Module 2: Discussion - Refine Thesis Sentence for Research Project Research Project : Diversity in Children Literature Note from professor that its missing revised thesis plus check MLA format Original File Attached. Purpose You have been working on your research project for a few weeks now. You began with a tentative thesis sentence on a chosen research topic, and then you conducted research on that topic and created an annotated bibliography of the sources you found. Now, it is time to refine your thesis sentence for your research project. Taking time to review what your research says and using that information to refine your thesis will provide you with a strong and focused thesis sentence for your research project. Directions · Refer back to your tentative thesis sentence; think about the information you found while conducting your research on your research topic; then, revise your thesis sentence so it reflects your research. Make sure you thesis sentence includes the topic of your research, your claim about that topic, and a list of the main ideas you will use to support/prove that claim. For example: · · EXAMPLE · My Tentative Thesis: Children in the 1800s developed biases for cultural, social and religious differences as they read or were exposed to literature adults read that had been written during that era. (NOTE: After researching my tentative thesis, I discovered that my original ideas were very general and my researching efforts produced too many resources, so I narrowed my research to focus on the cultural, social and religious differences within the Appalachian people.) New Thesis Ideas Based on Research: Topic: Literature written about how religious cults impacted Appalachia people during the 1800s Claim: Child readers were influenced since they often read or were exposed to what adults read Main Ideas: Religious cults created disturbing customs, cultural beliefs and social behaviors in Appalachian communities Revised Thesis Example: In the 1800s, young readers became skeptical of Appalachian people after reading about disturbing customs, cultural beliefs, and social behaviors that religious cults created by capitalizing on uneducated and culturally backward mentalities. .

Writing Assignment: Annotated Bibliography (AB) Due Dates (by 11:59PM): Rubin AB entry: 1/30 AB Draft (3 entries): 2/25 OPTIONAL: AB Final Draft (5 entries): 3/ 10 AB Revised Draft: 3/17 Mechanics: 6 page minimum (including 5 AB entries and a Literature Review with CRQ), double-spaced, 12 point, 1” margins, MLA (or other) format Explanation Annotated Bibliography is a genre of writing in academia that works to show your awareness of what others have written about a topic. The work done in an AB, including introducing the authors with brief intellectual biographies; explicating the main claims and concepts; tracing the argument and its evidence; evaluating the source; and discussing its stakes and implications gives some context to the course reading you choose to research and situates the course reading into a research topic by indicating the intellectual conversations you are entering. The point of this assignment is to practice research skills but also to dig a little deeper into 4 of our readings using research. For this assignment:Writing Task 1. Compile an Annotated Bibliographyof five scholarly sources, including one entry for Gayle Rubin’s “Thinking Sex” and 4 more scholarly sources based on researching sources that are connected to one (the deep dive) or more of our course readings. See the next page for the specific AB entry format. · Sources · “Scholarly” means peer-reviewed articles from academic journals or chapters in books written by experts in a field and not wikis, encyclopedias, newspapers, popular magazines/media, blogs, websites, etc. (see the Library Guide on what constitutes a scholarly source). · “Connected” means that each of your researched, scholarly sources must be connection to a course reading in some way. You can either find a source that engages or discusses the particular critical essay or cultural text from the course calendar or you can do research on a topic or theme that is brought up in or similar to the course reading. Whatever you decide, you’ll explain the connection in your quote analysis. · “Deep Dive” means you may also include more than one researched source per course text. You can, for instance, research two sources on a critical essay and two on a cultural text or even include 4 sources that are all about one essay or text to give some in-depth engagement with one course reading. Alternatively, you may also include 4 sources on 4 different course texts. · Focus · If you’d like, you canfocus your research within a broad topic, on a field of knowledge, or on a really specific object of analysis within that topic. For example, you can produce an AB based on a specific topic (like racialized hypersexuality, the sex/gender/desire matrix, or a particular sexual stereotype) or a specific discipline (for instance, focus on the sociology of sex) or an interdisciplinary one that pursues a critical research question through multiple fields of knowledge (for instance, focused on how sociology, cult.

· Due: Sat. Sep. · Format : Typed, double-spaced, submitted as a word-processing document. 12 point, text-weight font, 1-inch margins. · · Length : 850 - 1000 words (approx. 3-4 pages) · · Overview : In Unit 1 and Unit 2, we focused on ways that writers build ideas from personal memories and experiences into interesting narratives that convey significance and meaning to new audiences. In Unit 3, we have been discussing how writers invent ideas by interacting with other communities through firsthand observation and description. These relationships and discoveries can give writers insight into larger concepts or ideas that are valuable to specific communities. For this writing project, you will use firsthand observations and discoveries to write about people and the issues that are important to them. Your evidence will come from the details you observe as you investigate other people, places, and events. Assignment Write an ethnography essay focused on a particular group of people and the routines or practices that best reveal their unique significance as a group. An ethnography is a written description of a particular cultural group or community. For the ethnography essay, you can follow the guidelines in the CEL, p. 110-112. Your ethnography should: · Begin with your observations of a particular group. Plan to observe this group 2-3 times, so that you can get a better sense of their routines, habits, and practices. o Note: if you cannot travel to observe a group or community, plan to observe that community digitally through website documents, social media, and/or emails exchanged with group members. · Convey insight into the characteristics that give the group unique significance. · Provide context and background, including location, values, beliefs, histories, rituals, dialogue, and any other details that help convey the group's significance. · Follow a deliberate organizational pattern that focuses on one or more insights about the group while also providing details and information about the group's culture and routine As you look back over your observations and notes, remember that your essay should do more than simply relate details without any larger significance. Ethnographies also draw out the unique, interesting, and special qualities of a group or culture that help readers connect to their values or motivations. Note: Please keep in mind that writing in this class is public, and anything you write about may be shared with other students and instructors. Please only write about details that you are comfortable making public within our classroom community. Assignment Components In order to finish this project, we will work on the following parts together over the next few weeks: Draft : Include at least one pre-revised draft of your essay. The draft needs to meet the word count of 850 words and must also apply formatting requirements for the project—in other words it must be complete. Make sure that your.

Assignment Marking Criteria and Feedback Strengths of this assignment and how it might be improved: Your introduction is not terribly relevant. You would do better to keep it simple and signpost the reader. Your analysis begins with a generic description of the problems associated with intangibility. Remember that this assignment is about the application of theory rather than description. The remainder of your analysis highlights some of the issues in the case study. However, there is no application of theory. You could have used any one of a number of frameworks to frame your analysis and give it greater depth: Servuction model, Flower of Service, Gaps model, etc. Furthermore, I would like to see you explain the reasons for these problems. In this case study, the lack of service culture is a significant issue. With regard to recommendations, it would again be better if you approach the task in a more systematic way rather than making random suggestions with no indication as to which problems these activities will resolve. For example, are testimonials a priority? Given that the service being offered is poor, there may not be many customers with anything positive to say. Wouldn’t it be better to fix underlying issues first? You recommend personal selling and communications but there is a lack of detail and no explanation as to what problems these activities would address. You recommend that the company needs to act on the feedback it receives (page 6), but you do not say how. Similarly, recommendations like personalised service might be relevant but you do not say what this means in practice. Overall, there is a lack of application of theory to this response. You need to look back over the lecture slides and use appropriate models to frame your analysis and recommendations. While what you write is sound, it does not directly address the case study. There is insufficient detail. Very limited reference list (because of the lack of theory in the response). Remember that references should be in alphabetical order. assessment brief Module Title: Marketing Services Submission Deadline: Tuesday 12th July 2019 Assessment Component Coursework (RESIT) Assessment Weighting: 50 per cent of total module mark Marking and feedback deadline (20 working days) 13th August 2019 Assessment Instructions This is an individual case-based assignment that requires you to answer a question in relation to the case study below: ‘Best Car Hire’.

Assignment: Leadership and Strategic Planning In this assignment, you consider how leaders can engage in a strategic planning process with stakeholders to develop a plan to guide the organization’s evolution and development for the long-term. Since strategic planning should engage persons who will be affected by an organization’s decisions (e.g., staff, administration, board members, members of the community), it is important to include key stakeholders in the planning process so that it reflects their perspectives and interests. For this Assignment, think about how you would begin the strategic planning process for a human services organization. Consider the human services organizations for which you have worked either in your fieldwork or as an employee. Based on what you know about a particular organization, what steps might you take to establish a plan for the organization’s long-term development? Assignment (600 - word in APA format): - Describe the first three steps you would take to begin the strategic planning process for a human services organization. - Define the key stakeholders—who should be involved in each step and why they need to be included in the process. - Include steps you would take to establish stakeholder support and confidence. Note: Although you will base your strategic plan on what you know about an actual organization, do not include any identifying information about the organization or its stakeholders.

Assignment: Lab Assignment: Assessing the Genitalia and Rectum Photo Credit: Getty Images Patients are frequently uncomfortable discussing with healthcare professional’s issues that involve the genitalia and rectum; however, gathering an adequate history and properly conducting a physical exam are vital. Examining case studies of genital and rectal abnormalities can help prepare advanced practice nurses to accurately assess patients with problems in these areas. In this Lab Assignment, you will analyze an Episodic note case study that describes abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting. You will consider what history should be collected from the patients, as well as which physical exams and diagnostic tests should be conducted. You will also formulate a differential diagnosis with several possible conditions. To Prepare Review the Episodic note case study your instructor provides you for this week’s Assignment. Please see the “Course Announcements” section of the classroom for your Episodic note case study. Based on the Episodic note case study: Review this week’s Learning Resources, and consider the insights they provide about the case study. Refer to Chapter 3 of the Sullivan resource to guide you as you complete your Lab Assignment. Search the Walden library or the Internet for evidence-based resources to support your answers to the questions provided. Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study. Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more information about the patient’s condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis? Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient. The Lab Assignment Using evidence-based resources from your search, answer the following questions and support your answers using current evidence from the literature. Analyze the subjective portion of the note. List additional information that should be included in the documentation. Analyze the objective portion of the note. List additional information that should be included in the documentation. Is the assessment supported by the subjective and objective information? Why or why not? Would diagnostics be appropriate for this case, and how would the results be used to make a diagnosis? Would you reject/accept the current diagnosis? Why or why not? Identify three possible conditions that may be considered as a differential diagnosis for this patient. Explain your reasoning using at least three different references from current evidence-based literature. In this Lab Assignment, you will analyze an Episodic note case study that describes abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.

Assignment: Journal Entry – Media and Sexism Many marketing efforts perpetuate the gender stereotypes that are steeped in our culture. Two examples at attempts to maintain these stereotypes through advertising are the Bic Critsal For Her and the Easy Bake Oven. These two conceivably innocuous items triggered a flood of articles, petitions, and videos, denouncing their perceived underlying messages. The first controversy that erupted surrounded the Bic Cristal For Her pen. This pen was created and packaged specifically for women to use. Several groups lashed out at Bic, calling their attempt to target women with "lady pens" sexist and demeaning. Its detractors felt the campaign was degrading and fed into stereotypes by highlighting the thin design and the use of pastel colors. The negative press was overwhelming, although the pens have remained on the market. Consumers also targeted those responsible for marketing the Easy Bake Oven by sending a petition asking its parent company Hasbro to make the ovens in colors other than pink and purple. Thousands of individuals signed the petition asking for alternative oven colors after a teenage girl from New Jersey was angered that her younger brother would have no other option but to use an oven in the colors that are considered stereotypically female. It was argued that the colors supported the stereotypical view that only young girls would want to bake. The signers of the petition felt that young boys who might want to use the toy would be more likely to practice their baking skills if the color of the oven was gender neutral. Consider these two stories and think about your own reactions to the responses to the advertising and merchandising of these items. To prepare: View the assigned resources and reflect on your experience with gender. Submit a 2- to 4- page paper, in which you: Identify specific messages about gender presented in the mass media. Discuss messages about gender you have received from your family or cultural group. Analyze how these messages have influenced your experience with gender. Explain how you might address issues related to sexism in the mass media and diverse cultural beliefs about gender and gender roles in your social work practice.

Assignment is due by 6:00 PM Eastern Time (about 8 hours from now) Assignment Task : You are to write a 150 words email. Detail on an aspect(s) of the unit that personally surprised you, changed your thinking and how will you use it in your professional writing . Your reflection should not be an academic rephrasing! It is a reflection. Your e mail must be professional and not overly casual. How to Write a Reflection Writing a reflection is multifaceted. The writer needs to do so much before writing, and in the moment of the writing (and editing), the author must stay on track to his/her focus while giving plenty of detail for the reader to FEEL the message. It’s as much about thinking and thinking about thinking as it is to feeling. Reflection is a combination of cognition, emotion, and body sensations. Here is an approach to help you reflect well. Not only will you learn the information, but the process of reflection actually boosts the brain’s ability to make decisions. 1. Using a quiet mind and a quiet environment, be quiet and listen to your thoughts. Reflection is quiet. 2. Step One is Critical Thinking : Ask questions like… What did I learn that I expected? What did I learn that I didn’t expect? How am I changed? What will I do with this information? How will I influence others with this information? 3. Step Two: Examine your own thinking . How was I thinking that? What was I thinking? Why? What were my biases, assumptions, etc? 4. Step Four (We skip gathering information.): After confidence to your learning based on the content covered, decide a writing core – a focus. 5. Write in first person. Write with depth – no surface only comments. Write with specificity. What exactly did you learn and what will you do with that new you? .
