...medicinal intervention. Thirdly, primary symptoms persist even after using medicines. Fourth, some children suffering from ADHD are effectively helped by behavior therapy when symptoms are minor. This paper is a proposed action plan of treating John who suffers from inattentive ADHD through a functional behavioral assessment (FBA). a) Operational definition of behavior This is the first stage of the FBA. Prior to selecting effective data collection methods to perform the FBA, the paraprofessional should define the behavioral problem. This definition should take into account the measurable, observable, and objective terms. The behavioral problems identified should be clear. Otherwise, it increases the difficulties involved in measuring the behavior with accuracy. Moreover, it complicates the identification of the function of the behavior and the formulation of an effective intervention method. After a collection of concrete information, regarding he behavioral problem, then the teacher or paraprofessional can refine the definition of the problem (Functional Behavioral Assessment, Behavioral Intervention Plans, and Positive Intervention and Supports: An Essential Part of Effective School Wide Discipline in Virginia, 2009). In our case study, John is inattentive for the greater part of the day. His specific problems include refusing to do school work and ignoring his paraprofessional...

None Level Undergraduate Beginner Focus Company Background NOTES None This narrative provides a historical background for how GBI began and an overview of its operations and strategy. This information will be used extensively throughout the curriculum material. Authors Simha Magal Stefan Weidner Version 2.11 © SAP AG CASE STUDY Company History Task Get to know the company’s history. Time 15 min Short Description Read the below narrative to learn about the company’s history. Global Bike Inc. has a pragmatic design philosophy that comes from its deep roots in both the off-road trail racing and long-distance road racing sports. Nearly 20 years ago, its founders designed their first bikes out of necessity—they had races to win and the bikes that were available at the time did not perform to their extremely high standards. So, they took matters into their own hands and built legendary bikes that would outlast and outperform the competition. From these humble origins, Global Bike Incorporated was born and continues to deliver innovative highperformance bicycles to the world’s most demanding riders. Notes This heritage of entrepreneurial spirit and quest for design perfection is still the cornerstone of GBI’s corporate philosophy....

...Nowadays there are a lot of students who go for cheating using their internet browsers or cell phones or even IPods. Sam and John are students at Flagship University who violated some basic principles of academic integrity in different ways. What should be the response for those students? Should they get the same response from their instructor according to the way they violated the rules? What are the punishments they should get upon this attitude? First of all, Sam is a first year student, he did well in high school and he expected to do the same in college, but when he started to write his projects and essays he was overwhelmed at the amount of work to complete. So using the same techniques he used at high school he started to browse the internet and go to library to take notes from books, but he forgot to write about from where did he took the information, so he tried his best to remember and write them and finally he submitted his papers. After two weeks he received a note from his professor saying that he was charged for an academic dishonesty. In my opinion, the institution should have responded to Sam describing what happened and why he was charged with academic dishonesty because I think he did not really meant to violate the rules by cheating or copying someone’s work as his work, he was just doing what he was taught at his school. In the other hand, Sam should have pay attention to his professor because he must have said that he should put some references in his...

...ESSAY WRITING ''Effective study skills are the sole foundation of a sound education" The title of this essay could suggest that by applying the correct methods, habits and practices to the learning experience (study skills) and by developing these through practice and reflection that this in itself provides the exclusive means of progress in learning. Gettinger and Seibert (2002) reiterate that study skills are essential to any academic subject and successful outcomes are achieved by a wide variety of students employing them. By having the appropriate knowledge and applying effective study skills thereafter, the results are more likely to be favorable. Paradoxically, students may go through school with a sound level of a knowledge but experience difficulties due to not having the right study skills. (Stella Cottrell 4th edition) Covers many of these learning skills such as Be Organised This covers all areas for study such as looking at your time and how you organise it, your space to study in ensuring that is quite and you will not be disturbed, your literature, notes and files on your PC or mobile device where they are how they are all stored and in a place that you can find them. Keep Motivated This would involve setting goals short and long term in order to stay focused and achieves a feeling of reward for those milestones that are achieved. Staying positive as thinking negatively can erode away any confidence you may have to...

...Spirit-filled life, Paul must reckon with Israel's place in the overall scheme of God's plan and show how the Gentiles are grafted into that plan. As Moo states, "If they are to embrace the gospel, they must see how it is truly the fulfillment of the Old Testament."1 Additionally, this section answers questions concerning the promises of past, present and future that God is in fact honoring. Murray notes that, "If this section of the epistle were absent, there would be a hiatus leaving us with unanswered questions and the corresponding perplexity." 2 Paul is obviously in anguish over the confusion among his brethren. He must explain who Abraham's "offspring" truly are (the remnant) and communicate the inclusion of the Gentiles due to God's unfailing mercy. The gospel is made available to all (Rom. 10:13); however, God knows who will accept Him and who will reject Him. Most of the Jews rejected Jesus when He walked among them. While chapter 9 discusses Israel's unbelief, and how they "stumbled over the 'stumbling stone'," I can't help but be sympathetic toward their plight. Barclay notes that "The fundamental mistake of the Jews was that they tried to get into a right relationship with God through their own efforts."3 But I think, wait a minute! Didn't God give them all of those commandments and demand that they follow them? Weren't they just doing what they were told? At what point are they held...

...2006) makes a persuasive argument that the Gospels display eyewitness testimony and thus renews the quest for the identity of the Beloved Disciple as the author of the Fourth Gospel. While Bauckham attributes this Gospel to “the presbyter John” mentioned by Papias, the authors of this study show that the patristic evidence more likely seems to support the authorship of John the apostle and that the literary device of inclusio in the Fourth Gospel, astutely observed by Bauckham, also favors the authorship of John the son of Zebedee. Key Words: Fourth Gospel, Beloved Disciple, John, authorship, apostle, Zebedee, John the Elder, Papias, Eusebius, Muratorian Fragment, Polycrates, Irenaeus, Bauckham Introduction Recent years have witnessed a significant number of publications on the identity of “the disciple Jesus loved” in John’s Gospel. The ever more daring proposals have included identifications of this figure as diverse as the apostle Thomas, Mary Magdalene, Lazarus, James the son of Zebedee, and even the Samaritan woman, among others. 1 Most recently, Richard Bauckham has weighed in on this debate in his landmark volume Jesus and the 1. Thomas: James H. Charlesworth, The Beloved Disciple: Whose Witness Validates the Gospel of John? (Valley Forge, PA: Trinity Press International, 1995), 414–21. He lists and evaluates 22 proposals made by other scholars (pp. 127–224). Mary Magdalene: Joseph A. Grassi, The Secret Identity of...

...The Purdue OWL: Citation Chart Category General Approach MLA The Modern Language Association (MLA) provides a method for source documentation that is used in most humanities courses. The humanities place emphasis on authorship, so most MLA citation involves recording the author’s name in the physical text. The author’s name is also the first to appear in the “Works Cited” page at the end of an essay. The most recent MLA formatting can be found in the seventh edition of the MLA manual. APA The American Psychological Association (APA) provides a method for source documentation that is used in most social sciences courses. The social sciences place emphasis on the date a work was created, so most APA citation involves recording the date of a particular work in the physical text. The date is usually placed immediately after the author’s name in the “References” page at the end...

...photography. No one knew hat the night of March 1, 1932 was going to be the worst night for the Lindbergh’s on that evening Anne and the Nursemaid, Betty, put baby Charles to sleep. A while later Charles Lindbergh arrived at the house and ate dinner with Ann, after having dinner he went to his study while Anne got ready for bed; meanwhile Betty went to check on the baby, and she walked into the room, she didn’t hear anything, so she ventured closer to the crib, and when she got close enough to see, she realized the baby was gone. She raced to the study to see if the baby was with his father, but when she saw that he wasn’t their, she went to see if he was with his mother, but he wasn’t with her either. Charles Lindbergh couldn’t believe what was going he first said “Anne they have stolen our baby”(Beverly 15). After searching he found a ransom note but he did not touch it in case of finger prints, and then immediately he called the police saying “[T]his is Charles Lindbergh, my son has just been kidnapped” (Greg n.p.). In minutes the police arrived and Lindbergh told them everything, they took the note and immediately checked for prints, then they gave it to Charles to open. The note stated not to call the police and asked for 50,000 dollars. The home of the Lindbergh’s was chaotic with every news media there, and in minutes everyone in the country knew what was happening. Even though the Lindbergh’s world seemed to be falling apart, the police and many people stepped in and...

...New Testament Research Paper REL 112: Introduction to New Testament Zondervan’s Pictorial Bible Dictionary Introduction This bible dictionary was originally copyrighted in 1963. The dictionary begins with a brief introduction about the author and General Editor of the Dictionary, Dr. Merrill C. Tenney.

...answer prayer? If so, why are prayers sometimes not answered? What should we pray about: praise, thanks, petition, worship, requests, intercession for others? When and how often should we pray? What conditions must we meet for our prayers to be heard and answered? What power does prayer have? Click here to listen to this material as a free MP3 audio Bible study message. Introduction: In Luke 11:1 Jesus' disciples asked, "Lord, teach us to pray." Christians today also need to learn to pray. The purpose of this study is to help Christians improve in prayer. People who are new in the faith may have never studied about how to pray. Some members do not pray properly so their prayers are not even answered. All of us can improve in this aspect of worship. We need to learn what to pray about. Should we make requests, be thankful, offer praise, intercede on behalf of others, offer petition? And what power does prayer have? Does God really answer prayer? If so, how should we pray and what conditions must prayer meet in order for God to hear and answer? These and other questions will be considered in this study. What is prayer? Note Acts 4:24,31. Prayer is simply man talking to God, expressing his thoughts to God (Rom. 10:1; Matt. 6:9ff). Hence, it is a form of communication similar in may ways to simply talking to our earthly father, except that we must remember whom we are addressing and must meet conditions of acceptable prayer. I. What Should We Pray About? What should we include...
