...Hello! Thank you for your question regarding the statistics of test takers and their test preparation expense. The short answer is that there are variations based on the specific type of test. I have prepared a response for each of the tests. Below are the details of my finding. TEST STATISTICS: For the statistics on test preparation cost, I have assumed the cost of test preparation materials found online for each of the tests. GRE: According to data from an ETS report, the total number of test takers for the general GRE between July 2013 and June 2014 was 572 779. Of this figure, 59% was US citizens while 36% was non-US citizens. The citizenship status of the remaining 5% percent was not specified. Preparation for the test varies as individuals may decide to buy the GRE test preparation samples available online. Assuming one prepares with the super kit, the cost is $70 for a soft copy. The cost of the taking a GRE test is $220.70 for Chinese test takers and $205 for test takers from the rest of the world. The test is available in about 1000 test centres around the world. The paper-delivered tests are offered three times a year at each test centre while the computer tests can be available for up to three times a month in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Korea test centres.

Through all of my preparation and experiences UCR would be a great university for me to accomplish my goals. 2. Describe how you have taken advantage of a significant educational opportunity or worked to overcome an educational barrier you have faced. Feel free to speak about either an opportunity or a barrier. It’s OK if you’ve experienced one and not the other.

...For measuring the success of a project, we have certain criteria’s to be met which are scope, time, cost goals, customer satisfaction, team satisfaction and quality of work. A part from this we also consider Return on Investment or bottom line and monetary value are also important metrics to be considered for measuring the success of a project. “Even if the project cost more than estimated, took longer to complete, and the project team was hard to work with, the project would be successful if users were happy with the upgraded computers” (Schwalbe, 2014). According to this point I think ROI is an important metric for a successful project. As ROI, gives an idea or an outline to the organization of the resources what to make use of and what not to use so, that the effort, time and budget would not be wasted and also it would be less. According to this circumstance, I think Return on Investment or Bottom Line plays a vital role for the success of the project. Monetary value is defined as the amount of value which is invested on a resource, product, or service and the item is given a price based upon the monetary value. As per my knowledge, I think that monetary value is important and always required for a project because each and every company come forward to accept the project in order to work for the project with the confidence of monetary value. For example, let us assume the famous company CISCO company, there are many users who utilize the service of CISCO phone services. Initially...

...1.1 Information Quality The information quality is related to the quality of the information systems content, which serves as a source of value to users (Huang and Benyoucef, 2013). The high-quality, sufficient and relevant information contribute to a positive brand image to the customer which benefit the business. The author will critically illustrate the reasons for the low score and poor performance in the information quality. 1.1.1 Language First of all, Savait tries to encourage the consumers to join the community by having the pop-up window written in English. In the home page, “the buyers’ choice”, a big “start shopping” title, a horizontal scrolling bar and the detailed product description which are all in English conveys the message to the customer that this website sells fashion products internationally. Besides, English titles are used at the bottom in order to tell customers where they can find the terms and conditions, shipment, payment, size, etc. However, what makes the user confusing is that the menu item is in both the English and Italian. In addition, when the consumer clicks the payment and shipment links which are both English in the footer menu, they will find the detailed information in Italian. The payment (Liu and Arnett, 2000) and shipment information (Xing, Grant, McKinnon et al, 2010) are crucial elements in the ecommerce because it is related to business transaction and service. It should be written in English in order to let the international consumer...

...In addition, one student in particular rounds the number to the nearest tens instead of the tenth place. The teacher will meet these students in a one and one Math conference and reteach place value using games and other hands-on activities. 2. What do student work samples from this lesson, reveal about those students’ levels of engagement and understanding? The students work sample reveals that three students did not mastered the concept of rounding numbers to the tenth place value. These students misapplied the rounding rules for rounding numbers left to right and appear to have difficulty finding the tenth place value. Considering, these three students will have a one on one Math conference with the teacher for further reinforcement. 3. How did your classroom procedures, student conduct, and use of the physical space contribute to student learning? The classroom procedures and student conduct were taught in the beginning of the school years and would be revisited when necessary. Therefore student knew the classroom expectations for an instructional session, recess time, whole group and small group sessions. In this math lesson, I used both whole group and small group instruction to ensure students understood and could identify the tenth place value, then look at the number door to the tenth to assist with either rounding the number up or down. Due to students knowing and understanding the classroom’s instructional expectations, they show no sign of behavior as they worked...

...“Consumers tended to shun private-label and unknown brands of pens and pencils to buy familiar brand names, but had little specific brand loyalty. (Cespedes and Kindley 2013). I agree with this because writing implements are only purchased a few times a year on average. The consumer may have difficulty differentiating because the product has a very low impact on daily functions. More than likely, the consumer will chose a brand they’ve used before or the first set that catches their eyes based on needs (cost, quantity, color, etc.). However, marketing research could establish a clear and concise answer to this question. “Marketing research enables firms to implement the marketing concept by helping them acquire information about whether and how their goods and services satisfy the desires of target-market customers” (Warren et al 2015). The only way to distinguish if products are differentiated in consumers’ minds is to poll them and compare information gathered with recorded sales data. On the retailer end, they are more than likely able to make a distinction between products more than the consumer would. The retailer would have historical sales data of their own to show which products have sold more and at what price points. Since the retailer has a brand to maintain, it would be logical to only sell products that have a large profit margin but that is not the only factor retailers consider. In addition to price, consumer purchasing habits or willingness to spend as well as...

...drawings. They should be allowed to choose and cut out, for instance, six or more of their circle drawings and think of as many connections as they can between each of the drawings. For example, ‘the face is smiling because the watch says it is lunchtime’. ‘The sun is roundish, or it as round as an orange’. Teaching strategies can be used to support creative thinking across the curriculum. Any lesson can develop creative thinking if it involves pupils or students generating ideas, suggesting hypotheses, applying imagination and finding new or innovative outcomes. Teachers should try to include creativity in the lessons they teach and look for evidence of pupils or students 1. using imagination 2. generating questions, ideas, and outcomes 3. experimenting with alternatives 4. being original 5. expanding on what they know or say 6. exercising their judgment (Fisher, 2006). Another strategy that could be adopted to spark and evoke a reasonable degree of the imaginative and the creativity of learners at secondary school level is to continue to use open-ended questions rather than closed-ended ones and to engage the learners in series of tasks; from simple to thought provoking ones. Sometimes, they are made to become resource persons or facilitators. Learners could be trained also on how to critique the existing order, appreciate, make a critical and constructive reform, evaluate or assess it. The wisdom here is to ensure that to an appreciable degree, students are remoulded from...
