Assessing your skills
Welcome to Assessing Your Skills one of the series of Futures workbooks, which help students choose and prepare for their careers. Like the other workbooks in the series you can dip in and out doing the exercises which are most relevant to you. You might want to include the exercises or the output in your personal development plan or e-portfolio.
The aim of this workbook is to help you to clarify or identify your skills as a first step toward choosing work that really suits you. It can also he
Professor David Miller inaugural lecture: Disembedded elites?
In his inaugural lecture, titled 'Disembedded elites? Policy communications and the transformation of elite networks', Professor David Miller reviewed the main writing on 'power elites' in the tradition of power structure research and asked what's changed with the advent of neoliberalism?

5.3 Stanzas and verse The poem ‘The literal and the metaphor’, which you read in Section 5.1, was divided into two sections. We call these verses or stanzas, and they are the poetic equivalent of paragraphs, but with more shape, weight and focus than the prose equivalent. Stanzas are like islands encircled by shores. Or,
Economic Progress and the Primacy of the Individual
Members of an Austrian School of economics forum to which I belong have been discussing the source of economic progress. It began with the usual elements
of capital, technological development, and managerial expertise before getting more philosophical when a member suggested the acceptance of rationality in
all things. I felt this was not a proper answer, because the definition of

Jeff Gold Inaugural Lecture - The Leader's Conundrum or 'You cannot lift yourself up by your own shi
The aim of the lecture will be to do demonstrate the need to challenge continuing traditional images of leaders, often depicted at the apex of things, on top of a hill or at the centre of a complex web of activity. I will argue that those nominated as leaders MUST become aware of what I will call the leader's conundrum and complement their inspiration with 99 x perspiration. To appreciate this call, attendees to the lecture as respectfully asked to do the following just before the lecture:

ANSO 300-03, Cultural Motifs, Urban and Community Health, Fall 2007
This syllabus was submitted to the Rhodes College Office of Academic Affairs by the course instructor.,Welcome to the Anthro/Soc 300.3 Urban and Community Health wiki. This course will examine U.S. urban and community health with a particular focus on minority populations. We will also examine current public health issues such as how health is distributed during U.S. disaster relief and social problems that impact community health like gun violence or obesity. The format of the assignments will
Reading Strawson Peter Strawson's paper, ‘Freedom and resentment’ did much to change the direction of the debate surrounding determinism. Strawson, as you will see, divides his paper into numbered sections. This is because he has a reasonably small number of relatively discrete points to make, and the sections help the reader to see where the discussion begins and ends. This is not the only way of doing this; you might prefer to use explicit signposting within the text; for example, using phrases such as:
Novel associated PVA/PVP hydrogels for nucleus pulposus replacement
Degenerative disc disease in the lumbar spine is marked by a dehydration of theintervertebral disc and loss of biomechanical function of the spinal unit. Since thecurrent surgical procedures are ineffective in restoring natural biomechanical functionback to the diseased disc, researchers have looked to replace the intervertebral disc.These designs are flawed in that they either donâ t restore natural movement back to thespinal unit, require surgeries that are highly invasive, or they further p
Fault-tolerant distributed shared memory on a broadcast-based interconnection architecture
This thesis focuses on the issue of reliability and fault tolerance in Distributed Shared Memory Multiprocessors, and on the performance impact of implementing fault tolerance protocols that allow for Backward Error Recovery through the use of synchronized checkpointing. High Performance Parallel computing systems that implement Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) require interconnection networks capable of providing low latency and high bandwidth and efficient support for multicast and synchronizat
Numerical simulation of chlorine disinfection processes in non-ideal reactors
The efficacy of disinfection processes in water purification systems is governed by several key factors including reactor hydraulics, disinfectant chemistry and microbial inactivation kinetics. The objective of this work was to develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model to predict flow structure, mass transport, chlorine decay and microbial inactivation in a continuous flow reactor. The significance of this dissertation is that comprehensive 3D numerical model was developed to address al
Lawrence Bailey - Market Research Valedictory Lecture
Colleagues from both academia and business were present on 27 January 2011 for Lawrence Bailey's guest lecture on Market Segmentation, Qualitative Research and Conversations Across the Garden Wall.
The garden wall of the lecture's title was Lawrence's metaphor for the potential divide between the two sectors.
The lecture reflected Lawrence's career-long wish to get qualitative researchers in the commercial world to talk to their counterparts in the academic world, and vice versa. He discusse

Job interviews
Job Interviews is one of several Futures workbooks which help students choose and prepare for their careers. Like the other workbooks in the series you can dip in and out doing the exercises which are most relevant to you. You might want to include the exercises or the output in your personal development plan or e-portfolio. Interviews are still the most commonly used method for assessing a person’s suitability for a job. In the UK 99 per cent of employers use selection interviews to recruit
