...Later Adulthood Development Report Adriane McClendon BSHS/325 - HUMAN SYSTEMS AND DEVELOPMENT November 2, 2015 Susan W. Jernigan Over the time in their lives, most people can acquire protected attachments; cognitively, socially, and morally, and produce families and discover good jobs. Ultimately, though, as an individual enter into their 60s and beyond, getting older leads to quicker changes in our bodily, cognitive, and social capabilities and desires, and life starts to approach its natural ending, resulting in the last life stage, beginning in the 60s, known as late adulthood. "Social changes affect a person's decision. If they move, for example, to be closer to family, they will need to make new friends in the new environment, to cope with the loss of old friends, and to deal with the changing roles within the family dynamics as one becomes older." ("End-of-Life Decisions and Late Adulthood," 2007). When an individual enters late adulthood, they start to go through various changes in their role and social position in society. At one point in their life, they were young and had a prominent role in the decisions they made for themselves and others. Many elderly people are parents and grandparents and at one point had the role of being the caretaker of their offspring. During this time of their life this position changes, and it is usually their children taking care of them now. They do not have as much power over their life as they used to have and may not have...

...Welcome to WritePoint, the automated review system that recognizes errors most commonly made by university students in academic essays. The system embeds comments into your paper and suggests possible changes in grammar and style. Please evaluate each comment carefully to ensure that the suggested change is appropriate for your paper, but remember that your instructor's preferences for style and format prevail. You will also need to review your own citations and references since WritePoint capability in this area is limited. NOTE: WritePoint comments are computer-generated writing and grammar suggestions inviting the consideration and analysis of the writer; they are not infallible statements of right/wrong, and they should not be used as grading elements. Also, at present, WritePoint cannot detect quotations or block-quotes, so comments in those areas should be ignored. Please see the other helpful writing resources in the Tutorials and Guides section of the Center for Writing Excellence. Thank you for using WritePoint.

...C11OE Individual Assignment – Due 11th March, week 10 You have the week of 25th February, by which time you will have covered the key areas for the assignment, without a lecture in order to facilitate your research for this assignment – use it well! Objectives The operations function of any enterprise has a direct and significant impact on the competitiveness and success of the firm. Upon completion of this project, you will have gained a deeper understanding of how the goals and objectives of an operation are realized in the way they do business. The project will draw upon the skills, concepts and models we have discussed this semester – e.g. operations strategy, process mapping, quality management, and lean – and apply them in a real-world setting. Assignment Select an operation within an organisation that you can easily visit (at least twice) and readily conduct observations. This could be a service operation, such as a coffee shop, or a manufacturing operation, such as a factory. This is not a typical ‘research project’ but an experiential learning project; sources may be from your selected company’s website, your knowledge of the process, site visits, interviews, process maps etc. Required: 1. Evaluate the objectives of the selected operation. You might discuss aspects of operations strategy, goals and objectives, contribution to competitive priorities, order qualifiers/winners, customers. 2. Observe the process.

...14 April 2015 GEN 200 Final Essay As I went through this class this semester we discussed things from Time Management Skills, to Plagiarism, from identifying Personal Learning styles to using sources in a paper. I was reminded that even academically I need to set achievable goals to achieve bigger goals. Doing this will lead to much better success, and will help in my success in my career as I carry on the same routine there. So as I took this class I came up with a few educational goals, two of those goals were to graduate with a total Grade Point Average of 3.5, and to do my best to graduate a semester early. I also came up with a couple career goals, one is that wherever I go teach that I have an average of 3.0 grade from my classes and full comprehension of what I teach. I also want to become a head coach of a High School football team within five years of my graduation date. I also was reminded, not just by the lesson, but with misuse of time, that Time Management Skills are not just important in my career and life, but also extremely important in my academic success. The writing process can help you advance in your education and your career by giving you the confidence to present yourself in writing. The writing process is quite useful in a career aspect. Knowing how to use the writing process can give you tools to advance in your career. For example, a well written resume can mean the difference between getting an interview and not. Also it’s important...
