domain. Using these perceptions and discernment they produce an inclination for a preferred spatial situation. Actors at that point present and discuss their inclinations amid their exchanges with different actors.
The inclinations of the actor fill in as inputs for an official choice making. Finally, ultimate conclusions are actualized in the spatial framework. They found that MAS can produce space utilization designs in light of a portrayal of a multi-actor planning process. It additionally can clear up the impacts of actors under the administration of various planning styles on the space utilization and prove how the relations between actors change amid a planning process and under different orders of coming up with decisions. Unlike the work by Parker, Manson, Janssen, Hoffman & Deadman,2003, cited below, this paper did not include the various challenges associated with the use of MAS.

In this paper, they studied different models. These models, however, were not thorough enough and therefore they took into account the multi-actor system, dynamic spatial Simulation, which has two components, that is, a cellular model that speaks to biogeophysical and biological parts of a demonstrated framework and an actor-based model to speak to human conclusion making. Because of its nature and ability to model complex situations, they highlighted some of the areas that MAS can be applied where other models cannot be able to deliver. Such areas are modeling of emergent phenomena whereby MAS can model landscape plans, due to its flexibility, MAS can represent complex land use/ cover systems, and they can be used to model dynamic paths. They also outlined the various challenges to Multi-actor systems. Such challenges include an understanding of complexity, individual decision making, empirical parameterization and model validation, and communication.

Program Evaluation Plan (Part 3)
Goals of Evaluation
Evaluation refers to the act of checking various things thoroughly in order to characterize their worth or value, with reference to a certain context. In the field of education, the amount of success in a person’s aims can only be determined through evaluation. Therefore, there is a very close relationship between various aims and evaluation. The main goals of evaluation in schools are as discussed below. The first goal of evaluation in the field of education is to create an educational program ("Evaluation in Teaching and Learning Process | Education", 2020). Through evaluation, evaluators and the school management can build a given program of learning among the students. This is after gathering and checking various factors in order to find what program will fit and make a positive impact in the school. This involves consulting all the stakeholders of the program and developing strategies that will ensure the development of a good program.
The second goal of evaluation is assessing the effectiveness of the program. Evaluation ensures that the developed program is up to standards and serves the purpose that it was intended to. It helps the evaluators to check if the teaching strategies and techniques are being applied properly. The third goal of evaluation is to ensure improvement of the program. Through evaluation, evaluators can gauge the impact of the program on the school and learners. They can also identify various things that can make the program more effective. It acts as an in-built monitor in the program in order to review the progress of the program from time to time. It also gives feedback regarding the design and the implementation of a given program. Through such assessments, the school management can know where to work on, and what they need in order to enhance effective programs in teaching and learning.
For instance, in our case, evaluators can comfortably tell whether or not the program is helping girls become more superior in math. If not they can suggest better or other strategies that will make positive impact.
Cultural Issues Affecting the Program
Culture can influence how different people view things. An individual’s culture and upbringing can affect their way of processing information. Among the cultural issues that might be faced in the evaluation plan include cultural stereotypes. Some students believe that they cannot perform as expected in school or in a particular subject due to lack of preparation from their home environment. This makes them believe they do not have enough potential to do well in a given subject when they get to school. For instance, some students may not have calculat.

I. Executive Summary
In this section, you should accurately highlight the essential elements of the intelligence report for quick reference by the agency receiving the report. You should include the name of referring agent (your name), the name of the agency that you are imagining you work for, the current date, dates of the activities being covered in the intelligence report, and a brief summary (two to three sentences) on the adversary, scope, and nature of the potential threat. Although this is the opening section of the report, you may wish to complete it last in order to accurately capture the analysis of the body of your report. (This section is the summary so be sure this section is brief. Additional relevant details should be written in their respective sections of the report.)
II. Adversary, Motivation, and Jurisdiction
Summary
Accurately summarize the intelligence collected from the SARs to date, focusing on the “who, what, when, where, why, and how” of the threat situation. Information should be annotated with dates and times from relevant SARs, and information from each date should be provided in a separate paragraph, from inception to most recent. Your summary should focus on connecting the dots, with as much detail as needed to present all the relevant intelligence. It should highlight information that would be of particular relevance for the law enforcement agency doing follow-up in understanding the potential threat. (If it makes it easier, you can format your first section as follows:
A. Who
B. What
C. When
D. Where
E. Why
F. How
Adversary
Determine who the adversary is for this potential threat. It may be an individual or a group. You should identify the names of suspects (if known) and also the type of adversary. For example, is the adversary an international terrorist group, a domestic terrorist group, an organized crime, a local or international gang, drug traffickers, an extremist or militia group, a hacker, or a white-collar criminal? Support your answer using relevant information from the SARs.
Range
Analyze the range of the adversary’s operations. Are their activities focused within one city or state or across multiple states? Support your answer with relevant information from the SARs.
Motivation
Analyze what is known about the adversary’s motivation and how that might affect their choice of target (individual or location). Might it affect whether they choose one target or many, the type of target they select, or the location of the attack? Support your answer with relevant information from the SARs.
Jurisdiction
Based on your analyses in Parts A–C above, determine which agency has jurisdiction in following up on the potential threat. For example, should local or state law enforcement follow up? Should federa.

The specific problem to be addressed is how McDonald's is going to deal with a decrease in demand in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic. The general problem to be addressed is how fast-food chains and food outlets are changing their operations during the pandemic of Corona Virus in the world, especially in the United States (Daniel, 2016).
You must always list your general problem statement first. Provide context for that statement. Then present your specific problem statement and provide context for that statement. Per the assignment instructions you should list your research questions following your problem statements.
The method selected for research:
To conduct research on the above-stated problem stated, the right methodThe research method that will be adopted in conducting the proposed research will be the mixed method approach a combination approach withwhich includes both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. A quantitative approach will help understand the insights into what is triggering a certain behavior in participants. While on the other hand, quantitative study is important to figure out the proportion of customers who is are not availing their previous interest in fast food and epically McDonald's (Apuke, 2017). But dueDue to the lockdown and social distancing, going in the market and conducting research is out of option. The suitable technique is to develop a flexible approach where both primary and secondary sources are sued. For secondary resources, the reports by McDonald's' Company and other institutions regarding the change in the food industry will be a suitable option. For primary data collection, developing an online survey is the safest option. For the qualitative study, online interviews can be scheduled. Both structured and unstructured interviews can be planned. Similarly, panel discussion over video calls is also a safe option. Through a mixed approach data for both quantitative and qualitative questions can be gathered (Yoshikawa & Kalil, 2008). Comment by Terrance Woods: What does this mean? Poor word choice.

There is a critical need for a good instructional design because it is a multipurpose learning tools that not only serves instructional designers but also learners of all ages. According to Clark (2016), e-learning courses need to be integrated with instructional methods which align with high-quality research.” The implication is that the process of designing instructional designs should involve careful planning, preparing and researching in order to achieve high quality learning outcomes. In this regard, those responsible for designing must identify their strategic purpose as it predetermines the goals, objectives, expected outcomes, and resource allocation of the entire instruction model.
The main approach involves studying the critical elements in the design phases of an instructional model which enhances the learning experience of learners based on evidence-based literature. This is because humans apply appropriate cognitive processes to learn and thus instruction must adopt similar cognitive processing (Clark, 2016).The main purpose is therefore to emphasize the importance of good instructional design in enhancing the quality of education among instructors and learners. The objective involves highlighting the goals of an instructional program, the instructional objectives, relevant instructional materials and design assessment which rationalize the need for a good instructional design with the goal of engaging both learners and instructors. After all, learning is a process that requires the active participation of the learners (Reigeluth, 1987). This research study seeks to identify answers to two questions: a) What are the critical elements that build up a strong foundation for a good instructional design and b) what value do these elements offer to the learners and instructor who are the main consumers of learning instructional designs.

Music and Gender: Women Portrayal in Rap Music
The introduction of rap music in the 1980s was welcomed with a lot positivity. However, this genre of music has on many occasions been considered as being controversial. Rap music has been accused of advancing messages and themes that deal with sexism, violence, gender stereotyping and materialism. Previous studies on rap music have indicated the content found in rap music promotes negative behavior. Moreover, research has shown that rap music videos generally differ in their portrayals of men and women in music videos. Males are often cast in positive light compared to females who are depicted in positions that portray them as a submissive gender to males.
The scope of this research narrows down on rap music produced from the years 2016 to 2018.The songs selected for this research are songs with lyrics that have misogynistic themes on women. Rap songs are observed in normalizing, objectifying, glorifying, victimizing and even exploiting women. Moreover, the rap songs are observed in defaming women through using innuendos and stereotypical language which portray misogynistic and sexist perspectives. The main area of focus for this paper is on the kind of nouns that are used in rap music to refer to the concept of woman and ways in which these nouns depict women. It is critical for this project to investigate the lyrics and its representations, as rap music has in the past years been under criticism for increasingly presenting a negative and controversial image of women in the society. A theological perspective on these issues is undertaken at understanding and criticizing the misogynistic and sexist culture of rap music generally.
Men in rap music have a higher probability of perpetuating violence on women. A review done on the common rap images found out that women were more likely to be dressed in images which portrayed them in provocative ways, especially in videos that had sexual content. Research has suggested that the perpetuation of gender in the media is a theme which has been occurring for eons of time[footnoteRef:1]. Specifically, music and gender and the portrayal of women in rap music has not been extensively studied previously. It is essential to consider the differences of gender in rap music and the portrayal of women in this genre of music.

Although scholars have attempted examining the interactions between rap music and religion, there has been a gap in regard to how artists frame religious messages within their lyrics. However, this lack of sufficient research does not reflect on the continued .

Winthrop University aims at offering personalized challenging, graduate, and continuing professional education programs of national caliber. Doing a degree in communication sciences and disorder does not align to the university’s mission since the program is not offered at the university anymore. The program started its closure while I was still in school, which was an indication of its coming to extinction. The program in communication sciences and disorders is also not part of the long-term mission of the university of achieving national stature as a competitive and distinctive, co-educational, public, residential comprehensive, and value-oriented institution. The program has been closed, which is an implication of the failure to meet the required standards to provide competitive skills to its students. Communication sciences and disorders program does not meet the students’ needs of meeting the challenges of the contemporary world by offering them the ability to synthesize knowledge to solve complex challenges.
Winthrop University prides itself in offering value-based education, which has shaped the success of the university. Closing the program shows that it does not contribute to the overall mission of the university, which contradicts the provisions of the university, which means that the program does not contribute to the values of the university. Any program that does not contribute towards the achievement of the university’s mission should be scrapped off so that only those programs that have a bearing on the university mission are considered.
However, the university needs to evaluate the contribution of the course towards the overall mission of the university. A speech pathologist is concerned with treating speech disorders among people suffering from such problems. The university, on the other hand, is concerned with training people who can treat speech disorders in society. The university, therefore, is a bridge between the prevailing challenge in society and the possible solutions. As such, speech pathologist is an important program that the university should reestablish.

Question 1
Brief introduction of Ohio City
Ohio is a great city named after the Ohio River in the 18th century. The area was disputed by the France and Great Britain. After the dispute, it established its own territories. This territory included the land where west of Pennsylvania in United States and the northwest of the Ohio River. The area covered more than 260,000 square miles (Turner, & Bogue 2010).
The History of Ohio City that has led to construction of Museums.
The area remained as a hunting ground by the Iroquois after the dispute. Later, some American groups began to migrate to the area. Later there was a seven years war between the Europeans, British and France. They all wanted to colonize the area. Unfortunately, the British worn and after the win, they ordered French settlers to leave the area. It is evident that the war brought about the breakdown of ethnicities.
How museum focus has been of great importance to the citizens of the city
The area is known for its landscape, mountains, rivers and minerals. This makes Ohio City to be a great city suitable for great museums. It is evident that, Ohio City creates the best environment for a museum with the theme of History and Natural History to be built. For instance, Miami River is known to be a great river. Many people admire visiting the area just to see the river. This creates the best conditions to build a museum. People within the city can also visit the museum and get to enjoy the benefits of the museums.
How people from outside the city benefit from the construction of the museums.
People outside Ohio City can also visit the museums. These museums will offer the history of the river to its visitors. They will also address an increasing array of issues in the dynamic environment (Edson, 2017).
Question 2
Permanent Exhibition.
Modern museum are designed to have a permanent exhibit, in this case the museum must have enough collections and classification of a field of knowledge for research and for display purposes. This will enlighten the visits about the history of Ohio City. The history stored in this museum will also be of great use to students as they will learn a lot in these museums,

In a bid to control the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans, it is important to examine a number of attributes of culture that can empower a person towards changing a behavior. The factors may be positive, existential, and negative. Existential factors may be not harmful but need to be acknowledged. The importance of a family cannot be ignored especially because of the support they provide to diabetic patients. Family is therefore a positive cultural value which will assist in managing diabetes disease. This paper therefore seeks to address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within the dimension of cultural empowerment applies to the African American group.
It is important to explore by identifying several cultural beliefs and practices that are positive, existential and negative. Positive factors are likely to lead to an improvement by reducing the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Existential factors are existing cultural values and beliefs that may have no harmful health consequences. Cultural practices that may act as barriers in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans are the negative factors. Example of these negative practices includes poor nutrition leading to obesity.
Positive Factors
The positive factors which will influence management and control of diabetes among the African Americans include spirituality and family. For example, talking about a family affair with diabetes will make a great impact in controlling diabetes among the African Americans. This is because it will create awareness of how to handle and deal with diabetes. Spirituality will have a positive impact in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. African Americans who have spiritual faith are likely to engage in activities which will reduce the prevalence of the disease.
Existential Factors
Existential factors include faith healing. A belief in faith healing is a factor which is likely to reduction in prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Individuals who are religious are likely to visit religious leaders to seek healing and intervention. Many individuals confess that they got healed after being prayed for by the Pastors and other religious leaders. This is attributed to believing in faith healing.
Negative Factors
Consumption of “comfort foods” is common in the diet of the African Americans. These foods contain high fat, sugar, and calorie contents. Example of negative cultural factors includes unhealthy traditional foods. Poor nutrition among the African Americans is more l.

Program evaluation plan (part 2)
In order to ensure that the “gender equity for girls in math” education program which applies to master’s level students is efficient in fulfilling the outlaid goals, the goal based approach of evaluation should be applied in evaluating the effectiveness of the program. The major objective of this education program is to empower the girl child and to ensure that there are increase female students taking courses in mathematics at higher education levels (Markovits & Forgasz, 2017). In this case therefore, the evaluators has to establish if the establishment of this program will promote the positivity and capability of girls to take courses in Mathematics and to increasingly love the subject even in the lower classes so as to portray an increased number in the number of girls pursing this course in the masters level.
The goal based approach of evaluation will help the school evaluator to be able to determine how they can ensure that all the institutions are able to empower the girl child and encourage them to increasingly perfect their skills in mathematics in order to see a reflection of changes in the higher education levels (Sarouphim & Chartouny, 2017). This evaluation technique will help the education program creators to determine if the program is efficient in attaining the set objects through checking the outcomes of the implementation of the program over certain period of time.
The gender equality for girls in Math is a program that is anticipated to help the girl children be able to resolve their issues that result from fear and insecurities which cause them to undermine their power and be left behind by the boy child in regard to prosperity in Mathematics (Ganley.et.al, 2018). Therefore, the evaluators will have a role of determining the broader impacts of this approach as well as investigate what greater good is served as a result of this program. This will include identify the consequences that the program will have on other courses which most female students major in and how the male students will be affected by the program. The goals based evaluation method will help establish the objectives which can be added in the program to make it have optimal results to both girls and boys as well as ensure that other courses that are male dominated portray gender equality (Stoehr.et.al, 2017).
The major areas where the evaluators will assess include; the goals of the program, the outcomes of the program as well as the consequences. The main questions concerning these areas will be; what are the objectives of the program? How will the program be able to meet these goals? How do the goals of the program align with the activities involved.

This document discusses a program budget and financial analysis for a breast cancer awareness campaign targeting African American women. It includes a $1 million budget with revenue sources like grants, donations, and product sales. Expenditures include materials development, workshops, salaries, and supplies. A break-even analysis finds the point where costs equal $100,000 in revenue. Cost-effectiveness analysis shows the awareness campaign is more effective than alternative screening programs in reaching more women at a lower cost. In conclusion, careful budgeting and financial planning are important for implementing the breast cancer awareness initiative.

The article discusses how most trauma treatment focuses on the individual, but trauma is also a relational event that affects close relationships. It argues that systemic protocols addressing interpersonal difficulties in addition to intrapersonal issues are critical for healing. To illustrate, a graphic case study is presented of a family experiencing trauma due to a kidnapping, and how individual versus systemic treatment approaches would differ in addressing their needs.

PROFESSIONAL PLAN 2
Professional Development Plan
As graduate study in nursing begins, identifying the program of study and professional
development plan aligned with personal and professional goals is crucial. The purpose of this
assignment is to provide a description of my educational and professional background as well as
explore professional and personal goals related to the course and the practicum.
Education and Professional Background
My name is Florence Nightingale and I want to start by giving you some insight into my
personal life. I currently reside in Orange County, California, where the military has placed my
family. I am an army wife, an associate degree nurse, and a mother of two boys. From a small
town in Virginia, my only opportunity to obtain a higher education degree was to attend a local
college that offered a 2-year degree in nursing. I had an opportunity to begin my chosen
profession early, having a family, and never have to worry about finding employment. I always
knew I wanted to increase my knowledge and do more. Year after year it seemed impossible to
go back to school in the traditional way, since raising small children and moving interfered with
finishing a degree.
Nursing has been the most rewarding career. It is not a job to me but my life. My formal
education began in 1989 at a branch of Kent State University. I graduated with a Bachelor of
Science in Nursing (BSN) in 1993. Working and going to school full-time put a strain on my
grade point average (GPA), but the experience helped me grow both professionally and
personally to an independent self-motivated practitioner.
Currently, I work in an endoscopy department where I developed many standard
operating procedure guidelines which are being utilized throughout the hospital. I am also
planning to obtain my Society of Gastroenterology Nurses and Associates (SGNA) certification
this year. Another certification workshop I plan to attend is a nurse management seminar in July.
PROFESSIONAL PLAN 3
Currently, I hold certifications in basic life support (BLS), advanced cardiac life support
(ACLS), pediatric advanced life support (PALS) and conscious sedation. Prior certifications held
were electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation and neurology assessment.
My experiences are very diverse which has made me flexible, efficient, and have given
me a broad knowledge base. The different areas of expertise include neurology, orthopedics,
urology, day surgery, endoscopy, telemetry, home health, recovery, and research-based projects.
In many of these fields I was chosen to take on leadership roles such as charge nurse, team
leader, preceptor, computer specialist, educator.

Program Design to Promote Social Goals in American K12 Schools
Explanation of Each Initiative
The three main initiatives of promoting social goals in school will include: promoting moral and character education, improving children’s health and nutrition, and creating school communities through extracurricular activities, after school programs, and school spirits (Rissanen et al. 2018). Comment by Evelyn Young: The 3 initiatives are clearly stated. Although did Rissanen et al. propose these 3 initiatives to promote social goals in schools? If these are your arguments, take credit for them. No need to give credit to Rissanen et al. for formulating the thesis for your paper.
I think that your paper could have used an introduction followed by the thesis statement.
Explanation of Each Initiative
Moral education is meant to promote good conduct among school-going children, not just within their immediate social relationships, but also in their dealings with their fellow citizens. This initiative is premised on the need for students to possess clear ideals and judgments on what action are right and what are wrong, including the determination of students’ conduct through a constant reference to those ideals. Moral education will be offered as a social goal to enlighten students on a system of rules and norms that regulate the social interactions of people on concepts of welfare, such as harm, trust, justice, and rights. For some students, issues related to values, personal feelings, and societal norms are constructs for discussions and are as such viewed as being influenced by the manner in which morality taught or experienced in schools, churches, and social institution settings. Moral education will be meant to reduce criminal and deviant behaviors among students. Moral character is required in schools because many parents do not teach their children morality issues.
The health and nutrition initiative is meant to improve the physical and mental well being of students. This initiative has the potential to improve the quality of students’ urban life, strengthen the ability of poor children to excel in their studies, and to compensate them for the substandard home and school environments spawned by competitive, inequitable social order. Health and nutritional initiatives will be strengthened through planning and introducing curriculum on nutrition with educational activities. These will include physical activities, which are combined with the farm to school programs that motivate students to consume healthy diets. Indeed, the hybrid school-based nutritional programs have major influence on attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors associated with fruits and vegetable consumption diffused throughout a bigger urban community (Dudley Cotton & Peralta, 2015). This hybrid intervention includes combining district stra.

Grouping Strategy for Ms. Jensen
The arrangement of the student in the class should be based on their proficiency level while factoring the different capabilities of each student. The teacher should ensure that the both fast learners and slow learners are catered in terms of understanding how to handle their comprehension capabilities. The class has three categories of student, basic, intermediate and proficient.
Cooperative Learning
Cooperative grouping is based on the differences among the children in terms of their learning abilities. Li & Lam (2013) states that cooperative grouping is best suited for situations where students have learning abilities which are differing. The grouping technique is implemented following the analysis of the heterogeneous factors such that students should be grouped depending gender, economic background, culture, race and ethnicities. The ranking of students should follow the descending order starting with the highest to the lowest. To make a ranking legend, the teacher should use L for low achiever, M for medium achievers and H for highest achievers. The grouping should include at least one student from each category for the purposes of achieving diversity. The grouping system should however be done without involving the students as such could encourage discrimination. The issues of gender should be defined effectively to avoid the majority of gender in any of the group.
Rationale for Placement
The strategy is important and useful for the given case because students have different abilities and proficiency. The grouping strategy also promotes involvement of all students since the group is designed in manner which facilitates individual contribution. Tsay & Brady (2012) states that the cooperative grouping is important since it allows for the development of critical thinking skills and communication skills.
Conclusion
Ms. Jensen’s class has students with different abilities and varying English proficiency. Cooperative grouping is effective for 7th grade children since it allow them to exchange information amongst themselves while encouraging collaborative learning. Students are more likely to improve their self-esteem and moralization to study English tasks since group composition allows individual contribution and peer discussions.

Executive Summary
Professional Development Proposal Program
The need for organizational efficiency is driving the need for understanding the competency of individuals that generate effectiveness. The emotional intelligence capabilities help explain considerable as well as significant variances in accepting and predicting performance in capability studies. Emotional intelligence is the ability to monitor personal feelings and emotions visa vie other people’s feelings and emotions and use the information to guide personal thinking and actions. Management can rely on employees’ emotional building blocks to not only enhance their performance, but also their job satisfaction levels. The most important emotional intelligence building blocks that enhance employee performance and job satisfaction are social skills, self-awareness, self regulation, self motivation and empathy. Managers will use emotional intelligence to identify the positive and negative reinforcement of motivation to enhance employee morale within the organization. Positive reinforcement motivation tools are the rewards given to employees for exemplary performance while negative reinforcement is the penalty or punishment for poor performance.
Leaders can use the concept of emotional intelligence to enhance their social skills and decision-making skills in management. Emotional intelligence plays a critical role in helping persons requiring social skills to help them deal with social situations. Given that building strong relationship is one aspect of effective leadership, there is need for organizational leaders to build capacity in social skills for better organizational performance. Leaders can also utilize the concept of emotional intelligence to enhance their decision-making skills. Emotionally intelligent decision makers rely on self-awareness and self-management to determine their appropriate duties in decision making process. Decision makers use these skills to determine whether they have the necessary orientation to a problem.
Emotionally intelligent leaders strive for the establishment of effective teams to help realize organizational and team goals. Effective teams have clear purpose and goals, engage in consensus decision making, shared leadership and embrace open communication. To develop effective teams, departmental managers must define the team’s purpose and goals, define the roles for each group member and quickly identify and resolve conflicts. Finally, there is need to develop both extrinsic and intrinsic reward systems for employee motivation and improved performance.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

Running Head MOTIVATING PROJECT TEAM STRATEGY 1.docx
- 1. Running Head: MOTIVATING PROJECT TEAM STRATEGY 1 Motivating Project Team Strategy Marchello Williams HR Project Management MPM468-1804B-01 11/28/18 Motivating Project Team Strategy Binder (2016) defines motivation as the potency that initiates, escorts and conserves goal-oriented performance. It is a psychological trait. The method I will employ in the determination on how my team members will be motivated is the Atman test. Atman test can be defined as a scientifically authenticated psychometric instrument that measures characteristic of character. This method is based on the personality theory factors. Atman test accounts for 11 dimensions of individual personality through grouping them into five sections which
- 2. include; thinking structure, motivation, leadership, sociability, and resistance to stress. In order to carry out a successful motivating assessment, one needs to understand what motivates the employees as well as what demotivates them, hence the reason why dimensions that are out of motivation are included in this test to equip the motivator with the full picture of employees personality. To carry out an assessment with this method, employees are required to fill the Atman platform, which can be done from any computer, thereafter the motivator goes back to the platform and views the employee's results. Atman platforms evaluate 11 dimensions of the bipolar scale. For instance, the sociability scale depicts the state of the employee between being introverted and being extroverted. Nature scale, on the other hand, depicts what motivates employees in one hand as well as demotivating them from the other hand. Atman test reveals to the motivator the kind of employees available. They can either be team oriented or result oriented. The test also reveals if the employees are traditional or adaptable. Result oriented employees will be motivated to attain the aimed results. Team oriented, on the other hand, cannot be motivated directly, this motivation can demotivate them. Traditional employees who are used to work as per their policies fail to catch up in structured work plans, this will demotivate them. Adaptable employees catch up with any structure thus easily motivated. Describe the theory that most closely aligns with how you intend to motivate your team. The Big five theory is the one that most closely aligns to Atman test motivation assessment. Big five theory refers to a research in the field of psychology which that is founded from the notion that common personality traits are captured by five dimensions, the O-C-E-A-N mnemonic. This mnemonic stands for openness to experience, conscientiousness, extroversion,
- 3. agreeableness, and neuroticism (Turner, 2014). Openness to experience High scorers in this dimension are curious, nontraditional and creative in general and they easily break the mold of typical approaches because of their intellectual curiosity. Low scores in this dimension are conventional and tend to be vigilant when confronted with problems. Conscientiousness Those who score high in this dimensions tend to be responsible, self-disciplined and more organized in carrying out their tasks. They include top performing students in academic performance and the employees who persevere and strive to ensure that they excel. The low scorers tend to be careless, unstructured in their jobs and are always close to chaos. Extroversion Those who score high here tend to be energetic and assertive. The low scorers are those that are victims of casting spotlight on their fellows and are victims of misinterpretation of issues. Agreeableness Those who score high in this dimension tend to be more tender-minded, trusting and good- nurtured. They are best performers in non-profitable organizations and they play roles beyond their limits when they want to assist. Those who score low here tend to be selfish and cold in carrying out their tasks.
- 4. Neuroticism Sometimes referred to as emotional instability. Those who score high here tend to be emotional distress. Those who score low have a negative tendency of interpreting situations thus making it difficult for them to cope with the stressor (Le Roy & Fernandez, 2015). In general, there is no perfect result that will crown top scorers better than the low scores in these diminutions. What determines the score is the type of job, the context and the situation of the job where the theory is being made use of. Describe which facilitation techniques you will use to have the project team input to the motivation plan and which team- building activities that you plan to implement. Provide a visual example. Facilitation techniques Treating motivation as a complex topic: Assigning predetermined employees motivation is a trap that one should take care not become a victim. There is no journal that will clearly explain the source of ambitions to your employees. Therefore motivation should be treated as a complex aspect that has deep roots and one should take enough time to understand what gears his/her employees. Encourage members to work smarter and not harder: Valuable experiences should be impacted into the employers rather than encouraging them to work hard at all times. Employees should be provided with an environment full of resources and support alongside emphasis of the purpose. This will enhance their fitting into your plan. Hire wisely: Motivated individuals should be scrutinized during the hiring process. This offers a feel for the potential outlook of
- 5. the advertised job. Take care of your people: Neglecting workers basic needs of your people will demotivate them. Giving them what belongs to them and listening and reacting to their grievances shows them that you really care for them, this will enhance their fitting into your plan. Team building activities Team building activities refer to the entire activities that work to enhance the social relationships as well as role definition within teams. A number of activities are involved. Some of these activities include Training, coaching, supporting one another, motivating each other, offering solutions to colleagues when they are in need, advanced collaboration and overall support. What activities or tasks have you added to the project plan to make sure that this important activity is not overlooked? Collaboration Collaboration involves working together towards one goal by sharing minds and ideas. This task will work to serve the following. Enhancing reasoning and brainstorming ideas to generate solutions by bringing groups together whereby each group will provide different perspectives to the problem underway. Putting heads together implies better and quick solutions. Enhancing the equal participation of the members included. Collaboration opens up communication in all dimensions and this encourages new ideas from all levels within an organization and not just the top officials. Enhances a strong sense of purpose. Truly cooperating groups get to understand the value of working together. They tend to
- 6. understand the meaningfulness of working together and distinguishing this from forced work. Coaching Team coaching refers to an approach of evaluating how team members operate and thereafter generating the means through which their functioning can be enhanced. Coaching includes the following. Partnership with team elder for easy identification of the goals Proactive engagement in productive conversations with your team members Conducting a coaching evolutions Organizing an individual meeting to support the progress.
