Essay Topics:
The Loss of Individual Rights in
1984
:
Personal privacy and space is never granted throughout
1984
. Every person is always subject to observation, even by their own family members and friends. Furthermore, since Big Brother is always watching and the Thought Police are always on the lookout, it is impossible for any kind of individualism to flourish. For this essay you can look at the ways this occurs and how various characters attempt (successfully or not) to subvert it. Then move out to consider how this lack of privacy (and by proxy, individualism) influences individuals and society as a whole in the present day. How does the present US Government subvert the rights of the individual and how does this compare to the novel?
Fear of Technology
: During WWII, technology was primarily developed for military purposes, specifically for the surveillance of the enemy. People are generally resistant to technology that they believe can be used against them. George Orwell’s novel
1984
plays on this inherent fear of technology. Discuss the role of technology in Oceania. In what areas is technology highly advanced, and in what areas has its progress stalled? Why? How is it used against the people? To control them? How does this reflect the human fear of technology during the time the novel was written? How does this fear carry over in the modern world? Is it valid? How can technology be used against the common man to violate individual rights? How does this compare to the novel?

Touchstone 3.2 Draft an Argumentative Research Essay
July 16, 2020
Recent pandemic, commonly referred to as COVID 19, has changed the world dynamics. This disease has not just crashed the world health system but has also impacted the global education system. COVID 19 has made our daily routine vulnerable. Still, the precautionary measures such as social distancing have not just impacted the social life of human beings. Still, they have also altered the Present and the future of the global learning system. According to the UNESCO report, the nationwide termination of educations institutes has obstructed over 60% of the world's learner’s populace, with approximately 1.53 billion learners out of learning institutes. Many educationists believe that with the current circumstance, the drop-out rate of students across the globe will increase in the near future because of the disruption in the system. Though many parents and institutes are still in denial of the changes that have occurred due to the pandemic, educationists and research indicate that the current alteration in the global education system will not be short-lived and will have a profound impact on the future means of education. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Write smoothly: this sentence is awkward. Try reading your writing aloud to see if it sounds natural. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Use specific language: what do you mean by “crashed?” Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Avoid repetition in your essay: here, beginning two sentences in a row with “still” weakens your writing. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Cite all outside information in APA format. You can find information on it here: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/general_format.html Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Look out for odd word choices throughout your paper. Write clearly, directly, and concisely. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Important: improve this thesis. Your thesis statement must be argumentative: it must take a side and state what should be done What exactly are you arguing for?
Education System during Pandemic Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: If you are going to use headings, use them throughout the paper, including for your Introduction and Conclusion.
The recent survey shows that around 22 countries in three continents have closed their learning system on local and state levels because of COVID 19. Such massive disruption has pushed educators and institutions to opt for new means of education, such as online learning and instructional tutoring. However, such means of education has also exposed other crucial factors, such as inconsistent resource allocation and social and economic differences. The historical research on the impact of school closure depicts that even a brief intervention in school activities has a h.

Group Summary of
Reinhard
Please work with your group (or individually) to summarize Reinhard’s article. Your summary should be two pages long, in MLA format, listing the name of each participant in your breakout room who attended and contributed for the entire session.
To begin your summary, tell who wrote the essay, the name of the essay, and what the writer’s main point or project is. As with McDonald’s you should be able to do this is one short paragraph. (
For example: In his essay, “ Disgrace and the Neighbor: An Interchange with Bill McDonald,” Coetzee scholar Kenneth Reinhard responds to Bill McDonald’s essay, arguing against McDonald’s thesis that David Lurie changes. It is Reinhart’s thesis that David Lurie does not undergo significant change in the novel. In answering McDonald, Reinhard analyzes each of Lurie’s changed vision in the context of two sets of questions—one regarding the redemptive potential of change in vision and the second regarding what it means to love one’s neighbor.
Reinhard devotes the first 1 ½ pages to this contextualization. In the middle of page 2, he announces his own project: he will respond to McDonald by questioning the redemptive nature of vision AND also questioning neighbor love. Reinhard then sets about defining and contextualizing the significance of erotic vision. On page 96, he begins his analysis of the three visions set forth by McDonald, addressing the limitations of each vision to indicate real change in Lurie. This might be the heart of your summary.
Reinhard moves from his analysis of the three visions to an analysis of neighborly love in Disgrace and the problems of living side-by-side with those whose presence may be a challenge. He places his case for the novel’s redemption in Lucy and her “blindness” to the evils she has suffered.
Once again your summary should be 2 pages long, double-spaced in MLA format.

This document discusses how Art Spiegelman and Alison Bechdel both experienced generational trauma through their works "In The Shadow of No Towers" and "Fun Home", respectively. While the scale and time period of their traumas differed, both impacted and changed their behaviors. For Spiegelman, the 9/11 terrorist attacks became a trauma for himself and all Americans, causing anxiety and worry for his family's safety. Bechdel's trauma stemmed from the lack of societal acceptance of homosexuality during her childhood and father's closeted identity. The document analyzes how each author represented and dealt with their generational traumas through their artistic works.

English 101 - Reminders and Help for Rhetorical Analysis Paragraph.docx
English 101 - Reminders and Help for Rhetorical Analysis Paragraphs
1. Remember the “Rule of Thirds” for Body Paragraphs (Besides BP1 on Essay II)
Top 1/3 of Paragraph (about 4-5 sentences) – your development of an idea stated through a clear topic sentence and a group of follow up sentences that explain and ‘analyze’ the point.
-(P) main point of paragraph in the topic sentence
-(I) follow up and explanation of the idea, how it is true and its importance
Middle 1/3 of paragraph (4-5 sentences) – this section should be focused on ‘support’ of your that will in a sense prove the idea presented
-(E) Use of a specific example/evidence from the text or perhaps a ‘universal’ example to display and ‘show’ your audience what you mean or perhaps a secondary source
Final 1/3 (4-5 sentences) – summarize and reassert your main point in a fresh way.
-(S) Returning to your main point – you may have to transition out of your example to return back to your main idea. Be sure to restate it and perhaps change the context to analyze it in a new way.
2. Help Developing Main Points – Rhetorical Analysis
The I and S sections carry a lot of ‘weight’ because they are the areas where a student writer can show the depth of their thinking and comprehension of the idea presented. This is especially true with rhetorical analysis paragraphs: Target Audience, Message, Manipulation/Persuasion, Effectiveness, and/or Effect (an indiv. essay will not have all of these).
Asking questions of your main point is a great way to ‘dig’ for development of your idea. Here are some example questions for each RA paragraph that may help you plan/develop your I and S sections:

Assignment #2: Mis and Dis
Purpose and Logistics:
Normally, as we work on assignment #2 in ENGL 301B we would be revisiting key structural elements of essays more advanced than the Five-Paragraph-Style (FPS) Essay. However, many of the lessons that I usually use for this assignment to focus on global organization are activities that (despite my best efforts) are activities that I don’t have an easy fix for to convert them to activities that can be done at home or online. So this is going to be a bit awkward.
Instead, we’ll drill down on paragraph development and strategies for introductory paragraphs and concluding paragraphs.
Moreover, since many (but not all) of you are taking the class C/NC instead of for a letter grade, some of you will only plan to write two out of class essays instead of all three.
This assignment topic should be completed by all students taking the class who DO NOT plan to use A1 in the final portfolio. It’s another argumentative, thesis-driven essay, and every passing portfolio should have one. A3 is a more narrative topic (although it does involve some heavy-duty analysis.)
However, I am mindful that even though this assignment has two topic options, both of them may be close enough to current events that students who either struggle with issues of anxiety or who are easily distracted by news in our current study and work environments might find this assignment hard to complete, even if you choose to focus on political mis and dis instead of public health mis and dis. (Those terms will make sense soon.)
To that end, I am posting the materials for A2 and A3 at the same time and asking students to make the choices that work best for them when selecting which assignment to work on next.
When we hold online classes, we may divide up into A2 and A3 groups to discuss the topics. Stay tuned for details.

ENGL2310 Essay 2 Assignment Due by Saturday, June 13, a.docx
ENGL2310: Essay 2 Assignment Due by Saturday, June 13, at 11:59pm Central
The Essay 2 assignment builds on the analytical skills you displayed in Essay 1, asking you to deepen those skills by applying two lenses to the readings. We’re also adding in our Weeks 5 and 6 reading, Heart of Darkness, a work of 20th-century literature. Exploring the intersection of two different themes is an opportunity to narrow your scope even further, giving you a stronger foundation for analysis.
For this assignment, you have the option to submit the essay as a normal Word document or as a digital text called a Sway. This is a chance to get experience with digital writing before the Final Project. (Here’s an example of a Sway that introduces postcolonial theory.) A multimodal approach with Sway opens many creative possibilities, but those should all be in service of enhancing a deep analysis.
Whichever mode of delivery you choose, the essay should have the elements of a scholarly literary analysis: APA or MLA citation style (you can skip the abstract!); a narrow, arguable thesis statement; separate supporting ideas with topic sentences/transitions; and a dynamic conclusion.
In this essay, you are expected to do the following:
1. Select two of the themes of postcolonial theory that you would like to explore. These will be the lenses through which you look at the literature. You’re more than welcome to stick to the same initial theme you chose for Essay 1 and add in a new one, or you could choose two entirely new themes to apply.
2. Describe the lenses and explain how/why they represent a promising combination. Why are they worthwhile to discuss in relationship to one another? How do they inform one another? How does the combination limit your approach in helpful, constructive, or opportune ways? Be specific.
3. Apply that lens to The Epic of Gilgamesh, The Tempest, and Heart of Darkness. This should be the bulk of your writing. How do the themes function within the story? What specific moments in the story are valuable for drawing deeper insights about the intersection between the two themes? Include balanced textual evidence, not simply general statements about the plot elements or characters. Ultimately, the analysis should answer this question: what do these three stories reveal about how these themes combine? What insight(s) can we take from the readings that apply beyond the literature?
Additional advice:
Your essay should be a postcolonial analysis, not just a character study or a general discussion of symbols in the literature. The focus on colonial relationships should not be difficult to maintain, especially as we’re tying in 20th-century literature that’s directly tied to actual colonial events. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re having trouble working through ideas or weighing your options.
As you can see in the rubric, a specific length is not part of the grading criteria, but successful essays are generally bet.

ENGL 151 Research Essay
Assignment Details
Value: 25% (additional 5% for Draft/Peer Review)
Due Date: Draft—Jun 10
Final—June 19
Length: 1500 words (does not count the references list)
Instructions
Write a 1,500 word argumentative essay in which you communicate and defend a thesis about a specific topic you have begun researching over the first four weeks of the term.
While your essay is based on your own opinion about a topic, the strength of your essay will depend on your ability to anticipate objections/questions from critical readers and address them by collecting and integrating supporting evidence from other texts. As always, I expect your argument to be thorough, well-reasoned, and concise. Don’t waste space with empty words.
Your analysis should have a strong, clear structure. As a guide, consider our standard conceptualization of essay format:
· Introduction paragraph containing (among other things) a clear thesis
· Body paragraphs discussing one aspect of the argument to support your thesis
· Conclusion paragraph that reminds readers of the thesis and major supporting ideas
Your essay must be formatted according to APA 7th edition guidelines, and you must cite both quotations and paraphrasing in APA style, which includes a References list.
Research
You must incorporate information from a minimum of five reliable and appropriate sources in your essay, at least one of which must be a scholarly article from the Camosun library database. Texts providing only general information (eg. dictionaries, encyclopedias, wikis) are not appropriate sources. Web resources from reliable sources (eg. American Medical Association, Statistics Canada) can be valuable, but extreme caution should be used when defining “reliable”. If you’re in doubt, discuss with other students and/or contact me.
Academic Honesty
Remember, plagiarism is a very serious offence. All borrowed material must be cited using APA style, and any paraphrasing must be significantly re-worded from the original material.
I expect you to limit the length of your quotations (all under 40 words long).
Essay Draft: Process and Grading
1. On Wednesday, June 10, before 12:00pm (noon), you will submit a draft of your research essay to the Essay Draft Drop Box on our D2L page. Your draft should be
· a complete essay that may lack the polish of a final draft
· fully cited in APA style, including in-text citations and a references list
· formatted in APA style (see sample on D2L)
· submitted without your name on it (don’t include it on the title page)
2. I will email you another student’s draft by 5:00pm the same day, and you will use the Peer Review Guide to give feedback on the student’s essay. The review process should only take 60 minutes max (that’s how long I give my students when we do this in class).
3. You will submit your feedback to the Peer Review Drop Box on D2L before Thursday, June 11, at 5:00pm.
The draft will be graded on a pass/fail basis. Failing to su.

INPUT: The overall argument mentions the association between bad health and low income. Daniel argues that poverty increases the risk of poor hygienic and health related issues. Mentioned, is the fact that without the proper income healthcare services are limited or not accessible to those in need.
I feel the draft does need more revision, but does meet the requirements provided to our class. I have a clear understanding of the link between poor health and poverty and believe we can make this a great paper.

1. How effectively does the introduction engage the reader while providing an overview of the main controversy being addressed?
Introductory paragraph flows, however, his argument needs to be more clear. Before mentioning his point of view on poor health care linked to political injustice, he mentions a point on education, which weakens his argument by diverting the subject. Although I believe this is the argument he was attempting to make, he then begins the body of his essay by discussing correlations between poverty, healthcare, and lifestyle (e.g., diets), which once again scatters his topic.

Instructor's Guide
Introduction To The Case
On January 28, 1986, seven astronauts were killed when the space shuttle they were piloting, the Challenger,
exploded just over a minute into the flight. The failure of the solid rocket booster O-rings to seat properly
allowed hot combustion gases to leak from the side of the booster and burn through the external fuel tank. The
failure of the O-ring was attributed to several factors, including faulty design of the solid rocket boosters,
insufficient low- temperature testing of the O-ring material and the joints that the O-ring sealed, and lack of
proper communication between different levels of NASA management.
Instructor Guidelines
Prior to class discussion, ask the students to read the student handout outside of class. In class the details of the
case can be reviewed with the aide of the overheads. Reserve about half of the class period for an open
discussion of the issues. The issues covered in the student handout include the importance of an engineer's
responsibility to public welfare, the need for this responsibility to hold precedence over any other responsibilities
the engineer might have and the responsibilities of a manager/engineer. A final point is the fact that no matter how
far removed from the public an engineer may think she is, all of her actions have potential impact. Essay #6,
"Loyalty and Professional Rights" appended at the end of the case listings in this report will be found relevant for
instructors preparing to lead class discussion on this case. In addition, essays #1 through #4 appended at the end
of the cases in this report will have relevant background information for the instructor preparing to lead
classroom discussion. Their titles are, respectively: "Ethics and Professionalism in Engineering: Why the Interest in
Engineering Ethics?;" "Basic Concepts and Methods in Ethics," "Moral Concepts and Theories," and
"Engineering Design: Literature on Social Responsibility Versus Legal Liability."
Questions for Class Discussion
1. What could NASA management have done differently?
2. What, if anything, could their subordinates have done differently?
3. What should Roger Boisjoly have done differently (if anything)? In answering this question, keep in mind
that at his age, the prospect of finding a new job if he was fired was slim. He also had a family to support.
4. What do you (the students) see as your future engineering professional responsibilities in relation to both
being loyal to management and protecting the public welfare?

Engaging Families to Support Indigenous Students’ Numeracy Devel.docx
Engaging Families to Support Indigenous Students’ Numeracy Development
Abstract
Indigenous children are performing poorly in mathematical skills compared to their non-indigenous counterparts in the classroom. Reasons such as unequal education opportunities and socio-economic factors have been put forward by education scholars to justify this statement. This paper will look at some of the learning and teaching strategies that can be used in Australian education to help indigenous students in improving their numeracy skills. https://yourhomeworkaide.info/2021/06/02/briefly-describe-an-organization-with-which-you-are-familiar-describe-a-situati/ The teaching and learning skills will revolve around engaging the families, improving the relationship between home and school, and bridging the cultural gap. The parents, the community and the educators have crucial roles in implementing these learning and teaching strategies.
Introduction
Numeracy skills have been an issue in the academic endeavors of many students in Australia. More so the numeracy skills are relatively poor in indigenous students compared to non-indigenous; the achievement gap between indigenous and non-indigenous widen over time and there is worrying evidence that the size of gap in recent years has been increasing (Klenowski, 2009). Indigenous people have not been recognized in the constitution therefore they are living as immigrants in their own mother land; this means they have been sidelined in national development activities, such as education, making it difficult to close the achievement gap between them and non-indigenous people.
Many people use the word numeracy interchangeably with mathematical skills, even though related, numeracy is a broad field that involves mathematical skills, problem solving and communication skills. Numeracy goes beyond the learning process that is mainly employed in a school setting; numeracy involves the understanding of quantitative techniques that are used to communicate, solve problems, respond to issues and help in the day to day undertakings. It is almost next to impossible to achieve numeracy skills without literacy.
Indigenous students have poor numeracy skills that are as a result economic, policy and pedagogical issues. The high levels of truancy and low performance can be attributed to the economic challenges that indigenous students undergo. Educational policies have not been able to provide a level playing grounds for indigenous and non-indigenous children, there has been unequal opportunities in terms of financing, tutelage and the curriculum. All these issues can be solved by engaging the parents and communities in the decision making processes on education issues especially those regarding indigenous students. https://intellectualessay.com/2021/05/08/mgmt2021-business-law-legal-systems-in-the-caribbean/

The financial crisis of 2007-2009 was not a typical credit crunch crisis as the ones we have seen in
the modern capitalist era. It wasn’t a crisis solely driven by the irrationality of market participants or
the result of an overvalued market system; it was in fact a much more complex phenomenon. The
development and alternations in the financial sector through the last 20 years is undoubtedly
significant. With the collapse of Keynesianism in the 1970’s and the emergence of Neoliberalism the
economy was to change page from a state-led mechanism to an autonomous factor. Although
favoured by a period of high degree market liberalisation with policies of a laissez faire doctrine, the
financial sector achieved its rapid development and expansion endogenously. Within the
frameworks of the financial system, a new set of institutions emerged to supply the excess demand
for credit without however being compliant to the typical legislative requirements of a commercial
bank; this practise of regulatory and financial arbitrage was performed by the so-called “shadow
banking system”1. Rating agencies, mainly Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s became part of this
system undermining thus their actual role as exogenous regulatory forces2. Moreover, the
construction of new financial products such as asset-backed securities and their exchange in the
over-the-counter markets was a pivotal step towards a volatile financial system that relied heavily
on mortgages handed on non-creditworthy borrowers3; the burst of this bubble system was thus
inevitable.
From the end of the 1990’s up to 2007 the banking system had created an image of euphoria,
where credit was granted with less and less collateral requirements as the demand for loans had
increased dramatically and banks found a way to instantly increase their profits. It’s worth to
mention that commercial banks for example in Greece, which today operate under a capital control
scheme, in 2006 had started issuing ‘holiday’ loans to the public4. From the beginning of the 2007
economic crisis up to 2016 the Greek central bank has recapitalized the domestic commercial banks
thrice as the country was facing the threat of bankruptcy5. In the US, the heart of the global capital
markets, the government had to step in the financial markets and through direct spending to save
financial giants, such as AIG and restore the liquidity shortage that had resulted6. The complex
nature and architecture of this new financial order was depicted by the domino-like collapse of its
branches in contrary to previous typical credit crisis, as the dotcom bubble of 2001. But what really
made this new order so complex and interdependent within its spheres?
As mentioned before, because of the widespread climate of over-optimism in society people and
firms were triggered to borrow money and designed their l.

The term scholar practitioner expresses an ideal of professional excellence grounded in theory and research,
informed by experiential knowledge, and motivated by personal values, political commitments, and ethical
conduct. Scholar practitioners are committed to the well-being of clients and colleagues, to learning new ways
of being effective, and to conceptualizing their work in relation to broader organizational, community, political,
and cultural contexts. Scholar practitioners explicitly reflect on and assess the impact of their work. Their pro-
fessional activities and the knowledge they develop are based on collaborative and relational learning through
active exchange within communities of practice and scholarship.
The scholar practitioner ideal has been analyzed from various perspectives as to the nature of skilled and
principled action ranging from adult development and higher education to epistemology and social systems.
Professional fields such as education, medicine, clinical psychology, social work, program evaluation, man-
agement, engineering, architecture, and law all have addressed this role. Each of these areas has a distinct
practice track—as teacher, scholar, health care professional, psychotherapist, social worker, evaluator, man-
ager, business consultant, engineer, architect, and lawyer. Experts in these fields possess a deep understand-
ing of subject matter and practice knowledge and, compared to novices, demonstrate effective, efficient, and
creative problem solving.
Debate across professional fields has not settled on a single specification for what a scholar practitioner
should be able to do at a practical level. Areas of competence are diverse and include depth in a discipline and
its methods for creating knowledge, educational expertise (whether as a teacher, change agent, or leader),
capacity for teamwork across fields and public and private sectors, and skilled commitment to ethical con-
duct, diversity, and a global perspective. The variety of perspectives on the topic is reflected in several related
terms and emphases such as reflective practitioner, scientist practitioner, citizen scholar, public intellectual.

Hazard Vulnerabilities Assessment Matrix
Use this matrix to identify three hazard vulnerabilities found in your community. Include a 100-word description of each hazard, your reasoning for listing the hazard, and where the hazard is located in the community.
Part 1: Identify your community (area):
Part 2: Complete the matrix.
Identified hazard
Description of hazard
How did you determine that this was a potential hazard?
Where is the hazard located in the community?
Example: Rail lines
Rail lines carry freight that could contain unknown hazardous materials in large quantities. A train derailment, car leakage, or other Hazmat incident will result in large-scale evacuations because of the proximity of rail tracks to populated areas.
Mechanical failure or other stoppage on the lines bisects the community, stranding the responders from Fire Station 1 on one side of the tracks and the hospital on the other. Similarly, the community is stranded on each side of the tracks.
There is the potential for accidents at crossing points and along tracks. In addition to vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians crossing at designated points, consider animals crossing tracks, vehicles ignoring warning signs, kids playing on tracks, and even suicide attempts.
Rail lines can pose many threats to a community. The community has expanded, and the rail lines run through highly populated areas of the city.
The close proximity to houses, schools, and intersections with numerous streets creates many risks and potential areas that can be affected by these risks.
The community assessment states that the rail lines are still operable, and though they are listed as being safe, because they are operable, the risks still exist.
The rail lines run through the northern tip of the community. The east-west direction of the tracks, which runs parallel to the river, forms a split between this northern tip and what then is the southern section of the community.

English 101 - Reminders and Help for Rhetorical Analysis Paragraph.docx
English 101 - Reminders and Help for Rhetorical Analysis Paragraphs
1. Remember the “Rule of Thirds” for Body Paragraphs (Besides BP1 on Essay II)
Top 1/3 of Paragraph (about 4-5 sentences) – your development of an idea stated through a clear topic sentence and a group of follow up sentences that explain and ‘analyze’ the point.
-(P) main point of paragraph in the topic sentence
-(I) follow up and explanation of the idea, how it is true and its importance
Middle 1/3 of paragraph (4-5 sentences) – this section should be focused on ‘support’ of your that will in a sense prove the idea presented
-(E) Use of a specific example/evidence from the text or perhaps a ‘universal’ example to display and ‘show’ your audience what you mean or perhaps a secondary source
Final 1/3 (4-5 sentences) – summarize and reassert your main point in a fresh way.
-(S) Returning to your main point – you may have to transition out of your example to return back to your main idea. Be sure to restate it and perhaps change the context to analyze it in a new way.
2. Help Developing Main Points – Rhetorical Analysis
The I and S sections carry a lot of ‘weight’ because they are the areas where a student writer can show the depth of their thinking and comprehension of the idea presented. This is especially true with rhetorical analysis paragraphs: Target Audience, Message, Manipulation/Persuasion, Effectiveness, and/or Effect (an indiv. essay will not have all of these).
Asking questions of your main point is a great way to ‘dig’ for development of your idea. Here are some example questions for each RA paragraph that may help you plan/develop your I and S sections:
A. Target Audience (TA) – Why has this audience been chosen by the ‘company’/advertiser/text? What does knowing this TA tell you about the ad’s purpose/message? Why/how is this audience susceptible to the purpose/message of text.
B. Message – Why is this message being used by the ‘text’? How/why is this message meaningful to the audience? What is the message trying to make the audience feel or believe?
C. Manipulation/Persuasion – Explain a specific method/way the text tries to persuade the audience. How does this method of persuasion ‘work’ within the text? More generally, why is this approach to manipulation/persuasion used?
D. ***Effectiveness*** (prob. a paragraph only for ads) – How/why does the ad succeed or fail in its purpose? What could be done to make the ad more effective?
E. Effect – How does the add connect to, support, or create a problem in the real world? How/why does ad have this impact? How does the ‘effect’ benefit or damage the real life of audience?

Assignment #2: Mis and Dis
Purpose and Logistics:
Normally, as we work on assignment #2 in ENGL 301B we would be revisiting key structural elements of essays more advanced than the Five-Paragraph-Style (FPS) Essay. However, many of the lessons that I usually use for this assignment to focus on global organization are activities that (despite my best efforts) are activities that I don’t have an easy fix for to convert them to activities that can be done at home or online. So this is going to be a bit awkward.
Instead, we’ll drill down on paragraph development and strategies for introductory paragraphs and concluding paragraphs.
Moreover, since many (but not all) of you are taking the class C/NC instead of for a letter grade, some of you will only plan to write two out of class essays instead of all three.
This assignment topic should be completed by all students taking the class who DO NOT plan to use A1 in the final portfolio. It’s another argumentative, thesis-driven essay, and every passing portfolio should have one. A3 is a more narrative topic (although it does involve some heavy-duty analysis.)
However, I am mindful that even though this assignment has two topic options, both of them may be close enough to current events that students who either struggle with issues of anxiety or who are easily distracted by news in our current study and work environments might find this assignment hard to complete, even if you choose to focus on political mis and dis instead of public health mis and dis. (Those terms will make sense soon.)
To that end, I am posting the materials for A2 and A3 at the same time and asking students to make the choices that work best for them when selecting which assignment to work on next.
When we hold online classes, we may divide up into A2 and A3 groups to discuss the topics. Stay tuned for details.

ENGL2310 Essay 2 Assignment Due by Saturday, June 13, a.docx
ENGL2310: Essay 2 Assignment Due by Saturday, June 13, at 11:59pm Central
The Essay 2 assignment builds on the analytical skills you displayed in Essay 1, asking you to deepen those skills by applying two lenses to the readings. We’re also adding in our Weeks 5 and 6 reading, Heart of Darkness, a work of 20th-century literature. Exploring the intersection of two different themes is an opportunity to narrow your scope even further, giving you a stronger foundation for analysis.
For this assignment, you have the option to submit the essay as a normal Word document or as a digital text called a Sway. This is a chance to get experience with digital writing before the Final Project. (Here’s an example of a Sway that introduces postcolonial theory.) A multimodal approach with Sway opens many creative possibilities, but those should all be in service of enhancing a deep analysis.
Whichever mode of delivery you choose, the essay should have the elements of a scholarly literary analysis: APA or MLA citation style (you can skip the abstract!); a narrow, arguable thesis statement; separate supporting ideas with topic sentences/transitions; and a dynamic conclusion.
In this essay, you are expected to do the following:
1. Select two of the themes of postcolonial theory that you would like to explore. These will be the lenses through which you look at the literature. You’re more than welcome to stick to the same initial theme you chose for Essay 1 and add in a new one, or you could choose two entirely new themes to apply.
2. Describe the lenses and explain how/why they represent a promising combination. Why are they worthwhile to discuss in relationship to one another? How do they inform one another? How does the combination limit your approach in helpful, constructive, or opportune ways? Be specific.
3. Apply that lens to The Epic of Gilgamesh, The Tempest, and Heart of Darkness. This should be the bulk of your writing. How do the themes function within the story? What specific moments in the story are valuable for drawing deeper insights about the intersection between the two themes? Include balanced textual evidence, not simply general statements about the plot elements or characters. Ultimately, the analysis should answer this question: what do these three stories reveal about how these themes combine? What insight(s) can we take from the readings that apply beyond the literature?
Additional advice:
Your essay should be a postcolonial analysis, not just a character study or a general discussion of symbols in the literature. The focus on colonial relationships should not be difficult to maintain, especially as we’re tying in 20th-century literature that’s directly tied to actual colonial events. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re having trouble working through ideas or weighing your options.
As you can see in the rubric, a specific length is not part of the grading criteria, but successful essays are generally bet.

ENGL 151 Research Essay
Assignment Details
Value: 25% (additional 5% for Draft/Peer Review)
Due Date: Draft—Jun 10
Final—June 19
Length: 1500 words (does not count the references list)
Instructions
Write a 1,500 word argumentative essay in which you communicate and defend a thesis about a specific topic you have begun researching over the first four weeks of the term.
While your essay is based on your own opinion about a topic, the strength of your essay will depend on your ability to anticipate objections/questions from critical readers and address them by collecting and integrating supporting evidence from other texts. As always, I expect your argument to be thorough, well-reasoned, and concise. Don’t waste space with empty words.
Your analysis should have a strong, clear structure. As a guide, consider our standard conceptualization of essay format:
· Introduction paragraph containing (among other things) a clear thesis
· Body paragraphs discussing one aspect of the argument to support your thesis
· Conclusion paragraph that reminds readers of the thesis and major supporting ideas
Your essay must be formatted according to APA 7th edition guidelines, and you must cite both quotations and paraphrasing in APA style, which includes a References list.
Research
You must incorporate information from a minimum of five reliable and appropriate sources in your essay, at least one of which must be a scholarly article from the Camosun library database. Texts providing only general information (eg. dictionaries, encyclopedias, wikis) are not appropriate sources. Web resources from reliable sources (eg. American Medical Association, Statistics Canada) can be valuable, but extreme caution should be used when defining “reliable”. If you’re in doubt, discuss with other students and/or contact me.
Academic Honesty
Remember, plagiarism is a very serious offence. All borrowed material must be cited using APA style, and any paraphrasing must be significantly re-worded from the original material.
I expect you to limit the length of your quotations (all under 40 words long).
Essay Draft: Process and Grading
1. On Wednesday, June 10, before 12:00pm (noon), you will submit a draft of your research essay to the Essay Draft Drop Box on our D2L page. Your draft should be
· a complete essay that may lack the polish of a final draft
· fully cited in APA style, including in-text citations and a references list
· formatted in APA style (see sample on D2L)
· submitted without your name on it (don’t include it on the title page)
2. I will email you another student’s draft by 5:00pm the same day, and you will use the Peer Review Guide to give feedback on the student’s essay. The review process should only take 60 minutes max (that’s how long I give my students when we do this in class).
3. You will submit your feedback to the Peer Review Drop Box on D2L before Thursday, June 11, at 5:00pm.
The draft will be graded on a pass/fail basis. Failing to su.

PART ONE: DEMOGRAPHICS
Name of the student whose essay you reviewed:
Your Name: Daniel Placeres
PART TWO: ANALYSIS
Summarize, in three to five sentences, the overall argument being made in this essay. Share your opinion on how well you think this draft meets the assignment requirements.
INPUT: The overall argument mentions the association between bad health and low income. Daniel argues that poverty increases the risk of poor hygienic and health related issues. Mentioned, is the fact that without the proper income healthcare services are limited or not accessible to those in need.
I feel the draft does need more revision, but does meet the requirements provided to our class. I have a clear understanding of the link between poor health and poverty and believe we can make this a great paper.
PART THREE: CONTENT
Address each of the following questions, using complete sentences and specific examples when possible. Remember that you can give both positive and negative answers here to help highlight both the best aspects of the essay and address those areas that need revision.

Introductory paragraph flows, however, his argument needs to be more clear. Before mentioning his point of view on poor health care linked to political injustice, he mentions a point on education, which weakens his argument by diverting the subject. Although I believe this is the argument he was attempting to make, he then begins the body of his essay by discussing correlations between poverty, healthcare, and lifestyle (e.g., diets), which once again scatters his topic.

Instructor's Guide
Introduction To The Case
On January 28, 1986, seven astronauts were killed when the space shuttle they were piloting, the Challenger,
exploded just over a minute into the flight. The failure of the solid rocket booster O-rings to seat properly
allowed hot combustion gases to leak from the side of the booster and burn through the external fuel tank. The
failure of the O-ring was attributed to several factors, including faulty design of the solid rocket boosters,
insufficient low- temperature testing of the O-ring material and the joints that the O-ring sealed, and lack of
proper communication between different levels of NASA management.
Instructor Guidelines
Prior to class discussion, ask the students to read the student handout outside of class. In class the details of the
case can be reviewed with the aide of the overheads. Reserve about half of the class period for an open
discussion of the issues. The issues covered in the student handout include the importance of an engineer's
responsibility to public welfare, the need for this responsibility to hold precedence over any other responsibilities
the engineer might have and the responsibilities of a manager/engineer. A final point is the fact that no matter how
far removed from the public an engineer may think she is, all of her actions have potential impact. Essay #6,
"Loyalty and Professional Rights" appended at the end of the case listings in this report will be found relevant for
instructors preparing to lead class discussion on this case. In addition, essays #1 through #4 appended at the end
of the cases in this report will have relevant background information for the instructor preparing to lead
classroom discussion. Their titles are, respectively: "Ethics and Professionalism in Engineering: Why the Interest in
Engineering Ethics?;" "Basic Concepts and Methods in Ethics," "Moral Concepts and Theories," and
"Engineering Design: Literature on Social Responsibility Versus Legal Liability."
Questions for Class Discussion
1. What could NASA management have done differently?
2. What, if anything, could their subordinates have done differently?
3. What should Roger Boisjoly have done differently (if anything)? In answering this question, keep in mind
that at his age, the prospect of finding a new job if he was fired was slim. He also had a family to support.
4. What do you (the students) see as your future engineering professional responsibilities in relation to both
being loyal to management and protecting the public welfare?

Engaging Families to Support Indigenous Students’ Numeracy Development
Abstract
Indigenous children are performing poorly in mathematical skills compared to their non-indigenous counterparts in the classroom. Reasons such as unequal education opportunities and socio-economic factors have been put forward by education scholars to justify this statement. This paper will look at some of the learning and teaching strategies that can be used in Australian education to help indigenous students in improving their numeracy skills. https://yourhomeworkaide.info/2021/06/02/briefly-describe-an-organization-with-which-you-are-familiar-describe-a-situati/ The teaching and learning skills will revolve around engaging the families, improving the relationship between home and school, and bridging the cultural gap. The parents, the community and the educators have crucial roles in implementing these learning and teaching strategies.
Introduction
Numeracy skills have been an issue in the academic endeavors of many students in Australia. More so the numeracy skills are relatively poor in indigenous students compared to non-indigenous; the achievement gap between indigenous and non-indigenous widen over time and there is worrying evidence that the size of gap in recent years has been increasing (Klenowski, 2009). Indigenous people have not been recognized in the constitution therefore they are living as immigrants in their own mother land; this means they have been sidelined in national development activities, such as education, making it difficult to close the achievement gap between them and non-indigenous people.
Many people use the word numeracy interchangeably with mathematical skills, even though related, numeracy is a broad field that involves mathematical skills, problem solving and communication skills. Numeracy goes beyond the learning process that is mainly employed in a school setting; numeracy involves the understanding of quantitative techniques that are used to communicate, solve problems, respond to issues and help in the day to day undertakings. It is almost next to impossible to achieve numeracy skills without literacy.
Indigenous students have poor numeracy skills that are as a result economic, policy and pedagogical issues. The high levels of truancy and low performance can be attributed to the economic challenges that indigenous students undergo. Educational policies have not been able to provide a level playing grounds for indigenous and non-indigenous children, there has been unequal opportunities in terms of financing, tutelage and the curriculum. All these issues can be solved by engaging the parents and communities in the decision making processes on education issues especially those regarding indigenous students. https://intellectualessay.com/2021/05/08/mgmt2021-business-law-legal-systems-in-the-caribbean/

Endogenous Developments in the financial sector that led to th.docx
Endogenous Developments in the financial sector that led to the 2007-9 crisis
The financial crisis of 2007-2009 was not a typical credit crunch crisis as the ones we have seen in
the modern capitalist era. It wasn’t a crisis solely driven by the irrationality of market participants or
the result of an overvalued market system; it was in fact a much more complex phenomenon. The
development and alternations in the financial sector through the last 20 years is undoubtedly
significant. With the collapse of Keynesianism in the 1970’s and the emergence of Neoliberalism the
economy was to change page from a state-led mechanism to an autonomous factor. Although
favoured by a period of high degree market liberalisation with policies of a laissez faire doctrine, the
financial sector achieved its rapid development and expansion endogenously. Within the
frameworks of the financial system, a new set of institutions emerged to supply the excess demand
for credit without however being compliant to the typical legislative requirements of a commercial
bank; this practise of regulatory and financial arbitrage was performed by the so-called “shadow
banking system”1. Rating agencies, mainly Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s became part of this
system undermining thus their actual role as exogenous regulatory forces2. Moreover, the
construction of new financial products such as asset-backed securities and their exchange in the
over-the-counter markets was a pivotal step towards a volatile financial system that relied heavily
on mortgages handed on non-creditworthy borrowers3; the burst of this bubble system was thus
inevitable.
From the end of the 1990’s up to 2007 the banking system had created an image of euphoria,
where credit was granted with less and less collateral requirements as the demand for loans had
increased dramatically and banks found a way to instantly increase their profits. It’s worth to
mention that commercial banks for example in Greece, which today operate under a capital control
scheme, in 2006 had started issuing ‘holiday’ loans to the public4. From the beginning of the 2007
economic crisis up to 2016 the Greek central bank has recapitalized the domestic commercial banks
thrice as the country was facing the threat of bankruptcy5. In the US, the heart of the global capital
markets, the government had to step in the financial markets and through direct spending to save
financial giants, such as AIG and restore the liquidity shortage that had resulted6. The complex
nature and architecture of this new financial order was depicted by the domino-like collapse of its
branches in contrary to previous typical credit crisis, as the dotcom bubble of 2001. But what really
made this new order so complex and interdependent within its spheres?
As mentioned before, because of the widespread climate of over-optimism in society people and
firms were triggered to borrow money and designed their l.

The term scholar practitioner expresses an ideal of professional excellence grounded in theory and research,
informed by experiential knowledge, and motivated by personal values, political commitments, and ethical
conduct. Scholar practitioners are committed to the well-being of clients and colleagues, to learning new ways
of being effective, and to conceptualizing their work in relation to broader organizational, community, political,
and cultural contexts. Scholar practitioners explicitly reflect on and assess the impact of their work. Their pro-
fessional activities and the knowledge they develop are based on collaborative and relational learning through
active exchange within communities of practice and scholarship.
The scholar practitioner ideal has been analyzed from various perspectives as to the nature of skilled and
principled action ranging from adult development and higher education to epistemology and social systems.
Professional fields such as education, medicine, clinical psychology, social work, program evaluation, man-
agement, engineering, architecture, and law all have addressed this role. Each of these areas has a distinct
practice track—as teacher, scholar, health care professional, psychotherapist, social worker, evaluator, man-
ager, business consultant, engineer, architect, and lawyer. Experts in these fields possess a deep understand-
ing of subject matter and practice knowledge and, compared to novices, demonstrate effective, efficient, and
creative problem solving.
Debate across professional fields has not settled on a single specification for what a scholar practitioner
should be able to do at a practical level. Areas of competence are diverse and include depth in a discipline and
its methods for creating knowledge, educational expertise (whether as a teacher, change agent, or leader),
capacity for teamwork across fields and public and private sectors, and skilled commitment to ethical con-
duct, diversity, and a global perspective. The variety of perspectives on the topic is reflected in several related
terms and emphases such as reflective practitioner, scientist practitioner, citizen scholar, public intellectual.

Hazard Vulnerabilities Assessment Matrix
Use this matrix to identify three hazard vulnerabilities found in your community. Include a 100-word description of each hazard, your reasoning for listing the hazard, and where the hazard is located in the community.
Part 1: Identify your community (area):
Part 2: Complete the matrix.
Identified hazard
Description of hazard
How did you determine that this was a potential hazard?
Where is the hazard located in the community?
Example: Rail lines
Rail lines carry freight that could contain unknown hazardous materials in large quantities. A train derailment, car leakage, or other Hazmat incident will result in large-scale evacuations because of the proximity of rail tracks to populated areas.
Mechanical failure or other stoppage on the lines bisects the community, stranding the responders from Fire Station 1 on one side of the tracks and the hospital on the other. Similarly, the community is stranded on each side of the tracks.
There is the potential for accidents at crossing points and along tracks. In addition to vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians crossing at designated points, consider animals crossing tracks, vehicles ignoring warning signs, kids playing on tracks, and even suicide attempts.
Rail lines can pose many threats to a community. The community has expanded, and the rail lines run through highly populated areas of the city.
The close proximity to houses, schools, and intersections with numerous streets creates many risks and potential areas that can be affected by these risks.
The community assessment states that the rail lines are still operable, and though they are listed as being safe, because they are operable, the risks still exist.
The rail lines run through the northern tip of the community. The east-west direction of the tracks, which runs parallel to the river, forms a split between this northern tip and what then is the southern section of the community.
