2. Robert has a learning disability in reading. He is overwhelmed by long reading passages because he cannot read at grade level. Robert needs to learn about the main idea and supporting details. The teacher provides Robert with a story on his reading level. Robert only has to identify the main idea, while the rest of the class must identify the main idea and supporting details. Is this an example of an accommodation or modification? What is another to address this student’s needs?
3. You and your principal are reviewing your classes’ DIBEL scores, which have improved since the beginning of the year but aren’t up to grade level. She reminds you that you are working in a “Blue Ribbon School” and tells you to “correct the scores.” After assuring her that other assessments indicated that students had made significant progress and that the DIBELS scores would only be part of the bigger picture. The principal makes it clear by saying, “You need to go back and retest the students, making sure to mark the correct answers.” What do you do?
4. Mr. Houdini is a teacher at Javier High School. He has just finished conducting an online class and one of his students, Winston, requests extra time after class to talk to Mr. Houdini.  Winston has had a close mentoring relationship with Mr. Houdini. He trusts him. Winston confesses that he is coming out and is concerned that he will be bullied and taunted by other students. He is also worried that his parents will not understand. Winston asks for Mr. Houdini’s guidance. What should Mr. Houdini do? 
5. Sydney Middle School has a Special Education program. Ms. Anderson writes an email to all the program’s parents (and caretakers). When sending the email, she puts all the parent emails on the same line, with none of them as a blind carbon copy (BCC). Parents can therefore see other parents’ email addresses – and thus, possibly identify other students in the program. Ms. Anderson’s principal asks for a conference with her after receiving an angry email from one of the parents. Should Ms. Anderson be concerned? Why or why not? 

Identify and describe your own cultural background as the basis of cultural comparison.

I will provide a link to a news story on who i am doing the cultural interview about. all information will be provided via the link provided.Your reflection summary should cover all major points listed below (in this order):1. Identify and describe your own cultural background as the basis of cultural comparison.a) Provide a brief introduction of how you met the interviewee and the interviewee’s demographic information, such as age, education, family, or occupation.2. Describe BOTH similarities and differences between your own culture and her/his culture. Use the course concepts to guide your analysis (i.e. elements and dimensions of culture).a) For example: similarities and differences can be in diet, attire, etiquette, government, education system, religion, family structure, etc.3. Culture theory; briefly describe where your interviewee’s culture is situated on each of the six Hofstede cultural traits. Start by running a country comparison on the Hofstede site as a basis for this section: a) Power Distance (high versus low), b) Individualism versus Collectivism (individualist versus collectivist), c) Masculine versus Feminine** (**Note the names on this cultural dimension usually misleads students, since they are outdated and mean something different than what most assume. Cultures with high ‘masculine’ scores tend to prefer achievement, ambition, power, and assertiveness over tender values such as quality of life and compassion for the weak. High scoring masculine cultures foster distinct and complementary gender roles. This means that men and women tend to have separate roles in society and are expected to differ. For instance, men are expected to be assertive, tough, and focus on material success, whereas women are expected to be modest and tender, and focus on improving the quality of life for the family. Cultures scoring highly ‘feminine’, gender roles are flexible. Men and women do not necessarily have separate roles, and they can switch their jobs while taking care of the family. Cultures with high feminine scores care more about quality of life, service, and nurturing family/community, and those values are embraced by both men and women in society.)d) Uncertainty Avoidance  (high versus low), e) Long-term Orientation, and f) Indulgence versus Restraint. Your interpretation/analysis of each dimension must start with Hofstede’s description of the concept (the theory).Next, you must incorporate your supporting evidence by linking the theory to your observations from your interview. This means that you will consider what your interviewee told you about her/his culture and see whether it aligns with what the theory describes.Then do your own analysis after you have reflected on your interview experience.Remember to run a comparison of your two countries using Hofstede’s data by running a comparison of the two countries ( This section of your paper should be your summary analysis of similarities/differences:Think about what your interviewee told you about her/his culture and suggest how the interviewee’s culture is relatively lower or higher on Hofstede’s cultural dimensions compared to your own culture.4. Finally, provide at least two recommendations for handling cultural differences and interacting with people of your interviewee’s culture at work or while conducting business.

Examine the spread of Islam and Christianity throughout Africa and Eurasia from each religion’s place of origin, and how each religion spread as well as how each religion changed as it was adopted by people from different cultural backgrounds.

 INTRODUCTION
Christianity and Islam are the two largest religions in the world and have influenced the art, politics, and culture of societies around the globe for the last 1,500 years.

What are the effects of attention on out-of-seat classroom behavior?

 
Some questions in Part A require that you access data from Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics. This data is available on the student website under the Student Test Resources link.
 
 
 

For the following research questions, create one null hypothesis, one directional research hypothesis, and one nondirectional research hypothesis.
 

What are the effects of attention on out-of-seat classroom behavior?
Research Hypothesis: There will be a relationship between the effects of attention on out-of-seat classroom behavior versus in-seat-classroom behavior.
 

What is the relationship between the quality of a marriage and the quality of the spouses’ relationships with their siblings?
Null Hypothesis: There will be no relationship in the relationship between the quality of a marriage and the quality of the spouses’ relationship with their siblings.

What is the best way to treat an eating disorder?
One Directional Research Hypothesis:
 

Provide one research hypothesis and an equation for each of the following topics:
 

The amount of money spent on food among undergraduate students and undergraduate student-athletes
 

The average amount of time taken by white and brown rats to get out of a maze

The effects of Drug A and Drug B on a disease
 

The time to complete a task in Method 1 and Method 2
 

Why does the null hypothesis presume no relationship between variables?
 

Create a research hypothesis tested using a one-tailed test and a research hypothesis tested using a two-tailed test.

What does the critical value represent?

Given the following information, would your decision be to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Setting the level of significance at .05 for decision making, provide an explanation for your conclusion.
 

The null hypothesis that there is no relationship between the type of music a person listens to and his crime rate (p < .05).
In Hypothesis Testing, we typically deem a research hypothesis to be significant, if the odds of two means actually being equal are no greater than 1 in 20 or .05 (5%) or less.
 

The null hypothesis that there is no relationship between the amount of coffee consumption and GPA (p = .62).
 

The null hypothesis that there is a negative relationship between the number of hours worked and level of job satisfaction (p = .51).
 

Why is it harder to find a significant outcome (all other things being equal) when the research hypothesis is being tested at the .01 rather than the .05 level of significance?
At the .01 level, there is less room for error because the test is more rigorous.
 

Why should we think in terms of “failing to reject” the null rather than just accepting it?

When is it appropriate to use the one-sample z test?
 

What similarity does a z test have to a simple z or standard score?
 

For the following situations, write out a research hypothesis:
 

Bob wants to know if the weight loss for his group on the chocolate-only diet is representative of weight loss in a large population of middle-aged men.

The health department is charged with finding out if the rate of flu per thousand citizens for this past flu season is comparable to the average rate of the past 50 seasons.

Blair is almost sure that his monthly costs for the past year are not representative of his average monthly costs over the past 20 years.
 

There were about 15 flu cases per week, this flu season, in the Oshkosh school system. The weekly average for the entire state is 16 and the standard deviation, is 2.35. Are the kids in Oshkosh as sick as the kids throughout the state?

Identify and describe at least four  individual project risks.

Competency
In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competency:

Plan a project according to project management best practices

Scenario
You have been hired as a project manager for a software company, ABC  Solutions. Their business development team has received a product  request from a new client, XYZ Financial Services. They need a custom  software solution to streamline some workflows and processes that will  be implemented in their offices worldwide. Your company has developed a  similar software solution, but the client requires additional features  and customization. The new software needs to be ready for a test run at  two of the offices in about six months and worldwide rollout in another  three months. Your boss, the project director, has asked you to manage  this product development project.
ABC Solutions uses the traditional waterfall method for software  development. The proposed project schedule should include the following  major tasks: determine the software requirements, design, code test,  system test, address issues with software, and deliver the prototype.  You have been asked to assemble a team with the skills and expertise to  perform these tasks.
Before initiating the project, you, the project director, and a  software architect meet with the IT director and product manager of XYZ  Financial Services to understand their requirements. They explain that  the custom software should include three new features, five feature  customizations, and a new interface design to match the client’s brand  colors and logo.
Later, you and some key team members analyze the scope and  requirements to arrive at some critical decisions and conclusions. These  have been summarized in two project documents:
You will need to choose and allocate resources from the following  available team members: a user interface (UI) designer, UI developers, a  software architect, technical team leads, software developers, and  software testers. You will also have access to two team members from the  development team of the original software, who will act as consultants  for your team. However, these members are only available part time since  they are also busy on other projects.
Directions
Project PlanningUse the information from the  scenario, including the project charter and effort estimates, to create a  single file that includes the following components: stakeholder  register, risk register, work breakdown structure (WBS), and  responsibility matrix. You can also make reasonable assumptions to help  you complete these tasks. But, be sure to explain your assumptions.  Address each of the tasks outlined below.

Stakeholder register: Identify and list the stakeholders for this project. Ensure it includes the following details: 

Their names
Their role in the project
Their influence on the project and its outcomes

Risk register: Identify and describe at least four  individual project risks, including the risks identified in the project  charter. The register should include the following details for each  risk: 

The description of the risk
The probability the risk may occur
The impact the risk can have on the project
The response plan if the risk occurs
The person responsible for handling the risk
The status of the risk

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS): Create a WBS and  Networking Diagram for the project. It should include the major  milestones and all tasks arranged in the order they should be completed  in the project. Also, be sure to indicate any dependencies between  tasks.
Responsibility Assignment Matrix: Create a  responsibility matrix with a responsible, accountable, consulted, and  informed (RACI) chart that shows how the tasks in the project are  assigned to the respective team members. Also, include a RACI chart for  all stakeholders you identified earlier.

Provide a brief description of it. Include things like where it is housed, who created and maintains it, what kinds of information it contains, what subject in the Humanities it covers (art, music, history, religion, literature, languages, theater, film, etc.)  
Examine and describe how the information is presented. For instance, do you have to use a search engine? Are there subject guides? Does it use a mapping tool?   
Point out any difficulties you had navigating the information or any particularly well-designed features for the user.  

Q#2:
This week, the text readings include a discussion of inflation. While you are already familiar with the basics of inflation, do read the text with care, as it gives you useful fuller detail on the relationships between money supply, monetary policy, and inflation.
But at the moment, the world isn’t facing any meaningful inflationary pressure. But there are numerous signs of potential deflation. And that has several central banks nervous.
However, we rarely discuss deflation in economics courses. The last time it happened in the US was during the Great Depression. Japan dealt with deflation during the 1990s and off and on since then. China has come close, but central bank actions seem to have prevented it. And now the Euro Zone is facing possible deflation to which the European Central Bank has finally started to respond.
This week, explore the causes of deflation, why it is considered to have negative consequences for an economy, and how it can be prevented or stopped once started. Is there a linkage between inflation and deflation?
Do respond to all of these parts so as to provide a complete picture.
Following are some recent articles from The Economist, which should be helpful. You will, of course, want to do additional research.
