The document discusses different perspectives on managerial decision making. Some believe decisions should follow a rational, step-by-step process, while others argue intuition plays a key role given time constraints and complex problems managers face. The article examines research finding managers often rely on intuition, defined as quick judgments based on deep experience. While intuition seems to occur automatically, it can be improved by developing expertise over time. Both rational analysis and intuition may complement each other in the decision making process.

This document provides an overview of 11 articles written by doctoral students at Prairie View A&M University exploring the implementation of William Allan Kritsonis' Ways of Knowing Through the Realms of Meaning as a conceptual framework for strategic planning in education. The articles discuss how the six realms of meaning - symbolics, empirics, esthetics, synnoetics, ethics and synoptics - can be applied to areas like professional learning communities, instructional leadership, and school improvement planning. The document introduces each article and explains that they were written to partially fulfill a course requirement taught by Dr. Kritsonis on using his realms of meaning framework for strategic planning.
This document contains information from William Allan Kritsonis, a professor at Prairie View A&M University, on various topics related to personal and professional development such as managing anger, discovering strengths and beliefs, decision making, and managing money. It provides questionnaires to help with self-reflection on these topics. The documents appear to be designed to help individuals improve themselves both personally and professionally through introspection and awareness of behaviors, beliefs, and financial habits.
This study examines the influence of parents on first-generation college students' decisions to persist in their education. It finds that while first-generation students report high levels of self-efficacy, they perceive only moderate levels of support from their parents. Parents provide low levels of help and involvement for first-generation students. There is no correlation found between parental influence and students' self-efficacy. The study concludes that institutions should develop programs to replace the lack of parental support for first-generation students, such as peer mentoring programs and resources to help parents understand the college experience.

The document discusses God making an unbreakable covenant with Abram (later known as Abraham). God promised Abram that he would make him into a great nation and bless all people on earth through him. To seal the covenant, Abram brought various animals and cut them in half, then God passed between the pieces, demonstrating the seriousness of the promise. The document also references Steven and Julie questioning if God could ever use them or if they could be recipients of God's grace, and cites a Bible passage about God blessing the Israelites.
This document discusses recommendations for selecting campus administrators based on William Kritsonis' book "Ways of Knowing Through the Realms of Meaning". It provides 10 recommendations for human resource managers to consider when selecting administrators. The recommendations include thoroughly analyzing an administrator's philosophy of education to determine fit, determining a candidate's goals and priorities, selecting administrators knowledgeable in instructional processes, demonstrating personal scholarship, preparing differentiated staff development, implementing strategic plans considering development factors, and involving stakeholders in decision making. The purpose is to discuss how Kritsonis' framework can be implemented in human resource management to improve school leader quality.
This document discusses legal issues related to education in the United States. It begins by explaining that the 10th Amendment gives states responsibility for public education. Key court cases are discussed, including those related to separation of church and state, desegregation, students' rights, and teachers' rights. The rights of teachers can differ slightly from other citizens, as schools have an interest in maintaining order, but teachers are generally afforded due process protections.
Homoeopathy is presented as the fore runner of modern science by applying principles at the microscopic level. It works based on the concepts of vital force, levels of action, and electropositivity and negativity to cure diseases. Key homoeopathic concepts discussed include drug provings, drug dynamisation, and the principle of similia similibus curentur. The document differentiates the homoeopathic and allopathic approaches and states that modern medicine works at the root/atomic level, like homoeopathy. It provides examples of common homoeopathic remedies.
This phenomenological study investigated the lived experiences of 6 African American women in predominantly white doctoral programs in educational leadership. The findings showed the women dealt with issues like discrimination from white professors and a sense of white privilege/entitlement from white students. However, they also thrived due to mentoring from black professors and bonding with black students. The study aims to give voice to the experiences of these women and implications include developing strategies to reduce feelings of marginalization and having more black women share their experiences.
Selected Spotlights on Informatics Education in AustriaPeter Micheuz
This document discusses informatics education in Austrian schools. It provides examples of fields of activity and research around developing competence models, interventions in primary education, and reforms to the lower secondary curriculum and "Matura" exam. It outlines the stratified Austrian school system and describes efforts to introduce informatics at various levels, from non-formal education in primary schools to an obligatory 9th grade subject and electives in upper secondary. The document also notes inconsistencies between schools in their Matura exam topics in informatics and calls for a more standardized approach. Overall it aims to establish informatics as a foundation for digital education across the Austrian education system.
This document provides guidance for teachers on developing number sense and numeration skills in students from kindergarten to grade 3. It outlines the big ideas in number sense and numeration, general principles of instruction, and characteristics of learning and instructional strategies for each grade. Specific topics covered include counting, operational sense, quantity, relationships, and representation. Learning activities with accompanying blackline masters are also provided for each grade level.

The document discusses plans for a green marketing campaign by Samsung and AT&T to promote the Samsung Universe mobile phone. The campaign would partner with the World Wildlife Fund and a gaming company called Xeko to encourage environmentally-friendly behaviors and raise money for conservation efforts through a phone recycling program, donations, and a gaming app.
The document describes a student's recollections and experiences from various school events and activities over multiple years, including dressing up as Willy Wonka for World Book Day, making a cookie snake for Chinese New Year, playing a shepherd in a Christmas play, enjoying cycling to school, finding the school holidays fun, watching Brazil in the 2012 Olympics, and liking a visit from author Julia Donaldson.
This document discusses how advertising agencies can improve their creative processes by adopting an approach similar to how police investigations are conducted in the first 48 hours after a crime.
The key points are:
- Police work intensely and collaboratively in the first 48 hours after a crime to pursue all leads rapidly and in parallel before evidence is lost. This approach generates many insights from diverse sources.
- Advertising agencies traditionally use a "few people, slow" approach rather than involving their whole teams and working quickly. This limits insights and opportunities.
- Agencies should adopt a "many people, fast" approach in the first 48 hours after receiving a brief to generate new perspectives and insights from across disciplines before the brief becomes constrained.
This document discusses the concept of "open" as it relates to open source software and open cloud computing. It explores different definitions of open, including the four freedoms that define open source. It also addresses questions around who benefits from openness and how business models have evolved around open source. The document encourages questioning assumptions and perspectives on openness.
The document discusses different views of the afterlife from various religious texts. It examines concepts like Sheol/Hades from the Old Testament, which portray the afterlife as a shadowy place where the dead exist. The New Testament introduces ideas of resurrection and life after death. Jesus is said to have descended into hell after death. Hell is associated with the valley of Hinnom and the idea of eternal punishment. In the end, death and hell will be destroyed as God establishes a new heaven and earth.

The document summarizes many laws governing curriculum and accountability issues in Texas public schools. It discusses requirements for core curriculum and enrichment courses. It also outlines student assessment and testing policies, the accountability system for school districts and campuses, and legal issues around topics like gifted/at-risk students, bilingual education, homeschooling, and more. While efforts have decentralized some control to local districts, federal and state authorities still mandate much of the curriculum and implement strong accountability measures aimed at reducing dropouts and improving achievement.
