Week 1 Individual Assignment Connecting the Dots
Week 1 Individual Assignment : Connecting The Dots

I like the Writing Learning Path in MyFoundationsLab.
I am going to tell you what I learned about online education this week.

What next steps did MyFoundationsLab Learning Path suggest to me?
The Path Builder didn't suggest really anything to me.
It gave me a list of all the available topics I had mastered after the Learning Path.
It also said I had mastered sentence skills, punctuation, mechanics, spelling, and the craft of writing, which gave me 3 stars for that activity.

How did the skills apply to my academic life and my professional life?
I don't really see how any of this applied to my academic life but it sort of took me back to when I was in high school and how well they taught me grammar and i just relieved how much of it I had remembered from then.
This could be very helpful to my academic and professional life but I really don't see much of how this would help me besides of all to handle sentence writing.

Was I surprised by the results? Why or why not?
I was most definitely surprised by my results even though when I was in school I passed English and Reading with flying colors.
I didn't really take much time in paying attention to the work but I finished it.
And by the time it came to the end, it showed me how long I had took.
I had then relieved that I was being timed on something I was doing whenever I was paying attention to the tv.

    When you establish a functional organizational structure, you are building a hierarchy based on the job role of each employee. Functional organizational structure groups together employees who work toward a common goal. For example, all of your marketing employees would be in the same group. Even if you only have two or three employees who fulfill the marketing role of your small business, you would structure it so one person is in charge, such as the vice president of marketing. His team would consist of a marketing manager and a public relations manager. The functional structure provides focus to the employees, because they know they are working toward a common goal. In this example, the common goal is marketing and promoting the business.…

    Describe how a CIRT plan helps an organization mitigate risk. A CIRT plan helps an organization mitigate risk by helping the organization prepare for incidents. This allows for the company to respond to a problem quicker than they would without a plan. One of the most important benefits to the plan is the naming of a CIR team and what their responsibilities are. This allows for the organization to train the team for what skills are needed to help the company when the problem arises. Without a plan the team does not gain the benefit to analyze the response so they will not know how to correctly fix the problem.…

    Financial planning is the steps or goals used by a company to accomplish financial goals and prepare for future projects or investments. Starbucks has to have a very detailed financial plan in place especially when planning to expand internationally. When conducting business internationally there are some risk factors that do not apply when conducting domestic business. Starbucks has to first consider foreign exchange rates, political climates and events, and international trade laws are just a few. Another risk factor would be being able to trust the people you’re dealing with. Will the supplier be able to deliver the same quality product that your domestic businesses are supplying? When operating business in foreign countries a business wants to be sure that the product will remain the same quality especially when Starbucks is putting their name on the product. They expect the product to be the same as they have been producing domestically. Another thing to be considered by Starbucks is the environmental risks. Some companies have stricter laws pertaining to permits and document filing. It may be more difficult for Starbucks to get their plan approved in a foreign country. The final thing that needs to be considered is the financial risk. At one time, the U.S. dollar was king and traded favorably against all other currencies as the global reserve currency. “In recent years, the dollar has lost some of its ground to other currencies. If you own a U.S. company engaging in business overseas, the risk and expense involved in converting dollars to the local currency may fall on your shoulders where it once did not.” (Morello, 2013). Starbucks should consider operating in a country where they can bank with the same bank internationally as they bank with domestically.…

    Autism Spectrum Disorder is a diagnoses for individual with a group of complex disorders of brain development. This disorder is characterized in varying degrees, by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 1 in 68 children are diagnosed as being on the spectrum, with boys being four to five times more likely to be diagnosed with autism than girls. As there is no cure for autism, research is on-going to help children and families to decrease the negative effects autism has on those with the diagnoses and this includes studies on medications. In the article, Cognitive Effects of Risperidone in Children with Autism and Irritable Behavior, the effects of the popular drug Risperidone is tested on children on the autism spectrum who also have irritable behaviors, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or disruptive behavior disorders. The focus is on what question the authors are trying to answer by doing this research and what hypothesis is being tested and the concepts that were applied in this process. Other important aspects of this study include the statistical analysis employed in this studies, the variables used and the possibility more and/or different variables may have been used to enhance the outcome of the study. As with any statistical research study, there are going to be limitations. The fact that autism affects so many people, the better understanding we can gain about possible medications and therapies will be helpful to families and educators of people on the autism spectrum.…
