Controversial Issues in American Culture Research Paper
Assignment:
Living in a diverse society, we are often trying to balance our personal experience and opinions agai nst a
backdrop of the large communal experience. What we think, feel, and believe can be in sharp contrast
with the people and the society around us. Thus, students need to learn how to research, structure, and
advance their opinions by providing evidence to support them. This assignment will help students
formulate their opinions on a controversial topic in an argumentative essay using evidence from primary
and secondary sources. Though nearly any topic will suffice for the purpose of this paper, all topics must
be open to dispute. Students will need to formulate their opinions on the topic but also concede and
refute the oppositional opinions through counte rarguments. We will use class time to discuss research
methods but the rest of your research will be your responsibility.
Decide On a Topic:
Deciding on a topic that is not too broad, nor too narrow will take some effort . In order to present a
convincing argument, consider the following:
1. Draw on the student’s personal experience. It is important to spend time and energy on a topic
that means something to you. Think about topics they may come up in your chosen career field,
in everyday life, or things that you think should be changed in society , but that there is no easy
answer or resolution.
2. Be sure to “resist binary thinking” (Greene and Lidinsky 88). Make sure that the topic chosen can
support several, if not many, different viewpoints.
3. Synthesize others’ views and find new ways to look at the issues.
4. When researching, read to “discover a writer’s frame” to see how his/her ideas and theories can
benefit your own, or if they can be used in counterarguments.
5. Decide whether the issue an issue of fact, value, or policy? Is it a combination of two or more?
Topics should present a position that has varying perspectives.

WRITING ASSIGNMENT 2
CONTEXUTALIZING A WORK OF ART
This assignment involves putting the work of art you chose for Assignment 1
back into its historical and cultural context. This paper should be
approximately 5-6 pages in length (SEE General Information & Writing
Guidelines on Blackboard for further format instructions).
v GOALS: You are not looking to study the specific work of art you wrote
about for Paper #1 so much as to relate it to its broader cultural context. In
fact, you are not likely to find information directly about the Houston work.
[If you do, be sure you also answer the following bigger questions] This
assignment asks you to discuss the subject and the religious, social, and
political or other cultural context of the work of art you wrote about in
Assignment 1 in order to put it back into that context.
o CRITICAL THINKING: As you do your research and look again at the
work you selected to write about, be sure to define a thesis to guide
you. The thesis could be a question or a particular issue that you want
to find out about in relation to this object. ALSO: Think about the
sources you are using as making an argument, not only as sources
of information. What assumptions might they be making? Do different
sources give different perspectives on the work or its role in its
culture? What do you find compelling or, in contrast, not convincing
based on what you have learned in the course.
v RESEARCH: What does the object tell us about the culture and people
from which it comes?
v TIP: Think of taking the work out of the museum and putting it back into
the world from which it came. INTEGRATE the visual analysis of the
work you did for your first assignment (revised, using feedback from the
grader, and selected to be relevant) into a new paper that explains how
the work of art you chose reflects its original cultural context. DO NOT CUT
AND PASTE your previous paper word for word.
v RESEARCH TIPS & PREPARATION FOR WRITING
LOOK FOR THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION
Ø ID the type of work you wrote about for Assignment 1 and the parts of
its culture to which it relates. Since you are not likely to find many (if
2
any) sources that deal directly with the exact object you are working
on, these will be your starting points for research
Ø TO GUIDE YOUR RESEARCH & WRITING, CONSIDER THE
FOLLOWING QUESTIONS in relation to your work of art:
o What kind of function or purpose might this work have served for its
culture and what did it mean for the people of that culture?
§ Was the work connected to the culture’s religious practices or
beliefs?
§ Is it related to the political structure or to power politics?
§ Is it related to the social structure of the society?
§ Is it connected with specific historical events or circumstances of
the work’s time and place?
§ Be specific about the social, cultural ideas, experiences, or
values the piece reflects
o Investigate the subject .

Research Essay Project
Introduction
Instead of a final exam, you will complete a major research essay project. The research essay project is a mandatory component of the course; you must pass the research essay project to be eligible to pass the course.
The research essay will be based on the following broad topic:
· The role of energy in North American history
Within this broad topic, you will select your own historical case-study subject that addresses the role of energy in North American history. The research essay should be based on both primary and secondary source research. In consultation with your Open Learning Faculty Member, you will choose a case-study subject and submit a proposal for your research essay project.
· Proposal: 5% of final grade
· Research essay: 35% of final grade
Instructions
It will be helpful for you to read through this full set of instructions for the research essay project at the beginning of the course to familiarize yourself with the expectations. Also, it’s not too early to start thinking about a particular subject area of interest that you might want to work on for this project. Be sure to consult with your Open Learning Faculty Member.
Introductory reading
Begin by reading the first chapter of Richard White’s 1995 book, The Organic Machine: The Remaking of the Columbia River. In this book, White analyzes the history of the Columbia River as a system of energy flows between the river, salmon, and the human inhabitants of the Columbia watershed.
This first chapter will provide you with a methodology for framing your own case study on the role of energy in North American history.
As you read this chapter, make notes and answer the following questions:
1. How does White define energy?
2. How widely or narrowly will you define energy in your own essay?
You may also want to share your thoughts and ideas about this reading with your peers through the course’s online “Discussions.”
White, Richard. The Organic Machine: The Remaking of the Columbia River. New York: Hill & Wang, 1995. Chapter One “Knowing Nature through Labor: Energy, Salmon Society on the Columbia” pgs. 3–29.
Choose a historical case-study subject
Because this assignment will be based, in part, on primary source research, you are encouraged to begin by searching for a primary source or set of primary sources on a specific historical case-study subject that addresses the topic of the role of energy in North American history.
Seek out specific case-studies that relate to a particular subject area of interest. For instance, if you are interested in oil and gas development, you might want to write a research essay on an aspect of the history of tar sands mining in northern Alberta. If you are interested in urban environments, you might want to write about nineteenth-century scavengers in a particular city.
Remember to select a case study that explores the environmental history of a given subject. Be sure to consult with your Open Learning Faculty Membe ...

Essay 2: Enter the Conversation
Percentage of Final Grade: 15% or 150 points
Learning Objectives:
·
Students will understand academic writing as a conversation about topics of consequence.
· Students will understand their responsibilities as writers – to accurately cite the work of other writers, to provide their audience with reliable information, and to consider multiple points of view.
· Students will understand academic writing as governed by the conventions of specific discourse communities.
· Students will become more critical readers, learning strategies for previewing, annotating, summarizing analyzing, and critiquing texts.
· Students will acquire informational literacy – the ability to locate and evaluate source material.
· Students will improve their ability to write clear and compelling thesis statements.
· Students will develop the skill of constructive critique, focusing on higher order concerns during peer workshops.
· Students will understand the distinction between revising and editing.
Assignment:
For Essay 2, you will summarize and then respond to
one of the readings from this unit (or the video,
College Inc.). In your essay, you will summarize the reading/video and then respond to it by discussing how your own experiences and knowledge have led you to either agree, disagree, or both agree and disagree with the author
and by including the opinions of third parties (i.e., by incorporating secondary sources), which is discussed in more detail below.
Most of the readings can be found in your textbook. However, I also assigned a couple of outside readings and the video,
College, Inc.,
which are posted under Course Content.
In addition to the assigned readings (or the video), you may choose any of the other readings from Chapter 17 in
They Say / I Say. Choose the one that you best understand. Carefully read the example essays that I have posted under Course Content, as they will help you to understand the expectations for the assignment.
Essay 2 is similar to the previous essay, with two additions:
1. Rather than responding to the selected reading/video with your own opinion only, you will add other people’s voices to the conversation by including two secondary sources (i.e., in addition to the selected reading/video). You will use quotes both from the selected reading/video and from your secondary sources to support your assertions.
Your secondary sources can be another reading from this unit. For example, in “Two Years Are Better Than Four,” Liz Addison is responding to Rick Perlstein’s argument in “What’s the Matter with College?” Therefore, you might choose to discuss their opposing views. Instead, you might choose articles you find through one of the library databases, an article in another textbook, a radio show, a podcast, or a video. You are not required to use scholarly sourc.

Assignment: This is the birth of your major project for this semester. To begin, you will do a little digging. Consider what about this period is of particular interest to you, what do you have questions about when you consider the late 18thC/early 19thC (1790-1820). Now, find an object/artwork around which you can base your line of inquiry. Finally, start investigating sources that will help you along the way.
This assignment includes your bibliography, including at least 4 preliminary sources (1 of which must be a primary source) as well as a short abstract introducing your proposed project. This must introduce your object and may ask the questions you are looking to unpack.
ALSO - indicate if you will give a
presentation or written essay for Stage 3.
The Specifics:
· Ensure that your name, student number, course number, and word count for your abstract (300-400 words) all appear on the first page.
· Ensure your citations (footnotes and bibliography) are consistent. There is a link to this on BrightSpace.

Regional Poster Guidelines
Description
Throughout the semester, we will discuss a variety of themes surrounding the archaeology of
people’s lives prior to the emergence of sedentary villages and urban centers. While we will
discuss evidence from particular places, it is also useful to survey what is known about the variety
of lifestyles and cultures around the world. Clearly, environmental conditions constrained what
early foragers could do in a particular place to feed and clothe themselves. Yet, evidence also
indicates that foragers developed sophisticated patterns of belief and daily practice, which
suggest they were rarely living “hand to mouth.”
In this assignment, you will summarize the archaeological evidence of past foraging groups in a
particular period and geographic area. In the table below, I provide a series of areas and
approximate time periods that distinguish the archaeology in particular regions. (NOTE! the precise
dates for your area may vary from those below, which are intended only as a general guide.)
Changes in material culture will not necessarily have a single date in your region, as developments
across large geographic areas were not even. And then, of course, in many areas the earliest
evidence for human activities may not be represented by our species, but our ancestors or
phylogenetic cousins.
For the purposes of this assignment, our collective starting point will be the appearance of our
own species, Homo sapiens, on the landscape in each particular area. If you have questions about
any aspect of the assignment, I am available to consult and guide you. Come talk to me either
during office hours or a time we arrange in advance.
We will have two poster sessions week «8» (15/17 Oct) during one of which you will present
your poster to the class. Be prepared to discuss what you found, and answer questions about the
archaeology in your area. You will receive feedback from your classmates—in addition to your
grade—that you can use as you prepare your final project presentation.
Getting started
The first thing to do is choose a region and time period. Consult the table below and identify
your top three preferences. We will choose areas in class. Areas will be available on a first-come
basis, so make sure you’ve identified alternatives in the event your primary choice is taken.
To familiarize yourself with your region and identify good keywords for further research, I
recommend you consult The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Hunters and Gatherers (Lee & Daly 1999)
available electronically through the Library website . I suggest reading the ‘Introduction’ and 1
‘Archaeology’ sections for your particular region. Take note of themes or issues that will help guide
you. A list of relevant publications is included at the end of each section. If you decide one of the
modern foraging groups described in your region is particularly significant for understa.

cohesive essay analyzing and comparing the two sources and reflecting upon what these sources tell us about
the topic at hand and the study of history in general.
Primary Sources provide first-hand accounts of the events, practices, or conditions. In general, these are
documents that were created by the witnesses or first recorders of these events at about the time they
occurred, and include diaries, letters, reports, court decisions, speeches, photographs, newspaper articles, and
creative works – poems, novels, or political cartoons. Primary Sources form the base that supports historians’
reconstructions of the past. To use primary sources with confidence, historians ...

Modern & Contemporary Art / Dr. Harren
Extended Looking/Writing Assignment and Interpretive Research Paper
Overview:
Continuing to focus on the artwork that was the subject of your formal analysis paper, you will conduct
scholarly research to deepen your knowledge of this work of art. You will also return to the museum to
look in a more careful, informed way at your artwork for an extended period of time while recording your
observations. From your research and close observation, you will compose an interpretive research paper.
Part 1: Research
Gather, read, and take notes on at least 5 scholarly sources about your artwork and/or artist that have been
published in print. Your task is to learn as much as possible about your artwork, such as:
• its material constitution (What is it made of? What is its medium?)
• how it was made
• how it fits into the artist’s larger practice
• how it relates to its immediate movement and to the larger art historical period of modernism
• how it relates to modernity, or the social/cultural/economic/political context of its time
• how previous scholars/critics/art historians have interpreted the work (this information is crucial
to forming a thesis for your interpretive research paper)
Good places to look for books and essays include the Architecture and Arts library online catalogue,
course syllabus, textbook bibliographies, Worldcat, JSTOR, ARTbibliographies Modern (ABM), the
Houston Public Library, and the library at the MFAH, which is open to the public. You may also look
beyond scholarly books and articles published by university presses to sources like exhibition catalogues
and art magazines. In your final paper, you may only cite scholarly sources with integrity that have
appeared in print (even if you access them via an online database such as JSTOR). No general-interest
newspaper or magazine articles; no blogs, museum websites, or online magazines or encyclopedias.
Part 2: Extended Looking/Writing Assignment — due Monday, November 6 in hard copy in class
After you have gathered, read, and taken notes on at least 5 pieces of scholarly writing about your artist/
artwork, you will perform an extended looking and writing exercise in front of your artwork at the
museum. Your task is to spend 60 minutes looking at your artwork as an informed viewer and writing
down observations as they come to you. It is ideal to perform the exercise in one sitting, but if necessary
you may take breaks or separate your looking sessions into smaller units of time, as long as they are not
less than 30 minutes each. Make sure you bring a pencil and paper to write with, as ink pens are not
allowed in museum galleries. After your writing session is complete, type up your notes so they are
legible and upload your document to TurnItIn (accessible via Blackboard) by November 6. To prepare for
this exercise, read Jennifer L. Roberts’s short article, “The Power of Patie.

WRIT 1133 FALL 2015
ASSIGNMENT #1 GUIDELINES
INSTRUCTOR: Tor Ehler
THE SYLLABUS DESCRIPTION:
Assignment 1- For this assignment, you will be provided with a choice of several articles. Your job, once you have chosen the material (article), will be twofold:
1.) summarize the main thrust of the piece; identify the type of audience for which the writer(s) had intended the piece, and identify the main rhetorical thrust of the piece while giving salient examples and explanations of your analysis;
2.) Give your best guess at what the central problem of the piece happens to be; place the ideas and intents of the article in its historical / political/ ideological context; you will have to conduct some fairly general research in order to accomplish this task.
The sources you may use for this assignment should be geared toward a general, educated audience (meaning that you may use encyclopedias and handbooks, although it is not advisable to bring in Wikipedia). (5-6 pages, rough draft 50 points; final draft 150 points.)
INTERPRETATION:
1.) In this portion of the essay, you will want to:
· Identify the subject and thesis of the article;
· Give a general summary of the article content;
· Give your best guess at the type of audience the writer had intended to reach / convince;
· Identify what type of rhetorical devices the writer had employed and give examples from the text of those devices being employed (quotes) – This portion is important. Use Ethos, Pathos, Logos as terms within your rhetorical analysis.
2.) In this part, you will want to:
· Identify the larger issue at hand. What is the central problem of this issue ?
· Consider the issue as existing within a historical / political / ideological context;
· This means that you will want to familiarize yourself with the time period during which the piece was written and perhaps with the author of the piece, then give a brief summary of the things that you consider the most pertinent to the issue (even if this means that you have to explain the present to your audience);
· In order to accomplish this, you may consult encyclopedias and other types of reference books / websites;
· Do not use Wikipedia for this assignment, in stead, use the encyclopedias available to you through Penrose library.
Having accomplished all of this, the writing of your essay should go smoothly enough. The organization of the essay can follow closely the bulleted points above, though you may also try to explain the context of the argument presented while outlining the thesis and audience.
You will want to describe your analysis once again in a concluding statement.
Please remember to place emphasis on your analysis and try not to take away from it through the use of scaffolding phrases. Simply state what you have found and what you think it means without detracting attention from the material.
This essay must follow MLA style and cite all of the sources used within the text as well as in a Works Cited section.
ART 1301, Art Appreciation I 1 Course Description P.docx

ART 101:
FORM AND IDEA
MUSEUM ESSAY
All students will be required to visit the Tampa Museum of Art, the St. Petersburg Museum of Fine Arts, the
Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, or the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota. Students will write a minimum
1500 word research paper (approx. 5 pages in length) based on one artwork of their choosing from the
museum to investigate in further detail. The completed paper is due at the beginning of class on the assigned
due date (see course syllabus for deadlines).
This assignment will require students to a thoughtful analysis based on accepted research as well as your own
developed point of view. Completed essays will be sustained thesis-driven interpretations of a single artwork
based on scholarly research (three sources minimum are required).
When selecting your artwork, pick the one that appeals to you and that you want to further examine. (Keep in
mind that you may want to select an object that has already had significant scholarly research within art
history.) A brief visual analysis of the selected artwork will ultimately support your thesis and lend credence to
your research. Meaning, your discussion of the artist’s selection and use of the visual elements and principles
of design should connect to your broader knowledge of style and pictorial culture, as we have discussed them
in class lecture. Your analysis should also move from description to interpretation as it relates to your central
argument – i.e., the particular qualities of the medium (ceramic, sculpture, painting, etc.) and how this relates
to the artist’s content or culture; how the visual elements found in the artwork reflect (or were affected by)
important cultural values found in the society in which it was made; how the work confronts the human
condition or experience of its culture; the expressive significance of formal elements, spatial design, or motifs
and their interaction; or how the artist has used visual elements to communicate a particular
message/experience to his/her viewers.

Medical Imagining Through Healthcare
When we come to think of it, choosing a career is by far one of the most difficult decisions an adult can make. For some, that decision is chosen for them, whether it’s a business that’s being passed down or through the influence of others around them. Up until my senior year of high school, I had no idea what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. That was until I took an anatomy class and a class called Independent Study Mentorship (ISM). In ISM, we were required to find a career of interest and a professional in the field who you would "shadow" once a week for the entire year. I knew I was good at math so the career I chose was accounting. For many reasons, such as finding it quite boring, I quickly realized that this wasn’t the career for me. In my anatomy class, however, I found a passion in the health industry. It was by far the most difficult class I've enrolled in however; it has also been the most exciting class I've ever taken. I remember looking forward to the class, even when studying for exams, as I would challenge myself to get above a 95. Since then, I knew I had found my passion in health. Through several hours of research, the career I am most interested in is Radiology. When I took the Myers Briggs Personality test on the Humanmetrics website (2020), I discovered that my personality type is ENTJ. People with this personality type are known to be driven to turn theories into plans, highly value knowledge, are future-oriented, and usually possess excellent verbal communication skills. People tend to have a lot of anxiety about taking x-rays. I will use my excellent verbal communication skills to put patients at ease about their x-rays. I believe all of my traits make me the perfect candidate for my career choice because they confirm that I am responsible enough to work in the medical field and will be skilled at anticipating the next step. Being organized is very helpful in any career path as well and will only serve to enhance my other qualities. I also believe my last trait of consistency might be the most important; treating everyone with the same level of care is the only way to ensure the best results for everyone who walks through those hospital doors, which ultimately leads to the most lives saved.
Job Responsibilities
A Radiologist is a medical professional who specializes in medical imaging to make a diagnosis. A radiologist main job responsibility is to comprehend and interpret diagnostic imagining which may include; CT scans (Computed tomography), MRI's (Magnetic resonance imaging), and ultrasounds (Career Coach, 2018). The main function of a CT scan is to create a 3-D image through the use of x-rays. An MRI, however, uses magnetic fields to create a more detailed image that show.

AHVS 346C: Visual Culture in Jane Austen’s World
Research Assignment Stage 1
Assignment: This is the birth of your major project for this semester. To begin, you will do a little digging. Consider what about this period is of particular interest to you, what do you have questions about when you consider the late 18thC/early 19thC (1790-1820). Now, find an object/artwork around which you can base your line of inquiry. Finally, start investigating sources that will help you along the way.
This assignment includes your bibliography, including at least 4 preliminary sources (1 of which must be a primary source) as well as a short abstract introducing your proposed project. This must introduce your object and may ask the questions you are looking to unpack.
ALSO - indicate if you will give a
presentation or written essay for Stage 3.
The Specifics:
· Ensure that your name, student number, course number, and word count for your abstract (300-400 words) all appear on the first page.
· Ensure your citations (footnotes and bibliography) are consistent. There is a link to this on BrightSpace.
· This assignment assesses your ability to follow instructions, conduct research, and begin a line of original inquiry. I will be looking for at least 4 different sources.
· Plagiarism
WILL NOTbe tolerated. See your syllabus and the University of Victoria Calendar for details. Understanding what constitutes plagiarism is your responsibility and is vital as it could result in a failing grade or worse.
Due:
October 4, 2022, 2pm You will submit your work via BrightSpace in .pdf, .doc or .docx format. Failure to do this (if I have to chase you up for formatting) will result in a 1% deduction. This is worth 15% of your final grade; please review my lateness policies.

ANTH 312
People Before Cities

Regional Poster Guidelines
Description
Throughout the semester, we will discuss a variety of themes surrounding the archaeology of
people’s lives prior to the emergence of sedentary villages and urban centers. While we will
discuss evidence from particular places, it is also useful to survey what is known about the variety
of lifestyles and cultures around the world. Clearly, environmental conditions constrained what
early foragers could do in a particular place to feed and clothe themselves. Yet, evidence also
indicates that foragers developed sophisticated patterns of belief and daily practice, which
suggest they were rarely living “hand to mouth.”
In this assignment, you will summarize the archaeological evidence of past foraging groups in a
particular period and geographic area. In the table below, I provide a series of areas and
approximate time periods that distinguish the archaeology in particular regions. (NOTE! the precise
dates for your area may vary from those below, which are intended only as a general guide.)
Changes in material culture will not necessarily have a single date in your region, as developments
across large geographic areas were not even. And then, of course, in many areas the earliest
evidence for human activities may not be represented by our species, but our ancestors or
phylogenetic cousins.
For the purposes of this assignment, our collective starting point will be the appearance of our
own species, Homo sapiens, on the landscape in each particular area. If you have questions about
any aspect of the assignment, I am available to consult and guide you. Come talk to me either
during office hours or a time we arrange in advance.
We will have two poster sessions week «8» (15/17 Oct) during one of which you will present
your poster to the class. Be prepared to discuss what you found, and answer questions about the
archaeology in your area. You will receive feedback from your classmates—in addition to your
grade—that you can use as you prepare your final project presentation.
Getting started
The first thing to do is choose a region and time period. Consult the table below and identify
your top three preferences. We will choose areas in class. Areas will be available on a first-come
basis, so make sure you’ve identified alternatives in the event your primary choice is taken.
To familiarize yourself with your region and identify good keywords for further research, I
recommend you consult The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Hunters and Gatherers (Lee & Daly 1999)
available electronically through the Library website . I suggest reading the ‘Introduction’ and 1
‘Archaeology’ sections for your particular region. Take note of themes or issues that will help guide
you. A list of relevant publications is included at the end of each section. If you decide one of the
modern foraging groups described in your region is particularly significant for understa.

cohesive essay analyzing and comparing the two sources and reflecting upon what these sources tell us about
the topic at hand and the study of history in general.
Primary Sources provide first-hand accounts of the events, practices, or conditions. In general, these are
documents that were created by the witnesses or first recorders of these events at about the time they
occurred, and include diaries, letters, reports, court decisions, speeches, photographs, newspaper articles, and
creative works – poems, novels, or political cartoons. Primary Sources form the base that supports historians’
reconstructions of the past. To use primary sources with confidence, historians ...

Extended Looking/Writing Assignment and Interpretive Research Paper
Overview:
Continuing to focus on the artwork that was the subject of your formal analysis paper, you will conduct
scholarly research to deepen your knowledge of this work of art. You will also return to the museum to
look in a more careful, informed way at your artwork for an extended period of time while recording your
observations. From your research and close observation, you will compose an interpretive research paper.
Part 1: Research
Gather, read, and take notes on at least 5 scholarly sources about your artwork and/or artist that have been
published in print. Your task is to learn as much as possible about your artwork, such as:
• its material constitution (What is it made of? What is its medium?)
• how it was made
• how it fits into the artist’s larger practice
• how it relates to its immediate movement and to the larger art historical period of modernism
• how it relates to modernity, or the social/cultural/economic/political context of its time
• how previous scholars/critics/art historians have interpreted the work (this information is crucial
to forming a thesis for your interpretive research paper)
Good places to look for books and essays include the Architecture and Arts library online catalogue,
course syllabus, textbook bibliographies, Worldcat, JSTOR, ARTbibliographies Modern (ABM), the
Houston Public Library, and the library at the MFAH, which is open to the public. You may also look
beyond scholarly books and articles published by university presses to sources like exhibition catalogues
and art magazines. In your final paper, you may only cite scholarly sources with integrity that have
appeared in print (even if you access them via an online database such as JSTOR). No general-interest
newspaper or magazine articles; no blogs, museum websites, or online magazines or encyclopedias.
Part 2: Extended Looking/Writing Assignment — due Monday, November 6 in hard copy in class
After you have gathered, read, and taken notes on at least 5 pieces of scholarly writing about your artist/
artwork, you will perform an extended looking and writing exercise in front of your artwork at the
museum. Your task is to spend 60 minutes looking at your artwork as an informed viewer and writing
down observations as they come to you. It is ideal to perform the exercise in one sitting, but if necessary
you may take breaks or separate your looking sessions into smaller units of time, as long as they are not
less than 30 minutes each. Make sure you bring a pencil and paper to write with, as ink pens are not
allowed in museum galleries. After your writing session is complete, type up your notes so they are
legible and upload your document to TurnItIn (accessible via Blackboard) by November 6. To prepare for
this exercise, read Jennifer L. Roberts’s short article, “The Power of Patie.

WRIT 1133 FALL 2015
ASSIGNMENT #1 GUIDELINES
INSTRUCTOR: Tor Ehler
THE SYLLABUS DESCRIPTION:
Assignment 1- For this assignment, you will be provided with a choice of several articles. Your job, once you have chosen the material (article), will be twofold:
1.) summarize the main thrust of the piece; identify the type of audience for which the writer(s) had intended the piece, and identify the main rhetorical thrust of the piece while giving salient examples and explanations of your analysis;
2.) Give your best guess at what the central problem of the piece happens to be; place the ideas and intents of the article in its historical / political/ ideological context; you will have to conduct some fairly general research in order to accomplish this task.
The sources you may use for this assignment should be geared toward a general, educated audience (meaning that you may use encyclopedias and handbooks, although it is not advisable to bring in Wikipedia). (5-6 pages, rough draft 50 points; final draft 150 points.)
INTERPRETATION:
1.) In this portion of the essay, you will want to:
· Identify the subject and thesis of the article;
· Give a general summary of the article content;
· Give your best guess at the type of audience the writer had intended to reach / convince;
· Identify what type of rhetorical devices the writer had employed and give examples from the text of those devices being employed (quotes) – This portion is important. Use Ethos, Pathos, Logos as terms within your rhetorical analysis.
2.) In this part, you will want to:
· Identify the larger issue at hand. What is the central problem of this issue ?
· Consider the issue as existing within a historical / political / ideological context;
· This means that you will want to familiarize yourself with the time period during which the piece was written and perhaps with the author of the piece, then give a brief summary of the things that you consider the most pertinent to the issue (even if this means that you have to explain the present to your audience);
· In order to accomplish this, you may consult encyclopedias and other types of reference books / websites;
· Do not use Wikipedia for this assignment, in stead, use the encyclopedias available to you through Penrose library.
Having accomplished all of this, the writing of your essay should go smoothly enough. The organization of the essay can follow closely the bulleted points above, though you may also try to explain the context of the argument presented while outlining the thesis and audience.
You will want to describe your analysis once again in a concluding statement.
Please remember to place emphasis on your analysis and try not to take away from it through the use of scaffolding phrases. Simply state what you have found and what you think it means without detracting attention from the material.
This essay must follow MLA style and cite all of the sources used within the text as well as in a Works Cited section.

ART 101:
FORM AND IDEA
MUSEUM ESSAY
All students will be required to visit the Tampa Museum of Art, the St. Petersburg Museum of Fine Arts, the
Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, or the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota. Students will write a minimum
1500 word research paper (approx. 5 pages in length) based on one artwork of their choosing from the
museum to investigate in further detail. The completed paper is due at the beginning of class on the assigned
due date (see course syllabus for deadlines).
This assignment will require students to a thoughtful analysis based on accepted research as well as your own
developed point of view. Completed essays will be sustained thesis-driven interpretations of a single artwork
based on scholarly research (three sources minimum are required).
When selecting your artwork, pick the one that appeals to you and that you want to further examine. (Keep in
mind that you may want to select an object that has already had significant scholarly research within art
history.) A brief visual analysis of the selected artwork will ultimately support your thesis and lend credence to
your research. Meaning, your discussion of the artist’s selection and use of the visual elements and principles
of design should connect to your broader knowledge of style and pictorial culture, as we have discussed them
in class lecture. Your analysis should also move from description to interpretation as it relates to your central
argument – i.e., the particular qualities of the medium (ceramic, sculpture, painting, etc.) and how this relates
to the artist’s content or culture; how the visual elements found in the artwork reflect (or were affected by)
important cultural values found in the society in which it was made; how the work confronts the human
condition or experience of its culture; the expressive significance of formal elements, spatial design, or motifs
and their interaction; or how the artist has used visual elements to communicate a particular
message/experience to his/her viewers.

When we come to think of it, choosing a career is by far one of the most difficult decisions an adult can make. For some, that decision is chosen for them, whether it’s a business that’s being passed down or through the influence of others around them. Up until my senior year of high school, I had no idea what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. That was until I took an anatomy class and a class called Independent Study Mentorship (ISM). In ISM, we were required to find a career of interest and a professional in the field who you would "shadow" once a week for the entire year. I knew I was good at math so the career I chose was accounting. For many reasons, such as finding it quite boring, I quickly realized that this wasn’t the career for me. In my anatomy class, however, I found a passion in the health industry. It was by far the most difficult class I've enrolled in however; it has also been the most exciting class I've ever taken. I remember looking forward to the class, even when studying for exams, as I would challenge myself to get above a 95. Since then, I knew I had found my passion in health. Through several hours of research, the career I am most interested in is Radiology. When I took the Myers Briggs Personality test on the Humanmetrics website (2020), I discovered that my personality type is ENTJ. People with this personality type are known to be driven to turn theories into plans, highly value knowledge, are future-oriented, and usually possess excellent verbal communication skills. People tend to have a lot of anxiety about taking x-rays. I will use my excellent verbal communication skills to put patients at ease about their x-rays. I believe all of my traits make me the perfect candidate for my career choice because they confirm that I am responsible enough to work in the medical field and will be skilled at anticipating the next step. Being organized is very helpful in any career path as well and will only serve to enhance my other qualities. I also believe my last trait of consistency might be the most important; treating everyone with the same level of care is the only way to ensure the best results for everyone who walks through those hospital doors, which ultimately leads to the most lives saved.
Job Responsibilities
A Radiologist is a medical professional who specializes in medical imaging to make a diagnosis. A radiologist main job responsibility is to comprehend and interpret diagnostic imagining which may include; CT scans (Computed tomography), MRI's (Magnetic resonance imaging), and ultrasounds (Career Coach, 2018). The main function of a CT scan is to create a 3-D image through the use of x-rays. An MRI, however, uses magnetic fields to create a more detailed image that show.

Mass Murderers and Serial KillersReview the two case studies out.docx
Mass Murderers and Serial Killers
Review the two case studies outlined below:
Case 1: Mass Murder
Andrea Yates was convicted of drowning her five children and given a sentence of life in prison.
Later, it was found that the sentence of life in prison was based on the inaccurate testimony of a highly respected forensic psychiatrist. Her life sentence was overturned, and she was found guilty by reason of insanity and sent to a mental hospital.
Yates suffered from severe postpartum depression and had been hospitalized for an attempted suicide before she killed her children. Yates was delusional and reported having thoughts that were degrading and persecuting her for her motherhood. She was also having command hallucinations telling her she was a bad mother and her children would grow up to be criminals, so she should save them by drowning them.
Case 2: Serial Killer
In 1980, John Wayne Gacy was found guilty of murdering 33 young men. He picked up some of his victims at a local homosexual bar. Other victims were taken home for "interviews" as prospective employees for his construction business. The remains of 29 victims were found buried under his home while the other four victims had been thrown into the Des Plaines River near Chicago.
Gacy always maintained his innocence throughout the trial and appeals process claiming someone else put the bodies in the crawl space beneath his house. Also known as "The Killer Clown," Gacy used handcuffs and chloroform to subdue his victims, and then he would tie a rope around their necks and slowly twist until he squeezed the life out of them.
Gacy had been married twice and had two children from the first marriage. Both marriages ended in divorce when his wives found items from his victims or were unhappy from a lack of any sexual contact between them. During both marriages and afterwards, Gacy was considered an outstanding member of his community. Gacy was executed on May 10, 1994.
Case 1 (mass murder) and Case 2 (serial murder) can be analyzed and categorized by fitting them into one or more of the theories developed to explain the phenomenon of multiple murder. The theories are developed by experts in the field who study mass and serial murderers.
After reading the two case studies, discuss the following:
What are the similarities and differences between the definitions for serial and mass murder?
What purposes are served by establishing the typologies that apply to a mass murderer? Are they the same purposes that are served by establishing the typology of a serial killer?
Could a serial murderer ever become a mass murderer and vice versa? Why or why not?
Considering the cases described above, which typologies apply to each killer? Explain how you arrived at this conclusion.

Memorandum of Understanding The Norwalk Agreement” .docx
Memorandum of Understanding
“The Norwalk Agreement”
At their joint meeting in Norwalk, Connecticut, USA on September 18, 2002, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board
(IASB) each acknowledged their commitment to the development of high-quality,
compatible accounting standards that could be used for both domestic and cross-border
financial reporting. At that meeting, both the FASB and IASB pledged to use their best
efforts to (a) make their existing financial reporting standards fully compatible as soon as
is practicable and (b) to coordinate their future work programs to ensure that once
achieved, compatibility is maintained.
To achieve compatibility, the FASB and IASB (together, the “Boards”) agree, as a matter
of high priority, to:
a) undertake a short-term project aimed at removing a variety of individual
differences between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRSs, which include International Accounting Standards, IASs);
b) remove other differences between IFRSs and U.S. GAAP that will remain at
January 1, 2005, through coordination of their future work programs; that is,
through the mutual undertaking of discrete, substantial projects which both
Boards would address concurrently;
c) continue progress on the joint projects that they are currently undertaking; and,
d) encourage their respective interpretative bodies to coordinate their activities.
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING – FASB and IASB 2
The Boards agree to commit the necessary resources to complete such a major
undertaking.
The Boards agree to quickly commence deliberating differences identified for resolution in
the short-term project with the objective of achieving compatibility by identifying common,
high-quality solutions. Both Boards also agree to use their best efforts to issue an
exposure draft of proposed changes to U.S. GAAP or IFRSs that reflect common
solutions to some, and perhaps all, of the differences identified for inclusion in the short-
term project during 2003.
As part of the process, the IASB will actively consult with and seek the support of other
national standard setters and will present proposals to standard setters with an official
liaison relationship with the IASB, as soon as is practical.
The Boards note that the intended implementation of IASB’s IFRSs in several jurisdictions
on or before January 1, 2005 require that attention be paid to the timing of the effective
dates of new or amended reporting requirements. The Boards’ proposed strategies will be
implemented with that timing in mind.

CVS Health is considering expanding into China. China represents a large potential market due to its population of 1.38 billion people and growing middle class. While expansion could increase CVS's revenue and global presence by diversifying its portfolio, there are also challenges. CVS must understand Chinese culture, consumer demands, and the economic, political, and social differences between the US and China. It should also modify its retail outlets and strategy to better serve Chinese customers. With adequate research and preparation, expansion into China's favorable business environment could strengthen CVS's competitive position globally. However, government policies and cultural differences may also impede its success.
Meeting or Beating Analyst Expectations in thePost-Scandals .docx
This document summarizes a study that investigates changes in the stock market's reaction to companies meeting or beating analyst expectations, and changes in companies' reliance on earnings management and expectations management, following major accounting scandals in the early 2000s. The study finds that the stock market no longer rewards companies for meeting expectations by small amounts, and rewards are smaller for beating by larger amounts. It also finds companies are less likely to rely on earnings management to meet targets, but more likely to manage expectations downward. Overall, meeting expectations has become a stronger signal of future performance since reliance on earnings management has decreased.

MEMO
Date: SEPTEMBER 29, 2022
To: CITY OF COLUMBUS MAYOR ANDREW GINTHER
From:
SUBJECT: MEMO & SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE COLUMBUS, OHIO POLICE DEPARTMENT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The accompanying SWOT analysis was developed to identify levels of trust in the CPD, considering the high crime rate in Columbus, Ohio and the violence often connected to it. The youth and community interactions are highlighted as strengths and opportunities, whereas public distrust and crime are highlighted as weaknesses and threats, respectively. So, my suggestions for the CPD are to use crisis professionals in nonviolent situations (such mental health and homeless crises) and to give diversity in hiring top priority.
BACKGROUND
Crime in Columbus, Ohio, is so high that "more than 96% of the other municipalities [in Ohio] have a lower crime rate," making it one of the most dangerous cities in the country. Given the police's efforts to increase public safety, some may question the force's current standing. CPD's credibility has been damaged since the outbreak began as a result of the officers' fatally shooting of unarmed African Americans and the use of tear gas and rubber bullets on hundreds of protesters during the Black Lives Matter Movement (Wedd,2020). The U.S. Department of Justice has launched an investigation into the CPD because of these misdeeds, looking into their policies, procedures, and any racial prejudices.
SWOT ANALYSIS
After compiling the foregoing information, I developed the SWOT analysis of the CPD in the bellow attached. With the crime rate always on the rise and the public demanding action from law enforcement, one must wonder: do people still have faith in the Columbus Police Department? It is the goal of the SWOT analysis to shed light on the sources of distrust and the means by which trust can be reestablished in those sources. Youth engagement, fundraising prowess, and departmental effectiveness are all areas in which the CPD excels (Wedd,2020). There is a lot of mistrust in the public, and the reputation of executives and the workers are both falling. They have potential in attracting a more diverse workforce and gaining the trust of young people and communities. An increase in violent crime, public discontent, and reluctance on the part of the public to call the police will pose serious challenges for the Columbus Police Department.
RECOMMENDATIONS
First, in situations where police intervention is unnecessary (such as nonviolent mental health crises, suicide threats, and homeless crises), I advocate for the use of trained crisis experts rather than solely police personnel. specially at this time when public faith in law enforcement is low and crime rates are high, deploying police to areas where they are most needed and appreciated can make communities safer overall. In addition, many people think "police officers and police organizations are incapable of repairing themselves" because of policing's racist origins. Additionally, 73% of.

Metabolic acidosis A decrease in serum HCO3 of less than 24 mEqL.docx
Metabolic acidosis: A decrease in serum HCO3 of less than 24 mEq/L and an increase in the hydrogen ion concentration in the systemic circulation (Burger & Schaller, 2022).
Pathophysiology: This occurs when non-carbonic acid concentrations rise, bicarbonate (base) is lost from extracellular fluid, or the kidneys are unable to replenish it. This can happen suddenly, as in the case of lactic acidosis brought on by inadequate circulation or hypoxemia, or more gradually, as in the case of renal failure (failure to excrete acid) or diabetic ketoacidosis (excess production of keto acids from lack of insulin) (Huether & McCance, 2014).
Clinical manifestations: Alteration in the neurologic, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular systems are signs of metabolic acidosis. Initial symptoms of severe acidosis include lethargy and a headache, which can escalate to a coma. Respiratory compensation is indicated by deep, fast breathing (Kussmaul breaths). It's typical to have anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Extreme acidosis may make it harder for the heart to contract normally and result in potentially fatal dysrhythmias (Huether & McCance, 2014).
Evaluation and treatment: Lab results, symptoms, and medical history are used to make the definitive diagnosis of metabolic acidosis. The results of the laboratory tests will reveal arterial blood pH below 7.35 and bicarbonate concentration below 24 mEq/L. A movement to the right can be seen in the oxyhemoglobin curve. For a buffering solution to be used effectively, the underlying issue must be identified. Administration is necessary to raise the pH to a safe level during severe acidosis (pH 7.1), especially if there is renal failure. Deficits in water and sodium must also be made up (Huether & McCance, 2014).
Metabolic alkalosis: An initial rise in serum bicarbonate, which causes a blood pH increase to >7.45 (Tinawi, 2021).
Pathophysiology: Increased bicarbonate concentration, which is often brought on by an excessive loss of metabolic acids. Prolonged vomiting, stomach suctioning, a high intake of bicarbonate, hyperaldosteronism with hypokalemia, and diuretic medication are all conditions that might lead to metabolic alkalosis (Huether & McCance, 2014).
Clinical Manifestations: Volume loss and electrolyte deficits are linked to several common symptoms including weakness, cramping, and overactive reflexes. Some people may have paresthesias, tetany, and seizures. To maximize carbon dioxide retention, respirations are shallow and sluggish. With severe alkalosis, disorientation and seizures happen. A potential issue is atrial tachycardia. As oxyhemoglobin's dissociation decreases and the likelihood of dysrhythmias rises, the oxyhemoglobin curve shifts to the left (Huether & McCance, 2014).
Evaluation and treatment:A sodium chloride solution is necessary for the treatment of contraction alkalosis or hypochloremic alkalosis. As a result, HCO3 may be expelled as NaHCO3 in the urine .
McDonald’s—The Coffee Spill Heard ’Round the WorldThe McDonald’s.docx
McDonald’s—The Coffee Spill Heard ’Round the World
The McDonald’s coffee spill is the most famous consumer lawsuit in the world. Everyone knows about this case, and the details involved in it continue to be debated in many different venues—classrooms, Web sites, blogs, law schools, and business schools. Regardless, it serves as one of the best platforms in the world for discussing what companies owe their consumer stakeholders and what responsibilities consumers have for their own well-being. Consumers, lawyers, and analysts are still debating the world famous coffee spill case.
Keeping the topic hot was the 2011 documentary film,
Hot Coffee
, which analyzed the famous coffee spill, set the facts straight, and highlighted the ongoing debate about the impact of tort reform on the U.S. judicial system. The film premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival and aired on HBO during June 2011. The film won many awards.
Stella Liebeck
Stella Liebeck and her grandson, Chris Tiano, drove her son, Jim, to the airport 60 miles away in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on the morning of February 27, 1992. Because she had to leave home early, she and Chris missed having breakfast. Upon dropping Jim off at the airport, they proceeded to a McDonald’s drive-through for breakfast. Stella, an active, 79-year-old, retired department-store clerk, ordered a McBreakfast, and Chris parked the car so she could add cream and sugar to her coffee.
What occurred next was the coffee spill that has been heard ‘round the world. A coffee spill, serious burns, a lawsuit, and an eventual settlement made Stella Liebeck (pronounced Lee-beck) the “poster lady” for the bitter tort reform discussions that have dominated the news for more than 20 years. To this day, the issue is still debated, with cases similar to Stella’s continuing to be filed.
Third-Degree Burns
According to Liebeck’s testimony, she tried to get the coffee lid off. She could not find any flat surface in the car, so she put the cup between her knees and tried to get it off that way. As she tugged at the lid, scalding coffee spilled into her lap. Chris jumped from the car and tried to help her. She pulled at her sweatsuit, but the pants absorbed the coffee and held it close to her skin. She was squirming as the 170-degree coffee burned her groin, inner thigh, and buttocks. Third-degree burns were evident as she reached an emergency room. A vascular surgeon determined she had third-degree (full thickness) burns over 6 percent of her body.
Hospitalization
Following the spill, Liebeck spent eight days in the hospital and about three weeks at home recuperating under the care of her daughter, Nancy Tiano. She was then hospitalized again for skin grafts. Liebeck lost 20 pounds during the ordeal and at times was practically immobilized. Another daughter, Judy Allen, recalled that her mother was in tremendous pain both after the accident and during the skin grafts.
According to a

magazine report, Liebeck wro.

Part B: Master Budget
You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare a master budget for the upcoming second quarter. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below.
The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price—$10 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings):
January (actual)
30,000

September (budget)
20,000
May (budget)
95,000
Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month.
Suppliers are paid $3 for a pair of earrings. 40% of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other 60% is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit. Only 30% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 60% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale.

Info about my final project hw is not the final project. Homework
- 1. Info about my final project hw is not the final project. Homework directions start on 3rd page. My Final Project My topic is a travel log about the renaissance. My format will be travel diaries. Final Project: Travel LogPurpose Learners will create a travel journal or log about an imaginary trip they take back in time to a period, region, and culture studied during this course to assess students’ ability to describe the significance of cultural achievements of Western Civilizations.Description Students will create a travel journal about their travels back to one of the cultures or societies studied in the course and write about the sites and events that they visited. The journal can be presented in a digital format such as a website, blog, social media posting series, or storyboard. Important: Travel Logs created using Word or PowerPoint will not be accepted for grading. See media options below.Details 1. Students must choose a minimum of 5 sites or events from a single culture or society. A. Examples of site: monuments, temples, churches, castles, famous marketplaces, battlefields, statues, painters’ workshops, taverns, etc. B. Example of events: gladiator fights, dinner parties, sermons, receptions, parades, religious festivals or ceremonies, marriage ceremonies, etc. 2. Students will use at least 10 sources (5 primary, 5 secondary) to research how the sites were constructed and used by the societies, what events took place at these locations, and the significance of these events and monuments for the culture visited. A. Pay attention to descriptions and images of the monument or
- 2. site B. Be sure to understand the society that site, or event was relevant to C. Consider who might visit such a site. What types of people might the traveler encounter? D. Imagine what sounds, smells, conversations the traveler might overhear. Acceptable Primary and Secondary Sources include but are not limited to: · Primary sources (court records, memoirs/autobiographies, letters, artifacts, etc.) · Print secondary sources · Scholarly journals · Newspaper and other media and video archives · Appropriate history-related websites and databases (not Wikipedia) · Historical documentaries · History textbooks Please contact a NOVA librarian or your instructor if you have questions on locating sources. 3. Students will submit an annotated bibliography in Module 5 4. Descriptions of the 5 sites or events should be at least 300- 500 words for each site or event presented. The descriptions should accurately demonstrate the cultural achievements and significance of the society studied and presented. A. Consider utilizing photos of the site or an event that may have been similar to help illustrate your narrative 5. The student will present their travel narrative and descriptions of location, along with any accompanying images (properly label and cited) on a digital platform of their choice. Here are some options: A. Google sites B. Blogger C. Wix D. Weebly E. WordPress
- 3. F. Tumblr G. TravelDiaries Important: If you choose to create a website, make sure that you make your website publicly accessible or the instructor won’t be able to access it for purposes of grading. Do not make it private or require a password for access. Some website creation sites, such as Wix, require you to “publish” your site before other can view it. (In the case of Wix and likely the others, you need to remember to “publish” after all of your edits, no matter how minor.) Homework Annotated Bibliography in Module 5 Directions Introduction The Annotated Bibliography is part of your final project. Students are to provide annotations for five primary sources and five secondary sources that will then be used in the final project. Sources should be directly related to the final project’s topic. Annotations should be a paragraph (about 100 words). For secondary sources, students should use high-quality scholarly sources, especially scholarly monographs or articles published in peer-reviewed academic journals. Students should avoid using the textbook, encyclopedia articles, or anonymously authored websites. ALL secondary sources, regardless of format (video, websites, articles, etc.) should be credible and authored by experts and professionals in their field of study geared towards an academic or higher education audience. The bibliography should NOT include encyclopedias, textbooks, or websites and videos geared towards K-12 or authored (created and published) by unvetted, non-credible sources. For questions on this please watch the video by Dr. Campbell or ask your instructor. For primary sources, students should be looking for documents
- 4. that were originally written during the time period they are trying to study. While architectural or archaeological remains certainly do qualify as primary sources which can be used by scholars to reconstruct the past, they are problematic for an assignment like this. Written documents from the past should be your focus!What is an Annotated Bibliography? An annotated bibliography is an organized list of sources (like a reference list). It differs from a straightforward bibliography in that each reference is followed by a paragraph length annotation, about 100 words in length.What is the purpose of an Annotated Bibliography? · Provide a literature review on a particular subject · Help to formulate a thesis on a subject · Demonstrate the research you have performed on a particular subject · Provide examples of major sources of information available on a topic · Describe items that other researchers may find of interest on a topicWhat am I required to include in my Annotated Bibliography? For Primary Sources: · Bibliographic information according to Chicago style. · The name and background of the author, if known. · The date the document was originally written, if known. · The author’s purpose in writing the document and its historical context. · Any bias displayed by the author. · The significance of the document (i.e., why should anybody in the present care?). For Secondary Sources: · Bibliographic information according to Chicago style. · The name and scholarly background of the author (education, publications, university appointments, etc.) · The author’s main argument (note, this is not the same thing as a simple description of the subject matter-- what is the author trying to say about this subject?).
- 5. · The specific types of evidence used to support the author’s main argument (are they primary sources? Scholarly secondary works?) · How successful/convincing is the author’s argument?What are some examples of an Annotated Bibliography?
