Forum: Discussion: Onboarding, Training, and Developing Employees

QUESTION – QUESTION

In our professional experiences, most of us have been frustrated with coworkers that didn’t know everything they needed to know and cost their employer money(or their coworkers time) needlessly. A good plan for onboarding and training can engage employees and save money.

Discussion Prompt (150 word minimum on your training program)

Think about a time when you wished your coworkers had received more training in their positions. Then, use the ADDIE method to develop a training program for those coworkers, using your own knowledge as the basis for that training program. If you haven’t been employed before, or if you don’t remember an instance where coworkers needed training, create a fictional scenario.

Once you’ve created your own training program, review three training programs created by your classroom peers. Did they complete all the steps of ADDIE? Did they give you any ideas about your own training program?

Accounting

Question

Suppose that the water flow of a local river can be modeled by the vector field F(x, y, z) =< 3xy², xe², z³ >:

Q1a) Your goal is to plant a net in the water at the point (-2, 1, 0) and go fishing but you need to know some important information about that spot before you make your final decision.
Determine any and all information you can about what’s going to happen to your net if you place it at that point. Will it spin? What direction will it rotate (if it even will)? How fast? Is the water centralizing at your net (and thus making it a good place to put it to catch fish), or is water flowing away from that area? Is it moving fast? Slow? Write out a complete answer, supported by any/all mathematical calculations used to come up with your conclusions.
