...led approach was introduced. For this to work, joint working requires a multi-disciplinary team approach not just at the professional level but also at the management level. Clear delegation of responsibility for the delivery of different aspects of community care would prevent professional boundaries been broken and in return would improve co-ordination and relationships between the agencies that provide community care. Community Care Assessments/ Placements in appropriate setting would be able to be completed in time. This would prevent blocking of beds and allow the patient to be in their own home or a residential home setting. If a planned approach to the resourcing of community care was made. This would allow key decisions to be made and how future needs should be resourced. If there was more flexibility in budgets to facilitate greater innovation and creativity in response to need. There should be a degree of ring-faced especially for new finance with clear guidance to how it is spent.. There should be no permanent decisions made about a person's future care in an acute hospital setting. Assessments done in these settings can lead to the clients proper needs not been met and they could be placed in a unsuitable setting. If hospital staff had access to budgets for services for people with less complex needs, e.g., home helps ,this would not delay them in hospital and would free up beds so hospital duties could be carried...

...interaction plays an important role between these two class settings. Students in a traditional class setting have the abilit7y to listen to the instructor, talk about lessons, ask any questions that they may have, as well as take part and watch any demonstrations. In a traditional class, students are able to communicate with peers and professors before and after class, regarding any assignments, concerns, or grades. Online students typically communicate with instructors through emails or phone. Teachers may also be able to explain things better face to face, rather than through emails or over the phone. So students may not get the complete explanation this way. Also, in the case of any questions, the professor and peers won't be readily available to provide feedback on the spot, though effective professors will make themselves available through a variety of methods, which includes online office hours. Taking classes online typically allow students to work asynchronously, which means they can choose where and when they complete their coursework. This is often ideal for students who work or single parents who needs a flexible schedule. Online classes can also be a great approach to a college degree, for as long as a computer and internet access is available, course work can be accessed from anywhere (Sorensen,2007). Though, students who struggle to be self-motivated may find that they can quickly fall behind. Traditional class settings...

The reflective ground was like looking into a pool of rippling water, with every step it shook up the mirrored image of white clouds and blue sky that surrounded us. It bore such a close resemblance to what everyone describes heaven to be like. The only difference was this was ours for the taking. 2.) From my point of view the setting described allowed me to provide a more detailed and in depth description of the characters, as a picture is worth a thousand words – I was able to detail the thoughts, and feelings I saw fitting for each character. 1.) Character: Not caring about others opinions, the three friends had stopped acting as young adults and decided to let loose for a while. Smiling laughing and having the time of their life they all got lost in the moment, never knowing what was going to happen next whether it was a day, week, or even five minutes it didn’t matter. All that mattered was the joy they felt for the time being. Setting: It was almost too bright out as the sun’s rays beamed down on the concrete, the warm summer breeze compensated for the blistering heat. There wasn’t a cloud for miles and the streets normally busy with traffic were silent as if everyone else in the town had vanished. Everywhere you looked it was vacant, containing no signs of anything. 2.) In this images settings one would be able to explain what was happening more...

...Describe the importance of Sheila's role in the play An inspector calls. Extracts from this document... Introduction Describe the importance of Sheila's role in the play.-Michael Rowell At the beginning Sheila was not one of the main characters as Birling takes centre stage. Setting on the play seemed revolved around the characters. The older furniture in the living room matched the aging and upper class type that is Birling. During the play Sheila is the only concerned and totally serious character to the situation. There are some well linked scenes in the play setting a mood for Sheila with the marriage, her husband to be Gerald. The pink light in the house makes Shila feel more relaxed as the set looks almost like a love scene. During the play, Sheila is the main link between the Inspector and the Audience. She constantly changes and develops as the Story is told. ...read more. Middle This sudden chance in language implicates how her attitude in the play is changing to a more mean and ruthless in her anguish towards their casual behaviour. The Inspector is a Catalyst in the character and emotions of Sheila, on impact hitting the house hold with shame. She is the most interested of people asking everyone what exactly they did, just like a second inspector who wants to put together the whole picture for the audience. Other example of this role is like when she spoke to Gerald. "What about this girl?" Her role is to be the girl that needs to know everything and gets the...

...Online learning is better than a traditional classroom setting and is also convenient. I agree with this because I am doing online learning. I believe that it accommodates the busy lives people have these days. Whether its working or raising a family, its hard to get to a traditional class on time versus getting on your computer at midnight and doing your course work. Some people think that there is too much time being spent on electronics as it is due to the fact that it runs their lives. But without electronics, where would we be now? We couldn’t track space shuttles or satellites without the help of computers. Computers have come along way since the 50’s. They are more advanced than they were back then. Another good thing about online learning versus traditional classroom learning is that you can study at your own leisure and at your own pace. You can’t do that in a traditional classroom learning setting. People without hectic lives prefer the traditional classroom learning so they can get the help from the teacher on a one on one level and be able to turn in assignments to a person not through a computer. They prefer more structured settings and being able to ask for help from fellow students also on a one on one level. I’ve done both, and I prefer the online learning due to more time to do assignments at my own pace and I don’t feel rushed. I felt rushed in a classroom setting. With online learning, you don’t have to worry about carrying books from class...

...facilitator of my group, I was given feedback stating that I communicated “effectively,” had “meaningful ideas” and facilitated the group with a “great sense of direction.” I believe my strength of being able to communicate well with my team members is an asset that I can possess within a working environment. Communication is a strong suite because it allows a person to not only understand situations, but also keep others aware as well. Within our group setting, by sending out a group email on a weekly basis to make the team aware of where we stand and what we have to do next, I was able to not only confirm for myself the timeline and goals we had to abide by, but also keep the team members on the same page as me. This act of communication would be tremendously helpful in a working environment because it shows a sense of direction, organizational skills, commitment to the group, and also participation within a team setting. Since in a working environment a person needs to be aware of a multitude of group settings (management team, co-workers, employees of other departments, associated agencies/clients of the company, etc.), facilitating communication is important for the completion of goals and tasks. Therefore, having the ability to properly and effectively communicate is a skill set that can be utilized in many areas of the work atmosphere, especially when working with other team members in order to keep focused on goals and keeping everyone on the same page.

...Process Reflection Week 2 Maria Rodriguez Educational Administration Foundation and Framework August 1, 2013 Collaboration assignments in the online classroom setting can be one of the hardest and most challenging tasks ever during the online experience. Online students don’t necessarily ever meet each other in person or online and communication can be very challenging. During this type of assignments students can lose touch and not have the ability to successfully communicate with each other. Communication plays a huge part when it comes to online settings. If there isn’t enough streaming communication the ability for all students to participate get hindered and collaboration is not reached successfully. During this task, it was found that everyone’s personal schedule and availability interfered with the task. Students found themselves online and available to work at different times of the day, which made communication hard. Students also faced the challenge of being able to fully participate in the assignment. When the assignment was first discussed not everyone was available and parts of the assignments where grabbed by those available, in turn some students didn’t do much. The students who did do parts of the assignments did a wonderful job, but this beats the purpose of a collaborative assignment. More open communication and availability is needs to be achieved and some type of instant chat or message board needs to be used. Students should all be available...

...prejudices since that time. Many argue that one of the major reasons for the ultimate failure was due to the over emphasis on competitiveness at the expense of interdependence in the classroom setting (Aronson & Bridgeman, 2011, p. 425). In turn, the typical student in a classroom today rarely strives to cooperate with others in pursuit of common goals. This article explains Aronson and Bridgeman describe a program designed for elementary school students forced to spend part of their time in the classroom mastering material in an interdependent structure. The findings showed that this structured interdependence increased the overall self-esteem, the morale and the interpersonal attractions as well as the empathy of students across ethnic and racial divisions (Aronson & Bridgeman, 2011, p. 434). Their program also improved the academic performance of minority students without altering the performance of the ethnic minority (Aronson & Bridgeman, 2011, p. 434). Initially I found the article to be frustrating due to the fact that their research was based from 25 years ago, however after reading the entire study I enjoyed the outcomes. I would have never thought to implicate this program in the first place but I am glad someone finally thought of it. I haven’t been in a classroom setting for several years but I vividly remember being forced to work on group projects and hating every second of...

...and Character will lead the reader, and viewer, to have a greater insight into the theatrical Practices of their times and their approaches to the issue of verisimilitude. The theatrical presentation of both plays are very similar. The two plays would Both be presented on a thrust stage, which is a platform surrounded on three sides by The audience. Except for the backdrop which would have some element of scenery, The stage itself would be bare apart from a few scenic elements and props. Othello, Like most of Shakespeare's plays, had what is called an abstract setting. That is a Setting in which the locale may change rapidly, it may not be indicated by the script That it has changed, and was most likely suggested by a few props. Abstract settings Place more emphasis on the language and the performer, which causes the spectator To use their imagination. It also places more emphasis on costuming. This type of 6 6 Setting helped set up the style of representational theater, which places high emphasis On the realistic. The style used in classical Greece was presentational which, because Of the use of the mask, gave no illusion that this story is happening before their eyes. The audience is reminded that they are watching a play, and not merely observing Life. Thus, the use of the thrust stage is the only similarity of the two types of Presentation....

...younger our goals were definitely not as specific as they were when we got older. At the time I thought my parents making us do this was dumb and ridiculous but as I got older I realized what a blessing it was, and how much it truly did help in our family life, and personal life. Since I’ve had to set goals my entire life I have learned that by doing this it makes projects, assignments, daily life, etc. a lot less stressful because I know what I want to achieve, how I’m going to do it, and by when I will accomplish these goals. Goal setting is also psychologically healthy. It helps you feel more purposeful, and that can stave off a sense of stagnation and mental health issues like depression (http://vizedhtmlcontent.next.ecollege.com/pub/content/9ab3605a-5a33-4b14-8048-143db6e60251/Setting_SMART_goals.pdf).

...Continuing Academic Success Sheri Coleman GEN/201 August 18, 2014 Lindsey Rudolph, Professor Continuing Academic Success According to Curran and Reivich (2011) “How does goal setting increase performance, achievement, and ultimately well-being” (p. 44)? In my opinion, academic success should be included in one’s model for achieving one’s career goals. While some believe continuing academic success is not required to obtain one's ultimate career goal, academic success is achieved by setting goals, fusing one’s learning style with lessons being taught, applying critical thinking skills and utilizing all available resources. During this first course of continuing my education, I’ve learned the tools necessary to become academically successful as well starting on the path to a successful career. Goal Setting Setting goals, leads to success because there’s a plan being put into motion. According to Lock & Latham 2002, “Research indicates that when an individual sets a goal that individual shows increased direct physical effort, cognitive effort on repeated task, self-reported subjective effort, and physiological indicators of effort” (p.44). Choosing the online course to continue my education allows me to move at my own pace. Setting goals is directive; goals reveal the path in which I need to follow. All of these actions lead to positive outcomes. (Curran & Reivich 2011, Lock & Latham 2002, Locke & Bryan 1969). Smaller and easier to attain...
