Chapter 5 Social Media and-Communication-Tools 1. Social media is a fairly new communication tool in the history of business. For people who grew up with Facebook, Twitter and other forms of talking to people electronically understanding how to use social media as a communication tool for a project is easier than for older people on a team. Social media seems like the opposite of face-to-face until a project member remembers that another person is on the other side of the message sent.

Child neglect and abuse are serious issues that may induce lasting adverse effects on the victims. In the US, nearly five kids die daily at the hands of abusers (Child Help, 2012). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2010), over 3 million cases of child neglect and abuse were filed in 2008. As the numbers continue to rise, however, the incidences reported in nursing appear to decline. In a review of cases of child mistreatment reported by healthcare providers, researchers mentioned that twenty-one percent of all suspected cases were never reported (Eads, 2013). Thus, child ...

Dementia is a package of signs and symptoms which include personality change, impaired intellectual functions, and memory loss which come as a result of trauma to the brain or disease (Godbolt et al.

There are numerous forms of dementia which include vascular and mixed dementia but Alzheimer’s disease happens to be the most common type (Mitchell 443). A person affected by dementia portrays a noticeable decline in remembering, learning, communication and problem-solving. Often, these changes ...

Parkinson’s disease lacks a cure but certain medicines can help manage the symptoms. These medications function to offer a substitute for dopamine, the signaling neurotransmitter in the brain. Carbidopa-levodopa is hitherto the most effective medicine to manage Parkinson’s disease. This chemical moves to the brain and is converted to dopamine. The chemical levodopa is mixed with carbidopa preventing it from being converted to dopamine prematurely out of the brain hence potential side effects such as nausea are lessened. Potential side effects with this medication however include orthostatic hypotension or feeling light headed and nausea. With continued use ...

Shakespeare’s tragedies are based on the culmination of the recklessness of his protagonists. For example, suspicion was the major cause of Othello’s downfall; Pride was the cause behind King Lear’s tragedy. As said by Aristotle, the protagonist’s weakness is the major reason for the tragedy to happen in the play. Shakespeare’s plays are based on the concept of Aristotle’s tragedy. The tragic hero according to Corrigan (206) is the good man who faces trouble due to his errors or shortcomings. The shortcomings or errors are the real motivators behind the action of the ...

As many of you may have noticed, after our successful resistance against Mr. Frederick and his band of hooligans, Boxer, our most dedicated, faithful and hard-working colleague and community presence has been absent from the farm. The reasons for his absence are a direct result of his heroic but unsuccessful efforts to save the windmill. Indeed, during the battle, Boxer was injured. While we were able to heal most of injuries, there were some that we were not able to get supplies for. As a result, he was never able to return to his previous form. Several days earlier, ...

“Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it”,. Often we witness the term ‘professionalism’ being used to describe a wide range of skills, attitudes and behaviors; thus creating confusion. In order to eliminate such confusion, it is rather important to understand what professionalism really means and how to practice it. The crux of an array of formal and informal definitions illustrating professionalism is that the term refers to the specific skills, qualities and conduct required by a certain occupation. Although brief and vague, this definition efficiently captures the comprehensive nature of the term. ...

Many literary critics and scholars consider Franz Kafka to be a troubled man. His writing is drenched in depression, oppressions and violence. It creates a sense of helplessness and accepting the miseries of life, as fighting them is futile. However, it extremely difficult to label the novelist in absolute terms. Perhaps it is more accurate to consider Kafka a mystery instead of a sad hermit. Kafka was not creating fiction to sell books. In fact he remained almost an unknown author during his lifetime. On his death bead he told his friend to destroy his stories as he did ...

PSYCHOLOGY

International research guidelines require that “children provide assent for participation” in a recent studies and “their parent’s consent” (Baines 960).

It has been posited that relying on both child’s assent and the parent’s consent is unethical because it can affect the relationship between the child and the parent. Therefore, based on the evidence provided, it ...

Exam Questions

Paper Due Date Why Major Organizational Change Fail? Organizations and individuals are subject to numerous factors, which influence decisions and actions, taken in a given external environment. While many contemporary organizations already understood that responsiveness and flexibility are the key to success and sustainable development, a lot of them still fail in their change efforts. Kotter (2002) argues that people and organizations fail not because they are incompetent or unemotional, but because they do not have an opportunity to experience a highly successful change. The point made in this work is that people tend to be extremely resistant to ...

The U.S. Bill of Rights The Bill of Rights was proposed and passed through twelve amendments but only ten were successfully ratified and became part of the United States Constitution, which was at first considered incomplete because it lacked what proponents called the basic human rights. The common belief at that time was that the framing and ratification of the Bill of Rights was to eliminate fears of the Anti-Federalists that the proposed Constitution did not satisfactorily guarantee individual freedoms. Even if individual liberty was important during the debate for the bill of rights, the Bill of Rights was ...

White collar crime is the subject that is not widely covered in mass media and is often made public only in cases when it is necessary for some political purposes. However, such little attention to it does not make white collar crime and its consequences less significant and less worth studying. Moreover, modern technologies and the Internet, in particular, have equipped white collar criminals with new and more effective means of achieving their ill-intentioned goals. A click of a button may not only allow criminals to steal millions or billions of dollars in a second, but it can greatly ...

The article by Marceta Reilly “Getting Genuine Commitment for Change” (2015), discusses several responses of employees in the education area to the changes proposed by leaders: principals and coaches. The author of the article argues that it is natural to react to new initiatives and practices with resistance and be reluctant to accept innovation. The reason, according to Reilly (2015), is that people feel secure and comfortable when doing their job in customary ways, and are alarmed when changes affect these traditional ways, which they are accustomed with. Often they do not see a need to change anything in ...

Literature is the reflection of the contemporary society. Early 20th century was generally known as the modernist era in art and literature. The contemporary society was majorly affected by the fatality of World War I and World War II. During the period, the whole generation had become very pessimistic about everything. They were trying to find the meaning of life and their existence due to the political situations and horrified incidents such as holocaust, concentration camps, and the drop of nuclear bombs on Japan. The feeling of nothingness, futility is very strong in contemporary English literature. The literature of ...

Personal Reflection:

Abstract Cultural bias is a condition that can have great effect upon the education of a student. In Canada it has been seen that while immigrants are quite welcome and even encouraged to settle within the provinces, they are still seen as second-class in several ways. Two of those ways involve their place in education and their cultural identities. While Canada is renowned for its acceptance of many various races and peoples, it is not as well known for its quiet assimilation of its immigrants into the Canadian culture. Immigrants are not paid as much, do not always receive ...

DD Month YYYY Datasil, a Canadian distribution firm specializing in sale of computer and electronic equipments was apparently bought by the US firm with a carefully planned strategy to access the Canadian Market.

Every Tuesday morning people would always be seen trekking towards the direction of the sunrise with their bags and some with cartons. To a visitor in the village, he or she would be confused and would think that the usual long line of people was going closer to the sun just to stare at its beauty. In the village, every morning the sun would always be seen up in the sky with beautiful horizon before it turns wild. None would be seen wasting time in the way as every footpath was marked in the same direction. Other paths in ...

Many energy companies begin from a humble background of marketing their products without any plan for further development. However, to reach a certain point in growth, they must embrace branding proactively. Overlooking this important step towards marketing would result in stagnation in growth. Ovo Energy is an energy supplying company through buying and selling electricity and gas to domestic properties (Bessant and Tidd 429). Creating the right image of the Ovo Energy through branding will be so fundamental in generating a market in Cairo. Branding must, therefore, satisfy the following characteristics: innovative, customer loyalty, quality products, and good design ...

There is a wide accepted concept that after centuries of development, the Muslim world began to decline in the 15th century. Did it really decline? In this work I would like to illustrate the main trends of developments of the Muslim world in early 15 – early 20 century. We know that in part of the second millennium, and for five centuries later there were many Asian invasions in other regions of the world, wide expansion (Seljuk, Arab, Turkish). But then the stagnation began. Since the "golden age" of the Abbasid Empire, it has not changed territorially. And large areas ...

A leader has the mandate to develop a vision that is compelling as well as a strategy for achieving the vision. To achieve a vision, a leader must organize both the material and human resources. Excellent performance of a given organization does not result as an accident but rather as a product of visionary leadership of that particular organization. When a vision has been drafted, the leadership work to ensure it is achieved within the stipulated time. For that justification, it is prudent for an institution to have strategic leadership for the achievement of its strategic vision. Apart from ...

While it appears to be an opinion article about media productions that generated specific trends about confused gender identity, sexuality or race, Wesley Morris’ New York Times article “The Year We Obsessed over Identity” raises complex social concerns and voices personal preconceptions. Morris criticizes the 21st century gender shift that saw the transformation of women in breadwinners, as portrayed in “The Intern” comedy, while also harshly rebuking the transgender phenomenon popularized across media, and the racial shedding that allows whites to turn into blacks. The tone of the article is very condemnatory, as the author is blaming the social ...

Psychology

Introduction The use of Null Hypothesis Significance Testing as a statistical tool for research methods in psychology became a center of debate because of the perceived errors, which was associated to the misuse of the method and erroneous conclusion in some of the published scholarly journals. Many scholarly journal publishers particularly those that are specialized in the field social psychology suggests to ban the use of NHST and the Basic and Applied Social Psychology (BASP) acted upon on this call. On the other hand, proponents of NHST argue that the problem is not with the technique, but with the ...

List of References: 12 Literature Review Principle of Equivalence Background Usually, whenever a property is purchased or acquired from a willing or non-willing seller, it is expected that a fair compensation is given to those whose interests are deprived. However, it may be difficult to determine what a fair compensation constitutes. In some cases claimants may receive more or less compensation compared to the value of their property. In other instances, the monetary sum provided may be a huge sum, but it may not cover non-quantifiable losses such as psychological and social implications. As experience has shown, there are ...

Two reasons why users are avoiding Windows 8

Users are avoiding Windows 8 due to the overlapping of Aero User and Metro interface. It is difficult and complicated for a user to switch between desktop applications and metro applications making windows eight not user-friendly, as it creates a lot of confusion for the developers and the users. Another reason is that Windows 8 provides no possible way to turn home screens into icons. The Start screen looks garbled when many apps are installed.

Recommend at least one cause of action that Microsoft can take to address these concern and reason

Some philosophers also had this belief that every individual has an inner voice, which can never encourage you to do anything wrong. However, it is necessary to listen to the same extremely attentively. They refer this inner voice as the voice of ...

Visual Literacy: Thomas Hoepker 9/11 Photograph

According to Liu, the rapid advancement of science and technology is influencing significant transformation in human communication systems (1259). The visual element of communication is now being utilized widely with images, color, and other multimodal resources being used for more than entertainment and illustration (Harrison 46). Visual messages are being used to convey significant meaning (Liu 1259). The visual culture is becoming popular due to its ability to communicate instantly and universally via the Internet (Bamford 2). As such, people should be able to decode and interpret the various visual images that are exposed to them every day to ...

Central to Nathaniel Hawthorne’s writing of The Birthmark is the unexplained mark that was on “Georgiana’s left cheeka little [similar] to the human hand, though of the smallest pygmy size” (Hawthorne par.7). Initially, the mark had brought Georgiana much admiration with some lovers asserting that the impression on her face was subject to a “fairy” whose tiny hand had somehow landed on the woman’s cheek when she was young (par. 7). The problem is, Aylmer, who happens to the story’s protagonist and Georgiana’s husband, fails to see the appeal of such a mark on ...

In a globalized world, it seems as though culture shock is inevitable. Essentially, people “encounter culture shock whenever they uproot themselves from a familiar setting and move to an unfamiliar one,” (Ting-Toomey & Chung, 2011, p. 93). With millions of people traveling as tourists, finding work in other countries, and students studying outside of their homeland, culture shock is an experience that will ultimately affect so many. For some scholars, what it really boils down to is how a person handles their culture shock, and how their reaction to culture shock will affect their ability to adapt to a new ...

A flag is a special representation and a Brandmark of a country. It plays an imperative function of uniting a nation. It is an important and emotionally connecting symbol that represents the sovereignty state of a nation to the world and to its bearers. The Brandmark of a country’s flag should be simple and instantaneously recognized and distinctive from other flags that represent other nations (Dittmar, G. 2016). The idea of New Zealand flying a flag that bears the Union Flag as a component of its outline is a matter of concern particularly because the nation’s interests ...

A trademark is a legally binding emblem, logo, or name on goods or services that uniquely identify to a specific company. As the Chief Operations Officer of Boca Raton Sports Holdings, I decided to pick “Boca Raptors” as the new team name. The name “Boca” on the team name emanates from Boca Raton, the locality of the Basketball team and “Raptors” is derived from the fact that Florida is a Birds paradise with over 500 species in existence. However, we are not just any birds we are the raptors- birds of prey who feed on rival football teams. The ...
