...be discussion over the intended meanings. Specific intent, general intent, transferred intent and strict liability are frequently referenced in the determination of criminal offenses but continue to provide a level of confusion to the law professionals. The intent determines the mindset of the person accused of the crime and provides guidance to the process in which they are punished. These intents are part of the mens rea for the crimes committed and differ from the Model Penal Code. The Model Penal Code has served to simplify the definitions used in the previously mentioned intents. INTENT AND THE CODE 3 There are many differences in the interpretations of Common Law intents and liability. These intents are identified as: specific, general, transferred and strict liability which governs decisions of lawmakers and judges. The complexity in understanding the defined intents and applying them uniformly creates a feeling of disproportionate accountability from members of the public. The Model Penal Code (MPC) changes these intents in common law to four mental states: purposely, knowingly, recklessly and negligently. The “MPC expressly rejects the general notion of strict criminal liability.” (Garland, 2012) There seems to be a need for both levels of the law to coincide and provide the tools necessary for our criminal law system to protect society. Understanding the difference between specific and general intent is the initial building...

...business makes good decisions, implements them well - and then learns from the experience in order to do better next time. To make a good decision, one needs not only information about the specific instance, but also an understanding of the domain. In other words, one needs a set of principles, models, templates or other abstractions. These abstractions are then re-usable for making new decisions with different information. Knowledge is re-usable - unlike information which relates to specific instances. Knowledge is a set of re-usable abstractions that assist understanding and provide meaning to decision-making. Information is about specific instances and is the raw material of particular decisions. For instance: Consider a civil engineering business that builds bridges. Its knowledge is in its understanding of how to build bridges, how to manage projects, how to handle finance etc. This knowledge is re-usable. Its information is about specific bridges, budgets, suppliers etc which are essentially transitory. If it knows how to build bridges but has no information about particular bridges that need building, it is not going to be in business for long! Conversely if it has a lot of information about particular bridges but no understanding of how to build a bridge, it will soon be out of business. It needs the combination of knowledge about...

...CORNERSTONE OVERVIEW PRIOR KNOWLEDGE (Before the Unit) Students will need content knowledge about how to classify and describe rocks, how rocks are used by people, and the rock cycle and how rocks are formed. They will need to research this information for their chosen rock of study and apply it to their short poem and timeline included in their pamphlet. If students are choosing to create a pamphlet about marble, for instance, they will need to understand that this rock is classified as a metamorphic rock and is often used for sculptures and countertops. Students will also need to describe the rock cycle in order to successfully create a timeline that demonstrates how marble is formed. Students will also need to practice fluency and creative expression skills. Specifically, students need to be able to read accurately, at an appropriate pace, and with meaningful expression.

...acquisition process is an important part of any successful information technology project. Understanding the needs, costs, regulations, barriers, obstacles, security issues are all crucial parts of a successful selection and acquisition process. Understanding these parts of the process allows for the implementation of the staffing program. It is also requires a realistic time line for the entire process. During the summer of 2007, Memorial Health System in Colorado was using up to 100 nurses, therapists, administrative support personnel and other health professionals from outside staffing agencies at any given time. After deploying scheduling software, the three hospitals and about a dozen ancillary facilities of the Colorado Springs-based delivery system are using just four to six outside workers at a time. (Cutting Down on Temporary Staff, 2009) Understanding how to select and acquire a new program like a staffing program can increase a facilities overall success. Needs Assessment “A staff scheduling system should be more than just filling a hole or finding a warm body. You want a system that can find the appropriate person with skills and qualifications needed to do the job” (Garcia, 2000). In order to choose the correct staff scheduling system the specific needs of the facility need to be meet. A centralized or decentralized system is the first choice that needs to be made. A centralized scheduling system is done by a centralized scheduling office which...

...and of technical jargon. It is important that the proposed research is realistic and feasible so that the outcomes can be achieved within the scale of a typical research degree programme, which is typically three years full-time for a PhD (or two years for an MPhil). Although you should write the proposal yourself, it is best if you discuss its contents with your proposed supervisor before you submit it. Your research question For most projects there is usually one main question that you would like to address, which can sometimes be broken down into several sub-questions. You will need to state your main research question(s), explain its significance, and locate it within the relevant literature (remembering to refer only to research that is directly relevant to your proposal). You will probably need to address questions such as; What is the general area in which you will be working and the specific aspect(s) of that area that will be your focus on...

...to provide the students with personal fulfillment of knowledge within their interests . A student is supported not only academically, but also socially and emotionally. I believe that my role as an educator is to support the diversity of all students by tailoring an education specific to the individual needs of the student. Every student in a diverse classroom has needs to be met on varying levels. One of my roles as a teacher is to identify a student’s specific needs and goals. Children at all levels need to be challenged, supported and validated. I will strive to build a solid support system for each student. To best support students, I will encorporate the parents and community into my classroom. I believe that education will benefit children the most when there is a healthy collaboration between the teacher, parents, and community. When there is open communication in all aspects of the students life it will create a comfortable supportive environment for learning. I believe that all children have desire and are capable of learning. It is part of my duty in their education to use their individual intrests to influence learning into the particular curriculum required to teach by that specific school.

...Among the most compelling issues within the various attempts to define modernity involves placing it within a temporal framework by linking it to specific events within history to illustrate modernity as an distinct epoch. The debate surrounds locating the origin point of modernity, which in turn, shaped the character and nature of its meaning. Some question this temporal component by constructing modernity as a process of economic and technological conditions rather than a specific point in time attacks this logic. However, these seemingly competing conceptions of modernity seem to feed into a similar understanding of the modern that suggests modernity is not merely an epoch, but a new system of cultural understanding that resulted from...

...Mathematics skills play an important role in our lives. To understand math we must read our math books, and understand the use of technical terms like equation, integration and many more. Understanding terms is only part of learning mathematics skills. Comprehension and analysis is needed to understand math concepts. You cannot learn mathematics by being a spectator; you must perform the calculations yourself. Reading a solution in a book and watching someone else solve the problem is not sufficient, although it helps, you must use your brain to solve the problems and write out the full solution. If you are provided with the answers to a math problem or problems you may be able to see how each answer fits, but it is very different working out the problem yourself. The real understanding is if you can do the necessary work yourself or not. Mathematics Study Skills Knowing mathematical principles and concepts can help you to succeed in school and work. It is important to use study skills that apply well to math. The following are some study skills that should be utilized: * Study math everyday during the semester. * Have a specific time and place to study with few distractions. * Keep up to date with homework. * Find an alternative text when you are having trouble understanding the text. * Take notes and copy all the steps of the math problems. * Ask questions when you are confused. * Work problems until you understand them, not until you get the answer...
