Due to various children’s interests i.e. looking out the window at the different flowers, stories, songs and parent information (Parent had told us they had been out with their child doing the gardening); we decided to build on this, as Maria Montessori said that “the child can only be free when the adult becomes an acute observer. Any action of the adult that is not a response to the children’s observed behaviour and interests limit the child’s freedom”. Pound, L (2006) she believed children learned best through their senses and in an environment...

...is to lead and manage the planning, delivery, evaluation and improvement of the education of all students in a community through the strategic deployment of resources provided by the Department and the school community.

...Why is leadership so important today? Why Hong Kong people took to the streets to protest against government policy many times eg moral and national education curriculum, North East New Territories new development areas planning, etc? It is because of Hong Kong people don’t trust the government. I think Hong Kong now is crisis and high pressure situation. In times of crisis, strong leadership is the major factor in driving the changes that are needed to get us to a better day. Leadership is an influence that a person influences others to achieve a goal. So a good leader is important to organization because organization is easy to success. Good leadership involves finding ways to overcome the road block by identifying and resolving problems. There have two type leaders which is task and social-emotional leader. Task leader helps subordinates to finish the task and smooth over relationship problem. Social –emotional leader concerned to keep subordinates’ morale at high level through allaying fears, reducing tension, and settling disagreements and arguments. Sometimes it can be the same person but sometimes they are different people and sometimes these are shared by more than one person. Sometimes the Social-emotional Leader doesn’t hold an official position and takes on the tasks of his own initiative. They are quite essential to the group. Tensions between individuals usually arise and need to be smoothed over. The person who can do this is quite valuable to...

...Organizational behaviour can be defined as the study of managing the behaviour of people within an organizational context. This includes how the human resource of an organization is organized and used to help an organization achieve its competitive advantage over others in the market. It is also how the organization responds to the employees. It includes understanding the behaviour and motivating them to bring out the best of the organization (Luthans 2011). Furthermore it is the field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups, and organizational structures have on the behavior of these actors within the organizations. Through organization behavior it is aimed to describe systematically how people behave under variety of conditions. Furthermore it helps understand why people behave the way they do. The study also enables the organization to make future prediction of how the employees behave. Finally it aims to control and develop the worker’s activities at work. The other important aspect of organization behavior is that it takes into account the importance of human resource in an indispensible part of an organization. As the owner of Wal-Mart was quoted as saying, “The people are the key”. (Luthans 2011). This is because technology can be easily copied but the beliefs, creativity, values and motivation that the employees bring into an organization cannot be replicated. It always is a unique factor and this is what the organizations need to capitalize on...

...Running head: CONDUCTING A FOCUS GROUP Conducting a Focus Group of XXX Educational Program Graduates By Outstanding DHA Student Medical University of South Carolina PURPOSE The purpose of this paper is to describe the planning and design of a focus group for recent graduates of the XXX Program at YYY State University in Northridge (UN). The mission of the XXX program is to produce graduates that can function effectively in staff, front-line management and middle management positions for a variety of health care sectors. Insufficient data exists to determine qualitatively if we have fulfilled our mission. This qualitative research is intended to answer the following question: “How well did the UN XXX Program prepare you for the current position you hold in your organization?” Although this project is intended to serve as a form of self-contained research, it is conceivable that the results of this project may lead to the creation of additional sources of data such as employer focus groups or survey instruments for additional insight. PLANNING Morgan (1997) emphasizes that three factors must be taken into consideration prior to planning for a focus group; ethical concerns, budgetary issues and time constraints. Although personal work experiences will be shared by the intended participants, there is no intent to ask questions of a personal demographic nature such, as home address...
