Questions and answers to APS 201 :INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGY OF PERSONALITY paper.

Good Student, you are most welcome to this module I suppose that you have interacted with learning and more so psychology in your schooling. I suppose that you have heard about school psychology and probably come up with your own version of the meaning and what it entails in the field of psychology and learning especially when it relates to yourself, your colleagues, family siblings, community and the general society in which education is being emphasized by the government. There has been issues of education for all ideology, global and national millennium development goals of education, and Kenya’s vision 2030 where one of the pillars of expected developmental reforms is basically education. All this indicate that that schooling for all children becomes a key focal issue in the current government In this module, we will introduce you school psychology and explore the rationale for studying it and possible integrating it in our day today learning from psychological point of views in order to enhance effective and efficient learning and holistic wellness among teachers, students, management and even home environments.

Sex and Gender: Sex refers to the biological characteristics that categorize someone as either female or male; Gender refers to the socially determined ideas, roles and practices of what is expected of male or female. These ideas and roles are assigned by cultural beliefs of a community. Culture: This is distinctive patterns of ideas, beliefs, and norms which characterize the way of life and relations of society. We already said that culture defines the roles of men and women. This brings about gender stereotypes. For example we normally assume that women cannot be leaders or cannot initiate development for the family, only men can. This is a stereotype because there are many cases where women are actually the breadwinners of their families. Men cannot be good in child caring, another stereotype which prevents men from childcare duties even if they might be good at it. Another way to understand these concepts is to know the meaning of patriarchy; systemic societal structures that institutionalize male physical, social and economic power over women. That is why it is important to understand the concept of power relations; the hierarchical power between men and women that tend to disadvantage women.

Home based care and support refer to healthcare services delivered in the comfort and familiarity of a patient's home, rather than in a traditional medical facility. Home-based care is defined as any HIV and related care provided to people in their homes by formal or informal caregivers including physical, psychosocial, palliative, and spiritual activities, and is mainly provided by community-based organizations.

At equilibrium a system composed of several phases is governed by the phase rule: F = C – P + 2 F is the number of degrees of freedom, it is the least number of intensive variables that must be fixed/known to describe the system completely. C is the number of components and P is the number of phases present. The number of components is the smallest number of constituents by which the composition of each phase in the system at equilibrium can be expressed in the form of a chemical formula or equation.

At the end of the lectures on this topic you will be able to solve problems related to principal moment of inertia of rigid bodies. We are going to consider the general motion of a rigid body in space. This motion will consist of a translation of a fixed point of the body plus rotation about an axis through the fixed point which is not necessarily restricted in direction. Angular Momentum and Kinetic Energy First, we consider the angular momentum.

At the end of the lectures on this topic you will be able to understand the principles of conservation of linear momentum, angular momentum and energy of a system of particles. When we are considering the dynamics of a system of particles, we have to consider both the external forces acting on the particles due to sources outside the system and internal forces on the particles due to the sources within the system.

While solving the problems in dynamics, one must take account of the constraints that limit the motion of the system. Examples (i) In rigid bodies, constraints keep distance between the particles unchanged. (ii) The beads of an abacus are constrained to one dimensional motion by the supporting wires. (iii) Gas molecules in a container are constrained by the walls of the vessel to move only inside the container. (iv) A particle placed on the surface of a solid body is subject to the constraint that it can move only on the surface or in the region exterior to the body.

GENERAL APPLICATION OF ICT ICT Application in Everyday Life ICT is an acronym for Information Communication Technology. It covers all forms of computer and communication equipment and software used to create, design, store, transmit, interpret and manipulate information in its various formats. Examples of ICT TOOLS are laptops, tablets, network technologies, mobile phones and so on as well as the various services and applications associated with them such as video conferencing, telecomputing and so on. ICT APPLICATIONS E-LEARNING: ICT can contribute to achieving universal education worldwide, through the delivery of education and training of teachers and offering improved conditions for long life learning, encompassing people that are outside the formal education process and improving professional skills. Benefits • Develop domestic policies to ensure that ICTs are fully integrated in education and training at all levels. • Promote e-literacy skills for all, for example by taking advantage of existing facilities such as libraries and so on. • Develop distance learning, training and other forms of education as part of capacity building programmes. • Help to train users to develop self-learning and self-development capacities. E-BUSINESS • Better Customer Service: E-business has improved customer service. Many a time on visiting a website, the customer is greeted by a pop-up chat window. Readily available customer service may help in encouraging the customer to know about the product or services. • Reduces Transaction Cost: Websites are sufficiently loaded with directions to facilitate stress free transactions. The mode of payments is predetermined, promising security to the customer. All you are left with, as the proprietor of your online business, is to download the requirement order and ship it. • Flexible Business Hours: E-business breaks down the time barriers that locationbased businesses encounter, because the internet is available 24hrs a day.

Entrepreneurial Finance consists of knowing how to identify, develop and implement the appropriate financial strategies required to create and operate a new venture or significantly expand an existing enterprise. While Entrepreneurial Finance is useful primarily to new venture decision makers, it can be applied by an enterprising person or group that seeks to comprehend the financial implications of some action they are considering. Entrepreneurial Finance is not Corporate Finance. Corporate finance is taught in most business schools, but it is largely irrelevant to most entrepreneurs.

An entrepreneur is an individual who identifies business opportunities, takes calculated risks, and organizes resources to turn innovative ideas into successful ventures. Entrepreneurs are characterized by their ability to innovate, adapt to change, and assume responsibility for the outcomes of their ventures. Business Person Definition: A business person is a professional involved in various aspects of business activities, which may include planning, organizing, directing, and controlling resources to achieve organizational goals. Unlike entrepreneurs, business persons may focus on established enterprises and managerial roles. 1.2 Differentiating Between Entrepreneurial Ventures and Business Ventures Entrepreneurial Ventures: These are ventures initiated by entrepreneurs, emphasizing innovation, risk taking, and the pursuit of new opportunities. Entrepreneurial ventures often involve creating something new, disrupting existing markets, and pushing the boundaries of traditional business. Business Ventures: Business ventures refer to a broader category that includes both entrepreneurial and more established business activities. While entrepreneurial ventures are a subset of business ventures, the latter encompasses a wider range of business activities, including those driven by stability and continuity.

Social computing and informatics brings together people, technology, information and innovation. People, organizations, industries and communities interact, connect and collaborate in social context. Digital systems support online research, education, health, communication and entertainment. Organizations harness the power of social computing and informatics to enhance business transactions and boost reputation. Amazon applies social computing to engage and captivate customers, boasting impressive 27.8 million Facebook page likes and 2.7 million followers. Amazon promptly and directly responds to the customers on Facebook, swiftly addressing all comments and ensuring that clients are well satisfied with the services. Due to comprehensive collection of feedback and reviews from the previous customers, effectively demonstrating the excellence of its products and services, most people trust Amazon. Hence, without digital systems and connections to the Internet nothing can be achieved. Bachelor of Information Science (BIS) level four or fourth year consists of 10 core course units or subjects, with 5 course units per semester. BIS CIS 403: Social Computing and Informatics explores human-computer/human-machine/human-machine product interactions and its impact in the society.

Creativity is the ability to create something original/new. Innovation is creating/developing and implementing new/original valuable process, product or service, or making valuable changes to existing ones; Invention is creating and implementing a product, service, or process that, though based on those that have come before, represents a leap/ a major difference in the way it was. Both innovation and invention are manifestations of creativity. All inventions contain innovations, but not every innovation rises to the level of an invention.
