This program will also bring business to the vendors that will be working along with Kudler Fine Foods to provide the loyalty rewards. Testing Process: Testing occurs at every stage of the project before moving on to the next stage. This ensures compatibility within the system as it progresses. Testing’s ultimate goal is to validate that the system meets the requirements of the stakeholders (Valacich, George, & Hoffer, 2012) and is a deliverable with its own plan and what managers are trying to accomplish. According to Rehman Zafar (2013) testing process falls in the following types: “unit testing, integration tests, functional testing, system testing, stress testing, performance testing, usability testing, acceptance testing, regression testing, and beta test” (Para. 5).

...impact nursing and its future by transforming its education, practice and our role as a leader. The impact on nursing education: Our patients are depending on us for quality care, believing that we are qualified enough and have a better understanding of what we do for them. This is why progressively acquiring knowledge through research, education and evidence-based practice is important to the profession. According to the report, “the primary goals of nursing education remain the same: nurses must be prepared to meet diverse patient’s needs, function as leaders and advance science that benefits patients and the capacity of health professionals to deliver safe and quality patient care”. Science and technology are advancing daily not only in healthcare but in all profession, that is why nurses must not settle for mediocrity, we are to advance from ADN to BSN to MSN and ultimately a doctoral degree if possible, this will help advance research to better care for our patients. Education is knowledge and knowledge is power. Being educated enhances competency, promotes confidence and better professionalism. According to the IOM report most physicians strongly agree that nurses should be educated to practice effectively even though they place a higher value on compassion, efficiency and experience. No matter what others value,...

...Q1. Distinguish between information technology (IT) and information systems (IS)? List four organization functions that can be served by IS. * Information Technology deals with the scheming, designing and development of system software whereas Information Systems involves the study of the components and resources required to deliver information and information processing functions within an organization. * Information Technology focuses on the existing and upcoming technology, which helps in disseminating information whereas Information Systems concentrate more on how the system make use of the technology. * Information system is a computer system that provides management and other personnel within an organization with up-to-date information regarding the organization's performance; for example, current inventory, Human Resource Management (HRM), and sales. It usually is linked to a computer network, which is created by joining different computers together in order to share data and resources. It is designed to capture, transmit, store, retrieve, manipulate, and or display information used in one or more business processes. These systems output information in a form that is useable at all levels of the organization: strategic, tactical, and operational.

Research and Development 5. Summary of data/conclusion 6. References COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY AND THE EFFECT ON THE BRAIN 2 Abstract Computer technology has been around in our lives for a few century’s changing our lives for better and worse. The first set of evidence of mechanical calculating appeared in the 17th century as well as the first recorded word of computer. What we know as our modern day computer was first introduced around the 19th century. Since then computer technology has been advancing every day, making past technology obsolete very quickly. Nowadays computer technology is part of most people’s life. In the 1960’s people on average would watch around 5 hours of media compared to today’s 12 hours (Wells, 2010). Yet with all of this advanced technology how is it affecting our brains and body? In this paper I will attempt to answer these questions. COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY AND THE EFFECT ON THE BRAIN 3 Computer technology is a part of many people’s lives in this modern age. Computers have made a big impact into our lives around the 19th century. Since then they have been advancing so quickly. Before they were thought of as...

...Evidence of Evolution Introduction: Evolution is usually defined as the change over time in one or more inherited traits found in populations of organisms. Inherited traits are particular distinguishing characteristics. Evolution may occur when there is variation of inherited traits within a population. The major sources of such variation are mutation, genetic recombination and gene flow. This process has produced all the diversity of living organisms. Charles Darwin characterized the result as endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful. It has always been debated if there is any evidence of evolution and in what fields, in this report we will give a brief summary concerning: • DNA Evidence of Evolution • Biological Evidence of Evolution DNA Evidence of Evolution: DNA molecules are complex molecules which contain the assembly instructions for every living creature. Certain aspects of DNA have been interpreted as evidence for Darwinian evolution. DNA evidence for evolution includes mutations, genetic similarities among species, so-called “Junk DNA” and “Pseudogenes.” The fact that mutations can corrupt DNA is important for the Darwinian paradigm because in order for an organism to eventually evolve into an entirely different organism, changes must be made to the creature’s genome over time. But Darwinian evolution needs more than just change. It needs an increase in genetic information. Critics point out that genetic mutation does not appear to provide a...

...Appreciate the risks and benefits associated with the Eurocurrency market, the global bond market, and the global equity markets. • Understand how foreign exchange risk impacts upon the cost of capital. This chapter discusses the form and function of the global capital market. The market is attractive because its size lowers the cost of capital for borrowers, and allows investors to diversify their portfolios, thereby reducing their risk. Advances in information technology, and the deregulation of financial services and the relaxation of regulations on cross-border capital flows have contributed to the growth of the global capital market. The chapter then goes on to explore the Eurocurrency market, the global bond market, and the international equities market. The opening case describes how ICBC, China’s largest bank, raised $21 billion in the international equities market. The closing case examines how China Mobile raised capital in international markets through a stock offering and a bond issue.

...Social Cognitive Theory Albert Bandura’s social cognitive theory is the framework for learning, based on the relationship between behavior, personal factors, and factors in the environment (Institute for Dynamic Educational Advance). Factors for social cognitive theory are based on a social or physical environment. Social environments encompass friends, colleagues, and family. Physical environments could run the gamut as vast as a particular food, securing a room size, room temperature, consideration of classroom setting, or an e-learning classroom online. The social cognitive theory explains the process functions of humans and aspects of emotional behaviors. In understanding these behaviors, the process of understanding behavioral change becomes clearer. According to Burney (2008), this cognitive process provides a backdrop for humans to observe their environment and others, using the information gathered to self-regulate their functions. Bandura introduced self-efficacy as the center of social cognitive theory. As one of the most studied topics in psychology, self-efficacy is one’s own belief in their outcome on succeeding in any given situation, based on a person’s belief system of thinking, feeling, and the person’s response or behavior (University of Twente, 2010). As populations have become more diverse, the global educational area has grown to encompass more students that are technology-rich (Gunter, 2007). As institutions of higher learning seek additional...
