MORE THAN half of people newly infected with
the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
worldwide are aged 15-24 years (United Nations
Children's Fund (UNICEF) etal 2002).
Empowering young people with the basic human
right of reproductive choice is, therefore,
critically important.
Over the past decade there has been a growing
interest in involving young people as peer
educators in health education in the UK,
particularly in the area of sexual health (Health
Education Board for Scotland (HEBS) 2003),
Peer education approaches offer the possibility
of changing behaviour and increasing knowledge
to prevent HIV, This article explains what a peer
education approach is and gives guidance on
how to develop a project focused on young
people. Although the author's experience of
developing peer education projects in Uganda for
HIV prevention is discussed, some of the
principles can be transferred to working with
young people in the UK,
Young people are at the centre of the global
HIV and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
(AIDS) pandemic. They are also a key human
resource for the future wellbeing of communities.
Each day nearly 6,000 young people aged from
5 0 november 16 :: vol 20 no 10 :: 2005
15-24 years become infected with HIV (UNICEF
etal2002). Educating young people about HIV,
and teaching them skills in negotiation, conflict
resolution, critical thinking, decision-making and
communication improve their self-confidence
and ability to make informed choices, for
example, postponing sex until they are mature
enough to protect themselves from HIV, other
sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and
unwanted pregnancies (UNICEF ef a/2002).
In 2003, an estimated 4,1 per cent of adults in
Uganda and 0,2 per cent in the UK were living
with HIV/AIDS (Joint United Nations
Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 1999,
UNAIDSAJNICEFAVorld Health Organization

of HIV/AIDS among young people in Uganda
include (Government of Uganda 1999):

Arrive at Opera as we know it today Peri’s and Monteverdi’s ope.docx
Arrive at Opera as we know it today: Peri’s and Monteverdi’s operas
Since the early twentieth century, European musical style has significantly changed its tradition for music as having take place around 1600.[footnoteRef:1] In general, it is described as the transition from Renaissance to Baroque style. Opera as an art originated from Italy in the 16th century and it spread out to Europe. This work is associated with drama, dance, vocal and visual music with impressive effects of the Greek and Romans. Orpheus was the greatest of musicians in ancient Greek mythology, it is challenging the gods with his capability to sing and play. Euridice by Peri and Orfeo by Monteverid are well-known works of early opera, which made use of Orpheus’ story and the same libretto. Peri’s Euridice is first survived and credited with early advances in opera composition as recitative and advancing Florentine Camerata’s ideas of Greek drama. On other hand, Monteverdi’s Orfeo Baroque operatic works include a variety of genres and types of styles. The text and plots are drawn from classical antiquity or ancient history, and the action involves a variety of special scenic effects.[footnoteRef:2] Because both works used the same libretto, in examining the two is very informative between two operas. Monteverdi’s opera is more widely known and performed today because it has a greater variety of musical style and richer sounds in instrumental and chorus. The purpose of this essay is to discuss the operas of Peri and Monteverdi’s libretto in various adaptations. This essay will cover an examination of monadic style works, instrumentations, and choral music. Ultimately, it will be shown that the conceptual and composers goals of Jacopo Peri and Claudio Monteverdi are in setting text to music. These ideas and changes effectively influenced the gradual growth of opera with the invention and improvement of today’s opera. [1: David Schulenberg, Music of the Baroque. New York; Oxford; Oxford University Press, 2014, 35.] [2: Schulenberg, 59.]
Before we examine Peri’s Euridice and Monteverdi’s Orfeo, it is necessary to acknowledge the experiments of Florentine Camerata. Florentine Camerata was an important group who met to discuss societies or academies and they were leading to write an ancient Greek and music. Florentine Camerata involved in Vincenzo Galilei and Giulo Caccini, but also Jacopo Peri, Ottavio Rinuccini, and Girolamo Mei participated. Florentine Camerata started with the experiment of stile recitative,which was a Greek style between speech and songs that was eventually called opera.
Rinuccini’s poems were a favorite subject for operas because the mythical hero is himself a singer and the combination of a simple action with a diversity of expressive situations.[footnoteRef:3] Peri was the monadic of the Florentine composers who wrote Eurydice, which is the earliest surviving opera with a completed setting of Rinuccini’s poem. It premiered on October 6, 1600 at .

Arriving to California State University, Northridge
Choosing university is like a puzzle game or a snake and ladder game.
Since I came from my country Kuwait I didn’t had any obstacle in the new country but I face changes in many area such as accommodation, environment, cultural, and languages. Because I had very excellent department in the ministry of education abroad which encourage people or show a great vision of the benefit to study abroad. Also, giving a great orientation before traveling date that helps me to be more familiar from the new things that I will have. Therefore I planned to study my bachelor in the United State. So I filled my application and I submit all my documents and paper to the ministry. Then, our cultural office processed my application and after that they send for me an acceptance letter to travel to U.S.A. Nevertheless, there are two major steps for student to be able to roll to the university in the United States. First, register for institutes for English to improve the English language. For example, I registered for UCI (university of California Irvine extension). In this period, I took English classes in writing, grammar, listing, reading, and vocabulary. Also, these classes help me to study for the requirement university test either the TOEFL or IELTS test. Second, searching and applying for the universities that have my major and agree with the condition of our scholarship.
In addition, most important thing that I contact my scholarship advisor in every steps because my advisor helps me to complete any document for the universities. As an international student I connect nearby my immigration department in the school and my advisor, this circle helps me to know my way and be ale to continue my problem or an issue. Thesis statement therefore, choosing the university in the united stated especially California is difficult in many things such as the major, the state and the study plan.

Welcome to Parenthood: The Journey to Unconditional Love
General goal: I want to inform my audience.
Specific goal: I would like my audience to understand how to take care of your child
through the first few months Postpartum, creating an incomparable bond.
Thesis statement: Showing love, protecting, and teaching your child, is a lifelong process
that leads to unconditional love and begins when you have the most time to utilize, during
Maternity or Paternity leave .
Introduction
I. How many of you know the unconditional love parents and their children have for
one another?
Arrington-Shaw 2
II. Have you ever wondered how such an unbreakable relationship is formed
between the parents and their child?
III. I want to share with you just three things new parents can do in order to
achieve that unconditional love that lasts a lifetime: nurture, protect, and teach.
Body
I. Nurturing a baby is essential to create a strong Parent-Child bond.
A. Mom should breastfeed for at least the first three months.
1. Baby will remember smell and tender skin of their mother from
breastfeeding and will feel comfortable whenever she is around.
2. Baby learns to rely on it’s mother for food.
3. Special components in mother’s milk that cleanses the baby's
digestive system.
B. Both parents need to take part in nurturing their infant.
1. Holding a baby against a bare chest allows the infant to hear it’s
mother’s or father’s heartbeat, similar to in the womb.
2. Touch is important for growth including kisses and tickles.
Arrington-Shaw 3
3. Playing with the baby will increase its senses and use of
expressions.
C. Taking care of yourself is important for you as well as your child.
1. To avoid being too tired to take care of things, change your schedule
and learn to sleep when your baby sleeps.
2. Your child senses your stress which in turn stresses the child, since
there is a lot to get done, help alleviate stress by letting
grandparents and close friends help you out when they can,
remembering that they love your child just as you do.
3. You will worry over every decision you make in an attempt to be a
perfect parent, remember no one is perfect, just prioritize and do
your best.
(Transition: Daily affection stimulates growth and makes your infant calm, while also
feeling protected.)
II. Trust is developed when parents care for the infant’s health and protect them.
A. Dealing with health issues and doctors can help.
1. Read all labels to medications you plan to give your child especially
if non prescribed or “over the counter”.
2. Keep the baby’s doctor on speed dial in case the child becomes

Ars Poetica
BY
ARCHIBALD MACLEISH
A poem should be palpable and mute
As a globed fruit,
Dumb
As old medallions to the thumb,
Silent as the sleeve-worn stone
Of casement ledges where the moss has grown—
A poem should be wordless
As the flight of birds.
*
A poem should be motionless in time
As the moon climbs,
Leaving, as the moon releases
Twig by twig the night-entangled trees,
Leaving, as the moon behind the winter leaves,
Memory by memory the mind—
A poem should be motionless in time
As the moon climbs.
*
A poem should be equal to:
Not true.
For all the history of grief
An empty doorway and a maple leaf.
For love
The leaning grasses and two lights above the sea—
A poem should not mean
But be.

Arnelle HallThe resource I resonated with the most was the Ted t.docx
Arnelle Hall
The resource I resonated with the most was the Ted talk about intersectionality. As an African American female, it is very hard trying to elevate myself onto an equal playing field because I am at a double disadvantage. I feel like African American women are looked over in so many ways by society but these problems can't be addressed because as the video stated, people will only address one at a time when in reality, both of them are a part of my identity at the same exact time. I hope that as this becomes a bigger topic things will change. I thought the Ted talk was very moving especially at the end when all of the Black women killed by police brutality were honored.
The theory that made the most sense to me was Piaget's model because it used age groups a child goes through and pairs them with common developmental milestones that we often celebrate in society. For example, the sensorimotor stage (birth-2) can be identified by object permeance. The pre-operational stage (2-7) can be identified by language development and asking questions. The concrete operational stage (7-11) can be identified by inductive reasoning. The last stage, the formal operational stage (12+) can be identified by understanding abstract feelings such as love and success.
I recently became an auntie. My nephew will be 1 years old in March. I can relate to this because I have seen him develop some of the milestones for the sensorimotor stage. He uses his senses a lot to try and understand the world around him. One example would be him grabbing anything in front of him and shaking it to see if it makes noise or putting it in his mouth to see what it tastes like.
Ayaka Motoki
Through watching the video, I believe the new family style (shown in the video) in our modern world could affect children in many different ways. Gillian’s theory in analyzed based on the traditional family roles, where girls tend to have interpersonal relationships with others, while boys act justly to avoid inequality. However, family that does not necessarily have one mother and one father might have different effect to their children, perhaps in a better way. As explained in the video, girls tend to be interpersonal because they are closer to their mother who teaches about the community and human relationships. If there is no distinguished role of teaching these in a family due to having more than one mother or father, both girls and boys will be taught the importance of moral stages, which will benefit both of them since it does not focus on based on children’s gender. I have a similar experience in my childhood since I lived with my mother and my grandparents. They did not try to teach both my brother and I differently based on our gender but rather the same. That is why I believe both of my brother have similar personalities and I consider my brother to be a very caring and kind to others.

One example would be him grabbing anything in front of him and shaking it to see if it makes noise or putting it in his mouth to see what it tastes like.

Through watching the video, I believe the new family style (shown in the video) in our modern world could affect children in many different ways. Gillian’s theory in analyzed based on the traditional family roles, where girls tend to have interpersonal relationships with others, while boys act justly to avoid inequality. However, family that does not necessarily have one mother and one father might have different effect to their children, perhaps in a better way. As explained in the video, girls tend to be interpersonal because they are closer to their mother who teaches about the community and human relationships. If there is no distinguished role of teaching these in a family due to having more than one mother or father, both girls and boys will be taught the importance of moral stages, which will benefit both of them since it does not focus on based on children’s gender. I have a similar experience in my childhood since I lived with my mother and my grandparents. They did not try to teach both my brother and I differently based on our gender but rather the same. That is why I believe both of my brother have similar personalities and I consider my brother to be a very caring and kind to others.

Aristotle On the Soul (De Anima)trans. J.A. SmithBOOK ONE.docx
Aristotle: On the Soul (De Anima)
trans. J.A. Smith
BOOK ONE
I.1. Fundamental Questions
HOLDING as we do that, while knowledge of any kind is a thing to be honoured and prized, one kind of it may, either by reason of its greater exactness or of a higher dignity and greater wonderfulness in its objects, be more honourable and precious than another, on both accounts we should naturally be led to place in the front rank the study of the soul. The knowledge of the soul admittedly contributes greatly to the advance of truth in general, and, above all, to our understanding of Nature, for the soul is in some sense the principle of animal life. Our aim is to grasp and understand, first its essential nature, and secondly its properties; of these some are taught to be affections proper to the soul itself, while others are considered to attach to the animal owing to the presence within it of soul.
To attain any assured knowledge about the soul is one of the most difficult things in the world. As the form of question which here presents itself, viz. the question 'What is it?', recurs in other fields, it might be supposed that there was some single method of inquiry applicable to all objects whose essential nature (as we are endeavouring to ascertain there is for derived properties the single method of demonstration); in that case what we should have to seek for would be this unique method. But if there is no such single and general method for solving the question of essence, our task becomes still more difficult; in the case of each different subject we shall have to determine the appropriate process of investigation. If to this there be a clear answer, e.g. that the process is demonstration or division, or some known method, difficulties and hesitations still beset us-with what facts shall we begin the inquiry? For the facts which form the starting-points in different subjects must be different, as e.g. in the case of numbers and surfaces.
First, no doubt, it is necessary to determine in which of the summa genera soul lies, what it is; is it 'a this-somewhat, 'a substance, or is it a quale or a quantum, or some other of the remaining kinds of predicates which we have distinguished? Further, does soul belong to the class of potential existents, or is it not rather an actuality? Our answer to this question is of the greatest importance.
We must consider also whether soul is divisible or is without parts, and whether it is everywhere homogeneous or not; and if not homogeneous, whether its various forms are different specifically or generically: up to the present time those who have discussed and investigated soul seem to have confined themselves to the human soul. We must be careful not to ignore the question whether soul can be defined in a single unambiguous formula, as is the case with animal, or whether we must not give a separate formula for each of it, as we do for horse, dog, man, god (in the latter case the 'universal' animal-and so too.
ArgumentsA. Arguments are found in many texts and media .docx
Arguments
A.
Arguments are found in many texts and media and it is important to be able to recognize, formulate, and evaluate arguments. Doing well in this class will depend upon whether you can acquire and improve these three skills. We will be concentrating on the arguments found in the philosophy texts we are reading this semester, but this skill is something you should carry with you through the rest of your college career and beyond.
Recognizing an argument is the first step in the process. An argument is where a claim is stated and it is supported by evidence. The claim is the conclusion of the argument and the evidence is known as the premises. In an argument, the conclusion follows from the premises, or, more specifically, the premises connect together in such a way that one can draw an inference from them, i.e., the conclusion.
But recognition of argument is not sufficient. One must also be able to formulate the argument. This involves listing the premises as well as unstated assumptions so one can see more clearly how the conclusion follows from the premises. This task will at first seem tedious and frustrating, but like anything else, the more you practice, the better you will get. Hopefully, you find this exercise beneficial and enlightening.
Here are some sample arguments:
1) All men are mortal.
Socrates is a man.
Socrates is mortal.
2) If there is snow on the ground, it must be cold.
There is snow on the ground.
It must be cold.
3) Animals are either vertebrates or invertebrates.
Walruses, an animal, are not invertebrates.
Walruses are vertebrates.
4) It rained almost every day in April for the last three years.
April is a rainy month.
B.
Not all texts will contain arguments. Some passages will just contain a description, explanation, or dialogue. Here are some examples.
1) Tuesday is the second day of the week.
2) If you do not exercise, you will not be healthy.
3) There are many students who attend state universities. Some explanation for this is that state universities are affordable and offer a variety of disciplines to study.
4) Parent: “You have not cleaned up your room this week.”
Child: “Yes I have.”
Parent: “No, I am afraid your room is still messy.”
Child: “But I have.”
Parent: “No you haven’t, at least not according to me.”
Child: “Well, according to me, I have.”
This last example may seem like an argument because we call it an argument. But this is using the word equivocally, that is using the same word to signify two different things. Example 4 is a disagreement, which does not always constitute an argument. There are no premises to support any claims being made in this example. Further, one should recognize that Example 2 is only a conditional claim and not an argument. A conditional claim is composed of an antecedent and a consequence. One must also affirm the antec.
Arguments of DefintionChapter 9Arguments of Defi.docx
Arguments of Defintion
Chapter 9
Arguments of DefinitionThese arguments are particularly powerful in that they help determine what something or someone is. Thus, they can result in inclusion or exclusion.They help us recognize that classifications change over time and are the result of cultural, social, and political forces.Definitions often serve group agendas while ignoring or attempting to silence others.Often evolve from daily life.
Arguments of DefinitionWe rely on definition for successful, efficient communication.As you have experienced with the Fact Paper, our ability to make an argument is limited when we cannot appeal to values.Contrary to the belief that values diminish the validity of an argument by rendering it mere opinion, values are a necessary part of the argument.Indeed, they are the very heart of an argument.Thus, evaluative terms are notoriously difficult to define.
Formal Definitions
(pp.200-201)Questions related to genus:Is assisting in suicide a crime?Is NASCAR a sport?Is rap poetry?What is an X [insert your own choice here]
Questions related to species:Is marijuana a relatively harmless drug or a dangerous, addictive one?Is Saudi Arabia an ally or an opponent of the USA?Is TV’s “Survivor” a reality show or a game show?Is X a Y or a Z [Insert your own topic}
Questions related to conditions:Should a woman be held to the same physical requirements as a man in order to join the military?Should everyone pay the same percentage of their income taxes regardless of their income?Are high scores on the SAT’s a fair condition for entrance into universities?Must X occur in order for Y? [Insert your topic]
Questions related to the fulfillment of conditions:Should academic scholarships count as taxable income?Should nontraditional educated experiences, such as semesters abroad and internships, count for college credit?Should X be counted as Y for the purposes of Z? [Insert your topic]
In summary, keep in mind that you can approach an argument of definition by:
Formulating a definition (What is X?): “Terrorism is any non-wartime act of violence undertaken for political gain.”Negative definition (Y is not X.): “Violence undertaken as part of a revolt against an oppressive regime is not terrorism.”Definition by Example (Y is/is not X): “The Irish Republican Army is/is not a terrorist organization.”
Other items to consider:Who is your specific audience?What are the counter-arguments to your proposed definition?In other words, anticipate oppositional stances.How would you refute those stances?Do not forget about visuals and design of arguments of definition.Matching claims to definitions is critical.

Argumentative Position Paper (Essay 4)This project is the culm.docx
Argumentative Position Paper (Essay 4)
This project is the culminating writing and research project of the semester, building on the skills you have developed throughout the semester. In a sense, many restrictions are gone: you must define the current issue you write about, you must define the audience you are writing to, and you must determine-to a larger extent- how to best organize and present information. You should draw on the rhetorical concepts we discussed early in the semester (logos, pathos, ethos, kairos, doxa) to consider how to most effectively craft this essay.
A proposal presents a problem and a solution or solutions to that problem. For this essay, the problem must be related to a current issue of your choice; you may choose a topic from one of the class case studies or a different topic of your own. It must, however, have been relevant in the last six months. Drawing on the sources you presented in your annotated bibliography- and substituting other sources as necessary- you will persuade your audience that a problem exists and that your solutions(s) is best, at least for the time being.
The following process may be useful as you create your proposal:
· Choose an issue to research. Make sure it is timely (relevant within the last six months) and something you care about, since you will spend a lot of time working with this topic. This can be from the class case studies or be entirely different. Try to make the issue as specific as possible. For instance, instead of “refugee camps,” narrow this down to something like: “impact of U.S. medical aid in refugee camps.” This is much more specific and manageable.
· Brainstorm a list of questions you have about the topic, problems you see others defining or that you identify yourself, and possible solutions to this problem.
· Explore the topic via research in your annotated bibliography.
· Define your audience- who would be interested in this issue and why? How much new information will you be offering them? Are they likely to already agree or disagree with your perspective on the topic?
· Return to your list and define a specific problem(s) you want to persuade readers exists and a specific solution(s) you have developed to address this problem(s).
· Create an outline of your essay to map out how you will organize the information.
Paper layout-
In the introduction:
· State the issue(s) or problem(s) and grab the reader’s attention
· Argue for the seriousness of the problem(s)
· State the thesis in the form of “Somebody needs to do/not do something because . . .”
(This is a formula; you must add information to this framework to create your thesis statement.)
In the body:
· Give the problem’s background if your audience is unfamiliar with it
· Define what the problem is, presenting evidence to prove that it is a problem and countering evidence from those whose viewpoints differ from yours
· Describe how this problem, if left unhandled, could affect the future.
· Present your solut.

Working With Children and Adolescents: The Case of Dalia
Dalia is a 14-year-old, biracial female of African and Irish American descent who resides with her parents in a middle-class suburb. She is the youngest of three children and is currently the only child remaining in the home. Dalia’s parents have been married for 25 years. Dalia’s father works in the creative arts field with a nontraditional work schedule that has him gone overnight and sleeping late into the morning. Dalia’s mother is an executive who works long hours. Dalia was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia in early childhood and was hospitalized multiple times. At present, Dalia’s health is stable with the last serious episode occurring 2 years ago.
Dalia’s parents reported that until middle school, Dalia was an easygoing, good-natured youngster who enjoyed singing and participating in activities with her peers and family. Dalia denied any problems with drugs or alcohol but admitted to drinking with friends. Dalia described her family relationships as tense, stating, “My dad lets me do what I want” and “My mother is always trying to control me.” Dalia described her relationship with her older brother, who lives in another state, as “cool,” and her relationship with her older sister, a college sophomore, as “not cool.”
Dalia’s parents sought out counseling services for behavioral issues on the recommendation of her school. The issues included argumentative behavior with authority figures, physical altercations with peers, poor concentration in class, irritable mood, verbal combativeness when confronted, truancy, and highly sexualized behavior with male peers. At home, Dalia had become more argumentative and physically threatening. Her parents had discovered that she and her friends drank alcohol in their home. Dalia’s parents also reported that she was up most of the night and slept most of the day. They also reported that her mood was highly irritable and that she was extremely impulsive. She had no interest in getting involved with any extracurricular activities, stating that those things are “corny and boring.”
In the first meeting, Dalia and her mother both appeared agitated with each other and became argumentative when going through the intake information. Dalia quickly told me that she was not .

Argument Position Essay Prompt English 3000 - PrivacyYou will wr.docx
Argument Position Essay Prompt English 3000 - Privacy
You will write an 800 minimum word position paper in response to the article by Daniel Solove in Reading Critically, Writing Well - "Why Privacy Matters Even If You Have Nothing to Hide" on page 341.
The essay must be formatted in MLA style with appropriate and correct in-text citations for all paraphrasing, summary and quoting, and must include a correct MLA Works Cited List.
· You will argue for or against the position taken, agreeing or disagreeing with Solove, while using the article as a source and a reference.
· In other words, do you think that if you have "nothing to hide", then online privacy doesn't matter? Why or why not?
· Read the article carefully to understand what he is claiming. Your purpose is to convince your readers to take your argument seriously.
· Therefore, you will need to acknowledge readers’ opposing views as well as any objections or questions they might have.
· This is NOT a review of Solove’s article.
Brainstorming/Pre-writing questions to consider:
1. Do you agree with the author’s estimation about online privacy and information gathering? Support your answer with reasons.
2. Solove divides violations of privacy into two types: Orwellian and Kafkaesque. What is the distinction between these two violations, and why does either of them matter?
3. To what extent should the government have such a significant power over citizens? Do you agree with Solove's assumption that a power differential is reason to be concerned, or do you look at the situation differently?
Be sure to read the discussion section following the essay on p. 346-348 for insights into Solove's rhetorical and writing strategies.
Position papers take on controversial issues that have no obvious “right” answer, no truth everyone accepts, no single authority everyone trusts. Consequently, simply gathering information – fact finding or expert sources – will not settle these disputes because ultimately they are a matter of opinion and judgment. Although it is not possible to prove that a position is right or wrong, it is possible to convince others through a well-constructed, reasoned argument.
You must use and cite the one source from the text, but no more than three in total. Anything outside your own experience, or that is not considered common knowledge, must be cited, but your own ideas and voice must clearly be heard in the paper, while using the source as evidence to support your claim. You may NOT use Wikipedia as a source, but may use it to see what the conversation is about in your topic (make sure to scroll to the bottom of their page to see their credible sources). Be sure to review how to use quotes, paraphrasing, and summary effectively, and how to integrate evidence into a paper while citing correctly, both in-text and on correctly formatted MLA Works Cited List.

Aristotle On the Soul (De Anima)trans. J.A. SmithBOOK ONE.docx
Aristotle: On the Soul (De Anima)
trans. J.A. Smith
BOOK ONE
I.1. Fundamental Questions
HOLDING as we do that, while knowledge of any kind is a thing to be honoured and prized, one kind of it may, either by reason of its greater exactness or of a higher dignity and greater wonderfulness in its objects, be more honourable and precious than another, on both accounts we should naturally be led to place in the front rank the study of the soul. The knowledge of the soul admittedly contributes greatly to the advance of truth in general, and, above all, to our understanding of Nature, for the soul is in some sense the principle of animal life. Our aim is to grasp and understand, first its essential nature, and secondly its properties; of these some are taught to be affections proper to the soul itself, while others are considered to attach to the animal owing to the presence within it of soul.
To attain any assured knowledge about the soul is one of the most difficult things in the world. As the form of question which here presents itself, viz. the question 'What is it?', recurs in other fields, it might be supposed that there was some single method of inquiry applicable to all objects whose essential nature (as we are endeavouring to ascertain there is for derived properties the single method of demonstration); in that case what we should have to seek for would be this unique method. But if there is no such single and general method for solving the question of essence, our task becomes still more difficult; in the case of each different subject we shall have to determine the appropriate process of investigation. If to this there be a clear answer, e.g. that the process is demonstration or division, or some known method, difficulties and hesitations still beset us-with what facts shall we begin the inquiry? For the facts which form the starting-points in different subjects must be different, as e.g. in the case of numbers and surfaces.
First, no doubt, it is necessary to determine in which of the summa genera soul lies, what it is; is it 'a this-somewhat, 'a substance, or is it a quale or a quantum, or some other of the remaining kinds of predicates which we have distinguished? Further, does soul belong to the class of potential existents, or is it not rather an actuality? Our answer to this question is of the greatest importance.
We must consider also whether soul is divisible or is without parts, and whether it is everywhere homogeneous or not; and if not homogeneous, whether its various forms are different specifically or generically: up to the present time those who have discussed and investigated soul seem to have confined themselves to the human soul. We must be careful not to ignore the question whether soul can be defined in a single unambiguous formula, as is the case with animal, or whether we must not give a separate formula for each of it, as we do for horse, dog, man, god (in the latter case the 'universal' animal-and so too.
ArgumentsA. Arguments are found in many texts and media .docx
Arguments
A.
Arguments are found in many texts and media and it is important to be able to recognize, formulate, and evaluate arguments. Doing well in this class will depend upon whether you can acquire and improve these three skills. We will be concentrating on the arguments found in the philosophy texts we are reading this semester, but this skill is something you should carry with you through the rest of your college career and beyond.
Recognizing an argument is the first step in the process. An argument is where a claim is stated and it is supported by evidence. The claim is the conclusion of the argument and the evidence is known as the premises. In an argument, the conclusion follows from the premises, or, more specifically, the premises connect together in such a way that one can draw an inference from them, i.e., the conclusion.
But recognition of argument is not sufficient. One must also be able to formulate the argument. This involves listing the premises as well as unstated assumptions so one can see more clearly how the conclusion follows from the premises. This task will at first seem tedious and frustrating, but like anything else, the more you practice, the better you will get. Hopefully, you find this exercise beneficial and enlightening.
Here are some sample arguments:
1) All men are mortal.
Socrates is a man.
Socrates is mortal.
2) If there is snow on the ground, it must be cold.
There is snow on the ground.
It must be cold.
3) Animals are either vertebrates or invertebrates.
Walruses, an animal, are not invertebrates.
Walruses are vertebrates.
4) It rained almost every day in April for the last three years.
April is a rainy month.
B.
Not all texts will contain arguments. Some passages will just contain a description, explanation, or dialogue. Here are some examples.
1) Tuesday is the second day of the week.
2) If you do not exercise, you will not be healthy.
3) There are many students who attend state universities. Some explanation for this is that state universities are affordable and offer a variety of disciplines to study.
4) Parent: “You have not cleaned up your room this week.”
Child: “Yes I have.”
Parent: “No, I am afraid your room is still messy.”
Child: “But I have.”
Parent: “No you haven’t, at least not according to me.”
Child: “Well, according to me, I have.”
This last example may seem like an argument because we call it an argument. But this is using the word equivocally, that is using the same word to signify two different things. Example 4 is a disagreement, which does not always constitute an argument. There are no premises to support any claims being made in this example. Further, one should recognize that Example 2 is only a conditional claim and not an argument. A conditional claim is composed of an antecedent and a consequence. One must also affirm the antec.
Arguments of DefintionChapter 9Arguments of Defi.docx
Arguments of Defintion
Chapter 9
Arguments of DefinitionThese arguments are particularly powerful in that they help determine what something or someone is. Thus, they can result in inclusion or exclusion.They help us recognize that classifications change over time and are the result of cultural, social, and political forces.Definitions often serve group agendas while ignoring or attempting to silence others.Often evolve from daily life.
Arguments of DefinitionWe rely on definition for successful, efficient communication.As you have experienced with the Fact Paper, our ability to make an argument is limited when we cannot appeal to values.Contrary to the belief that values diminish the validity of an argument by rendering it mere opinion, values are a necessary part of the argument.Indeed, they are the very heart of an argument.Thus, evaluative terms are notoriously difficult to define.
Formal Definitions
(pp.200-201)Questions related to genus:Is assisting in suicide a crime?Is NASCAR a sport?Is rap poetry?What is an X [insert your own choice here]
Questions related to species:Is marijuana a relatively harmless drug or a dangerous, addictive one?Is Saudi Arabia an ally or an opponent of the USA?Is TV’s “Survivor” a reality show or a game show?Is X a Y or a Z [Insert your own topic}
Questions related to conditions:Should a woman be held to the same physical requirements as a man in order to join the military?Should everyone pay the same percentage of their income taxes regardless of their income?Are high scores on the SAT’s a fair condition for entrance into universities?Must X occur in order for Y? [Insert your topic]
Questions related to the fulfillment of conditions:Should academic scholarships count as taxable income?Should nontraditional educated experiences, such as semesters abroad and internships, count for college credit?Should X be counted as Y for the purposes of Z? [Insert your topic]
In summary, keep in mind that you can approach an argument of definition by:
Formulating a definition (What is X?): “Terrorism is any non-wartime act of violence undertaken for political gain.”Negative definition (Y is not X.): “Violence undertaken as part of a revolt against an oppressive regime is not terrorism.”Definition by Example (Y is/is not X): “The Irish Republican Army is/is not a terrorist organization.”
Other items to consider:Who is your specific audience?What are the counter-arguments to your proposed definition?In other words, anticipate oppositional stances.How would you refute those stances?Do not forget about visuals and design of arguments of definition.Matching claims to definitions is critical.

Argumentative Position Paper (Essay 4)This project is the culm.docx
Argumentative Position Paper (Essay 4)
This project is the culminating writing and research project of the semester, building on the skills you have developed throughout the semester. In a sense, many restrictions are gone: you must define the current issue you write about, you must define the audience you are writing to, and you must determine-to a larger extent- how to best organize and present information. You should draw on the rhetorical concepts we discussed early in the semester (logos, pathos, ethos, kairos, doxa) to consider how to most effectively craft this essay.
A proposal presents a problem and a solution or solutions to that problem. For this essay, the problem must be related to a current issue of your choice; you may choose a topic from one of the class case studies or a different topic of your own. It must, however, have been relevant in the last six months. Drawing on the sources you presented in your annotated bibliography- and substituting other sources as necessary- you will persuade your audience that a problem exists and that your solutions(s) is best, at least for the time being.
The following process may be useful as you create your proposal:
· Choose an issue to research. Make sure it is timely (relevant within the last six months) and something you care about, since you will spend a lot of time working with this topic. This can be from the class case studies or be entirely different. Try to make the issue as specific as possible. For instance, instead of “refugee camps,” narrow this down to something like: “impact of U.S. medical aid in refugee camps.” This is much more specific and manageable.
· Brainstorm a list of questions you have about the topic, problems you see others defining or that you identify yourself, and possible solutions to this problem.
· Explore the topic via research in your annotated bibliography.
· Define your audience- who would be interested in this issue and why? How much new information will you be offering them? Are they likely to already agree or disagree with your perspective on the topic?
· Return to your list and define a specific problem(s) you want to persuade readers exists and a specific solution(s) you have developed to address this problem(s).
· Create an outline of your essay to map out how you will organize the information.
Paper layout-
In the introduction:
· State the issue(s) or problem(s) and grab the reader’s attention
· Argue for the seriousness of the problem(s)
· State the thesis in the form of “Somebody needs to do/not do something because . . .”
(This is a formula; you must add information to this framework to create your thesis statement.)
In the body:
· Give the problem’s background if your audience is unfamiliar with it
· Define what the problem is, presenting evidence to prove that it is a problem and countering evidence from those whose viewpoints differ from yours
· Describe how this problem, if left unhandled, could affect the future.
· Present your solut.

Argumentative behavior, engagement in physical altercations, and e.docx
Argumentative behavior, engagement in physical altercations, and evidence of mood swings can all indicate that an adolescent is experiencing anger and depression. Self-harming can surface in adolescents, too, as they experience difficult emotions.
For this, read the case study of Dalia and consider what you, as her social worker, would do if you observed self-harm indicators.
Post
a brief explanation of self-harming behaviors that Dalia is exhibiting. Describe theoretical approaches and practical skills you would employ in working with Dalia. How might familial relationships result in Dalia’s self-harming behavior? Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer.
Working With Children and Adolescents: The Case of Dalia
Dalia is a 14-year-old, biracial female of African and Irish American descent who resides with her parents in a middle-class suburb. She is the youngest of three children and is currently the only child remaining in the home. Dalia’s parents have been married for 25 years. Dalia’s father works in the creative arts field with a nontraditional work schedule that has him gone overnight and sleeping late into the morning. Dalia’s mother is an executive who works long hours. Dalia was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia in early childhood and was hospitalized multiple times. At present, Dalia’s health is stable with the last serious episode occurring 2 years ago.
Dalia’s parents reported that until middle school, Dalia was an easygoing, good-natured youngster who enjoyed singing and participating in activities with her peers and family. Dalia denied any problems with drugs or alcohol but admitted to drinking with friends. Dalia described her family relationships as tense, stating, “My dad lets me do what I want” and “My mother is always trying to control me.” Dalia described her relationship with her older brother, who lives in another state, as “cool,” and her relationship with her older sister, a college sophomore, as “not cool.”
Dalia’s parents sought out counseling services for behavioral issues on the recommendation of her school. The issues included argumentative behavior with authority figures, physical altercations with peers, poor concentration in class, irritable mood, verbal combativeness when confronted, truancy, and highly sexualized behavior with male peers. At home, Dalia had become more argumentative and physically threatening. Her parents had discovered that she and her friends drank alcohol in their home. Dalia’s parents also reported that she was up most of the night and slept most of the day. They also reported that her mood was highly irritable and that she was extremely impulsive. She had no interest in getting involved with any extracurricular activities, stating that those things are “corny and boring.”
In the first meeting, Dalia and her mother both appeared agitated with each other and became argumentative when going through the intake information. Dalia quickly told me that she was not .

Argumentative behavior, engagement in physical altercations, and evi.docx
Argumentative behavior, engagement in physical altercations, and evidence of mood swings can all indicate that an adolescent is experiencing anger and depression. Self-harming can surface in adolescents, too, as they experience difficult emotions.
For this Discussion, read the case study of Dalia and consider what you, as her social worker, would do if you observed self-harm indicators.
By Day 3
Post
a brief explanation of self-harming behaviors that Dalia is exhibiting. Describe theoretical approaches and practical skills you would employ in working with Dalia. How might familial relationships result in Dalia’s self-harming behavior? Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer.
Working With Children and Adolescents: The Case of Dalia
Dalia is a 14-year-old, biracial female of African and Irish American descent who resides with her parents in a middle-class suburb. She is the youngest of three children and is currently the only child remaining in the home. Dalia’s parents have been married for 25 years. Dalia’s father works in the creative arts field with a nontraditional work schedule that has him gone overnight and sleeping late into the morning. Dalia’s mother is an executive who works long hours. Dalia was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia in early childhood and was hospitalized multiple times. At present, Dalia’s health is stable with the last serious episode occurring 2 years ago.
Dalia’s parents reported that until middle school, Dalia was an easygoing, good-natured youngster who enjoyed singing and participating in activities with her peers and family. Dalia denied any problems with drugs or alcohol but admitted to drinking with friends. Dalia described her family relationships as tense, stating, “My dad lets me do what I want” and “My mother is always trying to control me.” Dalia described her relationship with her older brother, who lives in another state, as “cool,” and her relationship with her older sister, a college sophomore, as “not cool.”
Dalia’s parents sought out counseling services for behavioral issues on the recommendation of her school. The issues included argumentative behavior with authority figures, physical altercations with peers, poor concentration in class, irritable mood, verbal combativeness when confronted, truancy, and highly sexualized behavior with male peers. At home, Dalia had become more argumentative and physically threatening. Her parents had discovered that she and her friends drank alcohol in their home. Dalia’s parents also reported that she was up most of the night and slept most of the day. They also reported that her mood was highly irritable and that she was extremely impulsive. She had no interest in getting involved with any extracurricular activities, stating that those things are “corny and boring.”
In the first meeting, Dalia and her mother both appeared agitated with each other and became argumentative when going through the intake information. Dalia quickly told me.

Argument Position Essay Prompt English 3000 - PrivacyYou will wr.docx
Argument Position Essay Prompt English 3000 - Privacy
You will write an 800 minimum word position paper in response to the article by Daniel Solove in Reading Critically, Writing Well - "Why Privacy Matters Even If You Have Nothing to Hide" on page 341.
The essay must be formatted in MLA style with appropriate and correct in-text citations for all paraphrasing, summary and quoting, and must include a correct MLA Works Cited List.
· You will argue for or against the position taken, agreeing or disagreeing with Solove, while using the article as a source and a reference.
· In other words, do you think that if you have "nothing to hide", then online privacy doesn't matter? Why or why not?
· Read the article carefully to understand what he is claiming. Your purpose is to convince your readers to take your argument seriously.
· Therefore, you will need to acknowledge readers’ opposing views as well as any objections or questions they might have.
· This is NOT a review of Solove’s article.
Brainstorming/Pre-writing questions to consider:
1. Do you agree with the author’s estimation about online privacy and information gathering? Support your answer with reasons.
2. Solove divides violations of privacy into two types: Orwellian and Kafkaesque. What is the distinction between these two violations, and why does either of them matter?
3. To what extent should the government have such a significant power over citizens? Do you agree with Solove's assumption that a power differential is reason to be concerned, or do you look at the situation differently?
Be sure to read the discussion section following the essay on p. 346-348 for insights into Solove's rhetorical and writing strategies.
Position papers take on controversial issues that have no obvious “right” answer, no truth everyone accepts, no single authority everyone trusts. Consequently, simply gathering information – fact finding or expert sources – will not settle these disputes because ultimately they are a matter of opinion and judgment. Although it is not possible to prove that a position is right or wrong, it is possible to convince others through a well-constructed, reasoned argument.
You must use and cite the one source from the text, but no more than three in total. Anything outside your own experience, or that is not considered common knowledge, must be cited, but your own ideas and voice must clearly be heard in the paper, while using the source as evidence to support your claim. You may NOT use Wikipedia as a source, but may use it to see what the conversation is about in your topic (make sure to scroll to the bottom of their page to see their credible sources). Be sure to review how to use quotes, paraphrasing, and summary effectively, and how to integrate evidence into a paper while citing correctly, both in-text and on correctly formatted MLA Works Cited List.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
