Final Paper (For Hifsa Shakaut)
Write a 12 page final paper on Richard Florida pillar call ?Empower Cities and Communities. Paper should be in 12 fonts, Time Romans, double space, in-text citation. You can use different references. Also I have attached a few pages from the book that discuss Richard Florida’s pillars about Empower Cities and Commuities. Assignment: Analyze both short and long-term opportunities the public health and economic crisis and recovery presents for us to address each of the ?Empower Cities and Communities pillar you are assigned to. To what extent can the public health and economic response over the next few years (the current short-term stimulus packages and future, budgeting and investments) present opportunities to address the underlying causative problems that resulted in Florida’s pillars ?Empower Cities and Communities? Since the epidemiology experts strongly suggest that this may be only the first of what might be three waves of the disease through 2022 when they hope to have a vaccine, factoring in the possibility that the virus could still mutate. Consider respective government roles through the lens of the FEMA model in which feds provide resources (and we are talking a lot!), states decide distribution of those resources, locales make the implementation decisions. Also consider the trade-offs in terms of increasing the national debt and redistributing money and resources from other areas of the budget, including from the military, and what implications can you infer in terms of health care policy for the entire country. Would the return on investment offset a future national debt? Encapsulating the other course themes, for the pillar ?Empower Cities and Communities what are the implications to immigration, eminent domain (will that be exercised more for public benefit purposes?) and land use, technology (communication, transportation, etc.) and megalopolis growth (or not). Since this is a rapidly evolving situation, you might want to think about making some assumptions about where it is going, and do a couple of different alternative scenarios, one that shows modest progress on the pillars; another that shows robust progress.

Psychology Discussion Due In 4 Hours
Due in 4 hours Play the expert in the following scenario and apply ethical principles and professional standards of learning and cognition psychology to your rationale: You are a computer software training instructor for a large corporation that designs bicycles. You have a group of new trainees who must learn your company’s design software system. List two areas of the learning environment that might be problematic to your training if you implement a fully online/asynchronous training program. What two strategies could you use to assist your learners/trainees with this protocol of learning based on your two noted areas? Based on the course content and the knowledge you have gained in this course so far, what mode of learning environment would you suggest for your group of new trainees? Support your reasoning with empirical evidence. Using appropriate citations and references, explain how the empirical findings presented in the assigned articles suggest the importance of applying self-regulation and metacognitive strategies to one’s own learning. Describe the purpose of learner assessments and how self-regulation positively affects the outcomes. Does self-regulation need to be applied differently in virtual learning environments than in traditional classrooms? What problems may occur for learners who have not developed self-regulation in asynchronous learning or training environments? What do your articles suggest the pros and cons are of cooperative learning or training? Based on your own experiences, do you agree or disagree with the suggestion that cooperative environments are beneficial? If so, why? If not, what could have been done differently in your example based on the empirical findings within your resources? Support your argument with empirical research.

Career Development At Electronic Applications Electronic Applications Corporation Is A Major Producer Of Silicon Chips For The Computer Industry. It Is…
Career Development at Electronic Applications Electronic Applications Corporation is a major producer of silicon chips for the computer industry. It is located southeast of San Francisco in an area of high technology firms. Since its founding in 1972, the company has grown rapidly in terms of sales and profits, thus enhancing its stock price many times over. However, human resource policies have tended to lag behind company growth. Emphasis has been on reactive policies to meet the requirements of external organizations such as the federal government. Human resources have not been a high priority. Recently, Harold Sweeney has been hired as Director of Human Resources for the company. Sweeney had previously served as an Assistant Personnel Director for a large ?blue-chip corporation in southern California. He took his present position not only because of an increase in pay and responsibility, but also because of what he termed ?the challenge of bringing this company from a 1950s human resource mentality to one more compatible with the realities of 1990s. Sweeney has been on the job for four months and has been assessing the situation to determine the more significant human resource problems. One significant problem seems to be high turnover among electrical engineers who work in Research and Development. This is the core of the research function and turnover rates have averaged about 30 percent per year over the past three years. In assessing the cause of the problem, Sweeney checked area wage surveys and found Electronic Applications paid five to eight percent above the market for various categories of electrical engineers. Since the company did not have a formal exit interview system, he could not check out other possible explanations through that mechanism. However, through informal conversations with a large number of individuals, including the engineers themselves, he learned that many of the engineers felt ?dead-ended in the technical aspects of engineering. In particular, the Research and Development Department had lost some of the younger engineers who had been considered to be on the ?fast track. Most had gone to competitors in the local area. One particular Research and Development employee who impressed Sweeney was Helen Morgan. Helen was 29 years old, had a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from California Institute of Technology, and was studying for her M.B.A. at the University of Santa Clara at night. Helen had been employed for seven years, three in an entry-level engineering position and four as a section chief. The latter promotion was the highest position in Research and Development other than the position of Director of Research and Development. Helen claimed that ?the company doesn’t really care about its good people. In her view, the present director, Harry James, doesn’t want to allow his better people to move up in the organization. He is more interested in keeping them in his own department so he can meet his own goals without having them to orient and train new people. Helen also claimed she was told she ?has a bright future with the company by both James and the former Personnel Director. Her performance appraisals have been uniformly excellent. She went on to criticize the company for using an appraisal form with no section dealing with future potential or future goals, no rewards for supervisors who develop their subordinates, no human resource planning to identify future job openings, no centralized job information or job positioning system, no career paths and/or career ladders, and attitudinal barriers against women in management positions. Sweeney checked out the information Morgan had provided him and fount it to be accurate. Moreover, he heard through the ?grapevine that she is in line for the excellent position with a nearby competitor. Clearly, he has an even greater challenge that he had anticipated. He realizes he has an immediate problem concerning high turnover of certain key employees. In addition, he also has a series of interconnected problems associated with career development. However, he is not quite sure what to do and in what order. Question Describe the nature and causes of the problem faced by Mr. Sweeney. 2. What additional questions should Sweeney ask or what additional information is needed before proceeding toward a solution to this problem? Why? 3. What are the individual and organization benefits of a formalized career development system? 4. If Sweeney decides to develop a formalized career development system of Electronic Applications, what components or types of service should be offered? Why? 5. Should the career development activities be integrated with other human resource management activities? If yes, which one? Why? 6. What criteria should Sweeney consider to evaluate good candidates for promotion? What criteria could be used to evaluate the performance of supervisors in development of their subordinates?
