questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998‚ the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum‚ assessment‚ and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core‚ the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key

Activity-based costing in restaurants 1. Introduction Interest in cost and management accounting practices in the restaurant industry is rising (Raab et al.‚ 2009; Annaraud et al.‚ 2008). Pavesic (1985) has initiated research in pricing and cost accounting for restaurants‚ introducing the concept of profit factor (PF) in menu engineering (ME). Prior studies‚ such as the one presented in Chan and Au (1998) investigate the implications of not incorporating overhead costs in menu-item profitability

A Brief History of Interior Design Credit for the birth of interior design is most often given to the Ancient Egyptians‚ who decorated their humble mud huts with simple furniture enhanced by animal skins or textiles‚ as well as murals‚ sculptures‚ and painted vases. Beautiful gold ornaments found in Egyptian tombs (such as that of King Tutankhamen) revealed the importance of more lavish decoration for wealthier and powerful Egyptians. The Roman and Greek civilizations built upon the Egyptian art

i) Explain the prominent features of the design argument ii) Comment on the view that the design argument provides coherent explanation for the universe. The design argument is the argument for the existence of God based around the idea that the universe is designed and if it has been designed then there must have been a designer and therefore that designer must be God. Like the cosmological argument it is an a posteriori argument‚ which means that it relies upon empirical evidence (evidence

“good design” is shifting‚ and green design is increasingly being recognized as a vital component. As designers reassess our roles‚ many are endeavoring to invoke consciousness around sustainability at every step in the design process. We need to lead more sustainable lives. I believe most designers want to do the right thing‚ but we don’t always know what the right thing is‚ nor do we know where to start if we want to get there. As a profession‚ we need to start by thinking about design in a larger

WAN Design Today’s network administrators must manage complex wide-area networks (WANs) in order to support the growing number of software applications that are built around Internet Protocol (IP) and the Web. These WANs place a great demand on network resources‚ and require high-performance networking technologies. WANs are complex environments that incorporate multiple media‚ multiple protocols‚ and inter-connection to other networks‚ such as the Internet. Growth and manageability of these network
