HIS 101 Research Paper Assignment Assignment Your research paper for this class will be based on a historical figure of your choice. You may pick any person who falls within the scope of the course-that means it must be a figure from the Western world (Europe or the Middle East) who lived between the beginning of recorded history and the mid-18th century. This gives you a wide variety of people to pick from, so pick someone who interests you. (Hint: later people are easier to find sources for) The purpose of this assignment is not only for you to learn about a historical figure and time period in a more in-depth fashion than we will be able to do in class, but also for you to improve your writing skills, research skills, and ability to analyze information and create an argument. While this paper is based on a person, it should NOT be solely the story of their life from birth to death, but should make an argument that focuses on the historical events that affected their lives, and the events that they affected. The purpose of a research paper is to do research on a topic in order to gather evidence which you will use to support the argument that you are making. Think about this like you would a science experiment. Your argument, or thesis, is yours, but you need evidence to convince the reader that your argument is true, and that evidence comes from your sources. For example, if you chose Nicolo Machiavelli as your topic, you should spend very little time talking about his early life and career, and more discussing his entry into politics, the changes in his political opinions, how and why he wrote his great work The Prince, and how it affected politics both in his native Italy and across Europe, both in his time and to the present. You should choose something about Machiavelli’s career that you feel you can make an argument about, find evidence that supports that argument, then present it in a concise, well-organized essay. In order to do this, finding good sources is very important! Grading Your final paper will be graded on four major criteria: Thesis: This is the argument of your paper. Does the paper have a strong thesis statement at the beginning? Is the argument addressed throughout the paper? Does the conclusion appropriately address the thesis? Content: Does the paper contain good information? Does it contain all the major events of its’ subject’s life, and does it place these events in the appropriate historical context? Does it demonstrate a clear understanding of the subject’s historical importance? Are the sources used good sources, and are they used well? Did you use appropriate sources (no websites, must have an author and page numbers) and did you use enough in text citations? Style: Is the paper well written? Is it appropriately cited? Is it well organized? Mechanics: Does the paper have correct spelling and good grammar? Citations and Pl ...

Elements of an essay
The document discusses writing a thesis statement for an academic essay. It states that the thesis statement should be placed in the introductory paragraph and act as a "roadmap" for the rest of the essay by telling the reader what the essay will be about. A good thesis statement makes an argument or interpretation, is specific and focused, and indicates how that position will be supported. It should fit at the end of the introductory paragraph and fulfill the purpose of answering the essay question and making a claim.

Essay Writing for this Course
Classes in the Humanities all plan, in some way, to help you develop your writing skills. Many careers you might pursue are heavily
dependent upon your ability to argue your point of view.
We all know everyone has a point of view and has the right to express that view in a socially recognizable manner, and many important
issues on which we have an opinion require far more than 140 characters to be expressed effectively. That is why we still study the
essay form of writing in Humanities courses. The essay is a form of writing that reaches back to 1580, when French philosopher
Michele de Montaigne first published his Essays on topics such as “Of the Custom of Wearing Clothes,” “Of Cannibals,” and “Of the
Inconvenience of Greatness.” Montaigne’s object was to express himself to people he would never meet through his writing. When
you can express yourself in a way that any person who might pick up your paper will easily understand you, writing can make you
influential among colleagues and fellow members of your community.
We all ‘know how to write,’ but there is a mile of difference between being able to write a 5-sentence profile description of ourselves
and being able to write a 5-page paper that tells others whom we don’t know what we think on a particular topic. In other words,
writing is a skill with many levels, just like math. Immediately, we may think that higher level writing is a matter of knowing more
vocabulary words, as in the difference between (2 + 2 =4) and (9u – 4x = 14u + 6x). Higher level writing is more complex, but it is not
more advanced simply because of its complexity. Amazing sentences may be simple, such as: “I think that I shall never see a poem
lovely as a tree.” Likewise, think of how famous (2+2=4) is, as far as equations go!
Learning how to write essays at a higher level is not very difficult once you know the components of a basic 3-5-page essay. There are
10, which we can briefly describe right here, then it’s just a matter of practice! As you see below, each one of these components
counts for an even 10% of the final essay grade, so each one is important. They are color-coded to match the grading rubric below.
1) Thesis/Purpose: In the first paragraph of every academic essay you write, you need a thesis, which states the whole point of the
essay. A thesis must be something another reasonable person could disagree with. It is a point of view on an issue. The thesis is not
usually the first sentence because you need to give the reader a few sentences to get their bearing before you state your point. It is
like meeting a stranger for the first time: if you do not explain why you are approaching someone before laying into your point, they

The document provides guidance on research skills for a history course. It discusses selecting a focused topic, incorporating information through paraphrasing rather than extensive quoting, and including accurate citations in Chicago style. Scanning sources for relevant passages, paraphrasing to demonstrate understanding, and citing work to avoid plagiarism are emphasized.
Ten steps-for-writing-research-papers 3
This document outlines 10 steps for writing a research paper: 1) Select a subject, 2) Narrow the topic, 3) State the thesis, 4) Create a preliminary bibliography, 5) Prepare an outline, 6) Take notes, 7) Create a final outline, 8) Write a rough draft, 9) Edit the draft, 10) Write the final draft including citations and bibliography. Key steps include narrowing the topic, forming a thesis, taking notes to support the thesis, outlining to organize notes, and revising through multiple drafts.
WRITING ADVICEPromptIn 6-8 pages develop an argument.docx
WRITING ADVICE
Prompt
In 6-8 pages develop an argument about the key
factors determining successful presidential
leadership in the modern era (FDR forward).
Your argument should be deeply rooted in the
scholarly literature on the presidency. Develop
your argument in more detail by exploring two
cases where a president attempted to provide
leadership in some way. The cases that you
select should be narrow (e.g. FDR and the
passage of the Social Security Act rather than
FDR and the New Deal).
Prompt (cont.)
You only have a few short pages to discuss each
case and it is better to be an inch wide and a
mile deep than a mile wide and an inch deep. I
think that the easiest way to do this would be to
choose a policy or action widely viewed as a
historical success and another that is widely
viewed as a historical failure (e.g. Truman’s
Marshall Plan and Nixon’s invasion of Cambodia).
However, you do not need to follow this mold.
You could also compare two successes or two
failures.
Prompt (cont.)
In the development of your mini-case studies, you
should draw heavily from the Green Library’s
large collection of newspapers (available online).
For each case, you should be citing from The New
York Times and other online newspaper databases
from the week surrounding the event. This will help
give your cases much more depth. I also
encourage you to find other supplemental
sources like presidential biographies, journal
articles, academic books, primary documents,
and oral histories about the actual event to bolster
What do you need?
A theory of presidential leadership
developed from the scholarly literature
• Two interesting cases that you’ll analyze in
light of that theory
Developing a theory
Look for books and articles about presidential
leadership
• Look for useful references in the “suggested
readings” section of your textbook
• Where do you start? http://library.fiu.edu
• Search books for “presidential leadership” or other
important key terms that you might be interested in
• Sign in from off campus to have access to articles (“Log

• Go to “Find > A-Z List > G > Google Scholar” to make
your way to Google Scholar from off campus
What about the cases?
Explore the appendix in Greenstein (233-274)
• Read newspapers from the time
• Produce copies or directly transcribe into a Word
document with the information that you will need for
citations and references
• “Blah, blah, blah... Marshall Plan...” (Greg A. Halpriggs,
“The Marshall Plan,” NY Times, March 27th, 1948, Section
A-11, Paragraph 4). Not an actual citation or reference
(just the info you will eventually need)
• Look for scholarly works on the cases in the
same way that you did for your theory
Organization
Write a strong thesis statement that clearly
elaborates your main argument and organizes
your paper:
• Ex. “Ultimately, the paper contends that the failure of
President Nixon’s invasion of Cambod.
Thesis Writing Guidelines
The document provides guidelines for writing a dissertation, outlining three main stages: planning, research, and writing. In the planning stage, students are advised to select a supervisor and choose a topic. For research, they should find information, draft a thesis statement, and create an outline. The writing stage involves drafting the thesis, revising, and typing the final draft. Supervisors expect dissertations to follow accepted methodologies and incorporate feedback. When choosing a topic, factors like relevance, supervision, interest, and competence should be considered. The topic should be narrow in scope and expressed concisely in the title. Outlines help achieve a well-organized thesis by showing how topics relate.

It also offers tips on researching, planning, writing, and citing sources for the essay. Students are directed to a class website for additional help and resources.
Consider the following points when researching and writing your pape.docx
Consider the following points when researching and writing your paper
:
1) Briefly describe the issues involved in the case. Identify the plaintiff and defendant.
2) When did it occur? What contexts (historical, political, judicial, etc.) are important to understanding the case and its outcome?
3) How and where did the case originate? What were the decisions of the lower courts (if any)?
4) Provide relevant details about the Court itself. What was the final vote tally on the decision? Who was the Chief Justice? Who wrote the majority decision? Discuss their backgrounds, if important. You can
pay for a paper to be written
here.
5) How was the decision situated with regard to existing constitutional precedents? Did it build on them or represent a new direction? Place your case firmly in the context of important related decisions.
6) Were there significant dissents to the decision of the Court majority? How was the decision publicly received? Was it politically controversial? Who favored and who opposed it?
7) Describe the significance of the Court’s decision in both the short and long term. Remember, the specific details of the case itself are sometimes less important than the platform that the decision provided for the Court to set forth doctrines of much wider significance.
Some papers may focus on one or more of these questions as opposed to others, depending on their relative importance to the particular case. But understanding historical events means placing them in contexts, so the second question always deserves attention in your paper.
Research Paper Guidelines
Each student will submit an original report of six-to-twelve full pages (plus a Works Cited list) on the origins, outcome, significance, and context of a Supreme Court decision from a preapproved list. These papers are due in three groups on dates staggered throughout the semester. Students should also be present and prepared to informally discuss their case and answer questions about it in class on the date that the decision is listed on the detailed weekly course schedule.
Format Requirements
:
1) Papers should run at least 6 full pages in length and no more than 12. No headers or footers except page numbers should appear in the text of the paper.
2) Separately include a cover page (title, name, course info, etc.) and a Works Cited list.
3) Use a 12-point font (Times New Roman or Arial
only
!)
4) All lines of the text should be double-spaced. Do
not
place an extra line between paragraphs.
5) Margins should be one-inch in width (top, bottom, and both sides).
Submission
: The due dates for Groups 1, 2, and 3 are listed on the syllabus. Papers must be submitted in hardcopy and also uploaded online to the E-Learn dropbox. If you have trouble, then send me the paper as an e-mail attachment. All electronic versions should be saved and uploaded as

The Renaissance artists Titian, Rembrandt, and Durer have each painted self-portraits. Imagine yourself as one of these artists (or another artist of your choice that has painted a self-portrait) and write a journal expressing your thoughts on “your” art (in other words, the journal entries the artist would probably write.) (1) Explain “your” primary reason for painting a self-portrait. (2) Describe “your” artistic choices in composition: use of color, space, etc. (3) Explain what the portrait represents about “you” (as the artist.) (4) Explain “your” choices of subject with regard to at least three other specific pieces “you” have painted.
Ladies & Gentlemen.
Survey & Report.
Some may believe that being “gentleman” or a “lady” in today’s society is an outdated notion, but others may disagree. (1) Briefly summarize the main characteristics of a well-rounded person, “l’uomo universal,” referring to specific sections within the excerpt from
The Courtier
which identifies these characteristics. (2) Create a “survey” based on the identified characteristics and “poll” at least ten people to find out whether or not the characteristics are rel.
What is a literature review A literature review is NOT.docx
What is a literature review?
A literature review is NOT a book review; it is a review of the literature. THE literature, in this
case, means all of the research you have collected. Your secondary sources only. The
scholarship.
So, why am I doing this?
Because good researchers—good writers—do it. You may be tempted to just jump directly from
gathering materials to writing an essay (or you may have been tempted to skip the research part
altogether); however, before you can write an essay, you need to identify a purpose for your
writing and develop a plan for using your sources. You need to synthesize; the lit review is that
synthesis. This is also an important step in proving your expertise before I allow you to edit and
annotate a fairy tale.
So, what am I looking for?
Basically, you are looking for patterns of association; you want to look at the body of scholarship
(the literature) you have collected and decide how it all works together. You need to see the
literature as a body of research rather than separate pieces. The scholarship is written by real
scholars who are familiar with one another’s work and sometimes know each other personally; it
is a kind of elaborate conversation. You are listening to that conversation, waiting for a good
opportunity to jump in.
So, I have six pieces of literature to review, right?
Well, you have AT LEAST six pieces. It will actually be easier to write a lit review of more
sources; eight or ten sources would be a good number. This does require more research and more
time for reading, but the payoff is greater expertise and more to discuss in the review.
Okay, so what do I do first?
First, make sure you have gathered the literature. For this assignment, I am only permitting you
to use the CSCC Library databases to gather your sources. Specifically, you will look at the
Academic Search Complete, MLA International Bibliography, and Literary Reference Center
databases; if these don’t turn up 6-10 good sources for you, then you can search other databases
(and I have posted a video showing you how to do this research, so make sure you watch it). You
are NOT permitted to locate web based sources, even via Google scholar. And I am asking you
not to use books, simply to save time.
And then?
Once you have all of the literature, you should read it and understand it. It isn’t absolutely
necessary to pore over each page of each source—this would likely be hundreds of pages of
difficult reading. Use your reading skills—the first two or three pages usually contain the thesis
and main arguments—the last couple of pages will often contain some kind of summary or
conclusion. Look for important headings in between. I strongly suggest highlighting the thesis
(probably more than a single sentence) and the main points (topic sentences) and any interesting
passages you may want to reference later.
But how do I write the lit review?
You should begin by grou.
Reading Journal for World HistoryYour journal includes refle.docx
Reading Journal for World History
Your journal includes reflections and observations on the reading. This is an opportunity to share your perspective on the topics you find most interesting. You may also want to share your insights on the type of questions historians address and how we attempt to understand societies.
Starting with Chapter 2 you will notice a particular feature called “Sources from the Past”. Please use two or more of these sections each time you turn in your journal. Put the title of the document in bold so I will know which documents you read. For example, you might have read selections from the
Epic of Gilgamesh
or
Hammurabi's Laws
. Relate the document to the events in the chapter.
I also encourage you to write about pictures, maps, or other features you find in the reading.
You do not have to write about every chapter. Usually you get the best results if you take on one or two topics each time you turn in the journal. It helps if you label the topics. You may use any style, but please divide your writing into paragraphs.
You can earn 50 points for two and a half solid pages (double spaced) of quality writing. You are welcome to write more and you can earn up to 60 points for each time it is assigned. I mainly consider how much you have thought about topics in the reading and how you use the documents or other evidence available in the chapters.
Suggested Journal Prompts
Here are some prompts that you might want to use:
1.
What did you find most interesting or surprising (in a particular section)? How does the material relate to what you learned earlier, perhaps in other classes?
2.
What trends do you seen in this chapter that have shaped the world we live in today?
3.
If you did a movie set in the time period of this chapter, what would be the key elements in your movie? Tell how you imagine some of the characters, and what challenges they would face.
4.
Describe the time span covered in this chapter. How does the span relate to key events? Why do you think the authors chose this span of time? Would you arrange it differently?
5.
How might we understand the history differently from someone living in the time period? Do you think people will react to this chapter differently, depending on their cultural background?
6.
When examining a document: What is the historical context? What do we know about the source? How can the document help us understand the society in that time and place?

English 103 Essay 4:
Research Essay Assignment (Final Draft)
Your last written assignment for this class is a
6 to 8-page, 1,500 to 1,800-word
research essay
on a current issue or enduring question of your choice.
You will use documented source material to support your essay’s thesis.
A research essay presents and develops a thesis supporting multiple sources of opinion. You stake out a subject narrow enough to be researched and you steep yourself in it. Then you formulate a thesis -- your own attitude or opinion on the subject -- and present it in a persuasive form, along with facts, opinions, and information that prove it true. You should use appeals and other methods to support your thesis, but you should also analyze each source you plan to use to support your thesis.
THE PARTS OF A RESEARCH ESSAY
There are two parts to a Research Essay:
The
text
(six or more pages and 1,500 to 1,800 words)
The
works cited page
(one or more pages)
RESEARCH ESSAY FORMAT
Much of the writing in your research essay comes from the work of other writers, and you must give proper credit by citing (mentioning) these sources in your paper. The art of citing is called documentation, which is required for any information falling into the following three categories:
Any judgment, opinion, speculation or theory that is not original (unless it is universally known and accepted).
Any fact or statistic open to dispute.
Any information provided by a specific observer, even by an expert in his or her field (for example, opinions of psychologists on child abuse).
QUOTATIONS
AND CITATIONS
You will use quotations to include information from your sources in your essay. For example, if you were quoting a
Newsweek
magazine article on the Virgin Mary by Kenneth L. Woodward, you could write:
Kenneth L. Woodward, in his article on the Virgin Mary, writes that "the 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
According to Kenneth L. Woodward, the 20th century has "belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
Kenneth L. Woodward writes: "The 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
You will use
the MLA (Modern Languages Association) style
for parenthetical documentation to list your sources on your Works Cited page, which is the last page of your essay.
You must use
at least four sources
(one or more from each of the following categories) and list them on your works cited page:
one
book;
one
periodical (magazine, journal or newspaper) article;
one
website;
one “multimedia” source:
a film, video, DVD, painting, musical piece, etc.).
These sources should be listed in alphabetical order, by the author's last name. Your source listings for books should look like this: Author's last name, author's first name, title of book, name of publisher, and year of publication.
For example, if we were listing author Ba ...

Writing Project #1 (200 points)
Can I Teach That?
Controversial Issues in Children’s Literature
Choose a controversial issue and/or text within children’s literature that you would like to research and defend. Consider the scenario that you plan to teach this text or issue to your future students but there has been a complaint about your choice. The result of that complaint is that you must defend your chosen text to the school board and parents. Because you will want to be more than prepared to argue your case before a panel of concerned parents and administrators, you must be an expert on the matter. That expertise only comes from research and writing.
For this project, you need to 1) write a research proposal providing the topic of your research; 2) create an annotated bibliography of at least four different sources (both primary and secondary); and 3) write a researched argument defending your topic that includes both primary research (ie: examples from the texts you are writing about) and secondary research (ie: analysis or arguments that you can develop, that support your claim or that challenge your research). This project is meant to give you an opportunity for in-depth study of a particular issue of interest to you within children’s literature.
For this assignment:
· You will need to do some research before you write your proposal. The proposal should be a paragraph where you describe the topic/focus of your research.
· Make sure you have access to the sources you’ll need BEFORE you create the proposal. Also, it will help you streamline your research if you have a specific direction in mind.
· Research thoroughly. Educate yourself on this topic.
· Brainstorming can help you focus and execute your research. Your mini-portfolio for this project should include both research and brainstorming activities (free writes, etc.).
· Remember to use the databases from our library.
· As you research, focus on a thesis statement that will guide your writing. Choose something that interests you and you will have a better writing experience and result.
· Imagine your audience to be well educated concerned parents and colleagues who want to broaden their knowledge in order to make a responsible decision.
· Think about imaginative ways to introduce and develop your topic.
· MLA Format is required.
Details:
· Proposal is due to GC midnight Monday, 9/5.
· Annotated Bibliography is due to GC midnight Sunday, 9/11
· Press Conferences begin Monday, 9/12. You will present your proposal and Annotated Bibliography to the class
· Rough draft due in class to “share” for workshop on Wednesday, 9/21
· All papers must be “commented” by midnight Friday, 9/23

Elit 48 c class 16
The document discusses how World War II transformed the United States into a global superpower. It summarizes President Roosevelt's 1941 "fireside chat" where he told Americans that the country would win the war and the ensuing peace. As a result of its newfound power at home and abroad, American culture was reshaped for the rest of the 20th century. The war cost 50-70 million lives worldwide and introduced the possibility of nuclear warfare, radically changing global politics for decades to come. The post-war period saw the emergence of the Cold War between the U.S. and U.S.S.R. as they built up nuclear arsenals and allied smaller nations to their sides.
QuestionWas the pursuit of ideals or material gains more impo.docx
Question:
Was the pursuit of ideals or material gains more important in shaping
the United States in the years before 1865? Answer this question in 2-3 pages using evidence that supports your position.
Explanation:
Throughout the first half of HIST 2010, we’ve covered a number of factors that have shaped the development of the United States from a collection of British Colonies into an independent and united political entity. The factors at work in this process can be grouped into two general categories: those driven by ideology (religion, political and other types of philosophical beliefs) and those driven by material concerns (land acquisition, the desire to accumulate wealth, etc). While there is no doubt that both types of factors were important in these years, do you find ideology or material concerns to be the
most
important? Pick one or the other and argue for that position. Make sure to use
plenty of evidence from the course readings.
Assignment Overview
:
You must back up your argument/thesis with
plenty of evidence
that supports your position. The purpose of this assignment is to show that you know and understand the material we’ve covered in this course, so you should include evidence from several readings and
use only the materials assigned for HIST 2010 (ie no outside sources).
In other words, you should do well to demonstrate that you know the material in this course. Anyone can give an opinion based on how they
feel
, but you are scholars, so what I expect is that you take an informed position that is based on what you
can prove with evidence
. If you choose to turn in a paper with few sources to back up your thesis, then you choose to receive a poor grade on this paper. Papers that draw only a single source will receive a maximum grade of a D.
In order to receive full credit for this assignment, you must turn in
both
of the following to the dropbox on D2L.
-A typed copy of your paper
-An audio copy of you reading your paper
***- Your assignment will not be considered fully submitted until you have turned in both of these.
Required Guidelines:
(You can use this as a check list before you turn in your paper)
-Your paper must have a title page that includes your name, course, and section number, and the semester. This page does not count toward the limit. Your paper should begin on the first line of the page that follows your title page.
-The paper must be in 12 point Times New Roman font with 1.25” margins at left and right and 1” margins at top an bottom. It must be double-spaced. Failing to meet these requirements will lead to a deduction in your grade.
-You may only use sources assigned for this course. Though there are many great sources out there, an important part of this assignment is showing me that you’ve read the materials I’ve assigned and understand them well enough to use them in your paper.
-If you plagiarize on this paper, you will be given a failing grade for the course and you will.

c. e. Analysis Paper
Assignment: Each student in this class will be responsible for completing a current event analysis paper. This means that you will be analyzing a current event and its connection a World War II event. This paper will be a minimum four (4) to five (5) typed pages with double-spaced, Times New Roman font, and one inch margins on all sides of the paper.
Source: Each paper will include a careful analysis of a current event topic from a major news source. The source can be an internet source, but cannot be a blog or unpublished source. The source must be a national/internationally-recognized news source (e.g. The New York Times, The Washington Post, BBC news, etc…) A copy of this source must be attached to your paper. Any source you use for your historical information (other than class notes) must be documented as well.
A Work cited page must be included in this paper. (MLA or APA guidelines)
Event: You may choose any current events topic, however you must tie the topic to any event in World War II (this does not have to be an event that was extensively covered in class, so long that it deals with WWII).
· Your WW2 topic has to have occurred between the years of 1918 (the end of WWI) and 1945 (the end of WWII).
· Your modern day event has to have occurred in the past 10 years.
· Please clear your topic with me if you are unsure of its appropriateness!!!
Objective: The thesis/objective of your paper must relate your WWII topic and current event topic together in at least one of the following ways:
1) Challenge arguments of historical inevitability by giving examples of how different choices could have led to different consequences. Explain in your paper how an event in WWII could have affected history drastically had in occurred in a different manner. Then connect this concept with an event in contemporary times and explain how different choices in modern society and lead to different possible consequences. (For example, explain how FDR’s decision to intern Japanese-Americans could have affected WW2 and then tie George W. Bush’s decision to support the Patriot Act could have affected the modern-day United States.)
2) Analyze proposed solution to current issues from the perspectives of diverse cultural groups. Choose a WWII event that identifies a particular dilemma/issue of the WWII era and examine how different groups may have viewed the issue (e.g. Jewish relocation/concentration in Germany, the U.S. military draft in WWII, the rationing of food in wartime America, etc…) Similarly, take any current issue in the public eye (e.g. healthcare, war, abortion, welfare, etc...) and tie how this topic is viewed by contemporary cultures. You should be able to tie the cultural perspective of both issues together in the paper.
3) Identify and analyze an issue related to domestic or foreign policy in the United States (e.g. human rights, intervention in conflicts between other countries, or healthcare). Exami ...

Introduction Ideally, program andor policy interventio.docx
Introduction Ideally, program and/or policy interventions must seek to address an identified challenge/gap in a given sector/segment of society (McDavid & Hawthorn, 2013). To enable stakeholders make informed decisions on what program/policy choices to make there is the need for information and such information can be gathered through a process known as evaluation – the outcome of an evaluation process creates/provides information and this information influences policy choices and/or programmatic interventions (McDavid & Hawthorn, 2013). In this post, I briefly describe the Mentoring Gang Involved-Youth Project with is being implemented by Roca Inc, a Massachusetts-based nonprofit working with young male adults from Boston, Chelsea, and Springfield Massachusetts. I also explain the type of evaluation employed in evaluating the Project and the kind of data used for the evaluation and I indicate whether comparisons were used. Description of the project According to the Justice Center: Council of State Governments (2012), the Mentoring-gang Involved-Youth Project, targets young male adults between the ages of 17 and 24 who are suffering from substance abuse and are in detention. The primary objective of the Project is to reduce incarceration rates and enhance the ability of participants to retain employment (Roca, 2016). Under the Project, it is recognized that participants lack healthy relationships that will help them say away from criminal and/or antisocial behavior hence under the program three types of mentoring support are offered (Justice Center: Council of State Governments, 2012). The Justice Center: Council of State Governments (2012) informs its readers that mentoring support, under the Project, extends to supporting participants get jobs and remain employed. The project proceeds under the philosophy that keeping participants occurred by positive activities steers them away from antisocial criminal behavior (Justice Center: Council of State Governments, 2012). Some of the mentors under the Project have served jail time and successfully reintegrated into the community and are deemed to be role models hence using them to mentor participants is seen as offering participants with real life examples of persons who were just like them and have managed to emancipate themselves from the hands of criminal/antisocial conduct and are living better lives. Cognitive-restructuring is the objective of the Project and it seeks to achieve this through skills development and behavioral change for/of participants (Roca, 2016). Where this Project successfully restructures the cognitive behavior of participants and they acquire skills and get employment, their economic situation will change and this will translate into economic development. According to Roca (2016) the Project runs for four years - the first two years focus on inculcating into participants behavioral change whilst the remaining period focuses on sustaining the positive ch.

Consider the following points when researching and writing your pape.docx
Consider the following points when researching and writing your paper
:
1) Briefly describe the issues involved in the case. Identify the plaintiff and defendant.
2) When did it occur? What contexts (historical, political, judicial, etc.) are important to understanding the case and its outcome?
3) How and where did the case originate? What were the decisions of the lower courts (if any)?
4) Provide relevant details about the Court itself. What was the final vote tally on the decision? Who was the Chief Justice? Who wrote the majority decision? Discuss their backgrounds, if important. You can
pay for a paper to be written
here.
5) How was the decision situated with regard to existing constitutional precedents? Did it build on them or represent a new direction? Place your case firmly in the context of important related decisions.
6) Were there significant dissents to the decision of the Court majority? How was the decision publicly received? Was it politically controversial? Who favored and who opposed it?
7) Describe the significance of the Court’s decision in both the short and long term. Remember, the specific details of the case itself are sometimes less important than the platform that the decision provided for the Court to set forth doctrines of much wider significance.
Some papers may focus on one or more of these questions as opposed to others, depending on their relative importance to the particular case. But understanding historical events means placing them in contexts, so the second question always deserves attention in your paper.
Research Paper Guidelines
Each student will submit an original report of six-to-twelve full pages (plus a Works Cited list) on the origins, outcome, significance, and context of a Supreme Court decision from a preapproved list. These papers are due in three groups on dates staggered throughout the semester. Students should also be present and prepared to informally discuss their case and answer questions about it in class on the date that the decision is listed on the detailed weekly course schedule.
Format Requirements
:
1) Papers should run at least 6 full pages in length and no more than 12. No headers or footers except page numbers should appear in the text of the paper.
2) Separately include a cover page (title, name, course info, etc.) and a Works Cited list.
3) Use a 12-point font (Times New Roman or Arial
only
!)
4) All lines of the text should be double-spaced. Do
not
place an extra line between paragraphs.
5) Margins should be one-inch in width (top, bottom, and both sides).
Submission
: The due dates for Groups 1, 2, and 3 are listed on the syllabus. Papers must be submitted in hardcopy and also uploaded online to the E-Learn dropbox. If you have trouble, then send me the paper as an e-mail attachment. All electronic versions should be saved and uploaded as

Topic choices (pick 1):
Self-Portraits.
Journal.
The Renaissance artists Titian, Rembrandt, and Durer have each painted self-portraits. Imagine yourself as one of these artists (or another artist of your choice that has painted a self-portrait) and write a journal expressing your thoughts on “your” art (in other words, the journal entries the artist would probably write.) (1) Explain “your” primary reason for painting a self-portrait. (2) Describe “your” artistic choices in composition: use of color, space, etc. (3) Explain what the portrait represents about “you” (as the artist.) (4) Explain “your” choices of subject with regard to at least three other specific pieces “you” have painted.
Ladies & Gentlemen.
Survey & Report.
Some may believe that being “gentleman” or a “lady” in today’s society is an outdated notion, but others may disagree. (1) Briefly summarize the main characteristics of a well-rounded person, “l’uomo universal,” referring to specific sections within the excerpt from
The Courtier
which identifies these characteristics. (2) Create a “survey” based on the identified characteristics and “poll” at least ten people to find out whether or not the characteristics are rel.
What is a literature review A literature review is NOT.docx
What is a literature review?
A literature review is NOT a book review; it is a review of the literature. THE literature, in this
case, means all of the research you have collected. Your secondary sources only. The
scholarship.
So, why am I doing this?
Because good researchers—good writers—do it. You may be tempted to just jump directly from
gathering materials to writing an essay (or you may have been tempted to skip the research part
altogether); however, before you can write an essay, you need to identify a purpose for your
writing and develop a plan for using your sources. You need to synthesize; the lit review is that
synthesis. This is also an important step in proving your expertise before I allow you to edit and
annotate a fairy tale.
So, what am I looking for?
Basically, you are looking for patterns of association; you want to look at the body of scholarship
(the literature) you have collected and decide how it all works together. You need to see the
literature as a body of research rather than separate pieces. The scholarship is written by real
scholars who are familiar with one another’s work and sometimes know each other personally; it
is a kind of elaborate conversation. You are listening to that conversation, waiting for a good
opportunity to jump in.
So, I have six pieces of literature to review, right?
Well, you have AT LEAST six pieces. It will actually be easier to write a lit review of more
sources; eight or ten sources would be a good number. This does require more research and more
time for reading, but the payoff is greater expertise and more to discuss in the review.
Okay, so what do I do first?
First, make sure you have gathered the literature. For this assignment, I am only permitting you
to use the CSCC Library databases to gather your sources. Specifically, you will look at the
Academic Search Complete, MLA International Bibliography, and Literary Reference Center
databases; if these don’t turn up 6-10 good sources for you, then you can search other databases
(and I have posted a video showing you how to do this research, so make sure you watch it). You
are NOT permitted to locate web based sources, even via Google scholar. And I am asking you
not to use books, simply to save time.
And then?
Once you have all of the literature, you should read it and understand it. It isn’t absolutely
necessary to pore over each page of each source—this would likely be hundreds of pages of
difficult reading. Use your reading skills—the first two or three pages usually contain the thesis
and main arguments—the last couple of pages will often contain some kind of summary or
conclusion. Look for important headings in between. I strongly suggest highlighting the thesis
(probably more than a single sentence) and the main points (topic sentences) and any interesting
passages you may want to reference later.
But how do I write the lit review?
You should begin by grou.
Reading Journal for World HistoryYour journal includes refle.docx
Reading Journal for World History
Your journal includes reflections and observations on the reading. This is an opportunity to share your perspective on the topics you find most interesting. You may also want to share your insights on the type of questions historians address and how we attempt to understand societies.
Starting with Chapter 2 you will notice a particular feature called “Sources from the Past”. Please use two or more of these sections each time you turn in your journal. Put the title of the document in bold so I will know which documents you read. For example, you might have read selections from the
Epic of Gilgamesh
or
Hammurabi's Laws
. Relate the document to the events in the chapter.
I also encourage you to write about pictures, maps, or other features you find in the reading.
You do not have to write about every chapter. Usually you get the best results if you take on one or two topics each time you turn in the journal. It helps if you label the topics. You may use any style, but please divide your writing into paragraphs.
You can earn 50 points for two and a half solid pages (double spaced) of quality writing. You are welcome to write more and you can earn up to 60 points for each time it is assigned. I mainly consider how much you have thought about topics in the reading and how you use the documents or other evidence available in the chapters.
Suggested Journal Prompts
Here are some prompts that you might want to use:
1.
What did you find most interesting or surprising (in a particular section)? How does the material relate to what you learned earlier, perhaps in other classes?
2.
What trends do you seen in this chapter that have shaped the world we live in today?
3.
If you did a movie set in the time period of this chapter, what would be the key elements in your movie? Tell how you imagine some of the characters, and what challenges they would face.
4.
Describe the time span covered in this chapter. How does the span relate to key events? Why do you think the authors chose this span of time? Would you arrange it differently?
5.
How might we understand the history differently from someone living in the time period? Do you think people will react to this chapter differently, depending on their cultural background?
6.
When examining a document: What is the historical context? What do we know about the source? How can the document help us understand the society in that time and place?

Research Essay Assignment (Final Draft)
Your last written assignment for this class is a
6 to 8-page, 1,500 to 1,800-word
research essay
on a current issue or enduring question of your choice.
You will use documented source material to support your essay’s thesis.
A research essay presents and develops a thesis supporting multiple sources of opinion. You stake out a subject narrow enough to be researched and you steep yourself in it. Then you formulate a thesis -- your own attitude or opinion on the subject -- and present it in a persuasive form, along with facts, opinions, and information that prove it true. You should use appeals and other methods to support your thesis, but you should also analyze each source you plan to use to support your thesis.
THE PARTS OF A RESEARCH ESSAY
There are two parts to a Research Essay:
The
text
(six or more pages and 1,500 to 1,800 words)
The
works cited page
(one or more pages)
RESEARCH ESSAY FORMAT
Much of the writing in your research essay comes from the work of other writers, and you must give proper credit by citing (mentioning) these sources in your paper. The art of citing is called documentation, which is required for any information falling into the following three categories:
Any judgment, opinion, speculation or theory that is not original (unless it is universally known and accepted).
Any fact or statistic open to dispute.
Any information provided by a specific observer, even by an expert in his or her field (for example, opinions of psychologists on child abuse).
QUOTATIONS
AND CITATIONS
You will use quotations to include information from your sources in your essay. For example, if you were quoting a
Newsweek
magazine article on the Virgin Mary by Kenneth L. Woodward, you could write:
Kenneth L. Woodward, in his article on the Virgin Mary, writes that "the 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
According to Kenneth L. Woodward, the 20th century has "belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
Kenneth L. Woodward writes: "The 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
You will use
the MLA (Modern Languages Association) style
for parenthetical documentation to list your sources on your Works Cited page, which is the last page of your essay.
You must use
at least four sources
(one or more from each of the following categories) and list them on your works cited page:
one
book;
one
periodical (magazine, journal or newspaper) article;
one
website;
one “multimedia” source:
a film, video, DVD, painting, musical piece, etc.).
These sources should be listed in alphabetical order, by the author's last name. Your source listings for books should look like this: Author's last name, author's first name, title of book, name of publisher, and year of publication.
For example, if we were listing author Ba ...

Can I Teach That?
Controversial Issues in Children’s Literature
Choose a controversial issue and/or text within children’s literature that you would like to research and defend. Consider the scenario that you plan to teach this text or issue to your future students but there has been a complaint about your choice. The result of that complaint is that you must defend your chosen text to the school board and parents. Because you will want to be more than prepared to argue your case before a panel of concerned parents and administrators, you must be an expert on the matter. That expertise only comes from research and writing.
For this project, you need to 1) write a research proposal providing the topic of your research; 2) create an annotated bibliography of at least four different sources (both primary and secondary); and 3) write a researched argument defending your topic that includes both primary research (ie: examples from the texts you are writing about) and secondary research (ie: analysis or arguments that you can develop, that support your claim or that challenge your research). This project is meant to give you an opportunity for in-depth study of a particular issue of interest to you within children’s literature.
For this assignment:
· You will need to do some research before you write your proposal. The proposal should be a paragraph where you describe the topic/focus of your research.
· Make sure you have access to the sources you’ll need BEFORE you create the proposal. Also, it will help you streamline your research if you have a specific direction in mind.
· Research thoroughly. Educate yourself on this topic.
· Brainstorming can help you focus and execute your research. Your mini-portfolio for this project should include both research and brainstorming activities (free writes, etc.).
· Remember to use the databases from our library.
· As you research, focus on a thesis statement that will guide your writing. Choose something that interests you and you will have a better writing experience and result.
· Imagine your audience to be well educated concerned parents and colleagues who want to broaden their knowledge in order to make a responsible decision.
· Think about imaginative ways to introduce and develop your topic.
· MLA Format is required.
Details:
· Proposal is due to GC midnight Monday, 9/5.
· Annotated Bibliography is due to GC midnight Sunday, 9/11
· Press Conferences begin Monday, 9/12. You will present your proposal and Annotated Bibliography to the class
· Rough draft due in class to “share” for workshop on Wednesday, 9/21
· All papers must be “commented” by midnight Friday, 9/23
· Final Draft due to GC by midnight Monday, 9/26
· Length Requirement: minimum 1200 words not including Works Cited

Elit 48 c class 16
The document discusses how World War II transformed the United States into a global superpower. It summarizes President Roosevelt's 1941 "fireside chat" where he told Americans that the country would win the war and the ensuing peace. As a result of its newfound power at home and abroad, American culture was reshaped for the rest of the 20th century. The war cost 50-70 million lives worldwide and introduced the possibility of nuclear warfare, radically changing global politics for decades to come. The post-war period saw the emergence of the Cold War between the U.S. and U.S.S.R. as they built up nuclear arsenals and allied smaller nations to their sides.
QuestionWas the pursuit of ideals or material gains more impo.docx
Question:
Was the pursuit of ideals or material gains more important in shaping
the United States in the years before 1865? Answer this question in 2-3 pages using evidence that supports your position.
Explanation:
Throughout the first half of HIST 2010, we’ve covered a number of factors that have shaped the development of the United States from a collection of British Colonies into an independent and united political entity. The factors at work in this process can be grouped into two general categories: those driven by ideology (religion, political and other types of philosophical beliefs) and those driven by material concerns (land acquisition, the desire to accumulate wealth, etc). While there is no doubt that both types of factors were important in these years, do you find ideology or material concerns to be the
most
important? Pick one or the other and argue for that position. Make sure to use
plenty of evidence from the course readings.
Assignment Overview
:
You must back up your argument/thesis with
plenty of evidence
that supports your position. The purpose of this assignment is to show that you know and understand the material we’ve covered in this course, so you should include evidence from several readings and
use only the materials assigned for HIST 2010 (ie no outside sources).
In other words, you should do well to demonstrate that you know the material in this course. Anyone can give an opinion based on how they
feel
, but you are scholars, so what I expect is that you take an informed position that is based on what you
can prove with evidence
. If you choose to turn in a paper with few sources to back up your thesis, then you choose to receive a poor grade on this paper. Papers that draw only a single source will receive a maximum grade of a D.
In order to receive full credit for this assignment, you must turn in
both
of the following to the dropbox on D2L.
-A typed copy of your paper
-An audio copy of you reading your paper
***- Your assignment will not be considered fully submitted until you have turned in both of these.
Required Guidelines:
(You can use this as a check list before you turn in your paper)
-Your paper must have a title page that includes your name, course, and section number, and the semester. This page does not count toward the limit. Your paper should begin on the first line of the page that follows your title page.
-The paper must be in 12 point Times New Roman font with 1.25” margins at left and right and 1” margins at top an bottom. It must be double-spaced. Failing to meet these requirements will lead to a deduction in your grade.
-You may only use sources assigned for this course. Though there are many great sources out there, an important part of this assignment is showing me that you’ve read the materials I’ve assigned and understand them well enough to use them in your paper.
-If you plagiarize on this paper, you will be given a failing grade for the course and you will.

c. e. Analysis Paper
Assignment: Each student in this class will be responsible for completing a current event analysis paper. This means that you will be analyzing a current event and its connection a World War II event. This paper will be a minimum four (4) to five (5) typed pages with double-spaced, Times New Roman font, and one inch margins on all sides of the paper.
Source: Each paper will include a careful analysis of a current event topic from a major news source. The source can be an internet source, but cannot be a blog or unpublished source. The source must be a national/internationally-recognized news source (e.g. The New York Times, The Washington Post, BBC news, etc…) A copy of this source must be attached to your paper. Any source you use for your historical information (other than class notes) must be documented as well.
A Work cited page must be included in this paper. (MLA or APA guidelines)
Event: You may choose any current events topic, however you must tie the topic to any event in World War II (this does not have to be an event that was extensively covered in class, so long that it deals with WWII).
· Your WW2 topic has to have occurred between the years of 1918 (the end of WWI) and 1945 (the end of WWII).
· Your modern day event has to have occurred in the past 10 years.
· Please clear your topic with me if you are unsure of its appropriateness!!!
Objective: The thesis/objective of your paper must relate your WWII topic and current event topic together in at least one of the following ways:
1) Challenge arguments of historical inevitability by giving examples of how different choices could have led to different consequences. Explain in your paper how an event in WWII could have affected history drastically had in occurred in a different manner. Then connect this concept with an event in contemporary times and explain how different choices in modern society and lead to different possible consequences. (For example, explain how FDR’s decision to intern Japanese-Americans could have affected WW2 and then tie George W. Bush’s decision to support the Patriot Act could have affected the modern-day United States.)
2) Analyze proposed solution to current issues from the perspectives of diverse cultural groups. Choose a WWII event that identifies a particular dilemma/issue of the WWII era and examine how different groups may have viewed the issue (e.g. Jewish relocation/concentration in Germany, the U.S. military draft in WWII, the rationing of food in wartime America, etc…) Similarly, take any current issue in the public eye (e.g. healthcare, war, abortion, welfare, etc...) and tie how this topic is viewed by contemporary cultures. You should be able to tie the cultural perspective of both issues together in the paper.
3) Identify and analyze an issue related to domestic or foreign policy in the United States (e.g. human rights, intervention in conflicts between other countries, or healthcare). Exami ...

Introduction Ideally, program andor policy interventio.docx
Introduction Ideally, program and/or policy interventions must seek to address an identified challenge/gap in a given sector/segment of society (McDavid & Hawthorn, 2013). To enable stakeholders make informed decisions on what program/policy choices to make there is the need for information and such information can be gathered through a process known as evaluation – the outcome of an evaluation process creates/provides information and this information influences policy choices and/or programmatic interventions (McDavid & Hawthorn, 2013). In this post, I briefly describe the Mentoring Gang Involved-Youth Project with is being implemented by Roca Inc, a Massachusetts-based nonprofit working with young male adults from Boston, Chelsea, and Springfield Massachusetts. I also explain the type of evaluation employed in evaluating the Project and the kind of data used for the evaluation and I indicate whether comparisons were used. Description of the project According to the Justice Center: Council of State Governments (2012), the Mentoring-gang Involved-Youth Project, targets young male adults between the ages of 17 and 24 who are suffering from substance abuse and are in detention. The primary objective of the Project is to reduce incarceration rates and enhance the ability of participants to retain employment (Roca, 2016). Under the Project, it is recognized that participants lack healthy relationships that will help them say away from criminal and/or antisocial behavior hence under the program three types of mentoring support are offered (Justice Center: Council of State Governments, 2012). The Justice Center: Council of State Governments (2012) informs its readers that mentoring support, under the Project, extends to supporting participants get jobs and remain employed. The project proceeds under the philosophy that keeping participants occurred by positive activities steers them away from antisocial criminal behavior (Justice Center: Council of State Governments, 2012). Some of the mentors under the Project have served jail time and successfully reintegrated into the community and are deemed to be role models hence using them to mentor participants is seen as offering participants with real life examples of persons who were just like them and have managed to emancipate themselves from the hands of criminal/antisocial conduct and are living better lives. Cognitive-restructuring is the objective of the Project and it seeks to achieve this through skills development and behavioral change for/of participants (Roca, 2016). Where this Project successfully restructures the cognitive behavior of participants and they acquire skills and get employment, their economic situation will change and this will translate into economic development. According to Roca (2016) the Project runs for four years - the first two years focus on inculcating into participants behavioral change whilst the remaining period focuses on sustaining the positive ch.

Introduction
GDD’s Results
Candidate’s Results
GDD/ Candidates Comparison
Recommendation
Purpose:
In the first assignment, students are given a scenario about Global Delivery Direct (GDD), a Norfolk, England medium-sized global delivery company that was started in 1968 by four college friends. . The purpose of this exercise is to see if you can identify the GDD leader in the potential candidates that will be hired to lead the new boutique services department.
Outcome Met by Completing This Assignment
use leadership theories, assessment tools, and an understanding of the role of ethics, values, and attitudes to evaluate and enhance personal leadership skills
Background:
Andrew Rockfish and the other owners have been looking for a competitive edge in the North American market that will translate well to the other divisions. A recent meeting of the owners resulted in the decision to target business organizations with custom services. The decision stems from recent feedback from customers that revealed that for GDD to anticipate the needs of their clients, suppliers and service vendors, the company needed to decrease the turnaround time in delivery and mailing of small packages and letters. Rockfish has decided to offer “boutique” services to its business customers. Catering to businesses will allow GDD to provide personal services that Fed Ex and UPS cannot offer. Customizing the services will allow GDD to increase prices while creating a new niche in the market. It was decided that the initial roll out of this idea would start in the US where an imminent threat from competition lies. Rockfish was on board with this idea and began a campaign among the rest of the company to find ideas that would help to encourage the new ‘Business First” strategic plan.
In response, a sales manager from the mid-west sales team brought this idea from their brainstorming session for Rockfish’s consideration. The sales manager proposed creating several mobile packing stores to bring customer service to businesses directly. GDD would not just pick up and deliver but they would also package. This model could be viewed as an UPS store on wheels. The team got the idea from a local delivery service that started a similar business as a Mail Store on Wheels and it seemed to be doing well. The mail company has five “Mail on Wheels” trucks and focuses on taking small business, not individuals away from the three local UPS and Kinko stores. After a financial review of the company, Rockfish decided to buy the business.
The mail business was started by a young entrepreneur, Adrian Cheng, who ran the business with the philosophy that “customers always get the best of our time and service”. Personal service, friendliness, and as much time as it takes to make the customer happy, was part of the mission statement. Employees were casually dressed and had no deadlines except those given by the customer. Cheng had about 45 employees and ran both.

Introduction to Public Speaking
Week 6 Assignment
Informative Speech
It’s time to take what you've learned from all of your prior presentations and add an element of research to create your Informative Speech. You have to be cautious when choosing an Informative topic, as it’s easy to confuse the Informative Speech and a Persuasive Speech as the same thing. However an Informative Speech JUST provides information. The most basic informative speech is the kind that teaches us (much in the way the Demonstration Speech taught us) something detailed about a topic with which we are already familiar. For instance, we know George Washington was our first President, but a lot of people don't know much about his life prior to the military or serving in office. That would make for an interesting Informative Speech.
With an informative Speech, you’ll want to establish credibility by referencing and citing your materials. For example: "In the July 13, 2007 edition of the New York Times, John Smith said that George Washington suffered from depression as a young boy." It is critical that you discuss where you found your information in order to maintain your credibility.
A few parameters:
1. Your speech should be 5-10 minutes in length.
2. Feel free to incorporate visual aids. This is not mandatory, but it makes for a better presentation, as we learned last week.
3. Cite a minimum of two different sources for your materials. Do NOT use Wikipedia as a source. Please copy and paste these sources into the ‘comments’ area when submitting or submit as a paper. I will evaluate your sources.
4. Be sure to have a good introduction, a body that contains at least three main points (with appropriate supporting evidence) and a conclusion that appropriately wraps everything up.
As always, you may draft your speech word for word, but be very careful not to simply read from your paper! We want eye contact and emotion! Good luck with this assignment and have fun!

Introduction Illiteracy is the inability to read and write a.docx
Introduction
Illiteracy is the inability to read and write at an adequate level of proficiency that is critical for communication. Illiterate adults are unable to use printed and written information to function in the society so as to achieve one’s goals and also to develop one’s potential.
According to an international nonprofit ProLiteracy in 2003, there are 36 million adults in the United States alone. This potential includes a broad range of information-processing skills that one can use daily in school and at the community as a whole. Adult illiteracy has become a societal problem because illiterate people can never fully utilize writing and reading skills to make use of their fully potential in the world. The thesis statement of adult illiteracy involves reasons why it identified as a societal problem; the solutions proposed to solve this problem and the statistical information of adult literacy as the global societal problem.
Different types of society exist. These types of illiteracy are technological illiteracy, mathematical illiteracy, visual illiteracy, school illiteracy, community illiteracy and personal illiteracy. All these types of illiteracy are caused by various reasons. These reasons are summarized in the following discussion.
Causes of Adult Illiteracy
People are usually mistaken about illiteracy. School illiteracy is overvalued to the extent that many adults have started to believe the act of reading and writing are the only important things in school. It is this type of reasoning that make many adults less interested in wanting to gain more knowledge and see things beyond the negative images. This has become one of the main reasons why adult illiteracy has increased in the world over the last few years.
Another reason for adult illiteracy is the misuse of groups. Some people tend to agree with the argument that can make one believe that he or she is weak as a reader and he or she won’t be able to achieve literacy even after finishing school. This type of thinking lowers someone’s self-esteem and self-confidence meaning that the person will not bother to seek literacy help. People’s reading attitude are influential in literacy behaviors. According to McKenna in 2001, reading attitudes are influenced by factors such as a person’s social experiences with reading, one’s personal experiences, the cultural norms about reading, cultural norms and the learner’s preferences about reading. Attitude is associated with unwillingness to read. Every learning experience that a child has in school will at some point determine how that child will determine to learn. The learners who have had negative experiences in school will come to view school and learning in total as a bad experience that. This disengagement spreads over to adults. An adult learner who has negative perceptions about school would not want to be associated with it. These learners never get interested in educational process because they don’t see it as valuabl.

Air bags are meant to save lives. Now a massive recall shows how they sometimes can turn deadly
Forensic Investigator Sal Fariello, whose job is to deconstruct car crashes, has witnessed a catalog of carnage caused by air bags over the past two decades. In his collection, there is a photo of a woman who has been horribly scarred by an inflating air bag. There's an X-ray of a driver's broken wrists snapped in the "fling zone" of an air bag that mashed both arms from a 10-and-2 position into the car's roof. He can cite numerous drivers who suffered torn aortas or lacerated brain stems, all the result of being "punched" by an air bag inflating at 200 m.p.h. (322 km/h).

This document provides an overview of standards for information security risk management, highlighting challenges in implementing assessments and drivers for adopting standards. It analyzes frameworks including ISO 27001, ISO 27002, ISO 27005, ITIL, COBIT, Risk IT, Basel II, PCI DSS, and OCTAVE. While these frameworks provide guidance, there is no single best solution, and organizations face challenges selecting and properly implementing a framework given their unique needs and resources. The document concludes more research is needed to guide selection of the most appropriate framework.

HIS 101 Research Paper AssignmentAssignmentYour resear
- 1. HIS 101 Research Paper Assignment Assignment Your research paper for this class will be based on a historical figure of your choice. You may pick any person who falls within the scope of the course-that means it must be a figure from the Western world (Europe or the Middle East) who lived between the beginning of recorded history and the mid-18th century. This gives you a wide variety of people to pick from, so pick someone who interests you. (Hint: later people are easier to find sources for) The purpose of this assignment is not only for you to learn about a historical figure and time period in a more in-depth fashion than we will be able to do in class, but also for you to improve your writing skills, research skills, and ability to analyze information and create an argument. While this paper is based on a person, it should NOT be solely the story of their life from birth to death, but should make an argument that focuses on the historical events that affected their lives, and the events that they affected. The purpose of a research paper is to do research on a topic in order to gather evidence which you will use to support the argument that you are making. Think about this like you would a science experiment. Your argument, or thesis, is yours, but you need evidence to convince the reader that your argument is true, and that evidence comes from your sources. For example, if you chose Nicolo Machiavelli as your topic, you
- 2. should spend very little time talking about his early life and career, and more discussing his entry into politics, the changes in his political opinions, how and why he wrote his great work The Prince, and how it affected politics both in his native Italy and across Europe, both in his time and to the present. You should choose something about Machiavelli’s career that you feel you can make an argument about, find evidence that supports that argument, then present it in a concise, well-organized essay. In order to do this, finding good sources is very important! Grading Your final paper will be graded on four major criteria: Thesis: This is the argument of your paper. Does the paper have a strong thesis statement at the beginning? Is the argument addressed throughout the paper? Does the conclusion appropriately address the thesis? Content: Does the paper contain good information? Does it contain all the major events of its’ subject’s life, and does it place these events in the appropriate historical context? Does it demonstrate a clear understanding of the subject’s historical importance? Are the sources used good sources, and are they used well? Did you use appropriate sources (no websites, must have an author and page numbers) and did you use enough in text citations? Style: Is the paper well written? Is it appropriately cited? Is it well organized?
- 3. Mechanics: Does the paper have correct spelling and good grammar? Citations and Plagiarism Please remember that this is a research paper, and all assertions, ideas, and facts that are not general knowledge must be supported by your sources. The fact that World War I happened from 1914-1918 is general knowledge. The fact that the war caused a shift in European society due to the death of most of a generation of young men is not, and must be supported by a citation. Any information that you learned from a book or article MUST BE followed by a citation EVEN IF you are paraphrasing and not actively quoting from that work. This means at MINIMUM two citations per paragraph since you should be conveying these authors’ ideas in your paper, and NOT your own. Please remember that any ideas which are in your paper and are not your own must be cited, or they qualify as plagiarism. This includes ideas from sources in your Works Cited, things your friends told you, or wrote for you, stories that you heard on TV, ideas from Wikipedia, etc, etc. Any evidence of plagiarism in your papers will result in a failing grade and probably in other nasty disciplinary action. Lots of pain and suffering for both of us, so write your own work, please. And do not, I mean do not, turn in a paper that you have written for another course. MLA format requires internal citations in parentheses, consisting of the author’s last name followed by the page number or numbers from which you took the information. Like this (Smith 63). If you are in doubt about the formatting of any part of your
- 4. paper, including citations, stick to the MLA format, which can be acquired in print at any bookstore or online. Some websites have portions of it online for free. Here are a couple of good ones. http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/ http://www.ccc.commnet.edu/mla/format.shtml http://www.mla.org/style http://jerz.setonhill.edu/writing/academic/mla_style.html Requirements Each paper should be 6 to 8 pages in length. That means a minimum of 6 full pages, and a maximum of 8 full pages. It should have an introduction that includes your thesis statement, which is the statement of your argument, and then gives an overview of the argument you will make in your paper. The body of your paper should discuss the evidence that you feel proves your argument. The conclusion should then recap your argument. The paper should be typed, double-spaced, in a normal font such as Times New Roman, Arial, etc, in 12-pt font with one-inch margins. The header at the top of the page should include your name, the class and section, and the date. Your paper should have a title that in some way includes the name of your chosen historical figure. The paper should include page numbers at the top right- hand corner of the page. As discussed above, all facts must be cited within your paper. The last page of the paper should be a
- 5. Works Cited page, where you will list the full citations of each one of your sources in proper MLA fashion. The Works Cited page does not count toward your page total. Papers must be turned in to the Assignment folder on D2L on time. Late papers will be reduced by ten points per day, up to a maximum of twenty points, and failure to turn in a paper in both formats will reduce the grade by ten points.
