Intro to Sociology Writing Assignment #2: Detached Observation of Deviant Behavior Due: Monday, April 17th Task: For this assignment, situate yourself in a public area where other people (whom you may or may not know) are present. You are to be a passive observer, sit/stand in this public place and remain removedfrom the action (e.g. you cannot go to a party and drink and watch others). Take time to internalize the setting in which you have placed yourself before becoming an observer. Identify a few aspects of your environment, such as: where you are, how would you describe the population of people around you, and what types of activities are going on around you. After locating individuals (or groups) you think are engaged in deviance, watch for things like- how they are acting, are they interacting with anyone, and the nature of their deviance, has anyone reacted to their behavior, and has anyone sanctioned them for their behavior? Parameters: 1) The paper must be typed and a paper copy must be turned in (I will not accept electronically submitted papers). 2) The paper should be a minimum of 3 pages double-spaced in Times Roman 12 font. 3) Answer the question by using your “voice” as the means for the streams of consciousness to flow fro the reservoir of your knowledge. In other words, free think and let the streams of conscience come forth from the unconscious! 4) This assignment is worth 33.3 points and is due Monday, April 17th. Questions: 1) Briefly describe the situation (where you are, what time is it, it there anyone with you). Further, describe why you chose this particular setting to view deviant behavior. What was it about the setting that made you think deviance may occur there. Describe the subjective(s)- how many there are, gender, approximate age, distinctive dress, tats, etc. 2) Describe the type(s) if behavior that you have observed to be deviant. How would you define this? behavior based upon the 4 distinct definitions if deviance that we discussed in class? 3) What type(s) of deviance would you characterize the behavior that you have observed according to our class discussion of the 6 types of deviance. Explain why the behavior in question fits into the category(ies) you have identified. 4) Did the participant(s) receive any form of sanctioning? If so, what was the sanction and how did it effect the behavior? Regardless of whether or not a sanction was provided, does the behavior in question require formal or informal sanctioning (in your opinion)? Why or why not? Have Fun! .

Perception is the process by which we become aware of objects, events, and people around us through our senses. Our perceptions are influenced by physical, environmental, internal, and learned elements. We actively select certain stimuli to focus on based on various factors and then organize this information using cognitive schemas like prototypes, personal constructs, stereotypes, and scripts. Finally, we interpret the meaning of what we perceive by making attributions about its locus, stability, specificity, and our responsibility. However, our perceptions do not necessarily reflect an ultimate reality and are subject to errors and biases.

Key Assignment
Ethnographic field study:
For this assignment, you will conduct a 1-hour observation on 2 different dates. The observations will be conducted at the same place, on the same day of the week, and at the same time of day, in a diverse setting such as a place of worship, a public high school, a college campus, a political gathering, or a sporting event. Before you conduct your observations, you will write an explanation of your predispositions of how you think people will behave in this setting.
For example, if you were to choose a church for your observations, do you have any foregone conclusions about how the people there will participate in the service, treat each other, treat their children, and treat you? Come up with your own theories, and then test your theory through actively observing (interacting when appropriate) within the context of the setting.
Assignment Guidelines
Address the following in 1,000–1,250 words:
First, select the diverse setting where you will be conducting your observations.
Next, before you conduct your observations, briefly write how you think people will behave in this setting. Be sure to reference any past examples or experiences that you used to formulate your predictions.
Conduct your observations. For each observation, complete the following:
Observe people coming in, mingling, and going out. Write down your observations of who, what, when, and where, and speculate on the why of their behavior.
How do people enter?
How are they dressed?
Whom are they with?
Where do they sit?
How do they react to others?
How do they participate in the gathering?
What are they doing?
When do they respond?
Why do you think they behave the way they do in this setting?
Compare the 2 studies.
Identify any new conclusions and theories you may have developed about the behavior of people in the setting you chose.
How do they differ from your original hypotheses? Explain.
What did you learn in the process?
Be sure to reference all sources using APA style.

Read about Social Groups and Social Control and answer the following questions in 75 to 150 words each -
1. What is social interaction? What are the elements of social structures? How does this apply to the activity you just completed?
2. What are the functions of social institutions? How do you see this applied in your life?
3. What influence does mass media have? Frame your answer using sociological perspectives.
4. What is social control? How is social control enforced? What are the different sociological perspectives on deviance?
For the below- answer the following questions 50 +
words each:
1. Deviant behavior violates standards and expectations of a group social norm. Reflect on a time when you violated a widely shared and understood norm of your society. What was the norm? What was the violation? What sanctions did your social group place on you for your behavior?
2. Deviant behavior often varies in its degree of seriousness. It may range from mild transgressions of folkways, to more serious infringements of mores to quite serious violations of the law. When sociologist study deviance, they do not "judge certain kinds of behavior or people as being "good" or "bad." Instead they attempt to determine what types of behavior are defined as deviant, who does the defining, and how and why people become deviants, and how society deals with the deviants.
3. It is not at all unusual to think of deviance as being associated with bad behavior. So far each of you have done a really good job discussing deviance. How a society defines deviance, who is branded deviant, and what people decide to do about deviance all have to do with the way society is organized. Gradually, in our society people have begun to recognize that deviance is much more than a matter of choice. There has been a lot of focus on negative deviance; however not all deviance is negative.Can you think of examples of positive deviance?
4. Let's consider the Stanford Prison experiment, if you had been a guard, do you think you would have been more likely to go along with the other guards or would you have resisted or spoken up about treating the prisoners the way you would have wanted to be treated if the roles had been reversed? Explain.
5. "An open mind allows us to be curious, to be receptive to new ideas, to build relationships with people very different from us, and to learn about unfamiliar cultures. Self-awareness is about becoming aware of one's own "cultural baggage": our assumptions, our preferred way of communicating, as well as an awareness about how our preferred way of doing things may be perceived by others" (Öhler, 2012). Öhler also states that there are four requirements for tapping into the benefits of cultural diversity in the workplace. What can we do as individuals in the workplace to help develop the workplace culture?

Observation Research Reading
Observational research involves watching people in their natural environments and recording their behaviors without interfering. There are two main types of observational research - direct observation, where subjects know they are being watched, and unobtrusive observation, where subjects are unaware. Direct observation can involve continuously monitoring subjects or recording how they allocate their time, while risks include subjects changing their natural behaviors due to awareness. Unobtrusive observation poses ethical issues around informed consent but can provide insights into behaviors not uncovered through other methods like surveys. Researchers must carefully consider guidelines around objectivity, specificity, and ethics when conducting observational research.

Article 1:
Question:
Students are to observe two or more adults unknown to the observer. The student must not be able to hear the subjects being observed and those being observed must not be wearing a uniform of any kind as this would provide information about their occupation to the observer. Students must describe the environment and the people being observed, i.e., age, gender, dress, etc. Discuss the nonverbal communication, i.e. eye contact, body position and any other nonverbal behavior. Provide your interpretation of the relationship between those being observed. Be very discrete and do not have a conversation with those being observed.
Answer:
The correspondence in today's age is completely lost its way and there is no place for genuine connections. The connections have been supplanted with the mechanical existence where each correspondence is being done through electronic gadgets. There isn't much holding inside the kids and the guardians moreover. Gone are where individuals used to tend to each other which use.

This document provides an overview of personality types and communication styles. It begins with an introduction to the Myers-Briggs personality assessment and describes the four scales used to determine one's personality type. It then explores the concepts of introversion vs extraversion, sensing vs intuition, thinking vs feeling, and judging vs perceiving. The four temperaments - Traditionalist, Experiencer, Idealist, and Conceptualizer - are aligned with the 16 Myers-Briggs types. The document concludes with an in-depth look at introversion and extraversion.

Designing
a
system
to
help
people
brand
their
personal
identity
Who are you? A cool-as designer, a surfer dude, a sports star, a coder, a book-loving
geek? Who am I? An intellectual, an existentialist writer, a dancer?
Throughout our lives we express our personal identity in many different ways.
Sometimes this is through direct interaction with people, but more and more we
present ourselves online via digital media. We tweet how we feel about that person
who ‘stole our’ car park from us, post our dream holiday destination on Facebook,
compose songs, design invitations, manipulate photos – all using digital software.
Some of this expression results in permanent artefacts – photos, recorded music –
other things are more temporary – phone conversations with friends, live music.
Your task, this semester, is to design a system that will help people to brand their
personal identity. Phase I of this project involves understanding how people currently
deal with their personal expression. The aim of the activities in this phase of the
project is for you to immerse yourself in the real-world context and issues involved in
producing, managing, and sharing expression of personal identity, both online and in
the real world/offline.
You can interpret ‘expression of personal identity’ very broadly. Some things you
consider might be active presentations of an artistic nature such as music, art or
writing. Other aspects of personal identity might be happening more subconsciously
such as the choice what food to eat, what sports to play or which friends to have;
people might not perceive this as expression of their personal identity, nevertheless it
forms a big part of it.
This understanding of context should be deep enough to prepare you to perform a
detailed design of a system to support people in producing, managing and expressing
their personal identity; the system should enable users to ‘brand their personal
identity’. You will create and evaluate this design in Phase II. In Phase III, you will
implement and evaluate a proof-of-concept prototype of the Phase II design.
Phase I consists of 5 steps. There are deliverables associated with each of these steps.
Step
1:
Self-‐observation
and
self-‐interview:
how
do
you
express
your
own
identity?
In this step, you will analyse your own behaviour in expressing your personal
identity: the strategies, applications, and resources that you use. Note that you might,
or might not, have previously thought of yourself as expressing or branding your
personal identity; here, we’re defining personal id.

The document discusses perception processes and how individuals organize and interpret sensory information. It defines perception and outlines the perceptual process model involving environmental stimuli, receiving stimuli through the senses, and perceptual selectivity. It discusses factors like personality, motivation, experience, stimulus intensity, contrast that influence how stimuli are selected. The document also covers perceptual organization principles of figure-ground, closure, continuity, proximity and similarity. It discusses social perception and factors influencing how people perceive others. It introduces attribution theory and types of attributions like dispositional and situational. It outlines Kelley's theory of causal attribution focusing on consensus, consistency and distinctiveness. It concludes with attributional biases like the fundamental attribution error and self-serving bias.

Textbook: Chapter 5, 6
Minimum of 1 outside scholarly source (in addition to the textbook)
Initial Post Instructions
Social psychologist Irving Janis coined the term
groupthink
to describe how people often respond differently in a group context than they might if they were alone. Another interesting topic of sociological study is the area of
deviance
and social control. The textbook provides multiples examples from history where groupthink may have influenced people to participate in socially deviant behavior that they might have otherwise avoided.
For the initial post, respond to one of the following options, and label the beginning of your post indicating either Option 1 or Option 2:
Option 1:
Share an example from your personal experience (of your own or of someone you know), or an example from history, where groupthink may have influenced people to behave or arrive at a decision in a way that many individual members privately might have avoided or thoughts unwise.
Option 2:
Choose a form of deviance with which you are familiar (not necessarily something you have done, but something someone you know did). Examine why society views that behavior as deviant and whether perceptions of that behavior have changed over time. Determine and explain which theory of deviance you think works best for understanding the deviant behavior you have chosen to discuss. Remember to be respectful in light of potentially sensitive topics, and consider what you might be disclosing, as there is no guarantee of privacy.

121chapter32014
The document discusses human perception and communication from multiple perspectives. It begins by looking at how the burning down of a barn can be interpreted as both a tragedy and as gaining a new perspective by now being able to see the moon. Another interpretation is that the barn was hiding something valuable from view.
The document then discusses how perception is influenced by physical, environmental, and learned factors. It also examines the cognitive processes involved in perception, including selection of stimuli, organization of sensory inputs using schemas like prototypes and scripts, and interpretation which involves making meaning and attributing causes through lenses of locus, stability, specificity and responsibility. Communication is shaped by individual perceptions.
Effective thinking
These three sentences summarize the key points about thinking styles from the document:
Thinking can take many forms like fantasizing, daydreaming, reasoning and problem solving. People acquire thinking styles through socialization but styles can also be taught. Sternberg identified different thinking styles including legislative, executive and judicial styles that help people perform different functions.
Review for Eng 4C Exam
This document provides a review for an Eng 4C exam, covering four main topics:
1. Learning literacy and the research process, including learning styles, goals reflection, and the four steps of research.
2. College-level writing, focusing on memos and short investigative reports. Examples are provided.
3. Non-fiction genres like biography, creative non-fiction, and news articles. Characteristics and examples of each are discussed.
4. An assignment analyzing an article about the power of drugs, including autobiographical examples and factual inaccuracies. Reflection questions relate to the article's point and missing scholarly elements.
Chapter 3 business psychology
This document provides an overview of personality, including key definitions and concepts. It discusses aspects of personality such as physical, mental, emotional, social, moral and spiritual. It also covers determinants of personality like heredity and environment. The psychoanalytic approach and structures of personality like the id, ego and superego are defined. Different personality types A through D are described. The document aims to introduce important concepts regarding personality.
Mismatched: What's Wrong With the Way We Recognize Patterns
Every day we are overwhelmed with a barrage of information in the world around us. To make sense of this onslaught of data, we look for patterns, and we make decisions every moment based on the patterns we recognize.
Of course, that skill saves us an enormous amount of time and energy and really helps us make sense of the world, organizing and packaging it, as tidily as possible. But what can go wrong with the way we identify these patterns? What impact does forcing everything into a pattern have upon us a human beings? More specifically, too, how can imposing patterns upon user experiences actually undermine their efficacy - unless they're designed in a careful, thoughtful way?
1 intro aggression
This document provides an introduction to aggression for an A2 Psychology class. It defines aggression as behavior intended to harm another physically or psychologically. Students will learn about different psychological approaches to explaining aggression, including psychodynamic, biological, behavioral, and cognitive perspectives. They will apply these approaches to explain the 2011 London riots and evaluate the strengths and limitations of each explanation. As homework, students are asked to watch a YouTube video on Albert Bandura's Bobo doll experiment and answer questions about social learning theory and how it differs from operant conditioning.

This document discusses personality types and the Myers-Briggs personality test. It defines personality as the characteristics that distinguish individuals. The Myers-Briggs test categorizes personalities into four dimensions with two options on each dimension, resulting in 16 possible personality types. The document provides descriptions of the four dimensions and the characteristics associated with each personality type.
D17-EWRT 211
This document provides an agenda and instructions for an in-class essay assignment. Students will write a 5 paragraph essay identifying and explaining both a marginalization and privilege they have experienced personally. They will use specific examples from their own lives and discuss how they have responded to these experiences. The introduction will define marginalization and privilege and state the writer's thesis. Body paragraphs will provide examples of marginalization, privilege, and how the writer has responded.

1) Social influence is the ways that external social factors alter our behavior, such as conformity to majority influence through peer pressure or fashion trends. Conformity can occur publicly or privately.
2) Early experiments by Sherif and Jenness showed that individuals will change their estimates to match the group when presented with ambiguous situations where there is no clear answer. This occurs through informational influence, where people look to the group for information.
3) Conformity can also occur through normative influence, where people conform to fit in with the group and follow social norms rather than analyzing the situation. This leads to compliance without changing private attitudes.

Understanding Interpersonal Perception (1 of 5)
3.1 Define perception, and explain the three stages of interpersonal perception.
Defining PerceptionYour perceptions of people go beyond simple interpretations of sensory information.
Interpersonal perception
Passive perception
Active perception
Perception: the process of experiencing the world and making sense out of what you experience
Interpersonal perception: process of selecting, organizing, and interpreting your observations of other people
Passive perception: perception that occurs without conscious effort, simply in response to one’s surroundings
Active perception: perception that occurs because you seek out specific information through intentional observation and questioning

We thin slice.
Selective perception: process of seeing, hearing, or making sense of the world around us based on factors as our personality, beliefs, attitudes, hopes, fears, and culture, as well as what we like and don’t like
Selective attention: process of focusing on specific stimuli, locking on to somethings in the environment and ignoring others
Selective exposure: tendency to put ourselves in situations that reinforce our attitudes, beliefs, values, or behaviors
Selective recall: process that occurs when we remember things we want to remember and forget or repress things that are unpleasant, uncomfortable, or unimportant to us
Thin-slicing: observing a small sample of someone’s behavior and then making a generalization about what the person is like, based on the sample

Lombosoro theory.In week 4, you learned about the importance.docx
Lombosoro theory.
In week 4, you learned about the importance of theory, the various theoretical perspectives and the ways in which theory help guide research in regards to crime and criminal behavior.
To put this assignment into context, I want you to think about how Lombroso thought one could identify a criminal. He said that criminals had similar facial features. If that was the case you would be able to look at someone and know if they were a criminal! Social theories infer that perhaps it is the social structures around us that encourage criminality. Look around your city- what structures do you think may match up to something you have learned about this week in terms of theory? These are just two small examples to put this assignment into context for you. The idea is to learn about the theories, then critically think about how can one "show" the theory without providing written explanation for their chosen image.
Directions: With the readings week 4 in mind, please do the following:
1. Choose a theoretical perspective (I.e., biological, psychological sociological)
2. Look through media images (this can be cartoons, magazines, newspapers, internet stories, etc...) and select 10 images that you think depict your chosen theory without written explanation.
3. Provide a one paragraph statement of your theory, what kinds of behavior it explains and how it is depicted through images. Be sure to use resources to support your answer.
4. You will copy and paste your images into a word document, along with your paragraph. You do not need to cite where you got your images, but you do need to cite any information you have in number 3.
Format Directions:
Typed, 12 point font, double spaced

Bradford mvsu fall 2012 deviance and crime
1. Deviance refers to any act that violates the norms of a particular group. Norms vary across societies and over time, and within societies in different subgroups.
2. Early sociological theories of deviance from Durkheim suggested that as societies become more complex with less agreement on norms, deviance like suicide is more likely. Merton's theory of anomie proposed that a disconnect between cultural goals and legitimate means to achieve them can lead to deviant responses.
3. Labeling theory posits that the societal reaction to and labeling of deviant acts, rather than just the acts themselves, can lead to secondary deviance as individuals conform to the assigned labels.
Personality type for entrepreneurs course | PeopleXcell
This document provides an overview of Carl Jung's theory of personality types and how it can help entrepreneurs. It discusses the four dichotomies that make up Jung's theory - extraversion vs introversion, sensing vs intuition, thinking vs feeling, and judging vs perceiving. The document encourages readers to take a personality type test and learn about their own type. It then provides brief descriptions of each of the 16 possible personality types and how the types interact and make decisions differently. The goal is to help entrepreneurs understand themselves and others better through knowledge of personality types.
Culture2
The document introduces positivism and interpretivism as two approaches in sociological theory. Positivists believe that society controls individuals and should be studied scientifically using large samples, while interpretivists believe individuals control society and should be studied using small samples and in-depth interviews focusing on social action. The document provides examples of how each approach might differ in explaining socialization and criminal behavior.

Assignment: Agenda Comparison Grid and Fact Sheet or Talking Points Brief
It may seem to you that healthcare has been a national topic of debate among political leaders for as long as you can remember.
Healthcare has been a policy item and a topic of debate not only in recent times but as far back as the administration of the second U.S. president, John Adams. In 1798, Adams signed legislation requiring that 20 cents per month of a sailor’s paycheck be set aside for covering their medical bills. This represented the first major piece of U.S. healthcare legislation, and the topic of healthcare has been woven into presidential agendas and political debate ever since.
As a healthcare professional, you may be called upon to provide expertise, guidance and/or opinions on healthcare matters as they are debated for inclusion into new policy. You may also be involved in planning new organizational policy and responses to changes in legislation. For all of these reasons you should be prepared to speak to national healthcare issues making the news.
In this Assignment, you will analyze recent presidential healthcare agendas. You also will prepare a fact sheet to communicate the importance of a healthcare issue and the impact on this issue of recent or proposed policy.

Initial Post Instructions
Social psychologist Irving Janis coined the term
groupthink
to describe how people often respond differently in a group context than they might if they were alone. Another interesting topic of sociological study is the area of
deviance
and social control. The textbook provides multiples examples from history where groupthink may have influenced people to participate in socially deviant behavior that they might have otherwise avoided.
For the initial post, respond to one of the following options, and label the beginning of your post indicating either Option 1 or Option 2:
Option 1:
Share an example from your personal experience (of your own or of someone you know), or an example from history, where groupthink may have influenced people to behave or arrive at a decision in a way that many individual members privately might have avoided or thoughts unwise.
Option 2:
Choose a form of deviance with which you are familiar (not necessarily something you have done, but something someone you know did). Examine why society views that behavior as deviant and whether perceptions of that behavior have changed over time. Determine and explain which theory of deviance you think works best for understanding the deviant behavior you have chosen to discuss. Remember to be respectful in light of potentially sensitive topics, and consider what you might be disclosing, as there is no guarantee of privacy.

The document discusses human perception and communication from multiple perspectives. It begins by looking at how the burning down of a barn can be interpreted as both a tragedy and as gaining a new perspective by now being able to see the moon. Another interpretation is that the barn was hiding something valuable from view.
The document then discusses how perception is influenced by physical, environmental, and learned factors. It also examines the cognitive processes involved in perception, including selection of stimuli, organization of sensory inputs using schemas like prototypes and scripts, and interpretation which involves making meaning and attributing causes through lenses of locus, stability, specificity and responsibility. Communication is shaped by individual perceptions.
Effective thinking
These three sentences summarize the key points about thinking styles from the document:
Thinking can take many forms like fantasizing, daydreaming, reasoning and problem solving. People acquire thinking styles through socialization but styles can also be taught. Sternberg identified different thinking styles including legislative, executive and judicial styles that help people perform different functions.

Mismatched: What's Wrong With the Way We Recognize Patterns
Every day we are overwhelmed with a barrage of information in the world around us. To make sense of this onslaught of data, we look for patterns, and we make decisions every moment based on the patterns we recognize.
Of course, that skill saves us an enormous amount of time and energy and really helps us make sense of the world, organizing and packaging it, as tidily as possible. But what can go wrong with the way we identify these patterns? What impact does forcing everything into a pattern have upon us a human beings? More specifically, too, how can imposing patterns upon user experiences actually undermine their efficacy - unless they're designed in a careful, thoughtful way?

Per Fennelly (2017-182), “Why do Employees steal?” employee stealing is a multiple part operation.
Most organizations are often intolerant and impatient to verify employee’s identity and background and establish trust due to the time-consuming nature of daily assignments.
Most organizations often ignore to establish and adopt on-board ecological waste management action plans to deal with discarded materials, shredded left-over documents and magnetic media and placing fragments in isolated location.
Nonetheless, organizations must learn to support and train employers who are assigned to work and protect the organization data center, facilities and resources. Large segments of any organizations’ facility managers are often none-aggressive and choose short cuts in discharging assigned services by posting passwords on the screen and leaving confidential documents lying out on the table and uploading same document to associates, husbands, loved ones and competitors. Most authorized users within the organization are often the puniest linkage in any security operation.
Per Fennelly (2017-182), “Why do Employees steal?”
employee stealing is a multiple part operation.
Disgruntled employees can install sniffers on organizations’ data file server via polite phone calls
They can gain required user identification and password to access the organization’s secured data center.
Most organization retain an employee on the same salary for twenty years and they pay new a newly hired employee the salary of the actively existing employee.

Assignment For Paper #2, you will pick two poems on a similar th.docx
Assignment:
For Paper #2, you will pick two poems on a similar theme to
compare and contrast
. Your paper will explain how the poems use some of the poetic devices we’ve been discussing to express distinct attitudes towards their common subject. It will point out the
similarities and differences
in the ways the two poems do
this
. Therefore, you will need to compare and contrast the general tones of the poems as well as how they use poetic devices to create those tones. Poetic devices you might want to consider include diction, imagery, figurative language, sound (including rhyme, alliteration, assonance, rhythm, and meter), and form.
Your
audience
for this paper is other students in the class who have read these poems. You can assume that your reader has the poems in front of him or her, so you don’t need to quote the whole poem, though a brief paraphrase might be useful. You will need to quote specific lines, phrases, or words in order to point out specific features of the poems. Your
purpose
is to help your reader see the
differences and similarities
in the two poems and, consequently, to better understand how each one works to create its particular effects or meanings.
Your paper should be
800 – 1000 words long, typed and double-spaced, with 1” margins all around
.
Use of secondary sources (other than our own textbook) is not allowed
for this assignment. If you have questions about the poem, ask other students or the instructor.

suggested topics
:
1. Compare and contrast the ways Whitman’s “To a Locomotive in
Winter
” (p. 504) and Dickinson’s “I like to see it lap the Miles” (p. 504-05) represent their common subject: a locomotive. What claims does each poem make about the locomotive? What tone or attitude is taken towards the locomotive? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?
2. Compare and contrast the ways Lovelace’s “To
Lucasta
” (p. 521) and Owens’ “
Dulce
et
Decorum
Est
” (p. 521-22) represent their common subject: war. What claims does each poem make about war? What tone or attitude is taken towards war? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?
3. Compare and contrast the ways
any two
love poems in our reading represent their common subject. What claims does each poem make about love? What tone or attitude is taken towards love? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone? (Please check the two poems you pick with the instructor before proceeding.)

any two
of the following poems represent God:
·
Donne’s “Batter my Heart, Three-
Personed
God” (p. 531),
·
Hopkins’ “God’s Grandeur” (p. 624),
·

Your objects need to date between 400 CE and 1300 CE—the time span that encompasses the Early Middle Ages, Romanesque, and Gothic periods.
You are going to create a travel journal and itinerary for other students who will travel with you to your points of interest. Create a PowerPoint presentation of seven slides, including an introduction, your five destinations, and a conclusion. On each slide, include the image of the artwork or architecture, and the following information about the image:

Web 2.0 is currently changing what it means to be an information literate person or community…. The erosion did not begin with Web 2.0 but had started considerably earlier and became evident with the first web document without an identifiable author or indication of origin. Generally, this erosion comes naturally with the advancement towards electronic environments. In the era of print culture the information context was based on textual permanence, unity and identifiable authorship, and was therefore stable. The appearance of Web 1.0 has already undermined .

Assignment NameUnit 2 Discussion BoardDeliverable Length150-.docx
Assignment Name:
Unit 2 Discussion Board
Deliverable Length:
150-500 words (not including references) 2 Peer Responses
Details:
The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.
At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.
The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.
A. Questions for weekly discussions and conversations (not part of the required Discussion Board assignment)
These questions can serve as the starting point for your discussions during the week. They are “thought starters,” so that you can explore some ideas associated with the discussion board and unit topics. Answers are not required, and should not be submitted with your required assignment. Answers are not graded.
1. What images do we use today that originated from creations by early civilizations for religious ceremonies?
2. What historical art images do we use today, from creations by early civilizations, for cultural celebrations?

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.

Intro to SociologyWriting Assignment #2 Detached Observation of.docx
- 1. Intro to Sociology Writing Assignment #2: Detached Observation of Deviant Behavior Due: Monday, April 17th Task: For this assignment, situate yourself in a public area where other people (whom you may or may not know) are present. You are to be a passive observer, sit/stand in this public place and remain removedfrom the action (e.g. you cannot go to a party and drink and watch others). Take time to internalize the setting in which you have placed yourself before becoming an observer. Identify a few aspects of your environment, such as: where you are, how would you describe the population of people around you, and what types of activities are going on around you. After locating individuals (or groups) you think are engaged in deviance, watch for things like- how they are acting, are they interacting with anyone, and the nature of their deviance, has anyone reacted to their behavior, and has anyone sanctioned them for their behavior? Parameters: 1) The paper must be typed and a paper copy must be turned in (I will not accept electronically submitted papers). 2) The paper should be a minimum of 3 pages double-spaced in Times Roman 12 font. 3) Answer the question by using your “voice” as the means for the streams of consciousness to flow fro the reservoir of your knowledge. In other words, free think and let the streams of conscience come forth from the unconscious! 4) This assignment is worth 33.3 points and is due Monday,
- 2. April 17th. Questions: 1) Briefly describe the situation (where you are, what time is it, it there anyone with you). Further, describe why you chose this particular setting to view deviant behavior. What was it about the setting that made you think deviance may occur there. Describe the subjective(s)- how many there are, gender, approximate age, distinctive dress, tats, etc. 2) Describe the type(s) if behavior that you have observed to be deviant. How would you define this? behavior based upon the 4 distinct definitions if deviance that we discussed in class? 3) What type(s) of deviance would you characterize the behavior that you have observed according to our class discussion of the 6 types of deviance. Explain why the behavior in question fits into the category(ies) you have identified. 4) Did the participant(s) receive any form of sanctioning? If so, what was the sanction and how did it effect the behavior? Regardless of whether or not a sanction was provided, does the behavior in question require formal or informal sanctioning (in your opinion)? Why or why not? Have Fun!
