Instructional Plan Income Statement, 2004. This instructional paper consists of detailed instructions for preparing a simple income statement. 2,748 words (approx. 11.0 pages), 4 sources, MLA, £ 56.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper is designed to meet the specific needs of a client (a female shoe store owner) who requires instruction in completing the income statement for her small business. As such, the instructions are geared to the client's level of expertise in the area of accounting and focus largely on enabling the client to prepare her income statement with minimal assistance from professional sources such as an accountant, thus potentially reducing her expenses.
From the Paper "This lesson is necessary to help my client in two important areas. The first benefit is practical, as my client will save a significant amount of money by learning to develop her own income statement, rather than relying on the expertise of professional accountants. The client has currently clearly indicated to me that they do not have the specific knowledge that is required to complete this task, and I feel that this instructional paper will fulfill this pressing need. The second benefit is less immediately tangible, and is simply geared at improving my client's general understanding of the accounting practices of her firm. I believe that this instructional paper will improve her overall knowledge about her business' finances, and as such may have unforeseen benefits in helping her to manage financial aspects like cash flow, spending, and budgeting."

An Instructional Improvement Plan, 2005. This paper reviews the literature and designs an instructional improvement plan for an accounting firm. 7,140 words (approx. 28.6 pages), 6 sources, APA, £ 110.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that the goal of an instructional improvement plan is to increase overall profitability through a system, which motivates the staff to increase productivity without sacrificing work quality. The author points out that any kind of performance indicator or assessment involves something that can be measured and recorded; therefore, the author uses a survey to evaluate an employee's work habits and ability to handle the workload. The paper relates that the organization should prepare a plan for the next two quarters in which persons requiring training are taken out in groups, one from each major group within the client handling teams so that the working of the teams are not affected; these persons should be trained separately by experts on all aspects of accounting such as changes and common errors.

From the Paper "One should realize that there are many pieces of equipment and this increases the chances of error due to the human components or the machines. This requires a high quantity of back up information to be stored and Sistersons run a back up tape every night and a back up of the full system every weekend. Even for computer servers, back up is a useful tool. The paperless system also has to be secure as the data stored in the system is very sensitive in nature. This delayed the starting of the system by Sisterson till it was sure that its system was good enough to deter raiders except an industrial grade hack."

Distance-Based Instructional Plan, 2005. This paper discusses extensively and develops a plan for implementing an entire distance-based learning process for a local university. 4,425 words (approx. 17.7 pages), 12 sources, APA, £ 80.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that the concept of distance-based education has become one of the most dynamic and fastest-growing segments of both university and graduate level educations; even many educational institutions that once considered themselves to have long histories with traditional classroom-based learning have begun to expand their existing programs because of technology advances like the internet. The author points out that, although, in the past, it was often considered that students learned more in traditionally based programs than in distance-based programs, distance-based educational programs have been shown to be just as difficult as any brick and mortar classroom setting and, in many instances, may actually offer more of a challenge than traditional counterparts. The paper states that success measurements should be getting students enrolled and successfully through the program plus surveys of students and teachers regarding the ease of use and system reliability.

From the Paper "The world has adjusted to the internet. Consider that local area networking and the internet has changed life to a point where a music download site like KaZaA has approximately one hundred sixty million users worldwide that have downloaded some version of the company's proprietary software. America is now at point where almost all business people are required to check daily emails and their children download internet music and housewives bargain shop on eBay. The advances in technology like file swapping are skills now just taken for granted. The individuals who take these skills for granted are the potential students for a program like this."

Conclusion
From the Paper "Instructional design is a concept by which individuals take key elements that are needed to provide a cohesive delivery of instructions and apply it to that situation."
"One recent study determined that the use of instructional design helped to reduce the repetition of material because the initial phase of the design included a planning period in which the goals for the students were clearly established(Peterson, 2003). This is called the analysis phase and is an important component according to the research conclusion."

Instructional Design Competency Testing, 2004. This paper is a literature review of the instructional design process and the training received by students preparing to be instructional designers. 20,865 words (approx. 83.5 pages), 118 sources, APA, £ 172.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that the process of applying the instructional technology knowledge base to the education and training needs of the work force is referred to as instructional design. The author points out that as instructional technology, and more specifically, instructional design, has evolved, there have been efforts to more effectively meet the needs of business through the training of instructional designers who provide the instructional products business and industry what it needs to train the workforce. The paper concludes that there is a skills mismatch between school and business, representing a cultural shift, which is the result of a significant paradigmatic transference within the educational organizations that has not occurred correspondingly in the business culture; therefore, it is important to create instructional design artifacts that adequately meet the needs of the student and of the businesses in which the students will build careers.

From the Paper "Information can be processed either consciously or automatically, and conscious processing requires more working memory resources than does automatic processing. (Kalyuga , Chandler , and Sweller 1998) Schemas which are stored in long-term memory, with varying degrees of automaticity, form the basis of the conscious thought process. A schema, thought, paradigm, or concept can be stored and retrieved from long-term memory either in fully automated form or in a form that requires conscious consideration of each of the elements and their relations. If a schema can be brought into working memory in automated form, it will make limited demands on working memory resources, and thereby leave more resources available to the person. If a fully automated schema incorporating the problem solution is available in long-term memory for transfer to working memory, solution will proceed easily and smoothly."

Impediments to Health Care Access for Low Income Visible Minorities, 2002. Identifies causal factors for the gap in health care access for lower-income Americans and visible minorities and the more affluent members of America's majority. 29,350 words (approx. 117.4 pages), 135 sources, APA, £ 172.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract As the American population continues to become more diverse racially, members of visible minority groups within the population become more prominent. Simultaneously, with the increase in diversity, income distribution in the American economy has become more distorted. While economic growth in the United States has surged over the past decade, the income gap has widened; not only between the richest and poorest Americans, but also between moderate-income and low-income Americans. Members of visible minorities in the population tend to be represented disproportionately in the low-income and poverty classifications in the United States. While there is an abundance of implications of this state of affairs, one of the more crucial ones is access to health care. Individual and household financial capacity, the scarcity of employer-paid health insurance among small businesses, cultural differences based in social psychology and other factors frequently act as impediments to health care access for low-income individuals and households among visible minority population groups in the contemporary United States. This problem and these issues are investigated in this study. The study identifies causal factors for the gap in health care access between lower-income Americans and members of visible minorities in the United States, on the one hand, and more affluent Americans and members of the majority segment of the population, on the other hand. The initial chapter of this study delineates the problem investigated. Specific research questions are formulated and stated to provide greater focus for the investigation.
Social psychological theory and applied social psychology literature are reviewed in the second chapter. Literature relevant to the functioning of low-income and visible minority population groups in the United States within a social psychological context are reviewed in the third chapter. The fourth chapter is devoted to a review of literature relevant to both the health care system in the United States and the experiences of low-income and visible minority population groups in relation to health care access and health care delivery in the United States. An assessment of the problem investigated, performed within the structure of the research questions, is presented in the final (fifth) chapter. Conclusions drawn from the study findings are stated and recommendations for further research are made. The summary conclusions reached through the conduct of this study relate both to health care access and health care utilization by low-income persons and members of visible minorities. With respect to health care access, the summary conclusion reached is that a universal system of health care entitlement is required in the United States. In relation to health care utilization by low-income persons and members of visible minorities, the summary conclusion reached is that extensive education is required for both low-income persons and members of visible minorities, on the one hand, and health care providers, on the other hand. Low-income persons and members of visible minorities require education on the benefits and function of health care services, while health care providers require education in the social mores of the diverse populations they must serve.

From the Paper "Social Cognitive Theory [self-efficacy] emphasizes the role of expectancies, self-efficacy, peer normative influences, and social competency skills as key components affecting adolescents? behaviors (DiClemente, Lodico, Grinstead, Harper, Rickman, Evans, & Coates, 1996). The applicability of models based on social psychological principles for understanding African-Americans? decision-making and sexual behavior has been questioned because most such models tend to be individually-focused and do not take into account the social context in which the behavior is embedded (Cochran & Mays, 1993). Social cognitive theory, however, explicitly integrates behavioral, cognitive, and environmental factors as reciprocally interactive. Thus, given the hypothesized multi-factorial nature of sexual decision making and the potential impact of the high-risk social environment of the study population, approaches based on social cognitive theory are thought to be particularly relevant for understanding the myriad factors that may affect African-Americans? sexual behavior."

Income Disparities in Latin America, 2002. This paper discusses income disparities in Latin America: The history, main causes, the different countries, high-income disparities, ethnicity and gender, and possible solutions. 5,725 words (approx. 22.9 pages), 12 sources, MLA, £ 95.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper states that, although inequality and high levels of income disparity represent major challenges confronting economists and leaders in many parts of the world, the problem is particularly severe in the Latin American countries. The author believes that the root of this phenomenon lies in the region's colonial history and the exploitation of the indigenous population as slave labor for agriculture and tapping the mines. The paper concludes that these stubborn patterns of inequality can be overcome if determined efforts are made to open political and social policies to all and to provide access by the poorer sections to social services.

Conclusion
From the Paper "Poverty and income disparity are not the same concepts. Poverty may decline in a country or region where income disparity is increasing. However, experience has shown that such a situation occurs rarely and inequality and poverty are closely related. This is because in a growing economy with stable levels of inequality, poverty invariably falls. As a result the Latin American region showed significant reduction in poverty levels in the 1970s, when its economies were growing with a corresponding drop in inequality. On the other hand, the 1980s saw a fall in incomes and more unequal income distribution?resulting in accelerated increase in poverty."

From the Paper "Now, disregarding all the statistical minutia that may or may not be relevant the author will make the following observations regarding the alternate model. This model is depicting the predictive power of the variance of the marginal individual income tax rates among all five income quintiles to the income tax receipts at the federal level. It is apparent from the model that nearly a quarter of the variation in the marginal tax receipts can be predicted through the marginal tax rate, ceteris paribus."

Income Inequality

Is Income Inequality Getting a Bad Rap?
Conclusion
From the Paper "Rising inequality and decreasing poverty could very well be a consistent feature of the New Economy. Rapid technological advancements have not only created great fortunes for a select few, but have also substantially improved the wages and quality of life for people at the lower end of the economic ladder. A better-educated society has also led to less poverty, while still increasing the income inequality gap, since those with college degrees have a wider spread of incomes. Although income inequality is disturbing, it is far better than poverty. More income inequality, with a faster growing economy, and less poverty is far more desirable than an economy with equal distribution of income but a high rate of poverty. This is not the first time in history that this blend of greater income inequality and reduced poverty has occurred."
