As said in the assignment I have to select a topic which is taken with two peered reviewed journal articles to do a comparative analysis. The subject I choose my articles are about gender and race in criminality. The two articles I selected were “Crime, Cops and Context” written by Andres F. Rengifo, Morgan Pater and Brenda J. Velazquez. The reason I choose the article is it seemed interested and informative. The second article is “Intersectionality of Race, Ethnicity, Gender and Age on Criminal Punishment” written by Darrell Steffensmeier, Noah Painter-Davis and Jeffery Ulmer. The reason I choose the article is it looked similar to the first article, so I thougt it would be good to do a review on similar subjects.

In it I will discuss my personal approach to study and the study skills I need to use on the programme. The essay will highlight the skills I feel are my current strengths and draw attention to the areas I need to develop.

The occupation that I have selected via the O*Net Interest Profiler is nuclear engineering. I obtained this career by plugging in the top three letters I scored highest on in the personality mosaic, which were Investigative, Conventional and Realistic, in that order. I agreed with the results of the personality mosaic, I presumed that the three terms and their descriptions were predominantly truthful to how I perceived myself. Secondarily, I reasoned that a decent amount of the careers recommended to me through the O*Net Interest Profiler were occupations that I had an interest in, therefore I believe the online profiler did a quality job of helping me determine a career.

After reading article 9, A Theory of Problem-Solving behavior, something I realized I had not thought about before was the difference between coping with the problem or situation instead of finding a way to solve it. The article explains that then you are coping with something you use do things such as adjusting, avoiding, accepting, denying or escaping. When you solve a problem you either change or eliminate what is creating the issue. It is also stated there is a higher risk of failure when using the problem-solving strategy rather than the coping strategy. I agree with this point based off passed experiences.

During growth and development children are expected to meet certain milestones at specific ages. No two children are exactly alike. Children grow and develop at their own pace. However, parents or primary care providers may notice slow or absent growth and development in a child. Developmental screenings take place initially. When abnormal growth and development are noted; a developmental assessment is warranted. The developmental assessment will aid in recognition of the development and growth concern. Also, prevent any further delays and enabling prompt and essential interventions to take place; to enhance growth and development. The developmental assessment will examine cognitive, language, motor, and social-emotional skills (Burns, Dunn, Brady, Starr, & Blosser, 2013).

My work history has largely been in a variety of roles dealing with operations functions and processes. I have experience working in a back office capacity as well as implementing projects and documenting operation procedures. In many instances, I performed ad hoc data reporting and analysis tasks for management when business intelligence applications were available to me. My varied background is due in large part to my analytical and communication skills. I believe this skill set is aligned with the identified responsibilities and I would be able to establish myself in this position fairly seamlessly.

Imagine Eduardo, an 18 year old high school graduate with a 3.7 GPA that has an impressive resume. He got into all the colleges he applied to and wants to get a summer job. He emails his resumes to a few companies and gets interviews for each of them, but he never gets hired. Why not? There is a huge gap in his education and he doesn't even know it. He lacks soft-skills like leadership and communication skills.

The three skills that make up Katz’s model are technical, human, and conceptual skills. Technical skills involve knowledge and proficiency in a specific type of work or activity. Human skills are about knowledge related to working with people. They provide a leader with the ability to work effectively with followers, peers, and superiors when trying to accomplish organizational goals. Conceptual skills are the ability to work with ideas and concepts (Northouse, p. 46). One of the essential roles Ho Chi Minh played in the growth of nationalism and communism can be seen whilst he resided in China. Here he gave socialist lectures to youth revolutionaries. By doing this Ho Chi Minh began positioning the pieces of his chessboard of communism for Vietnam by conveying his message to young and passionate Vietnamese citizens (Whitman, 1969). When referring to human skills, Ho Chi Minh loved and respected the people and considered them the masters and origin of the nation. Compassion and caring enabled him to nurture the people being led. The final of the three skills is conceptional skills. Ho Chi Minh had nothing but a warm heart for Vietnamese people and a whole life for the peace and independence of the country (Ho Chi Minh - The inspiring leader of Vietnamese, 2015).

50 years ago, college students devoted a great amount of time to studying- on average 24 hours a week. Now, the average has dwindled dramatically to a measly 15 hours per week. Why is this? In recent years, high schools have been seeing a decline in young peoples’ performances as school itself becomes faster paced and increasingly scrupulous. As many young people are losing study time due to activities like jobs and extracurriculars, grades are going down. If teens in high school cannot keep up with the pace of classes, how will one be able to keep up with the brisk strides of college? Or even further on in the workplace? Schools should institute mandatory study skills classes in junior high school or middle school to counter the lack of study skills in American youth in order to better support life skills in high school and beyond.
