Create a Learning Solution
Your challenge for this course is to design a case-based learning solution for non-learning leaders wanting to understand learning theory (4-5 whole pages and Design Template).
Intended Audience: any leader who wants to understand the role of learning in their organization and who does not have a background in learning theory or instructional design
Technology Level: the solution needs to have simple low-tech elements to it such that a leader without a computer could complete the course as easily as one with a computer.
Demonstrates design theory and practice: the solution must not only cover content about learning theory and design but must demonstrate effective application of learning theory and practice.
Tools: MS Word and PowerPoint will be sufficient for most designs and deliverables but should not be considered to be the only tools that may be used.
Outcomes: the desired level of competency for your audience is that they “can justify learning solutions for development of their people and their business.” You will need to break this down into more precise sub-components. Differences between how each person in class breaks down the outcomes will be part of what gives each person’s solution uniqueness.
Length: the solution’s length is not defined for you other than to say that, for leaders, the more concise a learning solution is, the more likely they are to attend and participate long enough to actually learn something.
Deliverables: the required deliverables will be a design document (example design template is provided in Module 1, but is not required) and examples of materials proposed in the design. You do not need to have the materials developed out to a final version. However, you need a sampling that gives a clear picture of how you would deploy this class. If your design includes a participant manual and an instructor manual, then you need a chapter of each. If your design includes slides for an instructor to use in delivering lesson content, then you need enough examples of those slides to be able to “see” and “experience” the learning. If you expect to provide a handout or job aid, then mock one up for submission.
Delivery Methods: Submit all elements of your design to the final project drop box in Module 8.

Supplemental Reading Posts
Each module contains a Supplemental Reading Post where students must submit one post per week. The goal of the post is for the student to describe the lessons learned in the material which they believe applies to their management career ahead. Critique of the material is also welcome.
Each week students will:
Be asked to comment on two of the items (Items include journal articles and videos) in the Supplemental Reading Post module
Find an academic peer-reviewed article similar to one of the items to attach to their post. Some modules have as many as 10 items to choose from, but you only need to comment on two items.
The post should be in the form of a single thread with all of the topics included in the one thread. The thread should contain three to five sentences per item and have an attached PDF version of the student’s new article attached. If there are both articles and videos, a student should choose one of each. In the case you only find articles and no videos, you do two articles and vice versa.
A sample post will be provided in the first Supplemental Reading Post.
Expectations:
The approximate length of a response: 6-10 sentences (3-5 sentences per item (article/video).
Students are not required to respond to other student’s posts.
Each forum is only available for the dates listed in the forum.
All posts are due by Sunday at 11:59 PM of the week of the module.
Posts are worth two points each.
Students will be evaluated on their ability to utilize the concepts presented in the text to explain how these articles and videos inform their management career ahead.
Grades will normally be posted within 5 days.
Feedback for the Supplemental Reading Post will be provided when the student is not on track.
Emailed submissions will not be accepted.
No group work is required.
No attachments! Use the space provided on the board to write or paste your post

New Article: In Favor of hospitality management educations
Synopsis: The article explains the arguments and criticism one receives from getting the education in hospitality. Since there are some individuals whom believe it’s more of a common sense industry this article shows reasons why it’s also a great idea to pursue this industry through education.
Lesson for my management career: A few times I have had people ask me why pursue a degree in hospitality and instead just work my way up. The article is informative of the importance of education. One does have the common sense of serving others but all the strategies and an extra layer of knowledge is achieved through reading. I am proud to be completing my education for the hospitality field.

What is antigenic drift? | Nursing School Essays

/in /by

Antigenic drift is the slow accumulation of small mutations in a virus that accumulate over time as the virus replicates.
A person infected with a particular virus develops antibodies against that virus.
As the small mutations accumulate, the antibodies created against the older virus eventually will not recognize the “newer” virus.
The most common example is the flu virus.
Each year’s flu virus contains three strains of the virus.
After vaccination, the immune system creates antibodies that protect against these strains.
If the virus mutates too much, the antibodies are not able to recognize its antigens, and it will again be able to infect the cells.
This flow chart from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases illustrates the process.

11. You learned about negative feedback in Chapter 1. Apply the concept of negative feedback to a multi-enzyme pathway.12. Describe diffusion equilibrium in terms of flux and net flux.13. Does net flux proceed in a specific direction? If so, describe that direction. 14. What are the 2 types of mediated-transport and describe the three factors that determine the magnitude of flux in a mediated-transport system.15. Transport maximum refers to the point at which increases in concentration do not result in an increase in movement of a substance across a membrane. Which, facilitated diffusion or active transport, has transport maximum? Or do they both?16. Refer to your lecture notes for this question: Describe the relationship between “facilitated diffusion”, “mediated transport”, and “passive transport”.17. Differentiate between simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. Describe in words what is happening in each situation in terms of concentration and direction of movement. 18. Is it correct to say that primary active transport uses ATP directly and secondary active transport uses ATP indirectly? Explain.19. Is covalent modulation associated with primary active transport?20. What is an ATPase?21. If a solution has high osmolarity, what does that tell you about the concentration of water in that solution?22. How does the concentration of non-penetrating solutes in an isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic solutions compare to normal extracellular fluid?23. Describe the process of receptor-mediated endocytosis using a clathrin-coated pit.
