1) The document discusses the shift in healthcare from fee-for-service to fee-for-value and value-based care. It outlines challenges around information exchange, process automation, and community collaboration that are key to scaling partnerships under value-based models.
2) Edifecs is introduced as a partnership platform that can address these challenges through integrated data, automated workflows, and shared intelligence across organizations.
3) The platform is depicted as enabling various components of value-based care including population health monitoring, intervention programs, and payment calculations.
Negotiation skills are vital in new business environment and many organizations reach to the conclusion to teach their employees these skills. As a 10 year tutor of this workshop, I use movies and several cases to show participants how they use these skills in an effective way for their organizations and themselves.
Managing agriculture knowledge: role of information and communication techno...Mohsen Sharifirad
The document discusses challenges in knowledge management for agriculture and how information and communication technologies (ICT) can help address them. It gives examples of using content management systems, geographic information systems, decision support systems, and text mining to build applications like a national agriculture research information system, an indigenous knowledge system, and a virtual extension and research network in Egypt. ICT can help share and disseminate agricultural knowledge more effectively.
The document discusses grounded theory, a qualitative research methodology. It provides background on the development of grounded theory in the 1960s and describes some of its key aspects, such as theoretical sampling and constant comparison analysis. Grounded theory is an inductive approach where theories are developed based on data collected and analyzed. The goal is to generate a theory that is grounded in or emerges from the data.
Qualitative research is a type of scientific research that seeks to understand a research problem from the perspectives of the local population involved. It provides complex descriptions of how people experience issues and identifies intangible factors like social norms. Common qualitative methods are participant observation, in-depth interviews, and focus groups. Qualitative research is flexible and allows open-ended questions and probing of participants' responses to generate rich, explanatory data.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
This document discusses the listening team technique for active learning. It begins by defining active learning as requiring deeper planning than traditional lectures and involving opportunities for students to talk, write, read and reflect on course content.
It then explains the listening team technique, where students are broken into groups and each member is assigned a role like questioner, giver, agrees or disagrees. As they listen to a lecture or video, they think of examples, questions and areas of agreement/disagreement. After, they meet to share ideas and finalize contributions to share with the class.
The document notes advantages like encouraging focus, an informal setting, and solidifying knowledge. It also lists limitations such as potential time consumption,
Buzz groups are small temporary discussion groups of about 6 people who meet for around 6 minutes to discuss a topic. They are formed to generate ideas, solve problems, or reach agreement on an issue. Buzz groups allow for more participation than large group discussions. Members are tasked with appointing a spokesperson to report back the group's discussion. They are advantageous for preventing classes from centering around only a few voices and for drawing out quieter students. However, leader domination, poor environment, lack of preparation, and immature members can hinder productive discussion. Buzz groups are used by adults to decide meeting details and programs, and by students to save class time and discuss multiple aspects of a project simultaneously.
Different cultures have diverse concepts of leadership. The Lewis Culture Model classifies cultures into three main types: linear-active, multi-active, and reactive. Linear-active cultures like Germany value structure and efficiency, while multi-active cultures like Italy prioritize relationships. Reactive cultures such as Japan emphasize harmony. Leadership styles also vary across European countries, from the autocratic style in France to the consensus-based approach in the Netherlands. Cultural dimensions must be considered to understand behaviors and avoid giving offense across borders.
1. The quality of USAID evaluation reports has generally improved over 2009-2012, with improvements in factors like use of multiple data collection methods and identification of limitations. However, some factors did not improve.
2. USAID evaluation reports excelled in basic characteristics but fell short in factors like distinguishing findings from conclusions/recommendations and including an evaluation specialist.
3. Overall quality of USAID evaluations was moderately high but could be improved by increasing involvement of evaluation specialists and guidance on new standards.
This document discusses five philosophical traditions in adult education: liberal, behaviorist, progressive, humanist, and radical. Each tradition is based on assumptions about human nature, the purpose of education, and the roles of the teacher and learner. The liberal tradition views the teacher as an expert who transmits knowledge and the learner seeks intellectual development. The behaviorist tradition sees the teacher as a manager who controls learning and the learner practices behaviors. The progressive tradition considers the teacher a guide of experiential learning and the learner solves problems. The humanist tradition views the teacher as a facilitator of self-directed learning and the learner pursues growth. Finally, the radical tradition promotes equality between the teacher and learner to enact social change through critical
This document provides highlights and key concepts for an exam on structural equation modeling (SEM). It defines terms like path coefficients, direct/indirect/total effects, identification, and discusses techniques for assessing model fit. Identification issues are more likely for models with large numbers of coefficients, reciprocal effects, or many similar concepts. The document also outlines steps in SEM like model specification, identification, estimation, and respecification.
