Individual Learning Project Instructions The Individual Learning Project is an opportunity for you to evaluate yourself and your role within your organization by completing 10 self-assessment activities. You will begin the paper by completing a modified Abstract that details a past, present, or future job you will use as a basis for analyzing the self-assessment results. You will then write a full-page analysis of each assessment and combine all 10 together according to the provided format for submission at the end of the course. Each self-assessment must have at least 1 reference from your textbook to support your analysis and be cited according to current APA. You will find the Self-Assessment Activities in Connect.   These are the activities you must complete.

Fundamentals of Machine Learning Chapter Summary The book, “Deep Learning with Python” by François Chollet provides an introduction to the field of deep learning with the use of python language as well as the robust Keras library. Deep learning is presented as a form of artificial intelligence grounded on multiple layered neural networks. The book is organized into two parts with about nine chapters, in Chapters 8 and 9, which are “Generative deep learning” and “Conclusion,” which are one of the fascinating topics. Chollet provides a basic understanding of deep generative learning along with a conclusion to the ideas of machine learning. Chapter 8 focuses on the next generation with the use of LSTM and implementation of the “DeepDream.” Also, performing the transference of the neural style, the variational autoencoders, and a deep understanding of the functionality of the generative adversarial networks. On the idea of how the recurrent neural networks are utilized in the generation of data that is sequential, Chollet (2018) holds that it is not constrained to the artistic generation of content. It has been effectively utilized in…

Lifelong Learning Accounts Lifelong Learning Accounts, alias LiLAs, are a kind of education-savings accounts in which the employer matches the employee’s regular contributions. The employee can then use amount raised from the scheme to pay for educational programs to enhance their skills and hence, their employability. Jaeger et al (2017) states that this kind of a plan began in Maine and Washington states in 2005 and 2009 respectively. But it is its success in Washington that led to its codification in state statute. Jaeger (2017) adds that at the Federal level, LiLAs have enjoyed bipartisan support in the congress in the two instances congress debated LiLA bills. However, no enactment is in place in this regard at national level. Besides, America, a few other countries have implemented LiLA policies.  One such country is Singapore where according to Jaeger (2017) over 430,000 citizens have benefited from the program. Every Singaporean above 25 years is entitled to an individual learning account. Another such country is France, which instituted individual training accounts in 2015. The accounts enabled workers to pay for one day…

significance of the social and emotional learning Evidence The main idea from week 2 was the significance of the social and emotional learning and increasing the capacity of learning of the first-year doctorate students. From the article, the primary importance of studying social-emotional is to learn the social-economic learning skills that make the students care relationships better. The major disciplines of social, emotional learning include self-management, self-awareness, relationship skills, social awareness, and responsible decision making (“Developing Care and Socio-Emotional Learning in First-Year Doctoral Students: Building Capacity for Success,” 2018). However, other competencies such as the ability to embrace the perspectives of others, understanding one’s emotions, showing respect, and expressing empathy also contribute to social and emotional learning and building relationships. Additionally, the article states that it is essential for doctorate students to work together as a team on their research projects and courses. The students should have the ability to communicate and engage effectively with team members in actions that are supported by the social, emotional skills to boost their relationship. Self-motivation is a crucial element in social, emotional learning…

Collaborative school consultation CLASSMATE 1 Response to Cheryl Handy Hello Chery, I am much overwhelmed by how you articulated your ideas while describing collaborative school consultation.

Again, I must commend on your opinion towards today’s use of collaborative school consultation. Exceptionally, you opined that the method improves the students learning style in addition to meeting their needs. Importantly, I must support your advice towards collaborators that they must practice consistency to attain their goals.   Reference: Friend, M & Cook, L. (2017) Interactions:  collaboration skills for school professionals. Pearson.   Response to Nakera Cooper Hello Nakera, I must say that your idea relating to collaborative school consultation is nothing short of exceptional.

The social learning theory Introduction The social learning theory argues that it is the mediational processes which lie between the stimulus and response; influence our behavior and the way we act. When we witness a particular action, and then we star evaluating how we behave a child may be watching a movie of disciplinary and witness reinforcement for good behavior, they could like this reinforcement and therefore imitate this kind behavior. According to this theory, learning may occur through observing others, as role models.  We probably imitate people those who we are similar to, those in high status, individuals, and gender, supportive people. For instance, I imitate my father’s hobby by playing soccer and shaving like him. I watched my mother being rewarded as the best actor in USA. Through observation I developed interest and am now acting I want to be better than her according to social learning theory this is direct reinforcement. Indirect reinforcement is when someone is modelling out behavior with no intention. Since I was young I watched my mother washing the dishes. Currently I have…

Learning and Growth among Identical Twins Larsen, S. A., Byrne, B., Little, C. W., Coventry, W. L., Ho, C. S., Olson, R. K., & Stevenson, A. (2019). Identical Genes, Unique Environments: A Qualitative Exploration of Persistent Monozygotic-Twin Discordance in Literacy and Numeracy. Frontiers in Education, 4. https://doi.org/10.3389/feduc.2019.00021 In this article, Larsen et al. analyses the ambiguity that exists in the growth and learning outcomes among identical twins. Identical twins share the same genetic code and grow up in the same family, thereby sharing the same family-based aspect of nature, but still, the majority demonstrate distinguished development in growth and learning. Larsen et al. identified three unique environmental factors that contribute to extreme discordance among monozygotic twins. These included biomedical factors, personal differences, and school factors. Among the personal differences, factors included general personality differences as well as effort and motivation. Class allocation and peer were the school factors identified by Larsen et al. all these factors work in isolation or collaboratively to influence twins’ achievement trajectories.

The Impact of Technology on Academic Learning Introduction Advancement in technology is a reality we cannot ignore. Today’s learners are more technologically equipped, and hence it is inevitable to talk about effectiveness in learning without discussing the effect of digital technology on academic learning. Despite this, there have been concerns about the impact of some of the technologies of the efficacy of learning. However, there is no doubt that the computer era has brought a paradigm shift in the effectiveness of learning, especially in the aspects of content delivery, the advancement of interactive learning, and also the assessment of learners. Despite the advance in digital technology being heralded as the basis of current and future streamlining of learning systems, social networking has been identified as a significant reason for the failure of students to complete schoolwork timely and honestly. Therefore, it is vital to analyze how digital technology is being applied in learning institutions, its implications, and the future of academic learning in the digital era. The status of digital technology in the education sector             Technology has significantly advanced,…
