April 1999: Our 5-year-old friend Rachel was fascinated by the concept that Kent was my "boyfriend". NO ONE knew we were getting married -- we hadn't even told our parents yet. But Rachel made this at school and gave it to us a week before we left on what would be our wedding trip. A friend had it laminated and bound for us as a wedding gift.

Theorists such as Freud, Piaget, Vygotsky, and Erikson, have been studying child development for decades. These notable figures have contributed significantly to the study of child development. Understanding the basic theoretical tenants will deepen your professional knowledge of how young children develop and how that relates to your work with children. By completing this discussion, you will be meeting Weekly Learning Outcome 3.

1. Individual Development Plan (IDP) Due 616The purpose of.docxjackiewalcutt
1. Individual Development Plan (IDP)
Due: 6/16
The purpose of this exercise is to:
Help you develop and improve goal-setting skills, a critical element for all facets of one’s personal and professional life;
Provide the opportunity for you to take personal responsibility for your development by helping you reflect on where you are and where you want to go for this term and beyond;
Serve as a guide for conversations between you and your mentors (internship supervisor and program advisor) to ensure that you are getting the help you need in achieving your goals.
Discuss your Individual Development Plan with your internship mentor so that he/she can provide appropriate assistance and guidance to you throughout the semester.
The plan has three parts that are described below. Each is a critical element of the goal-setting process.
Part 1: Analysis of Your Strengths and Areas for Improvement
In this section, you should answer a series of reflective questions as a way to assist you with identifying the strengths you should leverage, as well as areas of improvement. The format for responses to these questions can be in a narrative format or presented as a series of direct responses. Please review the questions in the Individual Development Plan Supplement at the end of this document for further guidance on this section.
Part 2: Summary of Goals and Action Steps
After you complete Part 1, you will create the goals section of your plan. The goals should be related to specific goals you want to accomplish this semester and should take into consideration your responses from Part 1. There are five areas we want you to consider. They include: Leadership, Professional Development, Civic Engagement, Academic Development, and Personal Growth. You should identify one to two (1-2) goals in each area, and then create two to three (2-3) specific action steps you will take to achieve each of the goals. You should have a total of eight to ten (8-10) goals. More guidance on each of the five areas is provided in the Individual Development Plan Supplement at the end of this document.
Part 3: Putting it all Together
After you have written your goals section, you will write a brief (100-200 word) summary explaining how the action steps you plan to take to achieve your short-term goals will enable you to ultimately accomplish your long-term plans as identified in Part 1. While writing your summary, be sure to indicate what resources you may need beyond this semester to accomplish your long-term plans.

BDPA Cincinnati brought three (3) experienced IT recruiters to the roundtable. They answered all of the questions you’ve always wanted to ask … but, were afraid to do. It was an outstanding opportunity for anyone, from college interns to entry-level IT professionals to experienced technicians, managers, or executives. The audience received the ‘inside scoop’ on what it takes to successfully land a job, promotion, or have a successful career in the IT industry.
Our panel included:
- Karen Cooper (owner, SmartIT)
- Karen Lipscomb (senior talent acquisition manager, L3-Communications)
- Linda Mullen (assistant VP, Fifth Third Bank)
Corporate America is rebounding from the Great Recession and unemployment continues to lag at levels that are much too high in the Black community and the Greater Cincinnati area. As such, we want to lift the curtain of secrecy about the recruitment process so that BDPA members and supporters have every advantage to advance their careers in the IT industry.

Interview Research and Preparation: communicate your brand
Late assignments are not accepted
Introduction Once your brand is created, you need to communicate it in writing and verbally. An interview is a prime example of verbally communicating your brand to the employer you are following. In this assignment, compose responses to some popular first interview questions. The effort it takes to consider and formulate responses, and then compose them, pays off in our ability to articulate them clearly in a face-to-face interview.
Directions
1. Reflect upon and apply what you learned about researching a company in weeks two and three of class.
2. Drawing from the information you have researched through business databases, company websites, and other resources, you will compose informed, branded responses to the first round interview questions listed below. (Questions 1 through 11 replicate the questions you will respond to for the Mock Interview assignment).
3. Use the tips located under each question as you consider and compose your responses for the company and job vacancy you submitted the first week of class.
4. Once completed and proofread, you will submit the Microsoft Word document in the Blackboard Assignment Drop Box by Sunday, February 5, 11:59 p.m.
Ensure that you observe the Blackboard verification for submission. An assignment that you think was submitted, yet is not in the Grade Center, will not be considered. Take a screen shot of the verification message and save it to ensure there are no questions regarding the validity of the submission.
Interview Research and Preparation Questions (55 points—5 points for each response)
Compose written responses to the questions below as if you were interviewing for the position you selected for your Job Vacancy assignment. Each response will be given a value of 0 through 5 points (0-2=Needs Improvement, 3-4=Acceptable, 5=Excellent). Please be specific, not general! Use the Sample Submission on pages 3 through 6 as a guide.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
