A pseudo conflict due to false assumptions is when someone assumes someone is doing something instead of other options. 2. Fact conflicts: Fact conflicts are disagreements between individuals that can be verified by facts. Fact conflicts for example would be which quarterback has the most passing yards, which car has the best gas mileage, or who has the best batting average in the MLB.

...1 1. Introduction 1.1. Bloody Sunday Sunday the 27th of January 1972 became known as the Bloody Sunday. This Sunday represents a very important point in the history of the partition of Ireland and the relationship between England and Northern Ireland. 14 people had been shot and another 13 wounded by British soldiers during a protest in the northern Irish city Derry for civil rights and against the British occupation policy on this very Sunday. The Events that took place on Bloody Sunday had been the initial phase for the conflict in Northern Ireland to escalate. As a result, the conflict got worse. Shortly after the declaration of the happenings in Derry, an enraged crowd of northern Irish citizens occupied the British Embassy in Dublin and burned it down. To simplify the enormous amount of the subject matter “Ireland”, in the following lesson, there is going to be a didactical cutback. To begin with, the students are supposed to get to know some basic facts about the divided Ireland. In this one lesson, it is not about representing the topic in all of its details. To a greater degree, it is about approaching the topic particularly with regard to war and peace. The children shall know, what happened on Bloody Sunday and they should be able to classify the events into the historical-cultural background.1 1.2. The Song “Sunday, Bloody Sunday by U2” One of the most famous Bands in the World, U2, was founded in 1983. The Single “Sunday, Bloody Sunday” is the reason for the...

...Lstclair@bryant.edu Copyright © 2011 Competing Values Competency Questionnaire The Competing Values Competency Questionnaire is a tool to help you assess your development as a managerial leader with respect to the four quadrants of the competing values framework.* This questionnaire consists of 100 questions related to skills that managerial leaders need to meet the challenges of complexity, ambiguity, and paradox that characterize the world today. For each item, indicate how often you have successfully engaged in the activity. Rate yourself on the following 7 point scale: Never | Very Seldom | Seldom | Occasionally | Frequently | Very Frequently | Almost Always | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | It is important to note that this questionnaire is not designed to provide a final evaluation of your ability as a managerial leader. It is designed to provide a “snap-shot” profile, based on your current experience, strengths, and weaknesses. You then can use the profile to create a personal development plan based on your individual needs and interests. Some items refer to general activities that you may do regularly, such as recognizing people’s feelings. Others items refer to more specific activities and tools that you may not have had any experience with yet, such as coaching people on career issues or preparing a Gantt chart. If you have not had a chance to engage in the activity specified or are unfamiliar with the tool or technique mentioned...

Part 1: The Five Conflict Types Describe each of the five conflict types using paragraph form. 1. Pseudo conflicts: Pseudo conflicts are situations that aren’t perceived as such, but are the primary result between two different causes. The first cause can result from faulty assumptions where the individual makes their own assumptions without taking the necessary time to evaluate the situation at hand. The second cause results from false dilemmas where both individuals involved have determined only two solutions to a certain outcome towards that particular situation, but choose the option of discussing any and all positive outlets. Pseudo conflicts may seem to be unimportant, but can actually take a turn for the worse where no resolutions have been created. 2. Fact conflicts: Fact conflicts come into play when you have individuals who are in a disagreement regarding information that can be verified when the necessary time is taken to gather the facts needed. Even though an individual may believe the ideas of thoughts are valid may not be the truth, it’s almost as though they believe their assumptions or their observations are more accurate than what happened. 3. Ego conflicts: ego conflict if not taken care of in an...

...FORM 5 Novels The Curse Table of Contents Introduction Synopsis Elements Activities Assessment Answer Key Glossary Panel of writers THE CURSE NOVEL What is a novel? Only in a novel are all things given full play – D. H. Lawrence (( A novel is a long narrative in literary prose. Novels tell stories, which are typically defined as a series of events described in a sequence. The novel has been a part of human culture for over a thousand years, although its origins are somewhat debated. Regardless of how it began, the novel has risen to prominence and remained one of the most popular and treasured examples of human culture and writing. There have been stories and tales for thousands of years, but novels must combine a few unique characteristics in order to be defined as such. First, a novel is written down, rather than told through an oral account. Secondly, novels are meant to be fictional in form, differentiating them from myths, which are said to have their basis in reality or theology. Although some modern scholars argue differently, there is no truly established guideline for length, point-of-view, or even establishment of a moral or philosophical point in novels.

...f Associate Level Material Conflicts Are Important Worksheet In this assignment, you must write 300 to 450 words on conflict and conflict management. Record your answers in this worksheet. Part 1: The Five Conflict Types Describe each of the five conflict types using paragraph form. Conflict is important and it is also important to recognize the different types of conflicts that you may be involved with. By knowing this, you can recognize the state of mind you’re in and if possible avoid it. Pseudo conflicts are one of the five different types. These are not real conflicts, they are only perceived as conflicts. Pseudo conflicts can result from two causes: faulty assumptions and false dilemmas. Mistaking assumptions for facts may explain many pseudo conflicts. Pseudo conflicts that result from false dilemmas occur when the parties involved see only two choices as solutions to a problem. Another is Fact conflicts. These kinds of conflicts are at hand when individuals disagree about information that could easily be verified whether by statics or some other resource. Ego conflicts occur when a dispute centers on status or power. This reminds of two of my cousins when they let their egos get in the way of them winning their athletic competitions. Even though it was obvious that Steve was more of an athletic guy than Mark, Mark always felt like he had something to prove. Instead of them continuing to be on the same time for these competitions, Mark felt as though...

Describe team members’ results on the Discovery Wheel and develop your multiple intelligences exercises. What similarities and differences exist within the team? Along with some of the other members on the team, I also have to learn how to manage my time better. Working full time and being enlisted in the Army Reserves makes getting schoolwork done a very difficult task. I also find that I tend to procrastinate at times. 2. What are the advantages of having diversity on a team? What challenges might the team face because of diversity? Diversity comes from the word diverse meaning different. Diversity is the difference in ideas, morals, cultures, lifestyles and goals. It is important because it helps us to identify the differences between us and to embrace them. Diversity is important because it can enhance the organization's responsiveness to a diverse world of customers, which can improve relations with the surrounding community and increase the organization's ability to cope with change, and expand the creativity of the organization. Diversity within a group can be an important advantage when it comes to getting things done. Within a group, there will always be people who are stronger in certain areas and weaker in other areas. Having a diverse group limits the areas of...

Part 1: The Five Conflict Types Describe each of the five conflict types using paragraph form. 1. Pseudo conflicts: Psueudo conflicts, are conflicts that are not real, but they are only perceived as real conflicts. Pseudo conflicts can result from two causes: faulty assumptions, and false dilemmas. A faulty assumption would be asking one of your dental assistants to stay behind, after office hours to help sterilize instruments. You notice that the dental assistant is leaving the office, and you assume that they are leaving so that they do not have to process instruments. Although your assumption may be right, maybe they left to the central supply department to pick up sterile equipment. This assumption is a set-up for a pseudo conflict; you have made an assumption into a fact. Pseudo conflicts that result from false dilemmas occur when the parties involved see only two choices as solutions to a problem. For example, if you were invited to a party on a Friday night, but Saturday morning you have a schedule work day; you see that there are only two choices. You can either attend the part and call out of work, or not attend the party and disappoint family and friends. In reality, you can leave the party at a reasonable hour and leave early. This will give you quality...
