This document provides price guesses and answers for various food and clothing items, including a slice of pizza for $1.50, a hamburger for $1.29, a t-shirt for $2.50, a pair of jeans for $25.00, a donut for $1.60, and a bagel for $2.
The document discusses the importance of saving rainforests and provides facts about them. Rainforests provide many medicines and help absorb carbon dioxide. They are home to many animals and plants, yet they are being destroyed even though we rely on them. Actions like buying sustainable foods, using recycled paper, and reducing waste can help save endangered rainforests. If deforestation continues, the Amazon could disappear and it would negatively impact the climate, environment and human health.
Why a lot of employees are a little unethical at work, and what to do about i...Cindy Jo Voelker
This document discusses unethical workplace behaviors such as wasting resources and time theft. It begins by explaining that many employees engage in wasting resources like pens and paper unintentionally or due to attitudes towards their organization. This wasting of resources is considered counterproductive and can cost companies thousands of dollars annually. The document then discusses ways for managers to increase organizational commitment and reduce unethical behaviors like emphasizing costs, communicating values, and ensuring fair workloads. It emphasizes the importance of affective commitment where employees feel supported and value their work.

This is an integrated activity designed for 5th graders in an elementary school of spanish speakers in Colombia, as a complement to practice numbers in English class. It is focused on listening and reading numbers by guessing what the right price for each element is. Elements were chosen according to the students' common interests, so they are eager to take part in the game. The teacher asks students to make 3 teams. All the team members are expected to participate actively by supporting the one who is spelling the right price for the element. The teacher holds some cards with the right prices. The teams start guessing what the right price for each element is. They are supposed to say the number in correct english. On the board, the teacher writes the number of each team under the corresponding price. The sections are numbered from 1 to 20. As the slides are shown to the teams, the first one to say " We know the right price" correctly, gets priority, then the others say their options. The three chosen students to represent the teams have to say the number correctly. For each section, there have to be different students representing the teams. Once the three prices are given, the teacher shows the card he holds with the right price. The team to guess more times, is the winner. At the end, the teacher makes the comments and grades the teams according to their performance: 5.0/ 4.5/4.0. Students can not speak spanish during the exercise. In case that happens, the corresponding team will lose points.

Applying the Internet of Things to the Clinical Trial Supply ChainPAREXEL International
The document discusses applying IoT technologies to improve clinical trial supply chains. Currently, supply chain data is siloed and there is limited visibility. IoT could enable end-to-end tracking of supplies from manufacturer to patient's home, providing real-time monitoring of location and environmental conditions like temperature. This would help identify and resolve issues rapidly, reduce costs and risks, and improve accuracy at clinical trial sites. The document also discusses how mobile apps and sensors could further extend visibility and control of the supply chain.
Cost effective analysis in health care (Nursing) Naveen J HNaveen j h
Cost-effective analysis (CEA) is used to identify the most cost-effective way to achieve social and health goals when directly quantifying benefits in monetary terms is difficult. CEA calculates a cost-effectiveness ratio by dividing total costs by units of effectiveness. For example, comparing the costs and patient outcomes of different medical diagnostic machines. While one machine costs less per diagnosis, a more expensive machine could diagnose many more patients. CEA is applied in the document to compare costs and outcomes of different wound care and antenatal visit approaches. CEA seeks the best alternative to minimize resource use and achieve desired results.
The Price is Right: 12 products and how their prices have changed over the la...Palo Alto Software
This look back through history proves that the price of products is never set in stone. From electronics to food and appliances, very few products have remained in the same price range when compared to their original counterparts.
The nursing shortage is due to an aging nursing workforce, difficulties retaining and recruiting nurses, and nurses leaving for higher-paying jobs. Nursing education must change its curriculum to prepare nurses for today's specialized healthcare needs. Nursing practice is becoming more business-oriented, so understanding its effects on nursing is important. There is an inadequate number of nurse leaders, and nurses should control their own profession and practice. Poor working conditions, low pay, lack of autonomy, and limited career development are ongoing issues facing nurses.

Modernize the Orthopaedic Supply Chain: A Surgeon’s ViewApril Bright
This document discusses modernizing the orthopedic supply chain from a surgeon's perspective. It describes current issues with the supply chain that can lead to medical errors and waste, including complex compatibility rules between implant systems, small labels, and time pressure in the operating room. The author outlines a new system called OrthoSecure that uses barcodes and electronic displays to efficiently check implant compatibility and prevent errors. A study found this system prevented all errors in over 4,600 joint replacements and reduced wasted implants. The document advocates expanding this approach and using supply chain data to further increase efficiency and cost savings.
