...University of Western Ontario and University of Delaware Chri 2. Introduction The article is about presenting an integrated model about employees' commitment and motivation. According to the article, commitment and motivation are distinguishable, albeit related, concepts. More specifically, it suggest that commitment is one component of motivation and, by integrating theories of commitment and motivation, it gain a better understanding of the two processes themselves and of workplace behavior. This article is conceptual based which is largely based on presenting the reasoning of different theories. Employee Commitment and Motivation: A Conceptual Analysis and Integrative Model uses various theories about motivation and commitment. 3. Brief Summary This article tried to assert commitment is one part of motivation and, by integrating theories of commitment and motivation, For example, because commitment often involves psychological attachment to social foci, incorporating commitment as an independent aspect of motivation should allow enhanced understanding of behaviors that have broader social implications. The article begin its attempt at integration by providing a broad overview of theory and research pertaining to workplace motivation and commitment. Both are complex concepts, and therefore a comprehensive analysis is beyond the scope of the article. Specifically, the article incorporated theory and research on work motivation into a general model of the motivation...

...Should There Be Specific Anti-Gay Bully Polices in Schools First let’s be clear about definitions concerning this essay. Bully: One who is habitually cruel to smaller or weaker people (The American Heritage Dictionary 2007). An aggressive person who intimidates or mistreats weaker people, (Encarta dictionary, 2012). Bullying: The process of intimidating or mistreating somebody weaker or in a more vulnerable situation (Encarta dictionary, 2012). Bullying for this paper: Any act of harassment, intimidation, whether physical, verbal or telecommunicated (cyber/text) that makes a person feel demeaned, belittled, fearful, or endangered. Since doing this research I find that each article defines bullying in a different way. I believe that we need to have a definitive explanation of what we consider bullying on the whole. Although every definition centers on the idea that someone is being mistreated in some way by another person. Why is it surprising that we have children lashing out to the children that have bullied them today when this is what Americans have done since this country began? The Europeans came to this country and started to take over the land. The Native Americans very rarely killed one another, they simply counted coup. As the Europeans continued to move away from the east coast they decided that the way the Native Americans were living was barbaric and they needed to be civilized and Christianized. When the Native Americans refused to conform, the...

...to Write an Article Review An article review is both a summary and an evaluation of another writer's article. Teachers often assign article reviews to introduce students to the work of experts in the field. Experts also are often asked to review the work of other professionals. Understanding the main points and arguments of the article is essential for an accurate summation. Logical evaluation of the article's main theme, supporting arguments and implications for further research is an important element of a review. Here are a few guidelines for writing an article review. Steps Sample Article Reviews Sample Newspaper Article Review Sample Research Article Review Writing Your Own Review 1 Read the article several times. Begin by looking quickly at the opening statements, headings and opening sentences of each paragraph and the conclusion. Then go back to the beginning and read the article in its entirety. Reading the article a third time with a highlighter or pen in hand allows for making notes or highlighting important sections. 2 Create a summary outline. This is an outline of the main points made in the article and the supporting research or arguments. It is strictly a restatement of the main points of the article and does not include your opinions. Review the summary outline to eliminate unnecessary items. Erase or cross out the less important arguments or supplemental information. 3 Write an outline of your opinions. Review each item in the summary outline to determine...

...WRITING A SUMMARY OF AN ARTICLE WHAT IS A SUMMARY? A summary restates the main ideas of an author in your own words. It keeps the essential information from the original passage while eliminating most supporting details, such as the examples and illustrations. A good summary makes the author's ideas clear, perhaps even clearer than in the original. What is the difference between an abridgement, a paraphrase, and a summary? An abridgement is a shortened form of a work that to a great extent keeps the language of the original. Although an editor has made decisions about which words or passages to delete, the article or book is presented as the work of the original author. A paraphrase differs from an abridgement in that it is written in language different from the original. It follows the order of the original text and, unlike a summary, it recasts everything, not just the main ideas. It may be shorter than the original, but it could...
