INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This personality system is based on research by the psychologist Carl Jung and is widely used. The Myers-Briggs categorizes personality along four dimensions. Each dimension has two opposite preferences associated with it. Combining your preference from each of the four dimensions will define your personality according to one of 16 possible types. The four dimensions are: introversion/extraversion (I/E); sensing/intuition (S/N); thinking/feeling (T/F); and judging/perceiving (J/P). Compare your personal list of traits to your preferences on each of the four dimensions on the Myers-Briggs. For example, does your list indicate you are more of an 'I' or an 'E'? Do you have more words related to thinking or feeling? You might, for instance, be a ISFP (introverted, sensing, feeling, perceiving) personality based on the traits on your list. With this system of personality classification you define yourself according to nine different personality types. Although there is usually some overlap between the nine personality types within a person, most people are more similar to one type than the other eight. Evaluate your list of traits to see if they can be described by one of the nine types of personality according to the Enneagram system. Look for clues that you are mostly a: reformer, helper, achiever, individualist, investigator, loyalist, enthusiast, challenger, or peacemaker. For example, if you see traits on your list like: mediator, problem-solver, and diplomatic you may be a peacemaker. Visit http://www.enneagraminstitute.com to learn more about using this personality classification system. You can use this system to define your personality along four temperaments or types: the guardian, artisan, idealist, or rational. Similar to the Myers-Briggs and the Big Five, there is a great deal of research related to the Keirsey system. Use your list of traits to help you determine which of the four personality types, or temperaments, is most like you. For example, do you have traits on your personal list like imaginative, peaceful, and optimistic that suggest that you are an idealist? Many people use their Myers-Briggs type along with their Keirsey temperament to define their personality. You can also take a short form of the Keirsey Sort at http://www.keirsey.com.

SUMMARY: Explore the Myers-Briggs system. Find your Enneagram type. Use the Keirsey Temperament Sorter.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You should go home if you are feeling nauseous or vomiting too frequently, coughing excessively, unable to fight off fatigue, or otherwise unable to maintain a reasonable level of concentration for more than a few minutes. Anything more extreme than these conditions may warrant emergency care altogether. You're your boss you're at your limit and you need to be excused. These conditions also greatly increase the risk of you contaminating someone else. The flu and other illnesses will likely leave you with less energy than you normally have during the day as your body fights the disease. So allow yourself more time to complete tasks. You should expect a lower level of productivity if you go to work while experiencing the flu or another illness. Don't push yourself to get as much work done as you would normally. Do what workload you can within your limits, then take a break. Take your medicine if necessary, perform one of the remedies, or just relax. You can resume working after you had a chance to recover some energy. You might try working for one hour then take a 15 minute rest period. Repeat this throughout the day. Make sure your boss is well informed of your condition so they can make arrangements for an area for you to rest if necessary. They will also know you are not just wasting time. Prepare foods to improve your immune system. Take a can of soup, vitamin c rich fruits (like oranges), and some proteins (lean meats, poultry, eggs) that you can stomach in meal containers with you to work. The flu or illness you have may upset your stomach and the medicine you take may aggravate this feeling further. However, you need to keep up your nutrients to help your recovery. Soup is good for eating especially if it's hard to swallow without pain. Eat hot chicken soup. You can sprinkle in pepper, add garlic, add curry powder, or put in a dash of other pungent spices to thin out the mucus congesting you. The soup can also improve your white blood count in your immune system. Drink orange juice to build up your vitamin C and folic acid for your immune system. Dairy is okay unless it's generating too much mucus or upsetting your stomach. Keep on eating good protein sources like lean meats, poultry, fish, legumes, dairy, eggs, nuts, and seeds. These have vitamins B6 and B12 which help your immune system. Selenium and zinc also help your immune system. These minerals are found in protein-rich foods too. Other immune system boosters include grapefruits, lemons, limes, watermelon, kale, collard greens, broccoli, and cabbage. Start slowly with 4 to 8 ounces at a time and use clear drinks at first if you're suffering diarrhea or nausea. Especially when feeling nauseous or suffering diarrhea you can also try chipped ice, fruit juices, sports drinks, and ginger ale. Dehydration is a significant risk while suffering the flu or some other illnesses. So you want to make sure you are taking in plenty of water during the work day. If you go to work with the flu or similar illnesses then you should drink lots of liquids like water, clear soups, broth, or electrolyte replacement drinks until the fever resolves. Some other ways to get fluids in include gelatin and ice pops.
Summary: Go home when you are too sick. Take frequent breaks. Eat lighter but maintain your strength. Drink plenty of fluids.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Whether you want to start a college that can grant full degrees or you want to start a school that specializes in a specific field, such as electrical engineering or a culinary school, you need a comprehensive list of all of the courses you plan to offer. You'll present it to state education boards for accreditation and so you can attract prospective faculty and students. For a full-degree granting college, create a list of general courses, such as Biology 101, and then build the list into more specific and focused courses. Look up educational requirements in your area so you can make sure you include all of the required classes of an accredited college. Develop a curriculum for each of the courses you plan to offer so your college is more professional and legitimate. Look online for existing curricula and courses that have been used by other colleges for each of the subjects. Look for common components and use it as a model to make sure your curricula are up to current standards and aren't missing any major elements. For instance, if you're putting together a curriculum for a basic anatomy course, look online for other anatomy class curriculum so you can make sure yours isn't missing anything. Creating a class curriculum from scratch is much harder than using an established curriculum as a sample. Separate the course into units that cover a specific element or topic. Then, break down each unit into specific classes and what will be covered. To help reinforce the lessons of each class, craft assignments that students must complete to help them fully understand the main topic of each unit. Use the acronym SWBAT, which stands for "Students Will Be Able To" to help guide your units. Ask yourself what you expect the students to be able to do or know at the end of each unit. Incorporate tests and quizzes designed to assess the students' understanding of the topic. Comprehensive tests or assessments should be included at the halfway point and the end of each course so students can show that they understand the material. Write a syllabus for each class that lists the units and topics that will be covered as well as any textbooks, books, or other materials that each student will need to have for the class. Include a description of the course, the grading and evaluation policy, as well as classroom policies such as class rules, homework, and make-up assignments.

SUMMARY:
Put together a list of courses your college will offer. Review existing course curriculum as a model for yours. Write out the lessons and assignments for each course. Create a list of required materials for each course.
