...Professional Standards IT/237 May 23, 2014 Professional Standards How Tags are Used to Promote Accessibility and SEO The tags that are used to promote accessibility and search engine optimization are called tags. These tags are not displayed on what the browser renders for the web page, however, they do provide valuable information for the browser and search engines. Over time search engine optimization, or SEO, techniques have changed. In the early days of the Internet keyword meta tags were extremely important for search engines to find a site of a specific topic for the end user. However the keyword meta tags were soon exploited by developers and designers by doing something called “keyword stuffing.” Keyword stuffing is when keywords are inserted to the meta tag that are not relevant to the site. For example a search conducted for the keyword ‘bakery’ may turn up results for bakeries, butchers, and other sites that are not related to bakeries. Another form of keyword stuffing is repeating keywords to artificially inflate the page ranking. As search engines have developed the keyword tag is less critical for producing high search result rankings; in fact Google completely disregards the contents of the keyword tag when performing its indexing. The title and description tags also play a role in SEO however not all search engines support the description tag. Robot meta tags tell search engines while crawling and indexing. The default...

...Professional Standards Avery Magee IT/237 09/16/2011 Vickie Bailey tags tags, are the information inserted into the “head” part of the web page right after the “title” tag is inserted giving the page a title. The meta description tag allows you to influence the description of your page in the crawlers that support the tag. In the beginning I was under the impression that when I typed in a description for the meta tag that was what would be displayed on a search engine to summarize my site. After a little research it turns out that searches like Google will actually ignore the tag altogether (in some cases) and generate their own description for the site. Other search engines that are configured to use meta tags will pull the full or part description from the tag to display for users. Searchenginewatch.com said,” In review, it is worthwhile to use the meta description tag for your pages, because it gives you some degree of control with various crawlers. An easy way to do this often is to take the first sentence or two of body copy from your web page and use that for the meta description content.” The meta keywords tag is also addressed in the information I found as a rarely used thing of the past. The article on meta tags at Http://searchenginewatch.com considers these tags useful for the few crawlers out there that may actually still use the meta tag but very few do anymore. This particular tag is good for adding keywords to a search or generating...

...Courtroom Participants’ Professional Standards In order for the legal system of the United States to work as intended by the constitution, it is vital for all participants of the legal system to their jobs in accordance with the law. From the bottom up, the police officers making arrests should not violate the rights of an individual or take law into their own hands. Any misconduct by the police will cause the public to loose trust in them. Then the prosecutors and defense attorneys must work in accordance with the law and make sure a defendant is given all the rights under the law and should not do anything to violate the rights of the individual. At the judicial level, the judges must keep personal feeling out of the courts and avoid any misconduct that might cause a reversal of the charges in appeal or cause the public to question and doubt the justice system. * * A man named Michael Wayne Hash was the victim of a prosecutorial misconduct case back in 2001.

...Historically very few professions were given the status of being a professional. Those who were in the profession of law and medicine were perceived to be ‘elite’, receiving professional status. This was given due to the structure and depth of their specialised training and high level qualification. The knowledge gained and the ethical standards of those professionals in their practice. They were governed by professional bodies, adhering to high values and having professional autonomy. These professionals were held in high esteem by society as possessing specialised knowledge and skills, who were equipped to apply this knowledge and implement their skills in the interest of others. The concept of professionalism and having status of being a professional within the early year’s workforce has been a contentious issue. Early year workers were one of the many professions not recognised by society as being professional. Some say it is due to the lack of value society in general placed on the quality and standard of qualification they held in comparison to that of other professions working within early year’s settings; such as teachers or speech and language therapists who held degree led qualifications. Early year workers skills and knowledge were also undervalued which reflected in lower levels of pay with no prospect of moving up the career ladder.
