For Part 1 of this paper, I made a concept map on a Prezi that outlines the six main concepts of the class, the subparts of each concept, and applications to a classroom setting. The six topics, although all different aspects of educational psychology, interact and combine when applied to a classroom setting. Reflecting on my past experiences, I see how knowledge of each concept, both individually and in interaction with other concepts, can enhance one’s teaching. As I was teaching private…
In Pennsylvania, students may not be introduced to the concept of culture until after fifth grade, as the state and national core curriculum shies away from the general topic until middle school. More specifically, the Wallingford-Swarthmore School District specifies that between kindergarten and fifth grade, the children will “explore the themes of neighborhoods and communities,” and then “learn about United States geography and history” (Curriculum & education). Thus, even though…
A Critique: Quantitative Research Study In their article, The relationship between nurses' perceptions of empowerment and patient satisfaction, Donahue, Piazza, Griffin, Dykes, and Fitzpatrick (2008) utilize a descriptive correlational design to describe nurses’ perceptions of empowerment and patient satisfaction and to identify and examine relationships among these variables (Grove, Gray, and Burns, 2015). In their introduction to the article, the authors cite the need for nurse executives to…
that we could afford to enlarge markets, improve processes and innovate on new products. No Schmall included Senn and Isensee within an 11 person Executive Committee that would lead VWB’s transformation (see Exhibit 3). Using a Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard for Cultural and Strategic…
The first step is to choose strategic objectives within each perspective. Some example of strategic objectives are: increase sales, improve call handling time, and improve prevention of injuries. These objectives map out the company’s vision and strategy, therefore, the strategy map tells the path of an organization’s objectives. The balanced scorecard states that if a strategy has three objectives; the manager will succeed in all three. If there are four to ten objectives they succeed in one to…
and you can improve your answers with critique from the other members. If we were studying for a history test, we could quiz and aid one another and this will improve everyone’s comprehension of the material. For example, if I didn’t understand a concept, then I could ask a group member to explain it to me. Another example would be if I was unsure of how to improve my answer because I could then have someone give me feedback and…

Part A- three important points that stood out to you in the article. As I was reading this article, I came across three concepts that caught my eye as I was reading. The first concept that stood out to me in the article was that the author called God a designer- creator of the world. Even though I believe God created a perfect world for us to live in, I never pictured him and or categorized him as a designer of the world. I just labeled him as a savior that protects and forgives others, a…
To begin with, something in chapter 10 that I agree with is the concept of autonomy. This is simply the capability to change what is around you such as the lighting or temperature. This concept is further explicated on page 339 of our textbook and I think that it should be an integral part of educations. A way that I have seen this in play is through a multi-genre research project. The teacher allowed my class and I to pick through a number of reporting options over certain topics that we also…
would be absurd if it was even true and could not be refuted in any argument. To begin with Descartes’ evil genius, there will be two vital topics of discussion, doubt, and certainty. Doubt is a key concept when it comes to Skepticism and even more so when it comes to Descartes’ Evil Genius. The concept is simple, there is an evil genius who takes everything in your life and replaces it with something that is not real. As a result, your surroundings are no longer real. This is where Descartes…
