Notes, summaries, assignments, exams, and problems for Vocational training

11 .- In the various working groups is a process of psychological accommodation forms and systems of work to produce a reaction against the innovations, because every system has a tendency to stay in balance.

-Causes: habits created, fear of the unknown, comfort.

-Consequences: indifference and lack of collaboration projects discourage, anticipation of possible negative effects, an emphasis on positive aspects of obstacles that are the consequence of errors.

- Pattern: consider the recipients, well defined objectives, avoid unnecessary changes, highlight advantages in contrast, accept criticism and fix flaws.

12 .- worker attitudes to the changes: flexible (not rigid), openness to change (not close), always positive, creative, minimize fear,... Continue reading "Emotional intelligence capabilities" »

Biometric Systems: Enhancing Security

Biometric systems, applied to information systems, allow for the authentication of individuals using electronic technologies. These technologies employ complex mathematical formulas to ensure that the person applying for entry to a resource, or a physical space, is who they claim to be.

Increased Security with Biometric Access Systems

Personal identification methods to control access are based on:

• Something you know: passwords or access keywords.
• Something you own: for example, an encoded magnetic card.
• A personal characteristic: such as fingerprints or iris.

Combining two or more methods provides an even higher level of security.

Biometrics: Key Characteristics

• Universality: All individuals possess this characteristic.

Core Components of Evaluation

Evaluation: The process of delineating, obtaining, and providing useful information to judge alternatives and make decisions.

Process: A continuous and permanent method involving a series of operations.

Outline: The first important task is to plan the process of gathering the necessary information.

Information: Data is obtained from different sources using various tools (files, assignments, etc.). The variety and quantity of information are essential.

Useful Information: Collected data should be based on evaluation goals and expected decisions. It must maintain objectivity, validity, reliability, relevance, and timeliness.

Value Judgments: The information collected will be interpreted and compared with established standards... Continue reading "Effective Educational Evaluation and Decision Making" »

Urban Planning and Land Management

A Technical Administrator is needed to carry out the plans, project implementation, and expropriation, requiring new administrative institutions with the power to change land ownership structures.

This arises partly because developer actions, whether public or private, generate profits on new farms. The intent is to balance the burdens and benefits of this action.

In short, public institutions regulate and ensure that the urbanization process results in housing with ideal conditions, now known as quality of life. The approach management techniques of the new administrative tools depend on the plan's intended use. Land may be expropriated as inherent, redistributed among owners, or equitably distributed among... Continue reading "Urban Planning: Expropriation, Land Management, and Quality of Life" »

Phases of the Informal Relationship

The phases of the informal relationship are:

1. Reaction orientation

First, observe the patient's reaction to the situation, both verbal and nonverbal aspects. Then consider how to address the situation.

2. Implementation (Outturn)

This phase consists of implementing the plan that was devised, attempting to guide the patient in seeking solutions.

3. Conclusion

The purpose is to ensure that the objective was achieved, i.e., the patient has received the help they needed.

Item 4: Psychosocial Aspects of Illness

In this module we will focus especially on the psychosocial aspects of illness. There are a number of psychological characteristics, present to varying degrees in patients. Among them are:

• Experiencing anxiety

Features of Repair Benches

• Stiffness: Ability to withstand efforts.
• Versatility: Capacity for adaptation.
• Durability: Capacity to last.
• Adaptability: Ability to adjust to different tools or accessories.
• Simplicity: Simplicity of the bed.

Types of Repair Benches

• Mini-benches
• Folding benches
• Fixed benches with ground elevator
• Benches for trucks
• Benches for truck cabs

Diagnosing Vehicle Damage

After receiving the vehicle, a visual inspection will be performed to determine if the repair can be made on the repair bench. Check the symmetries of the front and back over the roof and sides, and the back and front. Monitor the underside of the vehicle chassis for damage. Check for play and mismatches between the doors, front and rear fenders, front doors and the... Continue reading "Vehicle Body Repair Bench Techniques" »

Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) Fundamentals

1. Sampling Process

Samples are taken for the analog signal, measuring its amplitude (voltage). The process involves the following steps:

1. The telephone signal has a voice frequency range of 300–3400 Hz. It passes through a low-pass filter, considering the signal from 0 to 4 kHz.
2. A sample is taken instantaneously, and the amplitude value is retained for measurement.
3. According to Nyquist's theorem, we need a sampling frequency ($f_s$) twice the maximum signal frequency ($f_s \ge 2f_{max}$). For a 4 kHz signal, this results in a sample every 125 $\mu$s (microseconds), corresponding to $f_s = 8,000$ samples/second.
4. This process yields a train of Pulse Amplitude Modulated (PAM) pulses.

2. Quantization and Companding

The... Continue reading "Digital Signal Conversion: PCM Sampling, Quantization, and A-Law Encoding" »

Understanding Essential Business Documents

Order: A document detailing the items a customer demands and the conditions of purchase. Through this order, it is communicated to the selling company that a good or service will be acquired.

Waybill: A document that details and justifies the delivery of goods made to the customer.

Invoice: A document that legally proves services rendered or the sale of goods.

Types of Payments & Checks

Cash Payment: A payment that takes place at the same time as the delivery of goods or services.

Term Payment: A payment that is made at a later, agreed-upon time.

Understanding Checks

Check: A document instructing a financial institution to pay a certain sum of money to the person designated as the payee or the bearer.

Strategies and techniques of communication

The transmission of thoughts to someone else may be through multiple channels (verbal, written, gestures, drawing, etc.). Meetings, conferences (courses, training), and short messages are very clear to foster good communication. Consider the following recommendations:

1. Briefly explain the point to be addressed.
2. Avoid using some topics, and if used, keep it brief.
3. Be mindful of the public when talking.
4. Pay attention to body language.
5. Utilize short sentences and understandable vocabulary.
6. Use audiovisuals whenever possible.
7. Accept comments, avoid confrontations, and be as objective as possible.
8. Use anecdotes and examples to illustrate the topic.
9. Finish with a summary and brief explanation of the findings.

Sources of Law and Legal Precedent

The legal system relies on various sources to establish rules and interpretations:

• Law: Any written rule of law prevails over other written or unwritten sources.
• Custom: A practice repeated due to certain conduct, carried out with the intention of creating a legal obligation.
• General Principles of Law (PG Law): These are the foundations and pillars upon which legal rules are constructed. They are inspired by Morality, Justice, and Equity. These principles are of direct application, often complementing or interpreting the law.
• Jurisprudence (Decisions): Joint statements issued by the Supreme Court on similar facts, which set precedent and provide a consistent response.
• Legal Doctrine (Scientific Doctrine): Joint
