onsider the roles of internal and external stakeholders and consider one of the following projects: A municipal airport is considering letting larger planes land at its facilities. This will bring added tourism but also more noise and pollution. A paper factory is expanding its production at one plant. This will provide local high paying jobs but also create more traffic and potential pollution. A school wants to consolidate classes to save on teachers’ wages. This will save local taxpayers money but may lead to classroom overcrowding. Identify the possible internal and external stakeholders who could be partners for the project. Propose two committees, which would be part of a strategic management process, to address the opportunities and costs of the project. Articulate how you would integrate the external stakeholders into the strategic management process and how you would keep stakeholders informed. Based on your analysis, propose an optimal solution?

As simple as possible. Please
In C++ Computers are playing an increasing role
in education.
Write a program that will help an elementary school student learn
multiplication. Use rand() to
produce two positive single digit integers. It should then display
a question in the following format
(assume 6 and 7 are randomly generated):
How much is 6 * 7?
The student then types the answer. Your program checks the
student’s answer. If it is correct, print
“Very good!” If the answer is wrong, print “No. Please try again.”
and then let the student
try the same question again repeatedly until the student finally
gets it right. If the number of
incorrect exceeds five, the program should leave the question,
display “Let’s try another
one!” and ask a different question. After every answer, the program
should ask whether the user
wants to continue the program and based on the response, the
program should be continued or
terminated.

Mr Ahuja have always been interested in whether or not where a student sits is related to the students overall grades in school. Below is a table that divides students into 3 seating areas: Front, Middle, and Back with their given GPAS.
Front Middle Back
3.062 2.859 2.583
3.894 2.639 2.653
2.966 3.634 3.09
3.575 3.564 3.06
4 2.115 2.463
2.69 3.08 2.598
3.523 2.937 2.879
3.332 3.091 2.926
3.885 2.655 3.221
3.559 2.526 2.646
Calculate a One-Way ANOVA table (using EXCEL) for the data above. Complete the following: At α = .05, test to see if there is a significant difference among the average GPA of all the students based on three areas of seating. Use both the critical and p-value approaches. Include hypotheses, critical values, results, and conclusions in the language of the problem.

As our module reading highlights, applying test-taking skills involves what students do before, during and after the test. It includes managing test anxiety, becoming familiar with types of test questions, and using tests as a learning tool.
Think about these components as you review your process in applying test-taking skills.

Fill in the blanks to make the following statements correct.
a. In the long run, total output is determined only by ▼ (potential output or actual output). In the long run, aggregate demand determines the ▼ (price level or output level).
b. Permanent increases in real GDP are possible only if ▼ (potential output or actual output) is increasing.
c. Suppose illiteracy in Canada were eliminated, and the school dropout rate was reduced to zero. The effect would be a permanent▼(decrease or increase) in productivity and ▼ (a decrease or an increase) in potential output.
d. A reduction in corporate income tax is likely to make▼ (net exports or investment or consumption) more attractive and thus shift the ▼(aggregate supply or aggregate demand) curve to the right. The result is ▼(an increase or a decrease) in the short-run level of real GDP. In the long run, the greater rate of ▼ (net exports or consumption or investment) by firms will lead to a greater level of ▼(potential GDP or actual GDP).

Address how gender identity is formed, the scientific evidence for the differences between the genders, and the various influences (biological, social, and cultural) that affect these differences.
Assume you are making a presentation as part of a national symposium on gender development. Your contribution will serve as the introductory presentation to provide context to the symposium and your co-presenters. The target audience for this project is the research community.
Research how gender identity is formed.
Develop a presentation that addresses the following:
Introduction: Overview of presentation
The history of the study of gender
Ways in which gender is studied
Psychological theories about gender development
Relative roles of biological, social, and cultural influences on gender (such as stereotyping and discrimination)
Scientific evidence for gender differences in the following areas:
School and work
Relationships and sexuality
Health and wellness
Stress, coping, and psychopathology
Conclusions that forecast the landscape for gender development at work and home, and in political arenas and initiatives in the coming years
