I attended a lecture at UEL where Sue Ritchie presented an introduction to Citizenship. From this lecture Sue Ritchie gave information about the Crick report (1998) and discussed social diversity, democracy, and she made reference to Thompson (1996) Peoples skills, Macmillan: p.70. The two quotes highlighted from Thompson were “When we interact with other people, we do not start from a natural standpoint. We bring with us a whole range of values, beliefs and assumptions.” and “So how can we all live together in the same world if we differ so much?”

Good morning/afternoon students. Let me first congratulate you for being chosen for this semesters acting course here at Nida. I’m Tayla, your tutor for the semester. My position here today, is to clarify the confusion you have may have about the aspects of the acting career. Many of you may think the fame comes as a part of being an actor. After many years of working in this industry, I can tell you with emphasis fame is truly only a media creation. ‘The state of being widely known or recognized’ (TheFreeDictionary.com, 2014) justifies faultlessly what fame is. Think to yourself for a second, how would we know about any of the celebrities without the media? Accept if we know them in person of course. Without the media, there would be no fame and the publicity fame brings, does not always bring the best out in people. Fame is solely a media creation.

I started over a few weeks barely going to school, doing work, anything really. Gaboury would email me, call me, text me constantly to check on me but I never answered, I never knew what to say. One day though, about a month after Draven’s death I found myself in school and getting called into my guidance counselor 's office, when I went in my guidance counselor, social worker and gaboury sat in a row together and I sat across from them. Without anybody speak Gaboury looked at me and smiled a light goofy smile like he always had when I had come into his classroom in eleventh grade and sat at his
Innovation has a significant impact on the organization giving it a competitive advantage, and today organizations must be innovative to be successful and competitive in the marketplace. Ideas of innovation not only impact organizational strategy, the process, service, and products offered to the consumers.

In the article, How to Manage Open Innovation: Organizational Approach, Liliana(2013) explains that “Unlike the closed model, which assumes in-house Research and Development (R&D) and targets traditional markets, open innovation puts the emphasis on outside relationships to acquire and/or develop inventions.”(Liliana, 2013, pg.7). Open innovation is a concept that was developed by Henry Chesbrough because he felt “frustrated that there weren’t more useful ideas and advice from academia.”(Chesbrough, 2011).
