A-State Department of Sustainability: Software Applications in Business ProjectA-State Department of Sustainability is a fictional organization in which the student works as the Executive Assistant. The project consists of 28 workdays (June 1 - July 8) during which students complete the following tasks: Create and update spreadsheets, databases, charts, graphs, an organizational chart and Gantt Chart; write business letters, memos, emails, a slogan, and press release; design a letterhead, brochure, advertisement, flyer, t-shirt, web site and blog; organize a global conference and conduct problem solving.Instructors may assign tutorials for software as needed. Tutorials are not included in the text. All assignments refer to "spreadsheet, database, word processing, ect." so the instructors/students can use their preferred software brands. Examples of how to format letters, memos, emails, and spreadsheets are included. In the optional research and presentation component students research and present topics related to global and domestic sustainability. This textbook has been designed for lower-level and upper-level courses and can be easily adapted for in-class or online use. From the author: I created this textbook while teaching Software Applications in Business because I could not find a suitable text. I have conducted many iterations of refinement during classroom use. Many years of industry experience together with a 15-year State University of New York tenure have enabled me to design a textbook that will meet the needs of instructors who wish to create a realistic experience which builds a skill set that students can confidently take into the workplace.Students have returned after graduation and told me this was a valuable class and they could immediately utilize the skills they developed during the class in their current jobs.For more information: https: //www.facebook.com/AStateDepartmentOfSustainability

Highlighting one of the Peabody Museum's most important archaeological expeditions--the excavation of the Swarts Ranch Ruin in southwestern New Mexico by Harriet and Burton Cosgrove in the mid-1920s--Steven LeBlanc's book features rare, never-before-published examples of Mimbres painted pottery, considered by many scholars to be the most unique of all the ancient art traditions of North America. Made between A.D. 1000 and 1150, these pottery bowls and jars depict birds, fish, insects, and mammals that the Mimbres encountered in their daily lives, portray mythical beings, and show humans participating in both ritual and everyday activities. LeBlanc traces the origins of the Mimbres people and what became of them, and he explores our present understanding of what the images mean and what scholars have learned about the Mimbres people in the 75 years since the Cosgroves' expedition.

She came from a dying world in search of adventure, love...and blood The year was 1969. Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon. Over 300,000 music lovers flooded into a farm outside Woodstock, NY for the ultimate concert. The Beatles recorded their final album. And crashing to Earth aboard a damaged spacecraft was a refugee from Drakulon, whose inhabitants had drunk from rivers of blood―until they ultimately ran dry. A lone survivor of a dead planet who discovered that the sustenance she needed in order to live flowed not in rivers but in the veins of the humans of this strange new world. A huntress named...Vampirella In From the Stars...a Vampiress, author Steven A. Roman examines the history of the queen of the bad girls whose reign has lasted through five decades of published comic books, novels, and magazines, and turns a critical eye toward her sole motion picture appearance--as well as the 1970s movie version that might have been.

This title was first published in 1993. One of the tests to which we subject our presidents concerns their capacity to lead, their ability to achieve their political and policy goals. This is the test of whether presidents make a difference to their institution, their government, and their country. Professor Steven A. Shull applies this test to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush. His focus is on their civil rights policies, not only in theory and rhetoric, but also in practice. Shull examines this area of public policy as a measure of presidential leadership and substantive policy change. The objective of this volume is to document how two conservative presidents confronted and confounded a policy they opposed: the primacy of the national government in ensuring social and economic equity, particularly among minorities and women.

Surrounded by distractions and worries, Christians often yearn for a deeper, more intimate relationship with God. The question is, how do we get there? How do we move beyond the surface-level conversations and dive deeper into the heart of God? A Short Guide to Prayer is more than just a guide; it's an invitation into the heart of prayer. It's about learning to pray with intention, with honesty, and with a deep longing for connection with God. It's about moving beyond the words and allowing prayer to become a pathway for spiritual growth. Whether you're new to prayer or have been praying for years, this book will challenge your perceptions, inspire your imagination, and equip you with the tools you need to experience a richer, more fulfilling prayer life.
In this book, historian Steven A. Reich examines the economic, political and cultural forces that have beaten and built America’s black workforce since Emancipation. From the abolition of slavery through the Civil Rights Movement and Great Recession, African Americans have faced a unique set of obstacles and prejudices on their way to becoming a productive and indispensable portion of the American workforce. Repeatedly denied access to the opportunities all Americans are to be afforded under the Constitution, African Americans have combined decades of collective action and community mobilization with the trailblazing heroism of a select few to pave their own way to prosperity. This latest installment of the African American History Series challenges the notion that racial prejudices are buried in our nation’s history, and instead provides a narrative connecting the struggles of many generations of African American workers to those felt the present day. Reich provides an unblinking account of what being an African American worker has meant since the 1860s, alluding to ways in which we can and must learn from our past, for the betterment of all workers, however marginalized they may be. A Working People: A History of African American Workers Since Emancipation is as factually astute as it is accessibly written, a tapestry of over 150 years of troubled yet triumphant African American labor history that we still weave today.

Technical Writing Management: A Practical Guide

A practical guide to managing technical writing projects and tech writing departments, covering hiring, evaluation, management, internal and external customer relations, estimating and tracking tech writing projects, running a tech writing business as a solo contractor or as a manager, selling writing services, contracts and work orders, outsourcing, technical training development & delivery, and more.From the Introduction: "There are many books available on the techniques of technical writing, primarily for beginners and practitioners of tech writing. But there are very few books on how to manage the technical writing group in a company or how to manage a technical writing business (whether you're on your own as a freelancer or you have writers working for you). If you are a tech writer who manages other writers, or if you are a non-writer who manages writers, this book is for you.The sections on managing tech writing projects show a methodology specific to technical documentation. If you want to learn general management and project management techniques-and you should-that information already exists. What this book aims for is to provide you as a manager of technical writing with the specifics that you won't easily find elsewhere.Secondarily, this book aims to give new managers, and future managers, a leg up on how to actually run a technical publications group, based on some 20 years of experience in the field.There are different situations in which someone becomes a manager of a technical publications group. Sometimes a writer grows into the role within a company as the department grows, sometimes tech writers are subsumed under some other group - I've seen writers belonging to support, testing, marketing, and infrastructure groups - and the person in charge of technical writing in the company isn't actually a writer and may never have been one.Tech writers who set up their own freelance business have their own specific needs: not only are they the managers, they're also the writers. Finally, owners or managers of tech writing agencies, whether or not they are writers themselves, have business issues specific to a tech writing business to consider."Contents: Chapter 1Introduction* A guide for technical writing managers* Writers who become managers* Managers who are not tech writers* Freelance tech writers* Tech writing agency owners* What's in this bookChapter 2Tech writing for managers* A quick intro to technical writing* Technical editing* Technical writing and product management* Tech writing and debugging* What skills do technical writers need?Chapter 3How to hire tech writers* Establish the requirements* Evaluate the resumes* Interview the writers* Review the samples* Give a test* Tech writers with non-tech writing experienceChapter 4Managing a tech writing group* The role of tech writers in a corporate environment* The documentation team* Define standards* Distribute the work in your team* Involve the writers* Build teams* Monitor the work and communications* Evaluate the writers* Client relations* Communicating with other groups in your organization* Corporate tech writing* Re-use, repurposing, and content management systemsChapter 5Estimating, tracking, and managing tech writing projects* Determine the project scope* Estimates and schedules* Assemble the team* Provide resources and leadership* Working with outsourced writers or outsourced SMEs* Track and report* Deliver the project* Evaluate the projectChapter 6Running a tech writing business* Finding jobs* Marketing yourself as a freelance tech writer* Other marketing avenues* Managing your clientsChapter 7Managing technical training* How to do tech training* Training program components* Training needs analysis* Training development* Training delivery* Training delivery management* Training program communication* Training budget* Set the tone: fun exploration* Training evaluation
