W ritten Assignment 1: Biology and Technology in the Real World Background : This assignment will give you the opportunity to participate in ongoing scientific research. For the past several years, I have been involved in ecological research in old-growth forests in Wisconsin. In many areas the forest floor is dominated by a grasslike species, Pennsylvania sedge ( Carex pensylvanica ). The sedge may exclude other ground species by interspecific competition, which may decrease the number of species in an area, which is a main component of biodiversity. The Penn sedge "lawns" are probably caused by selective herbivory by an abundance of white-tailed deer. The deer do not like the sedge but consume most other ground plants. [Please read OLI Module 51 for information on interspecific competition & herbivory and Module 53 on biodiversity.] Another problem in the forests is that dominant trees, such as white pine and sugar maple, do not show successful reproduction to replace the old pines and maples that die, which leads to the question - does Pennsylvania sedge decrease the establishment of tree seedlings? With support from a UMUC Faculty Research Grant to create this assignment, I collected data last summer that you can use to test three hypotheses- Hypotheses A. Pennsylvania sedge inhibits regeneration of white pine B. Pennsylvania sedge inhibits regeneration of sugar maple C. Pennsylvania sedge decreases biodiversity Choice of Study Site - Practice with Google Earth: Most, if not all, students are familiar with the use of GPS (Global Positioning System) to navigate. I assume that many of you are also familiar with Google Earth, an interactive aerial map of the globe. It is a very useful tool. When we lived in Okinawa, we chose a home to rent before our 2011 move to Rhode Island by investigating the property and its environs on Google Earth, and are very happy with our choice. Google Earth can be downloaded free at earth.google.com I also make use of Google Earth in choosing study sites for my research, especially when I was searching for remaining old-growth white pine forests in Upper Michigan. For practice with this relatively-new technology, I have included an exercise involving Google Earth with this assignment (under "Report" below). Methods of Data Collection Data were collected during 2-4 August 2013 in a study plot within a forest dominated by trees of sugar maple, red oak, and red maple at Trout Lake Cathedral Point, Vilas County, Wisconsin (Figure 1). All ground species were identified in 2- x 2-meter quadrats that were positioned as a strip of adjacent quadrats in transects of adjacent across the plot. In ecology, a quadrat is defined as a sample area and a transect is a sample line. Figures 2 and 3 illustrate the method of transects of continuous quadrats. Within each of the sample quadrats, the percent cover of Penn sedge was estimated and all established tree seedlings (defined as > 20 cm in .

Writing a First Draft General Organization of an Argument | General Organization of the Course Project | What to Include in the Introduction | Body Section I | Acknowledge the Opposing View | Using American Psychological Association (APA) Documentation Style For the remainder of the course, we will focus on drafting and refining your paper; that effort begins with the draft you’ll write this week. By now you’ve conducted library and Internet research for information to support your topic. You’ve read a variety of sources of research. You’ve also written assignments over the past few weeks that contain material that you can incorporate into the draft. Now you will combine the components into the paragraphs and pages of your project. This week, you’ll plan your Course Project and write the first two sections. How do you get there? It’s not as difficult as you might think. General Organization of an Argument Back to Top If you’ve ever watched a courtroom scene, you’re familiar with the basic organization that is used to persuade an audience using an argument. One side introduces an issue, usually with background information. The opposing argument is stated and then taken apart point by point to create reasonable doubt. The audience is then presented with the main argument. The main argument is presented logically so that the audience can easily follow. This means that one section is presented at a time, each one supported by reasonable evidence from experts, witnesses, or personal testimony. The argument ends with a conclusion asserting the final persuasive points that are left to the audience to make a conclusion about. Similarly the Course Project will have a recognizable structure. General Organization of the Course Project Back to Top The Course Project consists of the following sections. Introduction Attention-getting hook Topic, purpose, and thesis Background Relevance to reader Body Logically presented, point-by-point argument with evidence (the number of sections may differ by paper, but you should plan to have at least two sections) Section 1 (2–5 paragraphs) Section 2 (2–5 paragraphs) Section 3 (2–5 paragraphs) Section 4 (2–5 paragraphs) Section 5 (2–5 paragraphs) Conclusion Each section has a distinct focus. Introduction and Background Engages the audience; identifies the topic, purpose, and thesis, and previews for the reader how the papers will be organized. Body Divides into sections that logically present the point-by-point argument with evidence; developed with two to five major sections with two to five paragraphs each. Conclusion Summarizes without repeating information and includes a call for action that outlines how the reader might think or act differently. The first draft, due this week, will provide the introduction and one section of the body of the paper. What to Include in the Introduction Back to Top The introduction contains the following elements. Attention-getting hook Topic, purpos.

Writing Assignment #2: Supreme Court Decision In this assignment, you will be a Supreme Court Justice deciding on a Fourth Amendment case. Carefully read about the case in question, the summaries of related Supreme Court decisions, and directions for the assignment. The Case “Doe v. City of Intrusia”: Trouble was brewing in the small, quiet city of Intrusia. Someone was selling methamphetamine to the local teenagers and a popular football player died after an overdose. The community was panicked and demanded that the police find the source of the meth and shut it down immediately. The police suspected that 20 year old Joe Doe was selling the meth but they didn’t have much evidence. The state prosecutor advised the police department to talk with the local cell phone carrier about “cloning” Mr. Doe’s phone. The cell phone carrier created a “clone” phone which allowed the police to read text messages sent and received by Mr. Doe. In no time the police had evidence implicating Mr. Doe as a dealer and the location of the meth lab. Mr. Doe was convicted and the meth lab was closed. Mr. Doe is appealing his conviction, claiming that the interception of text messages violated the unreasonable search and seizure protections of the Fourth Amendment. Furthermore, all evidence from the text messages should have been excluded from his trial. The City of Intrusia argues that there was no physical intrusion into Mr. Doe’s space and that police were acting quickly in order to uphold their duty to protect the community’s safety. Background: In Silverman v. United States the Supreme Court held that that the Fourth Amendment does not protect conversations, therefore wiretapping does not constitute a search and seizure. The case was reversed in Katz v. United States, when Justice Harlan proposed a two pronged test of whether public actions should be considered private and therefore protected. 1) Has the person exhibited an expectation of privacy? and 2) is the expectation of privacy one that society is prepared to recognize as 'reasonable.'? In more recent decisions, the Supreme Court has found that society is not prepared to extend privacy rights to bank customers regarding their bank statements and that society was not prepared to recognize a privacy right-to grow a backyard crop of marijuana. The Questions: · Does the Fourth Amendment protect text messages sent over a cell phone? · Is there a “reasonable expectation of privacy” when texts are sent? o Did Mr. Doe exhibit an expectation of privacy when he sent the texts? o Is there a societal expectation of privacy in the process of text messaging? Related Supreme Court Decisions (each case is linked to a short description on Oyez.com): Court Case Question Olmstead v. United States (1928) Did the use of evidence disclosed in wiretapped private telephone conversations; violate the recorded party’s Fourth and Fifth Amendments? Katz v. United States (1967) Does the Fourth Amendment protec.
