Video games and Strategic Thinking Thousands of parents everyday complain about their kids being hooked up on videogames, but not all games are bad. In some cases, video games help develop strategic thinking in children, teens and even adults. The audience of interest are teachers as well as parents who might want to know whether playing video games is helpful to the students. It consists of adults aged between 25 to 60 years. Most of them are males of varying occupations including Information Technology professionals, engineers, teachers, soldiers, and mathematicians. It is important to focus on this group since it is made up of people with influence in the community. Having them understand the impact of video games on people’s way of thinking is important as it helps them influence other society members. According to me, the target group will respond more to logic appeals. This is because most of them are professionals who like to base their arguments on logic rather than on emotions. The topic of interest is whether playing video games helps practice strategic thinking. Since…
Professional writer identity How my identity as a writer and understanding of the process of writing composition have developed during the unit? Composition writing has been a process of development from the idea that is bubbling in mind and putting it on paper (Barkhuizen,2016). At my early stage, I had a bad language and low command of vocabulary. I had no idea how sentences should be constructed and an idea to be developed and be clear to the audience. I have learned how to develop an easy to be readable by my audience. The writing art is very comprehensive, whereby you have to put the reader in mind on what should be easier for them to mauver and have a point clear for themselves without being interpreted by a third party. Having the reader in mind as you write, the composition draws the mind and puts a clear picture of the content that the readers are up to. I have learned that when the point is clear for the reader, it is important for them to have the key points…
An Underlying Issue: Police Stress In all societies, everyone expects the police to sustain the status quo by preventing crime, maintaining social order, and apprehending criminals. Naturally, the nature of policing expects the law enforcers to confront citizens in serious cases and conflicts. The type of job exposes police to harshness, physical violence, and hostility. The confrontation necessitates the law enforcers to involve themselves in urgent and high-pressure situations. Policing is among the professions that require individuals to deal with potential risks and subsequently put their own lives in danger. Thus, the nature of the police job exposes the law enforcers to work-related stress. Police Stress Stress plays a significant part in the lives of every individual. Police officers often experience stressful situations in the course of their work. Most studies deem policing as among the handful of vocations that require the employees to constantly deal with potential risks, thereby putting their lives in adverse situations. Police work-related stress affects professionals negatively. For example, law enforcers are exposed to an increased level of mental and physical health troubles that suppress…

Philosophy and Gender Gender, sex, and sexuality are described as a special arrangement by which society transforms biological sexuality into human activities. Clerk suggests that the relationship between social gender, biological sex, and sexual attraction are mere cultural products. In this case, gender is described as the social product that can be attached to the philosophies of biological sex. In a diverse modern culture, there is an assumption that everyone is heterosexual. That is, one can be attracted to a woman if they are men and vice versa unless otherwise stated. Most individuals make assumptions concerning the way people should be acting in social life as well as the kind of persons they should get attracted to. This is purely based on their opinion on the superficial bodily outlook that is normally presumed to bear the representation of the biological sex characteristics. Clerk raised questions on biological determinist arguments that claimed that every individual recognized as female at their births would have to be recognized as women and hence draws the attraction of men. In relation to the biological determinist…
The involvement of ladies in development projects Background of the Study The involvement of ladies in development projects has been a significant concern in all nations, due to ignored gender relations in both the practice and hypothesis of development (Brohman, 2016). In this case, women have methodically been shut out of the different stages of development – this had led to the perception that they are impediments to growth (Parpart, 2013). A study conducted by (Stephen 2013) on Women’s rural mobilizations in Latin American showed that women were politically neglected and almost excluded in active participation in development activities. Previous studies, however, have revealed the potential of women in developing appropriate ways that enable them to handle their challenges and concerns via local participation in expansion projects, especially agriculture and small scale businesses (UN, 2011). According to Chalchissa & Emnet (2013), the economic participation of women is also narrow and primarily limited to domestic work and low paying menial jobs in the formal economic sphere. Despite all the hardship they face, their valuable contribution has never been calculated in the…
Research Questions and Interview Guide Research Question The purpose of this study is to discover, understand and give an analysis of conflict management at a non-profit organization in San Francisco, on their readiness for low-income jobs. In response to these question, after an examination of my field notes, I noticed the following themes were vital in the non-profit organization; time and conflict management. The reason for my choice of question is the number of participants who responded to the question of conflict management. Interview Guide The group is made up of mixed people in terms of ages, race and ethnic background. All the participants seemed to have encountered a situation where they were conflicted in one way or the other except for two who chose not to participate. Even though they all reacted positively, they somehow wanted to respond in the opposite direction. The main aim of the interview is to understand the number of people that have ever been to a situation of conflict and how they reacted and dealt with it. I am trying to understand how…
