ENGLISH LITERATURE Candidates should be equipped with in-depth know-how of literature, language, and linguistics. Candidates should be trained well on how to organize their ideas in logical ways, research, write well, analyze and detailed and complex text, and critically observe and read. In doing so, candidates should also develop competency in classroom management, literature, lesson design, vocabulary, instructional delivery, grammar, prose, and methods of teaching writing that are research-based. While candidates are integrating knowledge on the discipline of English with techniques and teaching theories, emphasizing on gaining extensive field experience is vital. The candidates should know the non-print and print texts, classic texts, media texts, and contemporary texts that include young and adults that represent a wide range of various historical traditions, experiences from different genders, literature, social classes, and ethnicities. They will also be able to apply the literary theories in the critic and interpretation of various texts. (Christenbury,2006) The use of performances and creative writing improves the lives of candidates with the pleasure of good self-expression and literature. I also prefer these strategies because they are more effective.…

Defining Scope The collecting requirement is more like collecting items or capabilities that a given customer requires in the final deliverable. The collecting requirements tend to specify the attributes, capabilities, and features of the project deliverable. The stakeholders’ requirements, such as wants, needs, and wishes, are analyzed to derive the requirements. Thereafter the requirements are prioritized to enable the determination of which project requirement should be included or excluded. Defining Scope The scope tends to describe the basic boundaries of the project. The defining scope further describes the tasks and activities that should be covered to fulfill the requirements. It also outlines the details included in the project and adds on the missing details that should be included in the project to be successful. The scope is divided into two categories, namely; product scope and the project scope. The product scope features characterizing the product, service, or the overall result. Project scope entails the work needed to deliver a given service, a product, or even the results defined in the product scope. Notations Scope tends to perceive the accomplishment of…

Commercial Umbrella Insurance Any given business, at some point, is prone to hold excessive liability coverage. Unfortunately, incidents like accidents are unavoidable. The chances of your business being subjected to a lawsuit that is a far way higher than your pre-existing insurance policies can be nerve-wracking. Having said that, as an entrepreneur, you need to evaluate your budget and gauge whether commercial umbrella insurance is worth the extra mile of investment for your business. What is commercial umbrella insurance? This coverage policy is customized to cover all other insurance policies just if the existing insurance policy limits become drained. The word “umbrella” best describes the protective part of this policy for your potential liability risk. For instance, if your company has a fleet of employed drivers for delivery services, then it means your consideration for commercial umbrella insurance cover will be a priority as chances of them being exposed to accidents and other risks will also be higher. In some cases where you need to bind a contractual agreement with the government, this given cover is also mandatory. Under which…

Vaccination Vaccination is a big issue in the United States. Some of the parents feel that their children do not need the vaccine since, at that particular time, they are healthy and strong, and as such, these parents feel that vaccinations are not necessary. However, as it turns out, this is far from the truth, and as the story of Regina Booth illustrates, vaccination is vital for the long-term health of a child. Another mistake that parents make on the issue is relying on physicians for their children’s health needs rather than approaching the real experts who know more than the pediatricians. Therefore, the chapter looks to address the physicians’ variations in their approach to those parents who decline the experts’ recommendations. The chapter discusses several sections that show three models that can alleviate this tension when providing pediatric care. The first model is individualized vaccine schedule practice explained by Ben Kirkland, a pediatrician who opted to open his own practice. This model is very convenient for all those involved; for instance, the patient can get the personalized care they…

Employees’ attitudes Firstly, discuss some of the attitudes most valued by employers, as discussed in the e-text. Employees’ attitudes play a significant role in the profitability and success of any organization. For that reason, attitudes influence the hiring and promotion of workers. One attitude valued by employers is the self-motivation to be accountable for the job. No employees need an inflexible, stubborn, and arrogant employee; instead, they value workers who are open to change. An employee with the team spirit facilitates decision making and problem-solving in the organization. Other necessary attitudes that employers value include honesty, health consciousness, basic interpersonal skills, and co-worker diversity appreciation.  Discuss how you can counteract that negative thinking by using positive thinking that would keep your attitude more in line with what employers are looking for in their employees. At one time, we had planned to meet with my newly found friend at a restaurant for coffee. She was thirty minutes late, and I started lamenting that I must have said something wrong over the phone that did not please her, and that’s why she…

Describe data link control. The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model has seven layers that perform different functions. One of the OSI model layers is the data link layer responsible for network communication and data transfer. The layer is responsible for establishing and providing a reliable and efficient data transfer platform across different networks. Therefore, Data Link Control (DLC) is the service provided by the data link layer of the OSI model. For example, some networks only allow the transfer of one piece of data at a time. Suppose several pieces of data are transmitted simultaneously. In that case, they are likely to collide, which may lead to data loss or any other unanticipated network failure. Therefore, data link control provides the requisite coordination between networks so that there is minimal network traffic or congestion that would otherwise translate into data loss. Identify two functions that are performed by the DLC. DLC performs three primary functions; line discipline, error, and flow control. To start with, line discipline determines the devices responsible for data transfer and when the data will be transferred.…

Group Dynamics–Intragroup, Dominant Group, and Marginalization In every society, the dominant groups are positively privileged. Their favor in society negatively affects minorities. Minorities suffer from negative treatment in terms of wealth, power, political, economic, or social. For instance, dominant groups get the best education while the marginalized nearly get a poor education. This widens the difference between the two communities. Marginalized groups get neglected in society. Since immigrants and refugees are yet to establish themselves in society, they are challenged in the community. According to the example of Aaron, discrimination in society has a lot of impact on society. Immigrants and refugees easily suffer from depression and stress because they have been neglected and the way they are handled in society. Due to a lack of multicultural practices, racial and ethnic differences between blacks and whites were experienced. The rejection from society due to these racial differences and discrimination has endless negative impacts, like in the Aaron story, one can easily suffer from mental health disease. As mentioned earlier, the distress can lead to persons taking their own life; hence,…

Wrights Mills “The Promise” Wrights Mills “The Promise” focuses on how individuals can identify their current experiences with their historical and social backgrounds. The current personal problems are connected to historical issues. The author’s main point is that sociological imagination helps individuals to acknowledge how historical and social structures affect personal milieu. To support his argument, Mills breaks up his idea into three sections: how society affects an individual’s milieu, what questions to ask oneself, and how individuals and institutions differ from one another. In the first section, the author highlights a general overview to show the audience the effect of history on individuals. A transition, such as industrialization, renders peasants to workers, and a child lacks a parent when a wife or husband is forced by circumstances to stay alone (Mills 3). The author uses this example to imply that one social class’s rise brings imbalance. He provides additional examples that relate well with industrialization, such as the rise or fall of an investment. In such a case, some people become wealthier, while others become broke. Furthermore, children who…

ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS TRAINING Introduction EHR is an electronic system that stores information on patients. Though the system is expensive, it comes with a cost savings benefit. To effectively adapt the system, the hospital must provide an advanced but not too early training, prepare the staff psychologically, offer a variety of training sessions, and encourage specialization of the staff according to their area of expertise. EHR requires intensive training; a training plan should be prepared to ensure that all the nurses, physicians, and staff, both the current and future, have sufficient knowledge and skills before launching the program. The training should consider the organization’s strategic plan, goals, objectives, the learning styles and competence level of trainees, and the risks associated with the process (Green, 2018). The whole process should be in line with the organization’s technological strategy. Staff categorizing in EHR training The categorizing process should be based on the staff’s input on the process’s aim and entail members from all the departments available in the hospital. The input process of people from the cardiology department is different from those…
