Performance Management - Keeping it FlexibleDarryl Judd
This document discusses performance management and argues that it should be a continuous process rather than just an annual evaluation. It proposes that performance management shift to having agile and aligned goals that are reviewed quarterly, regular check-ins and feedback between managers and employees, and a future focus on growth rather than just evaluating past performance. Large companies are moving in this direction by removing ratings and rankings and focusing on continuous coaching and development.

Interactive Technologies for Improving Quality of Education to Build Collabor...ijsrd.com
Today with advancement in Information Communication Technology (ICT) the way the education is being delivered is seeing a paradigm shift from boring classroom lectures to interactive applications such as 2-D and 3-D learning content, animations, live videos, response systems, interactive panels, education games, virtual laboratories and collaborative research (data gathering and analysis) etc. Engineering is emerging with more innovative solutions in the field of education and bringing out their innovative products to improve education delivery. The academic institutes which were once hesitant to use such technology are now looking forward to such innovations. They are adopting the new ways as they are realizing the vast benefits of using such methods and technology. The benefits are better comprehensibility, improved learning efficiency of students, and access to vast knowledge resources, geographical reach, quick feedback, accountability and quality research. This paper focuses on how engineering can leverage the latest technology and build a collaborative learning environment which can then be integrated with the national e-learning grid.

each has several parts and use examples from the ethnography.
1. Why is it important for an anthropologist to be able to speak the local language? What
advantages did the author enjoy because of her language ability? What difficulties ensue when a
researcher is not able to speak the local language? If all contact with the population is through an
interpreter, what sorts of bias might arise in the data collection?

Subaru's Sales Boom Thanks to the Weaker Yen For the Japanese carmaker Subaru, a sharp fall in the value of yen against the U.S. dollar has turned a problem—the lack of U.S. production—into an unexpected sales boom. Subaru, which is a niche player in the global auto industry, has long bucked the trend among its Japanese rivals of establishing significant manufacturing facilities in the North American market. Instead, the company has chosen to concentrate most of its manufacturing in Japan in order to achieve economies of scale at its home plants, exporting its production to the United States. Subaru still makes 80 percent of its vehicles at home, compared with 21 percent for Honda. Back in 2012, this strategy was viewed as something of a liability. In those days, one U.S. dollar bought only 80 Japanese yen. The strong yen meant that Subaru cars were being priced out of the U.S. market. Japanese companies like Honda and Toyota, which had substantial production in the United States, gained business at Subaru's expense. But from 2012 onward, with Japan mired in recession and consumer prices falling, the country's central bank repeatedly cut interest rates in an attempt to stimulate the economy. As interest rates fell in Japan, investors moved money out of the country, selling yen and buying the U.S. dollar. They used those dollars to invest in U.S. stocks and bonds where they anticipated a greater return. As a consequence, the price of yen in terms of dollars fell. By December 2015, one dollar bought 120 yen, representing a 50 percent fall in the value of the yen against the U.S. dollar since 2012. For Subaru, the depreciation in the value of the yen has given it a pricing advantage and driven a sales boom. Demand for Subaru cars in the United States has been so strong that the automaker has been struggling to keep up. The profits of Subaru's parent company, Fuji Heavy Industries, have surged. In February 2015, Fuji announced that it would earn record operating profits of around ¥410 billion ($3.5 billion) for the financial year ending March 2015. Subaru's profit margin has increased to 14.4 percent, compared with 5.6 percent for Honda, a company that is heavily dependent on U.S. production. The good times continued in 2015, with Subaru posting record profits in the quarter ending December 31, 2015. Despite its current pricing advantage, Subaru is moving to increase its U.S. production. It plans to expand its sole plant in the United States, in Indiana, by March 2017, with a goal of making 310,000 a year, up from 200,000 currently. When asked why it is doing this, Subaru's management notes that the yen will not stay weak against the dollar forever, and it is wise to expand local production as a hedge against future increases in the value of the yen. Indeed, when the Bank of Japan decided to set a key interest rate below zero in early February 2016, the yen .

**ANSWER THE DISCUSSION QUESTION 250 WORDS MIN**
Discussion Questions:
How should the United States government deal with the heightened concern about homegrown violent extremism and the growing concern for the preservation of civil liberties? What are the political and constitutional consequences of counter-terrorism? Lastly, how do we assess the tradeoffs between freedom and security?
***REPLY TO EACH POST 100 WORDS MIN EACH***
1. The United States government will always have to face the homegrown violent extremist because with the internet alone people are able to research just about anything and find their answers. The civil liberties are being violated because you have FBI and CIA looking into what people on doing on the webs. I personally believe that you gave up the right when you decided to goggle whatever it is you’re looking up. It’s also like social media site take Facebook for example people are willing to give up their rights so they can be on Facebook and be able to look or post whatever they want. But just like ever website the owner of that site has a right to delete what they don’t want on it as well. So why can’t the FBI/CIA look into and potentially stop a homegrown extremist from attacking the nation or even just attacking schools, churches, and retail stores like the mall or Wal-Mart. All these locations have had attacks from violent extremist when if they were being watched or monitored those attacks could have been stopped or at least less death could have occurred. From a political and constitutional stand point, consequences of counter-terrorism can vary. I political stand is to protect and preserve the freedom for the people. Protecting one’s Constitutional rights depends on what the politician’s plans on policies and procedures that could begin to take away those civil rights that were granted and give people the sense of freedom that the nation is built on. Policies and procedures can change everything take the mask wearing and social distancing for Covid-19, you have the people that are okay with it all and are following the rules but then you have the ones that have been protesting or fighting people over the fact that they don’t want to wear a mask. To me personally it’s simple to wear a mask but to others it’s a reason of rights being taken away by mandating it. Working for the military and DHS I personally don’t see freedom and security as a tradeoff. If agencies do their jobs correctly and protect the United States and National Security then freedom wouldn’t be at stake. I believe in freedom but the security measures in place are to help protect that freedom, without the security measures the nation would be under attack like 9/11 or worse.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the creation of images and videos, enabling the generation of highly realistic and imaginative visual content. Utilizing advanced techniques like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and neural style transfer, AI can transform simple sketches into detailed artwork or blend various styles into unique visual masterpieces. GANs, in particular, function by pitting two neural networks against each other, resulting in the production of remarkably lifelike images. AI's ability to analyze and learn from vast datasets allows it to create visuals that not only mimic human creativity but also push the boundaries of artistic expression, making it a powerful tool in digital media and entertainment industries.

Statement of Educational and Curricular Needs
Integration of the curricular technology plays a critical role in
the improvement of the overall educational outcomes. The
implementation of this proposal will address various
educational and curricular needs in the network charter school.
First, the changes in the modern educational system have made
it mandatory for schools to use technology to facilitate
educational outcomes. The current education system requires
teachers to account for student’s progress in school, hence the
need to use the most efficient teaching approach. No Child Left
Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001 emphasizes accountability for
quality and progress in school (Roblyer & Doering, 2012).
Some students, including those with disabilities, find it difficult
learning in traditional classrooms using typical teaching
approaches. Therefore, curricular technology integration helps
in ensuring that these students have access to assistive learning
technologies and improve their interaction with instructors.
Another educational and curricular need being addressed by the
proposed educational technology integration is the issue of a
learner-centered teaching approach. This learning system
requires reading materials to be customized to meet the diverse
needs of the learner and ensure fairness and equality in the
learning environment. The use of educational technologies such
as hypermedia will help in achieving this goal. According to
Gerjets & Kirschner (2009), hypermedia materials such as
videos and graphics stimulate learner’s interest to learn and
gain knowledge. Consequently, the emergence of online
learning has increased the need for integration of curricular
technology. Roblyer and Doering (2012) indicate that there is
an increasing reliance on virtual K-12 courses in the U.S.
mainstream education system. This phenomenon requires
schools to implement educational technologies in their
classroom. Overall, the proposed curricular technology
6. integration seeks to improve teaching efficiency and enhance
student learning outcomes.
Proposal Goals and Objectives
The main curricular technology integration proposal is to
enhance student learning outcome through the use of
educational technologies. The integration of curricular
technology is the school is expected to enhance student
achievement by increasing their access to unique information
resources. The use of various technologies allows students to
access a wide range of information, hence enriching their
knowledge base. Integrating educational technology also allows
students to organize ideas and solve problems using a var iety of
media and technologies.
Another goal of curricular technology integration is to provide a
creative and meaningful learning environment for teachers and
students. This proposal recognizes the need to create a
supportive learning environment in the school. Some of the
objectives for obtaining this goal includes adopting educational
technology that allows instructors to transfer knowledge using
media and other modern learning tools. Moreover, the grant
proposal seeks to ensure that all students in the networked
charter school have equitable access to learning opportunities
and technology resources. This goal can be measured by the
number of students who can access and use curricular
technology in the school. Additionally, curricular technology
integration project aims at increasing access to education by
removing constraints of time and place. Objectively, education
technology focuses on instituting distance learning by
integrating online learning programs such as Zoom and Webex
in the system.
Proposed School Partnerships
The integration of curricular technology in the school requires
adequate funding. Roblyer & Doering (2012) argues that the
success or failures of a technology plan depend on available
funding. The funds are used in purchasing hardware and
software and setting up the physical infrastructure that will help
7. the school in fulfilling its curriculum needs. Even so, the school
do not have a budget to finance the curricular technology
proposal. As a result, they must establish partnerships with
governments, companies or groups to achieve its goals and
objectives.
The school can source funds for curricular technology
integration from the federal grants. The federal government
funds different initiatives such as educational technology
integration through its grant programs. Grants.gov program,
under the Office of Management and Budget, provides over
1000 federal funding opportunities to grant seekers Grant.gov,
2020). Alternatively, the charter school should consider
sourcing funds for its project from the state Ed-Tech program.
According to the U.S. Department of Education (ED, 2014), Ed-
Tech program supports school technological initiatives by
providing grants to State educational agencies (SEAs). As a
result, the school should partner with both federal and state
funding agencies to raise funds for its curricular technology
integration initiative.
The school can also source funds from private groups and
corporate organizations. Roblyer & Doering (2012) large
companies such as Honda and Verizon have charity foundations
that provide grants to technology-related programs in schools.
Similarly, the school can raise funds for its project through
private funding sources such as The Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation, NEA Foundation, and Pearson funding. As a result,
federal, state, corporate grants and private foundations are the
major sources of funding to the school curricular technology
integration program.
Implementation Plan
The implementation of the curricular technology integration
program will take a maximum of six months to be completed.
The project is estimated to cost approximately $20,000. These
include the cost of purchasing computer hardware, software,
installation fee and technical support, staff development, and
other expense such as maintenance. The school plans to install
8. four networked computers in each classroom and 25 others in
the computer lab. In the initial phase, the school board will
hold a meeting with all stakeholders to deliberate on the
implementation of the program. The board will appoint a project
manager will be responsible for managing and directing project
resource. One of the tasks of the project manager will be
selecting project team members who will undertake the actual
implementation process.
The next step of the plan involves the planning of the program
activities. At this stage, the project manager will identify
project deliverables, prepare the project schedule, and assign
tasks to the project team members. Some of the deliverables
during the implementation of the curricular technology
integration include identification and selection of appropriate
software vendor, computer hardware purchases, preparing
classrooms and computer labs for the installation of the
computer system, and staff development, including allocation of
materials and staff training.
After successful planning, the project manager, with the
assistance of the project team members will identify potential
risks that might affect the project. Some of the potential
challenges that might jeopardize the implementation of this
project include inadequate funds, inability to online and legal
policies, and staff resistance. After the approval from the board
to continue, the installation of the computer network in the
school will commence. The process will begin with the
installation of 25 networked computers in the school computer
lab and followed by the other four computers in each classroom.
The next step involves the training of teachers, students, and
administrative staff responsible for handling the computers.
Once the staff development activity has been completed, the
team will configure software, test the computer system, and
launch the project.
Budget Narrative
The budget of the grant proposal is $20,000. The funds will be
allocated to key deliverables in curricular technology
9. integration. For instance, the school will use $10,000 from the
funds to purchase 29 computer hardware that will be installed in
classrooms and the computer lab. Four networked computers
will be installed in each classroom, while the other 25
networked computers will be installed in the lab. Fifty percent
of the budget is allocated to computer hardware purchases
because they are costly. On the other hand, computer software
is allocated $4,500, $1,500 for technical support, $3,000 for
technical support, while other expenses such as maintenance
and scheduling are allocated $1,000. The program is scheduled
to be completed within six months.
Staff development, which includes training, will be done in-
person after school. According to Roblyer & Doering (2012), a
learner must have hands-on technology to learn technology
integration skills efficiently. Therefore, online training which
involves watching demonstrations, will not be sufficient to
achieve adequate staff development goals.

Assignment #1: The Plan

CRT 162
Sample State University
Summer 2 2020
July 10, 2020
Introduction
This is a presentation to integrate new computers and online
programs in the Melvin H. Kreps Middle School. These
additional resources are going to be used to help the 8th grade
math students that are in the standard math course for 8th grade.
These students have failed to perform well on state testing these
past few years. According to the 2018-2019 NJ School
19. Performance Report, only 13% of students in the 8th grade met
expectations on the state test in math.
The types of computers that will be installed into the school
will be four network computers, a computer lab with 25 network
computers, and a portable wireless lab with 25 laptops. These
new computers will give the 8th grade math students access to
online programs that will help enhance their math skills. Some
of these online resources will include Google Applications for
Education and other free online website that will make learning
more engaging for students.
We would like to purchase an online resource that will help
students to fill learning gaps with math content that is not grade
level. The program that can help use to do this is iReady.
iReady is an online program that is individualized for each
student based on their learning needs in math. Student take a
diagnostic assessment that determines what grade level students
fall under in four different math domains: algebra, geometry,
number sense, and measurement and data. Then students will
work on individualized lesson that are about 20 to 45 minutes to
help them to relearn certain skills. iReady will be used as
supplemental instruction to the grade level content taught in the
classroom.
Technology
Solution
with High Relative Advantages
This program will have many advantages to helping students to
increase their math potential in the classroom and on state
testing. iReady is individualized for every student and give
20. them lessons where they will relearn old topics or introduce
new concepts that the students will learn on their own. These
lessons have introduction tutorials that have colorful graphic
and explain the lessons using kid friendly terms. These tutorials
are much more interesting than watching a YouTube video with
someone explaining the skill. At the end of each lesson the
students take a five to seven question quiz where they will be
assessed on the skills that the tutorial just walked them through.
Students receive their quiz score right away so that they can
receive immediate feedback. If a student fails the quiz they will
have to do the lesson again; they have three attempts to pass a
lesson. The teacher will provide one on one intervention to
students that have failed a lesson three times in a row. Teachers
can track student progress on their lessons through the reporting
feature in iReady.
The lessons also incorporate the use of this skill in everyday
life. I feel that it is important to include this in math so students
see the relevance of what they are learning. The questions that
students are asking are more than just “skill and drill” type
questions. Students will be asked to solve problems using
problem solving strategies. It is important that the teacher lets
students know that they need to use a pencil and paper when
using iReady to work out the problems. The teacher will model
how to complete a lesson with the class to show students how to
use the scrap paper and pencil effectively.
21. The installation of new computers into the middle school will
help to successfully implement iReady to the 8th grade math
students. Students also have access to the Google Applications
for Education. Google provides many different applications to
use the classroom to make learning more engaging while
teaching students 21st century skills. The next section I will
explain how iReady will be used in the classroom with the use
of the new technology being installed into the building.
Implementation of iReady using the Technology Integration
Planning Model
This program will be used to reinforce the material that students
will be learning in the classroom. Students will take three
diagnostics a year to assess their mathematical knowledge in
order to provide them with lessons. Each students will get their
own set of lessons after they take each diagnostic. These lesson
are based on the New Jersey Student Learning Standards. Lower
students will relearn old content that will help them to better
understand grade level content. Students that are on grade level
will use iReady to reinforce what they are learning in the
classroom. Higher students will use iReady to learn new content
that has not yet been covered in the classroom. This program
automatically differentiates the lessons for students so that the
teacher doesn’t have to. If I student does not pass a lesson after
three attempts it will lock the domain that the lesson comes
from. The teacher will have to monitor student progress to see if
22. any domains have been locked because those students will be
required to have teacher intervention.
The next few paragraphs will cover the three phases of
integrating iReady into the 8th grade math class. In phase 1,
teachers will collect data and understand the needs of their
students. In phase 2, teachers will follow through with what was
collected in phase 1 to implement the program to students. In
phase 3, teachers will analyze the progress that students are
making in iReady to see if any intervention needs to be given to
students.
During Phase 1 of implementing iReady, the teachers will
determine how to use iReady for students in their classroom.
The diagnostic testing will allow teachers to collect base line
data on students’ mathematical ability. Students will take the
first diagnostic in the beginning of the year, the second one in
the middle of the year, and the third one at the end of the year.
The goal is for students to grow in between each diagnostic to
get them closer to grade level in order to perform better on state
testing. Teachers will be able to track student progress on
iReady using the reports from the three diagnostics.
During Phase 2 of implementing iReady, the teachers will
analyze the data from the diagnostics to make a plan for
integrating the lessons into the classroom. iReady will be a
supplemental program in additional to the content that they are
learning in the classroom. It is recommended by iReady that
23. students complete about 45 minutes a week in order to grow two
grade levels from the first diagnostic to the third diagnostic.
When implementing this program the school will utilize the new
computers that are being added to the middle school. Each
teacher will schedule the computer lab with 25 computers for a
class period every other week to work on iReady. This will
allow for students to get about 45 minutes to work only on
iReady with teachers support. Scheduling it every other week
will allow for all classes to be able to use the computer lab.
Teachers will also sign up to use the computer cart for a
minimum of once a week to use the computer for small group
time. Students will have time to log onto iReady and work on
other engaging online activities during small group time. Some
of these online activities could be an assignment in Google
Classroom using Google Forms, Google Docs, or Google Slides
Students will log about 20 to 60 minutes of iReady time during
the school week. Students will also be required to complete 30
minutes of iReady throughout the week for homework.
The planning for phase 2 will be easy for the teacher when
accommodating the needs of diverse learners since iReady is
already individualized. It will help the special education
students to work on lower level skills. These students may never
be on grade level after using iReady, but you should see growth
of about two grade levels if implemented correctly. English
Language Learners can also benefit from the use of iReady.
24. According to English Learners and All Student Comparisons
from the ESSA Level 3 2017–2018 Study, students that receive
iReady along with their regular class instruction will grow 44%
more in math compared to ELL students that do not use iReady.
The classroom with four network computers will be used as a
computer lab for students with specific learning needs. These
classes are usually small so the teacher will be able to have four
students working independently on iReady while working with
another small groups of students.
The reporting that is done in iReady will help with the
analyzing and reviewing of lesson that is done in phase 3.
Teachers should check student progress biweekly to see how
students are progressing through the lesson. If a student fails a
lesson three times it locks that domain and the teachers is to
provide intervention for that student on that topic. This
intervention is to be provided during computer lab time. After
the intervention is delivered the teacher will reopen the domain
for students to work on lesson again.
After the second diagnostic is given teachers will analyze
students grow to see if students are benefiti ng from time spent
on iReady. Teachers can use this information to determine if the
use of iReady in the classroom is effective and make any
changes if needed. Some of the changes that teachers will look
into are time on iReady in the classroom and at home, teacher
support during iReady, and performance in the classroom. We
25. won’t be able to analyze the full effects of iReady until we
receive the data from the state test after the use of iReady. The
hope is that if iReady implemented correctly then students
should show growth from last year. As a reminder, last year
only 13% of 8th grade math students were proficient on the
state test.
Cost of Google Applications for Education & iReady
All of the students will be given their own emails and logins for
the Google Applications for Education. Students will be able to
use the Google Applications for email, word processing,
presentations, video chats, and use Google Classroom to
connect with the teacher and other students. We are choosing to
use these applications with students because this product is free.
The cost for the iReady program is $30 per student per year.
This price includes the use of the iReady diagnostics and
iReady instruction program. There are 230 students in standard
8th grade math, so the cost for them to use iReady is $6,900 for
the year. There is also an additional cost of $2,500 to $3,500 for
professional development training for teachers on how to
implement the program effectively in their classroom. Students
and teachers are able to access iReady using their online
platform so there is no program that needs to be downloaded
onto the new computers in the school. The benefits of the
purchase of this product is the ability to fill in learning gaps of
8th grade math students and increase state test scores. If the 8th
26. grade student benefit from this product then we can push out
this product to rest of the middle school students to help
address their learning gaps as soon as possible.
Scheduling and Technology Set Up
Teachers will share the use of the new computers by scheduling
time to work with them. Teachers will be able to sign out the
use of the computer lab once every other week for a period and
the use of the laptop cart once a week. There are six 8th grade
math teachers, so teachers will be able to sign up for computer
time with ease. There should even be opportunity for teachers to
sign up to use the computer more than what was recommended.
The special education & ESL teachers will also be involved in
using the laptop cart. They will be able to share the computer
lab with four computer among themselves.
The technology department will install the computers in the
computer lab over the summer and also set up the laptops in the
computer cart. The technology department will also set up log
in for the students. They will need log in information for the
computers, Google Apps, and for iReady. Each students will be
given their own unique log in and password to the ensure
security of students information and files. The login for all of
these different programs will be the same. The login will be the
students email with their ID numbers and their passwords will
be their birthdays. The teachers will also have access to student
log in information in case a student forgets. The technology
27. department will be available to help with computer repairs and
technology issues throughout the school year. All of this can be
done remotely by the technology unless there is physical
damage done to a device then it must be repaired.
All computers will have Google Chrome installed as the main
browser because the Google Applications work the best on
Google Chrome. Google Chrome also allows students to
download other free extensions to the browser to help enhance
their learning. An example of some of these programs are
Screencastify, Equatio, and Grammerly.
The two computer labs with network computers will be hard
wired for their internet access. The technology will install Wi -
Fi hotspots into each classroom to allow students to have a
strong internet connection when using the computers. In the
past we have had hotspots installed in the hallways for classes
to share the connection, but many teachers have complained
about connect during class. Installing individual hotspots in
each classroom should help teachers with these internet
connection problems in the classroom.
Conclusion
The main purpose of implementing all of this new technology is
to help to increase students learning in math and to improve
state test scores. After these programs have successfully been
implemented to the 8th grade math students we hope to show
improvement on the state testing. If tremendous growth is
28. shown the goal is to be able to implement iReady to all students
in the elementary and middle schools, so that we do not have to
wait until 8th grade to begin to reinforce math skills.
