...Title: “The Effectiveness of Reading Program on the Reading Comprehension Skills of Grade I Pupils in Sto. Niño ElementarySchool S.Y. 2011-2012 I. SITUATION Many pupils continue to struggle with acquiring the necessary skills to become successful readers. Reading “comprehension is critically important to the development of children’s reading skills and therefore to the ability to obtain an education.” Furthermore, children without high levels of reading comprehension face a difficult and uncertain economic future. Recreational reading programs are designed to encourage the development of the “reading habit.” Reading is a skill that requires much practice to perfect. Activities to practice reading should bring both success and enjoyment to all children in order to foster an ongoing interest in reading. One of the programs of the DepEd regarding reading is the ECARP Every Child A Reader Program under this are the PHILIRI, DEAR and other remedial reading programs. . This study investigated the effectiveness of this program on the reading abilities, skills and comprehension of pupils in Grade One. II. PROBLEM Title: ““The Effectiveness of Reading Program on the Reading Comprehension Skills of Grade I Pupils in Sto. Niño ElementarySchool S.Y. 2011-2012 The study aims to answer the following question: 1.

...Abstract: “To solve the problem of time-cost tradeoff in project management with available models, a choice must be made between heuristic approaches and algorithms based upon restrictive assumptions about the shape of the cost-time functions of the activities. The algorithm presented in this article involves a dynamic-programming approach to determine the allocation which minimizes the duration of the project (critical path). The main advantage of this model is its ability to determine the optimum allocation among activities with arbitrary cost-time functions. Also, computational shortcuts for functions with special properties can be used to increase the efficiency of the model” (Don Robinson 158-166). Programming solutions . Developers who program for any project has multiple requirements to be met. The key is understanding the problem to be familiar with the business. A visionary understanding the management of the business. Then a visual plan must be drawn with a step by step process to understand the goals of the company. It is easy to do this if you are the owner of the company and it is difficult to bring it to the IT/developer of the company. I have experienced this personally via my small business even though I tried desperately to bring my ideas, there was always a gap bringing the need and the vision. IF we discuss the need, we had to set multiple meetings where the developer had researched the system and saw the flaws with his own ideas on how to improve it. It was very...

...Functionality of Programs University of Phoenix Java Programming IT/215 Functionality of Programs Consider a Java-based application example with file access and file-processing methods appropriate for e-business. Write a 200- to 300-word response that explains why that functionality is valuable for business. One of the biggest benefits of Java is that it facilitates the viewing of information from just about anywhere there is a computer. As long as that computer is compatible with Java that is. A business is able to view inventory, parts, drawings, employee dispatches, and any imaginable number of other desired items. With Java the ability to quickly add, and remove components makes it an extremely valuable tool for business. Java can allow a user to make changes to the data in the program without being physically onsite. Being able to make changes freely without being tied to the office allows for much more flexible work, and saves time and money. With a global economy, the ability to hire, and allows professionals to work in their home country without having to be tied to the office is a major benefit. It allows for companies to find the most experienced, and qualified individuals no matter where they are in the world. Java is amazing with the visuals that it provides a user. A business can use pictures to show products, zoom, rotate, and pan makes for a better user experience. It enhances the overall functionality of a program as well. It presents a professional...

...Training and Mentoring Program xxxxxxxxxxxxx HRM/531 December 5, 2011 Dr. Penny Wilkins Evaluation Ford provides many kinds of training programs to its employees, dealers and suppliers. For successful training programs it is important to see the reaction, transfer and its effect on the employees and company. Six Sigma is a successful training program Ford started in 1999. The first phase of Six Sigma called for customer satisfaction. "In fact, one and a half points of customer satisfaction drive about one point more loyalty. In North America alone, this translates into more than $2 billion in incremental revenue and roughly $100 million in profit." (http://www.qualitydigest.com). The employees gave a good response to this training and earned green belts, black belts, master black belts. Master black belts helped train senior leaders to apply Six Sigma in their departments.

...Induction Programs 1 Mentoring versus Induction Program Andrea Tubbs AED/201 Breanna Becker June 13, 2010 Mentoring vs. Induction Programs 2 One of the main factors new teachers leave after a few years of teaching is socialization. With all the training and along with additional tools new teachers get before entering into the classroom. They’re faced with so many obstacles as new teachers, that’s why it’s so good to have programs like mentoring and induction programs to help on this journey during the first couple years of teaching. Mentoring Programs are programs organized by experienced or veteran teachers, whose job is to help the new or beginning teacher. Their responsibility is to offer advice, guidance, and support for them to take back to the classroom. Induction programs are programs that are established to first year teachers that provide workshops, internships and the oppourinty for teachers to observe their future peers in the classroom to see how it’s done. These tools will provide aide to them, to use when facing adversity, challenges or any difficult situation that will arise in the classroom. The purpose of the mentoring program is to give personal and long-term individual support to the new teachers. New teachers are assigned to a mentor who will offer guidance and support to them during their first year experience. Even though mentoring is part of induction process it’s not induction. On the other hand induction programs are designed...

...Channeling students into a gifted program There is a four step protocol for channeling students into a gifted program. Those steps are; early intervention, identifying students, what the program offers, and what the students will experience. Let’s start with early intervention: Early intervention has the ability to enhance a child’s development, increase the child’s and families benefit to society and receive full support from the staff. Children who come across as gifted are given two tests to determine just how gifted they are. One of those test is based on their academics and the other is based on their creativity. This is way to determine if any intervention needs to put into motion and helps determine just how gifted they are. The second step is identifying just how the students qualify for the program. There is a series of steps that can help determine if a child is gifted. One is a child’s test scores, any child who can score above the 85 percentile can be a candidate for the gifted programs. A teacher nomination is one other way to qualify. Teachers are informed of all students who have received entrances through teacher nominations. Gifted students have to have the ability to excel in their studies, and must remain focused on their school work. The gifted programs can offer full support from their teachers, parental involvement in their education, lessons in self-motivation, grade level advancement, and excellent academic recommendations for future college course...

...Program evaluation is a systematic method for collecting, analyzing, and using information to answer basic questions about a program. While there are many types of program evaluations, and many terms used to describe them, evaluations are typically divided into two major categories: process evaluations and outcome evaluations. Process evaluations assess whether an intervention or program model was implemented as planned, whether the intended target population was reached, and the major challenges and successful strategies associated with program implementation. Outcome evaluations determine whether, and to what extent, the expected changes in a public health or not-for- profit company’s outcomes occur and whether these changes can be attributed to the program or program activities. Five reason to conduct a program evaluation in the public health and not- for- profits sectors. #1 A program evaluation can find out what works and doesn’t work. A process or outcome evaluation enables program managers to answer basic questions about a program’s effectiveness, including: Are participants benefiting from the program services? Are strategic implementations working? Are employees satisfied with the changes, and so. #2 A program evaluation can showcase the effectiveness of a program to the community and funders. #3 A program evaluation can improve staff’s frontline practice with participants. #4 A program evaluation can increase a program’s capacity to conduct a critical...

...Program Planning and Evaluation Paper Kendra Hammond HSM/270 June 16, 2013 William Latta When creating a human services organization, program planning and program evaluation is vital. For a successful organization one can not exist without the other. Program planning entails researching, making goals, setting objectives, and answers who, what, and why questions. The development of program planning helps establish what resources will be needed to achieve the goals and objectives of the human services organization. The finances and budget are also included in program planning. In the program plan it should include what is the problem that is being addressed, why this problem exists, who is the target population, and where the target population is demographically sited. When creating a program plan, it requires logical thinking and a high level of information processing. The plan should be able to provide information on the services that the program wishes to provide to their clients. Throughout the thought process of the plan, the program should consider and include in the plan what obstacles they may encounter and ways to overcome them. The program planning stage in creating a human services organization is essential, because it determines the budget, the timeline, and sets expectations for the entire organization. The heart of this stage is how the organizations product and services will be developed and delivered. Program planning should be done thoroughly and carefully...

...Program evaluation is one of the most operational tools used to assess both the effectiveness and in-effectiveness of a program. Nevertheless, similar to other forms of evaluation there can be many potential challenges that arise while program evaluators attempt to execute their evaluation plan. With regards to evaluating the GRL program, our group members foresee the most immediate threat to the evaluation being the possibility of the program coordinators deciding to continue to prolong the program start date due to low participant enrollment into the program. Furthermore, due to the limited number of participants in the program, the evaluation will not include a control group for measurement. Therefore, the survey instrument will not be tested before use due to fear that contamination will cause a threat to internal validity....

...ENGL106-X-1205A-05 A computer program, also software, or just a program or application is a sequence of instructions written to perform a specified task with a computer. A computer requires programs to function, typically executing the program's instructions in a central processor. The program has an executable form that the computer can use directly to execute the instructions. The same program in its human-readable source code form, from which executable programs are derived (e.g., compiled), enables a programmer to study and develop its algorithms. Computer source code is often written by computer programmers. Source code is written in a programming language that usually follows one of two main paradigms: imperative or declarative programming. Source code may be converted into an executable file (sometimes called an executable program or a binary) by a compiler and later executed by a central processing unit. Alternatively, computer programs may be executed with the aid of an interpreter, or may be embedded directly into hardware. Computer programs may be categorized along functional lines: system software and application software. Two or more computer programs may run simultaneously on one computer, a process known as multitasking. Computer programming is the iterative process of writing or editing source code. Editing source code involves testing, analyzing, and refining, and sometimes coordinating with other programmers on a jointly developed program. A person who practices...

...While working in my most recent job, I was in charge of a backroom for a large retail company, and quickly realized that I could solve many issues with just a few simple programs. While I know in the spectrum of business, software or hardware changes are anything but simple, though the idea itself was relatively easy. I quickly realized that while during our inventory process that we would do most mornings, that while there was a system for the corporation to keep track of where and what was being shipped, we as the store did not have much of a hint as to what we were getting or for that matter how much of certain products we had at all. Being an intermediate programmer, I generally think in terms of programs and how I could make things better and easier, not only for myself but for everyone else on my team. The first thing for me is to get a view of the big picture of things, falling in line with the first step of the programming development cycle, Analyze. This gives me a chance to make sure that the ideas that I am coming up with are not just one of those far fetched, well if we had a stick, a match and a kangaroo type of ideas, but actually legitimate ideas that could improve our work flow. It gives me a good idea of what information you would need on both ends, being your inputs and outputs. The next step is designing my personal favorite. This is where you are fixing the problem with an algorithm, or a logical sequence of steps to solve a particular problem. I am very much...

The way companies survive in today’s business world they have to be able to store data and one way of storing that data is to create files so that data can be stored and later retrieved whenever that information is needed. Being able to share and exchange those files is available through the use of Java applications, those applications help companies does this easily and productively without many complications. A great example would be an e-business like ITunes, this site lets you download movies, music (albums or single songs). You create an account and have the availability to listen to them from your computer or other devices that you can download whatever music you like or movies you like. The music and movies are files that are stored in a huge database for ITunes. Java applications are used to make the information secure and easily accessible to the customers to listen or watch anytime they wish to use their account...
