Genre, a category of artistic production characterized by similarities in composition and style, is a term used to discuss literature, music, art, and film. It is particularly useful in critical applications because it distinguishes a work within a context of similar works. In film, we are familiar with certain broad genre categories such as horror, science-fiction, romance, and drama. Understanding genre helps provide the viewer with certain expectations about film. For instance, the film The Conjuring trailer (Version 2) is of the horror genre and thus can be discussed in context with other horror films. More specifically, it is of the sub-genre, supernatural horror, so it can be discussed in context with, say, The Exorcist trailer . Making this distinction enables the audience to situate their reaction within a particular framework. Such framework is important to our work here. In this discussion Identify a film and classify it according to its genre (or sub-genre). Include a link(s) to a trailer or scene(s) from the film. Discuss the conventions that are typical in films of that genre (or sub-genre). Explain how this specific film meets the expectations of its genre. 200 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. APA style need to cite off of the chapters provided!! No animaiton movies .

Give an example of a parent conference to explain to the parents the need for a referral for additional diagnostic testing. SAMPLE Parent-Teacher conference scenario: Ms. Mattiuz (teacher): Hello Mr. and Mrs. Jones. Thank you for attending tonight’s conference. It is such a pleasure working with Jodi (student) each day. First I would let parents know Jodi’s strengths. Next, I would “encourage parents to share their observations of their child’s learning at home” (Otto, 2014, p. 354). Ms. Mattiuz : As I have gotten to know Jodi these past few months, I have some concerns I would like to share with you. Mr. & Mrs. Jones (parents of Jodi): What are they? Ms. Mattiuz : I am concerned with Jodi’s lack of attention in the classroom and ability to complete her work, which is causing her to fall behind. At this point I would show work samples and list the modifications I have made to help Jodi complete her work (Otto, 2014). In addition, the parents would be advised what the norm is for their child’s age/developmental level. I would continue by letting the parents know I have consulted with the school counselor, school psychologist, and the teacher assistance team. Ms. Mattiuz : Have you noticed any similar behaviors at home? Mr. & Mrs. Jones : Yes, we have. What can we do to help her? Ms. Mattiuz : We would like to “find out more information” in an effort to offer Jodi the “best possible learning environment” by referring her for further assessment (Otto, 2014, p. 354) .

Gender and sexuality are intertwined in many cultures. (Gardiner & Kosmitzki, 2011) Socialization agents teach the appropriate behaviors for gender and the acceptable sexual attitudes and behaviors within a culture. Cultural differences exist around the world and across countries. For example, cultural differences may exist through the number of partners allowed in a marriage, expectations for males and females, and knowledge and application of safe sex practices. Differences may also arise in what is permitted and acceptable, such as premarital sex, same-sex relationships, and extramarital relationships. The consequences for an individual deviating from these cultural expectations also vary from culture to culture. For this Assignment, choose one sexual attitude (e.g., abstinence, monogamy, etc.) and one sexual behavior (e.g., chastity, infidelity, etc.). The Assignment (4–5 pages) Use Arabs as the culture of interest and Japanese as another culture of interest. Compare the similarities and differences of sexual attitudes and behaviors in each culture. Describe the cultural factors that influence sexual attitudes and behaviors. Explain how sexual attitudes and behaviors are perceived and displayed within each culture. Be specific and provide examples. Support your responses using current literature. Stay on Topic. APA format, separate title and reference page. .

Geography Project – Project Plan Instructions Following your Module/Week 4 and Module/Week 5 submissions and instructor feedback, you will identify a location as an area for a potential service project and prepare a mission statement as well as develop a strategy to accomplish this mission using the 5 main themes of geography as guides. The mission statement will be a concise sentence identifying the location and the desired result of services to be performed. For example: “The goal of this project is to help the people of Tripoli, Libya by delivering fresh water for drinking and irrigation.” The subsequent plan to achieve this mission statement will be based on the 5 main themes/topics of geography and will be at least 3–4 pages (not including a title page and/or reference pages towards the minimum page length). Introduction (Why this is a topic worth exploring/solving) This service project may be characterized by, but not limited to, business, Christian service, or a military action for the purpose of helping a particular group of people. The service topic you choose may already exist, but the description of the problems and their characterizations in terms of the geographic themes and topics must be your own. Geographic Theme of Movement as an Example For example, a strategic plan to achieve the aforementioned mission statement would be: “The people in Tripoli face both a shortage of fresh water and food.” How would you get these resources to them? By exploring the theme of movement, you see how aspects of transportation may be the key to satisfying the delivery of water. You might want to increase the roads to this area, thereby enabling you to get irrigation equipment and water to this town. Perhaps the topic of agriculture from the text would lead you to explore the idea of creating irrigation for the crops of the area. Think within the theme of movement. You may observe that by marking road signs in Arabic, one uses language and relative place to mark the roads in a manner consistent with the needs and cultural nuances of this particular area. You will also want to develop the idea of where the trucks will come from to deliver the water. Will the trucks need to come from Europe, thereby necessitating sealift (theme of movement), or can they be created in an urban area nearby (topic of industry and urban geography)? Conclusion/Summary Paragraph The logical application of a location’s needs into a concise mission statement and a well-researched and imaginatively explained plan will both demonstrate spatial awareness and the application of Christian principles. Success in this project could constitute one small step in the Great Commission that Christians have been charged with fulfilling.

Geographic Location: They are found throughout the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. In the Pacific, their range extends as far north as Alaska and south beyond the southernmost tip of New Zealand. In the Atlantic, they can be found as far north as Norway and the Arctic Circle and south to the tip of Africa. They are mainly pelagic (open ocean) wanderers but migrate to tropical and subtropical coastal regions to mate and nest.( Osborne,2015) In 1982, scientists estimated that there were 115,000 adult female leatherback sea turtles worldwide. Recent estimates have placed the number between 20,000 and 30,000 (Singh,2007). Trends in Population: The global population for this species was estimated to be 115,000 adult females in 1982. By 1996 this had been revised down to about 30-40,000. Leatherback populations in the Pacific and Indian Oceans have undergone dramatic declines in the past forty years. For example, the nesting colony at Terengganu, Malaysia went from more than 3,000 females in 1968, to 20 in 1993, to just 2 in 1993 - there are no signs of recovery. Similar scenarios have occurred in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Mexico. Numbers of females recorded at four formerly major Pacific rookeries have declined to about 250 in Mexico, 117 in Costa Rica, two in Malaysia, and fewer than 550 in Indonesia(Anonymous, 2006) Reproduction: Leatherbacks mate offshore in shallow waters near the nesting area. The females dig their flask-shaped nests at night on sloping sandy beaches backed by vegetation. Six clutches can be laid in a season, with a 10-day period between nesting. The females may renest up to 7 miles from the first nest. An average clutch contains 80 to 85 eggs and incubation takes from 55 to 74 days. The 3-inch hatchlings emerge at night and head toward the ocean. The turtles reach sexual maturity at 6 to 10 years of age; the females nest every second or third year. In the U.S., nesting occurs from about March to July. Female leatherbacks nest an average of 5 to 7 times within a nesting season, with an observed maximum of 11 nests. Most leatherbacks remigrate to their nesting beaches at 2 to 3-year intervals. (Department of energy and environmental protection, 2014) Threats: 1- Marine pollution It is the greatest threat for leatherback sea turtles, while they accidentally eat balloons and plastic bags floating in the water which they mistaken as jellyfish. (Leigh,2015) 2- Overharvesting and illegal: Egg collection on many turtle nesting beaches is a very serious threat, especially in Southeast Asia where a culture of legal egg collection leads to the removal of tens of thousands of eggs. This practice has contributed to the local extinction of leatherbacks in Malaysia. Within the last several decades extensive egg collection and the killing of adult turtles in Indonesia has resulted in huge population declines throughout the region. Despite protective legislation, many eggs produced each year in Central America are.
