Cars, farm animals, community helpers, and dinosaurs are some of the topics and materials that have been incorporated into the Block Center. Steven is excited about each one. He sits on the carpet with his Center Card and anxiously waits to be released to Center Time. When his name is called, Steven rushes to the block area. Steven is happy when he places his Center Card in one of the four available spots. While in the Block Center, he interacts, shares, and cooperates with peers. However, when it is time to transition to Bathroom and Handwashing, Steven refuses to clean up the materials. He folds his arms, stomps, and says, “NO, I don’t want to!” He pushes any peers that are near him.Some days, Steven does not get his Center Card in place before his peers, and the Block Center is full. Steven stomps, yells, and tries to replace a peer’s card with his own. Recently, he began to push peers out of the block center in an attempt to make room for himself.Assess Steven’s behavior in the scenario and write a report on your assessment.Choose two direct guidance strategies to respond to Steven’s behavior when he needs to transition from blocks.Choose two direct guidance strategies to respond to Steven’s behavior when he does not achieve a spot in the Block Center.Guidance strategies should NOT include closing the Block Center.For each guidance strategy, address the following:What will the educators do and say before, during, and after guidance strategy implementation?What are the expected results of the guidance strategy?What are Steven’s possible reactions after two weeks of guidance strategy implementation?What will the educators do next?Guidance strategies need to be supported by a minimum of 3 credible resources.

POST a brief explanation of two potential impacts of using tests not linked to job analyses.

A properly constructed employment examination should result in test scores that predict job success and documentation that convinces the test reviewer that the scores will be valid. A validation study provides evidence to support the use of predictor scores (Drasgow, Whetzel, & Oppler, 2007). As you discovered last week, there are three legal strategies for demonstrating validity: criterion-related validity, content validity and construct validity. Content validity is often the basis for meeting legal and professional requirements. Content validity requires the test constructor to document the link between the job analysis and the selection process. What are the potential implications to an organization if a validation study is not conducted before a test administration process begins? What are the implications of weak validation procedures or incomplete documentation?POST a brief explanation of two potential impacts of using tests not linked to job analyses. Then, explain one consequence of using a misaligned testing process. Support your response with at least two examples from the current literature.

Are you going to hire an outside company to expand your network?

Week 4 Assignment – Project RecommendationsOverviewFor this assignment, you will create a response to the following memo from your Project Manager:MemoFrom: The PMTo: Members of the project teamAttached is the Gantt chart for the project.As you can see, we have a tight schedule. Please review it and comment on your area, as we know the coming project will be challenging. With everyone’s help, though, I’m sure we can pull this off with a minimum of scope creep. I look forward to hearing from you before the meeting on Tuesday.This project involves moving our current in-house system to a cloud solution. We are not sure yet if we’re going to partner with an outside company to manage the cloud services or if we’re going to just rent space on Google, Amazon, Microsoft, or other cloud services. I’ll expect a recommendation from each of you based on your area of expertise. Do your research and provide me the pros and cons of the option you are recommending. Be sure to share where you got that information, so I can take a look at your reasoning if I have questions. DO NOT just cut and paste what you find, but rather explain the pros and cons in your own words.Gantt Chart File [PDF]InstructionsRespond in amemo using the Word document template provided. There should be two parts to your response.Part 1The first part of your response is based on the research you complete determining whetherto go with a company to manage cloud services or to rent space with one of the well-established cloud services. Include the following:A list of the pros and cons to both options. You should have at least two pros and cons for each option.Your recommendation that is supported by your research.A list of the sources that informed your recommendation. Be sure that these sources are varied and from a variety of relevant perspectives. They should also be credible sources. For example, what Google claims their cloud service will do may not be the experience of a business using their service. In the same way, a small business may have a different experience with the same service a large business uses.Part 2The second part is the additions needed to the Gantt chart in your area of expertise. Consider what steps will need to occur in your area in order to make this project possible. Consider also the time it will take to complete each of the subtasks, keeping in mind the overall timeline of the project. Include the following:A list of subtasks that need to be added to your area of the Gantt chart. (For example, if you’re a networking specialist, you’ll need to decide what you’re going to do with the network to support the project. Are you going to hire an outside company to expand your network? Do you have the bandwidth you’ll need now that the system is going to be located in the cloud? How much time do you need to purchase equipment like an additional router or a better firewall?)A breakdown of any equipment that will be needed for each subtask and when it will need to be installed.Here are some questions to consider for each role as you write your response memo:If you’re the IT Project manager, you’ll need to get recommendations from others on the team and then make your recommendation to the PM. What are the main considerations? You’ll need to research and come up with some options.If you’re the data analyst, do your research and find out what this transition will look like to the users in the company and your company’s clients/customers.If you’re the cybersecurity expert, what concerns do you have, and which methods will you use to secure the network and the cloud solution? What does the partner service provide and what will we need to do/know in the company, and what training will be needed for users?If you’re a software designer, what interface will you need to create/adopt? How will the software you’re using now change if we relocate to the cloud?If you’re a data manager, how will the database platform change/adapt to the relocation? How will the data be packaged, secured, stored, transported, backed up, etc.?
