of the attempt scores for each homework assignment. Thenumber of attempts and range of attempts were calculated after manipulating the submission dataexported from ANGEL to Microsoft Excel®. The homework submission variables describingthe students’ interaction with the online homework included the time between the first and lastattempt of the homework assignment and the time between the first attempt and the due date ofthe homework assignment. These variables show when students started the online homeworkassessment and how long they took to complete their homework attempt(s). These data werecalculated by using the submission time stamp data from ANGEL for the time of eachsubmission. A macro was written in Excel to transform submission time

goal/s.”7A further goal for the student teams is to make explicit that innovation and meeting the needs ofthe adopters of the technology developed in the projects is required to achieve project success.This moves the emphasis from a social business to the development of a social entrepreneurialactivity. Definition of what is meant by social entrepreneurship is widely debated, but there aresome core elements and qualities that are frequently recognized, for example: Page 25.366.3 “Social entrepreneurs are society’s change agents, creators of innovations that disrupt the status quo and transform our world for the better.

take that intermittent time could have some discretion by the department and some ability to work it out so that it meets everybody’s needs. So there is a role for the supervisor or [department chair] or whatever, in combination with the business office when it comes down to that. [A8/ Policy Administrator 1]Options like intermittent time, as well as taking advantage of the policy in general are automaticonce a person fills out the proper forms. However, how the policy and its options are actuallyput into place in a given case requires coordination with the chair of a department as well as thebusiness office. For instance, such as in A3's case where she took sick leave, the business officesin departments keep track of

The network layer at node A receives 4000 bytesfrom the transport layer, to be sent to node B. Assume that the MTU (in bytes) of the copperEthernet network, copper serial network, optical fiber network, and copper Ethernet network is10000, as shown in the figure. Assume also that the final hop, the wireless network, has an MTUof 1420. (a) How will the transfer happen in each router?
