...“What Is Your Writing Process” When composing, it is imperative that I am in the proper mindset. If I am not, I will remain at a standstill for hours. Being in the proper mindset the words and ideas come easily. Once I am comfortable I begin… 1. I must be in a quiet room. (Sometimes I play music for inspiration) 2. Have a cup of coffee or a cup of tea. 3. A clear mind. 4. Depending on the topic, I will read all required documentation, and do my due diligence on the topic if necessary. This allows me to process and formulate ideas in my mind. 5. I always scribble my first draft on a sheet of paper. This sheet will contain random thoughts and ideas that come to mind. It could be a word, a sentence, even a statement. As I continue writing...

...Activity 3 Section 2: Process design and productivity A transition from strategy to results means the organization stops planning and begins executing. In the 21st century, the planning-to-execution step means transitioning faster. Time spent on planning must be efficient with planning outputs easily converted into executable actions. Many examples can be used to indicate an emphasis on planning. These include Just-In-Time and Lean Management. The organizations that were successful with these planning initiatives maintained a view of the roadmap towards implementation. Planning must be optimized and not allowed to continue for an unending period; otherwise, a point is reached after which there are diminishing returns. Moving from strategy to results emphasizes anticipatory management or a forecasting style of leadership. Thinking about what may happen during implementation aids in the establishment of contingencies. Environmental monitoring or scanning is also needed. Feedback must be anticipated and planned for integration into the current strategy. Required Reading: Chiplunkar, C., Deshmukh, S. G., & Chattopadhyay, R. (2003). Goel, S., & Chen, V. (2008).

...The Paper-Free Process Revolution Handbook Automating your manual (and paper-centric) processes will revolutionize your business—making it faster, flexible, and more responsive Edited and written by Betsy Fanning and Bryant Duhon Introduction Let’s get this straight from the beginning; using less paper isn’t just about “going green” or saving the rain forest. Using less paper in your business processes will revolutionize your business—making it faster, flexible, and more responsive to the needs of your customers. At least since the Sumerians wrote down transactions on baked clay tablets, documents have been the foundation of business. And while we no longer need to lug around those heavy clay documents (and watch out for water); if you’re using paper to manage your business then you aren’t any more efficient—or faster—than a civilization that existed 4,000 years ago. It doesn’t have to be this way. The technology is available. More importantly, the technology works. We have been scanning documents and moving them around business electronically for over 25 years; and that’s a good start. But, to match the pace of business today; content must be mobilized and harnessed for business use as soon as possible. Advances in scanning speeds, declining prices, and imaging and recognition software have combined to dramatically improve the concept of the digital mailroom—converting those inbound paper documents to digital format to directly feed business process; accounts payable...

...Consultation Process Based on the relevant research presented briefly in this paper, as a consultant, the next step is figuring out who to interview, finding agencies that have already adopted a model addressing cultural and linguistic concerns to see how their progress is going. As well as agencies who have not adopted a model but may need help seeking one. Lastly, reaching out to local individuals in the communities to get feedback on their thoughts about mental health services available to their usage in addition to their perception of satisfaction with services provided. After all, the goal is to implement interventions that will help remove such disparities. Focusing primarily on the urban areas of New York, I interviewed 3 clinicians...

...#2941 Comp I Process Paper 12 April 2013 Monkey Bread It has been widely known as one of the most phenomenal breakfast foods ever, or as a snack throughout the day. I know in my case it’s an all day long kind of snack. The gooey, mouth-watering, caramelized cinnamon and sugar of monkey bread hits the spot no matter what time of day; but without one simple step to this mouth-watering medley it just wouldn’t be the same. To make monkey bread you want to initially make sure you have all your ingredients; which might mean taking a quick trip to the store. Most of the common household things you won’t need to pickup up: such as margarine, sugar, cinnamon, pam (or your choice of cooking spray), a pot, wooden spoon, bunt pan, and a platter to put your finished product on. Unless you’re running low on any of these items, the only things needed from the store are a can of Grand’s Flaky Layer biscuit’s and a can of Grand’s Home-style Buttermilk biscuit’s. Once you have obtained your ingredients and materials, you want to open up both cans of biscuit’s and preheat the oven to 350 degrees so that it is nice and warm by the time you are ready to use it. With the biscuits you just opened, you will also want to mix up about two cups of cinnamon and sugar. Once you have that mixture as you like, you can begin cutting up the biscuits. You want to cut one biscuit from each can into bite size pieces and place them both in the cinnamon and sugar. The cinnamon and sugar should...

...Preparing a Horse to Ride (Informational) Why does it take so long to get a horse ready to ride? Grooming is an essential part of the process. The whole purpose of cleaning the horse off before it is ridden is to make sure there is no dirt, cuts, or injuries on the skin and to keep your tack clean and well maintained. It isn’t healthy to wash a horse off with soap and water all the time, as it dries out the skin and hair. If the dirt is allowed to stay on the skin it will begin to look bad and may also cause crud. It’s not just about the ride, it’s about the proper care and health of your animal. It takes time to groom a horse and adjust the tack correctly, so the horse is comfortable and willing to work. Tack that is not properly adjusted can cause injuries to the horse and rider. The steps one takes in the process of preparing the horse to ride needs to flow in a specific order to save time in the long run. Following the steps that are prepared below will also help to create an everlasting bond between horse and rider. Begin by gathering all the necessary supplies that are needed and bring them to the location where the horse will be stationed for the grooming and tacking process. It’s convenient to have all of the grooming supplies in one container, make making sure everything needed in is in the container to begin with so there won’t be a need to take the ever so annoying trip back to the tack room for forgotten items. The container should include: a hard...

...aloud. The benefits of reading aloud my writing are to make sure the order of ideas in a paper to make sense, see grammatical mistakes, and gaps in your explanation. Therefore, rereading my writing will help me to edit, change, add, and delete information on my papers. While taking English course at Mission College, I have learned that revision is the process of returning to a previously drafted piece of writing to incorporate feedback, add on, and refine specific elements of the assignment. In addition, revising builds my understanding of writing as a process that is ongoing, reflective, and nuanced, and can facilitate self-assessment and academic goal setting....

...Reflection Paper Assignments Due Dates: March 20, April 3, May 1 Overview These reflection papers are the chance for you to review your recent journal entries (or the sum total, if that helps) and to synthesize some thread of thinking or learning that you find in there. You might build on a single entry or on something bridging multiple entries, but the point is to capture something that you are learning. We expect the paper to have some over-arching, coherent argument so that it is not simply a string of thoughts. A string of thoughts is fine for your journal entries, but here we do want some synthesis. You should not spend time summarizing your activities, unless that is essential for your argument. Grading Criteria The criteria we will use to evaluate the papers are listed below. Note that you do not have to address all of these criteria in one paper. We want you to address all of them over the course of the semester, but any single paper can focus on only one or two of these. Regardless of what you choose to write your reflection synthesis on, your paper must demonstrate clear, coherent argumentation. 1. Expression of Learning 2. Discussion and/or synthesis of course readings 3. Reflection on assumptions and cultural frames of reference 4. Connection to proposal process Word Count The reflection papers, except for the final one, should be at least 500 words, but not a lot longer than that. The final paper should be around...

...My first paper was a little rocky. At first I could not settle with a topic. When I would start to write a paper I would think it was not good enough and change it to something else. I changed my paper three different times. It was just hard for me to get started and it was also hard narrowing down my topic because I felt like what I was talking about was so broad. Turns out when I finally picked my topic my paper was headed in all the wrong directions. I ended up having to change a lot of things. When I went to Professor Warfield’s office hours it did help me but I was still a little discouraged that I would never get my paper right. I am still trying to keep a positive mind frame and I am hoping for the best with my grade. Overall I learned...
