References Executive summary Introduction The aim of this report is to critically analyse the architecture of the website www.flinders.ed.au. The information gathered from the analysis will be used to devise solutions to problems with the website. The technique of examination for the website was to thoroughly explore the different pages of the website and grade each area of the website using appropriate criteria. Dave Gehrke (1999) states that” without efficient and user=friendly navigation, the user is likely to get confused, lost or frustrated and leave the site for good”. A resultant survey run by Gehrke (1999) showed that page loading speed and navigational efficiency are the most important things to users. The most important user type that needs to be happy with the website for it to be successful is prospective students as they make a majority of the people visiting the site. Prospective students are more likely to turn into current students if they like the feel of the website. This analyst took on the role of prospective student to test the...

...kin31937_ch.02.qxd 10/23/06 2:06 PM Page 11 THESIS SENTENCE TEMPLATES A thesis sentence is a sentence in the introduction that tells the reader what the topic or argument of the essay is. Experienced writers have little difficulty writing thesis sentences. This is because they have read and written thousands of them. You, the emerging writer, don’t have it so easy. So, you have to accelerate the process. You do this via thesis sentence templates. A thesis sentence template is the basic machinery of a thesis sentence, what makes it work. It is like a car minus the hood, the doors, the engine, the side panels, the wheels, and the air conditioner. On that basic structure, thousands of different cars can be built. From a thesis sentence template, thousands of thesis sentences can be constructed. The introduction for any piece of writing is very important. This is where you establish a relationship with the reader. The introduction will always be read, while the body of the paper might sometimes be glossed over (not carefully read) by graders of standardized tests like the SAT® or TOEFL®. ? HOW THE THESIS SENTENCE TEMPLATES WORK Each type of thesis sentence presented in this section is followed by two or three examples of how very different thesis sentences can be written using the template. Then you will write two or three thesis sentences of your own using the template. If you find the template difficult, just do one sentence on your own. But the more you...

...Meeting Human Services Challenges with Technology Gina Sharra BSHS-351 January, 24th, 2011 Nate Hooper Meeting Human Services Challenges with Technology Technology has grown so much in the last decade that it is something that really should be used in the human services organizations today. It can help any of the organizations to not only grow with the demands that need to be met in human services, but it can also help the many services that are already being used or help to implement new technology uses that are not being used at this time for instance updating their systems. Technology can be used in many ways to benefit human services businesses, organizations as well as the non-profit services. There are so many different software’s that can be used to upgrade systems, add in systems that are old-school in which it will not only benefit these places in time management, privacy, HIPPA laws and in many other areas. One challenge for human services non-profit organization is it needs the proper tools to be able to provide its community with the services that are needed. But if they do not have the tools to get the information out into the community on what services they do provide than the community not only has no idea about this organization and what they provide, but the organization actually looses too because they themselves have no clientele. The different types of strategies that can help in this particular situation would be to add different ways for clients...

...recognition algorithms identify facial features by extracting landmarks, or features, from an image of the subject's face. For example, an algorithm may analyze the relative position, size, and/or shape of the eyes, nose, cheekbones, and jaw. These features are then used to search for other images with matching features. Other algorithms normalize a gallery of face images and then compress the face data, only saving the data in the image that is useful for face recognition. A probe image is then compared with the face data. One of the earliest successful systems is based on template matching techniques applied to a set of salient facial features, providing a sort of compressed face representation. Recognition algorithms can be divided into two main approaches, geometric, which looks at distinguishing features, or photometric, which is a statistical approach that distills an image into values and compares the values with templates to eliminate variances. Popular recognition algorithms include Principal Component Analysis using eigenfaces, Linear Discriminate Analysis, Elastic Bunch Graph Matching using the Fisherface algorithm, the Hidden Markov model, the Multilinear Subspace Learning using tensor representation, and the neuronal motivated dynamic link matching. 3-dimensional recognition A newly emerging trend, claimed to achieve improved accuracies, is...

...of life during that specific time or place. Since the dawn of this new era, the economy has relied on fast food, sports, and television as their primary source of entertainment. The three categories listed above have overlapping patterns suggesting individuals to purchase their product being mentally or physically. Food industry’s use artificial visual prop’s such as plastic or wax items to help portray luscious tasting food to help entice a hunger experience. Driving by Arby’s a billboard picture shows five roast beef sandwiches for five dollars, leading individuals to believe this is an excellent value. On the other hand, Arby’s does not inform customers of the calorie intake, sodium, and other ingredients that are harmful to individuals’ health. Consequently, these additives tremendously increased over the years. Another example of a food artifact is McDonald’s golden arches. In most cities children in general recognize McDonald’s for their symbol of a golden arches. Sadly, this fast food establishment has been deemed un-healthy of all chain restaurants which has been proven to be a fact through medical research. I for one, after seeing the movie “Super Size” have refrained from being a regular customer do to these findings. Another area of how mass media affects the public is through sports. In the early 1900’s baseball was America’s sport of choice and now since the changes that were made in 1925, football has evolved into America’s favorite game. Stadiums...

...INCENTIVES AS A MOTIVATIONAL TOOL IN SPORTS 664 argued that an athlete’s motivation is very critical, but what is more critical is the understanding of what exactlymotivates athletes. Having a clear understanding of what motivates athletes accords the coach an opportunity todesign appropriate motivational climate in order to realize an athlete’s physical talent.Motivation and the use of rewards as a motivational tool for success have been widely studied in sports psychology (Ambrus & Egorov, 2009; Browning & Burr, 2009; Bucciol, Montinari, & Piovesan, 2011; Crifo etal., 2004; Dommeyer, Curt, Hirao, Ikeda, Linkletter, & Watanabe, 2010; Gould, Feltz, Horn, & Weiss, 1982;Hellandsig, 1998; Mallett & Hanrahan, 2004).A former NBA (National Basketball Association) basketball star, Tim Hardaway, was promised a huge bonus if he made a lot of assists in games. The bonus was entirely based on passing the ball. Hardaway passedthe ball a lot, particularly towards the end of the season. When interviewed, the former start admitted that to gethis bonus he had sometimes passed even when he should have shot the ball. He was highly driven by themonetary bonus. Hardaway is a typical example of the effects of rewards in sports.Given incentives, athletes will do what they are told to do in order to get the monetary incentive. “Showme the medal” was a slogan introduced by the Chinese Sports Department in order to best capture the spirit of the Chinese sports apparatus.
