Your facilitator will assign a case study scenario from the Week Five Case Studies document. You are a new manager appointed to find a solution to the challenges presented in the scenario.

 

Use the steps of the decision-making process regarding your assigned scenario.

 

• Case Scenario 2 The staff members at Smiley Hospital are assigned to specific patient age groups and their responsibilities differ across the floor. The staff has been complaining that their evaluations do not accurately measure their responsibilities, and they are being measured on performance outcomes they cannot control. Morale is low because they believe their work is not being recognized. The directors at Smiley Hospital have been challenged with developing a new way to fairly assess individual performances according to their various job descriptions.

 

Create a 7- to 12-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation that addresses the following:

 

• Identify the purpose.
  • Identify the challenges of being a manager.
• Set the criteria.
  • Explain the goals you want to achieve as a manager.
• Weight the criteria.
  • Explain the goals in order of importance as a manager.
• Seek alternatives.
  • Analyze alternative tools a manager can use to motivate staff.
  • Analyze how a leader can use these tools to motivate staff.
  • Explain how leaders and managers motivate staff differently.
  • Explain tips managers can use to empower staff.
• Test alternatives.
  • Analyze how positive modeling can be used in this scenario and the alternatives available for modeling.
  • Analyze how managers can incorporate mentorship into daily responsibilities.
• Troubleshoot.
  • Explain how to address resistance from staff.
  • Explain the issues that may impede the achievement of goals.
• Evaluate the action.
  • Evaluate how goals will be measured to ensure success.
  • Analyze the ethical considerations in leadership and management.
  • Explain other management decisions that must be considered in the scenario to improve employee morale.
  • Analyze how the success of the decisions will be measured.

    Cite a minimum of 5 references.

1.Discuss substantive ways in which armed conflict can contribute to or distract a developing economy and infrastructure. Analyze specific reasons why developed nations do not experience the same kinds of social upheaval.

 

2. Every country in the world is constructed around the same set of institutional frameworks that differ only in how governments manage them. Identify the specific components of an institution. Next, use two (2) examples of institutions —such as a financial system, a judicial system, or the armed forces — to illustrate what developing countries overall have done to weaken or strengthen such institutions.

 

Each question should be answered in 150 words or more. No title cover sheet,no reference unless you need to cite anything written.

Assignment 2: Inclusion versus Segregation

One of the top issues in special education is the ongoing debate of “inclusion versus segregation.” The idea of inclusion in education is that all students, no matter what disability they may have, should learn together in the same environment. Fully inclusive schools do not differentiate between special education courses and general education courses, but rather include students with learning, emotional, behavioral, or physical disabilities in classes with all of the other students.

The idea of segregation in education suggests that there are benefits to providing classes separate from general education classes that meet the needs of students with special needs. For some students, this may be for just one or two subjects, while for other students, this encompasses all of their courses.

In this assignment, you will consider those students who suffer from behavioral disorders or social skill deficits.

Using the module readings, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, research observational learning. Then, address the following:

• Based on your learning about observational learning in this module, what are the benefits that these students could gain through their inclusion into a regular classroom?
• How could the principles of observational learning help to improve the classroom behavior of students with behavioral disorders or social skill deficits?
• What are some of the classroom disadvantages for employing inclusion for other typically developing students?
• Do you support the move toward inclusion? Why or why not?

Write a 4–5-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Be sure to include a title page and a reference page. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M4_A2.doc.

By Wednesday, January 13, 2016, deliver your assignment to the M4: Assignment 2 Dropbox.

Due Week 2 and worth 100 points

Suppose a local college has tasked you to develop a database that will keep track of students and the courses that they have taken. In addition to tracking the students and courses, the client wants the database to keep track of the instructors teaching each of the courses.

Use the internet to research the types of information that a college would want to track in a database. Focus your attention on information that could represent entities within a database as well as attributes of such entities.

Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:

1. Describe the purpose of the database.
2. Based on your research and / or common knowledge of a college and the information tracked by a college, describe the entities of the database and the attributes of each entity.
3. Based on your research and / or common knowledge of a college and the information tracked by a college, describe the business rules that could impact the structure of the database.
4. Determine the information that the conceptual model of the database would include and determine the information that the physical model of the database would include.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

• Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
• Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Describe the role of databases and database management systems in managing organizational data and information.
• Compose conceptual data modeling techniques to capture the information requirements.
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in database systems.
• Write clearly and concisely about relational database management systems using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.
