... Abstract My goal during this essay are Identifying the major schools of thought in psychology and we will examine their major underlying assumptions. I will also identify the primary biological foundations of psychology linked to behavior. There are so many parts to psychology that are completely different it is important to know that psychology is a science. Theoretical science but still a science non-the less; each of the four schools of thought are different in many ways, and each school of thought has their own specialist like anything else. Example; “It’s like a doctor, it’s not any doctor its one you have to see specifically like an OB or a neurologist.” In psychology there are four major schools of thought evolutionary, psychodynamic, cognitive and Behavioral, along with the biological foundations. While researching through information I found this definition of psychology “Psychology is a science of behavior and mental functioning that uses both quantitative and qualitative research studies to develop and test hypotheses and put forward theories and models that explain human behavior”...

...the parts, which connect them into a whole (see holism*). The particular arrangement of elements and relations determines an emergent* organization, or system*. That organization is abstract, independent of the concrete substance of the elements, which may be atoms, molecules, cells, transistors, or people. This entails that the same principles of organization can be found in different domains: physics, chemistry, biology, psychology, sociology, technology... One of the aims of systems theory is to unify different scientific disciplines by uncovering these general principles (see unity of science*). Systems theory studies characteristics common to many or all complex systems. These include: system-environment boundary*, input*, output*, process*, state*, evolution*, hierarchy*, goal-directedness*, information*. Most of these concepts are shared with the closely related domain of cybernetics*, which focuses on communication* and control*. These concepts have been made more precise in elaborate mathematical...

...Science and math integration unit I chose a culminating activity to use after the students had completed learning about fractions, ratios and percentages in math and in life science learning about the ecosystems and inquiry and observations to solve problems. The activity I chose has students looking at trees within a forest near the school. My rationale for selecting this project is that students in this area do a lot of hunting this time of year and are outside in the wilderness a lot during the month of October. I thought that this lesson would make them more aware of their environment and provide them a different way to look at their surroundings before they went off to the mountains for hunting elk and deer. I believe the students will be very interested in this unit of study and also it will help them to be more observant as they are hunting this next month. I tried to write a unit of study that students in this area would enjoy doing, one that would fit with their lifestyle and have a meaningful positive outcome upon completion. This is a summary of a culminating unit for science and math. Students will measure off a section of the forest and count quaking aspen trees and lodge pole pine trees within the measured off area. Students will then use the 12 processes of science and math skills to answer questions and complete investigations to solve the science question. The students need to collect data, chart it and analyze it to answer questions using math skills...

...determination. While it is not an exact science, it is, nevertheless, the art of defining probability in a fairly precise manner” (Broder, 2013 (p. 1). Risk management is a systematic, analytical process considering the likelihood of risky events, actions to reduce the risks, and to mitigate the consequences of the event. Although risk cannot always be described or eliminated management can enhance the protection from known or potential threat. The three elements involved in determining potential risk are assessment of threat, vulnerabilities, and criticality. The following will address the three potential risks for management in justice and security organizations. Planning for the risk, cost, benefits, and the role of nature in management’s risk assessment (Decker, 2001). Planning for Risk and Identifying Resources When planning for risk the first step for management is to determine the risk and decide what is an acceptable amount of loss. The basic tasks of risk management are to identify the assets needing protection, kinds of risk, probability of a risk occurrence, and dollar value affecting the organization. When identifying the assets people, money, manufactured products, and industrial processes, are just a few items that need to be included. Identifying the risk may involve kidnapping, extortion, internal theft, external theft, fire, earthquake, hurricane, and other manmade or natural events. The probability is not a science it is an art of projecting probabilities...

According to Inkeles, culture is the social heritage, all the knowledge, beliefs, customs, and skills that are available to members of a society (Inkeles, 1964). The famous Dutch behavioral scientist, Geert Hofstede defined culture as the collective mental programming of a people in an environment. He later defined culture as the collective programming of the mind which distinguishes the members of one group from another (Muriithi N, 2003). Organizational Culture Edgar Schein says that organizational culture is developed over time as people in the organization learn to deal successfully with problems of external adaptation and internal integration. It becomes the common language and the common background (Schein E. , 1999). Culture starts with leadership, is reinforced with the accumulated learning of the organizational members...

...the CIO in a large enterprise delegates technical decisions to employees more familiar with details. Usually, a CIO proposes the information technology an enterprise will need to achieve its goals and then works within a budget to implement the plan. Typically, a CIO is involved with analyzing and reworking existing business processes, with identifying and developing the capability to use new tools, with reshaping the enterprise's physical infrastructure and network access, and with identifying and exploiting the enterprise's knowledge resources. Many CIOs head the enterprise's efforts to integrate the Internet and the World Wide Web into both its long-term strategy and its immediate business plans. The prominence of the CIO position has risen greatly as information technology has become a more important part of business. The CIO may be a member of the executive board of the organization. While the CIO job title originated in the US, is slowly changing by replacing IT Director as the senior IT executive title in Europe and Asia. While no specific qualification is typical of CIOs in general, historically many CIOs have degrees in computer science, software engineering, or information systems....

...How To: Use Comparing Strategies DQ3: HELPING STUDENTS PRACTICE AND DEEPEN THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF NEW KNOWLEDGE Element 17 Examining Similarities and Differences Comparing is the process of identifying similarities and differences between ideas or things. A variety of strategies can be used when designing comparison activities. We will discuss sentence stems, Venn diagrams, double bubble diagrams and comparison matrices. Sentence Stem Comparisons This strategy can be used to have the students compare and contrast people, characters, places, events, concepts or processes. The comparisons can be general or specific. Marzano’s Becoming a Reflective Teacher, gives the following examples: General – House cats are similar to lions because ____________________. House cats are different than lions because _______________________. Specific – Sherlock Holmes and Gandalf are both characters who enjoy solving mysteries, but they are different because ____________________________. After a gym teacher has provided a series of critical-input experiences on baseball and fast pitch softball, he might assign a sentence stem assignment comparing and contrasting the two sports. A completed example can be found in Marzano’s A Handbook for the Art and Science of Teaching and looks something like this. Baseball and fast pitch softball are similar because they both… • Have 4 bases in a diamond shape • Have 9 defensive players. • Have the same ball/strike counts: 4 balls = walk & 3 strikes = out ...

... Recognizing Faces Paper Face recognition develops slowly throughout one’s life. Recognizing a face can be a difficult for the individual and also for the brain system that processes it. The complexity of recognizing individual faces can be a difficult task at times. Recognizing faces also includes looking at an individual’s emotional expression and then being able to take that information and processing it. This paper will analyze the cognitive processes involved with face recognition Face recognition, identification, and classification Facial identification is essential for recognition of persons in the social context and for recognition of members within our society. The basic process of visual perception includes translating and incoming stimulus into a perception and memory. An individual will initially see an object or a person and this information then gets processed through the brain. Bottom up and top down processing plays a critical role in object recognition. When we first look at an object we process it, this is called bottom up processing and then we apply previous knowledge to that object which is known as top down processes. There is also a process when we recognize an object; we match an incoming object with stored information that helps us to recognize what is before us. A study was conducted by Palmer, Rsich and Chase on the perspective effects...
