Touchstone 3.2 Draft an Argumentative Research Essay
July 16, 2020
Recent pandemic, commonly referred to as COVID 19, has changed the world dynamics. This disease has not just crashed the world health system but has also impacted the global education system. COVID 19 has made our daily routine vulnerable. Still, the precautionary measures such as social distancing have not just impacted the social life of human beings. Still, they have also altered the Present and the future of the global learning system. According to the UNESCO report, the nationwide termination of educations institutes has obstructed over 60% of the world's learner’s populace, with approximately 1.53 billion learners out of learning institutes. Many educationists believe that with the current circumstance, the drop-out rate of students across the globe will increase in the near future because of the disruption in the system. Though many parents and institutes are still in denial of the changes that have occurred due to the pandemic, educationists and research indicate that the current alteration in the global education system will not be short-lived and will have a profound impact on the future means of education.

Education System during Pandemic Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: If you are going to use headings, use them throughout the paper, including for your Introduction and Conclusion.
The recent survey shows that around 22 countries in three continents have closed their learning system on local and state levels because of COVID 19. Such massive disruption has pushed educators and institutions to opt for new means of education, such as online learning and instructional tutoring. However, such means of education has also exposed other crucial factors, such as inconsistent resource allocation and social and economic differences. The historical research on the impact of school closure depicts that even a brief intervention in school activities has a h.
The Paradigm Shift in the Indian Education System during COVID19: Impact, Opp...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
The COVID-19 pandemic is a huge challenge to education systems. Education is the main priority direction and main development indicator in all civilized countries of the world. The COVID-19 global pandemic has upended all the education system across the world. In this time of crisis, a well-rounded and effective educational practice is what is needed for the capacity-building of young minds. It will develop skills that will drive their employability, productivity, health, and well-being in the decades to come, and ensure the overall progress of India. This research paper tries to investigate on the various impact of Covid-19 in education system especially on rural India. We also try to throw light on the different existing and new initiatives by government during the pandemic. The novel coronavirus has transformed the centuries-old, chalk–talk teaching model to one driven by technology. The last 50 years have seen huge growth worldwide in the provision of education at all levels. COVID-19 is the greatest challenge that these expanded national education systems have ever faced. Many governments have ordered institutions to cease face-to-face instruction for most of their students, requiring them to switch, almost overnight, to online teaching and virtual education. We see a drastic rise in the use of various teaching and conferencing technologies which has been explained in this paper, also various advantages and disadvantages to the students in the use of these technologies have been covered in this research paper by identifying opportunities and trends. Finally research has been concluded by providing avenues to future research and a meaningful conclusion.

WEB-BASED LEARNING IN PERIODS OF CRISIS: REFLECTIONS ON THE IMPACT OF COVID-19ijcsit
Education systems and its actors are generally responding to quarantine and large-scale shutdown (partial) of cities with a sudden shift to Web-Based Learning. However, given that a pandemic of this nature and scale is novel, there is a knowledge gap as to how teachers and learners should respond to the shift, and what the likely impact and the key considerations should be. This study aims to extrapolate and theorize from the existing knowledgebase about the use of Web-Based Learning, as well as from an expert and practitioner wisdom and experience, to offer high-level guidance for policymakers and education system actors that are forced to make decisions in fast-moving and very challenging circumstances with little guidance or relevant experience. It is an early attempt at theorizing the impact of the pandemic on two key actors (Learners and Teachers) and one interface (Content), all across eight dimensions of learning. The analysis is based on Khan’s (2001) dimension of Web-Based Learning and Anderson’s (2011) Model of Online Learning. Overall, we posit based on experience and practice, that the pandemic has delivered severe shocks to both the demand and supply side of Web-Based Learning, with Leaners, Teachers, and Content all significantly affected. While we hypothesize a general drop in the quality of teaching and learning in the short run, we expect the opposite to be the case in the long run, when the demand and supply side self-correct, albeit guided by strong government and market institutions.

Capstone in Interprofessional Informatic // IMPACT OF COVID 19 ON EDUCATIONLakpaYanziSherpa
In my capstone project, I investigated the impact of COVID-19 on education. Using data analysis and statistical methods, I explored various aspects such as enrollment trends, access to resources, and socioeconomic disparities. I found a significant association between children missing classes and a lack of internet connection at home, as well as between household financial situations and children's enrollment in school. These findings highlight the importance of addressing disparities in internet access, household finances, and geographical location to ensure equal educational opportunities for all students during and beyond the pandemic.

The Adoption of Online Teaching and Learning strategy in Tertiary Learning In...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT:The teaching and learning process has been a big revolution since Corona Virus Disease 19
(COVID-19) has spread out to the world. This paper assessed adoption of Online Teaching and Learning in the
Midst of COVID-19 in Tertiary Learning Institutions in Tanzania. Specifically, the study examined readiness
level of students and teachers on the practices of online teaching and learning strategy during COVID-19 and
lock down; the attitude of students towards online teaching and learning; and online teaching and learning
facilities in Tertiary Learning Institutions in Tanzania. A case study research design was adopted while a sample
of 87 respondents was selected using judgemental sampling technique. Data was collected through a
questionnaire tool while descriptive statistics was used for data analysis. The findings revealed that57.5% of
students were ready to learn though online services. On other hand the findings revealed that college
management and staff were not ready to adopt online teaching and learning strategy. The reluctant of staffs
were caused by inadequate online learning resources, incapability of staff, and absence of policies and
guidelines issued by government on application of online teaching and learning programs. The study concludes
that although there was high degree of readiness of students and internet accessibility, the adoption of online
teaching and learning strategy was impossible due to inadequate facilities. Therefore, the study recommend to
the government to establish and issue the policies and guidelines about the application of online teaching and
learning technologies.
Key words: Online Teaching and Learning, Tertiary Learning Institutions, COVID-19, Online learning

During the COVID -19 pandemic, educational institutions around the world faced problems that have to do
with the frustration of students for whom traditional education has been replaced by the online format.
Students are experiencing technical difficulties in the digitalization of education. International monitoring
of education systems has shown that quite a few countries were ready to move to distance learning, both for
technical and economic reasons. The covid pandemic has caused an increase in educational inequality. Elearning systems were expected to reduce inequality in education, but empirical research has shown that
learning in this format not only does not reduce, but can increase inequality, increasing the gap in
educational outcomes between students with different socioeconomic status. The article describes
applications of using voice recognition technology based on artificial intelligence which, by our opinion,
may reduce educational inequality during covid-19. We presented a comparative analysis of existing
examples artificial intelligence in the educational process.

La COVID-19 ha irrumpido en la vida de los seres humanos causando efectos devastadores en la salud y en la vida de gran parte de la población mundial, afectando a las esferas sociales, económicas y educativas del planeta. La comunidad científica se encuentra ante uno de sus mayores retos para resolver un problema sanitariode alcance global como es la pandemia del COVID-19. Esta situación ha generado un volumen de publicaciones sin precedentes. El impacto del COVID-19 en la enseñanzaha supuesto que los momentos de contacto social hayan desaparecido a cambio de reuniones, clases, exámenes o encuentros virtuales. En este escenario, las aulas universitarias al volver a abrirse no serán las mismas, tampoco sus campus ni espacios del ámbito educativo, deberán aportan creatividad en el a la hora de organizarse y usarse. El objetivo del estudio fue identificar las publicaciones científicas relacionadas con los efectos del COVID-19 en las aulas universitarias durante el período 2019 hasta la actualidad. Para esto, se realizó un análisis bibliométrico de la literatura científica. Se identificaron 676documentos sobre esta temática. Los resultados del análisis revelaron que la productividad científica se ha incrementado desde enero de 2020 con más de 650 artículos sobre la enfermedad, verificando el profundo interés por el COVID-19 en todas las disciplinas. Las principales tendencias de investigación incluyen el impacto de la vuelta a las aulas con los efectos en los procesos cognitivos, motivaciones y del rendimiento académico de los estudiantes.
Undergraduate Student’s Perspectives on E-learning during COVID-19 Outbreak i...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
As education moves e-learning all over the world due to COIVD-19 pandemic, students spend more time on e-learning than ever before. This is also equally applied to the Sri Lankan education system. Thus this study examines the undergraduate students’ perspectives on e-learning during the COVID-19 outbreak in universities in Sri Lanka. Primary data was obtained from undergraduate students in Sri Lankan university using a structured questionnaire via Google form. The perspectives on e-learning education during the COVID-19 pandemic was investigated using descriptive statistics and frequency analysis. The majority of the undergraduate students felt that the e-learning version of education saved travel time and cost of accommodation. Furthermore, the study revealed that the majority of students were happy with the e-learning form of education during the pandemic since it allowed them to finish their degrees faster and access the labor market without a delay. The biggest challenges with e-learning, according to the student responses, were internet access, device availability, visionary issues, technical issues, and stress. As a result of this COVID -19 pandemic, if higher education officials in Sri Lankan universities want to keep e-learning education on going, they must focus on offering cost-effective, high-speed data connections while minimizing technological hurdles. At the same time, it is important to update and revise the curriculum content according to this new mode of education since this is a completely new situation for all. There is relatively little research on students’ perspectives on e-learning education during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Sri Lankan context and it will provide some important highlights to the researchers, parent and academics as well.
This literature review is focused on the rallying cry in the transition to post-pandemic education in the Philippines. The country experienced a series of lockdowns that catapulted prolonged closures of school premises for more than eighteen months and was considered the last country to reopen. As steps to conduct and resume limited in-person classes, selected schools have led the priming for the gradual transition, but the implications of readapting educational landscapes remain an emerging challenge to be dealt with. To delimit the discussion of educational reviews, subtopics were articulated, these are: 1) Integration of Health in Education; 2) Hybrid Learning; 3) Online Learning Space; 4) Assessment and Evaluation Methods; and 5) Enhancing Data Security. This paper reiterates the recalibration of curriculum from the basic and the higher institutions, the campaign for proactive thinking of curriculum planners as well as the underscore of insights that the online and hybrid learning will be mainstay imperative as the country adjusts and awaits the ebbing of the COVID-19.

The current pandemic situation has affected half the world’s students with partial or full closure of their schools. Some schools have started online classes for the students but due to many technological barriers, many students are unable to join these classes. According to the news reports, there were more than 55 percent schools that had seen a reduction in the number of new admission in the new academic year. Many parents have lost their jobs during the pandemic and were forced to stop the education of many students. As per a new report by UNICEF, child labor has increased to 160 million in 2021 which is the first-ever increase in the last two decades for this number. In another report by UNICEF, the impact of COVID-19 has led to an increase in child marriages in some parts of India that account for half of the child marriages all over the world. The lockdown and the financial crisis all over the country have only increased the cases of child marriages and child labor in many parts of the world especially third world countries.

Abstract: The COVID-19 disease which first appeared in Wuhan, in the Hubei province of China, in December
2019 was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020.Within a very short span
of time it lead to an unexperienced worldwide public health crisis. In order to prevent the worldwide spread of the
novel coronavirus disease universities, schools, and many other educational institutions have been either partially
or completely closed in many countries, by national governments. Problem of disengagement, shortage of
attendance and deterioration in academic achievement was experienced by many children and youth during the
pandemic. With the closure of schools and the postponement of face-to-face lessons in many countries due to the
COVID-19 pandemic, the education activities at all levels primary, secondary, high school and higher education
level as well were soon affected. In order to compensate the interrupted educational activities, due to the onset of
the COVID-19 pandemic, it became important for educational institutions to develop and implement effective
strategies in order to remodel the changes that occurred due to pandemic. Shifting towards fully-online learning
was a speedy yet necessary reflex to the coronavirus crisis. Therefore in order to provide effective learningteaching environment increased importance was given to the use of information technologies in education from the
beginning. Countries took quick steps towards digital transformation in education, and focus was given to the use
of distance learning, teaching, and assessment approaches, which was not very common prior to the pandemic.
The present situation is considered as the biggest education crisis in human history.

Essay Topics:
The Loss of Individual Rights in
1984
:
Personal privacy and space is never granted throughout
1984
. Every person is always subject to observation, even by their own family members and friends. Furthermore, since Big Brother is always watching and the Thought Police are always on the lookout, it is impossible for any kind of individualism to flourish. For this essay you can look at the ways this occurs and how various characters attempt (successfully or not) to subvert it. Then move out to consider how this lack of privacy (and by proxy, individualism) influences individuals and society as a whole in the present day. How does the present US Government subvert the rights of the individual and how does this compare to the novel?
Fear of Technology
: During WWII, technology was primarily developed for military purposes, specifically for the surveillance of the enemy. People are generally resistant to technology that they believe can be used against them. George Orwell’s novel
1984
plays on this inherent fear of technology. Discuss the role of technology in Oceania. In what areas is technology highly advanced, and in what areas has its progress stalled? Why? How is it used against the people? To control them? How does this reflect the human fear of technology during the time the novel was written? How does this fear carry over in the modern world? Is it valid? How can technology be used against the common man to violate individual rights? How does this compare to the novel?

Using Voice Recognition in E-Learning System to Reduce Educational Inequality...IJCSEA Journal
During the COVID -19 pandemic, educational institutions around the world faced problems that have to do with the frustration of students for whom traditional education has been replaced by the online format. Students are experiencing technical difficulties in the digitalization of education. International monitoring of education systems has shown that quite a few countries were ready to move to distance learning, both for technical and economic reasons. The covid pandemic has caused an increase in educational inequality. E learning systems were expected to reduce inequality in education, but empirical research has shown that learning in this format not only does not reduce, but can increase inequality, increasing the gap in educational outcomes between students with different socioeconomic status. The article describes applications of using voice recognition technology based on artificial intelligence which, by our opinion, may reduce educational inequality during covid-19. We presented a comparative analysis of existing examples artificial intelligence in the educational process. Artificial intelligence uses in specialized software it makes educational process more convenient for both the students and the teachers. There is a description of an application “Academic phrase bank" developed by author. The application consists of two specialising actions for Google assistant.

La COVID-19 ha irrumpido en la vida de los seres humanos causando efectos devastadores en la salud y en la vida de gran parte de la población mundial, afectando a las esferas sociales, económicas y educativas del planeta. La comunidad científica se encuentra ante uno de sus mayores retos para resolver un problema sanitariode alcance global como es la pandemia del COVID-19. Esta situación ha generado un volumen de publicaciones sin precedentes. El impacto del COVID-19 en la enseñanzaha supuesto que los momentos de contacto social hayan desaparecido a cambio de reuniones, clases, exámenes o encuentros virtuales. En este escenario, las aulas universitarias al volver a abrirse no serán las mismas, tampoco sus campus ni espacios del ámbito educativo, deberán aportan creatividad en el a la hora de organizarse y usarse. El objetivo del estudio fue identificar las publicaciones científicas relacionadas con los efectos del COVID-19 en las aulas universitarias durante el período 2019 hasta la actualidad. Para esto, se realizó un análisis bibliométrico de la literatura científica. Se identificaron 676documentos sobre esta temática. Los resultados del análisis revelaron que la productividad científica se ha incrementado desde enero de 2020 con más de 650 artículos sobre la enfermedad, verificando el profundo interés por el COVID-19 en todas las disciplinas. Las principales tendencias de investigación incluyen el impacto de la vuelta a las aulas con los efectos en los procesos cognitivos, motivaciones y del rendimiento académico de los estudiantes.
Undergraduate Student’s Perspectives on E-learning during COVID-19 Outbreak i...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
As education moves e-learning all over the world due to COIVD-19 pandemic, students spend more time on e-learning than ever before. This is also equally applied to the Sri Lankan education system. Thus this study examines the undergraduate students’ perspectives on e-learning during the COVID-19 outbreak in universities in Sri Lanka. Primary data was obtained from undergraduate students in Sri Lankan university using a structured questionnaire via Google form. The perspectives on e-learning education during the COVID-19 pandemic was investigated using descriptive statistics and frequency analysis. The majority of the undergraduate students felt that the e-learning version of education saved travel time and cost of accommodation. Furthermore, the study revealed that the majority of students were happy with the e-learning form of education during the pandemic since it allowed them to finish their degrees faster and access the labor market without a delay. The biggest challenges with e-learning, according to the student responses, were internet access, device availability, visionary issues, technical issues, and stress. As a result of this COVID -19 pandemic, if higher education officials in Sri Lankan universities want to keep e-learning education on going, they must focus on offering cost-effective, high-speed data connections while minimizing technological hurdles. At the same time, it is important to update and revise the curriculum content according to this new mode of education since this is a completely new situation for all. There is relatively little research on students’ perspectives on e-learning education during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Sri Lankan context and it will provide some important highlights to the researchers, parent and academics as well.
This literature review is focused on the rallying cry in the transition to post-pandemic education in the Philippines. The country experienced a series of lockdowns that catapulted prolonged closures of school premises for more than eighteen months and was considered the last country to reopen. As steps to conduct and resume limited in-person classes, selected schools have led the priming for the gradual transition, but the implications of readapting educational landscapes remain an emerging challenge to be dealt with. To delimit the discussion of educational reviews, subtopics were articulated, these are: 1) Integration of Health in Education; 2) Hybrid Learning; 3) Online Learning Space; 4) Assessment and Evaluation Methods; and 5) Enhancing Data Security. This paper reiterates the recalibration of curriculum from the basic and the higher institutions, the campaign for proactive thinking of curriculum planners as well as the underscore of insights that the online and hybrid learning will be mainstay imperative as the country adjusts and awaits the ebbing of the COVID-19.

Rudra Tiwari The Effects of COVID 19 on Educationcxxcz
Rudra Tiwari
The current pandemic situation has affected half the world’s students with partial or full closure of their schools. Some schools have started online classes for the students but due to many technological barriers, many students are unable to join these classes. According to the news reports, there were more than 55 percent schools that had seen a reduction in the number of new admission in the new academic year. Many parents have lost their jobs during the pandemic and were forced to stop the education of many students. As per a new report by UNICEF, child labor has increased to 160 million in 2021 which is the first-ever increase in the last two decades for this number. In another report by UNICEF, the impact of COVID-19 has led to an increase in child marriages in some parts of India that account for half of the child marriages all over the world. The lockdown and the financial crisis all over the country have only increased the cases of child marriages and child labor in many parts of the world especially third world countries.

Abstract: The COVID-19 disease which first appeared in Wuhan, in the Hubei province of China, in December
2019 was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020.Within a very short span
of time it lead to an unexperienced worldwide public health crisis. In order to prevent the worldwide spread of the
novel coronavirus disease universities, schools, and many other educational institutions have been either partially
or completely closed in many countries, by national governments. Problem of disengagement, shortage of
attendance and deterioration in academic achievement was experienced by many children and youth during the
pandemic. With the closure of schools and the postponement of face-to-face lessons in many countries due to the
COVID-19 pandemic, the education activities at all levels primary, secondary, high school and higher education
level as well were soon affected. In order to compensate the interrupted educational activities, due to the onset of
the COVID-19 pandemic, it became important for educational institutions to develop and implement effective
strategies in order to remodel the changes that occurred due to pandemic. Shifting towards fully-online learning
was a speedy yet necessary reflex to the coronavirus crisis. Therefore in order to provide effective learningteaching environment increased importance was given to the use of information technologies in education from the
beginning. Countries took quick steps towards digital transformation in education, and focus was given to the use
of distance learning, teaching, and assessment approaches, which was not very common prior to the pandemic.
The present situation is considered as the biggest education crisis in human history.

Essay Topics:
The Loss of Individual Rights in
1984
:
Personal privacy and space is never granted throughout
1984
. Every person is always subject to observation, even by their own family members and friends. Furthermore, since Big Brother is always watching and the Thought Police are always on the lookout, it is impossible for any kind of individualism to flourish. For this essay you can look at the ways this occurs and how various characters attempt (successfully or not) to subvert it. Then move out to consider how this lack of privacy (and by proxy, individualism) influences individuals and society as a whole in the present day. How does the present US Government subvert the rights of the individual and how does this compare to the novel?
Fear of Technology
: During WWII, technology was primarily developed for military purposes, specifically for the surveillance of the enemy. People are generally resistant to technology that they believe can be used against them. George Orwell’s novel
1984
plays on this inherent fear of technology. Discuss the role of technology in Oceania. In what areas is technology highly advanced, and in what areas has its progress stalled? Why? How is it used against the people? To control them? How does this reflect the human fear of technology during the time the novel was written? How does this fear carry over in the modern world? Is it valid? How can technology be used against the common man to violate individual rights? How does this compare to the novel?

Spring 2021
Group Summary of
Reinhard
Please work with your group (or individually) to summarize Reinhard’s article. Your summary should be two pages long, in MLA format, listing the name of each participant in your breakout room who attended and contributed for the entire session.
To begin your summary, tell who wrote the essay, the name of the essay, and what the writer’s main point or project is. As with McDonald’s you should be able to do this is one short paragraph. (
For example: In his essay, “ Disgrace and the Neighbor: An Interchange with Bill McDonald,” Coetzee scholar Kenneth Reinhard responds to Bill McDonald’s essay, arguing against McDonald’s thesis that David Lurie changes. It is Reinhart’s thesis that David Lurie does not undergo significant change in the novel. In answering McDonald, Reinhard analyzes each of Lurie’s changed vision in the context of two sets of questions—one regarding the redemptive potential of change in vision and the second regarding what it means to love one’s neighbor.
Reinhard devotes the first 1 ½ pages to this contextualization. In the middle of page 2, he announces his own project: he will respond to McDonald by questioning the redemptive nature of vision AND also questioning neighbor love. Reinhard then sets about defining and contextualizing the significance of erotic vision. On page 96, he begins his analysis of the three visions set forth by McDonald, addressing the limitations of each vision to indicate real change in Lurie. This might be the heart of your summary.
Reinhard moves from his analysis of the three visions to an analysis of neighborly love in Disgrace and the problems of living side-by-side with those whose presence may be a challenge. He places his case for the novel’s redemption in Lucy and her “blindness” to the evils she has suffered.
Once again your summary should be 2 pages long, double-spaced in MLA format.

Human Response to Trauma in In The Shadow of No Towers and Fun Home
Trauma means the response to a deeply distressing or disturbing experience that overwhelms
and diminishes their sense of self. When facing trauma, people will show different reactions. Art
Spiegelman and Alison Bechdel in In The Shadow of No Towers and Fun Home have a
similarity which they also face generation trauma. However, their generation traumas are
different in scale and period. After experiencing the trauma, their behaviors also have different
changes.
Generation trauma means a psychological trauma which occurs in a generation and can be
transferred in between generations. After the first generation people experiences the trauma, they
are capable to transfer their trauma to their children and further generations of posterity. They
may suffer mental disease such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and depression.
As for the book “In The Shadow of No Towers”, the 9/11 terrorist attack not only become
Art Spiegelman’s trauma, but also become whole American’s trauma. This incident converted to
a generation trauma of whole American at 21st century. When 9/11 terrorist attack occur, all
American are not sure what is happening at that time. All the internet connection are lost. For
Art Spiegelman, he shows a nervous and anxiousness towards the trauma. His wife and him are
walking normally on the street. But suddenly they heard that there was a crush behind them. The
author shows an awful face and realized their daughter was having class. (Art Spiegelman P2,3).
They rushed to school and found their daughter. It can show that the writer is worry about his
family members. He wants his family member to be with him at that time. However, after his
daughter had found, they walked back home and not concerned about the 9-11 attack. (4). He is
selfish when facing such a horrible terrorist attack. When facing such a big event, the writer is
just concern about his own personal interest and does not care about others.
After the 9/11 terrorist attack, Art Spiegelman and many American suffer Post-Traumatic
Stress Disorder. (Art Spiegelman P2,8,9).
In Fun Home, Alison Bechdel and her father also have trauma which the society were not
open-mindedness enough for homosexual in that generation. Most of the people are not
accept for homosexual because of the culture, law, religion, and belief, they consider
homosexual is illegal, against moral, ethics, and nature.
The difference of generation trauma between the Art Spiegelman and Alison Bechdel.
Art Spiegelman and Alison Bechdel also experience generation trauma through In The
Shadow of No Towers and Fun Home. Although their trauma are different in scale and period,
the trauma affect a lot to them and change their behavior and lives.

English 101 - Reminders and Help for Rhetorical Analysis Paragraph.docxbudabrooks46239
English 101 - Reminders and Help for Rhetorical Analysis Paragraphs
1. Remember the “Rule of Thirds” for Body Paragraphs (Besides BP1 on Essay II)
Top 1/3 of Paragraph (about 4-5 sentences) – your development of an idea stated through a clear topic sentence and a group of follow up sentences that explain and ‘analyze’ the point.
-(P) main point of paragraph in the topic sentence
-(I) follow up and explanation of the idea, how it is true and its importance
Middle 1/3 of paragraph (4-5 sentences) – this section should be focused on ‘support’ of your that will in a sense prove the idea presented
-(E) Use of a specific example/evidence from the text or perhaps a ‘universal’ example to display and ‘show’ your audience what you mean or perhaps a secondary source
Final 1/3 (4-5 sentences) – summarize and reassert your main point in a fresh way.
-(S) Returning to your main point – you may have to transition out of your example to return back to your main idea. Be sure to restate it and perhaps change the context to analyze it in a new way.
2. Help Developing Main Points – Rhetorical Analysis
The I and S sections carry a lot of ‘weight’ because they are the areas where a student writer can show the depth of their thinking and comprehension of the idea presented. This is especially true with rhetorical analysis paragraphs: Target Audience, Message, Manipulation/Persuasion, Effectiveness, and/or Effect (an indiv. essay will not have all of these).
Asking questions of your main point is a great way to ‘dig’ for development of your idea. Here are some example questions for each RA paragraph that may help you plan/develop your I and S sections:
A. Target Audience (TA) – Why has this audience been chosen by the ‘company’/advertiser/text? What does knowing this TA tell you about the ad’s purpose/message? Why/how is this audience susceptible to the purpose/message of text.
B. Message – Why is this message being used by the ‘text’? How/why is this message meaningful to the audience? What is the message trying to make the audience feel or believe?
C. Manipulation/Persuasion – Explain a specific method/way the text tries to persuade the audience. How does this method of persuasion ‘work’ within the text? More generally, why is this approach to manipulation/persuasion used?
D. ***Effectiveness*** (prob. a paragraph only for ads) – How/why does the ad succeed or fail in its purpose? What could be done to make the ad more effective?
E. Effect – How does the add connect to, support, or create a problem in the real world? How/why does ad have this impact? How does the ‘effect’ benefit or damage the real life of audience?

Assignment #2: Mis and Dis
Purpose and Logistics:
Normally, as we work on assignment #2 in ENGL 301B we would be revisiting key structural elements of essays more advanced than the Five-Paragraph-Style (FPS) Essay. However, many of the lessons that I usually use for this assignment to focus on global organization are activities that (despite my best efforts) are activities that I don’t have an easy fix for to convert them to activities that can be done at home or online. So this is going to be a bit awkward.
Instead, we’ll drill down on paragraph development and strategies for introductory paragraphs and concluding paragraphs.
Moreover, since many (but not all) of you are taking the class C/NC instead of for a letter grade, some of you will only plan to write two out of class essays instead of all three.
This assignment topic should be completed by all students taking the class who DO NOT plan to use A1 in the final portfolio. It’s another argumentative, thesis-driven essay, and every passing portfolio should have one. A3 is a more narrative topic (although it does involve some heavy-duty analysis.)
However, I am mindful that even though this assignment has two topic options, both of them may be close enough to current events that students who either struggle with issues of anxiety or who are easily distracted by news in our current study and work environments might find this assignment hard to complete, even if you choose to focus on political mis and dis instead of public health mis and dis. (Those terms will make sense soon.)
To that end, I am posting the materials for A2 and A3 at the same time and asking students to make the choices that work best for them when selecting which assignment to work on next.
When we hold online classes, we may divide up into A2 and A3 groups to discuss the topics. Stay tuned for details.

ENGL2310 Essay 2 Assignment Due by Saturday, June 13, a.docxbudabrooks46239
ENGL2310: Essay 2 Assignment Due by Saturday, June 13, at 11:59pm Central
The Essay 2 assignment builds on the analytical skills you displayed in Essay 1, asking you to deepen those skills by applying two lenses to the readings. We’re also adding in our Weeks 5 and 6 reading, Heart of Darkness, a work of 20th-century literature. Exploring the intersection of two different themes is an opportunity to narrow your scope even further, giving you a stronger foundation for analysis.
For this assignment, you have the option to submit the essay as a normal Word document or as a digital text called a Sway. This is a chance to get experience with digital writing before the Final Project. (Here’s an example of a Sway that introduces postcolonial theory.) A multimodal approach with Sway opens many creative possibilities, but those should all be in service of enhancing a deep analysis.
Whichever mode of delivery you choose, the essay should have the elements of a scholarly literary analysis: APA or MLA citation style (you can skip the abstract!); a narrow, arguable thesis statement; separate supporting ideas with topic sentences/transitions; and a dynamic conclusion.
In this essay, you are expected to do the following:
1. Select two of the themes of postcolonial theory that you would like to explore. These will be the lenses through which you look at the literature. You’re more than welcome to stick to the same initial theme you chose for Essay 1 and add in a new one, or you could choose two entirely new themes to apply.
2. Describe the lenses and explain how/why they represent a promising combination. Why are they worthwhile to discuss in relationship to one another? How do they inform one another? How does the combination limit your approach in helpful, constructive, or opportune ways? Be specific.
3. Apply that lens to The Epic of Gilgamesh, The Tempest, and Heart of Darkness. This should be the bulk of your writing. How do the themes function within the story? What specific moments in the story are valuable for drawing deeper insights about the intersection between the two themes? Include balanced textual evidence, not simply general statements about the plot elements or characters. Ultimately, the analysis should answer this question: what do these three stories reveal about how these themes combine? What insight(s) can we take from the readings that apply beyond the literature?
Additional advice:
Your essay should be a postcolonial analysis, not just a character study or a general discussion of symbols in the literature. The focus on colonial relationships should not be difficult to maintain, especially as we’re tying in 20th-century literature that’s directly tied to actual colonial events. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re having trouble working through ideas or weighing your options.
As you can see in the rubric, a specific length is not part of the grading criteria, but successful essays are generally bet.

ENGL 151 Research Essay
Assignment Details
Value: 25% (additional 5% for Draft/Peer Review)
Due Date: Draft—Jun 10
Final—June 19
Length: 1500 words (does not count the references list)
Instructions
Write a 1,500 word argumentative essay in which you communicate and defend a thesis about a specific topic you have begun researching over the first four weeks of the term.
While your essay is based on your own opinion about a topic, the strength of your essay will depend on your ability to anticipate objections/questions from critical readers and address them by collecting and integrating supporting evidence from other texts. As always, I expect your argument to be thorough, well-reasoned, and concise. Don’t waste space with empty words.
Your analysis should have a strong, clear structure. As a guide, consider our standard conceptualization of essay format:
· Introduction paragraph containing (among other things) a clear thesis
· Body paragraphs discussing one aspect of the argument to support your thesis
· Conclusion paragraph that reminds readers of the thesis and major supporting ideas
Your essay must be formatted according to APA 7th edition guidelines, and you must cite both quotations and paraphrasing in APA style, which includes a References list.
Research
You must incorporate information from a minimum of five reliable and appropriate sources in your essay, at least one of which must be a scholarly article from the Camosun library database. Texts providing only general information (eg. dictionaries, encyclopedias, wikis) are not appropriate sources. Web resources from reliable sources (eg. American Medical Association, Statistics Canada) can be valuable, but extreme caution should be used when defining “reliable”. If you’re in doubt, discuss with other students and/or contact me.
Academic Honesty
Remember, plagiarism is a very serious offence. All borrowed material must be cited using APA style, and any paraphrasing must be significantly re-worded from the original material.
I expect you to limit the length of your quotations (all under 40 words long).
Essay Draft: Process and Grading
1. On Wednesday, June 10, before 12:00pm (noon), you will submit a draft of your research essay to the Essay Draft Drop Box on our D2L page. Your draft should be
· a complete essay that may lack the polish of a final draft
· fully cited in APA style, including in-text citations and a references list
· formatted in APA style (see sample on D2L)
· submitted without your name on it (don’t include it on the title page)
2. I will email you another student’s draft by 5:00pm the same day, and you will use the Peer Review Guide to give feedback on the student’s essay. The review process should only take 60 minutes max (that’s how long I give my students when we do this in class).
3. You will submit your feedback to the Peer Review Drop Box on D2L before Thursday, June 11, at 5:00pm.
The draft will be graded on a pass/fail basis. Failing to su.

Instructor's Guide
Introduction To The Case
On January 28, 1986, seven astronauts were killed when the space shuttle they were piloting, the Challenger,
exploded just over a minute into the flight. The failure of the solid rocket booster O-rings to seat properly
allowed hot combustion gases to leak from the side of the booster and burn through the external fuel tank. The
failure of the O-ring was attributed to several factors, including faulty design of the solid rocket boosters,
insufficient low- temperature testing of the O-ring material and the joints that the O-ring sealed, and lack of
proper communication between different levels of NASA management.
Instructor Guidelines
Prior to class discussion, ask the students to read the student handout outside of class. In class the details of the
case can be reviewed with the aide of the overheads. Reserve about half of the class period for an open
discussion of the issues. The issues covered in the student handout include the importance of an engineer's
responsibility to public welfare, the need for this responsibility to hold precedence over any other responsibilities
the engineer might have and the responsibilities of a manager/engineer. A final point is the fact that no matter how
far removed from the public an engineer may think she is, all of her actions have potential impact. Essay #6,
"Loyalty and Professional Rights" appended at the end of the case listings in this report will be found relevant for
instructors preparing to lead class discussion on this case. In addition, essays #1 through #4 appended at the end
of the cases in this report will have relevant background information for the instructor preparing to lead
classroom discussion. Their titles are, respectively: "Ethics and Professionalism in Engineering: Why the Interest in
Engineering Ethics?;" "Basic Concepts and Methods in Ethics," "Moral Concepts and Theories," and
"Engineering Design: Literature on Social Responsibility Versus Legal Liability."
Questions for Class Discussion
1. What could NASA management have done differently?
2. What, if anything, could their subordinates have done differently?
3. What should Roger Boisjoly have done differently (if anything)? In answering this question, keep in mind
that at his age, the prospect of finding a new job if he was fired was slim. He also had a family to support.
4. What do you (the students) see as your future engineering professional responsibilities in relation to both
being loyal to management and protecting the public welfare?

Engaging Families to Support Indigenous Students’ Numeracy Devel.docxbudabrooks46239
Engaging Families to Support Indigenous Students’ Numeracy Development
Abstract
Indigenous children are performing poorly in mathematical skills compared to their non-indigenous counterparts in the classroom. Reasons such as unequal education opportunities and socio-economic factors have been put forward by education scholars to justify this statement. This paper will look at some of the learning and teaching strategies that can be used in Australian education to help indigenous students in improving their numeracy skills. https://yourhomeworkaide.info/2021/06/02/briefly-describe-an-organization-with-which-you-are-familiar-describe-a-situati/ The teaching and learning skills will revolve around engaging the families, improving the relationship between home and school, and bridging the cultural gap. The parents, the community and the educators have crucial roles in implementing these learning and teaching strategies.
Introduction
Numeracy skills have been an issue in the academic endeavors of many students in Australia. More so the numeracy skills are relatively poor in indigenous students compared to non-indigenous; the achievement gap between indigenous and non-indigenous widen over time and there is worrying evidence that the size of gap in recent years has been increasing (Klenowski, 2009). Indigenous people have not been recognized in the constitution therefore they are living as immigrants in their own mother land; this means they have been sidelined in national development activities, such as education, making it difficult to close the achievement gap between them and non-indigenous people.
Many people use the word numeracy interchangeably with mathematical skills, even though related, numeracy is a broad field that involves mathematical skills, problem solving and communication skills. Numeracy goes beyond the learning process that is mainly employed in a school setting; numeracy involves the understanding of quantitative techniques that are used to communicate, solve problems, respond to issues and help in the day to day undertakings. It is almost next to impossible to achieve numeracy skills without literacy.
Indigenous students have poor numeracy skills that are as a result economic, policy and pedagogical issues. The high levels of truancy and low performance can be attributed to the economic challenges that indigenous students undergo. Educational policies have not been able to provide a level playing grounds for indigenous and non-indigenous children, there has been unequal opportunities in terms of financing, tutelage and the curriculum. All these issues can be solved by engaging the parents and communities in the decision making processes on education issues especially those regarding indigenous students. https://intellectualessay.com/2021/05/08/mgmt2021-business-law-legal-systems-in-the-caribbean/

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.

Touchstone 3.2 Draft an Argumentative Research Essay
July 16, 2020
Recent pandemic, commonly referred to as COVID 19, has
changed the world dynamics. This disease has not just crashed
the world health system but has also impacted the global
education system. COVID 19 has made our daily routine
vulnerable. Still, the precautionary measures such as social
distancing have not just impacted the social life of human
beings. Still, they have also altered the Present and the future of
the global learning system. According to the UNESCO report,
the nationwide termination of educations institutes has
obstructed over 60% of the world's learner’s populace, with
approximately 1.53 billion learners out of learning institutes.
Many educationists believe that with the current circumstance,
the drop-out rate of students across the globe will increase in
the near future because of the disruption in the system. Though
many parents and institutes are still in denial of the changes
that have occurred due to the pandemic, educationists and
research indicate that the current alteration in the global
education system will not be short-lived and will have a
profound impact on the future means of education. Comment by

Education System during Pandemic Comment by Kvinge,
Krystal: If you are going to use headings, use them throughout
the paper, including for your Introduction and Conclusion.
The recent survey shows that around 22 countries in three
continents have closed their learning system on local and state
levels because of COVID 19. Such massive disruption has
pushed educators and institutions to opt for new means of
education, such as online learning and instructional tutoring.
However, such means of education has also exposed other
crucial factors, such as inconsistent resource allocation and
social and economic differences. The historical research on the
impact of school closure depicts that even a brief intervention
in school activities has a high social and economic cost.
Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Good thoughts – can you
give data? Cited numbers will strengthen this argument.
Past studies suggest that school closure impacts all communities
in a system. Still, children with special needs are the most
affected, as it impacts their learning capabilities and
compromises their nutritional facilities. Furthermore, with home
tutoring and online learning system, the economic cost per
family tends to increase, as parents are required to spend time
with their children, rather than working. The current
technological means opted by many institutions to cover up the
learning gap. It has not just increased the economic cost but has
also negatively impacted the students' social and learning skills.
Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Which studies? Be specific.
Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Give examples/data to
support your argument. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Look
3. out for sentence fragments.
Through technological intervention in the education system is
not just because of COVID 19, it has been in practice since the
last decade. The research on educational technology reveals that
18.66 billion dollars were invested in the field in 2019 (Hew,
2019), and the market for ed-technology is anticipated to reach
$350 billion by 2025. However, COVID 19 is the reason for the
significant surge for technological intervention in the current
education field. Though technological insertion has become a
lifeline for the learning system during the pandemic, factors
such as unequal technological resource distribution and access
to educational material are limiting the current learning process.
Educationists and researchers believe that such disruptions in
the current education system are not short-lived; rather, their
impacts will be felt by the future learning systems. Comment by

Impact of COVID 19 on Future education system
Considering the current changes in the education system
pertaining to COVID 19, many educationists believe that the
future of the education system will depend solely on
technology. However, some educationists consider this shift
unplanned and abrupt, resulting in untrained teachers,
insufficient bandwidth, and chaos. At the same time, some
believe that such changes will create a new fusion model of
education that will offer significant benefits to the learners and
the community. According to Vice President of Ten cent
Education (Huang, 2020)," the incorporation of technology in
the current education system will, in the long run, become a
vital part of the school education system." However, this essay
will highlight the major impacts that COVID 19 is expected to
bring in future education, from parent to institution perspective.
To survey the impact, the learning system has been divided into
four factors, the institutes, families, assessment systems, and
4. the students. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Parenthetical
citation should come after the quote: be sure to punctuate it in
APA format. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Avoid stating
what you are going to tell people. This makes your essay wordy
and does not add to it.
COVID 19 Impact on future learning institutions
Schools are an integral part of every human life. It is in these
institutions where everyone learns through interacting with each
other in a formal setting. Schools not just contribute to
enhancing the child’s learning abilities, but also improve their
social skills. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Is this on topic?
What does it have to do with your essay? What are you arguing?
Past research conducted on the impact of school absence
suggests that regular school attendance is connected to student
accomplishment and future professional prospects (Malcolm,
2003). Therefore, regular school attendance is significant for
improvement in the learning abilities of a child. Though the
impact of absence from school due to COVID 19 has not yet
been established, past studies such as (Carlsson 2015)suggest
that an increase of 10 days of schooling improves the cognitive
learning skills by 1% of the standard deviation. Based on the
findings of the past study, it can be concluded that the loss of
almost 14 weeks of schooling due to a pandemic will result in a
7% loss of learning capabilities in the students. Though
distance learning has become a solution to school absence
during the pandemic, educationists believe that getting
accustomed to the new education system will take a lot of time
and patience from the student and the parents. Still, until then,
the loss of cognitive skills will be much greater than
anticipated. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Place this citation
at the end of the sentence, after the information stated.
Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Be sure this math is correct
regarding the standard deviation calculations. If you are getting
it from a source, cite it. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Be sure
your heading matches the topic you are discussing at that point
in the paper. Change your headings if necessary.
5. COVID 19 Impact Future Families
(Björklund, 2011) Families are an important factor in the
learning process, and their educational background and
achievements are directly and positively linked with the child's
education. COVID 19 has pushed the learning system to shift
from traditional schooling to home-schooling, which is
considered the most effective and safe learning method. Still, it
has shifted the roles of parents from facilitators to providers. In
the traditional learning system, a parent was a facilitator or
mere helper to their kids, as they either helped their children in
practicing the questions and relating them with day to day
activities. However, with the infiltration of technology and
online learning system, a parent has become the driver of the
whole system, even though in the presence of tutors and online
resources material.
In the shorter run, parents' changed role will cover up the
learning loss of the student, but in the future, such practice
cannot be generalized for the whole population. Continuing with
the online learning system in the future will create learning
inequality in societies. The case study (Björklund, 2011) on the
difference between the conventional education system and
home-schooling indicates a huge variance between the time
dedicated by the parents, their cognitive skills, and the
resources available. Such variance will eventually enhance the
disparity in human capital growth. Moreover, it can be
concluded that the online education system imposed by the
pandemic cannot cover up the damage of the conventional
learning system. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Is this on
topic for a section about impact on families?
COVID 19 Impacts on the Future Assessment System
Demonstration of understanding a particular subject is a critical
factor in the learning process, and it helps in assessing whether
the educational goals are being met or not. Assessment systems
not just help in evaluation but based on critical decisions such
as grades, engagement, and professional position is also
determined. The recent outbreak of COVID 19 has affected the
6. educational system's current assessment process, and many
internal, external valuations have been canceled. This
cancellation has not just obstructed the flow of information
about the learner's performance but has congested the
opportunity for many students to pursue their higher education.
Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Awkward sentence – revise.
Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Read your essay aloud, and
if it sounds awkward, change it.
Just like the shift in the learning system from conventional to
online, the future assessment system has also been changed due
to the pandemic. Many institutions are now opting for an online
assessment system for their future valuations, which will offer
benefits such as easy access, paper, and resource-saving. Still,
on the other hand, it will create many obstructions in the
process of future evaluation. By shifting to an online evaluation
system, the teacher will be required to devise assessment
strategies that could restrict the students from copying or
searching, hence more burdens will be placed on the teachers.
Furthermore, since the devised assessment strategies would be
unique for every student, it will require to be checked
thoroughly by the teachers, which again will become a
strenuous task for them. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Cite
this information – bring in a source.
It has been observed that online assessments are more
vulnerable to deception, making the whole system doubtable
and un-credible. The study of (Piopiunik, 2020) shows that most
companies employ the grade classification and educational
achievement as a benchmark for hiring. With a non-credible and
vulnerable assessment system, the effectiveness of such
classification will decrease and have a negative impact on the
labor market. This will further impact the growth rate in the
earning and will amplify the rate of job separation, which in
turn will burden up the whole economic system of the society
and individuals. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Note that
school environments are the only environment where an
individual is required to memorize outside information and is
7. not allowed to use resources or collaborate with peers.
COVID 19 Impacts on Future Students
Currently, the most affected factor in the learning system is the
present learners or students. According to a UNESCO report,
almost 370 million youth and children have been affected
school closure, which makes up to 90% of the world’s learner
population. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: Stay on topic.
These two paragraphs do not describe what the future will look
like for students.
Every institute is making an effort to survive and thrive during
the pandemic by collaborating and pushing the factors involved
in the learning system. These include parents, institutes,
evaluation systems, and, most importantly, students. Many
educationists such as the head of OECD Andreas Schleicher
consider the pandemic as an opportunity for learning, as
according to him all the obstruction present in traditional
learning system have been omitted, and now students recognize
ways that were earlier not acknowledged.
On the other hand, some educationists believe that though
COVID 19 has made the learner independent, but has also
highlighted the limitations that are being attached to the future
education system (Burgess, 2020). The pandemic will create
education inequalities among future learners because of the
variance in the educational background of parents, resource
availability, and technical knowledge of the learner themselves.
Furthermore, the mental impact of social distancing and
isolation will create a cognitive problem for future students and
eventually impact their learning abilities. Educationist believes
that post-COVID 19 the students are required to be self-
motivated and resourceful to achieve higher educational
accomplishments.
Conclusion
The facts and figures collected through current and past
research, survey proof the thesis that COVID 19 has changed
the dynamic of the current and future of the education system.
Before, the pandemic it was the World Wars that globally shut
8. down the education system and changed the whole learning
scenario, but now this particular health crisis has impacted not
just the current system. Still, its impacts can be far seen in the
future. The crises have not just created new and unique
opportunities for the education system but have highlighted the
limitation that has been persisting in society but never been
talked about. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: I have not marked
them all. Review your whole essay for awkward, unclear
phrasing. Comment by Kvinge, Krystal: This is good
information, but was it brought up earlier in your essay? Do not
bring in new information in your conclusion.
The foreseen change in the education system cannot be avoided,
but it can be managed by preparing the factors involved.
Educationist and institutions should focus on the limitation of
the new proposed education system, and then devise strategies
that could cover up the constraints.
Reflection
There are many places in the essay where original facts and
figure from past studies and survey have been presented to
support the argument that COVID 19 has changed the Present
and future of education", for example under the heading
"COVID 19 impact on future students" numerical factual data
about the number of students who have been affected is given,
which shows that logical, rhetorical appeal has been employed.
By offering factual and numerical data in my essay, the essay's
credibility and understanding have been improved.
Credible and informative feedback would help in revising the
essay. Yes, there are certainly heading in the draft that I am
uncertain of because they do not specify the tone of the topic,
and neither provides the reader with a conclusive suggestion or
evidence.
