...As teachers we need to make sure that our sessions are kept interesting, this will help keep the learners engaged and motivated, ensuring they come back wanting to learn more. Being passionate about your subject and taking pride when teaching will help you convey how you expect your learners to behave in sessions. If you always turn up on time, being prepared for your lessons, looking smart then this will have a positive effect on your learners helping you to gain their respect. However, none of this is any good if learning isn’t taking place. A good way to help you know if learning is taking place is by doing regular assessments. By adapting our teaching, we can ensure that all our learners needs are met, carrying out assessments as we go and changing our methods to suit everyone.

...of many things than any manufacturing company will have to worry about is the possibility of producing defective products. If a company finds out that there have been defective products that have been produced and put out into the market it would be in their best interests for the company itself to find out first instead of their consumers. When consumers are the ones to notice first about the defective products, it can make news and the trust and credibility of the company can or will be lost. A few prime examples were when Firestone made headlines about producing defective tires and Toyota made headlines about their vehicles having a bad brake system. The last example would be Microsoft when it came down to their production of Xbox 360s, but is a little different compared to the first two because they knew they were defective but put it out into the market anyway which cost them a loss and millions in profit and is still making it up to this day. Although Microsoft has done everything they could possibly do in order to rectify their consumers of these defective consoles, it has in fact taken them years in order to once again gain their consumers trust. In this paper I am about to attend a meeting with the new CEO and other executives and will like to share my knowledge of the potential of defective products being sold. Although I am not sure if the others are aware of this issue knowing that the defective products could possibly lead to serious issues I will try to effectively...

...Management 401 April 5, 2012 Term Paper Motivation: A Key to Success I currently work for a ministry in Homewood called Scott Dawson Evangelistic Association. It is a ministry that has been around for 25 years now. Scott Dawson is the founder of the association and is my current boss. He is great at building a compatible team and has mastered the responsibilities of being a CEO of his company. I have asked him some questions about motivation and how he over the years has kept his employees motivated. I have worked with Scott Dawson for almost a year now and he does a great job of keeping our team motivated, and is constantly encouraging us. I have been working for Scott since this past summer when I interned and I have experienced countless occasions where Scott has motivated me. How does Scott Dawson keep his team motivated and successful? Before I go any further, I want to discuss motivation and what is. What is motivation? Greenberg states, “Motivation is defined as the process of arousing, directing, and maintaining behavior toward a goal (Greenberg 162).” There are three main components of motivation: arousal, direction, and maintenance. When each of these components has been met, one will experience motivation. How do you motivate someone to work? Greenberg says, “There are ten major factors that motivate people to work, these include (from most motivating to least motivating): 1). Challenging projects, 2). Team spirit, 3). Getting paid, 4).

...teaching experience. By creating this professional development plan I will be able to apply what I have learned in this class to my professional career. Here I will discuss my professional development plans to ensure that all students have a clear understanding that having an education is important and can lead to much success in their future. When many hear professional development plan, they automatically think anything that goes along with work. They will never think that their opinion or thought has anything to do with their professional development plan. Only the individual can assess their own professional development plan and know what areas they need improvement on. Professional development plans can also be tweaked a little bit when assessing it and seeing what areas needs improvement on. In the next five years I plan on completing my Associates degree in elementary education and possibly pursuing my Bachelors. I also plan to continue to work in the position that I currently hold if not assistant, then lead teacher. I also plan to explore to find out what needs to be done for me to possibly begin my own school or some sort of child care facility. Within the next ten years or more I plan to have all of my five year goals accomplished as well as work on my Masters in elementary education. I will also consider working towards my Doctorates degree in education. Once obtaining all of these, I plan to obtain an administrative position in the process of working towards...

...Developing Your Assertiveness Some people are naturally more assertive than others. If your disposition tends more towards being either passive or aggressive, you need to work on the following skills to develop your assertiveness. Value yourself and your rights: * Understand that your rights, thoughts, feelings, needs and desires are just as important as everyone else's. * But remember they are not more important than anyone else's, either. * Recognise your rights and protect them. * Believe you deserve to be treated with respect and dignity at all times. * Stop apologizing for everything. Identify your needs and wants, and ask for them to be satisfied: * Don't wait for someone to recognize what you need (you might wait forever!) * Understand that to perform to your full potential, your needs must be met. * Find ways to get your needs met without sacrificing others' needs in the process. Acknowledge that people are responsible for their own behaviour: * Don't make the mistake of accepting responsibility for the how people react to your assertive statements (e.g. anger, resentment). You can only control yourself. * As long as you are not violating someone else's needs, then you have the right to say or do what you want. Express negative thoughts and feelings in a healthy and positive manner: * Allow yourself to be angry, but always be respectful. * Do say what's on your mind, but do it in a way that protects the other person's...

...First aid: I would firstly make sure tommy has enough space and make sure the other children are moved away as they could also get injured. I also need to call for help as someone else should be there to supervise me, or help me. The teacher in charge of the class will also be asked if she has any idea what the chemicals are as they have been kept in an unlabelled bottle. I would then follow the acronym DRAB Danger: look around to see if there is any danger around, As the child is sat in a puddle of chemicals there is danger around there fore if the child is able to I would get him to walk away from the puddle into a clear area, however if he is either unable or refusing to move I would have to place obstructions over the chemicals so I could stand on top of them enabling me to get to Tommy. Response: The best way to get a response is to simply talk to Tommy, however as he is crying it will be difficult for him to communicate with me, Although the fact that he is crying can be seen as a good thing as it shows that he’s not unconscious. If tommy were to be unconscious or unresponsive whilst talking would be to pinch his ear to see if he squirms. Airways: As Tommy is conscious I will not need to worry too much about airways, as he is able to talk and cry. I also need to try and figure out whether he is likely to be sick as this could block his airways. The best way to do this is to just try and calm him down, or stop him crying so that he can talk to me, the best way of...

The aorta is opened longitudinally and the interior examined for atherosclerosis, other pathologies and any medical devices.

...on the individual needs of the service user, colleague and visitors. The ways in which we communicate will need to be adapted on not just the individual needs, but also on the surrounding setting, whether this being a Maternity ward, Dentist, Youth Centre and Care home. The way we communicate may also vary dependent on how many people we are communicating with, which could be an individual which will require a much more specific way and a group which will need a much broader range if ways to communicate following the idea of “one size to fit all”. One-to-one An example of a one to one interaction was when I was at my placement, communicating with a young person who was new to the youth centre. Due to the loud noise surrounding us in the main room I gave them a brief tour around the centre and finishing off in the TV room which was quieter and only had 2 other young people in it. I did this due to the need to be able to clearly talk and listen once finishing the talk if they had any questions without any background noise causing a barrier or other distractions. To achieve this I took them on the tour and deliberately ended in the quieter room without putting any pressure on the young person causing them to shy away or become distracted by any other background noise. Due to the young person being new they had to fill in a consent form, in which it allows us to identify the needs of the young person and if they require any further assistance or specific need to provide them with...

...Ellen McReynolds Strayer University Employment At-Will Doctrine As the newly appointed Chief Operating Officer for my company, a number of employment problems have come to my attention. I have determined that action needs to be taken in each of these instances, but keeping in mind that our company will soon be going public, I need to ensure that any actions are above question. Texas is an At-Will employment state and since our company is located in Texas, this should make my job a bit easier, if I do need to terminate the employment of anyone. At-Will employment gives the employer or the employee the right to terminate the employment relation at any time. Dismissal does not have to be for cause, but I will need to be sure in each case that the situation does not fall into an exception to “At-Will”. The major exceptions are public policy and implied contract. There is also the exception of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing (NCLS, nd, a, Seg. 1), this last exception is not recognized in Texas(NCLS, nd, b). What exactly do these exceptions mean? Public policy basically protects employees from the actions of an employer that violate public interest. Examples would be as follow: Employees can’t be dismissed based on race, religion, age or gender or any other characteristic that falls within the civil rights purview. They must be allowed to fulfill their civic responsibility of jury duty or being a member of the National Guard or reserve. Employees...

Professional Role Development My understanding of the nursing practice is more focused on my patients’ safety and doing what is most beneficial to my patient. It is necessary to explore our own personal values deep within ourselves and realize principles that will guide our nursing practice. My philosophy of nursing joins the knowledge of nursing practice with spiritual, interpersonal, and compassionate care which takes into consideration each patients individual dignity. Spirituality is a concern in how we define ourselves as individuals and seek meaning and purpose in this life. It influences how we deal with obstacles and how we relate not only to ourselves, but also to others. Nursing is more than what people just assume, it is more than administering medications; rather...

...is that Leadership always involves people, whereas Management can just involve items such as stock or IT. Therefore Leadership is the responsibility for and the leading of people. It also includes the management of the team which can ideally be delegated to team members to help them develop and boost their motivation and morale. There are numerous categories of leadership style proposed by different theorists – Bureaucratic, Charismatic, Servant, Transactional, Transformational, Situational, Behavioural, Functional and more In the 1930s, the psychologist Kurt Lewin proposed that there are three types of leaders: Autocratic leaders make decisions without consulting their teams. This may be appropriate when decisions need to be made quickly, when there's no need for team input or if team agreement isn't necessary for a successful outcome. This style can be demoralizing and lead to high staff absenteeism/turnover. Democratic leaders allow the team to provide input before a final decision is made. This style can be difficult to manage when there are lots of different perspectives and ideas and is not effective if a quick decision is required. It does encourage team engagement leading to improved job satisfaction and productivity. Laissez-faire leaders allow freedom for people within the team to make decisions such as how they work and the deadlines they work to, with the leader providing support if needed. This behaviour can arise because the leader doesn’t have control of the...
