Public relations research is expected to answer the research questions set. To do so, the researcher is required to make decisions on the standards that should be followed. According to Durrheim (2006:37), the researcher should know why the research is being undertaken, what informs the research, where the research occurs and finally the techniques are that are used to collect and analyse the data. Identify and explain the research design standards that should guide our decision-making when undertaking a research process
Quasi-experimental designs are used particularly in circumstances where it is not possible to implement classical experimental designs. In this design, researchers have no control over the independent variable. Using your own understanding, explain how the types of quasi-experimental designs differ in terms of their characteristics
Knowledge of phonics plays a critical role in the teaching and learning of literacy (i.e. reading and writing in this case) in the Foundation phase in particular. Using your own words, how would you distinguish between synthetic phonics and analytic phonics?
As an English teacher how would you draw on their wealth of knowledge and experiences to support their learning of English in an effective and engaging manner? In a paragraph of not more than eight sentences, discuss THREE strategies you would use. Make sure that your ideas are presented in a logical, clear language with appropriate cohesive devices that produce a coherent text
Write a program that accepts the amount of money deposited in a bank account, the annual interest rate and the target amount (The amount of money the account holder wants to have in the account after a period of time) and then calculates the number of years it will take for the money to accumulate to the targeted amount. NB: 1) The interest being earned is Compound Interest. 2) Don’t use the formula for calculating compound interest. For example if the money deposited is 10000 and the target amount is 20000 and the account earns an interest rate (compound) of 10% pa, then the output should be: - It will take 8 years for your money to reach your target. By the end of this period, the amount in your account will be 21435.89
Do gender, status difference and age affect how you use the different forms of address, greetings, and/or gestures?
Let P (x) = 2x^4+15x^3+31x^2+20x+4
(a) Determine whether (x −1) is a factor of P (x). (2)
(b) Find all the possible rational zeros of P (x) by using the Rational Zeros Theorem. (2)
(c) Solve P (x) = 0. (4)
Use Descartes’ Rule of Signs to determine the possible number of positive, negative and
imaginary zeros of P (x).
(i) P (x) = 2x^3+x^2-3x+6.
how will the PLCs (professional learning and community) improve the financial accountability and governance in schools ?
Design & Implement a C- program that can handle salesmen records of ABC Company. Each salesman has unique 4-digit id #, name, salary, monthly sale & commission (commission is computed depending on value of monthly sale). Net income of a salesman is salary plus commission. Make maximum use of user defined Functions. Conditions for calculating commission are as follows: ➢ Commission is 20% of monthly sale, if sale is equal to or greater than 15,000. ➢ Commission is 15% of monthly sale, if sale is equal to or greater than 10,000 and less than 15,000. ➢ Commission is 10% of monthly sale, if sale is equal to or greater than 8,000 and less than 10,000. ➢ Commission is 5% of monthly sale, if sale is equal to or greater than 5,000 and less than 8,000. ➢ No Commission, if sale is less than 5,000
