Mary Ford sent an email to Hector Fuentes opposing Governor Gainor's plan to privatize the state DMV's information systems management. Ford claims privatization would lead to age discrimination against experienced employees and violate the Pendleton Act of 1883. She argues the union should challenge the plan and that Fuentes would gain union members' votes by opposing it. However, Ford provides little credible evidence and makes assumptions without considering other causes for the governor's plan. Her arguments contain logical fallacies and rely more on personal experience than facts.
This document outlines the basic decision-making process which includes identifying the problem, gathering information, analyzing alternatives, choosing an alternative, implementing it, and following up. It notes that the amount of information gathered should depend on the potential consequences. When making a decision, it's important to consider if it addresses the underlying cause, may set precedent, and could adversely affect other operations. Every decision involves some risk and uncertainty, so analyzing alternatives aims to reduce that. The "no-decision option" of consciously deciding not to decide or ignoring the situation can have major consequences. Any decisions must fall within one's scope of authority.

The document discusses Medicaid planning for singles to pay for nursing home costs, which average $7-9,000 per month. It provides two planning examples: 1) A single client with $250,000 creates an irrevocable trust, gifts $220,000 to it, and receives monthly income to cover expenses. 2) A single client admitted to a nursing home with $75,000 does planning to protect $37,500 in a trust and annuity to cover a five month Medicaid ineligibility period before qualifying. Both techniques allow funds to cover non-medical costs and preserve assets for heirs.
The document discusses recent developments and changes to Medicaid rules. It provides an overview of Medicaid eligibility, including that it applies to those over 65, blind, or disabled who meet medical, income, and asset tests. It notes that the home can be kept if not in a trust but may be subject to probate, and that delays in processing applications have increased due to state budget cuts and new computer systems.

The document provides an overview of resources for online teaching and learning from Virginia Commonwealth University. It addresses topics such as faculty readiness for online teaching, course design, online pedagogy, community building, and copyright/academic integrity considerations. Technical support, library services, and assistive technologies for students are also covered. The goal is to equip instructors with knowledge on best practices and tools for delivering high-quality online instruction.
This document discusses the definitions, purposes, roles, and differences between evaluation and supervision in education. Evaluation is defined as systematically examining the effects of policies, projects, and programs on their targets. Supervision involves overseeing and giving guidance to teachers and staff. Both aim to determine quality standards and ensure learner achievement. Key differences are that evaluation is a policy function while supervision is administrative. Common approaches include classroom observations, document reviews, and interviews. The roles of supervisors include motivating staff, ensuring resources and facilities are adequate, and handling disciplinary issues.
The document discusses the key differences between high school and college. In high school, students are expected to memorize facts, teachers provide structure and motivation, and grades are based more on effort. In contrast, college requires analyzing and applying information, managing your own schedule and motivation, and grades depend solely on performance. It also distinguishes between rote learning, focused on memorization, and meaningful learning, focused on understanding relationships between facts. The document concludes that to succeed in college, students must take responsibility for their own learning by developing effective study skills and managing their time and stress.
The document discusses different conceptual frameworks for understanding community development, including community organizing, community building, and community development. It notes that the terms are often used interchangeably but refer to different concepts with different assumptions. Community organizing focuses on localized control and bringing underrepresented groups into decision-making, while community building seeks to develop relationships and address problems through internal assets. Community development typically involves external experts identifying and addressing problems.
The document then maps the housing department's current community efforts, finding they primarily fall under community development. It suggests incorporating more elements of community building and organizing for programs to be successful. A new framework called "community dynamics" is proposed that assesses inclusivity, commitment and consensus at different levels from community organizing
The document discusses a technology think tank campus life cluster presentation by Steven Thiele and Stan Dura. The presentation introduces several free or low-cost technologies including Acrobat, Google Docs, Wikis, Google Reader, Facebook, and Animoto. It discusses their potential uses and limitations. The audience is asked to discuss opportunities and barriers to using these technologies. A general recommendation is made to establish a standing technology committee.
Pre-test post-test is a quantitative technique used to measure the difference in responses to the same set of questions before and after a program or service. It compares responses before and after to determine the effect of the program. Advantages include measuring self-assessment and recall, while disadvantages include potential validity issues from testing effects, maturation, and bias. The document provides tips on question design and alternatives to standard pre-test post-test to improve validity, such as using diaries, role plays, control groups, or informants.
This proposal outlines a plan to implement a near-paperless front desk at the Tonopah Complex. It would require a new computer, digital signature pad, second monitor, time-clock software, and other software. The initial cost is estimated at $2,454 with annual savings of $3,011 from direct cost savings of forms and timesheets as well as labor savings. The project would pay for itself within 1-2 years based on the estimated savings. The proposal provides details on the requirements, costs, and processes that would be involved in transitioning to a paperless system.
The document discusses developing homegrown assessments for residential life programs. It covers basic principles of survey design like identifying constructs to measure, developing questions, testing the instrument, and evaluating validity and reliability. The presentation provides guidance on formative steps like creating clear questions without biases, determining appropriate response scales, and using iterative processes like factor analysis to refine assessments. The overall goal is to develop increasingly valid and useful surveys through rigorous formative evaluation and data analysis.
This document discusses using concept maps to foster learning in living and learning communities. It provides an overview of concept maps, including their definition as a visual representation of information. An example is described of a leadership-themed living and learning program that uses individual reflective interviews structured around a course curriculum, where students represent their evolving understanding through concept maps. Methods of analyzing concept maps are discussed, such as examining changes in students' conceptual understanding, complexity of maps, and nature of relationships, which can provide insights into students' learning.
