EH 101: Composition 1
Assignment 3: Image Analysis
Peer Review Draft due: Friday, March 4
Initial Draft due: Monday, March 7
First Revision due: Wednesday, March 23
Rhetoric surrounds us in our everyday lives. On a daily basis, we encounter rhetoric through multiple avenues,
through the arguments we create and even through the advertisements we encounter that try to sell us different
products. Thinking about how we encounter rhetoric helps us understand the world around us, and it can even
sometimes mean that we can engage it to understand a particular culture or way of thinking. Rhetoric is usually
associated with creating an argument, but it can also even mean constructing yourself into the world, whether
that is through the physical act of writing or even through how we dress and act. Understanding rhetoric is
hugely important in helping us both break down any kind of writing to fully understand what is being said.
Equally important, being aware of rhetoric and the different rhetorical moves we can make helps us to create
our own texts as well.
Part of what we will do with this assignment is engage with how rhetoric actually works by fully breaking down
the rhetorical situation of an image. We will be discussing what the rhetorical situation is in class, but
basically, it is a method of analysis where rhetoric is broken down into four different constituents: audience,
rhetor, constraints, and exigence. Understanding all four of those constituents can better help us understand
the rhetoric behind a situation, a paper, and even an image.
For this assignment, what you’ll do is select an image and analyze it using the rhetorical situation lens. This
image can be up to your choosing, but some options can include a photograph, a painting, an advertisement
(these are particularly useful in this assignment), a meme, or even a particular style of clothing or someone’s
particular style choice. (Although I’d be open to using videos as well, take some caution that this might be too
difficult to tackle in a four to five page paper). Using this image, the writer will make some sort of argument
about the rhetoric they see surrounding the image. I will approve your selections, and you will need to
submit your selection of the image you want to analyze on USA Online by Wednesday, February
24.
Invention and Drafting
In order to put this paper together, you will have to select an image that you think warrants analysis. Select the
image and try to pick apart what you see happening. This could range from the colors of the image to the
activities you see happening in the image to even the words that are on the image. As you are analyzing, it may
be helpful to ask yourself these questions:
1. Who is the audience for this image? What is used in the image to work to persuade or grab the attention
of the audience?
2. What kind of constraints does the rhetor have in creating the image? ...

Guidelines for Visual Analysis Essay
Assignment Overview
Your next major essay in this course will be a visual analysis essay. In this essay, you will be expected to apply the concepts covered in Units 1-4 as you analyze an image to show some of its larger meanings. This includes knowledge of the writing process, rhetorical situation, formal register, essay structure, and visual analysis. This essay also requires you to cite at least one credible source.
Due Dates
Refer to the assignment calendar for due dates. Remember, peer reviews are graded separately and have their own due dates in the assignment calendar.
Purpose and Learning Objectives
In this assignment, you should practice analyzing visual texts, using the writing process, and developing a well-constructed essay in formal register. The essay should show how an analysis of the visual components of an image leads to a better understanding of the image.
Process for Completion
1. The first step in this process will be to choose an image. Browse the images available through the Gordon Parks Foundation Archives. The link is available near the end of Unit 3. Choose an image that you find engaging and that you feel offers ample opportunity for analysis. Some images are interesting, but they’re difficult to talk about. The image you choose will be the subject of your essay.
2. After you have chosen your image, you should engage in some prewriting activities using the ideas and terms presented in Unit 4. First, take stock of your initial reactions to the image. What emotions did you feel as you first looked at the photograph? What aspects about the image lead viewers to react a certain way?
3. Before you begin writing, you will want to perform some research. This assignment requires at least one source (print or web). If you're choosing an image about the Civil Rights Movement, you might want to research the movement. If you're choosing an image about Flavio in Rio de Janeiro, you might want to research how Gordon Parks met Flavio. You're welcome to use more than one source, but be sure to keep track of the information you gain from your source so that you can cite the source appropriately.
4. Next, analyze the image by looking closely at the content, framing, composition, focus, color, lighting and context. What interesting or unique features do you notice about the image? What is the cultural or historical context of the image? You should record all of these activities. Some of them will become important pieces of your final draft.
5. Next, it will be time to find your focus and begin generating a working thesis statement. For this assignment, your thesis will make a claim about the meaning of the image. In other words, what message does the image communicate? Remember, every image tells a story and an image may tell a different story depending on who is looking. Once you have decided what idea or story the image communicates to you, you will need .
This document provides guidance on creating an effective photo essay by first establishing a clear thesis and supporting points before searching for relevant images. It emphasizes that the images chosen should directly relate to and help illustrate the overall argument. Additionally, it notes that the layout and formatting of text and images should be deliberately chosen to best emphasize either the words or images depending on the intended message. Proper research of topics and careful planning of arguments, images, and design are key to crafting a cohesive photo essay that makes a persuasive visual argument.

REQUIREMENTS
This is n
ot a research paper but a reaction paper…it is about your response to the image and what you think is important about it, what you notice in it, what you feel gives it its impact or its meaning in all the ways we have discussed.
No need for footnotes. If you want to use any quotes from the articles, chapters, or other texts just put the words within quote marks and state where they come from. Like this:
As Ada Louise Huxtable says in the article
Living with the Fake and Learning to Love It,
“Distinctions are no longer made or deemed necessary between the real and the false.”

THE STRUCTURE
After the cover page, the paper itself should be in six parts:
Introduction
Write a paragraph or two introducing the image and explaining what attracted you
to it in the first place, why you thought it was interesting enough to write about.
Analysis
The bulk of the paper is going through the four approaches to meaning one by one
(Content, Appearance, Use, Context) and relating these to the image just as you
have done separately for various weekly image assignments.
Content: what are the important things you see in the image and how and
why do they contribute to the impact?
Appearance: what visual elements (colors, shapes, lines, etc.) and visual
principles (balance, hierarchy, etc.) seem to matter in this image
and why do they matter?
Use: what aspects of how the image is being used matter here? Who do
you think is using the image and in what ways and for what
purposes?
Context: what else that you know or find out about the image seems to
affect it’s meaning or impact?
Summary
The last paragraph or two should summarize what you have said in the paper and
relate the points you have made to the reason the image has an impact on you.

Marguerite HelmersThe Elements of Critical ViewingMargueri.docxinfantsuk
Marguerite Helmers
The Elements of Critical Viewing
Marguerite Helmers (1961- ) is Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh, where she teaches courses in Visual Rhetoric, The Rhetoric of Literature, and Film & Literary Studies. She has edited the two scholarly texts: Intertexts: Reading Pedagogy in College Writing Classrooms (2003) and The Traveling and Writing Self (2007). The following essay is adapted from Chapter Two of her book The Elements of Visual Analysis (2006).
A New Language
When you look at a family photograph, an image in an advertisement, or a poster on a coffee shop wall, what do you see? How might you turn your initial positive or negative reaction into a critical process of analysis? Critical viewing entails looking closely at an image to comprehend its structure and to evaluate the information presented. “What you see is a major part of what you know,” writes Donis Dondis, author of a popular visual studies handbook. Our goal is to move from being passive consumers of images to active interrogators. This takes study. Initially, if possible, we should think consensually and sympathetically, reading the image in the way that it appears to be intended to be read, avoiding critique until after we examine the elements of the image. This process involves a degree of intellectual largesse on our part, meaning that we grant to the author of the image our attempt to understand his or her judgments, even if we disagree. Thinking consensually is not always possible, especially when we view images of war, strife, and privation, because the images cause us to react with horror and outrage. Yet, our repulsion can be an agent for meaningful change as we seek to investigate the conditions under which images were created and disseminated.
Even though we begin by examining what the creator may have intended, we need to keep in mind that there is never a single interpretation of an image, so our goal is not to discover the right interpretation, but to offer potential readings of an image.
The goal of this chapter is to help you establish a process and develop a language for examining visual images. You not only want to describe what is there before you, you also want to understand why the creator made certain choices. Sylvan Barnett, the author of several texts on analyzing fine art, writes that we “see” with more than our eyes: when we look at objects and images, we engage emotions, memory, and ideology (the system of values and beliefs into which we have been educated).
Before continuing with your work, remember two things. First, to see images in their original contexts. While digital technology has made it possible for many art galleries, museums, and image lovers to put high-quality color images of paintings, photographs, and sculpture online, they all appear on the same small, flat screen. Missing is the context of viewing: the hushed tones of the art museum or the buzz of the coffee house. The ambient no ...
This proposal outlines plans to create a music magazine and merchandise targeted at 13-19 year old males. Research will include analyzing existing similar products to identify conventions. The concept is to create an aesthetically pleasing magazine and clothes appealing to the target audience. Three issues of the magazine will be made along with merchandise featuring the magazine logo. Evaluation will include screenshots, peer feedback, and self-reflection on outcomes. A schedule outlines tasks over 10 weeks including research, production experiments, planning, gathering resources, creating the magazine covers/spreads and merchandise, and final evaluation.
The proposal is for a final major project creating various materials for an invented horror film, including a DVD cover, movie poster, merchandise, and social media page. The primary target audience is males aged 18-24 and the secondary is males 25-44 who are middle class. Research has included audience surveys to determine preferences, analyzing existing similar materials to understand required elements, and practicing relevant skills in photography and Photoshop. A schedule is provided outlining tasks over 10 weeks, including production, evaluation, and development. The bibliography cites target audience interviews, online videos about film marketing and analysis, and a survey link to inform the project planning.
This document outlines a lesson plan on revising ideas about audience for a media exam. It includes learning objectives, success criteria, and a series of tasks to help students understand key concepts like demographics, psychographics, and how to analyze a film's audience. It provides examples analyzing the audiences of the film "Us" and discusses how large media conglomerates differ from independent producers in meeting audience wants and needs. Students are prompted to reflect on how the lesson fits with their other learning.
The document provides an agenda for a teacher candidate class that includes a picture book lesson presentation, connecting writing expectations to current events, professional learning communities, and an example lesson. It also previews what will be covered the following week, including an online forum post and professional learning community activities. Students are asked to complete a survey for an educational research study on literacy beliefs that is optional and separate from course requirements.
This document is a proposal for a final major project (FMP) creating promotional materials for a horror film. The proposed project will include creating trailers, DVD cover art, posters, and a magazine article. Research will include analyzing existing promotional materials to inspire creative ideas. The target audience is identified as 16-24 year old males due to the horror genre. Production will involve filming, editing music, and designing promotional assets in software like Photoshop and Premiere Pro. Progress will be evaluated through weekly reflections and surveys to gather feedback on strengths and weaknesses. A timeline schedules tasks over 10 weeks including research, production experiments, filming, and a final evaluation.
The document provides guidance for planning a digital graphic narrative project, outlining key considerations around costs, available resources, quantity, audience, quality factors, codes of practice, regulations, copyright, ethics, and health and safety. It also includes templates for a production schedule and resources checklist to help structure the planning process. Potential risks are identified along with suggestions for how to prevent issues like repetitive strain injury, eye strain, spills, and tripping hazards during the project work.
The document is a career report assignment with four parts. In part one, the student investigates and summarizes information about a career in fashion design. Part two involves completing career personality and interest assessments through an online tool. The results are summarized. Part three involves completing a separate personality test and analyzing the results. Part four involves setting short and long term career goals and outlining strategies to achieve them.

Designing
a
system
to
help
people
brand
their
personal
identity
Who are you? A cool-as designer, a surfer dude, a sports star, a coder, a book-loving
geek? Who am I? An intellectual, an existentialist writer, a dancer?
Throughout our lives we express our personal identity in many different ways.
Sometimes this is through direct interaction with people, but more and more we
present ourselves online via digital media. We tweet how we feel about that person
who ‘stole our’ car park from us, post our dream holiday destination on Facebook,
compose songs, design invitations, manipulate photos – all using digital software.
Some of this expression results in permanent artefacts – photos, recorded music –
other things are more temporary – phone conversations with friends, live music.
Your task, this semester, is to design a system that will help people to brand their
personal identity. Phase I of this project involves understanding how people currently
deal with their personal expression. The aim of the activities in this phase of the
project is for you to immerse yourself in the real-world context and issues involved in
producing, managing, and sharing expression of personal identity, both online and in
the real world/offline.
You can interpret ‘expression of personal identity’ very broadly. Some things you
consider might be active presentations of an artistic nature such as music, art or
writing. Other aspects of personal identity might be happening more subconsciously
such as the choice what food to eat, what sports to play or which friends to have;
people might not perceive this as expression of their personal identity, nevertheless it
forms a big part of it.
This understanding of context should be deep enough to prepare you to perform a
detailed design of a system to support people in producing, managing and expressing
their personal identity; the system should enable users to ‘brand their personal
identity’. You will create and evaluate this design in Phase II. In Phase III, you will
implement and evaluate a proof-of-concept prototype of the Phase II design.
Phase I consists of 5 steps. There are deliverables associated with each of these steps.
Step
1:
Self-‐observation
and
self-‐interview:
how
do
you
express
your
own
identity?
In this step, you will analyse your own behaviour in expressing your personal
identity: the strategies, applications, and resources that you use. Note that you might,
or might not, have previously thought of yourself as expressing or branding your
personal identity; here, we’re defining personal id.
The document is a proposal for a final major project creating a horror film. The primary target audience is males aged 18-24 and the secondary is males 25-44. Research was conducted through surveys showing horror is the most popular genre. The project will include a DVD cover, poster, merchandise (t-shirt and toy), and social media page. Skills in photography, Photoshop, and layout design will be practiced and improved upon. Progress will be evaluated through weekly reflections and blog posts discussing successes, challenges, and areas for growth. A schedule outlines the plan over 10 weeks, beginning with research and proposal, followed by production, evaluation, and development.
2.THE FORMATThe paper should be between four and six d.docxvickeryr87
2.
THE FORMAT
The paper should be between four and six double-spaced, typewritten pages…but if you want to write more, you can and should.
Please include a cover page with your name and the title of your paper (or the name of the image) at the front, and include a good quality copy of the image you select as the last page of your paper.
3.
CONTENTS
This paper is a visual analysis of a
single
image…it is a summation of everything you have learned in this course, as applied to the study of one single image.
Use what you have learned in this course to probe into the full meaning of the image.
Select a
single
image from any source (photo, painting, billboard, ad, etc.).
The image you pick may have multiple parts (images, words, etc.) but do not assemble a collection of images.
Pick
one
that you find absolutely fascinating, riveting, intriguing, or otherwise compelling enough to write about.
You can re-use an image you picked for one of the weekly assignments if you want, or select a new one.
4.
REQUIREMENTS
This is n
ot a research paper but a reaction paper…it is about your response to the image and what you think is important about it, what you notice in it, what you feel gives it its impact or its meaning in all the ways we have discussed.
No need for footnotes. If you want to use any quotes from the articles, chapters, or other texts just put the words within quote marks and state where they come from.
Like this:
As Ada Louise Huxtable says in the article
Living with the Fake and Learning to Love It,
“Distinctions are no longer made or deemed necessary between the real and the false.”
Other than a sentence or two as a cited quote from someone else, this paper MUST BE IN YOUR OWN WORDS or it will not be accepted.
5.
THE STRUCTURE
After the cover page, the paper itself should be in six parts:
Introduction
Write a paragraph or two introducing the image and explaining what attracted you
to it in the first place, why you thought it was interesting enough to write about.
Analysis
The bulk of the paper is going through the four approaches to meaning one by one
(Content, Appearance, Use, Context) and relating these to the image just as you
have done separately for various weekly image assignments.
Content: what are the important things you see in the image and how and
why do they contribute to the impact?
Appearance: what visual elements (colors, shapes, lines, etc.) and visual
principles (balance, hierarchy, etc.) seem to matter in this image
and why do they matter?
Use:
what aspects of how the image is being used matter here?
Who do
you think is using the image and in what ways and for what
purposes?
Context:
what else that you know or find out about the image seems to
affect it’s meaning or impact?
Summary
The last paragraph or two should summarize what you have said in the paper and
relate the points you have made to the reason the image has an impact on you.
Did the process .
The document provides an initial reaction and plans from Bailey Dyble for creating a magazine. Bailey was excited but unfamiliar with magazines and had no ideas for content. Worries included not knowing celebrities to feature without their photos. A mind map and mood board were created to help determine the magazine's focus. The mood board showed connections between sports and successful individuals through cars and money earned from enjoyed activities like sports. The schedule outlines the production process over 5 weeks, including research, planning, covers, articles, and a final evaluation. At least 7 sources are planned for content, including audience interviews.

Instructions
Overview
In developing your expertise in transnational
organized crime (TOC) you will be writing a series of research papers. All
together the writing contained in all these papers combined would be quite
significant project! You will find that in some modules, the research papers
mimic our readings with respect to subject matter and some modules, the
research papers do not mimic the reading. Again, the goal of these research
papers is to stretch the depth and breadth of your knowledge. You should feel
well prepared to teach a course in TOCs after completing this course. The
research papers and PowerPoints you create could serve as the basis for such
class. Additionally, you will find that this course and the course CJUS701
Comparative Criminal Justice Systems complement each other very well.
Instructions
·
Each
research paper should be a minimum of 6 to 8 pages.
·
The
vast difference in page count is because some countries and/or crime/topics are
quite easy to study and some countries and/or crime/topics have very limited
information.
·
In
some instances, there will be a plethora of information and you must use
skilled writing to maintain proper page count.
·
Please
keep in mind that this is doctoral level analysis and writing – you are to take
the hard-earned road – the road less travelled – the scholarly road in forming
your paper.
·
The
paper must use current APA style, and the page count does not include the title
page, abstract, reference section, or any extra material.
·
The
minimum elements of the paper are listed below.
·
You
must use a
minimum
of 8 recent (some
countries/crimes/topics may have more recent research articles than others),
relevant, and academic (peer review journals preferred and professional
journals allowed if used judiciously) sources, at least 2 sources being the
Holy Bible, and one recent (some countries/crime/topics have more recent than
others) news article. Books may be used
but are considered “additional: sources beyond the stated minimums. You may use
.gov sources as your recent, relevant, and academic sources if the writing is
academic in nature (authored works). You may also use United Nations and
Whitehouse.gov documents as academic documents.
·
Again,
this paper must reflect graduate level research and writing style. If you need to go over the maximum page count
you must obtain professor permission in advance! Please reference the Research
Paper Rubric when creating your research paper.
These are minimum guidelines – you may expand the
topics covered in your papers.

Marguerite Helmers
The Elements of Critical Viewing
Marguerite Helmers (1961- ) is Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh, where she teaches courses in Visual Rhetoric, The Rhetoric of Literature, and Film & Literary Studies. She has edited the two scholarly texts: Intertexts: Reading Pedagogy in College Writing Classrooms (2003) and The Traveling and Writing Self (2007). The following essay is adapted from Chapter Two of her book The Elements of Visual Analysis (2006).
A New Language
When you look at a family photograph, an image in an advertisement, or a poster on a coffee shop wall, what do you see? How might you turn your initial positive or negative reaction into a critical process of analysis? Critical viewing entails looking closely at an image to comprehend its structure and to evaluate the information presented. “What you see is a major part of what you know,” writes Donis Dondis, author of a popular visual studies handbook. Our goal is to move from being passive consumers of images to active interrogators. This takes study. Initially, if possible, we should think consensually and sympathetically, reading the image in the way that it appears to be intended to be read, avoiding critique until after we examine the elements of the image. This process involves a degree of intellectual largesse on our part, meaning that we grant to the author of the image our attempt to understand his or her judgments, even if we disagree. Thinking consensually is not always possible, especially when we view images of war, strife, and privation, because the images cause us to react with horror and outrage. Yet, our repulsion can be an agent for meaningful change as we seek to investigate the conditions under which images were created and disseminated.
Even though we begin by examining what the creator may have intended, we need to keep in mind that there is never a single interpretation of an image, so our goal is not to discover the right interpretation, but to offer potential readings of an image.
The goal of this chapter is to help you establish a process and develop a language for examining visual images. You not only want to describe what is there before you, you also want to understand why the creator made certain choices. Sylvan Barnett, the author of several texts on analyzing fine art, writes that we “see” with more than our eyes: when we look at objects and images, we engage emotions, memory, and ideology (the system of values and beliefs into which we have been educated).
Before continuing with your work, remember two things. First, to see images in their original contexts. While digital technology has made it possible for many art galleries, museums, and image lovers to put high-quality color images of paintings, photographs, and sculpture online, they all appear on the same small, flat screen. Missing is the context of viewing: the hushed tones of the art museum or the buzz of the coffee house. The ambient no ...
This proposal outlines plans to create a music magazine and merchandise targeted at 13-19 year old males. Research will include analyzing existing similar products to identify conventions. The concept is to create an aesthetically pleasing magazine and clothes appealing to the target audience. Three issues of the magazine will be made along with merchandise featuring the magazine logo. Evaluation will include screenshots, peer feedback, and self-reflection on outcomes. A schedule outlines tasks over 10 weeks including research, production experiments, planning, gathering resources, creating the magazine covers/spreads and merchandise, and final evaluation.
The proposal is for a final major project creating various materials for an invented horror film, including a DVD cover, movie poster, merchandise, and social media page. The primary target audience is males aged 18-24 and the secondary is males 25-44 who are middle class. Research has included audience surveys to determine preferences, analyzing existing similar materials to understand required elements, and practicing relevant skills in photography and Photoshop. A schedule is provided outlining tasks over 10 weeks, including production, evaluation, and development. The bibliography cites target audience interviews, online videos about film marketing and analysis, and a survey link to inform the project planning.
This document outlines a lesson plan on revising ideas about audience for a media exam. It includes learning objectives, success criteria, and a series of tasks to help students understand key concepts like demographics, psychographics, and how to analyze a film's audience. It provides examples analyzing the audiences of the film "Us" and discusses how large media conglomerates differ from independent producers in meeting audience wants and needs. Students are prompted to reflect on how the lesson fits with their other learning.
The document provides an agenda for a teacher candidate class that includes a picture book lesson presentation, connecting writing expectations to current events, professional learning communities, and an example lesson. It also previews what will be covered the following week, including an online forum post and professional learning community activities. Students are asked to complete a survey for an educational research study on literacy beliefs that is optional and separate from course requirements.
This document is a proposal for a final major project (FMP) creating promotional materials for a horror film. The proposed project will include creating trailers, DVD cover art, posters, and a magazine article. Research will include analyzing existing promotional materials to inspire creative ideas. The target audience is identified as 16-24 year old males due to the horror genre. Production will involve filming, editing music, and designing promotional assets in software like Photoshop and Premiere Pro. Progress will be evaluated through weekly reflections and surveys to gather feedback on strengths and weaknesses. A timeline schedules tasks over 10 weeks including research, production experiments, filming, and a final evaluation.
The document provides guidance for planning a digital graphic narrative project, outlining key considerations around costs, available resources, quantity, audience, quality factors, codes of practice, regulations, copyright, ethics, and health and safety. It also includes templates for a production schedule and resources checklist to help structure the planning process. Potential risks are identified along with suggestions for how to prevent issues like repetitive strain injury, eye strain, spills, and tripping hazards during the project work.
The document is a career report assignment with four parts. In part one, the student investigates and summarizes information about a career in fashion design. Part two involves completing career personality and interest assessments through an online tool. The results are summarized. Part three involves completing a separate personality test and analyzing the results. Part four involves setting short and long term career goals and outlining strategies to achieve them.

Designing
a

to
help
people
brand
their
personal
identity
Who are you? A cool-as designer, a surfer dude, a sports star, a coder, a book-loving
geek? Who am I? An intellectual, an existentialist writer, a dancer?
Throughout our lives we express our personal identity in many different ways.
Sometimes this is through direct interaction with people, but more and more we
present ourselves online via digital media. We tweet how we feel about that person
who ‘stole our’ car park from us, post our dream holiday destination on Facebook,
compose songs, design invitations, manipulate photos – all using digital software.
Some of this expression results in permanent artefacts – photos, recorded music –
other things are more temporary – phone conversations with friends, live music.
Your task, this semester, is to design a system that will help people to brand their
personal identity. Phase I of this project involves understanding how people currently
deal with their personal expression. The aim of the activities in this phase of the
project is for you to immerse yourself in the real-world context and issues involved in
producing, managing, and sharing expression of personal identity, both online and in
the real world/offline.
You can interpret ‘expression of personal identity’ very broadly. Some things you
consider might be active presentations of an artistic nature such as music, art or
writing. Other aspects of personal identity might be happening more subconsciously
such as the choice what food to eat, what sports to play or which friends to have;
people might not perceive this as expression of their personal identity, nevertheless it
forms a big part of it.
This understanding of context should be deep enough to prepare you to perform a
detailed design of a system to support people in producing, managing and expressing
their personal identity; the system should enable users to ‘brand their personal
identity’. You will create and evaluate this design in Phase II. In Phase III, you will
implement and evaluate a proof-of-concept prototype of the Phase II design.
Phase I consists of 5 steps. There are deliverables associated with each of these steps.
Step
1:
Self-‐observation
and
self-‐interview:
how
do
you
express
your
own
identity?
In this step, you will analyse your own behaviour in expressing your personal
identity: the strategies, applications, and resources that you use. Note that you might,
or might not, have previously thought of yourself as expressing or branding your
personal identity; here, we’re defining personal id.
The document is a proposal for a final major project creating a horror film. The primary target audience is males aged 18-24 and the secondary is males 25-44. Research was conducted through surveys showing horror is the most popular genre. The project will include a DVD cover, poster, merchandise (t-shirt and toy), and social media page. Skills in photography, Photoshop, and layout design will be practiced and improved upon. Progress will be evaluated through weekly reflections and blog posts discussing successes, challenges, and areas for growth. A schedule outlines the plan over 10 weeks, beginning with research and proposal, followed by production, evaluation, and development.

2.
THE FORMAT
The paper should be between four and six double-spaced, typewritten pages…but if you want to write more, you can and should.
Please include a cover page with your name and the title of your paper (or the name of the image) at the front, and include a good quality copy of the image you select as the last page of your paper.
3.
CONTENTS
This paper is a visual analysis of a
single
image…it is a summation of everything you have learned in this course, as applied to the study of one single image.
Use what you have learned in this course to probe into the full meaning of the image.
Select a
single
image from any source (photo, painting, billboard, ad, etc.).
The image you pick may have multiple parts (images, words, etc.) but do not assemble a collection of images.
Pick
one
that you find absolutely fascinating, riveting, intriguing, or otherwise compelling enough to write about.
You can re-use an image you picked for one of the weekly assignments if you want, or select a new one.
4.
REQUIREMENTS
This is n
ot a research paper but a reaction paper…it is about your response to the image and what you think is important about it, what you notice in it, what you feel gives it its impact or its meaning in all the ways we have discussed.
No need for footnotes. If you want to use any quotes from the articles, chapters, or other texts just put the words within quote marks and state where they come from.
Like this:
As Ada Louise Huxtable says in the article
Living with the Fake and Learning to Love It,
“Distinctions are no longer made or deemed necessary between the real and the false.”
Other than a sentence or two as a cited quote from someone else, this paper MUST BE IN YOUR OWN WORDS or it will not be accepted.
5.
THE STRUCTURE
After the cover page, the paper itself should be in six parts:
Introduction
Write a paragraph or two introducing the image and explaining what attracted you
to it in the first place, why you thought it was interesting enough to write about.
Analysis
The bulk of the paper is going through the four approaches to meaning one by one
(Content, Appearance, Use, Context) and relating these to the image just as you
have done separately for various weekly image assignments.
Content: what are the important things you see in the image and how and
why do they contribute to the impact?
Appearance: what visual elements (colors, shapes, lines, etc.) and visual
principles (balance, hierarchy, etc.) seem to matter in this image
and why do they matter?
Use:
what aspects of how the image is being used matter here?
Who do
you think is using the image and in what ways and for what
purposes?
Context:
what else that you know or find out about the image seems to
affect it’s meaning or impact?
Summary
The last paragraph or two should summarize what you have said in the paper and
relate the points you have made to the reason the image has an impact on you.

The document provides an initial reaction and plans from Bailey Dyble for creating a magazine. Bailey was excited but unfamiliar with magazines and had no ideas for content. Worries included not knowing celebrities to feature without their photos. A mind map and mood board were created to help determine the magazine's focus. The mood board showed connections between sports and successful individuals through cars and money earned from enjoyed activities like sports. The schedule outlines the production process over 5 weeks, including research, planning, covers, articles, and a final evaluation. At least 7 sources are planned for content, including audience interviews.

Generation Gaps: Changes in the Workplace due to
Differing Generational Values
Carbary Kelly, Fredericks Elizabeth, Mishra Bharat and Mishra Jitendra*

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to discuss the
generational gaps that are found in the workplace
today. With multiple generations working together,
and the oldest generation having to work longer and
retire later, generational changes are occurring in the
workplace and for management. There is a lack of
communication and understanding between the
different generations caused through differing values
and goals. Younger generations are also entering
different fields than those that were popular for older
generations. There is a serious new problem in the
workplace, and it has nothing to do with downsizing,
global competition, pointy-haired bosses, stress or
greed. Instead, it is the problem of distinct
generations — the Veterans, the Baby Boomers, Gen
X and Gen Y — working together and often colliding
as their paths cross.
Individuals with different values, different ideas,
different ways of getting things done and different
ways of communicating in the workplace have always
existed. So, why is this becoming a problem now? At
work, generation differences can affect everything
including recruiting, building teams, dealing with
change, motivating, managing, and maintaining and
increasing productivity All of these ideas are
explored, discussed, and evaluated, through looking
at current research on the topic and case studies that
have been conducted not only in the United States but
around the world.
Keywords: Generation gap, workplace, values.
Introduction
Throughout the years, as the population has continued to
both grow and age, it has caused generational changes to
take place in the various aspects of life. With the changes in
the demographics of the world’s population, there have also
been changes in how each group thinks and what they
value. This not only affects the way people behave in their
personal lives, but it also affects the workplace. As
generational changes occur in the workplace, a lack of
communication has caused adisconnect to occur between
the values and goals present among the different age groups
along with newer generations choosing different career
paths.
* Author for Correspondence
In order to understand where these differences stem from,
you need to analyze how each generation is different when
it comes to their beliefs and values. So, it is best to identify
the different groups present in workplace which range from
those born in 1922 to those born in the early 1990’s.

Advocating for Early Childhood Education
· What is advocacy?
Advocacy is how we support our children. We as teachers give advice for our children or we listen. We let the children and families know that we believe in them and we will be there for them. Teachers, admin, staff can advocate for children as long as they are in school. Advocates are also trained people and they are not lawyers. One of their responsibility is to stay up to date with the regulations of the educational laws.
· Why is advocacy important to early childhood education?
Its important to help the families because they might be vulnerable in society. We as teachers need to make sure our children and families are being heard. We as teachers need to make sure their wishes and views are being considered when it’s about their child or family. Its because we are helping the family make life decisions about their children and even their family life. Its also important to make sure we are not judging the family or having or our own personal opinions about what is going on when we are helping advocate for the family, we need to make sure we are stating the facts for the family.
· What is your role as an early childhood educator in making legislative changes?
Our role is to be able to email them or decide how to get a hold of them and let them know our questions, comments or suggestions on things that need to be changed, updated. We need to let them know so we can support our school, children, and families. It is our role as educators to stay aware of the laws. The Federal laws we need to make sure we are aware of the
· Family Education Rights & Poverty Act
· The No Child Left Behind
· Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
With these laws and many more they need to hear from schools in the United States. The federal laws mean we need to address the issues. These issues usually involve infringement of the student’s rights and they are to protect the rights. The state laws depend on the state you are in. The state laws this is where you would go if you have a problem or need to voice about
· Teacher Retirement
· Teacher evaluations
· Charter schools
· State Testing requirements
· The required learning standards
· Much more
Your school board is also a great place to help with policies and regulations and any revisions that need to be done.
· What ethical issues must early childhood education professionals consider related to advocacy and why do those issues exit?
In NAEYC the code of Ethical Conduct and in their it describes how any educator is required to act and what they do and not to do. At times as an educator as staff we tend to do what is the simplest or sometimes, we want to please others but when it comes to this, we must remember to follow our responsi.
Advertising is one of the most common forms of visual persuasion we .docxSALU18
Advertising is one of the most common forms of visual persuasion we encounter in everyday life. The influence of advertising in our society is persuasive and subtle. Part of its power comes from our habit of internalizing the intended messages of words and images without thinking deeply about them. Once we begin decoding the ways in which advertisements are constructed, once we view them critically, we can understand how, or if, they work as arguments. We may then make better decisions about whether to buy products and what factors convinced us or failed to convince us.
What are the different forms of advertising?
Modern media comes in many different formats, including print media (books, magazines, newspapers), television, movies, video games, music, cell phones, various kinds of software, and the Internet. Each type of media involves both content and also a device or object through which that content is delivered.
TEAM TASK:
As a team you are going to Review Chapter 4: Visual Rhetoric: Thinking About Images as Arguments. You will
be assigned a Section of the Chapter (written, visual, unfit, political, caricature, photography-maps graphs charts ) and as a Team you willResearch
the content of that Chapter Area (you will see topic page overlap ) and implement the following:
You will look at and interpret a media campaign or advertisement. Focus on social or ethical aspects * Seek to find one or more of the FALLACY TYPES identified Chapter 9 pages 363- 380. Include this information in your findings. Consider and incorporate as many of the following 16 categories :
The objectives: What role does the ad play in the economy?
The audience: Is it targeted to a group that could be considered vulnerable?
Effectiveness: Does it promote something that is socially desirable?
Role in marketing mix: What role does the ad play in the economy?
Image, product differentiation and branding: Is the ad misleading?

Adopt-a-Plant Project guidelines
Overview:
The purpose of this project is for you to choose a plant, conduct online research into the biology of the plant, and communicate what you have learned. You will be preparing an annotated bibliography on the plant you choose. The entire project is worth 50 points
Annotated Bibliography (50 points)
You will prepare an annotated bibliography with a list of the top 10 most interesting facts about your plant.
· Each fact should be paraphrased (i.e. written in your own words, no quotations allowed).
· Then tell me why this is interesting to you – make connections to your life or to currents issues in our world.
· Finally, give a full citation and tell me why you think this is a reliable, trustworthy source. Use this libguide to help you come up with reasons why your source is trustworthy.
· At least one of your sources should be from a peer-reviewed, science journal article.
Here is an example:
Fact 1: Taxol is a chemotherapy agent derived from the bark of the Pacific Yew Tree. The chemical itself is derived from a fungal endophtye within the bark. I thought this was very interesting, because the Pacific Yew tree is native to the state of Washington, and my aunt Jane received Taxol while undergoing chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. I also thought it was interesting because of the mutualistic relationship between the plant and the fungus.Citation: Plant natural products from cultured multipotent cells
Roberts, Susan; Kolewe, Martin. Nature Biotechnology28.11 (Nov 2010): 1175-6.
This is a reliable source because it is published in a peer-reviewed science journal article, written by two PhDs that are providing a review of the current literature on the topic
To complete the assignment, you should first choose a plant, gather articles discussing your plant, read the articles sufficiently enough to discuss the plant, and finally write the annotated bibliography. You are expected to produce original work, and any plagiarism will receive a zero. The paper should be double-spaced, and typed in 12 point font size, with normal margins. The instructions for how to properly cite your sources are at the end of this handout.
*** Reminder: The scientific name of a plant should always be typed in italics, with the first letter of the Genus capitalized. For ex.: Digitalis lanata. When you search for information on your plant online, make sure to use the scientific name, which will bring back a wider variety of results
The bibliography is worth 50 points and will be graded on:
1. Effort
• Quality of references
•Depth/breadth/quality of material covered
2. Following directions/ requirements
I will use the following rubric to grade your bibliography:
Research, Critical Reading and Documentation
Balanced, authoritative sources; correctly cited sources; effectively integrated outside sources. Most sources from science journals
10 pts
Effective sources, correctly cited, Could have a few more.

Adlerian-Based Positive Group Counseling Interventions w ith.docxSALU18
This summarizes an Adlerian-based positive group counseling program for emotionally troubled youth that integrated positive psychology interventions. The 12-week program used interventions from positive psychotherapy curriculum to increase positive emotion, engagement, and meaning by emphasizing strengths. Sessions focused on identifying signature strengths, cultivating strengths through goals, developing gratitude, processing good and bad memories, and expressing forgiveness as a way to increase social interest. The positive interventions aligned well with Adlerian principles of emphasizing strengths, social interest, and encouragement to help youth overcome problems.
After completing the assessment, my Signature Theme Report produ.docxSALU18
After completing the assessment, my Signature Theme Report produced the following results: Communication, Relator, Individualization, Consistency, and Strategic. When I first saw the themes presented, I was a little skeptical at first but after reading the detailed descriptions I felt like it made a lot of sense and mirrored a lot of what I had already thought about myself.
A core value that I would like to continue to strengthen would be the value of acceptance. One of my top five themes was relator which explained that I have a comfortability with gravitating towards people I already know and building relationships from there. I don’t have issues with making new relationships, but I can see that sometimes I close myself off initially to embracing new ones. With acceptance, you have to understand that there are some situations you can control and some that you can’t but embracing the latter can lead to new experiences that could be beneficial (Riley, 2021). Another core value that I would like to improve upon would be calmness. This fits in well with my theme of consistency. While I am a firm believer of things being fair and consistent, I can get easily upset when things don’t balance out like they are expected to. I know that working on being calm in tense situations will help me adapt easier when things don’t always work out as they should.
One of the strengths that I would like to embrace fully and continue to improve upon is communication. It was no surprise to me that communication was at the top of my list for my themes. When I am in a position of leadership at work, I make it a priority to keep my staff updated on everything that is going on for that night and it is something I expect from my charge nurse when I am working the floor also. A communicator is only effective when they are aware of their style of communicating and how others perceive or respond to it (Marshall & Broome, 2021). As a communicator I know that I can always work on how I communicate non-verbally and with body language especially. The other strength that I would like to continue to work on is of being strategic. The report explained that the strategic theme fit me because I am able to sort through the clutter and find the best route when I am trying to accomplish something. I really believe this about myself because when I have a task I need to accomplish, whether I am in a leader position or not, I will break everything down and reorganize it to make sure I have come up with the best solution. I feel like the best way to do something is the way that makes it concise and without a lot of excess getting in the way.
A characteristic of mine that I would like to strengthen would be that of instinct. My theme of individualization points out that I have an instinct about others and how they work and function. I have always felt that I easily read people and can get a sense of who they truly are and for example in the workplace how they are as a staff member. S.

Describe how machine learning and data analytics could have detected and/or prevented the APT you analyzed had the victim organization deployed these technologies at the time of the event. Be specific.
Part 6: Ethics in Cybersecurity.
Ethical issues are at the core of what we do as cybersecurity professionals. Think of the example of a cyber defender working in a hospital. They are charged with securing the network, medical devices, and protecting sensitive personal health information from unauthorized disclosure. They are not only protecting patient privacy but their health and perhaps even their lives. Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability - the C-I-A triad - and many other cybersecurity practices are increasingly at play in protecting citizens in all walks of life and in all sectors. Thus, acting in an ethical manner is one of the hallmarks of cybersecurity professionals.
Do you think the vulnerability(ies) exploited by the APT constitutes an ethical failure by the defender? Why or why not?
For the APT scenario your group studied, were there identifiable harms to privacy or property? How are these harms linked to C-I-A? If not, what ethically si.

Adultism refers to the oppression of young people by adults. The pop.docxSALU18
Adultism refers to the oppression of young people by adults. The popular saying "children should be seen and not heard" is used as a way to remind a child of his or her place and reaffirm the adult's power in the relationship. The saying suggests that children's voices are not as important or as valid as an adult's and they should remain quiet. Children are often relegated to subordinate positions due to socially constructed beliefs about what they can or cannot accomplish or what they should or should not do; this in turn compromises youth's self-determination. This oppression is further highlighted when considering the intersection of age with race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and sexual orientation. You will be asked to consider all of these when reviewing the Logan case and Parker case.

APPLICANT DIVERSITY STATEMENT IN FACULTY SEARCH PROCESS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1) How does University of California define “diversity?”
A: The academic senate adopted in 2009 the following broad definition of diversity:
Diversity - defining features of California past, present and future - refers to a variety of
personal experiences, values, and worldviews that arise from differences of culture and
circumstance. Such differences include race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, language,
abilities/disabilities, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, geographic region and more.
2) Why does UC Irvine expect a diversity statement from applicants for faculty positions?
A: UC Irvine’s commitment to inclusive excellence is integral to our ascendancy among globally
preeminent universities. It provides applicants with an opportunity to discuss how their past or
future contributions will advance this enduring campus commitment. For more information,
please see the Provost’s memo on Inclusive Excellence.
3) Is the diversity statement consistent with University of California policy?
A: Yes. APM 210.1-d, which governs appointment, appraisal and promotion, recommends that

Teaching, research, professional and public service contributions that promote diversity and
equal opportunity are to be encouraged and given recognition in the evaluation of the
candidate's qualifications. These contributions to diversity and equal opportunity can take
a variety of forms including efforts to advance equitable access to education, public
service that addresses the needs of California's diverse population, or research in a
scholar's area of expertise that highlights inequities.”
4) Is UC Irvine alone among UC campuses in adopting this statement?
A: No. UC San Diego adopted this statement in 2010.
5) How will applicants learn about the diversity statement expectation?
A: Per Provost Gillman’s memo of June 2014, all ads for faculty positions will include the following
sentence: “Applicants are encouraged to share how their past and/or potential contributions to
diversity, equity and inclusion will advance UC Irvine’s commitment to inclusive excellence.”
6) How do applicants provide their diversity statement?

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
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.

Assignment 3: Image Analysis
Peer Review Draft due: Friday, March 4
Initial Draft due: Monday, March 7
First Revision due: Wednesday, March 23
Rhetoric surrounds us in our everyday lives. On a daily basis,
we encounter rhetoric through multiple avenues,
through the arguments we create and even through the
advertisements we encounter that try to sell us different
products. Thinking about how we encounter rhetoric helps us
understand the world around us, and it can even
sometimes mean that we can engage it to understand a particular
culture or way of thinking. Rhetoric is usually
associated with creating an argument, but it can also even mean
constructing yourself into the world, whether
that is through the physical act of writing or even through how
we dress and act. Understanding rhetoric is
hugely important in helping us both break down any kind of
writing to fully understand what is being said.
Equally important, being aware of rhetoric and the different
rhetorical moves we can make helps us to create
our own texts as well.
Part of what we will do with this assignment is engage with how
rhetoric actually works by fully breaking down
the rhetorical situation of an image. We will be discussing
what the rhetorical situation is in class, but
basically, it is a method of analysis where rhetoric is broken
2. down into four different constituents: audience,
rhetor, constraints, and exigence. Understanding all four of
those constituents can better help us understand
the rhetoric behind a situation, a paper, and even an image.
For this assignment, what you’ll do is select an image and
analyze it using the rhetorical situation lens. This
image can be up to your choosing, but some options can include
a photograph, a painting, an advertisement
(these are particularly useful in this assignment), a meme, or
even a particular style of clothing or someone’s
particular style choice. (Although I’d be open to using videos as
well, take some caution that this might be too
difficult to tackle in a four to five page paper). Using this
image, the writer will make some sort of argument
about the rhetoric they see surrounding the image. I will
approve your selections, and you will need to
submit your selection of the image you want to analyze on USA
Online by Wednesday, February
24.
Invention and Drafting
In order to put this paper together, you will have to select an
image that you think warrants analysis. Select the
image and try to pick apart what you see happening. This could
range from the colors of the image to the
activities you see happening in the image to even the words that
are on the image. As you are analyzing, it may
be helpful to ask yourself these questions:
1. Who is the audience for this image? What is used in the
image to work to persuade or grab the attention
of the audience?
3. 2. What kind of constraints does the rhetor have in creating the
image? What constraints did the rhetor not
acknowledge when creating the image?
3. What is the exigence for creating the image? Is it to see
something differently? To persuade an
audience to action? To get the audience to buy a product?
4. What kind of colors does my image use? How can this affect
how I interpret the image?
5. Who are the people in the image? What might their
personality or actions tell us about the image?
6. What kind of words are on the image? How might those
words explain what is happening in the
revision?
Keep in mind here that your goal is not to answer all of these
questions, but to instead find some sort of theme
or angle that works for your paper.
Requirements
Your literary analysis MUST do the following things:
1. Your paper must discuss an image of some sort, whether
that’s be a photograph, a meme, a painting, an
advertisement, or even a person’s clothing choices. You MUST
turn in a copy of this image.
4. 2. You will analyze this image using the four elements of the
rhetorical situation (rhetor, exigence,
audience, and constraints). All four elements must be engaged
in your paper.
3. Your paper must make some sort of central argument about
the rhetorical situation of your image. This
could be what you see is happening in the photo. Another
possibility is that you could even make an
argument that the components of the image do not match up
with the rhetoric that is being used. Make
this your own project, but finding that central argument will
really boost your paper.
4. There must be a clear thesis statement that engages your
central argument.
5. Your paper has to include three sources that helps the writer
with their analysis. Two of those can be
from the readings we have engaged in class. One of them
needs to be an outside source.
Who Is Your Audience?
Your audience is a group of scholars in the field of composition
and rhetoric who are interested in seeing how
students see and interpret images. Therefore, you need to make
sure that you construct your argument so that
your own opinions of the image you have chosen is present.
You must make a unique argument about what
you see is happening in your image.
