Introduction
After completing a needs analysis, the university found that they needed to create a student end-of-term evaluation that was more effective. A needs analysis, sometimes referred to as a gap analysis, is a procedure that finds issues or shortcomings, examines the reasons behind them, and makes recommendations for fixing them (Newbauer, 2023). Organizations can use it to make sure they are on track to meet their objectives and to better understand where they are and where they want to be (Newbauer, 2023). They have some worries that the material on the present evaluation form needs to be revised after reviewing it. At the moment, the university employs the Student-of-Term Evaluation as a tool to confirm that the classes offered are in line with the student's degree plan, the instructor is providing the necessary training, and the students are receiving the correct contact for their class. Towards the conclusion of the term, the student receives an online survey with questions for this evaluation. They must answer using the options offered, which include strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, or disagree strongly. This kind of student review aids the university in assessing the training that their professors have imparted.
Level of Evaluation
The student evaluation at the conclusion of the term is a formative assessment that prioritizes knowledge transfer and student happiness (Purdue Global, n.d.). I would talk about the first evaluation level, which is reactions. In their survey questions, this gauges how satisfied the student is with the program, content, and material (Noe, 2022). This would be the ideal level to evaluate because the university requires an assessment that would provide them with the data they need to improve student learning outcomes. Levels 2 and 3 are additional levels to take into account. In order to ensure that the University produces the finest results for their students, these additional levels ought to be incorporated. It might offer the university insight into the opinions

of the students on the courses. Did they learn anything from the offered content, and was it useful? Additionally, the university would gain insight into how successfully the instructors are instructing the classes. By evaluating the transfer of learning which is the process of applying knowledge, abilities, and tactics to new circumstances or contexts (Turn Learning Into Action, 2014).
Changes `
I would update or modify a few sections of the University's training evaluation now that I
have determined the levels of evaluation. Upon reviewing the assessment questions, I've discovered that they should be more detailed as they are now quite vague. It is divided into categories on the course subject, academic performance, if the material is relevant to your career success, and the instructor's effectiveness in the classroom. The student responds with a generic response, yet they are able to reply on certain questions but not all of them. The inquiries ought to be focused on the student's field of study. I would rephrase the question's original formulation.
The current format of the question is, "The course activities have practical application to my degree and/or career." The only response options available to the student are agree or disagree. Instead of only offering them a choice, I would give them the chance to explain by asking, "Did you find that course activities had relevance for this class, why or why not?" I would ask every question in this way because it would provide the university a precise indication of how effectively each course is serving the needs of the students. These open-ended questions promote
critical thinking and creativity by allowing people to freely express their views (Mcnamara, 2018). Leaving open-ended questions till the end of the survey is usually a good approach in order to catch any information that closed-ended questions may have missed (Mcnamara, 2018). In addition, they could delve deeper and see whether any adjustments are required.

A recent report on executive awareness of and involvement in corporate pandemic preparedness by Michael Evangelides, principal at Deloitte Consulting LLP, most top executives and boards of directors are not engaged in the influenza pandemic planning process and won't give it equal billing to other potential disruptions until at least one of the following occurs: • Media attention to pandemic influenza increases. • Legislation or regulation emerges, requiring a high level of preparedness. • Shareholders and investors demand a high level of preparedness. • The financial impact of a pandemic on the corporation becomes evident. Obviously, planners can do little to nudge along the first three prerequisites. But, fortunately, the fourth is in their sphere of influence.

Directions: Given the excerpt from a research conducted by Herrero (2018), analyze the research instrument used based on the
following criteria.
NUMERACY INVENTORY DEVICE (NID): BASIS FOR CRAFTING STRATEGIC INTERVENTION MATERIALS (SIM) IN MATHEMATICS
Rico A. Herrero
Research Instrument
In order for the researcher to gather necessary data, the researcher devised a tool called the Numeracy Inventory Device (NID) which measured the students'
numeracy skills. This was composed of 80 items test which underwent validation by the mathematics experts such as master teachers, head teachers, etc. Moreover, in
order to establish not only the validity of the device but also the reliability, sophisticated item analysis was also conducted. Out of these 80 items, 50 good questions were
retained and became part of the device. The questions covered the following areas: Whole Numbers, Signed Numbers, Fractions, Decimals, and Percentages.
After establishing the device's validity and reliability, the…

Case Study 2: Forecasting Lost Sales
The Carlson Department Store suffered heavy damage when a hurricane struck on August 31, 2013. The store was closed for four months (Sept – Dec 2013) and Carlson is now involved in a dispute with its insurance company concerning the amount of lost sales during the time the store was closed. Two key issues must be resolved:
The amount of sales Carlson would have made if the hurricane had not struck; and
Whether Carlson is entitled to any compensation for excess sales from increased business activity after the storm
More than $8 billion in federal disaster relief and insurance money came into the county, resulting in increased sales at department stores and numerous other businesses.
The table below shows the sales data for the 48 months preceding the storm. The following table reports total sales for the 48 months preceding the storm for all department stores in the county, as well…

On February 12 Peg Jones, vice president for operations and maintenance, called into Stephen’s office and asked to study the issue. Specially, Stephen wanted to know whether the average fleet age was correlated to direct airframe maintenance costs, and whether there was a relationship between average fleet age and direct engine maintenance costs. Peg was to report back by February 26 with the answer, along with quantitative and graphical descriptions of the relationship. Peg’s first step was to have her staff construct the average age of Northern and Southeast B727-300 fleets, by quarter, since the introduction of that aircraft to service by each airline in late 1993 and 1994. The average age of each fleet was calculated by first multiplying the total number of calendar days each aircraft had been in service at the pertinent point in time by the average daily utilization of the respective fleet to total fleet hours flown. The total fleet hours was then dividend by the number of…
