Nowadays, the studying of ethics has different faces. One can explore it through several prisms: either descriptive or normative, either metaethics or evolutionary one, etc. Frankly speaking, although each of these directions explores the same issues, the angles of view are rather different ones. What is more, many prominent scientists and researchers have devoted their professional efforts to prove the priority of certain positions. In this paper the position of Dutch primatologist and ethologist Frans de Waal will be thoroughly considered. To begin with, de Waal belongs to the researchers, the results of whose work are not the fruits ...

Summary

Distance education in higher learning institutions requires analysis from an equity perspective since the low-context online learning can lead to difficulties for high-context learners. The first section of the article reveals a framework for high- and low-context cultures which relies on cross-cultural communication. A lack of nonverbal communication characteristic of the low-context system can translate into cultural clashes in the educational environment. In the next section, the explorer states dimensions typical of high-context cultures and centers on regulating the group’s harmony via nonverbal means in collectivistic communication. A demand for openness ...

Historical research has demonstrated that "race" has dependably conveyed a bigger number of implications than negligible physical contrasts; without a doubt, physical varieties in the human species have no importance aside from the social ones that people put on them. Today researchers in many fields contend that "race" as it is comprehended in the United States of America was a social instrument created amid the eighteenth century to allude to those populaces united in frontier America: the English and other European pioneers, the vanquished Indian people groups, and those people groups of Africa acquired to give slave work. With ...

Environmental crimes include unregulated fishing, illicit trade of hazardous waste, smuggling of ODS (ozone-depleting substances), illegal logging, wild animal traffic, electronic waste management, as wee as dumping in rivers. Analytically, environmental crimes are sensitive and dangerous to the living things. Militant groups and criminal gangs profit from some ...

Discovery

The pigeonhole principle is a simple but powerful concept that is used in tackling combinatorial mathematics problems in a systematic manner. In simple terms, the principle states that if some objects need to be placed in boxes that are lesser in number than the objects, then at least one box will have two objects. The concept was formulated in 1834 by a German mathematician named Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet. In his original publication, Dirichlet used a German word that meant drawer in English (Brualdi, 2008). The word soon changed to pigeonhole that is an open space on a wall ...

The Asian American community has long been referred to as a “model minority" which is a term used to refer to non-white ethnic groups in the US and the perceived notion that they can to find success and adapt to the American way of life seamlessly.

Management Theories

Management Theories

Introduction: Overview of Management

Human beings will remain to be the most complicated assets to manage in an organization unless probably the day computers will think, feel, and learn to do things without human intervention. Until then, every manager needs a management concept that will assist him or her to manage these complex resources. Management refers to the process of locating, organizing, planning, leading, and exercising control over the workforce among other resources. Every manager needs to have the necessary skills in making decisions and resolving issues for him/her to be effective, efficient, and beneficial.

In essence, managers’ primary role is ...

Introduction

Nowadays, Math is comparatively accessible discipline to everyone, who is eager to master it, and has some basic logical skills. It is because of the wide range of contemporary textbooks, hundreds of helpful websites and numerous highly-qualified teachers and professors, who are not only acquainted with the discipline itself, but are also talented in the art of teaching. However, the situation was not so bright in the old times, when the books on Math could not have been comprehended by a common person. Moreover, many theoretical and practical issues still had not been resolved, which complicated the teaching process ...

This paper will focus on the basic details of my forthcoming project concerning the VEX robotics, which will allow students to apply their class knowledge in coming up with creative designs alongside generating more experience. Moreover, the project will include Innovation Diffusion Theory ( ...

Plantinga’s discussion considers science as a quasi-religion and justifies his assertion by observing that the former performs the cognitive function of the latter. In this regard, he argues that an individual’s beliefs regarding the world cannot be explained through natural selection unless such views affect their behavior. Plantinga advances three premises against science, one of which is that humans are incapable of making reliable beliefs. He also claims that natural selection has no ability to form true beliefs because it favors superior behaviors. Accordingly, he suggests that natural selection does not favor true non-adaptive beliefs over the ...

A digital image is a numerical representation of (usually binary) a two-dimensional image. It could be of the vector or the raster type. Normally, the phrase “digital image” refers to raster or bitmapped images. Raster images possess a fixed amount of digital values, which are called picture elements or pixels. Every image has a fixed number of rows and columns of these pixels. The pixels are stored in the memory of computers as raster images consisting of arrays of numbers. These are stored and transmitted in compressed formats (Sprawls, 2017). Computers are able to produce descriptive information about a ...

Video in Opera Stage

Introduction Advances in technology and the corresponding creation of digital technologies have significantly impacted the performing arts (Poole & Ho, 2011). Opera has not escaped the technological advancements and as such, new forms of opera have emerged in both digital and virtual formats (Symonds & Karantonis, 2013). Salter (2010) explains that since the 1990s, the scenography of opera has emerged with technological advancements transforming stages into video and monitor accompaniments. The obvious payoff is an enhanced experiential, virtual reality of the opera’s stage. The new technologies blur the lines between the opera’s stage and the motion picture common in ...

A state has been perceived as a vital component of social and economic development. Most people regard effective administration as a main agent in the implementation, as well as the formulation of development programs. In the 1950s, several developing countries embraced various mechanisms for delivering political and economic benefits to people. This led to the expansion of public administration (Shafritz, Russell, & Borick, 2015). Additionally, the States took a leading role in accelerating development. The theories of public administration also developed during this time. However, tracing the point at which theory and practice of public administration began is not possible. ...

Economic growth is depended on the availability of resources, mainly energy, finance, and economic planning. Rapid growth in the last one and half century was possible due to the availability of cheap and abundant fossil fuels (Heinberg 7). But the burning of fossil fuel has a negative effect on our environment because it causes the release of Green House Gases (GHGs) to the atmosphere. Higher concentration of GHGs traps heat in the atmosphere, causing global warming. Unrestraint rise in global temperature can cause melting of glaciers and rise in sea level submerging landmasses, changing weather patterns with frequent incidence ...

A chemist may be draw to the science because it contains physics and mathematics, with results clearly defined. On the other hand, biology can be messy, with fluids and disrupted bodies and patient suffering. For the nursing professional, there may be the temptation to define a physical process present in a patient as either biological or chemical. Technically, the definition for biology is simply the “scientific study of living organisms” (TheFreeDictionary.com), while chemistry is “a science that deals with the composition, structure, and properties of substances and of the transformations that they undergo” (Merriam-webster.com). However, the lines blur when ...

For understanding how the corn industry and the industry of water, I have interviewed with the marketing professionals from these two industries. Considering that marketing departments monitor the demand conditions, they can give us adequate information about their market.

Interviewer: What type of industry are you operating in? Marketing Professional 1: Producing corn requires using large lands, machinery, and knowledge of cultivating corn. Therefore, a company needs to have a high amount of financial resources to enter this market. Also, producing corn requires having the scientific knowledge for agricultural production. Changing climate and worse environmental conditions force us to ...

Economists tend to relate to the subject of research with scientific objectivity (Mankiw, 2015). They develop theories, accumulate evidence and then analyse them in an attempt to prove or disprove the theoretical concepts. The main tools of the economist (and other scientists) are theory and observation, but, in contrast to the natural sciences, in economics it is almost impossible to set up an experiment to confirm or deny a new concept. In order to somehow compensate for the absence of the possibility of carrying out laboratory experiments, economists are paying close attention to natural experiments offered by life. An ...

Benford's law also known as the first-digit law deals with the distribution of natural numbers in which it tends to major into their importance regarding significance. The law states that given any arrangement of natural numbers, the smallest number always seems to be the most significant while the largest number in the collection is always the least significant. Therefore, number 1 appears to be the most significant in any given combination of natural numbers 30% of the times. While on the other hand, number 9 appears only 5% of the times as the most significant number. The law states ...

Both the readings have a similar purpose and that is to explain what scientific research is and what its components are. Both of them are in the position to believe that science is not something that can be based on personal opinions; rather, it is based on evidence. Pring’s main argument is that the ontological dualism between quantitative and qualitative research are false (60). On the other hand, Chalmers strongly argues that in scientific research, the senses should be used objectively rather than subjectively (5). Both the scholars focus on scientific observation and how it should be done ...

Is Hand washing more effective in Infection Reduction versus Gel Hand Sanitizers?

Introduction

Today, the burden of health care-associated infections (HCAIs) are drawing attention not only from governments and health care regulatory bodies but also from patients and more so from health care practitioners (HCPs) themselves. This phenomenon is not merely because of the magnitude of the problem regarding the associated incidences of mortality, cost, and complexity of treatment, and morbidity, but also due to the growing recognition and understanding that, most of these complications are preventable. The medical fraternity is thus witnessing in tandem unprecedented improvements in the spread ...

Critical design/design fiction originates from graphic design authorship. Critical design utilizes design as a medium to display political, social, economic, and cultural issues. This approach has a close association to contemporary product design and is closely related to graphic design authorship, and the objects in critical design serve the function of acting as polemical actors. Besides, critical design consists of contemporary designers who have a critical attitude towards mainstream product design. These designers borrow from recent commercial design despite distancing themselves from it. Design fiction raises various themes in its agenda such as sexuality, technology, and genetics among others. ...

A Review of Literature

INTRODUCTION The United States has currently been struggling with a great deal of political warfare, social unrest and public protest from the inside and from terrorism, global criticism and immigration battles from the outside. There are so many issues that the subjects of debate seem endless. One of the most controversial and often debated issues today is gun control. There is no doubt that it is incredibly dangerous when offenders are armed when they commit crimes like burglary or in a car-jacking; more so when these offenders have every premeditated intent to kill. At the same time, not everyone ...

(15 points) Sociology is a social science that involves the systematic study of different human groups and their social behavior. Individuals study sociology just to gain basic knowledge while others understand it to apply various changes to the society like solving various problems. Sociology mainly applies the use of theories which are statements that attempt to explain, describe, and predict social events. Theories guide the ...

Psychology

Hypothesis: Intelligence is not genetically inherited. Intelligence has less to do with genetics than with the socio-cultural environment in which a person has grown. The rise of genetics gave people a chance to prove that intelligence is genetically inherited. However, deep studies suggest otherwise. It is the environment and availability of resources that shape the intelligence of an individual. If people who are considered non-intelligent, are provided the same educational opportunities and social environment, then their display of intelligence will be on par with other people who developed in the same environment. Turkheimer and co-researchers (623) in their article ...

Software engineering over the past decade has seen a tremendous drop in their level of professionalism. Risk factors associated with the decline in professionalism level are poor software qualities, a high cost of software development, failed deadline, poor implementation, poorly coordinated stages of software development, lack of proper staff motivation, and low return on investment. More surprisingly, a lot of unqualified and inexperienced software developers regularly are being hired to run software development at the expense of qualified software developer who has abandoned the industry and left to ruin.

How does the story of the Ugly Duckling in chapter four of the Pinkola Estes book relate to your OWN values, beliefs, experience and personal/professional understanding as a caring-healing, ethical nurse working with women? I find the story of the Ugly Duckling intriguing and extremely validating for me. The story stresses on not giving up no matter the situation you find yourself in, rather continue pressing on until you realize your goals (Estes, 1992). The story holds so much for me because it is about the journey of self-discovery. We are currently living in a world inhabited by an ...

All the nations of the earth both developed and developing countries has to deal and cope with the demands of the climate change. China is, therefore, not an exception. China has to deal with a wide range of climates from the tropics and deserts. Climate can be viewed in three dimensions, in that climate constraints economy and society, and the climate is a hazard and can bring about other disasters and hazards. In recent research, the Chinese culture has not yet developed as fast as other nations of the world though some argue that China had the start in ...

Stray Dogs: Issue and Solution

People and animals have had a historically controversial relationship. This led to the development of breeding farms and torturing animals in the name of science. Today, a much-contested thought revolves that animals have feelings and intelligence as well which makes them categorically as smart as human beings. As opposed to the thought that people have, animals are not only different on the basis of science and religion. However, today, in terms of globalization, overpopulation occurs not only within the human population but also animal one. Homeless dogs and their attacks on people are indeed local, but important problem, which ...

On Society and Gender Inequality in John vs. Jennifer

Central to the foundations of the governing principles that the Founding Fathers channeled while forming the Union was the desire for freedom and equality as the goals for the new government. Apparently, as opposed to the monarchical rule that the English Empire imposed on its American colonists, the latter supported democracy as the ideal form of governance for the masses. Case in point the peoples’ endorsement of the American Constitution that guaranteed a “[balance] of power” within the government and equality through “the nation’s size and diversity” (Foner 11). However, as evidenced by Congress’s agreement to maintain ...

Chapter 5

The Texas education system raised concern since the declaration of independence in 1836 following the failure of the government to begin the public education system. However, in late 1983, a constitutional amendment that advocated for the provision of bonds by the school fund was passed through voting. Currently, school funds generated an income of approximately $756 million dollars thus, making education facilities more available to the students (Champagne and Edward 16). The dropout rate is the indicator of the holding power of various schools in Texas during that period. Data indicates that 106 counties recorded a reduction in the ...

(the author’s name) (the institutional affiliation) Although the countries worldwide have been dealing with poverty issues for several decades this problem is still urgent. Even the international commitment to the problem has not lead to substantial progress in reducing poverty levels. As regards the United States, the recent statistics in poverty rate reveals 14.8% of the poor population amounting to 46.7 million (Bray & Schommer-Aikins, 2016, p. 579). Poverty is associated with individuals’ inability to sustain basic amenities which include decent access to adequate resources: food, clean water, housing, clothing, health services, and safety. Such deficiencies restrict human freedom ...

Question 1

The article focuses on the new archaeological findings which show that life in America could have started earlier than the time it is said to have started. The evidence of the charcoal collected from the two fire pits near the bottom layer of the soil and top rock, confirms the thought. It is however difficult to convince most of the people especially those that have been in the field of archaeology that it is true.

Question 2

The article does not tell the science behind the years they say life began in America. The lack of scientific proof is the reason ...
