Introduction Development in human beings starts when a child is born and considerably accelerates within the first five years of life of an individual. Different theorists of human development including Piaget, Vygotsky, Brunner, Bandura, and many others whose input have shaped the understanding of human development have tracked the notable developments. It should be noted that most changes in human personality take place in childhood and into the early adulthood but at the age of five, essential characteristics of human beings that define them in the future have been developed( Gallahue & Ozmun 2002). Aspects of development range from stages in a person’s life. In early months of life, cognitive, physical and motor developments take center stage. As the child progresses, even specific aspects as language, social and psychological developmental aspects can be monitored. According to Gallahue & Ozmun (2002) language development starts as early as three months. Motor development can also be monitored at the same time when children are able to hold up their heads for longer time than when they were born. Psychological and social developments are associated with the child’s interaction with his/her immediate environment. Main body In this paper, both fine and gross aspects of motor development are reviewed for stage development of children between ages of under five, under twelve and under eighteen. The investigation of the essentiality of motor development in these stages in a practical approach towards ascertaining what is best for these groups with regard to golf skills development. The writer attempts to justify inclusive or separate training based on research evidence for the groups for which this work reports. To what is conducted and entailed of coaching gross and fine motor development in the children’s golf skills this work presents a sensible educational channel. The report not only suggest what is necessary for each group but also analyses what would be the effects of this training to those under five in their future lives and if at all this kind of training is justifiable under circumstance that it may, after all, jeopardize the sole reason for which training is necessary; negatively affect the child’s future development. Motor development is be defined as the transformation in an individual’s abilities of reflexes and motion. It is the effective use of skeletal muscles in achieving a goal. It is generally associated with body coordination and movement both in esse
One of the knowledge management areas that I would delegate is project management time management. This area is wide and I don’t have to do all the things by myself. One of the requirements that I should take care of is to get the timelines and the timeframes for the tasks at hand. What are the logistics of these tasks; are they supposed to be finish-start, or start-finish. In other words, what are the requirements needed before they are executed. Should they start after other activities or are they able to be started on their own? These are the questions that can be delegated to other project members in the team (Ireland, 2006). I don’t have to be there to make these things happen. What I can do is to assign the people in the team the areas they can handle well. I will then tell them to do their own research on the areas they are assigned. They are supposed to get the needs for the time required to complete the tasks, the time slots that are required of them, and the slot they feel will best suit these tasks. These can be done well by other members who have fewer responsibilities. The other knowledge management area is Project Scope management. This knowledge management area is concerned in what should be achieved in all the tasks of the project. One the things that I will do, like project time management, is to divide the project into small tasks. I will then assign each member an area to research on. Each area should be represented by one or more people depending on the available members of the project. It is then the prerogative of the members to look for the tasks that should be completed in these areas. The team will then look at the scope that will be covered in the area. After the teams have exhaustively gathered all the tasks that will constitute the scope (Gait, 2003). I will then combine all the tasks from the group members and, together with the team members, come up with an integrated scope of the whole project. The person I would interface with in the project management is Chief Information Officer. The reason I would interface with him is because this is the person who is involved in the development of the project task in every stage. He is aware and involved in the development of the project every step of the way. The CIO is concerned with designing the system. He comes together with the system analysts to come up with the requirements of the system. He then sits with the coders and the programmers to make sure that the code is clean and all the cases are captured in the system. He then participates in testing of the system. With this involvement in the project, he is the best person to interface with in this task. The Chief Information Officer is the best person to help mitigate the risks that come with the project. This is because this officer is much aware of the requirements needed of the projects in place. With this dispensation, there are a lot to desire from this officer. He will work with the security officers to make sure that the system is safe and also help cover the holes that may be in the system. Since he is the pers
The APA Code of Ethics contains core principles and standards that psychologists should use at work. The Code does not apply to their personal lives. In my opinion, the ethical principles published in the Code are universal in terms that they should be considered by all people who want to be decent members of society. I believe that psychologists should adhere to the APA Code of Ethics both in professional and personal life. The critical principles of non-maleficence and respect for human rights mean that psychologists should not be biased and corruptible; they should treat all patients equally (APA, 2002). However, it seems impossible that in office, a specialist in psychology is not guided by prejudices and remains tolerable to all kinds of people, and outside of business hours becomes biased and intolerant. For example, if a person is racist, even during an appointment, his or her comm
Introduction “Affinity chromatography is a method used to separate biochemical mixtures and is based on highly specific biological interaction between an enzyme and substrate, antigen and antibody” (Melander et al. 1999) This technique is utilized in; Purification and concentration of substances from a blend into a buffering solution, to cut down the amount of one constituent of a solution and in the investigation the different biological compounds that bind to specific substances. (Melander et al. 1999) This paper seeks to review the affinity column method used in laboratory investigations. Specifically, the method and its principle will be outlined and three studies analyzed to underscore the importance of the method, various challenges, and how they are being improved. Technique description Principle Chromatography often goes through the immobile and mobile phases. The immobile phase is provided by a gel matrix, usually an Agarose gel; a linear sugar molecule sourced from algae (Mattiasson et al. 1999). During the process, heterogeneous molecules having specific properties will be separated from other molecules that lack the targeted property. In essence, the target molecules are trapped in the solid medium (Mattiasson et al. 1999). The process then goes into the second phase (mobile) in which the mixture is washed and the target molecule eluted (Melander et al. 1999). The binding of the molecules to a solid phase can be done using the column chromatography in which the “solid medium is packed into the column and the initial mixture run through the column to allow setting.” (Melander et al. 1999) Awash buffer is run through the column, the elution buffer applied, and then collected from the column. Alternatively, this can also be achieved by a newer method that utilizes the advantages of batch setup; this method is referred to as expanded bed adsorption. In this technique, “the solid phase particles are placed in a column then the liquid phase is pumped from the bottom to exit from the top” (Mattiasson et al. 1999). Gravitational force is exploited in this setup and it ensures that the solid phase remains with the particles as the liquid phase exits from the column (Melander et al. 1999). Affinity chromatography is utilized in various operations which may include; “nucleic acid purification, protein purification from cell-free extracts and purification from blood” (Melander et al. 1999). The technique is more often used in medical laboratory investigation
Introduction Community health relies on many factors, and health care is only a small part of one’s well-being. People do not live in the same environment – some experience hunger, homelessness, poor living conditions, and more. Many neighborhoods have been influenced by racial discrimination and financial restrictions historically. This paper considers a line of inequality in Hartford, an American city, the housing quality of which has been dictated by segregation for decades. As a community health nurse, it is vital to consider the consequences of poor living arrangements for many residents and the effects on health these problems cause. “The Ninth Street:” Community Assessment The city of Hartford, CT, continues to fight the effects of racial segregation. There are many neighborhoods where community health meets many challenges, but a clear line can be drawn between the Northeast and Downtown neighborhoods (Health in Hartford, 2022). In the former, poor housing conditions, low economic stability, and lack of access to services lead to difficulties in everyday living (Access Health CT, 2021). The windshield survey shows that the neighborhoods near the center have a higher number of abandoned buildings and a lower quality of housing. Moreover, fewer stores with healthy foods and accessible healthcare facilities can be seen. In contrast, the Downtown area’s housing appears to be new or well-built, with stores and activity centers. Therefore, on the first side, low-quality housing and the lack of access to healthy foods and medical care are potential health threats. As noted in the documentary by Smith (2008), a statistical connection exists between health problems and social status. Such factors as low income, low level of control at work or job insecurity, lack of access to healthy foods, and living conditions contribute to higher levels of stress. As a result, constant exposure to stress leads to increased rates of high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and other conditions (Smith, 2008). Therefore, the neighborhood’s condition is a prominent threat to its residents’ health. Moreover, the area’s housing is likely to have improper ventilation and moisture control in the buildings, which could result in mold and bad air quality. According to DeMarco and Healey-Walsh (2019), mold can lead to sensitive people developing respiratory symptoms. If left ignored, the poor quality of air and contaminants could lead to long-term breathing problems (Sullivan & Thakur, 2020). If people are unable to improve their living conditions, this problem can reach multi-generational levels. Community Health Nurse Interventions The knowledge gathered from this module shows that the neighborhood’s residents are exposed to many risks to their health. In particular, housing quality is concerning as it can lead to chronic conditions and long-term consequences (Smith, 2008). As DeMarco and Healey-Walsh (2019) note, population data gathered during community assessment is vital in supporting nurses’ research and intervention development. Leonard (2019) supports the findings of the windshield survey presented above – Hartford, similar to other
Cause of getting married Since the beginning of humanity, marriage has been in existence. However, the cause that leads to marriage between couples is viewed from different perspectives. Typically, marriage is caused by one partner falling in love with another, the desire to for the partners to have kids, and the hope for a better future. However, the resulting effects of marriage are many responsibilities and reduced social opportunities though it leads to a better future. The foundations of marriage are established when partners fall in love. Love might develop at first sight between two people leading to their marriage, or sometimes takes long before marriage occurs. In addition to that, emotional support, intimacy, companionship, and the sense of fulfillment to both partners in a love might also culminate in a marriage. Therefore, love between married couples exists as a consuming fire, leaving them no chance but the desire to live together and sustains their marriage as a family. Prevailing love between couples engaged in a marriage consumes them like death and fire, thus, making love a compelling force. However, marriage gets complete when kids are born to the newly created family. Thus, kids are of the motivating factors in marriage. When
The Man in the High Castle is a novel written by Philip K. Dick in 1963 (Dick). It belongs to the genre of alternative history that is not very common (Kellogg par. 5). Author describes the sequence of events after the end of the World War II that has resulted in the victory of Nazi (David par.8). The book tells about collaboration and competition of Germany and Japan that belong to the number of the most powerful countries that rule the world (Gray par.1). Germany has turned into colonial empire and it continues to annihilate people who do not have right skin and eye color. As for Japan, it has extended the sphere of influence by capturing the territory of the Western United States (Chan par. 2). The relationships between two winners remain strained as they both have their own vision of our world’s future (Dunn par.17). There are many characters in this book and their interaction is shown in quite a detailed way. The seventh chapter of the book describes the dinner in the house of Paul and Betty Kasoura, and there are a few times when uneasy silence occurs; it is not easy for Childan and his Japanese friends to understand each other as they notice that he strongly supports the idea of racial inequality. Childan owns a shop selling antiques from America to Japanese collectors. Mr Tagomi who works in San-Francisco as a commercial secretary is one of Mr Childan’s standing customers. Robert Childan is considered to be one of the key characters of The Man in the High Castle as he makes a significant contribution into the unraveling of the plot. Being a supporter of the idea of Europeans’ prevalence over other people, he experiences a certain inner conflict. The majority of his clients are Japanese, and in course of communication, he gradually starts picking up their character traits. The ambiguousness of his opinion seems to increase as he visits the house of Paul and Betty Kasoura. He pays attention to Betty’s beauty and felinity; he notices that Paul and Betty really care about him as they cook a special dish and treat him with respect. Having noticed that, Childan comes to the conclusion that Europeans should look up to Asians. He sees Japanese as people who are able to notice and create beauty everywhere they go. Mr. Tagomi is a Japanese man who holds a senior position in the government of the Western States that belong to Japan in Philip Dick’s alternative history book. Being very rich, Tagomi spends big sums of money on antique items from the Childan’s shop. The doubleness of his personality seems to be obvious as we consider the reasons why he is fascinated by bric-a-brac. On the one hand, he has quite a developed aesthetic sensitivity; being surrounded with various beautiful things
Introduction Parole is universally defined as “releasing a prisoner before the jail term expires and then keeping an eye on the prisoner. The prisoner agrees to abide by certain terms and conditions for a specified period,” (Cole and Smith 521). Prisoners who are granted the parole status usually have good records and potential for growth and rehabilitation during the term of their imprisonment. Historically speaking, Captain Alexander Maconochie, an administrator of British penal colonies in Tasmania and elsewhere in the South Pacific was an important personality in developing the concept of parole in the nineteenth century. Maconochie acknowledged that prisoners could pass through stages of increasing responsibility and freedom (Cole and Smith 521). Main text Contemporarily speaking, parole was introduced in England and Wales in the 1967 Criminal Justice Act. Up until the mid-1980s, the philosophy of releasing prisoners before the end of sentence remained generally unchanged. All prisoners would have remission and their sentence reduced by one third on beginning their custodial sentence. Also, “prisoners could be released on parole for part or all of the middle third of their sentence and until the end of that period they would have supervision in the community,” (Ellis and Marshall 300-301). The 1986/7 Carlisle Committee recommended major changes to the system and most of the Committee’s recommendations were incorporated into the 1991 Criminal Justice Act. This Act was implemented in October 1992 and thus, a new system of early release was established. Globally, parole is practiced in many countries. The philosophies are very different, dictated by many varying racial and cultural aspects. When paroles are implemented, there are a number of advantages that could be realized for the mutual benefits of both the prisoner and the society. Overcrowding in prisons is manageable due to reduced population of prisoners. General trends indicate that the prison population has grown during most years. Since the Second World War, the rate of growth rose “from an average of 2.5% per year between 1945 and 1995 to an average of 3.8% per year since 1995” (Ministry of Justice Statistics Bulletin 4). By the beginning of 1995 the number of prisoners stood at 49,500 and by January 2009, this number had increased to 82,100 inmates. The increase in the rate of growth resulted in a 66% increase in the prison population. Other benefits of parole include among others, the reduction of incarceration costs. Successful rehabilitation programs of parolees are likely to reduce crimes and correct the criminal behaviour. Reintroduction of parolees back to society is possible and if she or he is able to maintain good
Current Event that Highlights the Issue The current event that was chosen was the recent rally that occurred in Connecticut wherein parents rallied for the implementation of education reform in order to give students from low income families a better shot at life through better standards of education. The focus of the rallies were to highlight what they believed was a social and civil rights issue due to what they perceived as a systemic issue that adversely impact children from low income households. One of the more noticeable aspects of income inequality can be seen in the impact that it has had on the current system of education within the U.S. Duncan explains this issue by showcasing the difference in performance between children from low income families and those from families that are from mid to high income ranges (Duncan 8). Simply put, children from the middle and upper class outperform their counterparts when it comes to the rate in which they are able to understand lessons, their method of creative thinking as well as aspects related to intuitive problem solving. Income inequality can be viewed as the unequal distribution of wealth and opportunities among different social classes. This can manifest in a variety of different instances such as the rich getting richer due to the opportunities given to them, while the poor get poorer due to the lack of possible opportunities that they can avail of. It is due to this that income inequality has become a hotly debated topic with multiple viewpoints regarding how it has negatively impacted society. The reason why this perspective was chosen as an example was due to its long lasting effects on the general population which can be traced to not only greater access to educational materials (i.e. iPads with educational applications, tutors, etc.) but also in the way in which they are children are taught differently. Private schools for the upper and middle class have been noted as having a far better standard of education resulting in the implementation of teaching practices that places a considerable emphasis on creative thinking and intellectual development as compared to the public school system that focuses more on rote learning techniques (i.e. memorization) due to the desire of local school systems to obtain high general evaluation scores when it comes to standardized tests for their students. This ends up being the perpetuation of income inequality since students from high income families become more likely to get into college and attain jobs with large salaries as compared to their working class counterparts. It is due to this obvious trend that protesters in Moral Issues Involved with the Problem The moral issue in the case of
