Contextual

Within my visual representation, I have implemented an array of techniques in order to convey the comparative contextual values in both The Book Thief, and V for Vendetta. My poster features a young male looking into a mirror, and perceiving his own reflection. However the mirror itself is split evenly in half representing the dualistic nature of mankind; ‘brutality versus beauty’. On the left of the image, the concept of brutality is I believe being successfully portrayed, as through the…

As we have learned previously, Ireland has many important potential contexts that might affect a leader. Earlier I asked, how do Contextual Factors Shape the Work of a Leader? To answer this question I think a person must understand that everyone, every organization, and every country has their own set of contextual factors that would affect leadership when dealing with them. Also, a person’s personality or character may naturally fit some context in certain situations…

Successful speeches have the inherent ability to empower audiences to recognise contextual issues and deepen their acknowledgement of shared challenges and consequently influencing profound change. In light of this, speeches further achieve success when this recognition of contextual issues extends beyond the contemporary audience. Such empowerment to recognise contextual issues resonates powerfully within J.K Rowling’s notable Harvard commencement address, “The Fringe Benefits of Failure and…

community. The search for identity is one of the most challenging issues that a college student will face. Often, the difficulty to precisely define individual identity is due to the fluidity and many multi-layered facets of identity. Personal contextual factors such as class, race, gender, religious affiliations, and sexuality are often used to help define and establish a sense of identity. A sense of elitism and privilege arises when an individual is accepted into an organization based on…

In the article Why and Under What Contextual Conditions Do Early-Maturing Girls Develop Problem Behaviors? by Therése Skoog and Håkan Stattin, the authors seek to understand why early maturing girls tend to have more behavioral problems than those who mature later. The article starts by introducing two different hypotheses’ the maturational-deviance hypothesis and stage-termination hypothesis. The maturational-deviance hypothesis says that it is stressful for youth to reach milestones in…

these two elements make a difference in how American government executes and oversees well in the bureaucracy. When it comes to organizational goals, it would be interesting for me to see the agency’s contextual goals by connecting with the effect of constraints. Wilson pointed out that contextual goals functioned like the constraints to make managers such as police and school administrators, and leaders in FBI take a risk-averse position by taking care of the extra works instead of their main…

outcomes. In the evaluation, evaluators would stick to a research method as a basis to guide an evaluation design (Chen, n.d.). This evaluation type ignores contextual factors in different evaluations. Theory-driven evaluation provides a great solution for the issue above. Theory-driven evaluators would facilitate stakeholders to clarify contextual factors and mechanisms of the program. According to these, evaluators would come up with an appropriate program theory to guide the evaluation as an…

During the interactive oral I feel my understanding of the cultural and contextual elements of the work helped me develop a better understanding of why the murder of Santiago Nasar occurred. The discussion talked over: why the brothers murdering Santiago was socially acceptable in this rural area, as well as how certain characteristics or actions were normals of their society. An example being machismo being a huge aspect of Colombia’s culture. Jina Malone and I connected together how the…

processing, and the encoding of novel stimuli. Recent studies (also using the fMRI machine) proposed that the PHC is largely involved in contextual associative processing...The results clearly demonstrate that the PHC influences the processing of contextual information and provides experimental evidence for an understanding of the different functions of bilateral PHC in contextual associative memory.” This study was stimulated by the great controversy over this topic and thus relied heavily on…
