Quality School-Agee Environments Introduction School-age is the age through which children prepare to start attending school. School-age children deserve quality environments that enhance their development. School-age environments are defined as environments that contain context and spaces in which children learn and grow. Watching school-age children grow and develop is the most important period in a child’s life. A child’s environment plays a major role in their development, both physically and psychologically. During this period, a child becomes very sensitive to the environment through which they are being exposed. Both indoor and outdoor environments play a vital role in shaping the life of a child. Positive environments for the school-aged provide them with greater opportunities to improve on their social skills as a result of interaction with their environments (“IRIS | Early Childhood Environments,” n.d.). Good environments include classrooms, dining rooms, playgrounds, spaces for caregiving, and an outdoor environment. A child’s home is also a part of the environment. Positive environments are linked with the success of the children and create positive impacts compared to the adverse effects. First, a good…
Ethical Case Study The health care profession exposes practitioners to a myriad of moral dilemmas, lead them to struggle to choose between right and wrong courses of action (Zahedi et al., 2013). Often, such situations compel them to make hard decisions in their effort to enhance good. For instance, the ethical case mentioned above denotes an incident of a scarcity of the influenza vaccine in a rural county. The situation poses a risk to the health of the residents. The crisis obligated the county health department to issue a directive compelling health care providers to prioritize the vaccination of pregnant women and elderly of American descent. However, the continual exposure of the health care staff to the virus in their endeavor to administer the vaccine to patients signals elevated their risk of acquiring the infection and transmitting it onto their family members. This situation led one practitioner to consider taking some of the vaccines home to administer to his loved ones, hence fostering the emergence of an ethical dilemma. The patients in the case display various needs and desires. The…
Engineering Sustainability – Boeing Case Study The concept of sustainability relates to meeting the current human needs without compromising the ability of future generations to be able to meet their needs with the available resources (Diwekar, 2015 p.15). Although the concept of sustainability majorly emanates from conservationism and social justice, it remains one of the most significant objectives for human development and activities. Sustainable development has increasingly become a goal upon which various nations across the world aspire. Just as in all the other aspects of construction, engineering activities contribute immensely to the economic development, thus the need to fall within the confines of sustainable development. For instance, engineering, particularly electronics engineering, uses various resources to drive much of economic activities across the world (Diwekar, 2015 p.8). Therefore, there needs to be adequate consideration of the sustainability criteria when it comes to the selection of resources in engineering as a measure of good stewardship. In engineering, sustainability is viewed as a comprehensive concept that involves the sustainable utilization of engineering concepts and systems (Diwekar, 2015 p.12). Therefore, sustainable engineering does…
how an aspect of your life has influenced the way you use English Without a doubt, English is the language with the highest number of speakers in the whole world. According to research, it is spoken by one person in every group of four people. Despite the high number of speakers, different factors may influence a person to talk to English. This paper examines the aspects of life that have influenced the way a person speaks the English language. Culture Most of the people do not understand there is a very close connection between the English one speaks and the culture. In every culture, there are overtones that a person is not usually able to erase from the English they learn. These overtones vary from one country to another based on what the culture entails. The reason for culture to be a leading factor is because the culture is expressed through the language. The ascent that a person adopted in their first language cannot be done with; despite a person speaking some good English, the accent of their…

Organizational complexity defines different organizational entities differ while an organizational structure is a reflection of the mechanism of how different organizational goals can be achieved (through departments that serve varied purposes). Formalization, on the other hand, describes the organizational approach to the assigning of duties, responsibilities, roles, and procedures to different employees. Formalization includes the transfer of responsibilities from the top leadership to employees’ employees at different hierarchical levels. Finally, centralization describes the degree at which decisions are made at the higher organizational units. In the case of H& H, the organizational strategy is derived from the vision created by Mr. Blake during the startup.

By doing so, he would not only provide optimal services but also make his customer`s satisfied. To…

Film Paper: Analysis of Traditions in Film and Depictions Educational Issues Cultural practices in the educational system remain auspicious in contemporary society despite institutional and national reforms (Bowles & Gintis, 1976, pg. 95). Even though theories, philosophy, and quality ethical norms outlined by critics exist in the education sector, minimal practical follow-ups ensue. Through conservative, progressive, and critical policy perspectives, the behaviour of learners within public schools composed of different classes develops. Notably, several traditions such as privilege, class or race biasness, inequality, and struggles of identity dominate the sector from the previous centuries. However, education remains one of the ‘cornerstones’ of moral integrity in the society of adults. My essay outlines a critical analysis of the film “The Karate Kid (1984)” by John Avildsen using the course concepts and readings. Theorist John Dewey’s view on the teaching and learning depicted in the movie As stated in Bowles and Gintis (1976), Dewey classifies the moral teaching and learning portrayed in the film as of democratic school of character shaping. Since the education system functions to streamline societal policies, a multiracial…
