Leadership Theory
The Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) Theory of leadership is different from the other theories and approaches you have studied so far. You have studied approaches and theories that focus on the leader. You have also studied approaches and theories that focus on the context or situation between the leader and the subordinate. LMX Theory sees leadership as a process that focuses on the interactions between leaders and subordinates.
Transformational Leadership is different again, in that it studies leaders who are able to inspire subordinates to accomplish great things. Transformational leaders are seen as leaders who create a clear and shared vision, who empower subordinates to meet high standards, develop trust, and are change agents.
For this Discussion, consider the dyadic relationship in LMX Theory. Consider any similarities between LMX Theory and Transformational Leadership.
Post by Day 3 your explanation of the strengths and weaknesses of the dyadic relationship in LMX Theory. Explain the impact these strengths and weaknesses might have on leadership. Compare LMX Theory to Transformational Leadership. Explain the relationship between the characteristics of LMX Theory and Transformational Leadership. Provide an example from your experience or one from the Learning Resources that supports your response.
Note: Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.
Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings.
Respond by Day 5 to at least one of your colleagues’ postings in one or more of the following ways:
Ask a probing question.

“Penn on Religious Tolerance (1675)”

I can’t found the wenside of the “Penn on Religious Tolerance” so i copy it down from the data base of my textbook.

“Penn on Religious Tolerance (1675)”

“This excerpt is from an essay in which William Penn stated his argument for religious tolerance. A wealthy Quaker, Penn had been jailed several times in England for his unorthodox religious beliefs. After receiving a large tract of land that became modern-day Pennsylvania, he resolved to create a new colony with a founding charter based on religious tolerance.

Certain it is, that there are few Kingdoms in the World more Divided within themselves [by religion than England]….

Your Endeavours for a [religious] Uniformity have been many; Your Acts not a few to Enforce it, but they Consequence, whether you intended it or not, through the Barbarous Practices of those that have had their Execution, hath been the Spoiling of several Thousands of the free inhabitants of this Kingdom of their Unforfeited Rights. Persons have been flung into Jails, Gates and Trunks broke open, Goods destroyed, till a stool hath not been left to sit down on, Flocks of Cattle driven, whole Barns full of Corn seized, Parents left with out Children, Children without their Parents, both without subsistence….

Finding then by Sad Experience, and a long Tract of Time, That the very Remedies applied to cure Dissension increase it; and that the more Vigorously a Uniformity is coercively prosecuted, the Wider Breaches grown, the more Inflamed Persons are, and fixt in their Resolutions to stand by their Principles; which, besides all other Inconveniences to those that give them Trouble, their very Sufferings beget that Compassion in the Multitude…and makes a Preparation for not a few Proselytes….

The Question. What is most Fit, Easie and Safe at this Juncture of Affairs to be done, for Composing, at least Quieting Differences; for Allaying the Heat of Contrary Interests, and making them Subservient to the Interest of the Government, and Consistent with the Prosperity of the Kingdom?

The Answer.

I. An Inviolable and Impartial Maintenance of English Rights.

II. Our Superiours governing themselves upon a Balance, as near as may be, towards the several Religious Interests.

III. A sincere Promotion of General and Practical Religion….

I shall not at this time make it my Business to manifest the Inconsistency that there is between the Christian Religion, and a forced Uniformity; not only because it hath been so often and excellently done by Men of Wit, Learning and Conscience, and that I have elsewhere largely deliver’d my Sense about it; but because Every free and impartial Temper hath of a long time observ’d, that such Barbarous Attempts were so far from being indulged, that they were most severely prohibited by Christ himself….

Instead of Peace, Love and good Neighborhood, behold Animosity and contest! One Neighbour watcheth another…; this divides them, their Families and Acquaintance….

Nor is this Severity only Injurious to the Affairs of England, but the whole Protestant World: For besides that it calls the Sincerity of their Proceedings against the Papists into Question, it furnisheth them with this sort of unanswerable Interrogatory: “The Protestants exclaim against us for Persecutor, and are they now the very men themselves?…”

But there are…objections that some make against what I have urged, not unfit to be consider’d. The first is this: If the Liberty desired be granted, what know we but Dissenters may employ their Meetings to insinuate against the Government, inflame the People into a Dislike of their Superiours, and thereby prepare them for Mischief….Answer….What Dissenter can be so destitute of Reason and Love to common Safety, as to expose himself and Family; by plotting against a Government that is kind to him, and gives him the Liberty he desire….”

Examine the aftermath of the Mexican War and its consequences for Indians, slaves, and free blacks in the newly acquired areas. Think back to Thomas Jefferson’s idea of an Empire of Liberty. Did the newly acquired land from the Mexican War promote Jefferson’s idea, or as with the Louisiana Purchase, was it an empire of liberty for only a few?

Things to consider:
• The length requirement for this essay is a minimum of 2 typed pages and a maximum of 3 pages (double spaced, 12 font, and one inch margins all around) MLA format. I will not read anything under 2.

• You do not need to make formal citations for the papers as you will not be using outside sources. A simple parenthetical citation with the book(s) you used and the page number will be sufficient. Example: (Foner p. 47) (Sources p. 86) Again, Outside sources are prohibited.

• Proofread your paper!

• Avoid first person (“I”) statements.

• No block quotes

• Watch your tenses! If it happened in the past, use the past tense.

We are supposed to write a 3 page paper analyzing the structure of Mozart’s Op. 9 introduction and variations on a theme played by Fernando Sor. We are only analyzing the score for things like structure of the actual music itself. We are not writing about Fernando Sor or about the multiple versions of the piece and the differences between them. The assignment sheet says exactly what we need to write about when analyzing the theme of the piece and what to look for to compare it to the subsequent variations of the theme, also within the piece. We are writing about the music itself using the physical score as a guide. I will upload both the score and the assignment sheet. Even though the assignment sheet says to read about Fernando Sor at the very top, that is not something that is part of the actual subject of the paper. This is for a musical form and analysis class and the paper is all about the music itself, particularly how the theme and the variations that come after it are connected and similar and/or different from the original theme, and not the people who are playing it or who wrote it. The assignment sheet lists specifics on what to look for in the theme to compare and contrast with the variations. Preferably, the theme analysis and then each variation would have its own paragraph.

Learning File

 

Sub Task 2 Laboratory Investigation of a Crump Weir

 

Preparation for this assessment

• Make sure you have accessed the assessment subtask 2 folder in the assessment section of the module site
• Prior to the laboratory class you are advised to familiarise yourself with the location of the laboratory (Harmer 2003c).
• Read the Hydrometry in the UK document in the folder for week 10 in the learning materials section of the module site
• Carry out some background research/reading into flow measurement and Stage/Discharge relationships
• Read Chapter 6 (Flow in Channels) of Fundamentals of Fluvial Geomorphology by Ro Charlton
  • This is available as an online resource. Look at the Resource list online available in Support Resources for access

 

Gauging Stations and Stage/Discharge Relationships

The water level (or stage) of a river or watercourse is measured from gauges installed at gauging stations.  The gauging station often has an artificial control which consists of a fixed structure which is installed on the river bed.  These artificial controls may be notches, weirs or flumes.  In some cases there may be ultrasonic devices installed at the gauging station to measure the stage and flow of the river.  Telemetry may be used at some gauging stations to transfer the water level data.  In the UK daily and monthly river flow data is collected by the Environment Agency from over 1500 gauging stations.  “The Centre for Ecology and Hydrology holds the National Rivers Flow Archive (NRFA).  It collates and archives data from the gauging station networks throughout the UK.  The data obtained from the gauging stations are used for high (flood prediction) and low (water quality and aquatic life) water management” (CEH, 2014).

Crump Weir

A Crump weir is to be tested in a hydraulic flume in the laboratory.  Readings in the laboratory are to be taken using a pointer gauge, a weigh tank and a stop watch.  The Crump weir is a solid long base weir which can operate under a wide range of flow conditions.  These weirs are commonly used in the UK for discharge measurement in rivers.  It relies on critical conditions occurring on the apex of the weir for the discharge formula to work.  It has a triangular shaped section.  The upstream slope is 1 in 2 and the downstream is 1 in 5.  The sloping upstream face helps to reduce the dead water region which occurs with other types of long-based weirs.

2. Lower the pointer gauge down to the channel bed just upstream of the weir and record the reading in the box provided.
3. Lower the pointer gauge down until it just touches the apex of the weir and record the reading in the box provided.
4. Open the inlet valve and allow water to flow over the weir.
5. Close the valve to the weigh tank and allow the flow to steady.
6. When the pointer on the gauge reaches 120 kg on the red scale start the clock and record the reading.
7. Stop the clock at 220 kg record the reading and also the corresponding time.
8. Open the valve to the weigh tank.
9. Lower the pointer gauge down until it just touches the water surface and record the reading on the table provided.
10. Increase the discharge over the weir and repeat steps 5 – 10.

this is an essay which has missing references and citations. they need to be added within the essay. I have highlighted the sections and commented on track changes on the right hand side.please follow these carefully. Also the referencing style is: Harvard (APA 6th edition) style. you can see some referenced sections anyway so please do it the same way. note that all references must be published between 2000-2015
