CHAPTER 1 1. 0 INTRODUCTIONToday, computers have increasingly become part of our lives at work, at home, and even when travelling. The growth of Internet has brought about revolution to human daily lives. Internet is not only a big part in research and educatio n these days, but also plays an important role in the communication technology. With the Internet, purpose is to provide easier communication and transfer of information among people around the world. Nowadays, government, private, university, and institution mostly have a web page as a primary source of information for people of all ages to access on it. . 1 BACK GROUND INFORMATION Dau University (ANU) is a member of the worldwide family of Nazarene institutions affiliated with the Church of the Nazarene founded on the same principles – the development of students in a strong spiritual environment. ANU offers a well-rounded, holistic education to help members establish themselves in three important areas as its motto: Character – Explore your faith for living. Competence – Achieve your goals for your career. Community – Find your place in the world. It is the first Nazarene University established outside of the United States.It has been an affiliate of t he Council for Christian Colleges & Universities since February 2002. It was established in the year 1994l located on the Maasai plains across Nairobi National Park, from the city of Nairobi. 1. 2 PROBLEM STATEMENT Each year, hundreds of students graduate from this university. The common problem faced by faculty is how to keep in touch with their graduate students because there is no system that has been develop to act as a â€Å"middle person† for communication among the faculty and the alumni member.Thus, developing an alumni portal for this faculty will solve the problem. The reason is that a web portal is a central point which anyone can view information and services towards the community. Virtual communities allow people with common interest to meet, communicate and share ideas and information through an online network such as the World Wide Web. Through these activities, participants develop bonds with the members of the community. The main idea of this project is to pr ovide a visual communication platform among the alumni and non-alumni (ANU community). 1. 3RATIONALE (JUSTIFICATION) The current situation faced in careers office in tracking ANU alumni show that the work flow is not under taken efficiently, there is too much time and resources wastage, for example most of the time, head of careers department has to physically go out and try to find ANU alumni out there in order to contact them of which it’s a waste of time considering having an alumni portal where the alumni themselves signup to the portal providing their contacts and work position wherever they are regardless of the distance or their geographical location.In terms of, wastage of resources, current system is losing a lot both financially and opportunity wise, since some of well placed alumni cannot be tracked or contacted to help in donation or support in improvement of infrastructure within the university or in any other difficult situation that the university might be faci ng and need external support. 1. 4 PROPOSED SYSTEM This project was focusing on web-based application, which as a new forms of interactive media between the ANU alumni members and non-alumni members (ANU community).It comprises a collection of information pages, containing both textual and graphic elements and connected with hyperlinks. By develop interactive sites which contain web pages that allow in exchanging information between the Web site and user. Additionally, storing updated record of alumni member also been provided. The scope of user involve for this project is the alumni and non-alumni that consist between the ANU administration and student of ANU itself In addition, this portal also open to general public who interested to browse around on certain information provided.It is more of a social networking website but one that concentrates or includes only the ANU alumni and ANU community. The system admin will be able to start a forum topic of which the registered members will be able to post their comments in the forum. Also the admin will be able to delete unwanted profiles and any kid of unwanted posted material by the members. Admin is also in control of creating student and lectures profile. The system also has the capability of members sending personal messages to one another e. g. alumni to alumni, alumni to admin, students to alumni and vice versa.The alumni are needed to sign up or register by inputting: Username, Password, Name, Graduation year, Program undertaken, Admission No, Phone No, Email address, Address, Current work and current Job status. Through this, they are able to interact with their former classmates and keep in touch after graduating from the prestigious university. This system will also motivate current students to perform exceptionally so as to be included in the bracket of successful alumni. The careers office and administration will then have easy access to Alumni contacts and their whereabouts. . 5 SYSTEM OBJECTIVES Th e main objective of developing this project is to create a system of a â€Å"middle person† entity, allowing alumni members and non-members to communicate virtually. Developing the portal gives a lot of benefits to alumni members, official faculty, students, lecturers and also general public. The benefit to: i. Alumni member Facilitate communication between alumni member and non-member. A communication platform for alumni could support both the information flow among faculty and alumni and among non-alumni.Existing platforms for supporting alumni interaction mainly provide address lists and news for alumni. ii. Administration Faculty Provide an easy way for tracking the alumni. Therefore, the faculty can get feedback from their graduate students. Furthermore, it improves contact with the alumni so that having maintained database of alumni record. iii. Students Enable alumni share positive career and life experiences with other student. Besides that, the alumni can mentor and advise the students. For example, alumni in certain career field can offer guidance to students who are pursuing the same field of work. v. Lecturers The lecturer is able to exchange information with the alumni member. Therefore, the lecturer may know whether they need to exchange, modify or maintain the contents of the courses. So that they can always deliver the right information for their student to fulfil the environment need from time to time. V. General Publics Allow in browsing around to get information or to find old or new friends among the alumni member where the purpose of it is to allow them to get the addresses of the alumni members. 1. 6 SCOPE OF THE SYSTEM.The proposed system will help automate the university operations of getting in touch with the alumni and alumni getting in touch with fellow alumni. The system then: i) Provide professional networking through the interaction of all faculty graduates. ii) Facilitate sharing of information with the alumni. iii) Able t o inform faculty happenings and events by inviting alumni to remain active in the Alumni Association and involve in faculty activities. iv) Provide updated records of addresses, employment, and other personal information about alumni. ) Provide stable communication between alumni and non-alumni (ANU community). vi) Help in the building of the Dau fraternity in the expansion of this community. vii) Set alumni as examples/role model/mentors to ongoing students. 1. 7 LIMITATIONS. The proposed system requires increased knowledge in IT such as network management, database management, html, user support and security, it also require more experiences in this kind of system development. Requires finances for research e. g. internet connection fee etc. 1. 8 BENEFICIARIES Those to benefit most from the new system include: ) The careers office; the department will be able to get into contact with the alumni since most of their contacts will be in their profile in alumni portal. b) The universi ty administration as a whole, administration will get to know how its own products are doing/performing in the outside world. c) Alumni themselves will benefit by keeping their bond strong and their friendship won’t be lost and also maintain close relationship with the university. d) Current students will be able to identify role models from the alumni portal and work to their goals and objectives in life. 1. 9 THEORETICAL FRAME WORKThe following theories would help deal/come up with the ANU Alumni Portal i. e. considering the evolution of the World Wide Web from Web 1. 0 to Web 2. 0 is creating subtle but profound changes in the ways people locate and access information, communicate with, and learn from each other. The changes in technologies are driving changes in human behaviour, interactions, and knowledge acquisition. The paradigms for learning have already evolved beyond traditional classroom models to synchronous and asynchronous, interactive, and collaborative learnin g, which is further extended by Web 2. tools and social networking approaches. However, recent developments in Web 2. 0 technologies are far outpacing the development of theoretical frameworks for their utilization in education and training. According to Kamel Boulos and Wheeler (2007), â€Å"the second incarnation of the Web (Web 2. 0) has been called the ‘Social Web’ because, in contrast to Web 1. 0, its content can be more easily generated and published by users, and the collective intelligence of users encourages more democratic use† (p. 2).This Alumni Portal takes a form of social networking of which it’s the practice of expanding knowledge by making connections with individuals of similar interests. In Web 2. 0 environments social networking is linked to technological services and software that make it possible for people to communicate with others from anywhere, at any time. Social networking refers to sites such as Facebook, MySpace, and Linkedin, where users set up a profile, create formal connections to people they know, communicate, and share preferences and interest.To make an ideal knowledge structure (social structure that can assume responsibility for developing and sharing knowledge) three elements are put together that is Domain, Community and Practice of which this system integrates to construct the Alumni Portal. The purpose of this system is to develop a theoretical framework to understand learning among groups of individuals that utilize social networking applications among the alumni and the university to working towards a common goal i. e. how groups of individuals can occasionally and under particular circumstances cast their thinking into a coherent whole.CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW 2. 1 INTRODUCTION This chapter discusses detailed descriptions of the alumni portal and similar approaches of virtual communication, comprehensive, and critical discussion of each and other material related to the topic. 2. 2 Glo bal literature review The University of Malaysia known as USM has an alumni portal where the URL is http://www. usm. my/alumni/organisasi_main. asp. In developing the portal it uses Active Server Page (ASP) as server side scripting language together with mark-up language which is HTML. Java Script language uses in order display certain images and other things.The way of designing the portal is not so interactive, because it does not provide exchange information service between the web site and the user. The portal is more to static type of web site. Alumni web site for Kolej Agama Sultan Zainal Abidin is known as Laman Web Ex KUSZA (http://www. geocities. com/ex_kuzsa) from the website address, the web has been developing by using templates in Yahoo Geocities services. It offers very limited services and more to static web site. This web site does not have database because it does not involve storing data. 2. 3 Regional literature reviewAfter regional research on alumni portal, I ca me across the University Of Johannesburg Alumni Portal of which the developing of the portal uses Active Sever (ASP) as server side scripting language together with HTML. The portal design in home page consist of mixed use of fonts of which down grade the rating of the portal but for its functioning and its categories content is well fitted but it does not involve storing of data being one of its major lack. 2. 4 Local literature review After local research in several universities, no university within the country has an alumni portal.For example the University of Nairobi contains only description of what its alumni are but no interface or a way of interaction between its alumni and the university or interaction between its fellow alumni. (http://www. uonbi. ac. ke/node/132). It does not include data base what so ever 2. 5 Summary This chapter identified several literature reviews that related to alumni portal. Much of the literatures on portal are reporting descriptive personal exp eriences, not theoretical analyses. With developing portal that act as a one stop destination where all part of users use starting point to other resources on internet or intranet.Typically, this portal will provide many services such as search engine or directory, news, maps, email, forums and private messaging for university and the graduates' students who will use portal to gather together all the information to share with other, furthermore, is keep in touch with each other. ? CHAPTERIII RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 3. 1 INTRODUCTION This chapter is explanation on method and process used for research and system requirements needed for the development of the alumni portal for ANU, all of the information used for collecting research methodology. 3. 2 Locality of the ProjectThe project is being carried out at ANU, in CIS department section of system development desk. The proposed system will be web-based hence located/posted on the internet in ANU website with its. it will the students to understand material given, review sessions, and participate in conversations with lecturers. 3. 3 Population The population being focused on this system includes ANU students, its alumni and the lecturer basically the ANU community of approximately 5,000 people inclusive of all the campuses. Students who can be divided into: day scholars and boarders, lecturers who are divided into: part time and full time lecturers. . 4 Research techniques: 3. 4. 1 Sampling method Sampling is, â€Å"the process of collecting examples of the actual documents† (Systems Analysis and Design, 2010). The sampling method that will be used in this project system is the systematic random sampling of students which will involve selecting every tenth student for review so as to collect feedback concerning the proposed system in order to know what should be included and what should be discarded from the system. Undertaking sampling will also help to improve the effectiveness of information that will be obtained to be more accurate. . 4. 2 Interviews This will involve interviewing ANU community as whole i. e. current students, lecturers, ANU alumni and individuals that have knowledge on alumni, in order to evaluate their needs and preferences so that one can plan the best methods to use in the undertaking of his or her project in order to suit their needs. 3. 4. 3 Literature study This will involve consulting relevant ANU publications such as books, magazines and web pages that contain information of topic of the project inquiry and the relevant solution to the problem that one or that I will want to tackle.This will enable me to make a project that will ensure that all user needs are meet according to their preferences. 3. 4. 4 Observation This is a fact-finding technique that involves systematically selecting of ANU environment, watching and recording behavior and characteristics of objects or phenomena found within ANU community, seeing the system in action will give an addition al perspective and a better understanding on the systems procedure. This will allow the verifying of statements that will be made from interviews and determine whether the systems procedures will really operate as described.Observation will provide the knowledge needed to test or install future changes in the proposed system. 3. 5 The Platform: The System will be developed using a web application and databases. The content in our web application will be connected to a database. So the idea here is getting data into a database so that we can use it in our web application. The focus here will be bridging between the table schemas of a database and running them on web application and vice versa. 3. 5. 1 MySQL This provides a platform to develop the proposed systems database.MySQL is ideal for record storage from different platforms. It also has the capability of handling large system records. 3. 5. 2 PHP According to Mike McGrath (2002), he defines that PHP can be used to create intera ctive dynamic websites and is rapidly gaining in popularity because it is flexible, cross platform technology that provides amazingly powerful features. PHP can be used to dynamically generate the HTML code for a web page. PHP is embedded into the HTML code with the use of special tags, called Deli meters. By using the deli meters, many sections of PHP code are able to add to an HTML document.Embedding PHP code in HTML code makes it possible to enhance existing web pages on a web site. (Paul Whitehead, Joel Desamero, 2000). 3. 5. 3 HTML In computing, Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a Markup Language designed for the creation of web pages and other information viewable in a browser. The focus of HTML is on the presentation of information-paragraphs, fonts, italics, tables e. t. c. 3. 5. 4 CASE Tools These are computer aided software engineering tools that enables the developers to represent the system in form of flow charts, graphs and data flow diagrams CHAPTER IV SYSTEM ANALYSI S 4. 1 INTRODUCTION This is a step-by–step process for developing high-quality information systems (Systems Analysis and Design, 2010). In order to carry out system analysis researchers had to perform system analysis which basically is carrying out feasibility studies of the school. These include: 4. 1. 1 Technical Feasibility This includes an investigation of the technical resources of the ANU. The university IT department is not well established and it lacks enough man power and resources to support the system.The department has only nine computers, of which all of them are outdated thus the need to purchase more IT resources that will be able to withstand the proposed system. 4. 1. 2 Economic Feasibility This investigates the projected benefits of the proposed system outweighing the estimated cost usually considering the total cost of ownership. The proposed automated department system process will require some system maintenance cost.

With the support of the IT department and the alumni who are key players in the proposed system will be used effectively. With the alumni portal the image of ANU will improve in terms of being a head in technology field and efficiency. 4. 1. 4 Schedule Feasibility This information system project is to be completed in 8weeks time. In this time we will be able to have completed the development of the project and tested it. 4. 2 Implementation PlanThe project is expected to take approximately 12 weeks in total. There are a total of 9 tasks that need to be implemented. The tasks have been grouped under each of the project objectives. This is as shown in the table below: TASKSDU TY System planningThis will involve analyzing, defining and coming up with a time schedule of the project which will be done by the developer. Preliminary InvestigationThis will involve determining if the project’s system proposal is worth pursing into analysis phase AnalysisAt this stage a detailed study of the current system in use will be undertaken that will lead to specifications of the new system.This will be done by a system analyst. DesignDesign will be based on the user requirements and the detailed analysis of the new system tools such as flowcharts, use case diagrams will be used. ImplementationThis is the conversion of theory to practical analysis. During this stage, all the programs of the system will be loaded on to the user’s computer also the testing of the system will be undertaken. this will be done by a technician consultant Testing and InstallationThe system will be tested and errors and bugs will be checked in order to create a perfect system.The c hange of the system will be direct change over-where the current system will be immediately replaced by the new system. PresentationThis is the last stage whereby I will present my project by explaining the processes, development, and approach about my project in detail. CHAPTER V 5. 1 SYSTEM DESIGN 5. 1 Use case diagram According to Shelly Rosenblatt â€Å"a use case diagram visually represents the interaction between users and an information system. The different actors in the proposed system will be the Administrator, Alumni, Students and Lecturer. ? 5. 2 Flow ChartA flow chart will show the flow of the data from the time the Alumni, Student, Lecturer and Administrator will be registering to the system to the time they finalize their process. 5. 3 Flow Diagrams (DFDs) They will be used in the proposed system to show the flow of the data collected from the time a alumni will register into the system and processed. The main entities will be the alumni, the student and the administ rator. There will also be processes and data stores which will process and store data respectively. a) Level 0 Diagram ? a) Level1 diagram CHAPTER VI 6. 1 CODING AND TESTING i) Home page: Welcome to Dau University Alumni PortalWelcome to Dau University Alumni Portal ; :: ANU Alumni Home Register Login User Info Edit Profile Search Alumni Directory Logout Contact Us Forum :: Welcome to Dau University Alumni Portal | Membership to this Portal is only available to ANU alumni.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 General Climate change and global warming has been warned to no longer be viewed lightly. These changes are considered to be one of the biggest threats that being faced by nature and humanity today. According to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), climate change can be defined as the changes of climate which is attributed either directly or indirectly towards human activities which also able to change the composition of the global atmosphere. As an addition to this matter, the natural climate changes seemed to change over comparable period of time. Generally, Malaysia might be one of the lucky countries that do not experience extensive damages due to extreme climate changes. However, mild climate related disasters are quite frequent to happen lately. These refer to occurrence of landslides due to excessive rainfall and strong winds happened at the hilly and the latter, at the coastal areas causing severe damage (MET, 2010). Environmentally, climate change in Malaysia means increase in total heavy rain falls, rising mean sea level and possibly extreme weather. Extreme weather can be fierce and destructive. According to the fifth Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, if greenhouse gas emissions are reduced significantly, the rise in global temperature will be about 2 º C towards the end of century.

Women s Rights Throughout History - 1539 Words

Women’s Rights throughout History Today and throughout history, women have had to face a vast amount of discrimination towards themselves in politics, the workplace, and in the effort to receive a better education. Within the past decades, women have been discriminated against in many different aspects and have struggled throughout their day-to-day lives. However, many people have also taken significant action in standing up for the female population and working to improve their lives. Many individuals dedicated their lives to helping women to be treated as equal rather than inferior to men. Those who have fought for women’s rights have greatly impacted and improved the lives of women. Discrimination against women having strong political views and being able to vote has been a fundamental issue in the past, and is still a present issue. Maud Wood Park, a women’s rights activist, largely increased the number of women interested in politics. Throughout college, she helped to escalate the number of women interested in taking part in the growing political world. Without Park, women’s interests in politics would not have spiked as much as it did throughout her lifetime. She influenced numerous women to openly talk about their views on current issues and to take a stand against the injustice ways that society viewed females.

Four approaches to the political economy development of...

The study of development in Latin America has been approached from a variety of academic disciplines. International Political Economy scholars have provided a number of different approaches for studying, analyzing and understanding the political and institutional constrains that have shaped the development of Latin American countries. They have also incorporated into the analysis variables such as the influence of international organizations and the economic and class history, and its relation with one of the principal characteristics of Latin American countries: the disparity between the wealthy and the poor. Throughout this work, I intend to summarize and review four of the most representative theories that have helped shape the study†¦show more content†¦Under this particular view underdevelopment in Latin America has its roots in Colonialism, which generated a specific economic structure and a very particular dynamic (always determined by the economic interests and needs of the core region) between the core and the peripheral territories that resulted in, among other things, export dependence, rigid class hierarchy and unequal exchange opportunities. After the colonized countries became independent, the relationships they had undertaken did not change. The elite that were now in charge followed an agenda that maintained these relationships and favored special interests that not only did not help to end the dependency to the core, but in many cases allowed for the rise of authoritarian governments. Dependency Theory is a critique, and an alternative to free market economists and modernization theories. It attempts to explain underdevelopment by examining the unequal interactions between core and periphery nations and by arguing that underdeveloped countries must reduce their connections with the metropolis and minimize external pressures in order to achieve a developed status.

Cause and Effect Paragraph: A cause is a reason for, or events leading up to. An effect is the results of a cause or causes. Having the skill to think in the mode of cause and effect is a key to victory in daily situations. We will write a custom essay sample on Cause and Effect or any similar topic only for you Order Now Cause and Effect of Dropping Out For many teenagers, there are numerous negative factors that can lead them to give up on their education and drop out of school. The first cause is that many teenagers lack positive role models in their lives. The lack of an encouraging adult in their lives can cause them to think negatively about themselves and it does not allow them to live up to their full potential. Also, the lack of a positive role model can cause them to get involved with the wrong kind of people and activities. When students get involved in these types of negative situations, they usually don’t focus on school. This can lead many impressionable young children to give up on their education. Another factor that causes a student to give up on school is a lack of determination. If they’re not determined to graduate, it can be very difficult for them to stay in school. Many students find it difficult to stay focused on school when they when they feel that getting an education is useless. Some students only attend school because they are forced to and they are not there to further their education. The third and final factor is peer pressure. Many students give into pure pressure very easily. If the pure pressure is negative, this can lead them into drugs and alcohol. The drugs and alcohol can cause them to drop out very easily because that is the only thing that they are focused on and it can easily ruin a child’s life. How to cite Cause and Effect, Papers Cause and Effect Free Essays Patrick Gallagher Professor Adams College Composition December 4, 2009 Cause and Effect of Lying â€Å"The whole truth and nothing but the truth. † If these were words to live by then the whole world would be in trouble. Living in this imperfect world, we are surrounded by people who lie and who have an infatuation with lying. We will write a custom essay sample on Cause and Effect or any similar topic only for you Order Now There is nothing that you can do to stop it. It is a natural human behavior to keep yourself out of trouble, and lying to protect yourself is a tool that everyone uses. Most of the time they are little white lies that are used casually, not to hurt others’ feelings, but occasionally people get caught up in their own web of lies. This is where problems occur. Lying can lead to a multitude of problems including lost friendships, loss of trust, and the manipulation of individuals for your personal gain. There are also causes of lying such as pathological liars, and the avoidance of situations. When an individual becomes a pathological liar they begin to lie incessantly to get their way and do so with little concern for others. There is a great website named www. ruthaboutdeception. com that has a specific page dedicated to pathological lying, with this page a great quote comes about the stigma of lying. â€Å"Pathological liars have little regard or respect for the rights and feelings of others. A pathological liar often comes across as being manipulative, cunning and self-centered. † Pathological lying is not a disease that is built up f rom the unstable mind but rather is a very serious emotional disorder that comes from insecurity. To lie with such disregard for others emotions and feelings shows how manipulative and grotesque we are. You become only interested in the outcome of your future and become willing to walk on and over whoever stands in your way. But in the end it will come to bite you in the butt, for when you are looking for a job and need to cite a reference you will have non to rely on. It’s ironic how a person who is so unreliable still relies on others to achieve his/her personal agenda. A person who lies their whole life is living in an empty shell. They are not being honest with themselves and ultimately will end up living a lonely life. In this world you need trust to be able to survive, and if you have none you will be alone. Lying is a learned behavior that people pick up as a tool to avoid situations. Lying is heavily frowned upon in society and can lead to the degradation of one’s personal merit. When caught up in the moment, people often use lies to either make their lives more interesting or to avoid the chance of being caught. It’s often an ugly sight when an individual is caught in a lie, especially if you’re lying to a close friend or lover. It’s often best to avoid lying and to stay truthful to your friends and family, but we all know that as humans we fall into the path of sin. As children, a majority of us were raised in a household that respected and learned the 10 Commandments: â€Å"Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor. † (Bible: King James, Exodus 20:16) This is a direct example at how early these beliefs were implemented. When we lie we are not only lying to the individuals, we are also lying to ourselves. And when you lie once, it’s going to be easier to repeat the process a second and third time. Gradually it becomes a habit and you can be classified as a compulsive liar. Lying can lead to lost friendships and burnt bridges between individuals. People would rather associate themselves with truthful individuals who are trustworthy and when you’re caught in a lie it can lead to the loss of trust. The most important effect that can come from lying is the loss of trust. Trust is key in every relationship, whether it is romantic, friend, or family. It allows people to be able to confide in you and to rely on you. When you lose someone’s trust it’s extremely difficult to regain it and ultimately can lead to the destruction of a relationship. Trust is the foundation that keeps your friendship stable. If you build upon that foundation with lies then your friendship is unstable. When those lies begin to birth themselves your friendship crumbles like a bran muffin. It’s hard enough for people to open themselves up to the possibility of emotional distress by trusting an individual. It’s even worse when the person comes to the realization that their friendship or relationship is a sham and was based around deceit and deception. Walter Anderson has a famous quote that epitomizes the vulnerability of an individual when they decide to confide in another hoping to find love. We’re never so vulnerable than when we trust someone- but paradoxically, if we cannot trust, neither can we find love or joy. † The only person you are really hurting in the long run in yourself. You’re limiting your potential as a human being by being deceitful and burning bridges with others. When you lose someone’s trust you not only lose their respect but you also lose your dignity. When you lose an individual’s respect you can never gain it back from that person no matter the circumstance. Your dignity and respect are testaments of your true character and who you really are as a person. Tim Mazur has the perfect quote that describes how lying effects other individuals and how it robs them of their rationality. â€Å"First, lying corrupts the most important quality of my being human: my ability to make free, rational choices. Each lie I tell contradicts the part of me that gives me moral worth. Second, my lies rob others of their freedom to choose rationally. † The repetition of your lies can become habitual which may label you as a pathological liar. Lying is a nasty habit that occurs in people’s lives. As people we are responsible for the wellbeing of each other and need to control ourselves in the manner we conduct. If you are looking for a guideline to do this you can look in your Bible and follow the Golden Rule. â€Å"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets. † (â€Å"New International Version Bible† Matthew, 7:12) If we follow the Golden Rule then we are set to live our lives to the fullest. We want to gain people’s respect and their trust; we don’t want to lose it. It has been said that, â€Å"Nobody likes a liar. † So the best advice to take is to tell the truth and be an honest individual and you will be rewarded in friendship. How to cite Cause and Effect, Papers Cause and Effect Free Essays It is estimated that there are over 2billion children in the world that is a huge number! Each of those children has parents who have their own idea on how to raise them. Children come from all different backgrounds and families; some parents choose to be carefree and not be strict with their children while others tend to set many boundaries. Some just have a reasonable number of boundaries for their children. We will write a custom essay sample on Cause and Effect or any similar topic only for you Order Now Know matter which way a parent chooses to raise their child there are going to be effects on the children. Most parents try to find a happy medium and teach their children lessons by having a reasonable number of boundaries. The effects of being more laid back as a parent make the children responsible, makes them learn respect, and more honesty. Parents who have a reasonable number of boundaries for their children teach them how to be responsible. As a teenager, my parents let me make most of my own decisions; I had some rules but for the most part I could do what I wanted. I think growing up like this made me more responsible. I knew I had my freedom but I also knew that if I got in trouble it would all get taken away. I think that this is the case for most children that have some boundaries. In time children learn how to be responsible and take responsibility for their actions. If children have strict rules they are not able to do anything, therefore, they could rely on their parents to take care of all their problems and if children had zero rules they would never get in trouble by their parents so they would not have to make smart decisions. Being responsible and making smart decisions is an effect of having parents who have a reasonable number of boundaries. In today’s world, there are many children who do not show respect for adults or themselves. There are parents who do not feel like punishing their children for being rude or some parents who do not think their children are doing anything wrong. Parents who are strict will make sure that their children show respect to adults and other children, but then when they grow up most kids will go out and be wild or disrespect their own bodies because they had no freedom when they were younger. From past experiences I was always taught to respect adults and others. When I did not respect adults I was grounded or got in some sort of trouble, having these consequences showed me I was wrong and made me realize how important respect for others is. My parents always taught us to self-respect as I was growing up and now I have a lot of self-respect for myself and for my image. I believe this is because of how my parents raised me, I made some bad decisions but my parents told me the correct steps in making sure that I did not make that mistake again. By parenting children in a loving way and caring for them they will learn how to respect and get respect in return. Earning respect may be hard to do but a good place to start is by being honest. Honesty is the most important quality that children and parents can have in order to have a good relationship. Parents that have strict rules for their children do not realize that it could push their children away. Children may not want to have a relationship with their parents or feel they cannot tell them anything. Children that have parents that do not care may feel like there is no point in telling their parents anything. I am completely honest with my parents, especially my mom. When I was younger there was one incident where I did lie and my parents found out; they were more hurt then mad because they thought I would tell them everything. I learned from that because since I did not get in trouble or grounded it made me realize that I can tell them anything and share my thoughts with them. A unique and equal parenting style will show the child that a parent can also be a friend and will allow the child to be more open and honest with them. All of these three qualities are effects of a parenting style that has a reasonable amount of boundaries. Having parents whom had this style of parenting made me into a better person and taught me these three important qualities. There is never a way to be a perfect parent, but there are ways to be a better one. Trying different parenting styles and finding out ways to get closer to a child while at the same time being a parent can have a better impact on them and help them succeed later in life.

When I heard my grandmother start calling me in the room with the family laughing and carrying on I know they were watching some good horror movie. This Movie Christine was so amazing but frightening to me as the movie came on I began to grab my chair and squeeze, I can remember my palms being socking wet from being so nervous and this was just off the intro music. The movie was OK to me until I started seeing the car fix itself after I seen the group of boys vandalize the car,that’s when I begin to get freaked out because in the next picture it showed the car fixing itself, then going after the guys who vandalized it and murder them. Now when your around the age of twelve or thirteen to see a car kill someone and take over someone minds freaked me out, because as a young man I was so into cars. I thought if I loved a car that much it could possibly happen to me. When I say this movie gave me crazy feeling as if someone was standing over me when watching that movie. That’s when I found out who Stephan King was and how explicit and realistic his content was in his movies. That took a lot of stress away from me at that time of my life. Until I seen another Stephen King movie called â€Å"Maximum Overdrive† I know if you read the title you wouldn’t think it would be a frighting eye opening horror film, but If you find humanity being destroyed not scary well good for you because for me at that time the world coming to an end one day was unheard of in my head at that age. It started when I went to my step brother house he always used to let me watch and do whatever I wanted when I went over there it would always be that stack of movies he would grab and be like you cant watch this it will give you nightmares. Accurst like any other kid would say â€Å"I am not scared†, â€Å"I am grown†. A couple of hours had passed and that movie with the 18 wheeler on the case was on my mind. It was pretty late so It was time for me too go home, he told me to start getting my stuff ready to go. I went in the room and seen that stack of movies and I stuck the movie in my bag pack. As soon as I made it home that night I went straight to my room cut the T. V. On and begin watching the movie. The movie begin it was very interesting it grabbed me in pulled me to the edge of my seat. When I seen the begging it was so normal it looked like how someones everyday life would have went driving to work, interact acting with others how a normal everyday life goes I mean semi trucks passing you by men at work not working I mean it was so realistic calm and collective in the beginning. But all that came to an end very quickly all I can say is the bridge started rising while people where on it and we all now how that ended people wrecking there cars sliding out there cars into the ocean, then when the watermelon killed the women thru the sunroof I was amazed I could feel my eyes ripping into the back of my head I didn’t want to blink I thought I would miss something I had watched thousands of movies but I never seen something like that. Then I seen that 18 wheeler with that green face for some reason that faced scared the living cells out of my body when the engine revved up I could feel the hairs standing up on my arms . I just had that feeling that something scary was about to happen. I felt my stomach tightening up and my palms where getting itchy. It was funny to see the machines in the begin kick out the cigarettes, and change and the man picking them up like its his lucky day, but when the diesel went into the man eyes that’s when I was reaching my level of getting ready to cut it off from being so freaked out. In the back of my mind though I wanted to be able to tell my big brother that I watched it and I wasn’t scared, but I was in for a rude awaking. The scene when the electrical knife cut the women and started coming after her went to my head; I had just been cut by on my wrist about a month previous to me watching that movie. Then once I made it to the scene where the little league baseball team had own there game and the coach was getting soda for the kids and the machine started kicking soda out with all of this speed and force to where it left a soda can imprint on the coaches forehead as he past on. Then immediately a kid was being ran over by a giant steamroller I was done. I ran in my mothers room screaming, and crying that movie had missed my head up for a while I never watched horror movies after that until this previous year and it was that same movie it seemed more like a comedy horror than anything I guess the style of your mind and majority level plays a part in your imagination to believe in some of the things we see in horror movies.

How to cite Cause and Effect, Papers Cause and Effect Free Essays Cause and Effect In 2007, nearly eight percent of young adults in America did not receive a high school diploma (â€Å"What are the dropout rates of high school students? †). Imagining that two students in the average kindergarten class will not complete high school is heartbreaking. All students have the right to a strong education. We will write a custom essay sample on Cause and Effect or any similar topic only for you Order Now Students should be able to rely on schools to provide a healthy atmosphere which will encourage them to stay active in education. In order for schools to increase the number of students who receive their high school diploma, school should promote safe sex, create stricter policies on drug and alcohol use and teach a more interesting curriculum. By schools teach a more effective safe sex program, more students would choose to stay in school rather than dropping out. Out of these 8 percent of students who take the risky chance of dropping out, an incredible one-third of them were pregnant (Schwartz). It is hard enough on teens growing up by themselves. When you add a baby to the mix, things only get harder. Unfortunately, many students are unable to handle this responsibility and end up retreating to leave school as their source of help. If schools could step up the awareness of contraception methods, students would be less likely to get pregnant, resulting in a higher graduation rate. Astonishingly, in the survey taken in 2007 â€Å"one-fifth of the dropouts were married† (Schwartz). Many students today have a hard enough time dealing with boyfriends and girlfriends. To make the decision of marriage, it takes a great deal of maturity in both ends of the couple. Sadly, couples who have babies in school can feel forced to marry when they may not truly ant to spend the remainder of their life with their significant other. Stress is incorporated with these life changing choices all because of taking in the responsibility of having a child too early. After having a child, financial obligations become harder to meet. Dropouts may try to find jobs to support their child. This becomes a difficult situation due to the fact the dropout missed out on crucial learning experiences. It is reported that â€Å"dropouts earned slightly under $13,000 in average† (Urich). Students have their whole life ahead of them to find love, have children and work. The school systems are set up so that for the first eighteen years of people’s lives they are able to learn and mature for the future. In the economy today, bosses tend to look for someone with more education. If schools have the capability to change one factor in a teenager’s life such as having safe sex, one student may be able to have a more rewarding life. Schools can enhance their drug and alcohol policies so that students are more likely to complete high school. In a recent study, researchers found that a popular reason for high school students dropping out was that they â€Å"had a drug problem† (Schwartz). Addiction to drugs and alcohol abuser has to pay for the product somewhat. Students may world a lot to feed their cravings for the illegal substance. Ultimately, working causes lots of unneeded stress. But there are some students who are unable to work for one reason or another. There students may have to result to stealing to maintain their ongoing drug addiction. In this case, security becomes an issue that schools should deal with. According to the same poll, dropouts â€Å"didn’t feel safe† (Schwartz). As students are growing up, it is important to remember that they are maturing. Likewise, teenagers are still immature when it comes to some views. The feeling of safety is important to students. Another poll found that â€Å"School environments are very influential in the lives of youth. Experiencing a feeling of safety and security in school lowers the risk of an adolescent engaging in violence† (Smith 2). Considering their information, people can see that the way schools run their schools make a difference on the students’ feeling of security. The safe feeling is important to insure students stay in school. Drugs and alcohol are two easy ways that can eliminate the safe feeling especially when the substances lead to violence. Schools would be able to eliminate many of dropouts by threating punishment upon all drug and alcohol users. It is also crucial for these schools to enforce the harsher policies being set. By making this step against illegal substances, schools will set a standard for all disrupting actions in the way of completing high school. Implementing a more relatable curriculum to high school student is a measure that needs to be taken in order to keep students from quitting school. A high school student tell a reporter that â€Å"I am never going back to that gutter of a school,† referring to his unwillingness to return to school (Lagto). His story dealt with the teachers simply not caring. Students simply get bored of their teachers and schools and decide to cut class. Attendance soon becomes a major problem. It is reported that â€Å"One-third [of dropouts] cut class at least 10 times† Schwartz). If schools applied interesting topics to their teachings, attendance would increase, giving the dropout rate a decrease. Not only would attendance increase, but students would be more willing to do better work. The student also goes on to say, â€Å"Most of the teachers didn’t teach anything. All they did was put the assignment on the board and expect is to do it. I’m some of my classes, I nev er did my work† (Lagto). The student admits to not doing his work due to his boredom of the teacher. All students learn differently. Teachers aren’t paid to just write assignments on the board. Teachers are supposed to cater to all students’ needs of learning. If teachers don’t, students will not be as willing to work hard and they may lose all respect for teachers. â€Å"Dropouts reported that parents and guardians were more opposed to their decision than were school personal, with three-quarters indication that their families had tried to talk them out of leaving school† (Schwartz). For teachers not to care as much as parents is disheartening. Teachers are paid to care for students over the course of a year. Saying that some teachers don’t care if their students’ dropout is impossible to think about. Teaching is their job and passion should be applied to any job that someone has. If the curriculum were to remain the same, students could potentially resort to violence. Boredom is a major cause of school related violence. Of all dropouts, â€Å"One-third were put on in-school is to decrease, high school dropouts will remain an ongoing issue on the country. It is crucial for schools to enhance their curriculum so more high school students make the smart decision to get a diploma.

National Culture in Labor Market

Question: An HRM has to deal with such changes systematically and efficiently and motivate the employees to work to and achieve the desired goals of the organization. Answer: Introduction: It has been observed from past years that due to globalization business transactions are increasing along with initializing new markets like BRIC, some international and domestic level organizations intense competition has also been observed with increased interest and it will invoke requirement for HRM studies. The report will focus on addressing configuration of human resource management on different national contexts. This report focus on the approaches of culture with regard to labor market and employment data of two countries Singapore and America, also examines about cultural and social tradition of both the countries with regard to their impact upon development of employment relations and HR practices in Singapore and America respectively. In the report we also review cultural conceptualizations of both the countries and describe mechanisms due to which culture can influences in the human resource management design. Each country has its own culture which will affect the working of the organizations and will also decides the HRM policy and strategy regarding to human resource planning i.e. recruitment, selection and retention methods and strategies. Report discusses the strategies regarding to training cultures in Singapore and America and management of training and development. There is evidence that according to the culture strategies related to HRM also differs. There are various elements both internal and external to the organization that directly or indirectly affects the business enterprise and the employees of the company in each country. There are rapid changes in the society or the external environment like technological changes or sometimes climatically change. An HRM has to deal with such changes systematical ly and efficiently and motivate the employees to work to and achieve the desired goals of the organization. National Context: Singapore: Singapore community is very diverse having four official languages. They use English as their official language for business and politics. Their societys structure is built upon fundamental values like respect, honesty and group harmony and same applied over in business by Singapore people as their organizations are very group specific. Human resource is the greater resource of the country (Barnard and Rodgers, 2000). Structural changes in Singapores labor market: I had been observed that due to structural changes in the labor market of Singapore prior to 1997 financial crises in Asia, rate of job vacancies get higher than the rate of unemployment in Singapore (Mills, 2003). However from 1997 unemployed people had persistently outstripped as compare to the vacancies and this gap had increased since then and unemployment rate increased from 2% to 5.2% in 2003 (Chew, 2004). In 2007, due to the strong growth this declining unemployment rate somewhat get stable to 3% ( Chew and Teo, 2008) which is fluctuating but remained same up to 2010 and gradually trending downward from then. This can be happened due to the package introduces for increasing the workers employability through heavily subsidized training and retraining programs and this will help in retaining the workers. In order to increase their growth Singapore welcome d various multinational companies and their cooperation has been used to improve the human resources in the country (Chew and Goh, 1997). The country is mostly depends on foreign investment in terms of indorsing training program and facilities to promote them through incentives (Tan, 2004). As a result of this from last two decade, due to the formal on-job training system, human resource in Singapore had vast improvement in their skills. National Culture in Singapore: Singapore is known as industrialized nation in Southeast Asia and was also achieved great success in economies. But it is the fact that its cultural tradition still plays important role in all business activities. According to Hofstede (1984) Singapores national culture experience high power distance and in this cultural there are strong inequality between leaders and their subordinates. This country also known as nanny state there people are habitual and supposed to perform only the told work not else. People have Kiasu mentality means uncertainty avoidance attitude and have fear of losing (Thangavelu et al, 2011). This attitude is often competitive and emphasize towards getting the best deal for individual. But except from competitiveness, Kiasu attitude lead more towards fear of losing than desire to success. Singapores prosperity have underpinned by common norms and values which contain the tripartism practices, national unity and harmony in racial and religious perspectives (McC arthy, Mitchell and Piggott, 2002). It has been observed that the countrys many business activities has been influenced by Chinese population. But in current year it is observed that societies in Singapore are getting shape by western values and their younger generations are influenced by western culture. An HRM has to balance between the internal problems and external problems of the environment. The external environment comprises of the working condition taking place outside the organization. The external environment has significant effect on the working of HRM (Hui, 2010). America: As a result of globalization and rapid changes in technologies America which is known as worlds largest economy also faces increased competitive pressure in HRM development. Due to this pressure organizations in this country enhanced concern relating to engagement is strategic planning which is a process of anticipation in future changes due to business environment situation (Applebaum and Henderson, 1992). Business components are aligned in such a way that it will promote the effectiveness of organization. Labor Market flow: It is concluded from the evidence that American labor markets flexibility have become less while looking in broader sense. Organizations in America are focusing on competitiveness and HR department contributed up to the bottom line in this context and for MNCs performance of HR department is evaluated against the establishments of the parent company (Beechler and Yang, 1994). Companies in America are fast in decision making and leaders gives freedom to their subordinates so that, they can talk their ideas and great ideas are taken into consideration. It shows that hierarchical system is not popular in America, but also has some error due to adaptation of this system. Roles and responsibilities are divided individually and hence performance of each member is very important in team as it directly linked to companys goal (Abramson, Keating and Lane, 1996). Company in America believes in Return On Investment and do not concern themselves on how it is going to be achieved and also spend t heir less time on process establishments. Americans have high risk taking attitudes, once they took the work though there is 70% probability of work accomplishment; they achieve it as close to 100%. American organizations have multiculturalism as they have different nationalities and it improves their business as they have plenty of ways to think. Corporate Culture: As compare to any other culture Americans give less preference to personal relationship while it come to business approach, they took business first. Americans always try to invest in those companies where they think higher value of profit than lowest price (Tayeb, 1998). They always believe in being direct, i.e. they are not believed in confusing the terms. Their Yes means yes and No means no and may be termed as the person have not decided yet on the deal. They always want to come straight to the point and the way impress them is explaining why product or service is best in understandable way. According to Hofstede (1984) American culture does not believe in power distance, as we talk above, there is no hierarchical culture and leader treat subordinates equally and their ideas are also taken in to consideration. Another cultural dimension of Hofstede is uncertainty avoidance. Americans do believe in taking risk in business and they can prove their decision true, though the probabil ities are less. This is the part of attitude of the people and hence human resource power is more in American business and organizational culture. Manager and HR Policy Recruitment methods: In order to search and hire appropriate and qualified employees for particular job role us very important process and at the same time using appropriate channel are vital. Companies in Singapore and America use different methods in order to recruit best candidates for their companies. The methods like online advertisement, professional associated advertising and print media advertising are used as per the job role requirement (Arudsothy and Littler, 1993). Online advertising is most cost effective method and it is also possible to reach towards more people through internet advertising. It is also the easer as well as faster response producing method in comparison with the other traditional methods. To find the potential jobs Singapores job seeker using this channel mostly is found through the survey (Begin, 1995). Professional Association Advertising method is used to recruit well qualified candidates for very significant job role. Such candidates are sourced through placements which are company specific and hence have high educational qualifications, key technical skills in comparison with the candidates recruited from non-professional channels (Castells, 1992). Print Media Advertisement is traditional way of recruiting and it also reach towards large people. The companies having less developed brand uses this method. It is not fair to discard the importance of traditional method though online advertisement is utilized by more people. Selection methods: For selecting highest performing and well qualified candidates amongst the applied applicant various selection methods are used. Such methods are used to select the candidates from either large or small intake. The process will start from first reviewing resumes and applicant forms of the applicants and most of the applicants are getting disqualified if their resumes do not meet the requirement of job role. Next method used is testing of skills the short listed candidates then go through further test like personality testing, skills testing, and testing of essential skill required for job role. Next is Cognitive testing and Singapores norm online tests are used under this selection method and are also high validity method (Choi, 1995). Then the common selection method is through personal interviews. It is an effective method as the candidates are getting selected on the basis of their knowledge, because through various interview questions their knowledge is keenly tested. The intervi ew questions are depends on the job role and knowledge required for the position. Motivation and Retention Strategies: Employees have the capacity to work but many of them not have a desire to work willingly. The organizational manager helps employees to work freely, capably, efficiently and passionately and this is when the employees contribute their best to the achievement of goals of the organization. A Manager can buy employees physical presence in your work place but he can never buy his willingness to work (Deyo, 1992). It is rightly said that human beings have great potential but they use only a part of it when working, efficiently and contribute their best to the organization. Motivation is an internal state that energizes activities of humans which directs them towards achievement of objectives (Dore, 1973). It is a series of actions in which people are inspired to take action to achieve desired goals. Motivation can also be called as a will power to work and achieve goals of the business enterprise. Hence with the above explanation in general term means drives, wishes, want and alike forces. We say that a manger motivates his subordinates then it means that he will satisfy theses drives and desires and induces which he hopes, will satisfy these drives and desires and induces subordinates to act in the desired manner. Pay and reward strategies: Rewarding the employees does not mean just increasing the salaries but to motivate the employees in real manner it is vital to find right reward program (Tan, 2004). It is essential for strategic direction on any business and also defines unique work culture of an organization. The reward program is depend on level of total reward affordable to an organization, also the reward program is key to get competitive advantage, better to focus on staff which must win battles. Recognizing the good work done by the employee, small celebration of particular employees achievement achievements, taking employees views on some project is also good for employees motivation and also considered as reward by employees. American society has change the pattern and behavior of education because more females are getting into higher education. Human resource development also helps in understanding what exactly the organizational goals are and what type of candidates and employees will fulfill the companys requirements. It is the job of the human resource manager to help and motivate the employees with which they both will be in win-win situation and the employees are equally enthusiastic about their work (Frenkel, 1993). They should also support the work culture of the organization they are working with. Training, Culture and management: It is the duty of the manager to understand his core job and to make it understand to his subordinates this will help him to analyze his job and to relate it to the potential of the human being or his employees. It will also help the manager to identify the skills required for the profile which will make him understand whether to hire skilled, experience or fresher for that particular job profile. It will help the manager to identify the compensation that is to be paid to the employee. It will also briefly define what exactly the training and development should the employee or the candidate should go through for better performance. Thus the manager will understand whether the candidate needs some special certification or he is well qualified for the job. If the manager hires experienced candidate it will incur less expenditure in training and quality purpose (Endo, 1999). After doing certain type of examination internally it will help the human resource department to judge the candid ate and to select the best. It will also help to decide what type of quality candidate is best suited for the profile. In todays generation female workers are preferred but still gender equality exits in the society and in the organization. Male employees tend to earn higher than the female employees. Interest copulation issues are main factor in decreasing the skillfulness of women at workplace (Endo, 1976). In show to dodge get in productivity amongst women pinch and also to hoard their push level so that they perform a given task to best of their capabilities is important that organization takes suitable steps in this regards and also frame suitable policies. About conduct requirement suit breeding to its guild, supervisors and administering people at different levels on how to decrease this discrimination along with bringing harmony at workplace and increasing overall motivational level of employees at workplace (Fay, 1996). Power, Scope and Influence of managers: A human resource manager has to work under multifarious pressures. There are various elements both inside and outside the organization that directly or indirectly affect the business enterprise and the employees of the company. There are rapid changes in the society or the external environment like technological changes or sometimes climatically change. An HRM has to deal with such changes systematically and efficiently and motivate the employees to work to and achieve the desired goals of the organization. An HRM has to balance between the internal problems and external problems of the environment. The external environment comprises of the working condition taking place outside the organization. External environment of the organization is an important part and factor in the nature of human resource management. Balance scorecard is a method which is used by human resource managers to measure the performance of the employees. They can use this to measure only the quality and quantity performance but it is not possible for them to measure the satisfaction of the employees. Human resource managers should use various employee engagement programs and functions where they can have an open house discussion and take a feel of employee satisfaction level. They should try to make their employees as comfortable as they can at their work place. The major areas which need to develop in todays human resource management are the attrition rate. Human resource management in todays organization needs to concentrate on attrition rate of the employees. The organization should treat the employee as their asset and not their liability. The organizations should value the employees and show them how important every employee is to the organization. The company should involve various techniques in their organization which will make the employee value himself and view the organization as their long term goal. Human resource management is defined as organizing, directing, planning and controlling. This department takes care of all the functions related to welfare of the staff and employee. Conclusion: In this report first we discussed about the managerial choices gets shape due to cultural values across the national context in Singapore and America and how they differ in respect to human resource practices. It is also get clear from the report that cultural factors according to the country can only serve as one among the several characteristics and it influenced by the human resource practices and policies as per the contexts. We also explain how cultural sources in both countries effects and describes mechanism which affect HRM design. The report also observes that social pressure is related to employees working in the organization and they differ country wise. It is related with the attitudes and behavior of the employees. The employees should be properly motivated in order to attain the goals of the organization. If they are not properly motivated they wont function properly and hence unable to achieve the goals. Important business strategy of any organization in any country is to integrate the management of human resources with its investigation in order to get competitive advantage. It has been concluded from the report that countries like Singapore are influenced by their national factors, and many times those factors and cultural influences are become big hinders in terms of developing HRM practices in those countries. Changes are formed due to globalization impacts and human resource management is considered as a business partner and essential for business establishment. This report talks about America and Singapore, where the human resource management practices are considered as getting influenced by countries tradition and culture. Reference List: Barnard, M.
