As a healthcare administrator/manager, it is in your best
interest to help the facility you serve to move in the
direction charted in the National Quality Strategy (Joshi et
al., 2014). Organizations that fail to meet set standards are
known to face sanctions and sometimes required to close
shop. In consideration of this, you will want to ensure that
the facility you manage is adopting a culture of quality that
puts its patients at the center of healthcare delivery. You will
want to do this by making sure that your facility provides
quality patient care, while also keeping the facility’s
bottom-line healthy.

The Bank of America Earnings Crisis
In 2020, many businesses experienced notable challenges due to the outbreak of the coronavirus. The Bank of America was no exception based on its reports of firm earnings in 2020. According to Eisen (2021), many large financial organizations in the United States withstood the recession due to COVID-19. However, the author explains that the banks have not been fully protected against the minimal rates brought about by the pandemic. For Bank of America, the outcomes of the COVID-19 outbreak have been felt in many ways, particularly the reduction of earnings by 22%. Additionally, lenders have also experienced significant challenges based on low-interest rates, and Bank of America is among them. Since the financial institution gains earnings on the difference between their lending payments and what they pay to depositors, the bank's interest rates downfall. The earnings crisis also affected the firm's operations in the last quarter of 2020 even though it made considerable profits.
Communication Tactics and Addressing the Crisis
Handling a crisis in organizations presents notable problems for managers and leaders that do not understand the proper ways of solving a crisis. Warren Buffet explains that there are four significant steps a leader can take to address a crisis. First, getting the crisis right and understanding why it happens and what can stop it will help address the crisis. The Bank of America leaders understood that the company needs to introduce measures that will increase the earnings. Secondly, according to Buffet, responding to the crisis fast is also a core step in managing a crisis. The Bank of America did not wait until the last quarter of 2020 to react to the earnings crisis. Rather, they resorted to ensuring the loan demands are stabilized by business consumers and focused more on investment activities (Eisen, 2021). The third and fourth steps based on Warren's advice involve getting the crisis out by dealing with it and getting over with. Th.

In the scenario, the United States will be hit by a large-scale, coordinated cyber attack organized by China. These attacks debilitate the functioning of government agencies, parts of the critical infrastructure, and commercial ventures. The IT infrastructure of several agencies are paralyzed, the electric grid in most of the country is shut down, telephone traffic is seriously limited and satellite communications are down (limiting the Department of Defense’s [DOD’s] ability to communicate with commands overseas).

CHAPTER:1Introduction
Sustainable tourism is a form of tourism, which requires a tourist to respect the local culture, environment, preserving cultural heritage, and supporting local economies by purchasing local products which also benefits the people of that country. Sustainable tourism is a form of development, which is Social development, Economic development and Nature protection. According to the World Tourism Organization, Sustainable tourism is “Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment, and host communities” UNWTO (2013). Denmark is more concerned about sustainable environment, for instance the Government is aiming at Copenhagen becoming the world’s first carbon-neutral capital by 2025. Government have put high taxation on vehicles, cars so Danes have to think twice before buying or using them. This could be the strategy of the nation. As they are on the way to gain something remarkable, they also have some challenges. The tourism industry has a million of turnover in Danish economy and Danish government puts a high effort in order to make it more sustainable. The big topic could be how the tourist react on it? All the government efforts could be result less if the customer and the business does not act smart. To the Danes, sustainability is a holistic approach that includes renewable energy, water management, waste recycling and green transportation including bicycle culture. Most of the local restaurants use re-usable things during their service also, practices waste deposable for take away.
Tourism is the best way to experience the culture however, damage and waste can occur due to inappropriate behavior of tourists. According to the Denmark statics (2019), every year tourist spends around 128 billion DKK in Denmark. Denmark is very responsible towards environment and most of the hotels are practicing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For example, Scandic Kødbyen is one of the hotels practicing sustainability, first to implement CSR. It plays a significant support in sustainable tourism business, which includes hotel, restaurant and the service provided sectors. Visit Copenhagen states that 70% of hotels hold an official eco-certification and also known as the hap.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, please read The Diamond
That Cuts through Illusion with a serene mind, a mind
free from views. It’s the basic sutra for the practice of
meditation. Late at night, it’s a pleasure to recite the
Diamond Sutra alone, in complete silence. The sutra is
so deep and wonderful. It has its own language. The
first Western scholars who obtained the text thought it
was talking nonsense. Its language seems mysterious,
but when you look deeply, you can understand.
Don’t rush into the commentaries or you may be
unduly influenced by them. Please read the sutra first.
You may see things that no commentator has seen. You
can read as if you were chanting, using your clear body
and mind to be in touch with the words. Try to
understand the sutra from your own experiences and
your own suffering. It is helpful to ask, “Do these
teachings of the Buddha have anything to do with my
daily life?” Abstract ideas can be beautiful, but if they
have nothing to do with our life, of what use are they?
So please ask, “Do the words have anything to do with
eating a meal, drinking tea, cutting wood, or carrying
water?”
The sutra’s full name is The Diamond That Cuts
through Illusion, Vajracchedika Prajñaparamita in
Sanskrit. Vajracchedika means “the diamond that cuts
through afflictions, ignorance, delusion, or illusion.” In
China and Vietnam, people generally call it the Diamond
Sutra, emphasizing the word “diamond,” but, in fact,
the phrase “cutting through” is the most important.
Prajñaparamita means “per.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, please read The Diamond
That Cuts through Illusion with a serene mind, a mind
free from views. It’s the basic sutra for the practice of
meditation. Late at night, it’s a pleasure to recite the
Diamond Sutra alone, in complete silence. The sutra is
so deep and wonderful. It has its own language. The
first Western scholars who obtained the text thought it
was talking nonsense. Its language seems mysterious,
but when you look deeply, you can understand.
Don’t rush into the commentaries or you may be
unduly influenced by them. Please read the sutra first.
You may see things that no commentator has seen. You
can read as if you were chanting, using your clear body
and mind to be in touch with the words. Try to
understand the sutra from your own experiences and
your own suffering. It is helpful to ask, “Do these
teachings of the Buddha have anything to do with my
daily life?” Abstract ideas can be beautiful, but if they
have nothing to do with our life, of what use are they?
So please ask, “Do the words have anything to do with
eating a meal, drinking tea, cutting wood, or carrying
water?”
The sutra’s full name is The Diamond That Cuts
through Illusion, Vajracchedika Prajñaparamita in
Sanskrit. Vajracchedika means “the diamond that cuts
through afflictions, ignorance, delusion, or illusion.” In
China and Vietnam, people generally call it the Diamond
Sutra, emphasizing the word “diamond,” but, in fact,
the phrase “cutting through” is the most important.
Prajñaparamita means “per.

Taiwan: The Tail That Wags Dogs
Michael McDevitt
[ 70 ]
execu tive summary
asia p olicy
This essay explores how Taiwan has been able to seize the political initiative
from China, Japan, and the United States.
main argument
Taiwan has attained this leverage due to the interrelationship of four factors:
• Strategic considerations stemming from Taiwan’s geographic position lead
Tokyo and Washington to prefer the status quo, while leading China to
strive for reunification. China’s increasing military power, however, may
suggest a Chinese intention to change the status quo.
• Shared democratic values and the fact that the “democracy issue” has great-
ly prolonged the timetable for reunification give Taipei political influence
in both Washington and Tokyo.
• China’s constant threats of force actually empower Taipei in its relationship
with Washington, and cause the United States to plan for the worst.
• Taiwan is a litmus test of U.S. credibility as an ally, a condition that in turn
creates a perception on the island that U.S. military backing is uncondi-
tional.
policy implications
• Taipei’s high-risk diplomatic approach carries with it the very real possibil-
ity of miscalculation, which could easily lead to great power conflict.
• The United States would benefit from exploring with Beijing ways in which
to demilitarize the issue of Taiwan independence so that the threat of great
power conflict over Taiwan is greatly moderated.
• Tensions may eventually lessen substantially if Beijing can be encouraged to
substitute political deterrence for military deterrence.
• In order to ensure that the U.S. position in the region would survive a
Taipei-provoked conflict should the United States choose not to become
directly involved, Washington can undertake extensive talks with Japan de-
signed to ensure that Japan does not lose confidence in Washington.
organization of the essay
The first four sections of the essay respectively explore the four factors of the
complex U.S.-Taiwan-Japan-China relationship outlined above:

TABLE 1-1 Milestones of Medicine and Medical Education 1700–2015 ■.docx
TABLE 1-1 Milestones of Medicine and Medical Education 1700–2015 ■ 1700s: Training and apprenticeship under one physician was common until hospitals were founded in the mid-1700s. In 1765, the first medical school was established at the University of Pennsylvania. ■ 1800s: Medical training was provided through internships with existing physicians who often were poorly trained themselves. In the United States, there were only four medical schools, which graduated only a handful of students. There was no formal tuition with no mandatory testing. ■ 1847: The AMA was established as a membership organization for physicians to protect the interests of its members. It did not become powerful until the 1900s when it organized its physician members by county and state medical societies. The AMA wanted to ensure these local societies were protecting physicians’ financial well-being. It also began to focus on standardizing medical education. ■ 1900s–1930s: The medical profession was represented by general or family practitioners who operated in solo practices. A small percentage of physicians were women. Total expenditures for medical care were less than 4% of the gross domestic product. ■ 1904: The AMA created the Council on Medical Education to establish standards for medical education. ■ 1910: Formal medical education was attributed to Abraham Flexner, who wrote an evaluation of medical schools in the United States and Canada indicating many schools were substandard. The Flexner Report led to standardized admissions testing for students called the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), which is still used as part of the admissions process today. ■ 1930s: The healthcare industry was dominated by male physicians and hospitals. Relationships between patients and physicians were sacred. Payments for physician care were personal. ■ 1940s–1960s: When group health insurance was offered, the relationship between patient and physician changed because of third-party payers (insurance). In the 1950s, federal grants supported medical school operations and teaching hospitals. In the 1960s, the Regional Medical Programs provided research grants and emphasized service innovation and provider networking. As a result of the Medicare and Medicaid enactment in 1965, the responsibilities of teaching faculty also included clinical responsibilities. ■ 1970s–1990s: Patient care dollars surpassed research dollars as the largest source of medical school funding. During the 1980s, third-party payers reimbursed academic medical centers with no restrictions. In the 1990s with the advent of managed care, reimbursement was restricted. ■ 2014: According to the 2014 Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMAC) annual survey, over 70% of medical schools have or will be implementing policies and programs to encourage primary care specialties for medical school students.

Tackling wicked problems A public policy perspective Ple.docx
Tackling wicked problems : A
public policy perspective
Please note - this is an archived publication.
Commissioner’s foreword
The Australian Public Service (APS) is increasingly being tasked with solving very
complex policy problems. Some of these policy issues are so complex they have
been called ‘wicked’ problems. The term ‘wicked’ in this context is used, not in the
sense of evil, but rather as an issue highly resistant to resolution.
Successfully solving or at least managing these wicked policy problems requires
a reassessment of some of the traditional ways of working and solving problems
in the APS. They challenge our governance structures, our skills base and our
organisational capacity.
It is important, as a first step, that wicked problems be recognised as such.
Successfully tackling wicked problems requires a broad recognition and
understanding, including from governments and Ministers, that there are no quick
fixes and simple solutions.
Tackling wicked problems is an evolving art. They require thinking that is capable
of grasping the big picture, including the interrelationships among the full range of
causal factors underlying them. They often require broader, more collaborative
and innovative approaches. This may result in the occasional failure or need for
policy change or adjustment.
Wicked problems highlight the fundamental importance of the APS building on the
progress that has been made with working across organisational boundaries both
within and outside the APS. The APS needs to continue to focus on effectively
engaging stakeholders and citizens in understanding the relevant issues and in
involving them in identifying possible solutions.
The purpose of this publication is more to stimulate debate around what is
needed for the successful tackling of wicked problems than to provide all the
answers. Such a debate is a necessary precursor to reassessing our current
systems, frameworks and ways of working to ensure they are capable of
responding to the complex issues facing the APS.
I hope that this publication will encourage public service managers to reflect on
these issues, and to look for ways to improve the capacity of the APS to deal
effectively with the complex policy problems confronting us.
Lynelle Briggs
Australian Public Service Commissioner
1. Introduction
Many of the most pressing policy challenges for the APS involve dealing with very
complex problems. These problems share a range of characteristics—they go
beyond the capacity of any one organisation to understand and respond to, and
there is often disagreement about the causes of the problems and the best way to
tackle them. These complex policy problems are sometimes called ‘wicked’
problems.
Usually, part of the solution to wicked problems involves changing the behaviour
of groups of citizens or all citizens. Other key ingredients in solving or at least
managing complex policy problems include successfu.

Useful tips (part 1)
1 Often the number of classes in a frequency distribution is the same as the
number of categories found in the data. Most statisticians recommend
that classes with smaller frequencies be grouped into an aggregate class
called „other”. Classes with frequencies of 5% or less would most often be
treated in this fashion.
2 The sum of the frequencies in any frequency distribution always equals
the number of observations. The sum of the relative frequencies in any
relative frequency distribution.

Tajfel and Turner (in chapter two of our reader) give us the followi.docx
Tajfel and Turner (in chapter two of our reader) give us the following definition of Social Identity Theory: "SIT proposes that individuals make sense of their social environment by categorizing themselves and others into groups that can be contrasted with others" (Oksanen et al., 2014). SIT brings order to chaos, you might say, in that individuals define themselves as being different from everyone else.
Considering what we have read about the perpetrators of group violence, how do you suppose that it is that people make the leap from their own social identity to group violence? What social and psychological mechanisms are at work that would go from simple categorization to overt violence?

Tableau Homework 3 – Exploring Chart Types with QVC Data .docx
Tableau Homework 3 – Exploring Chart Types with QVC Data
Getting familiar with the data
You will focus on five dimensions as you start to explore the QVC data:
• order date (Order Dt)
• merchandise department (Merchandise Dept)
• region of the country (Region)
• customer state (Ship To State)
• location of the originating warehouse (Warehouse Zip).
You will use five measures:
• price (Total Line Amt)
• number of orders (Number of Records)
• average order value (AOV to be calculated)
• delivery time ([Days Shipped] to be calculated)
Create two calculated fields:
AOV = SUM([Total Line Amt])/SUM([Number of Records]). On the Data Pane, change the number
format to Currency with 2 decimal places.
Days Shipped = CEILING( [Delivery Confirmation Dt]-[Shipped Dt])
In the next homework, we will explore additional measures to address the QVC analytics challenge more
explicitly. In this homework, the primary goal is to continue to build basic Tableau skills for creating
tables, maps, and charts.
Change the label in the Region dimension for Alaska and Hawaii:
Alaska and Hawaii were not assigned a region in the input data, but we are going to change the Null
label to AK/HI. Depending on the context, we may filter out these states.
To change the label, go to the blue pill for Region and right-click (or click on the down arrow) to get the
menu of actions. Select Aliases…. In the pop-up box, change the alias for Null to AK/HI.
For the rest of the course, you are expected to have complete titles on every worksheet you complete. I
will guide you through this process for the first few worksheets.
Chapter 19 – Highlight Tables
1. Create a text table with merchandise departments for rows and the sum of sales (Total Line Amt) in
the table. Sort in descending order by sales.
Add Region to the Columns Shelf. You should have a crosstab table with 5 columns and 11 rows of data.
Drag the Total Line Amt to the Color marks card. Change the mark type to Square. Note that the East
region has highest sales overall and the ordering within region is similar. Name the sheet Highlight
Table.
Edit the title (double-click on the Highlight Table text and type over <Sheet Name>) to be something like
‘Total sales by region and merchandise department’.
Chapter 22 – Scatter Plot
2. Open a new worksheet. Create a scatter plot of average Days Shipped (Columns Shelf) and average
order value AOV (Row Shelf). Make sure you change the default SUM aggregate function to AVG for
Days Shipped. Drag Merchandise Dept to the Detail marks card. Drag Total Line Amt to the Size marks
card.
At this point, you will want to change the axis settings so they do not include 0. Right-click on each axis,
select Edit Axis, and uncheck the Include zero box.
Add an average line for each measure. This plot highlights that the jewelry department has high average
ship times, though is a small revenue department. .

Case Study continued: Working with the family
Consider everything you have learnt about Erica and her family to date.
Critically examine how systems/ecological approaches be applied to understand the circumstances of Erica and her family. How could these theories guide your practice in this case?
Module 5 Learning Activity
“Person in environment”
Context is important
Multiple factors & levels of systems impact on people – micro, meso, macro
Theories include: General Systems Theory, Bio-Ecological Systems Theory, Person in Environment Model, Life Course Model
Broad application for practice in a range of contexts – assessment & intervention
Systems Theory Overview

Bio-Ecological Systems Perspective
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08M_K0GIti8
4
Developed in 1970s by Bronfenbrenner
Human development is influenced by the environment
Provides the theoretical foundation for the life course model of social work (Germain & Gitterman, 1980)
Adds a humanistic and dynamic element to systems theory
Process of interaction, change & adaptation
PPTC Model – Process Person Context Time
Bio-Ecological Systems Perspective
5
Multiple “systems” relevant to people’s lives
Interact in complex ways
Patterns of interaction are important for understanding human behaviour
Changes and actions in one part of the system impacts others
Networks – social networks, support networks, “connectedness”, boundaries, resources
Tools for practice – genogram & eco-map
Main concepts
6
Holistic view of client’s circumstances
Different systems and levels are always interacting and influencing each other
There are many variables to consider in assessment and intervention
Consider structural factors (link to AOP)
Context of practice & worker is also a ‘system’ to be considered
Maidment & Egan (2016 p.252)
Ecological Systems & Practice

Pincus & Minahan (1974) – 4 systems:
Change agent system (worker/agency)
Client system (client, families, groups, communities engaged with worker)
Target system (target for change - may or may not be the same as the client system)
Action system (work with for change – client, target & action systems may not be the same)

Facilitating Group Processes
Table 4.1 lists several different skills in the category of facilitating group processes. All
of these skills can be used by workers differentially, depending on their intentions when
attempting to influence various group processes. In general, however, skills in
facilitating group processes contribute to positive group outcomes when they improve
understanding among group members, build open communication channels, and
encourage the development of trust so that all members are willing to contribute as
much as they can to the problem on which the group is working.

Involving Group Members
Ideally, all members should be involved and interested in what is being discussed in the
group. Yalom (2005) has called this universalizing a group member’s experience. Involving
members who have been silent helps identify commonalities and differences in their life
experiences. As members become involved, they realize how particular problems affect them and
how a solution to one member’s problem can directly or indirectly help them. Involving others is
also essential for building group cohesiveness, developing a sense of mutual aid, and
encouraging shared decision-making.
Involving group members also means helping them take on leadership roles within the group.
The worker should be cautious about doing too much for members and thereby stifling individual
initiative. Instead of jealously guarding the leadership role, workers should encourage members
to contribute to the content of group meetings and help shape group dynamic processes. This can
be done by providing members with opportunities for leadership roles during program activities,
by praising members.

Taiwan: The Tail That Wags Dogs
Michael McDevitt
[ 70 ]
execu tive summary
asia p olicy
This essay explores how Taiwan has been able to seize the political initiative
from China, Japan, and the United States.
main argument
Taiwan has attained this leverage due to the interrelationship of four factors:
• Strategic considerations stemming from Taiwan’s geographic position lead
Tokyo and Washington to prefer the status quo, while leading China to
strive for reunification. China’s increasing military power, however, may
suggest a Chinese intention to change the status quo.
• Shared democratic values and the fact that the “democracy issue” has great-
ly prolonged the timetable for reunification give Taipei political influence
in both Washington and Tokyo.
• China’s constant threats of force actually empower Taipei in its relationship
with Washington, and cause the United States to plan for the worst.
• Taiwan is a litmus test of U.S. credibility as an ally, a condition that in turn
creates a perception on the island that U.S. military backing is uncondi-
tional.
policy implications
• Taipei’s high-risk diplomatic approach carries with it the very real possibil-
ity of miscalculation, which could easily lead to great power conflict.
• The United States would benefit from exploring with Beijing ways in which
to demilitarize the issue of Taiwan independence so that the threat of great
power conflict over Taiwan is greatly moderated.
• Tensions may eventually lessen substantially if Beijing can be encouraged to
substitute political deterrence for military deterrence.
• In order to ensure that the U.S. position in the region would survive a
Taipei-provoked conflict should the United States choose not to become
directly involved, Washington can undertake extensive talks with Japan de-
signed to ensure that Japan does not lose confidence in Washington.

complex U.S.-Taiwan-Japan-China relationship outlined above:

TABLE 1-1 Milestones of Medicine and Medical Education 1700–2015 ■.docx
TABLE 1-1 Milestones of Medicine and Medical Education 1700–2015 ■ 1700s: Training and apprenticeship under one physician was common until hospitals were founded in the mid-1700s. In 1765, the first medical school was established at the University of Pennsylvania. ■ 1800s: Medical training was provided through internships with existing physicians who often were poorly trained themselves. In the United States, there were only four medical schools, which graduated only a handful of students. There was no formal tuition with no mandatory testing. ■ 1847: The AMA was established as a membership organization for physicians to protect the interests of its members. It did not become powerful until the 1900s when it organized its physician members by county and state medical societies. The AMA wanted to ensure these local societies were protecting physicians’ financial well-being. It also began to focus on standardizing medical education. ■ 1900s–1930s: The medical profession was represented by general or family practitioners who operated in solo practices. A small percentage of physicians were women. Total expenditures for medical care were less than 4% of the gross domestic product. ■ 1904: The AMA created the Council on Medical Education to establish standards for medical education. ■ 1910: Formal medical education was attributed to Abraham Flexner, who wrote an evaluation of medical schools in the United States and Canada indicating many schools were substandard. The Flexner Report led to standardized admissions testing for students called the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), which is still used as part of the admissions process today. ■ 1930s: The healthcare industry was dominated by male physicians and hospitals. Relationships between patients and physicians were sacred. Payments for physician care were personal. ■ 1940s–1960s: When group health insurance was offered, the relationship between patient and physician changed because of third-party payers (insurance). In the 1950s, federal grants supported medical school operations and teaching hospitals. In the 1960s, the Regional Medical Programs provided research grants and emphasized service innovation and provider networking. As a result of the Medicare and Medicaid enactment in 1965, the responsibilities of teaching faculty also included clinical responsibilities. ■ 1970s–1990s: Patient care dollars surpassed research dollars as the largest source of medical school funding. During the 1980s, third-party payers reimbursed academic medical centers with no restrictions. In the 1990s with the advent of managed care, reimbursement was restricted. ■ 2014: According to the 2014 Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMAC) annual survey, over 70% of medical schools have or will be implementing policies and programs to encourage primary care specialties for medical school students.

Tackling wicked problems A public policy perspective Ple.docx
Tackling wicked problems : A
public policy perspective
Please note - this is an archived publication.
Commissioner’s foreword
The Australian Public Service (APS) is increasingly being tasked with solving very
complex policy problems. Some of these policy issues are so complex they have
been called ‘wicked’ problems. The term ‘wicked’ in this context is used, not in the
sense of evil, but rather as an issue highly resistant to resolution.
Successfully solving or at least managing these wicked policy problems requires
a reassessment of some of the traditional ways of working and solving problems
in the APS. They challenge our governance structures, our skills base and our
organisational capacity.
It is important, as a first step, that wicked problems be recognised as such.
Successfully tackling wicked problems requires a broad recognition and
understanding, including from governments and Ministers, that there are no quick
fixes and simple solutions.
Tackling wicked problems is an evolving art. They require thinking that is capable
of grasping the big picture, including the interrelationships among the full range of
causal factors underlying them. They often require broader, more collaborative
and innovative approaches. This may result in the occasional failure or need for
policy change or adjustment.
Wicked problems highlight the fundamental importance of the APS building on the
progress that has been made with working across organisational boundaries both
within and outside the APS. The APS needs to continue to focus on effectively
engaging stakeholders and citizens in understanding the relevant issues and in
involving them in identifying possible solutions.
The purpose of this publication is more to stimulate debate around what is
needed for the successful tackling of wicked problems than to provide all the
answers. Such a debate is a necessary precursor to reassessing our current
systems, frameworks and ways of working to ensure they are capable of
responding to the complex issues facing the APS.
I hope that this publication will encourage public service managers to reflect on
these issues, and to look for ways to improve the capacity of the APS to deal
effectively with the complex policy problems confronting us.
Lynelle Briggs
Australian Public Service Commissioner
1. Introduction
Many of the most pressing policy challenges for the APS involve dealing with very
complex problems. These problems share a range of characteristics—they go
beyond the capacity of any one organisation to understand and respond to, and
there is often disagreement about the causes of the problems and the best way to
tackle them. These complex policy problems are sometimes called ‘wicked’
problems.
Usually, part of the solution to wicked problems involves changing the behaviour
of groups of citizens or all citizens. Other key ingredients in solving or at least
managing complex policy problems include successfu.

Useful tips (part 1)
1 Often the number of classes in a frequency distribution is the same as the
number of categories found in the data. Most statisticians recommend
that classes with smaller frequencies be grouped into an aggregate class
called „other”. Classes with frequencies of 5% or less would most often be
treated in this fashion.
2 The sum of the frequencies in any frequency distribution always equals
the number of observations. The sum of the relative frequencies in any
relative frequency distribution.

Tajfel and Turner (in chapter two of our reader) give us the followi.docx
Tajfel and Turner (in chapter two of our reader) give us the following definition of Social Identity Theory: "SIT proposes that individuals make sense of their social environment by categorizing themselves and others into groups that can be contrasted with others" (Oksanen et al., 2014). SIT brings order to chaos, you might say, in that individuals define themselves as being different from everyone else.
Considering what we have read about the perpetrators of group violence, how do you suppose that it is that people make the leap from their own social identity to group violence? What social and psychological mechanisms are at work that would go from simple categorization to overt violence?

Tableau Homework 3 – Exploring Chart Types with QVC Data .docx
Tableau Homework 3 – Exploring Chart Types with QVC Data
Getting familiar with the data
You will focus on five dimensions as you start to explore the QVC data:
• order date (Order Dt)
• merchandise department (Merchandise Dept)
• region of the country (Region)
• customer state (Ship To State)
• location of the originating warehouse (Warehouse Zip).
You will use five measures:
• price (Total Line Amt)
• number of orders (Number of Records)
• average order value (AOV to be calculated)
• delivery time ([Days Shipped] to be calculated)
Create two calculated fields:
AOV = SUM([Total Line Amt])/SUM([Number of Records]). On the Data Pane, change the number
format to Currency with 2 decimal places.
Days Shipped = CEILING( [Delivery Confirmation Dt]-[Shipped Dt])
In the next homework, we will explore additional measures to address the QVC analytics challenge more
explicitly. In this homework, the primary goal is to continue to build basic Tableau skills for creating
tables, maps, and charts.
Change the label in the Region dimension for Alaska and Hawaii:
Alaska and Hawaii were not assigned a region in the input data, but we are going to change the Null
label to AK/HI. Depending on the context, we may filter out these states.
To change the label, go to the blue pill for Region and right-click (or click on the down arrow) to get the
menu of actions. Select Aliases…. In the pop-up box, change the alias for Null to AK/HI.
For the rest of the course, you are expected to have complete titles on every worksheet you complete. I
will guide you through this process for the first few worksheets.
Chapter 19 – Highlight Tables
1. Create a text table with merchandise departments for rows and the sum of sales (Total Line Amt) in
the table. Sort in descending order by sales.
Add Region to the Columns Shelf. You should have a crosstab table with 5 columns and 11 rows of data.
Drag the Total Line Amt to the Color marks card. Change the mark type to Square. Note that the East
region has highest sales overall and the ordering within region is similar. Name the sheet Highlight
Table.
Edit the title (double-click on the Highlight Table text and type over <Sheet Name>) to be something like
‘Total sales by region and merchandise department’.
Chapter 22 – Scatter Plot
2. Open a new worksheet. Create a scatter plot of average Days Shipped (Columns Shelf) and average
order value AOV (Row Shelf). Make sure you change the default SUM aggregate function to AVG for
Days Shipped. Drag Merchandise Dept to the Detail marks card. Drag Total Line Amt to the Size marks
card.
At this point, you will want to change the axis settings so they do not include 0. Right-click on each axis,
select Edit Axis, and uncheck the Include zero box.
Add an average line for each measure. This plot highlights that the jewelry department has high average
ship times, though is a small revenue department. .

Module 5 Learning Activity
“Person in environment”
Context is important
Multiple factors & levels of systems impact on people – micro, meso, macro
Theories include: General Systems Theory, Bio-Ecological Systems Theory, Person in Environment Model, Life Course Model
Broad application for practice in a range of contexts – assessment & intervention
Systems Theory Overview
3
Bio-Ecological Systems Perspective
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08M_K0GIti8
4
Developed in 1970s by Bronfenbrenner
Human development is influenced by the environment
Provides the theoretical foundation for the life course model of social work (Germain & Gitterman, 1980)
Adds a humanistic and dynamic element to systems theory
Process of interaction, change & adaptation
PPTC Model – Process Person Context Time
Bio-Ecological Systems Perspective
5
Multiple “systems” relevant to people’s lives
Interact in complex ways
Patterns of interaction are important for understanding human behaviour
Changes and actions in one part of the system impacts others
Networks – social networks, support networks, “connectedness”, boundaries, resources
Tools for practice – genogram & eco-map
Main concepts
6
Holistic view of client’s circumstances
Different systems and levels are always interacting and influencing each other
There are many variables to consider in assessment and intervention
Consider structural factors (link to AOP)
Context of practice & worker is also a ‘system’ to be considered
Maidment & Egan (2016 p.252)
Ecological Systems & Practice

Pincus & Minahan (1974) – 4 systems:
Change agent system (worker/agency)
Client system (client, families, groups, communities engaged with worker)
Target system (target for change - may or may not be the same as the client system)
Action system (work with for change – client, target & action systems may not be the same)

Facilitating Group Processes
Table 4.1 lists several different skills in the category of facilitating group processes. All
of these skills can be used by workers differentially, depending on their intentions when
attempting to influence various group processes. In general, however, skills in
facilitating group processes contribute to positive group outcomes when they improve
understanding among group members, build open communication channels, and
encourage the development of trust so that all members are willing to contribute as
much as they can to the problem on which the group is working.
https://jigsaw.chegg.com/books/9780134059006/epub/OPS/xhtml/fileP7000499464000000000000000000BE2.xhtml#P7000499464000000000000000000BE8
Involving Group Members
Ideally, all members should be involved and interested in what is being discussed in the
group. Yalom (2005) has called this universalizing a group member’s experience. Involving
members who have been silent helps identify commonalities and differences in their life
experiences. As members become involved, they realize how particular problems affect them and
how a solution to one member’s problem can directly or indirectly help them. Involving others is
also essential for building group cohesiveness, developing a sense of mutual aid, and
encouraging shared decision-making.
Involving group members also means helping them take on leadership roles within the group.
The worker should be cautious about doing too much for members and thereby stifling individual
initiative. Instead of jealously guarding the leadership role, workers should encourage members
to contribute to the content of group meetings and help shape group dynamic processes. This can
be done by providing members with opportunities for leadership roles during program activities,
by praising members.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
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.
