MGT 330 UNC Resistance to Change Discussion
SOURCEKiran, D.R. (2016). Total Quality Management: Key Concepts and Case Studies, 1st Edition, Butterworth-Heinemann, 2016. ISBN-13: 978-0128110355Exercise: How Would You Have Handled the Situation? The layout improvement project explained in our case study was planned very meticulously, providing several new facilities to the workers, elimination of crowded work areas, etc. This project was worker-friendly and was expected to be implemented without resistance. But it was not so. If you are the Works Manager, how would you have handled this situation? Use Chapters 8, 10 and 11 to build your case (400 words)CASE:The Works Manager of M/s XYZ & Co, a medium-scale industry manufacturing engineering products called the supervisors of all the departments for a meeting. An MBA from Harvard University has a high reputation of being a dynamic leader, having experience in industrial engineering. He opened the meeting with an appreciation for the good performance the company made in the past 2 years and commended the role of the workmen, especially the supervisors, in achieving this high performance level.He recalled how the company started its operation 10 years back in an old barracks type of building. The office was located in the front room, while each of the seven rooms housed stores and machinery, as and when they are procured. A small extension for this building was made with a semiopen asbestos roofing, housing maintenance, fettling, bench drills, etc., a large backyard is left unused.Due to the good performance of the company, expansion of activities became inevitable and it was contemplated to extend the building to cover a major portion of the backyard. The existing layout had obvious inefficiencies causing obstructions to the free movement of the men and materials. A comprehensive study was made with specific reference to the movement. The improved layout, the works manager explained, took care of all these factors providing more facilities for the workmen. The basic changes, according to him were insignificant, except movement of certain machinery, removal of certain partition walls, and relocation of the workmen.All the supervisors stared blankly at the works Manager and showed no signs of happiness. They were apprehensive that their workmen would resist the change.In the existing system of working, senior workers of the machine shop were closeted in a cozy room, but would have to be shifted to a large hall, together with other semiskilled operatives working on smaller machines. In the assembly shop instead of clustering around a larger work table in quiet conditions and chit-chatting, they would now have to work in a larger hall with individual smaller tables, one behind the other.All this meant too much for senior workers, since skilled workers are equated with semiskilled workers and are made to move out of the cozy rooms. They decided to approach their union, which in turn could force the management not to undertake the re-layout work.The above is just one case in point to illustrate how resistance to changes occur. We all know that most of the management techniques to raise productivity aim at methods improvement or systems improvement. But the very word improvement is linked with the action of change and the consequent resistance to change is more psychological than the workers being against the change itself. While in a majority of cases, the resistance is from the operatives, many times the resistance comes from personnel higher up in the ladder, even from the departmental heads.A sincere attempt to understand the possible motive for such a resistance, as well as the past history responsible for the development of such a resistance, together with complete analysis of the situation, would possibly enable the management to plan a rational course of action for successful implementation of the change.

End of Issues
Questions 1 a.) Writing Your Obituary Included in the psychosocial aspects of end of life issues is the notification of family, friends, and the larger community of the death of a person. Beyond the personal contact and widening pattern from the immediate family to others, notification also takes place in newspapers in the obituary section. If you have read such notices, you saw that some were too brief to give justice to the life of the deceased person, perhaps because someone had to do it in a hurry to get it in on time or was too upset, or did not have enough background on the person. It is wise to draft your own obituary in advance and give copies to the appropriate person(s) to have ready. Your task is to write your personal obituary for your local hometown paper. Give thought to how you will appear in print after you are gone for family and progeny to keep and for the community to recognize you. It is to be written for now/today, not in the future. There are some guidelines for doing this for a newspaper. The information should be word-processed rather then hand written. In the upper left corner provide the name of a contact (usually a close family member) who can verify information and provide more details about the death if needed. (Include phone number, although not necessary to include for this assignment.) The first paragraph is a straightforward summary of facts such as name, occupation, age and date of death. Often the cause of death is noted as well. The next paragraph or two should give highlights and major activities of your life such as schools attended, education, work history, volunteerism, military, professional, government or organizing activities, sports, little league coach and others. Include any special positions or offices you held as well as any activities or awards in high school sports or academics. Next, include survivors/family, and geographic locations if not too lengthy. Then, be clear about any funeral or memorial services to be held with appropriate location and time information. File your finished obituary with your will and give copies to your attorney and appropriate family members. You may want copies sent (upon your death) to schools, organizations, or professional publications. Make this obituary yours, do not model on some brief write-up you see in a major paper with many such notices. Do it as a local project for the place/community who would know you best. In such a transient era, you may have lived only a year or two in a new location because of a job. The finished product is to be 2-3 paragraph single space Lastly, review and update your obituary every few years for any changes and updates in location, job, family members, and others. b.) Final Rite of Passage Notice how these discussion topics relate to the real world; disasters and accidents dominate our news. Our preparedness considers those who will be responsible to carry out our final wishes for unexpected deaths or tragic events. This week, you are to write your wishes, from your cultural/spiritual perspective, as to how you want your death from your cultural perspective acknowledged. Funeral, memorial service, celebration, music, eulogy, where – outside beautiful setting, or cremation with a small service in the home at a later time, or other arrangement. What would be the most meaningful to you now as you foresee this event? Enter your arrangements for your final rite of passage and make copies and give to those who will follow. Make this assignment real: who would participate; what favorite music would you want; the eulogy, family members or friends who would give farewell comments, pallbearers: if you are to be viewed, how would you want that; if cremated, what about disposition of the remains; any written words from you that you would want read? What would you want emphasized about your life – this is especially important and is more personal and informal than the obituary. Write your response as a smooth flowing essay with details. You have likely thought about this, so now put this last part of your final affairs in order. Background: How you feel about planning your final rite. Who will be responsible for carrying out/managing details. The Body: Viewing, Cremation Location and Service: Wake/Viewing, Funeral Service, Memorial Service, where interred or other The Event: Eulogies, Music, etc. Post Service Gathering: Invitees, Reception, Location If you choose to have no final event, then respond accordingly and give reasons for your choice; rationale/logic, any family issues or personal issues (that you are comfortable to share). Then reflect and comment on how others, family or those in intimate relationships, might be affected if there is no final arrangement for closure. You may give your views on any final service you have previously attended, positive or otherwise, and how that may have influenced your decision. (This discussion must be substantial). 2-3 paragraph single space Key Terms and Phrases Advance Directive: A written document that tells what a person wants or does not want, if in the future is unable to make wishes known about medical treatment. Artificial Nutrition and Hydration: When food and water are fed to a person through a tube. Autopsy: An examination done on a dead body to find the cause of death. Comfort Care: Care that helps to keep a person comfortable but does not make him/her better. Bathing, turning, keeping a person's lips moist are types of comfort care. CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation): Treatment to try and restart a person's breathing or heartbeat. CPR may be done by pushing on the chest, by putting a tube down the throat, or by other treatment. Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care: An advance directive that appoints someone to make medical decisions for a person if, in the future, he/she can't make his/her own medical decisions.

SPD550 Grand Canyon University Special Education Teaching Project
Assignment 1 A special education teacher in a resource setting has a very difficult job, meeting the needs of a variety of students and covering a multitude of subject matters in a single class period. Being able to properly structure your class and effectively manage class time will help you meet the needs of all students and not become overwhelmed. Adding a number of strategies and accommodations to your teaching repertoire will also increase your efficacy in the classroom.For this assignment, take on the role of a first-year special education teacher who has been assigned to the resource room to work with students who are working at the ninth grade level for both English and math. You have about 10 students during this class period and an aide to assist you. Students meet with you for 50 minutes each day to get help with homework, finish their classwork, study for tests, and get extra support in each subject area. You will need to structure the class so that student needs in both subject areas will have time to be addressed.Use the “Class Profile” to obtain specific information about the needs of your students.Part 1: Teacher InquiriesIn 250 words compose a response for the following:Questions you would have about your teaching assignment before it begins, including any requests for additional information.Questions you would have for fellow teachers and administration.Information you would like to have before the end of the first week of school.Provide a rationale for each inquiry. Cite both the “Class Profile” and an additional minimum of two outside scholarly resources in your responses.Part 2: Classroom EnvironmentIn 500 words compose a response for the following:Provide a minimum of three possible ways to structure the classroom setting.Provide a minimum of two possible ways to structure a class period.Provide a minimum of three instructional strategies, to include accommodations and/or assistive technology, to meet the curricular content needs of your students in both the English language arts and math classes.Provide two collaboration strategies to use when working with the classroom aide assisting you in meeting the needs of the students in the resource room setting.Provide support for your responses, citing both the “Class Profile” and an additional minimum of two outside scholarly resources.While APA format is not required for the body of the assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelinesAssignment 2 Meet with a certified special educator who co-teaches in an inclusive classroom at a school of your choice; ideally the school is at the grade range in which you would like to teach (e.g., elementary, middle, secondary). Co-teaching in this instance would include a special education teacher working with a general education teacher, paraeducator, instructional assistant, or related services professional/support staff.Prior to observing the teacher, ask the following questions:How often do you meet with your co-teacher for planning purposes and collaboration? Do you share a planning period or meet outside of school hours?What partnership arrangement did you make with your co-teacher before you began your co-teaching relationship?Did you choose the colleague you work with, or was this teaching arrangement assigned to you without your input?How did you prepare for being a co-teacher? Do you enjoy it? Why or why not?What challenges should all special educators be prepared to overcome in inclusive co-teaching classrooms? What are the benefits of a co-teaching relationship?What have your personal experiences as a co-teacher shown you related to student success?After your conversation with the teacher, spend the remainder of your field experience hours observing and assisting the teacher as he or she teaches, assesses students, and plans for future lessons. Keep notes on the co-teacher’s role in the classroom as well as the professional relationship between the two teachers.Summarize your observations and conversation in 250 words, citing specific things you noted. Be sure to reflect upon what you thought you might see and what you actually saw. How did your field experience change your views about the role of a co-teacher in an inclusive classroom? Did you note any challenges? Any successes? Compare your observations to what research has shown about important elements of co-teaching relationships. In addition, explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice.Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.APA format is required, and solid academic writing is expected.Assignment 3 essential part of being a special educator is writing and implementing IEPs and lesson plans associated with goals on IEPs. Due to legal requirements, special educators should understand the steps that go into planning effective lessons and appropriate accommodations for students with disabilities. Being able to translate IEP goals into learning objectives and accompanying lessons requires practice.Review "Marcus Partial IEP and Lesson" to inform the assignment.Upon reviewing the Present Level of Performance and the second grade literacy-based standards, create one academic goal specific to Marcus' needs. Include this academic goal within the “Lesson Summary and Focus” section of the “COE Lesson Plan Template.”Design a standards-based lesson plan, using the “COE Lesson Plan Template,” that modifies and extends skills taught in Marcus’ sample lesson plan and is aligned to his identified academic goal.Write a 250-500 word rationale explaining your instructional choices, how your lesson extends the skills taught in the “Sample Lesson Plan” for Marcus, and how the lesson is appropriate for meeting Marcus’ academic goal. Discuss how elements of UDL will be incorporated to enhance Marcus’ learning.Assignment 4 An essential component of being a special educator is adapting lessons and making accommodations for students who are performing below grade level, while still aligning to the state curriculum standards. Meeting the students’ needs is more than simplifying the lesson or teaching on a lower grade level; it is about teaching to each child’s unique strengths rather than their weaknesses.Read the scenario below to inform the assignment that follows:Imagine you are a resource ELA teacher for fifth graders. Your resource class consists of nine students who are reading 2-3 grade levels below their peers.Three of your students have specific learning disabilities in the area of reading; one has been diagnosed with ASD, and two have emotional and behavioral disorders which affect their academics in all areas. Two students have mild intellectual disabilities and one student is a speech and language impaired student who is struggling with reading.One student was retained and is repeating fifth grade, and one is a new student whose records have not yet arrived, but reports this is his second time in fifth grade.All of your students are decoding and comprehending at approximately a second to third grade reading level. All attend general education classes for at least part of the day. Eight of the nine students are males who show an interest in science and nonfiction texts, while your female student considers herself to be a fairy princess, she adores Disney, and she detests all the topics the other students love.Review Appendix B of the Common Core Standards and select a fifth-grade exemplar informational text.Using the “COE Lesson Plan Template,” create a lesson plan designed to meet the specific needs of the students in your class that enhances language development and communication skills, and incorporates:The chosen fifth grade exemplar informational text.A Common Core Standard or other state standard specific to informational text.Assistive technology within the lesson and the lesson’s summative assessment.In the “Rationale/Reflections” part of the lesson plan, write a 250-word rationale explaining your instructional choices. Be sure to address how the lesson enhances language development and communication skills. In addition, reflect upon how you would provide students feedback on formative assessments to prepare them for a summative assessment.

You will need to structure the class so that student needs in both subject areas will have time to be addressed.Use the “Class Profile” to obtain specific information about the needs of your students.Part 1: Teacher InquiriesIn 250 words compose a response for the following:Questions you would have about your teaching assignment before it begins, including any requests for additional information.Questions you would have for fellow teachers and administration.Information you would like to have before the end of the first week of school.Provide a rationale for each inquiry. Cite both the “Class Profile” and an additional minimum of two outside scholarly resources in your responses.Part 2: Classroom EnvironmentIn 500 words compose a response for the following:Provide a minimum of three possible ways to structure the classroom setting.Provide a minimum of two possible ways to structure a class period.Provide a minimum of three instructional strategies, to include accommodations and/or assistive technology, to meet the curricular content needs of your students in both the English language arts and math classes.Provide two collaboration strategies to use when working with the classroom aide assisting you in meeting the needs of the students in the resource room setting.Provide support for your responses, citing both the “Class Profile” and an additional minimum of two outside scholarly resources.While APA format is not required for the body of the assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelinesAssignment 2 Meet with a certified special educator who co-teaches in an inclusive classroom at a school of your choice; ideally the school is at the grade range in which you would like to teach (e.g., elementary, middle, secondary). Co-teaching in this instance would include a special education teacher working with a general education teacher, paraeducator, instructional assistant, or related services professional/support staff.Prior to observing the teacher, ask the following questions:How often do you meet with your co-teacher for planning purposes and collaboration? Do you share a planning period or meet outside of school hours?What partnership arrangement did you make with your co-teacher before you began your co-teaching relationship?Did you choose the colleague you work with, or was this teaching arrangement assigned to you without your input?How did you prepare for being a co-teacher? Do you enjoy it? Why or why not?What challenges should all special educators be prepared to overcome in inclusive co-teaching classrooms? What are the benefits of a co-teaching relationship?What have your personal experiences as a co-teacher shown you related to student success?After your conversation with the teacher, spend the remainder of your field experience hours observing and assisting the teacher as he or she teaches, assesses students, and plans for future lessons. Keep notes on the co-teacher’s role in the classroom as well as the professional relationship between the two teachers.Summarize your observations and conversation in 250 words, citing specific things you noted. Be sure to reflect upon what you thought you might see and what you actually saw. How did your field experience change your views about the role of a co-teacher in an inclusive classroom? Did you note any challenges? Any successes? Compare your observations to what research has shown about important elements of co-teaching relationships. In addition, explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice.Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.APA format is required, and solid academic writing is expected.Assignment 3 essential part of being a special educator is writing and implementing IEPs and lesson plans associated with goals on IEPs. Due to legal requirements, special educators should understand the steps that go into planning effective lessons and appropriate accommodations for students with disabilities. Being able to translate IEP goals into learning objectives and accompanying lessons requires practice.Review "Marcus Partial IEP and Lesson" to inform the assignment.Upon reviewing the Present Level of Performance and the second grade literacy-based standards, create one academic goal specific to Marcus' needs. Include this academic goal within the “Lesson Summary and Focus” section of the “COE Lesson Plan Template.”Design a standards-based lesson plan, using the “COE Lesson Plan Template,” that modifies and extends skills taught in Marcus’ sample lesson plan and is aligned to his identified academic goal.Write a 250-500 word rationale explaining your instructional choices, how your lesson extends the skills taught in the “Sample Lesson Plan” for Marcus, and how the lesson is appropriate for meeting Marcus’ academic goal. Discuss how elements of UDL will be incorporated to enhance Marcus’ learning.Assignment 4 An essential component of being a special educator is adapting lessons and making accommodations for students who are performing below grade level, while still aligning to the state curriculum standards. Meeting the students’ needs is more than simplifying the lesson or teaching on a lower grade level; it is about teaching to each child’s unique strengths rather than their weaknesses.Read the scenario below to inform the assignment that follows:Imagine you are a resource ELA teacher for fifth graders. Your resource class consists of nine students who are reading 2-3 grade levels below their peers.Three of your students have specific learning disabilities in the area of reading; one has been diagnosed with ASD, and two have emotional and behavioral disorders which affect their academics in all areas. Two students have mild intellectual disabilities and one student is a speech and language impaired student who is struggling with reading.One student was retained and is repeating fifth grade, and one is a new student whose records have not yet arrived, but reports this is his second time in fifth grade.All of your students are decoding and comprehending at approximately a second to third grade reading level. All attend general education classes for at least part of the day. Eight of the nine students are males who show an interest in science and nonfiction texts, while your female student considers herself to be a fairy princess, she adores Disney, and she detests all the topics the other students love.Review Appendix B of the Common Core Standards and select a fifth-grade exemplar informational text.Using the “COE Lesson Plan Template,” create a lesson plan designed to meet the specific needs of the students in your class that enhances language development and communication skills, and incorporates:The chosen fifth grade exemplar informational text.A Common Core Standard or other state standard specific to informational text.Assistive technology within the lesson and the lesson’s summative assessment.In the “Rationale/Reflections” part of the lesson plan, write a 250-word rationale explaining your instructional choices. Be sure to address how the lesson enhances language development and communication skills. In addition, reflect upon how you would provide students feedback on formative assessments to prepare them for a summative assessment.
