...Cultural competence is defined as the capacity to understand an individual coming from different groups and backgrounds. The major measures utilized in the Davis and Cho (2005) article to evaluate the efficiency of the International Leadership in Educational Technology (ILET) project were stated as “evidence of the development of intercultural competence was analyzed from artifacts, self-report, interviews, and surveys” (p.1). The three strategies that were proven are: Sojourn Abroad, Summer Academy, and Online Reading. After such study, these doctoral students showed flexibility, openness and acceptance. Regarding the Sojourn Abroad strategy, the students improved their skills on educational technology, research, and assisted them in improving their dissertation topics. The Summer Academy students stated that the academy helped them in their academic interests and to investigate unfamiliar academic areas and cultures. The Online Reading group students did not improve their academic performance, but they stated that it assisted them in creating new ideas and knowledge to help them in everyday life experiences. Davis and Cho (2005) clearly explained the meaning and the purpose of cultural competence. Although it is a clear definition, they did not provide a valid measure to prevent prejudiced responses. Also, self-reports, interviews, email interviews, and survey questionnaires have been utilized to gather information. “Analyses produced descriptive statistics related...

...goals as a background. Back in the day when I was 14 years old I went to a soccer academy for the summer and I have to say that it was one of the most beautiful, memorable, marvelous experience of my life. Most people that knew me were only bringing me down, including my mother. I never really paid attention to what people had to say because all I ever wanted to do and still do is to be able to play. Only two persons believed in me and to me, that was enough. My dad and my coach were the only ones who were there pushing me to my best both mentally and physically. Although, it took me a bunch of hard work, patience, effort, perseverance and believing in myself once I was in the academy everything fell like heaven to me. Everything started in France that’s where I first started playing. One day I was playing in a tournament a semi final game, while playing against a hard team I went for the ball and I happen to get tackled and injured real badly. My mom who was watching the game was frightened of course thinking the worst that my leg was probably broken because of the swelling. The morning after, I had an appointment with the doctor and I remember him saying, “ no more soccer for the next 3 months you have a second degree sprained ankle. I’m going to need you to rest, ice, compress and elevate your foot at least 3 times a day.” I was devastated knowing that the summer and my chance to go to the academy was only a couple weeks away. My mom was really mad at me for some reason; She...

...painter, A. B. Krüger, his first instruction in the art of painting; later, through the influence of Colonel Guichard ("Quintus Icilius"), he succeeded in entering the Berlin Academy of Arts, and became intimately connected with Lesueur, Daniel Chodowiecki and Frish. At Bach's insistence, life studies were introduced at the Academy. Bach soon distinguished himself with skillfully executed copies of old works, and, upon arriving in Warsaw with Count Ossolinski in 1780, achieved considerable success. Later he accompanied Count John Potocki on his travels; copied paintings in Düsseldorf; and was made member of the local academy on 15 December 1785. Thence he went to Paris, and afterward to Italy, where he remained for four years (1786–1792), studying at the expense of his patron, Potocki, at first in Rome - where he applied himself chiefly to the productions of Raphael and Michelangelo — and subsequently in Portici, where the antiquities of Herculaneum held his attention. Elected a member of the Academy of Florence on 9 December 1788, he visited Venice, Vienna and Berlin, at which latter place he exhibited his productions — copies, for the most part - of works of Italian masters. In 1792, Bach was appointed a director and professor of the Breslau Art Academy and on June 23, 1794, he became member of the Academy of Berlin. Two years later, in conjunction with C. F. Benkendorf, he started a journal called Torso, devoted to "ancient and modern art"; but after a short time its publication...

...Task 4 The Private Sector is usually composed of organisations that are privately owned and not part of the government. These normally include corporations both profit and non-profit. For example Tesco. Public Sector is usually composed of organisations that are owned and operated by the government for example Hammersmith Academy. Usually the aim of a public service is to provide services to the local community. Private sector aims are mostly to create a profit and provide the best services to their customers and sometimes local community. Influence of Stakeholders. The primary aim of Tesco is to make profit. Customers contribute to profit levels and turnover through buying products and services. Customers do not want to have to spend an excessive amount of money to buy products. So if the product is cheaper in one store, such as Tesco then they will shop at Tesco and this will also attract more customers. Two of Tesco’s corporate objectives are “Offering customers the best value for money and the most competitive prices” and “meeting the needs of customers by constantly seeking, and acting on, their opinions regarding innovation, product quality, choice, store facilities and service”. This shows to us that customers at Tesco are very much one of the biggest influencers in Tesco’s profits and objectives. The Managers at Tesco influence the business every day by the decisions they make on the Store. Managers are there to implement company policy and formulate strategy which...

... We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to West Point for this upcoming school year. We have accepted you because you demonstrate the characteristics of a successful West Point cadet and a blossoming soldier. You have displayed great leadership and military success as well as tremendous courage and determination beyond the average applicant. Your courage and determination has beyond proved you will be a dedicated cadet and grow to become a powerful soldier. This is prominent even in your youth, like the time you tamed Bucephalus. Plutarch writes “He ran alongside the animal for a little way, calming him down by stroking him, and then, when he was full of spirit and courage, he quietly threw aside his cloak with a light spring vaulted safely on his back…Finally, when he saw that the horse was free of his fears and impatient to show his speed, he gave him his head and urged his forward” (Doc. 1). This moment depicts your patience and determination to assure the horse that it was safe when everyone else in the kingdom believed he was too “wild and unmanageable”. Not only have you shown great dauntlessness, but you have great hopes for the future. Evidence suggests, “Alexander had great plans for the future: for the consolidation and organization of his empire; for geographic exploration; for new cities, roads, and harbors; perhaps even further conquests in the West” (83). Your endeavor to conquer and improve the current world displays your true dedication...

...maintain an academy in the sports industry, under the name Touchline Football Academy or TFA, specialized in coaching and training members in the sport of soccer. Our activities will be based in a sports facility in the heart of Montreal at the Soccerplexe whereby the collaboration agreement with that facility dictates the permission of our use of their soccer fields in return to a variable fee; which is a predetermined percentage of our total revenues. The academy will also hold an office located on First avenue in Lachine, which will be the headquarter of our operations as to management and conferencing, as well as a liaison with parent and business acquaintances that needs addressing in a professional fashion. Our academy will reap its revenues mainly from memberships sold to members on a monthly basis. Other revenues coming in are from sponsorships, as well as the sales of kits and equipment. Our targeted customers are males, residing in Montreal, and in the ages between 5 to 22+ years old. A mass marketing campaign will be conducted as a dedicated effort during the initiation of the business, in an attempt to acquire the maximum exposure and market outreach possible. This marketing strategy will be costly and require a significant budget; however, it will give us access to the wide potential market in this industry, as shown by the demographics research (elaborated in detail within this booklet).

In March 2012 Vincent, a delivery driver working for Fancy Foods Sdn Bhd, told Wanda that he had been left a large sum of money under the will of his aunt and asked if she had any advice.

...Academies and Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) liabilities: parliamentary minute Provision of a DfE guarantee that the Department will meet any outstanding Local Government Pension Scheme liabilities on Academy Trust closure 1. It is normal practice, when a government department proposes to undertake a contingent liability in excess of £250,000 for which there is no specific statutory authority, for the department concerned to present to Parliament a Minute giving particulars of the liability created and explaining the circumstances; and to refrain from incurring the liability until fourteen parliamentary sitting days after the issue of the Minute, except in cases of special urgency. Background 2. Under the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) Regulations 2008 an academy proprietor (i.e. the company which runs the academy and called an “Academy Trust”) is required to offer all of its non-teaching staff membership of the LGPS. In England the scheme is managed locally in 79 different Administering Authorities. 3. Some academies are experiencing significantly higher LGPS employer contribution rates to those set when they were a local authority maintained school. The main reason for this is because academies are not funded through the local authority which previously gave assurance to the Administering Authority that LGPS costs would be met in the long term. We are seeking to regain parity for academies with the maintained school sector regarding the risks...

We are a self-governing non-profit charitable trust. Harris Church of England became a sponsored academy within this trust in 2014. Is a smaller than average secondary school. Entries have fallen since the school was placed in special measures by Ofsted in March 2013 but are now recovering in January 2014. Significant changes followed to senior leadership and governance. A new chaplain was appointed in 2016 as a shared arrangement with another diocesan school. Extra pupil premium funding is received for a third of entrants, which is above average. The proportion with special education needs is slightly below other schools. The commitment is that all Academies within the Diocese of Coventry Multi Academy Trust will be recognised for their distinctive and inclusive Christian ethos and for the impact that this has on raising educational standards. Each Academy will demonstrate its Christian distinctiveness by providing an inspirational and holistic education which enables all children and staff to develop and achieve to their full potential.
