...HSM/270 Dakira Starks-Walker Scenario Evaluation Plan Evaluation is one of the most important steps in the development and implementation of any program or project. As imperative as it is to lay a solid foundation through mission, goals, and objectives, it is equally as important to have a way to define success or failure through use of appropriate tools, accurate reporting, and proper evaluation techniques. Deciding whether to use a process evaluation format or outcome evaluation can be challenging, but often a coordinated system is most telling. The main objective of any evaluation technique is to provide the state of the agency and how well or poorly their programs are working, what may need to be changed, and how well they continue to meet their mission, goals and objectives. The PEACE Domestic Violence is an organization to reduce victim trauma, empower survivors, and promote recovery through direct services. PEACE is committed to reducing the incidence of sexual assault and domestic violence through education and strives to challenge societal norms and beliefs that condone and perpetuate violence in the community. The mission, goals, and objectives that are presented in the scenario are fairly generalized. Without an adequate, detailed description of how the program will be administrated and implemented, it is nearly impossible to perform a process evaluation. Process evaluations serve to collect the information from the program which provides the basis for outcome...

Türkiye’deki geleneksel teori ağırlıklı ve uzun süreli olan polis eğitimine karşın ngiltere ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde polis eğitiminin daha kısa ve uygulama merkezli olduğu göze çarpmaktadır.

...Ousman P.V. Jassey Professor Frink English 112 10 April 2009 Should Abortion be banned? Abortion is one of the most controversial issues in our societies and politics today. Since 1973, when the Supreme Court of the United States of America legalized abortion in its landmark Roe vs Wade decision, the opposing groups of abortion have sought to increase or restrict access to abortion, leading to intense debates among pro-life and pro-choice political leaders and activists both at state and federal governments levels and as well as religious organizations. The abortion debate is often considered a two-sided controversy; however, the issue involves questions about biology, morality and religion and legal rights. For example, people who consider themselves as pro-life activists argue that abortion destroys human life, which they believe begins at conception. As a result, the pro-life activists regarded abortion as immoral and should be illegal and abandoned. Some of the moderate pro-life advocates allow exceptions in the cases of rapes, incest, or if mother’s health is at risk. People who identify themselves as pro-choice activists contend that every woman has a right to make decision concerning her body and her future outweighs the right of the fetus. Some pro-choice supporters endorse restrictions on abortion, such as informed consent laws, which require that a woman receive state-authored literature on abortion before undergoing the procedure, and mandatory waiting...

The fees are unaffordable given the fact that the majority of students pay from their personal savings. Moreover, there is emerging competition from other programmes offered by Africa University while other universities in Zimbabwe are offering similar programmes at a lower cost. The participant also indicated that quality of service needs to be improved and formal advertising and marketing efforts made as many participants indicated that they got to know about the programmes through informal means such as from friends.

...“If there's one thing that's certain in business, it's uncertainty.” Stephen Covey. Uncertainty is the lack of information, which makes the probabilities of a defined outcome unknown. Unfortunately, running a business primarily depends on planning for a set of known outcomes. Businesses gather available present and past information to formulate a futuristic prediction. However, predictions, no matter how well-considered they are, cannot account for all variables in business. Therefore, businesses generate a set of probabilities for variable future changes and make decisions based on those probabilities. This is known as risk management. There are a lot of sources of uncertainty such as governmental regulations, disasters affecting markets, or even scientific and technological discoveries that change supply or demand. These uncertainties represent great obstacles for businesses because they might lead to poor decisions, which may result in great losses. Managing uncertain changes is tricky. When uncertainty builds, businesses must learn to adapt; otherwise they will sink. In the following paragraphs we discuss two instances where businesses have been affected by outside factors, which have created uncertainty, and how those companies adapted to continue doing business in uncertain times. One of our team members works in the insurance industry at Campus Benefits, a private broker working in the educational market. In 2010, the 111th Congress passed healthcare legislation, the...

...e- Portfolio For decades, students have been completing assignments in school. Often, these were seen only by the teacher, graded and returned to the student. Sometimes, the work was posted on a classroom wall or in a school hallway. Many teachers kept portfolios of student work for report card conferences, and the rare teacher taught students how to build their own portfolios from their work. With more and more schools going paperless or migrating to the "cloud", student work has become more easily shareable, accessible by many, and more easily organized. Many teachers have turned to digital portfolios -- or "e-portfolios" -- for their students. These digital portfolios have caused a huge shift in how teachers assign, collect and assess student...

...Running head: ISLAM : GLOBAL CONCEPT AND PRACTICES 1 Islam : Global Concept and Practices DeVry University Sociology – 350N – Cultural Diversity in Professions Spring Semester 2013 Introduction The history of Islam, its’ concepts and practices is one of the most intriguing yet controversial religions known today. Worldwide, Muslims make up about 23.4 percent of the population, while Christianity makes up about 30 percent (Goodstein, 2011). A study published in 2009 by the Pew Research Center to get global concept of the Muslim population found, “Of the 232 countries and territories included in this study, 50 are Muslim-majority” (p. 5). The Center also found “While 80% of the world’s Muslims live in countries where Muslims are in the majority, significant numbers – about one-fifth of the world’s Muslim population – live as religious minorities in their home countries” (p. 7). With so many countries adhering to Islam and the growth of the Muslim population here in America and worldwide; how will this affect how non-Islamic countries communicate and interact with Islamic countries and how we communicate right here in the United States? If Muslim fundamentalists were not at the forefront of controversy in the war on terrorism, would Islam be a religion that sparks so much debate? Even before September 11th, there had been much controversy related to Islam. However most of it occurred on foreign soil. With significant bombings and terrorist attacks in Europe...
