Transforming Students’ Motivation to Learn Carol S. DweckWinter 2008 This is an exciting time for our brains. More and more research is showing that our brains change constantly with learning and experience and that this takes place throughout our lives. Does this have implications for students' motivation and learning? It certainly does. In my research in collaboration with my graduate students, we have shown that what students believe about their brains — whether they see their intelligence as something that's fixed or something that can grow and change — has profound effects on their motivation, learning, and school achievement (Dweck, 2006). These different beliefs, or mindsets, create different psychological worlds: one in which students are afraid of challenges and devastated by setbacks, and one in which students relish challenges and are resilient in the face of setbacks. How do these mindsets work? How are the mindsets communicated t.

Nur 6053. Mod2 Wk3 Assignment: Developing Organizational Policies and Practices Competing needs arise within any organization as employees seek to meet their targets and leaders seek to meet company goals. As a leader, successful management of these goals requires establishing priorities and allocating resources accordingly. Within a healthcare setting, the needs of the workforce, resources, and patients are often in conflict. Mandatory overtime, implementation of staffing ratios, use of unlicensed assisting personnel, and employer reductions of education benefits are examples of practices that might lead to conflicting needs in practice.

Note: This document is a much summarized version of the items your next examination is based on. It is only intended to be used as one of the several sources students should use to study for the exam. Review Monopoly, Monopolistic Competition, and Oligopoly market structures (which are also part of your week 4 and week 5 lectures) as this was not included in exam 1. I have given an outline in the study guide for the three market structures it is enough if you focus on these outline. Give a quick review of four market structures. This will help you to understand topic 4, topic 5, topic 6, topic 7. Oligopoly Market structure characterized by competition among a small number of large firms that have market power, but that must take their rivals' actions into account when developing their own competitive strategies. The main feature in an oligopoly, thus, is that firms are interdependent. Given their kinked demand curve, oligopolies will tend to avoid competing in terms of prices (prices tend to fluctuate far less compared to other types of market structures). Price Discrimination Relationship between price and elasticity of demand Marginal analysis rules says that, if MR>MC, reduce price and if MR<MC, increase price Lerner’s Index L = 1/|e|, here L is given by (P-MC)/P which gives the equation (P-MC)/P = 1/|e| Here MR>MC means (P-MC)/P > 1/|e| and MR < MC means (P-MC)/P < 1/|e| (P-MC)/P is the Current Margin of profit, 1/|e| is the Desired Margin of profit If the current margin of profit> desired margin of profit, reduce price. If the current margin of profit < desired margin of profit, increase price. This can be interpreted as, the more elastic the demand becomes, 1/|e| becomes smaller. This leads to decrease in price/the price increase is very slow over MC. This is because the consumer might move to another substitute as the price increases. Pricing commonly owned substitutes If the store owns one brand of substitute, decreasing the price on one brand increase the quantity demanded and increases the revenue If the stores owns two brands of the substitute (Coke and Pepsi, Honda and Toyota), increasing the sales of one brand by reducing the price will steal the sales from the other brand. This is called Cannibalization. To counter the falling MR, raising the price of both the brands (to an extent that it does not affect the sales of the other brand) will lead to higher profits. Reason: This is because these two substitutes are treated as bundle of goods. Firms lose the incentive to drop prices as the firms in such situation is “competing with itself”. Demand for bundle of substitutes are less elastic (EP < 1), than demand for individual products. For products with less elastic demand raise price (higher optimal price) to increase sales and revenue. Note: Raise price more on the more elastic product (EP > 1). This will push the price-sensitive customers to the higher profit margin product. For example, raise prices on both butter and .

Now that we covered all the elements and principles of design put your expertise to use! This lesson will help you analyze and explain the visual elements and principles in a work of art. You are essentially dissecting the art. Figuring out how the artist put the work together, will bring you further understanding of the work, the reasons behind the choices the artist made, how the elements and principles work together in that particular work, and insight into the concept of the piece. Discuss your analysis to broaden your understanding of the work. Be specific as to what effect that element or principle has on the image. **Remember art can range from aesthetically pleasing to commentary whether political, social, ecological, etc. Also we all take our own experiences and cultures with us when viewing artwork. This lends itself to some variation in interpretations. Try to be as objective as possible. Here’s how to complete the assignment: Look up the image, The Ballad of the Jealous Lover of Lone Green Valley by Thomas Hart Benton. Analyze the work, finding the elements of art and principles of design and functions of art that are used in the work. Decide what elements and principles to emphasize in marked up images of the painting and what text to include to complete the presentation in google slides or powerpoint or other slide program. (See Birth of Venus Analysis Video in Resources module for examples of marked up image). Make one slide just for the main shape analysis. ( Guernica example shows implied shapes) Make another slide for a value pattern analysis. It shows how the artist organizes the composition through lights and darks. (If you squint your eyes at the Benton painting it helps to see the reduced values.) ValuePatternEx.pdf . Actions Create 1 or 2 other slides to add to your analysis, include visual aides to make your point. (For example, putting arrows on the image to show the direction your eye follows when looking at the painting. Where do you look first? Where does your eye go from there? Why?) *What other elements or principles do you see in the work? Import the images into a slide program and mark up. (it can also be done outside of the computer, printed image and marker for example, and photographed or scanned back in) Identify, show and discuss the main design elements and principles of the composition- How they contribute to the composition, how it works to enhance the meaning of the piece and to how does it move the viewer around the piece in an orchestrated way. Include text slides (they can be bulleted, but should be concise) with main comments to take us successfully through your analysis of the piece. Do a thorough job. You should have 5-8 slides. Save the slides as a .pdf, .jpg, .pptx, ppt only . Post the presentation to the assignment. Tools for the assignment if you need them.
