    This research is done to bring together data found by other parties concerning the Womble Shale Formation. The Womble Shale Formation is located in Arkansas, the Ouachita Mountains, and Southern Oklahoma; it was named however for its outcrop seen in Norman, Arkansas (Used to be known as Womble, Arkansas). The age of the Womble Shale Formation has been correlated to Middle Ordovician in age due to fossils found within its shale and limestone layers. The two fossils found in these layers were the graptolites and conodonts. The lithology of this formation from outcrops that have been examined shows evidence that the top layers of this formation are chert, followed by a rather large middle section of fissile shale, with thin beds of limestone…

    Conducting face-to-face presentations are different from conducting online presentations. When in front of a group of people or face-to-face, there should be a plan to involve the audience in the discussion. For example, taking a short break to have a questions segment about something that was discussed would be ideal. While in an online setting, voice tone, facial expressions, and hand gestures are key to keeping the audience tuned in. Maybe throw in a joke or two for good measure.…

    You have just been part of a merger. You have each been chosen to head up your department and merge the two groups into a self-directed work team. Work with each other to lay out a plan describing how you will develop a new team within your department or departments. It is natural that there will be some confrontations between people. Look at the stages of team development and use that knowledge to work with the team. It is recognized that some employees will refuse to be part of the team. In fact, the new ownership expects that there will be some who lose their jobs because of these issues; however, that is a last resort. Use all your skills to negotiate with employees in an attempt to resolve conflicts and pull your team together.…

During the fourth week of the semester, a meeting to begin on the “Team Informative Presentation” began to change this environment into a more team-based feeling. An idea about performing a skit for our presentation excited us all and drove us towards interacting to achieve the common objective of giving our audience an original and funny presentation. This key aspect towards the development as a team also provided us with morale, a congruent motivation because of the desire to achieve a common goal.…

    The Upper Jurassic is described in the record by a low-relief transition from shallow-water into basinal facies (Winker & Buffer, 1988). Further, there is little to no evidence of seismic expression It has been documented that there are facies tracts from past basinal marine all the way to shallow marine as well as nonmarine in this area. In addition to this, the oldest confirmed Mesozoic sediments classified as marine in the province of the basin also include basinal facies Sediments in the Upper Jurassic comprise a placid mixture of carbonates and clastics (Winker & Buffer, 1988).…
