Introduction to Xcode and iOS Fundamentals (Swift)

OVERVIEW

We will begin by exploring the UIKit and how UIs are made using this framework. We’ll explore working with common elements(buttons, labels, textfields, etc.), autolayout, and navigation.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Become familiar with Xcode software and building projects from scratch using Swift and UIKit.
  • Learn how to navigate between different screens.
  • Build UIs that look consistent on different screen size.

Write up 1-2 paragraphs of predictions/hypotheses (part 1) about what garbage you expect to produce over the three days you will be tracking. Include what you believe the major types of garbage will be, the amount will be, and why you are making these predictions.

Garbology Project

For this project, students will be asked to emulate the work of Archaeologist William Rathje who pioneered the study of garbage (Garbology) as a way to understand the lifestyle and consumption patterns of a society. Students will be asked to predict their own garbage production, and then to actually monitor what they throw away for three days. Lastly, students must analyze the similarities and differences of their findings with their predictions and reflect on the utility of Garbology as an archaeological tool.

1) First, read/view the following to learn more about the method of Garbology. You should cite these readings and the textbook in your final write-up.

Interview with Dr. Bill Rathje

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1987-10…

2) Next, write up 1-2 paragraphs of predictions/hypotheses (part 1) about what garbage you expect to produce over the three days you will be tracking. Include what you believe the major types of garbage will be, the amount will be, and why you are making these predictions. Be specific here so you can make direct comparisons with your data after you collect it!

3) Create a simple table/chart which includes a place for you to write down what you are throwing away and its size. Keep this table by your garbage receptacles for the next three days and make sure you record each entry as you throw things away. This is the “hard” data (part 2) and you will need to submit it as part of your project.

a. Consider all the different variables you might include while collecting data (size, material, recyclable, time thrown out, organic, etc.) – these are up to you, but including more will be helpful for the analysis.

4) After the three days, look at your data and compare it to your initial predictions and describe the results (part 3). Sort each entry by garbage type and amount. Did your garbage production match your predictions or was it very different? Make sure to explain your findings: What were the major types of garbage you produced? How much did you end up producing? When were you producing the most/least of each type, and what do you think accounts for your data? You can include visuals if you’d like or describe the findings in this section.

5) Lastly, conclude in 2-3 paragraphs by describing your thoughts on the project and what you believe to be the merits and drawbacks of “Garbology” (part 4). Specifically, what might this analysis tell you about your identity, lifestyle and patterns of consumption? Think like an archaeologist here! And be sure to reference course material (links above and textbook) to support your conclusions.

6) Your final submission should include your predictions (part 1), your table of data (part 2), your findings (part 3), and your conclusion (part 4). The total length of the paper should be about 3-4 pages (double-spaced, one-inch margins, in 12-point Times New Roman font). Mark each section on your final submission.

What changes would you recommend that Meltos Co. make to their current learning and development provision to reduce costs and improve performance?(

OMMAYAR_MGT211_HR

Assignment Workload:

  • This Assignment comprises of a short Case.
  • Assignments are to be submitted by each student individually.

Assignment Purposes/Learning Outcomes:

After completion of Assignment one students will be able to understand the following

  • LO1: To understand the role of human resources within the organization.
  • LO2: To differentiate between the major functions of Human Resources and their interdependency.

Read the case given below and answer the questions:

Meltos Co.is one of the world’s largest bakery businesses with a significant market share in many of the world’s biggest bakery markets, including many emerging markets. It has a long and proud tradition, stretching back more than 150 years, including a long history of developing its employees, which has remained part of its ethos during its progress to becoming a global company.

Despite very positive sales figures over the last 12months, Meltos Co. has prioritized streamlining the business to make it more competitive and has placed a strong emphasis on reducing costs over the next 18 months. Despite being keen to preserve its longstanding reputation as a firm that is committed to developing all its employees, in respect of learning and development, this ‘streamlining’ activity has focused on:

  • ensuring a clear return on investment in training activities
  • changing the way that learning programs are delivered and being more creative in developing approaches to learning.
  • connecting training activities to the strategic needs of the firm.

The most important driver of the assessment of its training provision at Meltos Co.is change. Whilst performing well in the marketplace, senior management continue to express discontent with levels of productivity and employee performance. Moreover, senior management has determined that the company needs to become more flexible and adaptable to respond to change in its market context, for example by an ability to adapt organizational structures to meet new business needs or through the introduction of technological innovation. Therefore, Meltos Co. wants to move towards a system of continuous improvement by creating a culture whereby workers are empowered to implement small incremental changes, rather than have substantial change imposed on them from time to time.

Traditionally, training needs analysis at Meltos Co. has been ‘gap-led’. In other words, training tends to be focused where Meltos Co. identifies a gap in capability – for example, where the introduction of new technology requires worker skill to be updated, company policy is changed or a key worker leaves the firm, requiring training to be provided to their replacement. Typically, this gap-led identification of need is conducted at a local level, with little reference made to the wider national or international workforce.

Currently, the company runs several large training events each year designed to update manufacturing staff on everything from health and safety changes, business strategy and company performance to the adoption of new production technology. This is sometimes coupled with skills training for these workers as and when appropriate.

The head of learning and development, (L&D)responding to a call to cut costs from the HR director, is now of the opinion, however, that such long training programs, often of up to three or four days, are no longer the most cost-effective and efficient means by which to develop the staff. Such training has the dual problem of requiring regular investment and repeat sessions to cover workers on different shifts or at different plants, as well as leading to undesirable downtime of certain aspects of production. In particular, the head of T&D is keen to reduce the reliance on external training providers to design and deliver interventions to different workforce groups, from senior management to shop-floor workers.

Nabeel , the head of learning and development at Meltos Co. recently attended a seminar at a local university on ‘the changing nature of workplace HRM’. He was slightly alarmed to find out that much of the company’s practice was seen as outdated. In particular, he was interested in examining how some more contemporary approaches and techniques in HRM could help the company both reduce costs and better performance through continuous improvement.
