· Is water with added wetting agents more effective than plain water for the extinction of fire in fibrous materials, such as furnishings?
Instructions

For the final project, you will complete the following instructions.

1. Complete the seventh essay of the scenario-based case study. The essay should be a one- to two-page narrative focusing on arguments that support what the authors discuss in Chapter 13, as well as other research that you conduct related to these concepts. You are to focus on one or two concepts in this unit’s chapters and relate to the fire that now involves several rooms and other apartments. Make sure the points are tangible. The narrative should consist of your evaluation of the textbook and other resources, listing the most compelling evidence or argument.

The questions below may help you to focus your essay on the one or two concepts chosen.

· Is water with added wetting agents more effective than plain water for the extinction of fire in fibrous materials, such as furnishings?

· Should a wetting agent be applied to the ceiling, walls, and floor?

· Should water with wetting agents be used in practical firefighting?

· Does the use of firefighting foam, when combined with other tactics, create a more efficient fire attack?

· Do wetting agents improve water efficiency, (surface tension reduction) when used on structure fires?

2. Complete an abstract, which is a one page well-organized and thoughtful narrative that will be an overall summary of the scenario-based case study course project on the apartment fire. This narrative should expand on what you have learned during the different parts covered in each unit so you can understand issues that exist within the fire behavior and combustion. Place the abstract after the title page followed by each unit’s essay.

3. The Final Project (entire scenario-based case study incorporating professor feedback from previous units) should include the following elements:

. title page;

. a 150-200 word abstract (See this   tutorial  for help in writing an abstract), which must be the first section of the paper (do not make it all background information; it should clearly state an overview);

. body with each unit’s essay using level one, level two, and level three headings as needed to separate and organize your paper into sections (See this   tutorial  for help with level headings);

. a one- or two-paragraph conclusion that recaps and summarizes all the essays; and

. a separate references page, listing all references used during the assignment.

As with all the other assignments, use APA guidelines. To supplement your discussion and support your conclusion, you should use information from the CSU Online Library from reputable, reliable sources, such as journal articles, case studies, scholarly papers, and other sources that you feel are pertinent. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations following APA guidelines. You must include all references used in each essay in alphabetical order on the references page.

NOTE: This assignment submission includes a computation of all your essays from Unit I through Unit VII. Your assignment will be graded according to the assigned rubric. By now, you should have corrected any discrepancies before compiling this final project. If you have made the corrections based on your professors’ feedback it will help you submit a quality project, and achieve an overall better review and grade.

Discuss the strengths of both the short- and long-term recovery plans implemented to protect the interest of all areas affected by the disaster.

This benchmark assignment assesses the following competency: 4.2 – Analyze the human, economic, and environmental issues involved in emergency planning, response, and recovery. 

Emergency planning must take into account both short- and long-term recovery. This can pose a particular challenge since specific long-term needs can vary tremendously depending on the scope and nature of the incident. While the ultimate goal is to help the community return to its predisaster state, that may not always be possible depending on the nature of the disaster. Regardless of circumstances, the government’s role is to assist in the reestablishment of order and ensure people’s daily lives and the economies of impacted areas can return to normal functioning as swiftly as possible. Once basic needs have been provided for in the immediate wake of disaster, emergency managers and officials are responsible for implementing long-term recovery plans.

For the Recovery section of your AAR (3-4 pages), research both the short- and long-term recovery efforts for your selected event. Analyze how effectively efforts of planning, response, and recovery promoted the return to predisaster levels of community, economic, and environmental functioning in the region.

1. Discuss the strengths of both the short- and long-term recovery plans implemented to protect the interest of all areas affected by the disaster. This includes the human, economic, and environmental aspects that may have been affected.

2. Discuss the weaknesses and challenges of both the short- and long-term recovery plans implemented to protect the interest of all areas affected by the disaster.

3. If there remains long-term recovery work to be done, explain the current state of the situation and summarize the most important issues that still need to be addressed.

4. Identify and discuss any political, legal, and faith-based issues that have affected the recovery process.

5. Provide your recommendations for improving short- and long-term planning processes in the area to promote quick and effective recovery, including economic recovery, from future emergency situations or disasters.

Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

How accurate is the graph of your ideology? Explain.

Part A-Although your curriculum ideologies may change over time and people can have more than one ideology, in this assignment you will use the Appendix: Curriculum Ideologies Inventory in the Curriculum Theory: Conflicting Visions and Enduring Concerns text, to analyze your own ideology of curriculum and instruction. Follow the directions exactly as they are presented in the appendix. Use the Sorting Form and Graphing Sheet to guide you. You will first rank each of four statements and transfer your responses from the inventory to the Sorting Form. Then use the Graphing Sheet to graph your data. Finally, read the “Interpreting the Results of the Inventory” section to determine which ideology is most like you. Write a 200-300 word reflection of this process.

Use the following questions to guide your reflection:

1. Which ideology did your graph reveal that you were most like? Least like?

2. Were there any other ideologies that were close to your identified ideology?

3. How accurate is the graph of your ideology? Explain.

4. Can you remember teachers in elementary, middle, high school, or college who taught in accordance to any of the ideologies in the inventory? Describe them.

 

 

Part B-Once you have concluded which ideology is most like your own beliefs, read the corresponding chapter to that ideology in the text:

Chapter 2: Scholar Academic Ideology

Chapter 3: Social Efficiency Ideology

Chapter 4: Learner Centered Ideology

Chapter 5: Social Reconstruction Ideology

You may want to refer to Chapter 6: A Comparative Overview of the Curriculum Ideologies, also.

Develop a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation on describing your ideology. As you read the chapter(s) that corresponds to your ideology, think about the meaning that this ideology gives to the following concerns and include them in your presentation: the central aims or purposes of education, the way learning takes place in schools, the role of the teacher during instruction and evaluation of students.

 

 

What stood out to you?

Brief You may attend a live sporting event or watch any event (2-hour minimum) on television. As you watch, pay close attention to all the sponsorship activation. This can be commercials, event signage, in-game features, sponsored broadcast segments, announcer mentions, or related social or digital promotions such as contests, hashtags, or other participatory activations. While you watch the sporting event, fill out the sponsor activation matrix provided. Once the matrix is full, evaluate what you saw, and think about the level of effectiveness of each of the sponsor messages.

• What stood out to you? • What was barely noticeable? • Was anything creative or unique? • Was there a lot of sponsorship clutter or were the sponsors easily recognizable? • Was there category exclusivity or overlap in the brands activating? • Do you think the activations had an impact?
