Development Powerpoint

Transcript: KINDERGARTEN Piaget: In kindergarten we did a lot of adding using blocks or other objects. This shows the preoperational stage in action. The intelligence is demonstrated through symbols (the blocks representing the numbers). FIRST GRADE Gilligan: We used to play lava monster on the playground. I would never want to be the monster and usually more boys ended up wanting to be the monster than girls. This shows Gilligan's belief that girls grow up with a sense of nurturing. Girls normally do not want to cause pain to others which is why they would rather be chased and not be the monster. SECOND GRADE Erikson: In second grade my cousin and I snuck away at a block party in order to ride a hayride that our parents wouldn't let us do. I remember after sneaking away from the block party feeling some remorse for doing something that I wasn't supposed to do but the feeling of adventure overpowered that. THIRD GRADE Mead: In third grade our teacher made our classroom live by the golden rule. This is the basis of Mead's theory. This rule was drilled into be back in third grade and still sits with me and most of my friends to this day. FOURTH GRADE Cooley: Fourth grade was the first year that I really remember caring what other people thought of me. I began to wonder how other people viewed me and started to dress and act accordingly. It was the first year I started to worry about fitting in. FIFTH GRADE Piaget: In fifth grade we started using some algebra type math and also began reading critically which shows that by then most of us had reached the Concrete thinking phase. We were able to begin thinking bastractly to solve problems. SIXTH GRADE Kohlberg: This was the year that our class took a trip to Nature's Classroom. It was the first time that I had been away from my parents for an extended period of time. There were new rules and we had more rights and freedom then ever before. It taught us how to adjust to a completley new lifestyle for a few days. SEVENTH GRADE Erikson: Seventh grade was a new experiance for everyone. We were meshed together with a bunch of strangers that we didn't know. We had to meet new people and re - organize our social groups. This is a perfect example of Erikson's fifth step, identity vs. role confusion. We were all trying to fit in and find groups that made us feel like we belonged. I began to do things for myself and what others around me thought rather than my parents. EIGHTH GRADE Cooley: Yet, again I began to worry how others saw me. I began to dress in all brand named clothes and constantly thought about how other people viewed me. I got paranoid worrying about what other people thought and began to act different and change myself in order to fit in, hoping that people saw me in a good light. NINTH GRADE Piaget: In ninth grade all learning in school took the path of Formal thinking. We began to pick apart literature and find the deeper meanings in everything that we did. I was at the point where I began to be able to think like this and act accordingly. TENTH GRADE Gilligan: I began to pick relationships carefully in order to avoid being hurt. I took great care in my friendships and when something went wrong, I would be crushed. This again shows how Gilligan that girls were brought up with a natural nurturing and caring ability. ELEVENTH GRADE Erikson: This year I had a serious boyfriend that I had been going out with for over a year. This goes along with Erikson's idea on intimacy vs. isolation. I put all of my time into my boyfriend and had began to make a long term relationship out of it. I learned how to give my time to someone and share my feelings with someone. SENIOR YEAR Erikson This year I broke up with my boyfriend and I went back to identity vs. role confusion. I had to meet new friends and reconnect with my old ones in order to help get rid of that lonely feeling that I was experiancing. It was confusing and hard to do at first but everything turned out okay.

Economic Development

Transcript: Sound Economic Management Sound economic Management is what any good government needs, therefore if we were to look into the future, as far as the 2022 World Cup, we need to be reassured that the hosts had a secure, stable and reliable future for their economy. Qatar has the vision for its future in 2030, and they have bid and won the hosting opportunity for the 2022 World Cup. They state that, “Reasonable and sustained rates of economic growth that secure a high standard of living for this generation and for future generations.Financial and economic stability characterized by low inflation rates, sound financial policy and a secure and efficient financial system,” If they were to follow these rules, then in the future for 2030, Qatar would be looking at a stable, developed and well known country. Not only does its Natural Gases reserves give it a head start in the financial race with other countries, but its plan for the future, with keeping a low and sensible inflation rate, makes it a country more in power, and less likely to be affected with any ‘credit crunch’. Although, the changes in the goal would have to take into account that a major part of their time would be taken up by focusing on the 2022 preparations, for example, parts of the goal, such as constant low inflation rates could not be constantly monitered as time and money would need to be put into the preparations. Responsible Exploitation of Oil and Gas Suitable Economic Diversification How do you think Qatar would have altered its Qatar 2030 plan to take into consideration the holding of the World Cup in 2022? After reading the goals for 2030, I find that in order to hold and accommodate the 2022 World Cup, some things in the goals would have to be altered. Time and money goes into the planning of events, and as the Bid for this was so important to Qatar and its people, it would be no surprise that they would want it to be a great success. Therefore, plans and goals for 2030 would be cut down, altered or completely removed, but the ideal situation would be to either alter or cut down the demands for 2030. For example, things like that did not affect the people immediately could be postponed, and the goals concerning the environment (not only Qatar’s goal but a step for the World) could be the focus for the 2030 goal completions. Many things concern Qatar and it’s goals for the future, but a lot must be taken into account before planning out the order of completion, therefore due to the fact the World Cup is closer in arrival than 2030, it would be thought that the alterations made would be for the benefit of the 2022 games. Arshia Jain Humanities 8C Economic Development With Qatar having such high reserves with Oil and Gas, it puts them in a state of financial security. In the future, when it comes around to actually hosting the World Cup, Qatar, with its fast growing infrastructure and economic visions, would we well organized and sorted. They not only visualize a fast growing economy, country etc, but a clean environment. The basics are to have a Gas Industry that provides a major source of clean energy for Qatar and the World, plus; the long term maintenance of strategic reserves of oil and gas to meet the needs of national security and sustainable development. With all the resources Qatar has at the moment and the fact, that they have not set out completely unreachable goals, I think that by 2030 and the 2022 World Cup, Qatar would not only be completing their goals but setting new ones. Most personal goals can take up ones time, but when dealing with the future goals of a whole country, you try your best to complete them, but a lot of time is taken up. Looking at the ‘Suitable Economic Diversification’ section of the Economic Development Qatar for 2030, I find that it would not only be tricky to complete in the given time but it might also collide with the completion of other goals. I find that, ‘A knowledge-based economy characterized by innovation; entrepreneurship; excellence in education; a world-class infrastructural backbone; the efficient delivery of public services; and transparent and accountable government’, is not only asking to much of its people in a short amount of time, but it is a very broad goal. With the 2022 World Cup coming up, and the preparations for the stadiums, accommodations, housing, tourist attractions etc, Qatar and its government would have a lot to think about, and that by the time 2030 arrives, Qatar would be well on its way to complete this goal, but not finished. Key Points: •This is all about having a secure and sustained rate of economic growth, which will be maintained for the future and the future generations. •A stimulating business climate capable of attracting foreign funds and technologies and of encouraging national investments •Open and flexible economic structures capable of competing in a changing world •Coordination with Gulf Cooperation Council states and with Arab and regional economic

Economic Development

Transcript: Governments can reduce protection, lower minimum wages and to attract TNC's and FDI's. This can sometimes lead to labour exploitation, but it is the government's responsibility to make sure that this doesn't happen. Although this still does because some governments are subject to corruption *cough* Indonesia. They can also use monetary policy. By increasing the interest rates, although this might lower spending, this will increase foreign savings, investments and the exchange rate. An economy can also invest into capital, technology and trading blocs to increase trade. Economies can also invest in increasing the amount of skilled labour in their economy. Economic Development Economies wish to develop because it will lead to an increasing unemployment, GNI and gradually an increase in the countries standard of living. Short Term Solutions Reasons Why Developing countries have attemped to develop by creating trading blocs and trade agreements to break down trade barriers. The Uruguay Round was held and the purpose of this was that countries would lower their trade barriers on agriculture. By doing this, poorer and more agricultural based economies would have a comparative advantage compared to agriculuture from economies such as the US and the EU. The countries that took part in this agreement agreed to reduce barriers but, much to the fury of the developing and undeveloped economies, the reality was they didn't. Attempts to develop and problems encountered A country can develop it's economy short term by altering it's fiscal budget. By increasing government spending an economy can see an increase in employment, increase GDI, etc. Long Term Solutions

Economic Development

Transcript: What makes up the Human Development Index? In the United States there are 4 out of 100,000 people murdered intentionally every year. This might not seem like a lot but if you multiply it by the amount of people living in the United States to the amount of people involved in a homicide (12 556 people killed per year in the United States). Even so, the United States is a very safe place to live. The places where the murders happen are usually ghettos and the poorer places, for example Harlem. Why are some countries are developed? The United States is an example of a MEDC country. They have a strong economy and a lot of power. Their army also helps show how developed the United States are. America also has put a lot of money into education so it easy to get good education. Most people are living a decent life with food and clean water, shelter, easy access to facilities and education and a very high GDP (in 2012 it was 15.68 trillion.) 2. Describe why some countries are classified as developed and others are not. http://hdrstats.undp.org/en/indicators/default.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index http://norte.stgeorge.com.ar/secondary/School%20Closure/Carina%20Zabaleta/EGB%209%C2%BA/development_pathway.pdf http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/ Economic Development Countries with medium HDIs The United Nations want to make sure that all children get a solid base of primary education which can help them progress farther towards a better life. If everyone gets a decent education, then they can all help build towards a more equal world because everyone has a fair, equal chance at having a good life. It is a lot harder to get a well paying job if you have never been to school before so once you learn basic things like how to read, write and use a computer, life will become easier from there on. Haiti is a example of a LLEDC. One reason that it is a LLEDC is that in 2010 that did lots of damage to the infrastructure of Haiti. Ever since the earthquake, there was a deadly strain of cholera that, to this year, kills over 1000 Haitians a year. Also, Haiti doesn't have that much money already, especially not to give enough for everyone in Haiti. Haiti is not a very safe place to be right now because there have been many uprisings that have resulted in deaths of the civilians. Their HDI is rated at LOW and is right now 161th is the world The amount of education and healthcare available can be very important for many reasons. One, if there is very little healthcare available to the public, there is a larger, younger death rate than if there was easy access to health care. Also, if there is very little education, the people cannot inform themselves about dangers that can put their life at risk such as bacteria and viruses. Education can also help with things like GDP (when the people are more educated, they can produce more goods and services, therfore enlarging their GDP) and lower the unemployment rate. Why are some countries not developed? 2.9% of Thailand's GDP is spent on public healthcare. This is not much compared to some other countries with higher HDIs such as Norway (which spends 8% of its GDP on public healthcare). If people of a certain country don't have easy access to health care, their death rate will go up because people have no place to go when they're injured or sick. Still, Thailand puts in enough money to make their doctors well trained, therefore going to the doctor (if you can) will, most likely, help you with your problem. Germany (Carbon dioxide emissions per capita, tons) Questions 4 - 6 The top 5 countries with the highest HDIs* were Norway ( ), Australia ( ), United States ( ), Netherlands ( ) and Germany ( ). *In 2012 Why do we have the Human Development Index? 4. What is the Human Development Index? Explain. All of these factors correspond with eatch other to make up the Human Development Indicator. Health Life expectancy at birth Education Mean years of schooling Expected years of schooling Living Standards Gross national income per capita In blue are the 4 indicators and in red are the 3 dimensions that make up a HDI. Brazil is an example of an LEDC* for many reasons. For example, the government spends most of its money on the big cities, not the small, rural towns so they are extremely poor. This shows that there is a large, growing poverty gap. There is also high amount of money put into to healthcare and education but it is not available to everyone. *Brazil isn't fully classified as a LEDC because it is also a BEE (Big Emerging Economy). 7. Analyze the effects of a change in a HDI indicator for two countries at different stages of development. 8. Pick one of the UN’s Millennium Development Goals. Explain why the UN wish to target that goal and suggest two possible ways that the UN might achieve it. Some reasons some countries are more developed than others are because they have lots of natural resources, natural disasters are not common, they put lots

Transcript: Conservation of fishing cat Introduction of fishing cat Health: Fishing cats are susceptible to carnivore protoparvovirus, a disease known to kill them. This disease significantly damages the kidney, spleen and gastrointestinal tract of the body. The fishing cat is also vulnerable to diseases and medical conditions such as feline hemoplasmas, transitional cell carcinoma and canine distemper virus. Conservation Threats Wild life Shamim khan 2225138043 Bs Zoology 2022-2026 Since 2016, the fishing cat is listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List, as the global population is thought to have declined by around 30% in the years 2010–2015; the destruction of wetlands and killings by local people are major threats to the fishing cat.[1] The destruction of wetlands includes increased pollution or conversion for agricultural use and human settlements. The conversion of mangrove forests to commercial aquaculture ponds is a major threat in Andhra Pradesh, and in some places fishing cats are killed. Over-exploitation of local fish stocks and retaliatory killing by local people are also significant threats. The fishing cat is included on CITES Appendix II and protected by national legislation over most of its range. Hunting is prohibited in Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. Hunting regulations apply in Laos. In Bhutan, Malaysia, and Vietnam, it is not protected outside protected areas, and no information is known about its legal protections in Cambodia. It is the state animal of the Indian state of West Bengal. Its survival depends on protection of wetlands, prevention of indiscriminate trapping, snaring and poisoning. fishing cat The fishing cat (Prionailurus viverrinus) is a medium-sized wild cat of South and Southeast Asia. It has a deep yellowish-grey fur with black lines and spots. Adults have a head-to-body length of 57 to 78 cm (22 to 31 in), with a 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12 in) long tail. Males are larger than females classification of fishing cat: Scientific classification Domain: Eukaryota Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Carnivora Suborder: Feliformia Family: Felidae Subfamily: Felinae Genus: Prionailurus Species: P. viverrinus Characteristics: The fishing cat has a deep yellowish-grey fur with black lines and spots. Two stripes are on the cheeks, and two are above the eyes running to the neck with broken lines on the forehead. It has two rows of spots around the throat. The spots on the shoulder are longitudinal, and those on the sides, limbs and tail are roundish Endangered in Pakistan: In captivity: Fishing cat captive breeding programmes have been established by the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria and the American Association of Zoos and Aquariums. All the fishing cats kept in zoos around the world are listed in the International Studbook of the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums.Zoos in Thailand house around 30 individuals; birth rates are not particularly high.They have been placed in captivity as an "insurance population" due to their vulnerable status in the wild Taxonomy Topic: fishing cat Submitted to: Dr Najiya Al-Arifa Behaviour and ecology Phylogeny: Distribution and habitat: The fishing cat lives among dense vegetation near water and is thought to be primarily nocturnal. It is known to be a proficient long-distance and underwater swimmer. Adult males and females without dependent young are solitary. Females have been reported to range over areas of 4 to 6 km2 (1.5 to 2.3 sq mi), while males range over 16 to 22 km2 (6.2 to 8.5 sq mi). It has been observed resting in thick grassy habitats, often near a water body but sometimes far away from them. Adults have been recorded to vocalise "chuckling" sounds The fishing cat is broadly but discontinuously distributed in South and Southeast Asia. It predominantly inhabits densely vegetated wetlands around slow-moving bodies of water like swamps and marshes.These include low-salinity bodies such as oxbow lakes, and high-salinity ones such as tidal creeks and mangrove forests. Along these bodies of water, it conceals itself within the thick cover of forests, scrublands, reed beds, and grasslands. Most records are from lowland areas. Reproduction and development: Wild fishing cats most likely mate during January and February; most kittens in the wild were observed in March and April. However, fishing cats may mate as late as June. In captivity, the gestation period lasts 63–70 days; females give birth to an average of two to three kittens; the litter size can be as small as one to as large as four.

Transcript: Economic Develpment By: Taylor Webster The human development index measure four factors.Literacy rate for one is the most importnant because people have to be literate to run a country. Another is Infant Mortality Rate it measures how many babies die out of 1,000 births. The other factor is the life expectancy and that shows how long a person is expected to live. Last but not least is the value of the total output of goods G.D.P. H.D.I. Cost European Union Economic The difference of developed and undeveloped countries are thier economic levels. Newly developed countries will have a higher economic level than the one that has been around for a couple hundred years. They will have to come up with what they want to as a goverment either Free-Enterprise, Socialism, and or Communism. New Harbors Gas Nafta Trade Free trade has an amazing impact on the economy. Probably more than the biggest chain restraunt in the country. LIke in the North American Free Trade Agreement N.A.F.T.A. the members are Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Defeinition of globilization is where lets say mcdonalds spreads through out the entire world. Depending on thier economic develpment will show how impotant and how big of an impact will have on thier economy. Because here in America it has somewhat of an impact but not that much. In some McDonalds they serve alcohol and wine. A chokepoint is a international trading station where they have to wait a while to get through. Like the Panamal Canal it takes hours on end just to get through it. The European Union had a big impact of trade with other countries at the beginning of every countries time. Europe is where the trade with other countries actually started. Negatives Develpoment Conclusion Free Trade Agreement Positives I just stated how the Levels of Economic Devolpment have on countries. Like H.D.I. NAFTA and globilization. (cc) image by quoimedia on Flickr Positives & Negatives Free trade
