Writing an Essay for each with a thesis answering the question. Themajor task of “doing” history involves reading a variety of materials, forming opinions about that material, then writing or otherwise presenting this information within a well-constructed analytical framework. For this exam you will “do” history by drawing on relevant course materials as evidence to support your arguments. For each question, you should write a coherent, well-argued essay, in which you state clearly a thesis that answers the question posed; present arguments explaining and supporting your thesis; and discuss specific historical evidence that supports your arguments. Be as specific as possible in answering the question and in supporting your thesis. The thesis you choose to argue will not be the only possible answer to the question, nor need you address all possible answers. Instead, choose the answer that you find most convincing and select evidence that supports that view. Evidence drawn from primary sources (texts written, or objects created, in the time period of the events you are discussing) will be particularly convincing. Please keep the use of quotes to a minimum—put things in your own words (I want your ideas and conclusions, not the authors’). What I am looking for is your ability to synthesize and analyze a variety of sources to develop and support an argument. Don’t worry if you’re not sure you’re doing it “right”, critical thinking and analysis take practice, and that’s why you’re taking classes. Each essay should be typed double-spaced with 1 inch margins and 12 font (no “cute” fonts), and be structured properly. There is no minimum or maximum length for each essay, just make sure you answer the questions thoroughly. Part 1: Over the course of about 1800 years the foundations for Western Civilization were lain in the Mediterranean basin, the “cultural hearth” of the West, from about 1200 BCE to about 500 CE: that is, from about the time of the events memorialized as the Trojan War and the Exodus to the end of antiquity and the end of the Western Roman Empire. · Explain the contributions of the Hebrews, Greeks, and Romans to the evolution of Western Civilization, how the cultural values of each affected the others, and the legacy of each to Western Civilization. · Helpful hint: There is more to the Hebrews than monotheism Part 2: Everyone answer this question (50 points): How and why did Christianity transition from a minor Jewish sect into a world religion? What did Christianity mean for the Roman Empire and the soon to emerge Europe? · Please keep in mind that we are considering Christianity from a historical perspective. Part 3: Select and answer ONE of the following (25 points): 1. Describe the geographic framework in which early Western civilizations emerged and developed. What role did geography and climate play in shaping the course of Western civilization from its origins to about 500 CE? o Helpful hint: the timeframe in ques.

Essays should have a clear argument supported by evidence from the readings (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B3D5tcB4swW_WmVTeXF4LVdWWVE?usp=sharing ). While it is fine to state your personal opinion on these questions, please be sure that you support your opinion with historical evidence. The best answers will have an argument and will be very detailed. The answer should have a beginning, middle and an end, and will probably be 400 words. 1. What role does the West play in shaping modern East Asia? How does this role change over time (if it does change). In your opinion is the role of the West a net positive or a net negative? Why? 2. What are the merits and demerits of the Champion of the East and the Gentleman of Western Learning’s arguments in Discourse of Three Drunkards on Government. Which view do you support? Why? 3. What is the nature of nationalism in the Japanese and Chinese contexts? What does it stem from? How do nationalistic sentiments change in the first three decades of the twentieth century in East Asia? 4. Describe the changes in Japan-Chinese relations over time beginning in 1895 up through 1937. In what ways do relations change? What factors force them to change? 5. By the 1920s, Japan had already become an important world power, while China remained mired in warlord politics and political factionalism. How do you account for the differences in China and Japan? What factors helped facilitate Japan’s “rise”? 6. Evaluate the arguments made by Japanese leaders regarding Pan Asianism from the early 20th century up through the creation of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. What was attractive about these sentiments for many people in East Asia? How do you yourself feel about the way the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere was portrayed? 7. How did Chiang Kaishek rise to prominence in China in the 1920s? What was the legitimacy of Chiang Kaishek’s Nationalist government based upon? How do the campaigns against the Chinese Communist Party fit into this? 8. How do you view Wang Jingwei? Was he a collaborator as he is commonly portrayed in China or is he a patriot whose reputation has been slandered since the end of the war? To answer this question, you must address the differences between collaborators and resisters in the wartime period. What constitutes these two categories? What problems are there in using these two turns of phrase? 9. Scholars have suggested that the Pacific War between Japan and the United States was inevitable, but there is a considerable amount of disagreement about when it became inevitable. What single point do you consider to be the “point of no return” for the outbreak of the war? Please note in your response at least two other potential points and explain why you did not choose them.

Finally, Sarah thought. J.P. Offutt, the CEO, had named a time when they could meet. Sarah was a director of the company that J.P. ran, a Florida-based shopping-center-development group, and she was devoted to both him and his firm. But board meetings had been tense recently, and J.P. had grown distant. In Sarah’s opinion, the problem was obvious: Sid Yerby, the CFO. Despite Sarah’s repeated requests for comprehensive financial statements, he continued to come to board meetings with a mere two pages of analysis that lacked any explanation. How could she or any of the other directors provide fiscal oversight without access to details of the company’s operations or accounting? Increasingly, however, hers seemed to be the minority view, and she was starting to feel isolated. Some months back, J.P. had told her privately that he appreciated her persistence with Sid. The young and inexperienced CEO confessed that he often felt uncomforta.

Journal of Transformative Education , 1 (1), 58-63. Annotation Example In this article, Mezirow (2003) makes a distinction between "instrumental" and "communicative" learning. "Instrumental learning" refers to those processes which measure and gauge learning, such as tests, grades, comments, quizzes, attendance records and the like. "Communicative learning," on the other hand, refers to understanding created over time between individuals in what Mezirow calls "critical-dialectical-discourse," (p. 59) which is a fancy way of saying, important conversation between 2 or more speakers. Another key idea Mezirow discusses is "transformative learning," (p. 61) which changes the mind, the heart, the values and beliefs of people so that they may act better in the world. Mezirow argues that "hungry, desperate, homeless, sick, destitute, and intimidated people obviously cannot participate fully and freely in discourse" (p. 59). On the one hand, he is right: there are some people who cannot fully engage because their crisis is so long and deep, they are prevented. But, I don't think Mezirow should make the blanket assumption that everyone in unfortunate circumstances is incapable of entering the discourse meaningfully. One thing is certain: if we gave as much attention to the non-instrumental forms of intelligence--like goodness, compassion, forgiveness, wonder, self-motivation, creativity, humor, love, and other non-measured forms of intelligence in our school curriculums, we'd see better people, actors in the world, and interested investigators than we currently have graduating high school.

Choose a source of media information written about a health policy issue; you can use any form of media discussed this week in the classroom theory. Critique the information using criteria presented in determining an unbiased source. Please use APA format and at least 200 words, no source less than 5 years old Media Tools The use of media to influence policy and politics in any environment is familiar in today’s society. The shift from radio, film, and television to social media has had significant impact on political campaigns and advancing policy and agendas with the public and policy makers. Health promotion is portrayed by the media to consumers in 3 ways: Public education; Social marketing; and Media advocacy. What is the best use of media for promoting health and advocating for the development of policy and effective politics in healthcare? Nurses are experts at vetting for appropriate use of media to deliver their messages in healthcare. Nurses solicit unbiased information which can be used for taking political stands on policy issues. A comprehensive assessment is required of media sources using the same principles for determining quality of patient education materials. Prior to taking a stand based upon particular information on a policy issue, one must ask the following: What is the medium for the delivery of the message? Is it a credible site? Who is sending the message? Why? What is the message, and what rhetoric is used? Is there a “spin doctor” behind the scene? Is the message effective in the presentation? and Is the message accurate? (Mason et al., 2016, p.132-134) Opinion editorials (op eds.), talk radio, and blogs are methods which can be used to communicate responses to media generated information. Resources are available on effective steps to approach in communicating one’s response to a media outlet for influencing a public agenda. Box 12-3 outlines Guidelines for Getting Your Message Across and Using Social Media . Communication and Health Policy and Politics Communication, both verbal and nonverbal, is vital to successful influence for advancing policy initiatives. Persuasion is a powerful activity, which is most effective with savvy communication skills. Some skills nursing professionals can apply to improve communication effectiveness in person include: First impressions; Attire; Making conversation; Etiquette; Networking in person; Business cards; and Brief biography (Mason et al., 2016). Nonverbal communication occurs through our physical demeanor and includes body language and nonverbal cues such as eye contact and body position. The phases of conversation are outlined in Mason et al.(2016), p. 95. These phases are critical to understand for successful communication and impacting health policy and politics. Alternative Dispute Resolution During conflict, appropriate communication skills are very important in trying to achieve peaceful resolution of the inherent issues at hand..
