Topic:
This Land is My Land
Focus Question:
Evaluate the impact of the Pequot War on either the Europeans or Natives.
Step 2: In 50 words or more, state why you chose the topic and focus question that you chose. It could be how the topic is of interest to you and that you have studied it previously, or it could be a subject that you want to learn more about something of which you do not have knowledge.
I opted for “This Land is My Land” topic due to my insightful interest to explore historical events related to patriotism and balancing power between Europeans and Natives in situations such as trade negotiations. The trade aspect drove me to be specific on the focus question that need to address the impacts of Pequot War to Europeans and Natives. In this case, the contact of both had profound effect where balance of power shifted overnight from natives to Europeans. My choice is therefore grounded on the enthusiasm to discover more knowledge into this particular aspect.
Step 3: List the two primary source and two secondary sources that you have chosen in the boxes below.
Source Type

Make sure to provide specific examples from each of the four sources that illustrate how they will help you answer your focus question. This will help you begin to think about the form of your paper!
In primary #1 the natives who were the Indians, revolted against the Europeans led by King Phillip which meant the next combinations of Indians to threaten European dominance after
Pequot War
. Primary #2 contribute to this research since
Randolph, sent by King James II, compiled a report to account for the war involving Indians and colonies led by King Phillip.
On the other hand, secondary #1 is relevant to this paper since it analyze military conflicts in 17th-century, warfare practice in Europe; facets of native warfare of Indians and differences between European and native military prowess. Finally, Secondary #2 inputs to my compilation as it addresses how natives of New England were enslaved as it document how Europeans eventually thought of
Pequot War
as the “civilized” English versus the “savage” natives. The colonialists killed and enslaved Pequot women and children.

Roosevelt’s Four Freedoms
The four freedoms formed the basis for the ambitions of the United States of America president, as Franklin D Roosevelt delivered them in December 1941.
In this speech he put forth four basic or essential freedoms that people all over the world were supposed to abide to and enjoy. These freedoms were as follows; freedom of speech, freedom of want, freedom from fear and freedom of worship.
After the end of the First World War, the United States refused to endorse the Versailles treaty and declined to enter the League of Nations, and this was due to the apparent fear of most Americans that meddling into European affairs would bring national unrest and insecurity.
Therefore, the United States adopted a policy of non-interventionism and isolation .To bring this into effect, several acts to maintain neutrality were signed .This led to the of selling of armaments or military assistance to countries participating in war, whereby several vessels were discontinued from service so as to maintain peace. Soon after the onset of the Second World War, Franklin Roosevelt saw it fit to do away with the isolation polices that had been put into place after World War I. The immediate result saw Britain gain immense help from the United States during the World War II as supplies grew exponentially and more troops were committed to helping the Britons advance their military ambitions.
According to documents 3 and 4, the events that occurred in 1941 do not essentially fulfill or follow consistently with the policies Roosevelt had championed. For instance, the discriminatory curfew set up to curtail espionage and boost the war fought between the Japanese.
According to documents 5 and 6, the e ...

in length. Direct quotes do not count toward the required word count.
Part 2 Essay Questions:
1 - Compare Indian society with that of the Europeans. What differences were there? Similarities? Be sure to include in your analysis ideas about religion, land, and gender roles as well as notions of freedom.
2 - The sophistication and diversity of the peoples in the early Americas are remarkable. Explore that diversity in an essay that discusses early Native American culture, architecture, religion, gender relations, economy, and views of freedom.
3 - The Spanish had a long history of conquering in the name of God. From the
reconquista
to the
conquistadores
to the settlement of the New World, Spain justified its conquests as a mission to save the souls of heathens—while putting them to work in subhuman conditions. Explore this paradox of conquering and killing in the name of saving. Remember to think about what else was going on in the world at that time with regard to the Protestant Reformation and the Inquisition.
4 - What was a borderland? Compare the roles the French, Dutch, and Indians played in the borderlands of North America. In the seventeenth century, did any group have an advantage? Explain your answer.
5 - Many degrees of freedom coexisted in seventeenth-century North America. Discuss the various definitions of freedom. Be sure to include slaves, indentured servants, women, Indians, property owners, and Puritans in your discussion. Identify any similarities and differences among these different versions of freedom.
6 - Explain the reasons behind the various conflicts between the English and the Indians. How do differing perceptions of land and liberty fit into the story? How do trade and religion play a part?
7 - John Winthrop distinguished between natural and moral liberty. What was the difference? How did moral liberty work, and how did Puritans define liberty and freedom? Discuss the restrictions of moral liberty and the consequences as illustrated by Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson. Be sure to address Winthrop’s speech in the “Voices of Freedom” box.
8 - Compare the Chesapeake and New England colonies. Explore the various reasons for the colonists’ emigrating to the New World, their economies, gender roles, demographics, religion, and relations with the Indians. How did land ownership compare from one region to the other? Which pattern of settlement is more representative of American development after the seventeenth century?

Roosevelt’s Four Freedoms
The four freedoms formed the basis for the ambitions of the United States of America president, as Franklin D Roosevelt delivered them in December 1941.
In this speech he put forth four basic or essential freedoms that people all over the world were supposed to abide to and enjoy. These freedoms were as follows; freedom of speech, freedom of want, freedom from fear and freedom of worship.
After the end of the First World War, the United States refused to endorse the Versailles treaty and declined to enter the League of Nations, and this was due to the apparent fear of most Americans that meddling into European affairs would bring national unrest and insecurity.
Therefore, the United States adopted a policy of non-interventionism and isolation .To bring this into effect, several acts to maintain neutrality were signed .This led to the of selling of armaments or military assistance to countries participating in war, whereby several vessels were discontinued from service so as to maintain peace. Soon after the onset of the Second World War, Franklin Roosevelt saw it fit to do away with the isolation polices that had been put into place after World War I. The immediate result saw Britain gain immense help from the United States during the World War II as supplies grew exponentially and more troops were committed to helping the Britons advance their military ambitions.
According to documents 3 and 4, the events that occurred in 1941 do not essentially fulfill or follow consistently with the policies Roosevelt had championed. For instance, the discriminatory curfew set up to curtail espionage and boost the war fought between the Japanese.
According to documents 5 and 6, the e ...

Information Technology, Computer Networks and CyberspaceKizza (201.docxwiddowsonerica
Information Technology, Computer Networks and Cyberspace
Kizza (2014) largely treated cyber-attacks as “cybercrime,” conveying the assumption that these attacks are by definition illegitimate and criminal. However, he occasionally seems to recognize that there might be motives that are more ambiguous and may have a social, moral, or political basis. Lessig (2006) also referred to Internet hacker ethic as rebellious and libertarian and not always criminal in a moral sense. One example cited by Kizza (2014) is the Seattle WTO protest and mass computer attacks that are “increasingly being used to avenge what the attackers consider to be injustices” (p. 97).

Information and Knowledge Needs of Nurses in the 21st Century
In the year 2025, nursing practice enabled by technology has created a professional culture of reflection, critical inquiry, and inter-professional collaboration. Examples of current technology that could change in the future include:
Nurses use technology at the point of care in all clinical settings (e.g., primary care, acute care, community, and long-term care) to inform their clinical decisions and effect the best possible outcomes for their clients.
Information is gathered and retrieved via human–technology biometric interfaces including voice, visual, sensory, gustatory, and auditory interfaces, continuously monitoring physiologic parameters for potentially harmful imbalances.
Longitudinal records are maintained for all citizens from their initial prenatal assessment to death; all life-long records are aggregated into the knowledge bases of expert systems. These systems are providing the basis of the artificial intelligence being embedded in emerging technologies.
Smart technologies and invisible computing are ubiquitous in all sectors where care is delivered.
Clients and families are empowered to review and contribute actively to their record of health and wellness.
Invasive diagnostic techniques are obsolete, nanotechnology therapeutics are the norm, and robotics supplement or replace much of the traditional work of all health professions.
Nurses provide expertise to citizens to help them effectively manage their health and wellness life plans, and navigate access to appropriate information and services.
Scholarly writing includes clarity and flow of thoughts. You may want to include headings in your paper to ensure you are meeting all elements of the rubric.

Information Technology, Computer Networks and Cyberspace
Kizza (2014) largely treated cyber-attacks as “cybercrime,” conveying the assumption that these attacks are by definition illegitimate and criminal. However, he occasionally seems to recognize that there might be motives that are more ambiguous and may have a social, moral, or political basis. Lessig (2006) also referred to Internet hacker ethic as rebellious and libertarian and not always criminal in a moral sense. One example cited by Kizza (2014) is the Seattle WTO protest and mass computer attacks that are “increasingly being used to avenge what the attackers consider to be injustices” (p. 97). Another example we discussed was the Stratfor attack. Also, recently we see many examples of cyber security invasions by governments and corporations.
Search the Internet to find an example of a hacking activity or situation that represents a morally, ethically, or criminally ambiguous situation but is different from any examples you used in other assignments for this course.

Information Technology in Public Health
Public health surveillance and prevention efforts in the U.S. reflect the involvement of numerous health care providers and organizations. Government agencies such as the CDC often function as a hub for the collection, coordination, and communication of public health-related data.
Common applications of public health IT to promote and improve the health of populations include (but are not limited to) biosurveillance, disease registries, and immunization tracking. The timely and appropriate implementation of these applications can have a significant impact on the ability of providers to deliver health care to the their patients, which, in turn, can have a profound effect on a community's overall state of health and wellness. Consider the dire impact a SARS outbreak might have, for example, if patient diagnoses were not reported and shared regionally, nationally, and internationally.
Prepare for this Application as follows:
Conduct a literature review of a specific application of health information technology in public health and locate an example in which the application was used to address a public health-related concern. (You might wish to begin by researching a particular surveillance program, disease outbreak, disease registry, prevention program, or other public health-related event, and then identify the technology involved in this activity.)
Find out how this application has impacted the public's health. Learn also about any ways in which health care providers and organizations were involved in the use of this information technology.
Then write a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following:
Describe the specific application you selected and the ways in which it addresses a public health-related concern. Summarize the potential benefits to the public, as well as any possible drawbacks, arising from the use of this application.
Explain the role of hospitals and other health care organizations in contributing to or making use of this public health-related IT application.
Discuss other implications of this application for health care providers and organizations. How has it impacted (or might it impact) clinical or administrative practices in hospitals or other health care institutions? Provide a rationale for your response.

Background:
Dendrobates pumilo
is a poison dart frog with a distributional range from Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. The bright colors from the skin of these frogs are considered to be a warning sign of toxicity to predators. Although
D. pumilo
is one species, there are 10 color polymorphic populations within this range. The warning signs as displayed on
D. pumilo
are favored by natural selection in terms of predator avoidance.
Purpose of the study (what scientists wanted to understand):
1) How visual conspicuousness and toxicity is correlated.
2) Differences between visual backgrounds and predator visual systems on detection of
D.
pumilo
.
Glossary:
Dorsal
: upper side or back
Ventral
: underside
1
Visual background
: Poison dart frogs live on different natural substrates; live dead plant parts,
so this would bring about different visual backgrounds.
Visual systems
: In this study they are referring to how predators “view” D. pumilo. Remember, not all predators will see their prey the same way.
Color polymorphisms
:
alternative phenotypes, and in this case alternative phenotypes of frog skin color.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Information to use for paper:
Step 1: Select your topic and focus question! Read the topics
from the list on page 2 of this document and choose the topic
and focus that interests you. Fill out the box below.
What’s your topic and focus question?
Topic:
This Land is My Land
Focus Question:
Evaluate the impact of the Pequot War on either the Europeans
or Natives.
Step 2: In 50 words or more, state why you chose the topic and
focus question that you chose. It could be how the topic is of
interest to you and that you have studied it previously, or it
could be a subject that you want to learn more about something
of which you do not have knowledge.
I opted for “This Land is My Land” topic due to my insightful
interest to explore historical events related to patriotism and
balancing power between Europeans and Natives in situations
such as trade negotiations. The trade aspect drove me to be
specific on the focus question that need to address the impacts
of Pequot War to Europeans and Natives. In this case, the
contact of both had profound effect where balance of power
shifted overnight from natives to Europeans. My choice is
therefore grounded on the enthusiasm to discover more
knowledge into this particular aspect.

Pequot War
. Primary #2 contribute to this research since
Randolph, sent by King James II, compiled a report to account
for the war involving Indians and colonies led by King Phillip.
On the other hand, secondary #1 is relevant to this paper since
it analyze military conflicts in 17th-century, warfare practice in
Europe; facets of native warfare of Indians and differences
between European and native military prowess. Finally,
Secondary #2 inputs to my compilation as it addresses how
3. natives of New England were enslaved as it document how
Europeans eventually thought of
Pequot War
as the “civilized” English versus the “savage” natives. The
colonialists killed and enslaved Pequot women and children.

examine the damages of the Crown's colonial laws and the
general state of colonial affairs, more so in New England.
In 1637, England sent Edward Randolph to assess the war's
roots and evaluate the damage. According to this author, Puritan
Massachusetts government regarded the Indian assaults as
castigation of their own evils. The notion of godlike punishment
originates from the Old Testament that repeatedly reflects on
conflicts on the olden Israelites as punishment for their sin.
3.
How credible is the author on his/her subject and what are some
potential biases the author may have had?
In the report by Edward Randolph, the local authority in
Massachusetts thrived to Christianize the conflicts that led to
the Indian war. In his opinion, they were just doing this for
personal gain while pretending to punish them for their sins
such as drunkenness.
In his inclination, he noted that English made contributions to
what befell them in the war aftermath, they initially trained the
Indians how to use fire arms. They also made them available in
all their assemblies and preparations, and taught on how to
handle, repair and make their muskets, and they were provided
with all types of weapons by authorization of the government,
this led to Indians becoming outstanding firemen.

List three things in the document that are important to your
topic’s focus.
The main points of interest from this primary source that are
relevant to the impacts of
Pequot
war on Europeans and Natives include the following three;
1.
The Crown's colonial laws that the Indians found intolerable as
the government tried to Christianize them and enforce them
against their will and for their own profit.
2.
Acquisition of firearms by Indians and training of handling the
same. This was one of the main cause of the war since the
Europeans had with great ease, entertained the Indians in
learning their ways.
3.
Peace terms reached upon through Boston Government that
aimed to culminate peace between Indians and Europeans. This
peace agreement concluded that Indians were under English
command but the former could settle in their land without let.
5.
Why do you think the document was written?
As prior indicated, “Edward Randolph’s Report of King Philip’s
War” was written with a primary goal of reporting and
documenting the major conflict events that happened after
Pequot war and determine the causes of that King Philip’s War
that involved Indians and the Englishmen as demanded by King
James II.
Basically, Edward Randolph was an envoy of King James II
government. He was referred to the colonies more so in New
England to probe the violations of the Crown's colonial laws
18. and the general condition of colonial matters that involved wars
and aftermath effects. This endeavors resulted to writing this
document.
6.
How will this source contribute to your paper’s focus?
This source grounds on the topic of “This Land is My Land” as
the entire conflict as reported by the author shows that the
natives, Indians, fought the Europeans to have their right to
freely use their land without regulations such as cultural fashion
and lifestyles. This resulted `to them being allowed to live in
that land without let.
The focus of this topic was the impact of this war to both
groups. The aftermath of Pequot War meant the Natives were to
live under English Command and submit to Crown’s colonial
laws. This made both closely relate despite the Indians
becoming intolerable on the decrees. In the social interactions,
their acquired fire arms and learnt how to use them through the
Europeans which resulted to King Philip’s War.

Introduction
Your introduction should include the following:
·
Background information on the topic of your essay. This
includes introducing key figures or concepts, as well as
providing dates and locations to place your topic in an historical
context.
Do not assume that your reader knows the topic or the sources
that you are using.
Always fully introduce your sources, historical figures, and
topics.
·
A thesis statement. A thesis statement is the argument that you
will be proving in your paper. For example, do not make general
statements such as, "Phillip II and Henry IV had many
similarities and differences." A thesis is a very focused
argument. A better thesis statement would be, "Henry IV and
Phillip II both faced challenges to the stability of their
kingdoms that developed from religious conflicts. While Henry
IV was primarily concerned with domestic unrest, Phillip II
faced these challenges in outlying regions of his kingdom." You
can see that one is much more focused and specific in the points
that it will prove in your essay. The following link provides
some great information and demonstrates how to create a thesis
statement:

information and try to avoid including random facts that, while
interesting, might not connect to, or be relevant to, your
argument.

Historical details and examples. These are the building-blocks
of your argument. You should include relevant dates, events,
people, and examples to prove your thesis.

Conclusion
Your conclusion of your essay should do the following:
·
Draw together the points that you have raised in the essay.
·
23. Connect your points to a larger revelation about the topic that

you to make this connection. For example, if you are writing an
essay on women regents in Ancient Egypt, you would not end
your essay with the statements, “Women have played major
political roles throughout time. The position of female regents
in Ancient Egypt set the stage for women in politics today and
continues to influence our world.” These types of points are
overly general, not really relevant, and do not help to prove
your overall thesis.
