REVIEW PAPER GUIDELINES (3 pages,
Essay format) Introduction
Plot
What happens?
E.g., “Mother Courage follows the misadventures of Courage and her children over a ten year period during the 100 Years War...”
How does it happen?
E.g., “The play is built in a series of episodes, alternating personal struggles against a backdrop of the larger social/political struggles.”
What does it mean?
A one-two sentence that captures the essence of the action. In the case of Epic Theatre, this statement is primarily about the intended “lesson” of the play. E.g., “MC is about how capitalism inevitably leads to the corruption then destruction of society—from nations to families.”
Rhythm
Flow of the plots?
Character
Main character Description
E.g., “Courage is a middle-aged mother of three who will stop at nothing to exploit the financial opportunities she encounters. Her role in the play is ‘survivor.’ Her character is the ‘anti-mom’—a woman who sees her children (and other human beings) as a collection of debits and credits.”
Second Character Description
Thought—what are the ideas in the play
e.g., Mother Courage looks at the intersection of war and commerce and how one feeds off the other, to the destruction of land, civilization, and families. The ideas arise out of the work of Karl Marx. Summarize--
Historical (Where and When) Philosophical (What & Why)
Diction--
Summarize the language the playwright uses. How do the characters speak?
E.g., prose, poetry, cliché, long speeches, short, etc.?
7 of 8
Music—
is more than song, but the SOUND of the play. Describe the aural environment created and executed in the production.
Spectacle
—describe the visual environment of light and scenery created for the production, and their execution and relevance (e.g., it could look great but mean nothing, or it could look terrible but somehow it works!)
Conclusion
A paragraph about your particular feelings about the play—did it engage you? Were you changed, even a little? Goethe asked three questions—What was it trying to do? How well was it done? Was it worth doing? Answer these questions.

Section C
Please write your essay in the blue book.
Write an informal narrative about "some" composing process of yours. Essentially, you will write a Reflective Self-Evaluation of yourself as a college writer. What exactly does that mean? It requires you to:
a. look back over a recently completed process
b. think reflectively about that process
c. critically evaluate what went well, what didn’t go well, or what you might have done differently
As the aforementioned examples suggest, reflective writing is writing that describes, explains, interprets, and evaluates any past performance, action, belief, feeling, or experience. To reflect is to turn or look back, to reconsider something in the past from the perspective of the present. So, in your final essay, you will reflect and make an evaluation of your experience in this course.
Remember, reflection involves multiple angles of vision. Just as light waves are thrown or bent back from the surface of a mirror, so, too, reflective writing throws our experience, action, or performance back to us, allowing us to see differently. We view the past from the angle of the present, what was from the angle of what could have been or what might be. Multiplying your angle of vision through reflection often yields new insights and more complicated (complex) understanding of the issue on which you are reflecting.
Professors generally look for four kinds of knowledge in reflective self-evaluation essays: self-knowledge, content knowledge, rhetorical knowledge, and critical knowledge (aka judgment). Following are ideas for each of these types of knowledge, which may be used to generate ideas for your essay. Choose only a few of the questions to respond to, questions that allow you to explain and demonstrate your most important learning for the course.
You may write about your composing process for academic papers or creative genres or a combination of both. Reflect as thoroughly as possible upon your writing process and explain it. Your narrative should include whatever you DO when you write, as well as whatever you DO when you compose. Composing should be understood in the broad sense, i.e. composing goes on in your mind when you are cleaning your refrigerator, mowing your grass, etc. It also occurs when you are researching, taking notes, or procrastinating. In essence you are NEVER NOT composing something. So the key to your reflections is to include everything you do that makes a difference in your writing, from having to use a certain pen, to listening to music or sitting in the library. Both your formal and informal processes impact the way you produce a written work, if you use a formal method of note taking or outlining, if you compose on the computer or with pen and paper explore any and all of these activities that are helpful to you in your process. Explore all possible aspects that apply. This is a useful exercise for now and for you to revisit and revise in the future .

Course Expectations
Course Activities and
Experiences:
Students are expected to:
• Review any assigned reading material,
4. complementary materials, and weekly lectures and
prepare
responses to homework assigned.
• Actively participate in activities, assignments,
and discussions.
• Evaluate and react to each other’s work in a
supportive, constructive manner.

Academic Integrity: At a Christian liberal arts
university committed to the pursuit of truth
and understanding, any act of academic
dishonesty is especially distressing and cannot be
tolerated. In general, academic dishonesty
involves the
abuse and misuse of information or people to
gain an undeserved academic advantage or
evaluation. The
2
common forms of academic dishonesty include:
• Cheating – using deception in the taking of
tests or the preparation of written work,
using unauthorized
materials, copying another person’s work with or without
consent, or assisting another in such activities.
• Lying – falsifying, fabricating, or forging
5. information in either written, spoken, or
video presentations.
• Plagiarism—using the published writings, data,
interpretations, or ideasof another without proper
documentation
Plagiarism includes copying and pasting material
from the internet into assignments without
properly
citing the source of the material.
Episodes of academic dishonesty are reported to
the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The
potential
penalty for academic dishonesty includes a failing
grade on a particular assignment, a failing
grade for the
entire course, or charges against the student
with the appropriate disciplinary body.
Attendance Policy: When any student
has exceeded 20% of the time prescribed for
any class, that student will be automatically
dropped from that particular class with the grade of
“F.” This grade is placed on the official
transcript of the
student and is treated as a failing grade in
calculating the grade pointaverage. The
definition of a class
absence is a student’s failure to attend class
for any reason. Instructors may count three
times tardyor
leaving earlyto be equal to one class absence.
6. There are no excused absences, regardless of
the reason for
the class having been missed. However, faculty will
make reasonable provisions to allow
students to make up
work if the absence is due to a university-
sponsored function or a medical or family
emergency that is
documented in a timely manner. Allowance
for students to make up work for otherreasons
is at each
instructor’s discretion. A class absence does not
excuse the student from being responsible
for course work
missed; the student is responsible for contacting
the faculty member in order to make up
class assignments.
The Vice President for Academic Affairs is the
authorized agent to consider any exceptions
to the above
regulations. (Undergraduate Catalog)
ResidencyAttendance: Each student must be in
attendance for the entire duration of the
required residency
weekend. Late arrivals and/or earlydepartures
are not permitted. Punctuality is important as
each student
is required to have the documented in-seat time
per USCIS regulations. If a student is
not in attendance for
the full session, he/she will be counted absent
for the entire session, and receive an
automatic “F” and will
be required to pay the $300.00 make-up fee and
attend a residency make-up session.
7. Disability
Accommodations:
University of the Cumberlands accepts students
with certified disabilities and provides reasonable
accommodations for their certified needs in the
classroom, in housing, in food service or in
otherareas. For
accommodations to be awarded, a student must
submit a completedAccommodations Application
form and
provide documentation of the disability to the
Disability Services Coordinator (Mr. Jacob Ratliff,
Boswell
Campus Center, Student Services Office Suite,
[email protected]). When all paperwork is on
file, a meeting between the student and the
Coordinator will be arranged to discuss
possible
accommodations before accommodations are
formally approved. Students must then meet with the
Coordinator at the beginning of each semester before
any academic accommodations can be certified
for
that term. Certifications for otheraccommodations
are normally reviewed annually.
Student
Responsibilities:
• The only authorized electronic means of
academic, administrative, and co-curricular
communication
8. between University of the Cumberlands and its
students is through the UCumberlands email
system (i.e.
Webmail). Each student is responsible for
monitoring his/her University email account
frequently. This
is the primary email account used to correspond
with you directly by the University; imperative
program
information is sent to this email account
specifically from campus and program office.
• Students should check for e-mail and class
announcements using iLearn (primary) and
University of the
Cumberlands webmail (secondary).
• Students are expected to find out class assignments
for missed classes and make up missed
work.
• Students are expected to find out if any changes
have been made in the class or assignment
schedule.
• Written work must be presented in a professional
manner. Work that is not
submitted in a professional manner will not be
evaluated and will be returned as unacceptable.
o There is a craft to writing. Spelling,
grammar, punctuation and diction (word usage)
are all
tools of that craft. Writing at the collegiate
level will showcareful attention to these
elements of craft. Work that does not exhibit
9. care with regard to theseelements will be
considered as inadequate for college writing
and graded accordingly.
• Students are expected to take the examinations on
the designated dates. If you are unable
to take the
exam on the scheduled date and know in
advance, you are to make arrangements with
your professor
3
before the designated date. If you miss the
exam, you must have a legitimate reason as
determined by
your professor.
Deadlines and Dues
Dates:
Recognizing that a largepart of professional life is
meeting deadlines, it is necessary to develop
time
management and organizational skills. Failure to
meet the course deadlines may result in
penalties. Keepin
mind that all deadlines are set using Eastern
Standard Time(EST). Late assignments will NOT be
accepted.
Writing Expectations: Learning outcomes for candidates’
writing competencies include clarity of
thought, discernment in planning
10. and organization, and integration of evidence and
criteria.
• The instructor expects that students will have
knowledge of appropriate forms of
documentation
and use it where appropriate. APA format is
required and style of notation to credit all
sources
that are not your own.
• There is a craft to writing. Spelling,
grammar, punctuation and diction (word usage)
are all tools
of that craft. Writing at the collegiate level
will showcareful attention to theseelements of
craft.
Work that does not exhibit care with regard to
theseelements will be considered as inadequate
for college writing and graded accordingly.
• All assignments, unless otherwise instructed, should
be submitted in APA format.
Participation Policy: Study after study
has linked successfulacademic performance with
good class participation. Those who
assume positions of responsibility must “show up” in
order to be effective. Therefore,
students are expected
to actively participate in intelligentdiscussion of
assigned topics in all areas(Discussion Board
Activities,
Synchronous Sessions, Forums, Shared Papers, etc.) to
11. help process course material and/or to
demonstrate
understanding of course content. Point adjustments
will be taken for non-participation.
Academic Appeals: Both undergraduate and graduate
students have the right to challenge a grade. If
discussions with the course
instructor and department chairdo not lead to a
satisfactory conclusion, students may file a
formal written
appeal with the Vice President for Academic Affairs,
who will forward the appeal to the chairof
the
Academic Appeals Committee. This formal written
appeal must be filed by the end of the 4th
weekof classes
in the next regular term following the term in which
the course in question was taken. The
Academic Appeals
Committee then gathers information from the student,
the instructor, and any otherrelevant parties.
The
Committee will deliver its recommendation on
the complaint to the Vice President for Academic
Affairs.
After reviewing this recommendation and concurring
or amending it, the Vice President for Academic
Affairs
will inform the student and instructor of the
disposition of the complaint no later than the
last day of classes
of the term in which the complaint was filed.
Records of all actions regarding academic grade
appeals,
including their final disposition, are maintained by
12. the Vice President for Academic Affairs and the
Academic
Appeals Committee. (Undergraduate Catalog/Graduate

Discussion 1 :
In the current setting, technology and communication undergo
constant transformation considering the integration of the
internet and other social media platform. Information delivery
involves a process of presenting data to the audience target.
Therefore, satiating the needs of the recipients requires
effective alignment with the development of data delivery
(McKeen & Smith, 2015). Concerning this, the following
involves the expected information provision in the future. For
instance, this process will include the use of IoT (Internet-of-
Things), which is an integration of digital and mechanical
machines people or objects offered with a distinctive identifier.
Additionally, IoT transfers information over a given network or
internet without a physical initiation or interaction with the
computers. Currently, most of the organizations have started to
implement this strategy through their operations.
Additionally, Net-Centric operation includes taking part in the
section of a composite community involving devices, services
information, and people linked by a network of communication.
21. Consequently, this optimizes the management of resources to
offer better information to facilitate a decision. In addition, the
change in information brings about a system of self-
synchronization (McKeen & Smith, 2015). These automated
opportunities within Information Technology facilitates
deployment, development, testing, and provisioning process
within information delivery. Considering the trend in this
sector, professionals in this context will handle multifaceted
workloads within a short time with the involvement of the
system of self-synchronization.
The other future that awaits information delivery involves
feedback loops, which set to enhance efficiency through
communication. For instance, this technological process that
allows the customers to provide their perspectives concerning
the service and goods products received (McKeen & Smith,
2015). Through this process, an organization gets the feedbacks
from which they form the basis of their improvement and
modification. Consequently, these predictions of future data
delivery originate for analyzing the current trend along with the
organizational demands on making operation more manageable
and efficient.

practices. Pearson Higher Ed.
Discussion 2 :
Information delivery in IT is an idea whose time has finally
come. IT practitioners and experts have been talking about it for
years, yet only recently has the business truly begun to
understand the power and the potential of information. New
technologies and channels now make it possible to access and
deliver information easily and cheaply. As a result, information
is now being used to drive many different types of value in
organizations, from business intelligence to streamlined
operations to lower administrative costs to new ways to reach
customers (McKeen & Smith 2015).
The Future of Information Delivery
22. New technologies are beginning widespread implementation that
will have as big an impact on information delivery as the
Internet has had over the past decade. These technologies will
not only change what is possible to do with information, but
they will also change how we view the world of information
delivery and how organizations and individuals behave with
respect to information. Some of the most important future
directions for information delivery include the following:
The Internet of things- Wireless communications and radio
frequency identification (RFID) product tags will soon enable
organizations and industries to track individual physical objects
as they move through the supply chain (McKeen & Smith 2015).
As these technologies become more sophisticated, organizations
will be able to track and remotely monitor the status of
everything. Even though this technology is almost ready for
prime time, most organizations are nowhere near ready to cope
with making sense of such a large influx of information. This
will be one of the biggest challenges of the future.
Network centric operations- The growth of standardized
communication protocols, network devices, and high-speed data
access will soon make it possible to collect, create, distribute,
and exploit information across an extremely heterogeneous
global computing environment in the near future. Value will be
derived from the content, quality, and timeliness of the
information moving across the network.
Three critical elements must be in place to achieve this goal:
1. Sensor grids.
2. High-quality visual information.
3. Value-added command and control processes.
Self-synchronizing systems- Traditionally, leaders have worked
from the top down to achieve synchronization of effort. When
decisions are made in this way, each iteration of the observe
orient decide act (OODA) loop takes time to complete with the
front line passing information up the hierarchy until enough is
accumulated to make a decision, which is then passed back
down the organizational levels to the front line to take action.
23. In contrast, we know that complex processes organize best from
the bottom-up and they are efficient and can allocate resources
without high overheads (McKeen & Smith 2015).
Feedback loops- A central feature of self-synchronization is the
creation of closed feedback loops that enable individuals and
groups to adjust their behavior dynamically. Researchers have
already demonstrated the power of feedback to change behavior.
Informal information management. Finally, organizations have
a significant unmined resource in the informal information kept
by knowledge workers in them own personal files. Information-
delivery mechanisms of the future will look for opportunities to
organize and leverage this information in a variety of ways.

Discussion 3 :
While we come to the end of week eight of this course, there are
various areas of research that we have become able to text
covers. What we have been using is mostly on IT strategy,
which covers the issues and practices that includes the
department. While that has been very helpful, other areas could
become convenient when it comes to the research of IT. After
the conclusion of this course, I would like to expand my
research zone to the real business world. That means that I
would like the honor of meeting up with individuals who have
worked in the IT department for a substantial amount of time.
That would be a perfect platform for understanding the positive
and negative side of this technology. The course has only had
the class covering the information that has been written by one
author (Graham, 2009). Therefore, I believe that it would
become beneficial to elevate this information from our class
with the experience of IT employees.
The other area of research that I would like to indulge upon
after the end of our course is other various books of IT. I think
24. that it would be an excellent experience to cover multiple texts
and articles that have become written by different authors. The
experience of doing that will enable me to compare notes on the
different experiences that can come up within the IT world. The
books and texts that I would like to cover will be from different
times within the business grounds. That will become an
opportunity where I will learn about the various changes that
have affected the IT world. That would show me the growth
based on whether or not the results of it are positive or negative
(McKeen et al., 2008). This experience is a sure way of
allowing me to grow through my studies while also exposing me
to the real-life experiences that take part daily in the IT
business platforms.

Discussion 4 :
This class has provided a detailed learning opportunity for
Information Technology (IT) applications, importance, and
management for a successful business model. This class has
explained in detail about the IT values and the subjective
assessment of the business to realize specific goals. IT values
can be achieved in terms of ROI and KPIs. This class has
explained the essential principles of delivering IT values,
develop strategies for successful business values. IT and the
business relationship is a crucial aspect of creating a successful
business. Focusing on a common goal for business and IT is
necessary to realize IT values. I was able to gain knowledge
about the importance of budgeting and resource management for
IT. The IT leadership qualities and steps to create a successful
leader in IT provided insight into management in IT. This class
has also provided knowledge on the customers and employee
satisfaction to develop profitable business with IT.
25. The case studies in this class have provided a realistic
experience of common IT problems in current organizations.
The solutions to these problems and case study questions helped
to brainstorm the problem and apply my knowledge gained
during this class to answer the questions. The discussion
assignments and peer reviews provided critical thinking
opportunities to develop the IT knowledge for the development
and success of business models.
Below topics, I found challenging during the class, and it took
detailed research and reading to understand them.
· Innovation with IT
· Application portfolio management.
