Environmental Factors
When a person is trying to place his or her seating, you have to acknowledge the four task situations (conversation, cooperation, coaction, and competition). When conversing with another person, you are most likely to sit directly across from each other. An example of conversation is when my roommate and I go eat. We do not sit side by side, unless somebody else is coming to eat with us. The opposite sitting arrangement to conversation is cooperation. During cooperation you are most likely to sit side by side because you are helping and showing each other useful information. Here on campus in the library, student union, lobbies of different departments were you could see cooperation at its best. I will use myself as an example because when I was a freshman and sophomore here at Appalachian State I had to go to study hall and get a tutor because of football. When I was getting tutored my tutor would not sit across the table from me she would sit beside of me because it felt like I was getting more out of the conversation.
However, the Intimacy Level between two people helps depend on were you sit. If a couple is very intimate then they are likely to sit side by side. But if a couple is not intimate but friends they will sit across from one another. When my girlfriend and I go out on a date we will sit across from each other. But, when I am at work I see older couples in there forties, sitting next to each other. But a place were Intimacy is not involved is the clubs, because alcohol is involved. Alcohol can increase the intimacy level between two not intimate people.
Another reason that makes people decisions are their seating arrangement is Personal and Personality differences. One example that I have seen is leadership. Leadership is seen everyday in our society. The leadership shows who is in charge of the situation at hand. You will see leadership in conferences, groups, meetings, classrooms when decision is involved, and at home at the dinner table. Also another example that I have is people who are extroverts. Extroverts tend to be outgoing, loud, talkable people. I am one of those people. So I see Extroversion everyday, an example is, “I went to pick up my car from south parking lot. I saw this girl that was so “fine”.
In the movie the Wizard was exposed as a fraud and a fake, yet he still convinced the group that he could give them what they needed. The imposter gave the Scarecrow a diploma, the Lion a medal of honor, and the Tin Man a ticking heart-shaped watch. The Wizard of OZ granted their wishes convincing

Over the years, the story has countless reinventions like the film Wizard of Oz 1939 and Oz the great and Powerful 2013. The Wicked Witch of the West is represented differently in books and films, established how the writers and actor in the Movie depicted her.

...nd if possible barriers such as tables should be avoided (Cole, 2005). In group intervention the placement of chairs is very important in the facilitating of communication. A circle shape should be formed in order to allow all parties to communicate; this is to avoid the OT being the centre of all communication (Cole, 2005).

The purpose of the visiting the wizard is that he is the only one able to grant the Scarecrow a brain, the Tin man a heart,
Interestingly something as simple as seating or the placement of classroom material can affect the management of the classroom (Snowman & McCown, 2013). This brings up the third question- How are the physical features of the classroom positioned? Areas that will be used by multiple students at a time are considered high-traffic areas. These areas should be spacious enough to keep students from being bunched in a small area. High-traffic areas include the teacher’s desk and pencil sharpener (Snowman & McCown, 2013). Also, visibility should be optimal. The teachers should be able to clearly see the students and the students should be able to see any and all instructional presentations and displays presented. (Snowman & McCown, 2013). This will ensure that the teacher is able to intervene on any behavior that is not acceptable and will ensure that the students are able to see all important material needed for their learning. To ensure the class and instruction time runs smoothly, teaching material and student supplies should be available when needed and accessible (Snowman & McCown, 2013). Lastly, as Snowman and McCown (2013) advise, “the arrangement of the seating, materials, and equipment should be consistent with the kinds of instructional activities the teacher favors” (p.
The story consists of a poor, but yet joyful girl named Dorothy; who lives in Kansas. One day a cyclone picks her home up and drops it in a distant land filled with beautiful landscapes and magic. Dorothy is intrigued but wants to return home. On her journey to meet the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy makes friends; the brainless Scarecrow, heartless Tin Woodman, and a courage lacking Lion. They go throw a number of turbulences to obtain their wishes. Dorothy finally learns through the good witch that all along she had her ticket home on her feet. She taps her feet and is in Kansas with her Aunt Em and Uncle (Baum, 2013).
The article briefly goes over The Wizard of Oz, both the film and the book, and discusses how they fit into Campbell’s hero’s journey. Emerson summarizes Campbell’s idea of the hero’s journey for the reader, then splits Dorothy’s journey into three phases. The first phase is her travels on the yellow brick road where in the film she meets the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion, and in the book Dorothy and her companions overcome natural obstacles. The second phase begins when they meet the Wizard of Oz in the Emerald City, who sets them on a trial before they can receive their respective gifts. The pinnacle of this trial is the face off with the Wicked Witch of the West, where she is defeated when Dorothy throws a bucket of water on her
He suggests a compacted room design that creates horizontal aisles instead of horizontal ones. According to Jones, "The purpose of room arrangement is to facilitate mobility and proximity." He says it is important to have interior loops in your classroom furniture arrangement to allow the easiest access to all students. He also said to not have small narrow walkways, but instead wide boulevards.
Student tables: I want all the chairs facing the smart board so that all the students in my classroom will be able to see the board effectively. The two desk on the ends will be for the student who are having trouble sitting so close to someone else even if they're just being a little disruptive in the classroom.That give that student space of their own, but also makes it to where they're not far from everyone else. If a student is still struggling sitting close by I can move them to a round table or at the kidney table. This goes for the students who have behavioral problems.
The level of genetic influences on a person’s behavior is called the heritability of the behavior. Based on previous research intelligence as measured by IQ scores is thought to be attributed mostly to genetic influences. However it has been suggested by several researchers that genetic influences are moderated by the environment a person grows up in. There have been several studies that have explored the effects of environmental effects on heritability. However these studies have been methodologically limited because they did not have a large enough sample size or they did not measure the zygosity of the twins they use. Other studies measured change in heritability across different birth cohorts. However these studies might have been influenced by the different circumstances that might have been present during the different time periods these people lived in.
Discuss the role of heredity and environment in shaping human behavior. Substantiate your arguments with at least two research studies from peer-reviewed journals.
Climate Change can result from both natural events and human activities. Some examples of natural causes of climate change are volcanic eruptions, ocean currents, solar variations, and earth’s orbital changes. Some examples of human activities are fossil fuels, warming of temperature due to industrialization, and deforestation of tropical rainforests. Factors of climate change can change and vary naturally over time. The issue of the fast increase in earth’s temperature over the past years is one of global importance and disputed origin. All these justifications are for the change in the earth’s temperature are valid, however, there is a reason to believe that human activity and carbon dioxide emissions are a great part of the cause for the
