Document Summary

In the equity theory of motivation, employee"s motivation depends on their perception of how fair is the compensation and treatment for their work input. Theory states that the employees perceive what they get from a job situation. The equity theory of motivation describes the relationship between the employee"s perception of how fairly is he being treated and how hard he is motivated to work. If the person perceives the rewards as equitable, he/she probably will continue at the same level of output. If the person feels that he/she is inequitably rewarded, he/she may be dissatisfied, reduce the quantity or quality of output, or even leave the organization. The three situations of equity theory are illustrated in the following figure: An employee with several years" experience can be frustrated to find out that a recent college grad hired at a salary level higher than he or she is current earnings, causing motivation levels to drop.

Terror of Wounded Knee
The Indian activists who have taken hostages and staged a violent replay of the "battle" of Wounded Knee are engaged in a dangerous game. If the first battle was a massacre, the second is also a crime. Certainly, it will not help the Indians' cause with the great majority of Americans.
 
We have had too much experience in this country with those who fantasize with high-powered rifles and who dramatize themselves with violence against others.
 
After a decade of riots, mass murders, and assassinations, Americans no longer are moved to sympathy by twisted souls who believe that they can win votes with gun-powder and extortion
 
The activists in this case have made the usual demands and already some politicians are talking of acceding to those demands. Let us hope that this line of official acquiescence to blackmail will not be followed.
 
The first priority must be to get the hostages back to safety; then there must be no official move later to reward the kidnappers or excuse their crime on the grounds that it was politically inspired. We should have learned by now that the casualty of a politically motivated crime is just as dead as the victim of any other crime. Political terrorism has no place in this country. Those who engage in it must be dealt with as terrorists, not as a new brand of political promoters.
 
Overview:
In this assignment you will review the hierarchy of an organism and the systems of the body. You will choose one system in the body and complete a chart listing the different parts for each level of organization within this system.

Background Information:
The hierarchy of an organism describes the levels of organization within an organism. These levels of organization are defined by the size and complexity of their parts from smallest to largest. The smallest level of organization of living organisms is a cell. A cell is the most basic unit of structure and function. Cells combine to create tissues. There are 4 types of tissues that make up all of the body:
  • Epithelial tissue forms the interior and exterior surfaces of the body. It creates surfaces for protection, absorption, and excretion.
  • Muscular tissue makes up the organs that have voluntary and involuntary functions and forms the organs responsible for movement.
  • Connective tissue forms binding, supporting, and transporting structures and usually contains collagen for strength.
  • Nervous tissue is made of neurons and glial cells that transport nerve impulses across the body.
