What was the “Big Strike?” What happened during some of the major events of the strike, including “Bloody Thursday” in San Francisco?

1. What was the “Big Strike?” What happened during some of the major events of the strike, including “Bloody Thursday” in San Francisco? (pp. 127-130; 132-133)
2. Why did the events in San Pedro (the Port of Los Angeles) especially demonstrate the steadfastness of the strikers? What were the strikers up against in that city? (pp. 130-132).
3. Why were there racial divisions between white and black workers in San Francisco and other west coast ports? How did white strike leaders and black workers begin to address those divisions? (pp. 133-134)?
4. How did the MWIU (a Communist Party union) force the ISU and SUP (AFL unions) to take a more active role in the strike? (pp. 134-136).
5. Why did the course of the San Francisco general strike (an event within the Big Strike) actually threaten the accomplishments of the Big Strike? (pp. 146-150).

How does understanding the unique aspects of development guide you to engage and meet the academic abilities of students with various abilities and exceptionalities (e.g., learning disabilities, ELLs, cultural factors, gifted/talented, and early finishers)?

It is important for educators to know and identify milestones of the stages of child and adolescent development to implement appropriate strategies that meet the cognitive, linguistic, social-emotional, and physical needs of all students. This information is needed to identify the major concepts, principles, and learning theories related to the stages of development. This information will help in determining effective teaching practices, based on learning theories and research on child and adolescent development.
Part 1: Characteristics and Milestones
Utilizing the topic Resources and your own research, complete Part 1 of the “Stages of Child and Adolescent Development” template by identifying the characteristics and milestones of each developmental area (cognitive, linguistic, social-emotional, and physical) for each grade band.
Part 2: Learning Theories
Complete Part 2 of the “Stages of Child and Adolescent Development” template by identifying at least one learning theory for each developmental area and explaining how it supports the area. Discuss key concepts and major principles that support each learning theory identified.
Part 3: Reflection
Write a 250-500 word reflection examining instructional strategies across developmental domains. Include the following in your reflection:
How you can incorporate learning theories, including major concepts and key principles into your future teaching practice. Include in your discussion the differences between at least two of the grade bands and how this will affect your teaching at those levels.
How does understanding the unique aspects of development guide you to engage and meet the academic abilities of students with various abilities and exceptionalities (e.g., learning disabilities, ELLs, cultural factors, gifted/talented, and early finishers)?
Choose the grade band in which you are most interested in teaching and provide one instructional strategy for each of the developmental areas you could use to support students and their individual needs in the classroom.

In a clear, careful, sharply focused essay, explain what determinism claims, then explain the additional claims made by “hard determinism.” Many philosophers have thought that hard determinism is very disturbing; explain why. “Soft determinists” think that free will is possible even in a completely deterministic universe. Give a clear, careful, sharply focused explanation of what you take to be the best version of soft determinism. Do you think that version of soft determinism is convincing? Explain why, or why not. Explain “scientific libertarianism”. Do you think that scientific libertarianism is less disturbing than determinism? Explain why, or why not.

Write a paper regarding these questions.

Marker’s Tattoo Studio wants to buy new laser therapy equipment. This new equipment would cost $300,000 to purchase and $20,000 to install. Marker’s estimates that this new equipment would yield incremental margins of $98,000 annually due to new client services. It would require incremental cash maintenance costs of $10,000 annually. Marker’s expects the life of this equipment to be 5 years. They estimate a terminal disposal value of $20,000. Marker’s has a 25% income tax rate and depreciates assets on a straight-line basis (to terminal value) for tax purposes. The required rate of return on investments is 10%. Determine the expected increase in annual net income from investing in the new equipment. Calculate the accrual accounting rate of return based on average investment.

Marker’s has a 25% income tax rate and depreciates assets on a straight-line basis (to terminal value) for tax purposes. The required rate of return on investments is 10%.
Determine the expected increase in annual net income from investing in the new equipment.
Calculate the accrual accounting rate of return based on average investment.
Summarize whether the new equipment is worth investing in from a net present value (NPV) standpoint.
Suppose that the tax authorities are willing to let Marker’s depreciate the new equipment down to zero over its useful life. If Marker’s plans to liquidate the equipment in 5 years, should it take this option? Quantify the impact of this choice on the NPV of the new equipment.

Briefly describe your selected financial instrument, approach or system-wide initiative. How is it relevant to your chosen organisation or industry in addressing wider social and environmental challenges?

At this point in the course, you have explored several financial instruments, approaches and system-wide initiatives meant to address social and environmental challenges. Having investors use a wider set of data to assess company performance is an example. Select any one of these financial instruments, approaches or system-wide initiatives that could be relevant to your chosen organisation or context. Consider how your selection can be used to address social and environmental challenges and answer the following questions:
• Briefly describe your selected financial instrument, approach or system-wide initiative. How is it relevant to your chosen organisation or industry in addressing wider social and environmental challenges?
• Select any one of the core leadership competencies (values, systems thinking, an ability to deal with complexity, empathy and an open mindset). How could this competency aid your organisation or industry in delivering your chosen financial instrument, approach or system-wide initiative?
