...Chapter 2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES This chapter represents the review on related literature and studies regarding topic about the students who plays MOBA games (Multiplayer Online Base Arena) and its effect to their study habits and time management. Studies on productivity provided ideas as to how to design our own study, while the studies on work breaks gave us an idea of how merely not working for a segment would affect our study. This would mean that we could have a clear idea of the effect of the games themselves rather than merely the break. Foreign Literature A paper made by Thomas M. Connollya, Elizabeth A.

...Running head: ACTION INQUIRY RESEARCH PAPER- MERIT PAY Action Inquiry Research Paper- School Finance Jennifer Ponton Grand Canyon EDA 535 July 01, 2012 Action Inquiry Research Paper- School Finance Statement of the Problem This past spring thousands of teachers protested at the Louisiana State Capital to prevent Louisiana lawmakers from passing an educational reform bill proposed by Governor Bobby Jindall that would change the face of public education in Louisiana forever. Many superintendents and school personnel were relieved of their professional responsibilities on the days they protested hoping that they could sway the governor and the lawmakers from passing the bill. The bill was passed even without the support of many educational leaders and lawmakers in Louisiana. The laws passed by Louisiana lawmakers read like a conservative education reformer’s wish list. Teacher tenure in Louisiana after three years of employment was eliminated and replaced with teachers receiving a “highly effective rating for five out of six consecutive years of teaching. Back to back “ineffective rating will result in a teacher being fired. Seniority will no longer be a dominant factor in layoff decisions. In fact most decisions involving teacher employment and pay will now be the responsibility of both the principal and the superintendent of school. Before Governor Jindall’s reform plan it was the responsibility of the local school board. The reform proposed by the governor...

...may say that the war on terror is causing these rising gas prices you pay at the pump. Others may blame the shortage of oil. Truth be told, the government plays a tremendous role in your gas prices in America. The following paragraphs will detail the exact affects government plays on rising gas prices. Furthermore, ideas on how Americans can help fix this trend of government controlled gas prices are discussed For the past decade gas prices have climbed steeply and the pain at the pump has been no different. For every penny increase at the pump, $1.4 billion per year leaves your collective pockets, creating a drag on the sluggish “recovery.” How does this continue to happen? Who controls this and why won’t they listen to your cries? Simply put it is your government. At one time in 1979 the U.S. government fixed the price of gasoline at about $1.00 per gallon (Rockoff, 2012). So why can they not do this again? Some of you may think that the oil prices which drives gas cost to raise is because of supply and demand. That is wrong! Stiff regulations from the government and shot down proposals are the reason why you pay more at the pump. Your government is working with financial institutes and the oil company passing economic policies that hinder you the gas payer, and helps the oil companies. This has been the case for the decade. Instead of lowering the portion of tax that is incorporated into the price you pay at the pump, the government is looking at raising the federal tax on...

These balancing factors vary in the proportion of the support they provide to their counterpart. In the very same context, ALLAH created man and woman as the supporting counterparts for each other.

Gender discrimination is something in which a woman is discriminated and given less rights and opportunities as compared to males. Importance of the study with respect to the world: Gender discrimination has been a problem not just in this era but since the beginning of humanity. It doesn’t matter that which part of the world we look at, we will always find that woman are at the disadvantage. The major drawback is that this problem has become so common that it is considered normal now and accepted as a part...

...Management of Information system This report aims at examining components, such as the content, organization, and grammar, constructed in one published research article studying security issues in mobile payment from customers’ viewpoint. This paper delivers a clever idea, the idea that the author focuses on studying security issues in mobile payment from perspective of customer even though the previous researchers addressed technical details of security from the perspective of merchants or the mobile payment service providers. Through the analysis of the paper, I have approached security issues in e-payment systems, which is the subject of my research paper, with another aspect, so that I could conduct my research paper to borrow the idea in security issues during the use of e-payment systems. I proceeded to analyze the selective article, following items, such information and language structures, provided by the Genre Analysis Checklist to collect evidence about the organizational and grammatical features employed in the article.
