GGH110 Assignment #2 Park University Fall 2015 Exploring the “Core Components” of Culture Groups: For this activity, you will use the Ethnologue website (www.ethnologue.com) and the Adherents website (www.adherents.com) in order to explore the two major “core components” (i.e., language and religion) of the cultures found in the place you have chosen to research this semester. Although some of the data in these resources may be relatively "old" (which really just illustrates the great need for current and sustained research in support of these languages and religions), together they represent perhaps the most comprehensive collection of information about the “core components” of the distinctive culture groups found throughout the world today. As we have recently discussed in this course, language is often used as the most important "defining trait" of many culture groups and the primary means by which they are identified. Thus, exploring the linguistic diversity within a place is arguably the primary starting point for gaining a sense of its cultural diversity. In addition, understanding what the status is of the languages that are spoken in a place is significant because, as the Ethnologue states, “Since language is closely linked to culture, loss of language almost always is accompanied by social and cultural disruptions as well.” Finally, studying the languages of a place through a geolinguistics approach can also reveal a great deal about where a group of people came from and with whom they have been in contact. Therefore, most of this assignment will focus on finding information from Ethnologue. Before you begin this assignment, you should take some time to become familiar with the array of information that is presented for each country and its languages on the Ethnologue website. A simple way of doing this is by going to its listing for the United States at the country index page: http://www.ethnologue.com/country_index.asp. Can you find all of the answers to the following questions? · How many total languages are given for the United States? · How many languages are classified as “living”? How many are “nearly extinct”? What seems to be the basis for classifying a language as nearly extinct? · Does the U.S. have an “official language”? If so, what is it? · What is the language family/branch/group classification for each language? · What is the number of people who can speak each one? Where are these speakers primarily located? · What other linguistic trends and patterns catch your attention? Notice that you can also see language maps that show where the people who speak these languages live. Now, go back to the county index page and find the page for the country you have chosen to study for this class. Create a PowerPoint presentation that includes the following content: 1) Slide #1: a. Name of the country/place you are studying b. Go to the CIA World Factbook page for the place you are studying and gather and re.

My TA comment:
While this is an interesting topic, I think it falls outside the scope of the class. You need to be looking at a speech community and the resources you cite are looking at different aspects of the interaction between music and language. Crucially, all of the music perspectives reflect groups of people that do not necessarily share a linguistic dialect or register. Perhaps refocus to an ethnolect associated with a music genre (i.e. AAVE and Hip Hop). The question perhaps you can think about is whether Hip Hop is redefining language, or if the language usage in the African American community as well as their tradition of linguistic creativity filters into Hip Hop.
you may address include: What languages are now used in your chosen area? What educational opportunities are there (e.g., dual immersion, classes to support English language learning)? Are there language revitalization/maintenance efforts underway? What U.S. policies or cultural patterns have had a hand in the current state of the speech community?

Languages and Cultures of America Field Research Project: local communities and their language practices
For this assignment,1 you will leave the UCSD area to learn more about one of the topics or speech communities we’ve talked about in this class. This is a two-part research paper which will involve performing some research on your field visit (i.e., your visit to some area outside of the UCSD campus) as well as further research into the speech community you have chosen.
In our class, the focus is language and culture. The field visit will give you further insight into cultural and historical dimensions of an American community. The goal is to allow you to perform an in-depth exploration of a speech community that is of particular interest to you. By exploring San Diego County, you can situate the experiences we discuss in class within a more local perspective. Your additional research will then complement this with information on the sociolinguistic context of the community you have chosen. Some questions you may address include: What languages are now used in your chosen area? What educational opportunities are there (e.g., dual immersion, classes to support English language learning)? Are there language revitalization/maintenance efforts underway? What U.S. policies or cultural patterns have had a hand in the current state of the speech community?
For this assignment, you will need to do the following:
1. Visit a relevant place of interest (the topic of your paper should be tied to an American context; for a non-exhaustive list of places you could visit, see page 3 of this document)
2. Write a short research paper in which you:
a. Describe the location of your visit in detail (i.e. park, museum, etc.)
b. Discuss what you learned by visiting.
c. Explain how the place you visited is relevant to a course topic (incorporate course concepts)
d. Complement what you learned on your visit with further re ...

Annotated Bibliography
Chopin, Kate. Complete Novels and Stories. New York: Library of America, 2002. Print. Chopin's short story collections 'A Night in Acadie' and 'Bayou
Folk', found with other writings here, reflect the Acadian and Creole
cultures of the southern Louisiana region. I will use the cultural
information in the stories, as well as Chopin's treatment of them, to
illuminate ways in which the people of the region were separate or removed
from the white upper class Creoles of New Orleans during the period
portrayed in The Awakening.
Gladu, Andre, dir. Maroon: On the Trail of Creoles in North America. 2005. National Film Board of Canada. DVD. The film traces the history of the
Creole people of North America, focusing primarily on the Louisiana region,
and reveals the African escaped-slave (maroon), American Indian and Acadian origins of Creole culture. Director Gladu argues that white Acadian, or French-speaking, Creoles have used the cultural identification term, though Creoles are more markedly a product of black 'maroon' and indigenous influences. I will use the content of the film to illuminate the cultural gap between the upper-class white Creole society into which Edna Pontellier has married and the poor and working class Creoles she visits throughout the novel.

In Silent Spring, Rachel Carson discusses the dangers of pesticide use and its impact on the environment. She argues that pesticides like DDT are poisoning wildlife and may have long-term negative health impacts on humans. Carson aims to raise awareness of how pesticide pollution is affecting the natural balance of ecosystems. The book sparked a significant increase in public environmentalism and was influential in the establishment of the modern environmental movement.

This document summarizes the key aspects of sociolinguistic research on language variation and social class. It discusses how social class can influence language use through sociolects. It describes William Labov's seminal study in New York City that correlated non-prevocalic /r/ usage with social class. The study found higher /r/ usage among higher social classes. It also outlines the typical stages of quantitative sociolinguistic research pioneered by Labov, including selecting variables, collecting speech samples, identifying linguistic variables, processing data, and interpreting results.

Page 1 of 2
Summary: This 50-point take-home, open-book final exam is intended to measure whether you
have met the student learning objectives as articulated in the syllabus and to help you synthesize
discrete topics from the course. You may consult with other members of the class, but you must
explicitly name any people you work with and write up your own answers regardless. The essays
should be well organized and copy-edited, but do not not need to include a formal list of
references (though you should cite readings if you quote or take specific ideas from them).
Submission Instructions: Your answers should be submitted electronically via Moodle
upload by 3:00 PM on Thursday, December 11, as a Word or .pdf file. Be sure to clearly
label this file with your name in two places – in the text of the file itself, and also as part of the
filename as follows: [Your name]-final exam answers
1.) In California, an initiative (Proposition 63) to amend the state constitution to make English
the official language of the state was introduced in 1986. It was opposed by all leading
politicians in California, with the exception of then-U.S. Senator Pete Wilson. Here are
some reactions from the time:
• Governor Deukmejian called it “unnecessary” and said “it would cause fear, confusion and
resentment among many minority Californians.”
• Roman Catholic bishops in California said it would “enshrine prejudice in the law and
jeopardize all forms of bilingual assistance.”
• The Los Angeles City Council said it was “contrary to [their] most basic principles of
equality and opportunity.”
• The League of Women Voters, Chambers of Commerce all over California, the American
Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, the American Civil
Liberties Union, and organizations of ethnic minorities all came out against the
amendment, as well as California’s largest newspapers in their editorials.
Nevertheless, on election day, 73% of the electorate statewide – and a majority in every
California county – voted in favor of this initiative to make English the official
language of California. Reflecting on course concepts, discuss a possible explanation as for
why this was – that is, being that policymakers and public organizations were so heavily
against this proposition, why did it pass by such a large margin? (5 points)
2.) Three-part short essay (10 points):
a. State a myth about a Native American language of the present-day United States (or a
general myth about all of them) that doesn’t involve words for snow.
b. Referencing specific examples from course lectures and readings (especially Flutes of
Fire) show that it is a myth (i.e., give several specific counterexamples). If appropriate to
the myth you reference, you should also incorporate general linguistic theory.1
c. Referencing the arguments of Pullum (1991) and course discussions rega.

discrete topics from the course. You may consult with other members of the class, but you must
explicitly name any people you work with and write up your own answers regardless. The essays
should be well organized and copy-edited, but do not not need to include a formal list of
references (though you should cite readings if you quote or take specific ideas from them).
Submission Instructions: Your answers should be submitted electronically via Moodle
upload by 3:00 PM on Thursday, December 11, as a Word or .pdf file. Be sure to clearly
label this file with your name in two places – in the text of the file itself, and also as part of the
filename as follows: [Your name]-final exam answers
1.) In California, an initiative (Proposition 63) to amend the state constitution to make English
the official language of the state was introduced in 1986. It was opposed by all leading
politicians in California, with the exception of then-U.S. Senator Pete Wilson. Here are
some reactions from the time:
• Governor Deukmejian called it “unnecessary” and said “it would cause fear, confusion and
resentment among many minority Californians.”
• Roman Catholic bishops in California said it would “enshrine prejudice in the law and
jeopardize all forms of bilingual assistance.”
• The Los Angeles City Council said it was “contrary to [their] most basic principles of
equality and opportunity.”
• The League of Women Voters, Chambers of Commerce all over California, the American
Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, the American Civil
Liberties Union, and organizations of ethnic minorities all came out against the
amendment, as well as California’s largest newspapers in their editorials.
Nevertheless, on election day, 73% of the electorate statewide – and a majority in every
California county – voted in favor of this initiative to make English the official
language of California. Reflecting on course concepts, discuss a possible explanation as for
why this was – that is, being that policymakers and public organizations were so heavily
against this proposition, why did it pass by such a large margin? (5 points)
2.) Three-part short essay (10 points):
a. State a myth about a Native American language of the present-day United States (or a
general myth about all of them) that doesn’t involve words for snow.
b. Referencing specific examples from course lectures and readings (especially Flutes of
Fire) show that it is a myth (i.e., give several specific counterexamples). If appropriate to
the myth you reference, you should also incorporate general linguistic theory.1
c. Referencing the arguments of Pullum (1991) and course discussions rega.

The rest of the presentation will be made up of slides like this (Bass & Berson, 2016). You need to integrate comics or pictures to keep audience’s interest. Slides should be research/evidence-based information with citations and notes should be equally matched. “The notes should be at least paragraph length, which is 3-5 sentences in length and should look similar to mine” (Smith, 2018, para. 1). Make sure to format correctly using the APA format help guides I have provided.
Each slide MUST have presenter notes with research/citations scattered throughout. The presenter notes should be more in depth and describe fully the slides. Do not put too much information directly onto the slides! The audience should not be doing more work reading the slides than the presenter is doing talking – also, there should not be ‘quiet’ time when the audience is reading and the presenter is sitting. Try to balance that part out (Metcalf, 2018)!

An urban legend is a commonly-believed but uncited story about history, medicine,
psychology, technology, anything. Many urban legends are untrue (or outdated), but they have
an ability to persist through oral transmission. One area in which urban legends abound is
etymology.
Common but unfounded beliefs about where words or phrases come from are called false
etymologies. Many of them are about words that are supposedly initialisms/acronyms. For
instance, the word news for ‘current events being reported on’ is simply an extension of the
adjective new, inspired by the French nouvelles (Oxford English Dictionary, ‘news, n.’). But there
is a common untrue belief that news supposedly comes from the first letters of the points of the
compass (N, E, S, W) with the order slightly altered. There is no reason to believe this, but it
strikes people as interesting and convincing, so it continues to be disseminated. Just this past
summer, your professor saw this ‘fact’ painted on the wall of a newsstand in an airport in the
United States!
But false etymologies have a greater power than this. Sometimes a mistaken belief about a word
or phrase’s history causes it to be changed over time. When this happens, it is called a folk
etymology ...

The document summarizes a study that investigated the preferences of 30 Iranian English language teachers for either British or American English. A 20-item test was administered to determine their preferences and performance. The results showed that 73.3% of teachers preferred American English, while their average correct performance was 63.4% for American English questions and 59.4% for British English. Therefore, while most teachers preferred American English, their proficiency did not fully match their stated preference.

Sociolinguistics (Paper)
This document provides an introduction to sociolinguistics. It begins by defining sociolinguistics as the study of the relationship between language and the social context in which it is used. It explains that sociolinguistics examines how people use language differently in various social settings and how language conveys social meaning. The document then discusses key topics in sociolinguistics, including language versus dialect, regional dialects, social dialects, and language variations based on style, register and social beliefs. It provides examples of how language usage varies based on social factors like region, socioeconomic class, gender, and education level.

Letter to Pew Research Center
LETTER TO PEW RESEARCH CENTER:
June 22, 2012
Dear Paul Taylor and Dr. Mark Lopez,
We are writing on behalf of the Asian American Pacific Islander Policy and Research Consortium (AAPIPRC), a national organization of four university-based Asian American research centers. [i] We respectfully submit this response to the Pew Research Center’s recent report, The Rise of Asian Americans. Pew has assembled U.S. Census Bureau and government economic data, developing a detailed survey questionnaire, and conducting extensive telephone interviews with a national sample of 3,511 Asians. We acknowledge this is a major investment of Pew Research Center’s time and resources, and as a result has added to the publicly accessible information on the economic, social, and political situation of Asian Americans.
While there are merits to the Pew report, the selection of what information to present and highlight is highly biased, and the framing and interpretation of the analysis are incomplete and implicitly misleading and damaging for Asian American communities. We believe it is important to acknowledge the many accomplishments made by Asian Americans, but not at the expense of a fuller understanding of the diverse, complex and nuanced reality. The publication presents overly generalized descriptive and aggregate statistics, fails to critically explain the causes and limitations of observed outcomes, and falls short of examining tremendous and critical differences among Asian ethnic groups. We echo the comments by many Asian American scholars, advocates and lawmakers who point out how the study could lead policymakers, the media and the public to draw conclusions that reflect inaccurate stereotypes about Asian Americans being only a community with high levels of achievement and few challenges. There are many educational, economic, and health disparities, among others, facing our diverse communities. The selection of included populations leaves out some of the most distressed groups; consequently, the studied subjects are not representative.
As academic researchers, we understand the power and importance of quantitative analysis, but numbers are not just numbers, and they do not speak for themselves. They support a narrative through subjective decisions on topics, research design and methods, large frameworks to interpret results, and prioritizing which findings to highlight. We do not necessarily dispute the validity of many of Pew’s numbers, but we are deeply troubled by the emphasis that leaves the reader with a one-sided picture. A primary example revolves around the claim that “Asian Americans are the highest-income,” an assertion that is the lead line in the press release and rests on median household income. Pew is accurate in reporting the most recently available numbers from the American Community Survey ($66,000 for Asian Americans and $54,000 for non-Hispanic whites), but fails to fully adjust for two critical factors:.

The humanities through the artstenth editionlee a. jacobus
This document summarizes three potential English research topics:
1) Language and advertising - How language is used in advertising and its effects, with a focus on offensive language and grammar. Participants would include media personnel and advertising viewers.
2) Language and community - How language builds and defines communities, and how it can be used to create issues. Participants would provide perspectives on language importance.
3) Language and cultural identity - How language identifies cultures and causes misunderstandings between cultures with similar words. Participants would identify their own cultures based on language.
The document recommends further research on the topic of language and culture.
lexicographic evidence
This document discusses how to design, acquire, and process a collection of linguistic data to form the raw material for a dictionary. It explains that a reliable dictionary requires evidence from language used in real communicative acts. While introspection and informant testing provide some evidence, they are limited due to subjectivity. Therefore, observation of language in use through large text corpora is indispensable. Key considerations in corpus design include size, inclusion of different text types and styles to avoid bias, and ensuring representativeness.

Running head: MYTHS OF LATINO IMMIGRATION 1
MYTHS OF LATINO IMMIGRATION 3
Myths of Latino Immigration （revised）
Myth Outlining Worksheet
1. What is your myth?
A common myth about Latino is that Latino is homogenous naturally existing and an easily identifiable group of people.
2. What is your argument about your myth? (Should be two to three concise sentences.)
This myth is wrong because Latino is not a homogenous group or an easily identifiable group because Latino is the group that is initially from areas with different ancestries. Latino population is consisting of many types, say, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban or Dominican, and they are not easily identified.
Evidence
I. Latino comprises of several sub-groups with unique identities
· One of the typical stereotype and mentality regarding the Latinos in America is that they have a shared ethnic background, race, and culture.
· However, the reality is that Latino comprises of several sub-groups with unique identities (Holloway, 2008, p.5).
· In the United States, Latino is defined in terms of their nationalities or the countries that they originated.
· For example, in the case of Midwest and Southwest, Latinos are seen as Mexicans.
· In the eastern part of America, particularly New York and Boston regions, Latino is people who are considered to have limitations of communications with the Dominicans and Puerto Ricans.
· In this case, Latinos are defined by their inability to communicate with o people other in the region. In the case of Miami, Cubans, and Central America, Latinos are groups for interpreting Latin America.
· Latin America is considered a group of Latin people who originate from different nationalities. In chapter three, Social Polarization and Colonized Labor: Puerto Ricans in the United States, between 1945–2000 Kelvin Antiago-Valles & Jiménez-Muñoz assert that the idea of homogeneity is quite extensive to the extent of some politicians treating Latino Americans as culturally unified people.
· Latino is racially diverse, thus making the ethnic category rather than a race (Gutiérrez, 2008, p.129). Technically, anyone from central, South America and the Caribbean can be described as Latino because the regions were previously empires of Spanish, Portuguese and French.
· Also, Latino as an ethnicity, has people from different nationalities. Several races are comprised of the group. The only similarity they have is that they are not the original inhabitants in America. Latinos have their roots in the immigrant groups that moved to America.
2. Latino originated from different countries with varying cultures.
· Latino is not easy to identify in terms of cultural practices.
· In chapter six, The Other “Other Hispanics”: South American–Origin Latinos In the United States, Espitia states t ...

“The 1960s: A Decade of Promise and Heartbreak”
By Kenneth T. Walsh
March 9, 2010
US News
It was a decade of extremes, of
transformational
change and
bizarre
contrasts: flower children and
assassins
,
idealism
and
alienation
, rebellion and
backlash
. For many in the
massive
post-World War II baby boom generation, it was both the best of times and the worst of times. (7 words)
There will be many 50-year anniversaries to mark significant events of the 1960s, and a big reason is that what happened in that remarkable era still
resonates
today. At the dawn of that decade of contrasts a half century ago—on Jan. 2 ,1960—a
charismatic
young senator from Massachusetts named John F. Kennedy announced that he was running for president, and he won the nation's highest office the following November. He remains one of the
iconic
figures in U.S. history. On February 1, four determined black men sat at a whites-only lunch counter at a Woolworth's in Greensboro, N.C., and were denied service. Their act of
defiance
triggered a wave of sit-ins for civil rights across the South and brought
unrelenting
national attention to America's original sin of racism. On March 3, Elvis Presley returned to the United States from his Army stint in Germany, resuming his career as a pioneer of rock-and-roll and an icon of the youth culture celebrating freedom and a growing sense of rebellion.(5 words)
By the end of the decade, Kennedy had been
assassinated
, along with his brother Robert and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. America's cities had become powder kegs as African-Americans, despite historic gains toward legal equality, became more impatient than ever at being second-class citizens. Women began demanding their rights in
unprecedented
numbers. Young people and their parents felt a widening generation gap as seen in their differing perceptions of
patriotism
, drug use, sexuality, and the work ethic. The now familiar culture wars between liberals and conservatives caused angry divisions over law and order, busing, racial preferences, abortion, the Vie.

Introduction Slide
The introduction/conclusion slide are the only slides that can have a complete sentences or paragraph format.
“Famous quotes or comics are a great way to start a presentation” (Smith, n.d., para. or p. 2)!
Use powerful research with citations to grab the audience’s attention and make a great first impression!
McEwen & Willis, 2011
“Shaping public health,” 2011
Introduce yourself and your topic to your audience. Do not use too much wording on intro slide. This slide counts toward minimum requirement. Use first person language, such as: Hi, my name is Rachel and today I will be presenting… Each slide needspresenter notes to explain to the audience what you are trying to teach on the slide. The presenter notes need to be like a paragraph and need to be 3-5 sentences in length. Citations need to be scattered throughout the presenter notes integrating your research (Metcalf, 2018). Make sure to cite your “quotes in the proper APA format” (Metcalf, 2018, para. 7). A picture alone will not count as a slide. Each slide must have research-based content and presenter notes to count toward the minimum slide requirement.

The rest of the presentation will be made up of slides like this (Bass & Berson, 2016). You need to integrate comics or pictures to keep audience’s interest. Slides should be research/evidence-based information with citations and notes should be equally matched. “The notes should be at least paragraph length, which is 3-5 sentences in length and should look similar to mine” (Smith, 2018, para. 1). Make sure to format correctly using the APA format help guides I have provided.
Each slide MUST have presenter notes with research/citations scattered throughout. The presenter notes should be more in depth and describe fully the slides. Do not put too much information directly onto the slides! The audience should not be doing more work reading the slides than the presenter is doing talking – also, there should not be ‘quiet’ time when the audience is reading and the presenter is sitting. Try to balance that part out (Metcalf, 2018)!

Instructions
An urban legend is a commonly-believed but uncited story about history, medicine,
psychology, technology, anything. Many urban legends are untrue (or outdated), but they have
an ability to persist through oral transmission. One area in which urban legends abound is
etymology.
Common but unfounded beliefs about where words or phrases come from are called false
etymologies. Many of them are about words that are supposedly initialisms/acronyms. For
instance, the word news for ‘current events being reported on’ is simply an extension of the
adjective new, inspired by the French nouvelles (Oxford English Dictionary, ‘news, n.’). But there
is a common untrue belief that news supposedly comes from the first letters of the points of the
compass (N, E, S, W) with the order slightly altered. There is no reason to believe this, but it
strikes people as interesting and convincing, so it continues to be disseminated. Just this past
summer, your professor saw this ‘fact’ painted on the wall of a newsstand in an airport in the
United States!
But false etymologies have a greater power than this. Sometimes a mistaken belief about a word
or phrase’s history causes it to be changed over time. When this happens, it is called a folk
etymology ...
Ae&be
The document summarizes a study that investigated the preferences of 30 Iranian English language teachers for either British or American English. A 20-item test was administered to determine their preferences and performance. The results showed that 73.3% of teachers preferred American English, while their average correct performance was 63.4% for American English questions and 59.4% for British English. Therefore, while most teachers preferred American English, their proficiency did not fully match their stated preference.

Sociolinguistics (Paper)
This document provides an introduction to sociolinguistics. It begins by defining sociolinguistics as the study of the relationship between language and the social context in which it is used. It explains that sociolinguistics examines how people use language differently in various social settings and how language conveys social meaning. The document then discusses key topics in sociolinguistics, including language versus dialect, regional dialects, social dialects, and language variations based on style, register and social beliefs. It provides examples of how language usage varies based on social factors like region, socioeconomic class, gender, and education level.

Letter to Pew Research Center
LETTER TO PEW RESEARCH CENTER:
June 22, 2012
Dear Paul Taylor and Dr. Mark Lopez,
We are writing on behalf of the Asian American Pacific Islander Policy and Research Consortium (AAPIPRC), a national organization of four university-based Asian American research centers. [i] We respectfully submit this response to the Pew Research Center’s recent report, The Rise of Asian Americans. Pew has assembled U.S. Census Bureau and government economic data, developing a detailed survey questionnaire, and conducting extensive telephone interviews with a national sample of 3,511 Asians. We acknowledge this is a major investment of Pew Research Center’s time and resources, and as a result has added to the publicly accessible information on the economic, social, and political situation of Asian Americans.
While there are merits to the Pew report, the selection of what information to present and highlight is highly biased, and the framing and interpretation of the analysis are incomplete and implicitly misleading and damaging for Asian American communities. We believe it is important to acknowledge the many accomplishments made by Asian Americans, but not at the expense of a fuller understanding of the diverse, complex and nuanced reality. The publication presents overly generalized descriptive and aggregate statistics, fails to critically explain the causes and limitations of observed outcomes, and falls short of examining tremendous and critical differences among Asian ethnic groups. We echo the comments by many Asian American scholars, advocates and lawmakers who point out how the study could lead policymakers, the media and the public to draw conclusions that reflect inaccurate stereotypes about Asian Americans being only a community with high levels of achievement and few challenges. There are many educational, economic, and health disparities, among others, facing our diverse communities. The selection of included populations leaves out some of the most distressed groups; consequently, the studied subjects are not representative.
As academic researchers, we understand the power and importance of quantitative analysis, but numbers are not just numbers, and they do not speak for themselves. They support a narrative through subjective decisions on topics, research design and methods, large frameworks to interpret results, and prioritizing which findings to highlight. We do not necessarily dispute the validity of many of Pew’s numbers, but we are deeply troubled by the emphasis that leaves the reader with a one-sided picture. A primary example revolves around the claim that “Asian Americans are the highest-income,” an assertion that is the lead line in the press release and rests on median household income. Pew is accurate in reporting the most recently available numbers from the American Community Survey ($66,000 for Asian Americans and $54,000 for non-Hispanic whites), but fails to fully adjust for two critical factors:.

The humanities through the artstenth editionlee a. jacobus
This document summarizes three potential English research topics:
1) Language and advertising - How language is used in advertising and its effects, with a focus on offensive language and grammar. Participants would include media personnel and advertising viewers.
2) Language and community - How language builds and defines communities, and how it can be used to create issues. Participants would provide perspectives on language importance.
3) Language and cultural identity - How language identifies cultures and causes misunderstandings between cultures with similar words. Participants would identify their own cultures based on language.
The document recommends further research on the topic of language and culture.
lexicographic evidence
This document discusses how to design, acquire, and process a collection of linguistic data to form the raw material for a dictionary. It explains that a reliable dictionary requires evidence from language used in real communicative acts. While introspection and informant testing provide some evidence, they are limited due to subjectivity. Therefore, observation of language in use through large text corpora is indispensable. Key considerations in corpus design include size, inclusion of different text types and styles to avoid bias, and ensuring representativeness.

Running head: MYTHS OF LATINO IMMIGRATION 1
MYTHS OF LATINO IMMIGRATION 3
Myths of Latino Immigration （revised）
Myth Outlining Worksheet
1. What is your myth?
A common myth about Latino is that Latino is homogenous naturally existing and an easily identifiable group of people.
2. What is your argument about your myth? (Should be two to three concise sentences.)
This myth is wrong because Latino is not a homogenous group or an easily identifiable group because Latino is the group that is initially from areas with different ancestries. Latino population is consisting of many types, say, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban or Dominican, and they are not easily identified.
Evidence
I. Latino comprises of several sub-groups with unique identities
· One of the typical stereotype and mentality regarding the Latinos in America is that they have a shared ethnic background, race, and culture.
· However, the reality is that Latino comprises of several sub-groups with unique identities (Holloway, 2008, p.5).
· In the United States, Latino is defined in terms of their nationalities or the countries that they originated.
· For example, in the case of Midwest and Southwest, Latinos are seen as Mexicans.
· In the eastern part of America, particularly New York and Boston regions, Latino is people who are considered to have limitations of communications with the Dominicans and Puerto Ricans.
· In this case, Latinos are defined by their inability to communicate with o people other in the region. In the case of Miami, Cubans, and Central America, Latinos are groups for interpreting Latin America.
· Latin America is considered a group of Latin people who originate from different nationalities. In chapter three, Social Polarization and Colonized Labor: Puerto Ricans in the United States, between 1945–2000 Kelvin Antiago-Valles & Jiménez-Muñoz assert that the idea of homogeneity is quite extensive to the extent of some politicians treating Latino Americans as culturally unified people.
· Latino is racially diverse, thus making the ethnic category rather than a race (Gutiérrez, 2008, p.129). Technically, anyone from central, South America and the Caribbean can be described as Latino because the regions were previously empires of Spanish, Portuguese and French.
· Also, Latino as an ethnicity, has people from different nationalities. Several races are comprised of the group. The only similarity they have is that they are not the original inhabitants in America. Latinos have their roots in the immigrant groups that moved to America.
2. Latino originated from different countries with varying cultures.
· Latino is not easy to identify in terms of cultural practices.
· In chapter six, The Other “Other Hispanics”: South American–Origin Latinos In the United States, Espitia states t ...

“The 1960s: A Decade of Promise and Heartbreak”
By Kenneth T. Walsh
March 9, 2010
US News
It was a decade of extremes, of
transformational
change and
bizarre
contrasts: flower children and
assassins
,
idealism
and
alienation
, rebellion and
backlash
. For many in the
massive
post-World War II baby boom generation, it was both the best of times and the worst of times. (7 words)
There will be many 50-year anniversaries to mark significant events of the 1960s, and a big reason is that what happened in that remarkable era still
resonates
today. At the dawn of that decade of contrasts a half century ago—on Jan. 2 ,1960—a
charismatic
young senator from Massachusetts named John F. Kennedy announced that he was running for president, and he won the nation's highest office the following November. He remains one of the
iconic
figures in U.S. history. On February 1, four determined black men sat at a whites-only lunch counter at a Woolworth's in Greensboro, N.C., and were denied service. Their act of
defiance
triggered a wave of sit-ins for civil rights across the South and brought
unrelenting
national attention to America's original sin of racism. On March 3, Elvis Presley returned to the United States from his Army stint in Germany, resuming his career as a pioneer of rock-and-roll and an icon of the youth culture celebrating freedom and a growing sense of rebellion.(5 words)
By the end of the decade, Kennedy had been
assassinated
, along with his brother Robert and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. America's cities had become powder kegs as African-Americans, despite historic gains toward legal equality, became more impatient than ever at being second-class citizens. Women began demanding their rights in
unprecedented
numbers. Young people and their parents felt a widening generation gap as seen in their differing perceptions of
patriotism
, drug use, sexuality, and the work ethic. The now familiar culture wars between liberals and conservatives caused angry divisions over law and order, busing, racial preferences, abortion, the Vie.

FIrst part
1- I have to interview 4 people ( Indians Chinese....)
(Experts professors students......)
-What kind or type of culture shock they experienced when they first came to Kuwait?
And whether they tolerated? how do they feel where they tolerated by Kuwaitis ?
- why culture tolerance of a foreign country is required in international marketing.
Based on what you learn those people, you will learn about feelings and their problems and difficulties when they first arrived in foreign countries. And knowing this, now you have to take this knowledge and apply to marketing and answer the questions whether it's difficult to adopt to foreign culture if it's difficult for people it's probably will be very difficult to also introduce those products and adopt those products to foreign culture. So that's why am asking you why culture tolerance in other nations are important and required to International marketing. you have to answer those

Sontag argues that while photographs can shock people, they are limited in helping people understand complex issues. Photographs alone do not provide context or narrative to help viewers comprehend what they are seeing. Narratives are better able to help people understand by providing more information and details beyond a single image. This has implications for how contemporary politics and humanitarian organizations use photographs and narrative to educate people and raise awareness.

Chapter 4

Introduction (Slide 1 of 2)
• Managerial decisions are often based on the relationship between two or
more variables:
• Example: After considering the relationship between advertising
expenditures and sales, a marketing manager might attempt to predict sales
for a given level of advertising expenditures.
• Sometimes a manager will rely on intuition to judge how two variables
are related.
• If data can be obtained, a statistical procedure called regression analysis
can be used to develop an equation showing how the variables are
related.

Introduction (Slide 2 of 2)
• Dependent variable or response: Variable being predicted.
• Independent variables or predictor variables: Variables being used
to predict the value of the dependent variable.
• Simple linear regression: A regression analysis for which any one
unit change in the independent variable, x, is assumed to result in
the same change in the dependent variable, y.
• Multiple linear regression: A regression analysis involving two or
more independent variables.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

GGH110 Assignment #2Park UniversityFall 2015Exploring th.docx
- 1. GGH110 Assignment #2 Park University Fall 2015 Exploring the “Core Components” of Culture Groups: For this activity, you will use the Ethnologue website (www.ethnologue.com) and the Adherents website (www.adherents.com) in order to explore the two major “core components” (i.e., language and religion) of the cultures found in the place you have chosen to research this semester. Although some of the data in these resources may be relatively "old" (which really just illustrates the great need for current and sustained research in support of these languages and religions), together they represent perhaps the most comprehensive collection of information about the “core components” of the distinctive culture groups found throughout the world today. As we have recently discussed in this course, language is often used as the most important "defining trait" of many culture groups and the primary means by which they are identified. Thus, exploring the linguistic diversity within a place is arguably the primary starting point for gaining a sense of its cultural diversity. In addition, understanding what the status is of the languages that are spoken in a place is significant because, as the Ethnologue states, “Since language is closely linked to culture, loss of language almost always is accompanied by social and cultural disruptions as well.” Finally, studying the languages of a place through a geolinguistics approach can also reveal a great deal about where a group of people came from and with whom they have been in contact. Therefore, most of this assignment will focus on finding information from Ethnologue.
- 2. Before you begin this assignment, you should take some time to become familiar with the array of information that is presented for each country and its languages on the Ethnologue website. A simple way of doing this is by going to its listing for the United States at the country index page: http://www.ethnologue.com/country_index.asp. Can you find all of the answers to the following questions? · How many total languages are given for the United States? · How many languages are classified as “living”? How many are “nearly extinct”? What seems to be the basis for classifying a language as nearly extinct? · Does the U.S. have an “official language”? If so, what is it? · What is the language family/branch/group classification for each language? · What is the number of people who can speak each one? Where are these speakers primarily located? · What other linguistic trends and patterns catch your attention? Notice that you can also see language maps that show where the people who speak these languages live. Now, go back to the county index page and find the page for the country you have chosen to study for this class. Create a PowerPoint presentation that includes the following content: 1) Slide #1: a. Name of the country/place you are studying b. Go to the CIA World Factbook page for the place you are studying and gather and report the information about the Ethnic groups, Languages, and Religions (these are all found in the “People and Society” section). 2) Slide #2: a. State the number of “living” languages that are listed for the country b. The name of any languages designated as a “national or
- 3. official language” for this country. If none, state that on your slide. c. The names of top 3 most commonly spoken languages in this country d. The total number of people who are estimated to speak each of these languages, and the year that the estimate is from. (Note: you should give the total for each language—not an overall total for all 3) e. Using the current estimated population that you obtained for Assignment #1, calculate the percentage of the population in this country/place that speaks each of these languages f. The language family classification for each—i.e., language family, language branch(es), language group(s). e.g., English is classified as: “Indo-European, Germanic, West” g. Identify the areas in the country/place where each language is primarily spoken. (Note: Do not just list any specific places that the listing might give, such as the name of a particular city or territory. You should describe where this is in the country— i.e., what is its relative location) 3) Slide #3: a. The names of the 2 least spoken languages (i.e., those with at least 1 known speaker) b. The total number of people who are estimated to speak each of these languages, and the year that the estimate is from c. Using the current estimated population that you obtained for Assignment #1, calculate the percentage of the population in this country/place that speaks each of these languages d. Is the language classified as "nearly extinct"? If so, state that e. Identify the areas in the country/place where each language is primarily spoken f. List any other languages that are also classified as “nearly extinct” and give the last known number of known speakers for each of them 4) Slide #4: a. Copy any language maps given for your country and paste
- 4. them on this page. (Note: Most countries only have one map given, but some may have multiple maps. If so, copy all of them and do your best to resize them and arrange them neatly on this one slide.) b. Add a 50 word description of the patterns that you see regarding the geography of the languages used in this place. 5) Slide #5: a. Go to the Adeherents website index of religions sorted by location: http://www.adherents.com/adhloc/indexWhere.html. Find your country and review the various religions listed for it. Count the total number of religions/denominations/sects that reported by this website. NOTE: Do NOT rely on the total number that is given next to your country’s name in the index. This number is really the total number of entries given for the country. Since some religions may have multiple entries (e.g., “Buddhism” may be listed several times, just with some different data), you need to only count any religion/denomination/sect that is listed once. Report this total number on slide #5. b. Based on the most recent total number of adherents reported on this website, list the name of the top 5 religions/denominations/sects c. For each of these faiths, include the following: i. Total number of adherents last reported ii. Using the current total population (from CIA World Factbook), calculate the percentage of the population that this would represent iii. Using the information provided in the “Quotes/Notes” column of the listing, indicate if this faith represents a branch/denomination/sect of a religion (and if so, which one), or if it is its own religion and what its connections to other faiths are 6) Slide #6: a. Write a 150-200 word evaluation of what you have learned about the cultural diversity of this place based on the information you have examined for this assignment. In
- 5. particular, you should compare and contrast the information you found from the CIA World Factbook with the information that you found from the Ethnologue and Adherents websites. CASE 21 – LATE CONFESSION In 1968, Norm Lewis was a 51 year old doctoral candidate in history at the University of Washington. While taking his final exam in the program, he excused himself to go to the bathroom, where he looked at his notes. For the next 32 years, Lewis told no one. At age 83, he decided to confess, and he wrote to the president of the university admitting that he had regretted it ever since. Commenting on the case, Jeanne Wilson, president of the Center for Academic Integrity remarked, “I think there is an important lesson here for students about the costs of cheating. He has felt guilty all these years, and has felt burdened by this secret, believing that he never really earned the degree he was awarded.” Wilson’s position is that the University of Washington should not take action against Lewis, given his confession, his age, and the fact that, after all, he did complete his coursework and a dissertation. But, she added “On the other hand, I think an institution might feel compelled to revoke the degree if we were talking about a medical or law degree or license, or some other professional field such as engineering or education, and the individual were younger and still employed on the basis of that degree or license.” Discuss the ethical issues this case raises, both for Dr. Lewis and for University of Washington officials. Evaluate Jeanne Wilson’s analysis, especially as it might apply to engineers.
