Functions of organizational culture

 
 
Q1
Attached as a Word Document is a sports contract where you will insert information ONLY WHERE YOU SEE RED.
Basically, you are the athlete or celebrity but in the contract you are listed as the STUDENT. You are to choose who the sponsor is (it can be Coca-Cola, Red Bull, Under Armour, etc.) who wants you to represent them at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Most important is clause 2 titled “Specific Requirements.” List at least 3 requirements that the sponsor and you agree to (it can be to come to a venue, hospitality center, go to a club, or anything), details and dates of those requirements also. Also, look at clause 3.1 and insert any special conditions you require such as specific lodging, foods, travel arrangements, etc.
Use your imagination here.

Q5
Entrepreneurs attempt to effectively develop, organize, and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit. In some instances, athletic administrators become entrepreneurs in order to identify opportunities to earn revenue (i.e., revenue streams) for a sport organization. If funding is available and laws (e.g., Title IX) are satisfied, as an athletic director, what types of revenue generating activities or additional sports would you propose to the institution’s executive board members (e.g., Principle, President, Board of Trustees) be created within the athletic department you supervise? Please provide a brief explanation to support your response to this inquiry.

Q8
This week we will continue to explore the ways that our own cultures and upbringing influence the ways that we purchase, store, prepare, and serve food. Last week, we focused on food that would be prepared inside your home. This week, we open the doors and expand our reach.
Think of some events or gatherings you have attended in the past. This may be anything from a street carnival, a wedding reception, a SuperBowl Party, or a food truck fair. You can also write about street vendors or restaurants you have encountered overseas. For this discussion, discuss the food storage, preparation, or service that you experienced which was notably different than what you may have personally done in the past.
Did you feel that the techniques may have been risky or unsafe? Were you uncomfortable consuming the food or did you change your mind about eating it? Did you experience any adverse reactions? Be sure to include some steps that you could take to ensure that the food at those fairs, carnivals, parties, or food trucks would not cause harm to anyone consuming that item.
Q9
All professions use critical thinking to get the job done. No matter who you are or what job you have, every day brings problems that need to be rectified using critically thinking.
• Go the Program Guide in the APUS Library and find your program or the program you intend to study.
• Think of a problem that occurs or might occur in that profession and describe the critical thinking steps that would need to be taken to remediate or resolve the problem. Consider how the person determines the problem, the information needed, tools, options, and possible outcomes, as well as criteria used to make the decision.
Q 10
All of us are in different professions, have different specialties, and use critical thinking to solve problems at our jobs. Please write a well thought-out blog post and consider the following:
– Read one of the essays by an APUS faculty, staff, or student found in the Week 4 Lessons, Readings & Resources.
– Write about the critical thinking process in this essay, the argument, and how it practically related to the profession in-question.
– Did the essay present a good thesis and argument? Did the evidence support thesis? Did the essay demonstrate objectivity, accuracy, currency, and credibility while also using sound thinking?
– Incorporate what you learned from the Week 3 and 4 Lessons, textbooks, and Readings and Resources.

Q12
When our Founding Fathers drafted the First Amendment, they obviously could not imagine how the ways in which we communicate and share information would change. One of the most debated topics is the First Amendment. Many people do not understand what is or is not protected under the First Amendment.
What does the First Amendment mean to you and how do you think it applies to social media use?

Centered Approaches to Learning

 
 
Mr. Williams has been asked to develop a new online course called Psy 315-Psychology of Motivation and Emotion. He needs to develop learning objectives, assignments, and also decide which learning methods will be most effective for this course. Online courses at his university are typically 25% traditional age students (i.g., 18-24) and 75% adult learners (25 and over).
• Please develop 3-4 learning objectives for the course. See Bloom’s taxonomy for action verbs that you can use.
• Briefly describe 2-3 assignments that should be included in this course.
• What student-centered approaches might be useful for the delivery of material in this course? See Forsyth (2016) chapter 3 for guidance.

Baseline Survey

 
1. What attracted you to the field of education?
2. What is your teaching philosophy?
3. What do you hope to accomplish by the end of the course?
4. What questions or concerns do you have about the course expectations/requirements?
EXAMPLE:
1. What attracted you to the field of education? Please explain.
Already as a teenager, I loved to spend my time with small children. I was asked a lot to babysit someone’s child. I enjoyed playing with children, help them do their homework’s and just took care of them. Moreover, I have a cousin who is nine months younger than I. She has and autism and is developmentally retarded. I grew up seeing a lot of difficulties that my family faced throughout this period of time. With all my passion for children and my own experience with a special needs cousin, I decided to go for special education in early childhood to help children with special needs and families.
2. What is your teaching philosophy? Please explain.
My teaching philosophy is an understanding that all children are different in all aspects of their development. They are all individuals with their own background history, family beliefs, religion, interests, strengths, and weaknesses. Therefore, when educating a group of children, I would remember about their differences and create my lessons based on the information I know about them. Also, I like the theory of Multiple Intelligences by Howard Gardner. Every child learns differently as they all different personalities with their abilities. I want my classroom to be a safe environment for children with a space for learning in all eight intelligences. That way, I would allow my students to learn more and develop an interest and motivation to learn.
3. What do you hope to accomplish by the end of the course? Please explain.
I am very excited and, at the same time, frustrated to begin my first practicum. It is a new experience for me, and I hope to accomplish a new knowledge and experience that will help me become a professional and intentional teacher.
4. What questions or concerns do you have about the course expectations/requirements? Please explain.
As of today, I have multiple questions, which haunt me. However, all those questions are just about the process of completing the field experience/practicum hours and assignments. I think that I will receive answers step by step as I start the process.
5. What is your prior experience in the classroom? (certified teacher, para, substitute, non)
Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience teaching in the classroom. However, I have some experience working with different age level children.
6. Do you currently hold a teaching certification? If so, when you got certified, in what state, subject and type?
I currently do not hold a teaching certification.
7. Are you taking any certification exams this semester? If so, please tell us which one(s).
No. I plan to complete my master’s degree by the end of the summer and spend the fall time completing the certifications exams.
8. Describe your level of classroom experience. Are you a novice, developing, experienced? Please explain.
I am a novice in-classroom experience. By the end of this course, or maybe the end of the second practicum, I hope that I will get close to developing.
9. What type/level of support do you feel you will need to be successful in this course? Please explain.
Since I am new to the classroom experience, I might need support on an emotional level. It is an interesting time in my educational experience, but at the same time is very emotional as I would face many things that are new to me. I am ready for the hard work to complete this coursework successfully.
