...AC MILAN Fall 2014 Part 1: The Company Back on December 16, 1899 Milan Foot-Ball and Cricket Club was officially formed, but the first time Milan's name appeared publicly was on Monday, December 18 in an article by the Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper. Founded by English lace-maker expatriate Herbert Kilpin and businessman Alfred Edwards, the AC Milan become quickly one the most prestigious football teams in Italy and Europe. Thus, the fact it was founded by English men made the club named Milan, the city name pronounced in English, instead of pronouncing it Milano, as for the all-time rival FC Internazionale Milano. The Associazione Calcio Milan has spent almost its entire history in the top flight of the Italian Football Championship, the Serie A. To date, AC Milan is the second most titled club in the world with 7 champions’ league titles, among other international trophies, right behind the Real Madrid and its 10 champions’ league titles (taking into consideration that Real Madrid won half of its champions’ league titles in the 60’s.) However, under the last 28 years of Italian Billionaire and Italy’s former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi’s chiarmanship, the Associazione Calcio Milan have won more titles than any other team worldwide. Thus, Silvio Berlusconi is considered as the most successful football club president of all times, even if there is a debate about it since Real Madrid fans consider Santiago Bernabeu as the owner of this title because of his 60’s...

...Match-Fixing: the Culprit of the Loss of Integrity in Italy’s Football Leagues Roxanne Teacher: Dee Submission Date: 31/08/2015 Abstract The purpose of this report is to reveal that match-fixing has occurred in Italy over the past decade and to explain whether the measures taken by Italian government reduce football corruption. Resulting from high profitability and domestic-owned football structure, match-fixing has become an enormous problem. This report also demonstrates two match-fixing scandals in 2006 and 2011, which mechanisms are pursuing sportive and economic results, respectively. According to the European code of conduct, the manipulation of match-fixing is unethical. To protect the integrity of the sport, the Italian government punish the perpetrators heavily and investigate the criminal organisations privately. Owing to this contribution, corruption decreases significantly. Therefore, a conclusion that under the government’s help, Italy football matches achieve its integrity can be made. It is recommended that by increasing the punishment level for the perpetrators, educating football players and founding a well-sourced security department, match-fixing can be tackled.

...Ranch Golf Club Case Study The Ranch Golf Club opened in 2001 in Southwick, Massachusetts. The Hall family decided to turn their dairy farm into a golf club. They would provide their land, while they enlisted the help of Rowland Bates to coordinate the project. Bates found investors to provide the capital and they started work. The investors were Peter and Korby Clark, Bernard Chiu, and Ronald Izen. It is the Ranch’s goal to be the best golf club in New England. In 2007, the Ranch Golf Club was ranked as the number one best public golf course in Massachusetts. Communication is important in any aspect of life, especially in managing a business. Without clear communication the managers at The Ranch would be unsure of expectations. Communication is not a one-time thing; it must be continual in order to be effective. Communication involves a give and take. To communicate you cannot just talk; there has to be giving and receiving, or feedback. According to Lussier and Achua, feedback is “the process of verifying messages and determining if objectives are being met” (Lussier & Achua, p. 197). As it says in the case study, “Nothing takes the place of sitting down face-to-face during regular weekly meetings and listening to each other to continually improve operations” (Lussier & Achua, p. 197). As manager of The Ranch, Peter Clark must be prepared to receive feedback, which is critical for success. Management at The Ranch uses feedback to ensure “the players are getting service...

...RUNNING HEAD: Exceptionalities Teaching for Exceptionalities Grashal Parker Grand Canyon University: SPE-526 December 2, 2011 Teaching for Exceptionalities Children with learning differences have always been a part of the community. Teaching children with learning differences began as a one on one setting, usually separate from typical schools. In the past, students’ with exceptionalities were often segregated from the regular classroom. Mainstreaming began the process of integrating them with nondisabled students, and inclusion takes the process further by creating a web of services. Special education is often times as diverse as the schools and school systems that incorporate it. Most common approaches include: self-contained classrooms, pullout services, and inclusion. Inclusion is most effective when regular education and special education teachers closely collaborate on instructional adaptations for learners with exceptionalities (Heward, 2009). In every classroom there are students with exceptionalities. These exceptionalities may include a student who has an IEP and needs extra accommodations/modifications or a gifted student that needs to be challenged beyond the curriculum. As an educator, one needs to make sure that each student is able to succeed in the classroom. Talent, imagination and skill are attributes teachers must possess. When working with children who have diverse needs these attributes must be perfected (Fogel, 2005). There may be some areas...

...Introduction In this unit of study, one of the assessment items requires you to complete a concept map. It is anticipated that this module will assist you in how to develop concept maps, by providing you with the theoretical background, but also the practical means as to how to construct a concept map. In this unit of study they have been included to assist students with understanding and interpreting complex altered physiology and how this may manifest in patients. Concept maps are constructs that assist students with understanding complex material. They are graphical representations of concepts that deal with specific subject matter (Novak and Canas, 2008; All and Havens, 1997). The word ‘concept’ means ‘a general notion or idea, or scheme or plan’. With this in mind, concept maps are constructions of successive concepts that assist in developing a compendium for developing knowledge and understanding about a more complex concept or concepts. Concept maps are especially helpful for health professional student learning by providing a visual ‘road map’ of patient conditions. They may be used to understand the underlying altered physiology and pathophysiological processes that have occurred in patients, or used to develop management strategies, such as nursing practice. For instance, when patients develop an increase in core temperature often they have an increase in heart rate that coincides with the hyperthermic state. The relationship between one concept (increased core...

Course: Msc (Science Communication) Faculty of Science National University of Singapore Ganeshini D/O Sri kanthan A0075383Y Name: Student ID: Project Supervisor: A/P Helmer Aslaksen ABSTRACT The Ministry of Education (MOE) recognizes the importance of student engagement in the classroom. However, keeping students engaged in the classroom is a challenge for many educators these days. Student engagement is a contested concept, theorized in a variety of different ways within academic literature. This projects aims to define and understand the concept of student engagement. The purpose of this project was also to find out the usage of engagement based approaches in the classroom. The survey results in this project indicate that teachers do use these approaches in the classroom but not frequently enough. Usage of engagement based approaches in the classroom can be increased with changes in attitudes of teachers, sufficient support from schools and changes in modes of assessment. i AKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following people who have helped me in making this Masters Project interesting and a memorable one: Associate Professor Helmer Aslaksen for his guidance and patience. Without his constant assurance and encouragement this would not be possible. Colleagues and friends who contributed...

...Henri Fayol and Zero Tolerance Policies Lee SCHIMMOELLER1 Abstract Zero tolerance policies have been increasingly popular in both education and business. Henri Fayol was the one of the earliest and influential thinkers in modern management theory. He defined management as a body of knowledge and defined his 14 administrative principles. It is an interesting exercise to apply Fayol’s teachings to the theory of zero tolerance and attempt to determine what Fayol would think of this new management technique. Keywords: Management, Fayol, zero tolerance, administration. JEL classification: B10, L20. Introduction Zero tolerance is a management technique that is finding its way into many of the administration policies of organizations, including the school systems in the United States. Administrative decrees declare that this organization with have zero tolerance for weapons or illegal drugs, or sexual harassment. Administrators often endorse zero tolerance as it makes a strong statement of organizational discipline and takes little discretion which may be criticized. Critics of zero tolerance claim it is ineffective and leads to random punishments such as 10 year olds suspended for 365 days because her mother packed a knife in her lunch to use to cut up her apple. When she opened her lunchbox she immediately turned it in to her teacher but was still suspended‘(American Psychological Association Zero Tolerance Task Force). What would the early theorist of management thought think...

...Overview This paper offers the non-subject specialist an overview of the literature which has influenced the development of listening and interpersonal skills in UK higher education. It refers to articles, seminal texts and writers within the field. In order to provide some context, the first section of the review covers some issues relating to the definition of listening and interpersonal skills and some examples are presented to demonstrate their interdependence. The importance of these skills within occupational and educational domains is also highlighted. The review then goes on to place listening and interpersonal skills in context by exploring historical perspectives, factors influencing current developments and providing an indication of issues which may affect future development. The paper introduces different approaches to listening and interpersonal skills within some key disciplines and considers the extent to which the teaching and learning of listening and interpersonal skills has been integrated within these discipline. In conclusion we consider emerging themes relating to advances in technology and widening participation, including the cross cultural agenda. A glance at the definitions section below will reveal the substantial overlap that exists between this topic and some of the other LearnHigher learning areas, most notably those relating to oral communications and group work. Although we acknowledge this overlap at various points during the review, readers...

As school violence has increased so have the legislative and regulatory policymaking mandates c a l l i n g for increased disciplinary consequences for inappropriate stud ent behavior. Ethical problem-solving and decision-making have taken a back seat to reactive discipline by school officials. Media publicity has forced proactive principals to become reactive impulsive decision-makers. In this article, Starratt’s three-part model for ethical school administration – encompassing the ethics of critique, justice, and care – is applied to a fictional scenario and the ethical dilemma that evolves. Recommendations for practice are offered in a proposed resolution of the dilemma within the context of a central conclusion: if the school administrator of the twenty- first century is to...
