It is a key component for determining the value perception of its customers.Basically, the customer centered organization is better able to identify new opportunities,determine a strategy, and be competitive. This is accomplished by monitoring the perceivedvalue expected by its customers and setting a long-term course to satisfy those expectations. Inmany cases, it is all too easy for organizations to become fixated on their competitors actions andlose sight of its customer focus. These competitor centered organizations plan their moves basedupon their competitors’ actions and reactions while customer centered organizations focus on theneeds and wants of their

We are planning to implement features of this learning para-digm into one additional newly designed course: junior-level Circuits and Systems II, to betaught for the first time in the fall of 2006.

Each week, the students met either virtually orin person as part of their sustained inquiry. They spoke with facilitators, who encouraged thestudents to ask as many questions as possible to determine how to plan the project. A list ofquestions was created by the students to determine what knowledge they may receive to beginthe project planning. The students then set time aside to figure out

In recognition of this threat, the May 2015 World Health Assembly is expected to adopt a Global Action Plan on antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The conservation of current antibiotics is particularly important for combatting AMR. The development of new therapeutics is critical, but ultimately a temporary fix if the global community does not practice measures to conserve antibiotics. Antibiotic stewardship is challenging because it hinges on a variety of social and behavioral phenomena. Social science, while
