Literacy Narrative Assignment: Your Story About a Discourse/Community A Literacy Narrative is an autobiographical story about your experience/s with literacy, language, and communication. Tell a story about struggling with or feeling empowered by learning how to communicate/become literate in a particular discourse community. Your goal here is to narrate a story that describes vividly your experiences with a particular literacy and to reflect on why and how your experiences were significant. Think of this assignment as a combination of creative storytelling and honest reflection about how a discourse community’s way of communicating has shaped your identity in some important way. I like to tell students to think about a time they were transformed or deeply affected by learning the rules of communication in a particular community. James Gee explains that “Discourses are ways of being in the world, or forms of life which integrate words, acts, values, beliefs, attitudes, social identities, as well as gestures, glances, body positions and clothes. A Discourse is a sort of 'identity kit' which comes complete with the appropriate costume and instructions on how to act, talk, and often write, so as to take on a particular social role that others will recognize.” This means “literacy” isn’t about just reading and writing, but learning about how to work in and contribute to a community. The purpose of this assignment is to (continue to) reflect on some aspect of your history as a writer/reader/language user and how language has shaped your identity, values, beliefs, behavior, or worldview. Your story needs to have a point, a lesson, a “So What?” Was there a lesson learned? What did you learn as you succeeded or failed at the literacy you attempted? How is your story unique (or not unique)? How have you been shaped by a particular language practice? And again, as usual, we will discuss and explore the parameters of this assignment. This genre of writing is more creative, using concrete detail, narration, and story telling. You may pick one specific event you can chronicle a literacy history chronologically, or you can write about several events though one uniting theme. You are encouraged to narrate experiences that take place inside or outside of educational settings. You learn many discourses in your life, all of which shape you important ways. We become literate in many different discourses and communities throughout our lives-- personal, vocational, educational, spiritual, extra curricular, and more. .

Translingualism: Building a more Inclusive Writing Center
This PowerPoint Presentation served as the outline for a workshop regarding inclusivity at the Gonzaga Writing Center which revolved around conversations based on complex ideas such as: the characterizations of language (English in particular), Eurocentric influences, and the role of the Writing Tutor in shaping not only architectural components of writing but individualism, voice, and opinion. This presentation started a greater conversation about the implementation of a solidarity statement.
Writing across the curriculum
This presentation examines the necessity of encouraging writing across the curriculum areas. Writing activities have to be engaging, meaningful and help to develop the writing skills of the audience. These slides examine how and why one should teach writing across the curriculum.
Global education
The words used and our interpretation of images and statistics are an insight into our perspective or bias – our view of the world. Bias influences our attitudes and behaviours towards other people, places and issues. Our experiences, gender, age, class, religion and values all affect our bias. People who are passionate about an issue will generally be quite overt about their bias. People who want to promote a particular point of view may be less overt and more subtle in their use of words and images.
Global education aims to assist students to recognise bias in written and visual texts, consider different points of view and make judgements about how bias can lead to discrimination and inequality.

This paper is based on the two texts Page 611 and Page 615 and necessarily calls for the compare/contrast pattern of development but use other patterns as well.
This paper must address the principal question (top of Page 620): What does happiness mean to you? You must again share your personal views on this topic, and the question calls for your definition of happiness. Your views will dominate the paper with a demonstration of your ability to explore a difficult topic in depth, but you must also integrate quotations from the two texts (Pages 611 and 615). Not only will you compare and contrast the views of these two authors but also compare and contrast them with your own. Include a discussion of the long quotation by Eric Weiner in the prompt pages 619-620.
The prompt paragraph Pages 619-620 makes it clear that you must write about your interpretation of happiness that includes the factors that, for you, contribute greatly to having what you personally define as “a good life.” Do not summarize or reinterpret the two texts. Write a personal opinion paper and use sources in the textbook and outside to illustrate and support your comments. Use examples from personal experience as well.
As in all essays, avoiding the obvious is crucial. Show your critical thinking skills with comments, questions, explorations of aspects of the topic, and ideas that are not self-evident and that you can support with good reasoning and examples. The focus of your reasoning must be personal variations in a definition of “the good life.”

Annette Lareau’s ethnographic study of how middle and working-class .docx
Annette Lareau’s ethnographic study of how middle and working-class families raise their children provides insights into how social class shapes the development of children and youth. Through this assignment, you will think about (1) how childrearing philosophies are shaped by economic and social resources, (2) how your own life was shaped by social class, and (3) how you, as a professional will work to enhance child and youth development through collaborative efforts across different social class contexts. This paper should be a typed, double-spaced, 4-5 page paper. Please use Times New Roman 12 point font and 1” margins. Writing style (orderliness of presentation, clarity, and smoothness of expression) and grammar will be taken into consideration when evaluating your paper. In addition, accuracy and depth of conceptual understanding will be evaluated. Finally, your paper should be written in both a narrative and an expository voice. In other words, you should show that you understand the concepts and that you can apply them to your own personal experiences and to an imagined professional.
Issues you must address: • Describe the processes of concerted cultivation and accomplishment of natural growth, providing brief examples from the book to support your descriptions. • Explain which process best explains your personal experiences growing up, providing brief examples to support your explanation. Share insights that you gained about those who are growing up in contexts that are different from the one in which you developed. • Elucidate how different logics of childrearing (concerted cultivation and accomplishment of natural growth) result in different approaches to interacting with dominant institutions such as the school system. • Imagine that you are a teacher or other type of social service provider in a rural California school system in which both working-class and upper-middle class students attend. Given your understanding of how class influences parenting, language development, and, even, philosophies on how to interact with professionals, how would you collaborate with parents of both groups to facilitate child or youth development?

Essay 1: Memoir
Length:
2-3 pages double-spaced ONLY! Do not exceed.
Format:
MLA format, Times New Roman, Size 12, 1-inch margins
Who we are is shaped by a variety of factors, and one way to understand ourselves is to reflect on our past experiences and consider how they impact the present. A memoir gives you a chance to create a written snapshot of specific moments in your life, and to make meaning from them in a way that appeals to readers. You will rely on your memory and personal experience as the source of ideas. Sensory detail, description, dialogue, narration, and organization will translate your memories into an interesting and cohesive story for the reader.
For this essay, you will write about an event in your life that shaped your individual identity. It could be something that happened to you or that you observed, an encounter with a person who greatly influenced you, a decision that you made, or a challenge or obstacle that you faced, etc. “Identity” normally encompasses what we believe, how we act, who we are, how we see the world, how we define our purpose—and it could be related to various aspects of our life (ethnicity/culture, traditions/ rituals, talents/ interests, family, religion, education, personality).
Audience & Purpose:
Think of your audience as others who will understand you a bit better after reading your memoir. If you are too inward-focused, then your memoir will seem like a diary entry; therefore, you want to keep your audience interested and make your story worth reading. Don’t just talk about identity or the topic, and don’t just tell us what you thought. Make the reader feel that he or she is re-living the experience(s) with you—focus on one specific moment or a couple of moments in time and what they reveal.
Genre Conventions:
Memoirs usually rely on conventions such as
first-person narration; intimacy between narrator and reader
sharing of thoughts and feelings past and present
dominant impression/implicit thesis that focuses essay
conflict, complication, change, surprise, revelation, growth, or significance
vivid details and description of people/places/events
an organized but interesting narrative structure
Topic Choices:
{Instructor May Give Choices or Limit to One}
PLACE:
Write about a place that has shaped your identity, focusing on its distinct characteristics and a few of the most defining experiences at that place.
TRADITION:
Write about a family or cultural tradition that has shaped your identity, exploring its importance and some of the recurring memories associated with it.
OBJECT:
Write about an inanimate object(not a person or animal) that holds significant value for you and reveals a part of your identity (past, present, or future), considering the origins of it, its meaning to you, and its impact.
LITERACY:
Write about one or a few of the most significant educational / literacy experiences (reading/writing/learning) and how they shaped your attitude toward reading and.
Essay Two Expository Essay - Culture For this essay, you are .docx
Essay Two: Expository Essay - Culture
For this essay, you are to define and explore a culture. From Merriam-Webster, we have the following definition(s) of culture:
a :the integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior that depends upon the capacity for learning and transmitting knowledge to succeeding generations
· b :the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group; also :the
· characteristic features of everyday existence (such as diversions or a way of life) shared by people in a
· place or time: popular culture; Southern culture
c :the set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterizes an institution or organization a corporate culture focused on the bottom line
For our purposes, we will add the notion that some cultures are our born of tension (social or otherwise) and grow in response to other, perhaps dominant, cultures. If this is the case for your subject, your culture of exploration, you must explore this relationship.
Regardless of what culture you choose, focus, define and expose its inner-workings and explain what makes this so unique… to you and potentially to others. In other words, whether you’re writing about something intellectual, political, religious, fun or something practical like food, dismantle it as a culture.
As you explore your topic, reach for argumentation. That is, include in your discussion relevant ideas about culture (how we think, act, and behave during our daily lives) and history as they are connected to your subject. Your argumentative stance pertaining to the ways your topic affects us as real human beings should also be included. Ultimately, explain why your point of view deserves our attention… what makes your thesis and point of view significant?
Organizationally, you might start with an experience that helps frame your subject.
Stylistically, you should be authoritative, addressing the issue as someone who should be listened to; but be careful not to allow personal biases or emotions to control the tone of your essay.
The essay should be no less than 4 pages, typed, double-spaced with normal page margins, 12 pt. font. No research sources are required, but you will likely do research. If so, your sources MUST BE CITED using MLA Format.
Self-help Criteria: Continually ask yourself these questions during the writing process.
Focus: Does your essay have a clear point, or stance? Does the entire essay relate clearly to that point?
Development: Is your essay developed through examples, details, specific information?
Organization: Does your essay follow some clear logic and order? Does it flow? Have readability? Do you step away at certain points to explore your key idea—what you are trying to say?
Clarity: Is your essay written in clear and appropriate language—language befitting your topic? Does a strong individual voice emerge? Can the reader hear you?

TOPIC 2 Lecture 2-CHILDREN’S LITERATURE & DEVELOPMENT OF PERSONALITIES (1).pptx
The document discusses how reading literature can promote personal and academic development in children. It describes reader response theory, which sees reading as a transaction between the reader and text, with the reader drawing on their own experiences to interpret the text. Reading literature can lead to improved understanding of self and society, help shape personality as children interact with texts, and promote empathy, moral reasoning, imagination, and interpersonal skills. It can also boost reading comprehension, vocabulary, and cognitive skills like reasoning.

My Life Experience Essay.pdf
Writing an essay about one's life experiences presents several challenges. It requires deep self-reflection to recount meaningful events and articulate their impact. There is also a need to find a balance between sharing enough personal details to engage readers while respecting one's privacy. Another difficulty is organizing life events coherently as they often unfold non-linearly. Additionally, expressing oneself through writing requires strong language skills to convey emotions and insights. Revisiting past experiences can also bring unexpected feelings, making the writing process emotionally taxing. However, overcoming these challenges provides an opportunity for self-discovery and growth through sharing insights that resonate with others on a human level.
Intro To Critical Literacy Key Tenets
1) Critical literacy is a framework for engaging in literacy work that should look and feel different depending on the context, rather than having a single fixed definition.
2) Critical literacy should be a lens through which to participate in and understand the world, not just an add-on to the curriculum.
3) Issues and topics that interest students in their lives can and should be used as texts to build a curriculum with significance to them.

Identity Essay. Firelands School of Nursing
Writing an essay on identity poses significant challenges as it requires exploring the many layered and intricate factors that shape one's sense of self. These include personal, cultural, social, and existential elements that amalgamate to form our identities in a mosaic-like fashion. The essay must balance introspection with external influences in a nuanced way, addressing how life experiences, relationships, and social/cultural changes shape our evolving identities over time in a fluid and dynamic manner. Successfully capturing this complexity in a coherent written work demands both analytical and emotional skills to navigate the deep task of self-discovery and expression.

Week 5 Assignments
For the Inclusive Communication discussion we are looking at Chapter 9 of The Ecology of Diversity (Kahn, 2015). It showcases the need to bridge communication by demonstrating that we respect and value each other’s differences. It offers a variety of perspectives including listening and communication skills. Have you ever been in a situation when you made use of inclusive communication? What was the context and what was your rationale for using this type of communication? How did you avoid miscommunication or cultural clashes based on language? Be sure to support the response with primary academic research this week.
Watch this video, from our text, to get a better understanding of how communication is affected by language.
We all have times where communication can be improved for sure within our various relationships both old and new. This week review some of the times when you were not the best listener or you spoke too much versus the times when you actively were present and listened to the person speaking. There are times and places for all types of communication and learning more about yourself and others around you can ensure better communication overall.
In the written assignment Cultural Perspectives Draft this week we will look at perception. We can all be in a situation together and see it very differently. Just like a show or ride at an amusement park. One person in the group might think it is the best thing ever while others find it to be boring, scary, and sad or something else. We all see things through our own lens based on our experiences in life. I have some groups of friends for example that I can count on for live music events while others are not into that experience with crowds, loud noises and traffic. You might have a breakdown of a relationship and one person sees it very differently why it ended than the other. These are just some examples of how we perceive things differently.
Keep in mind the academic requirements of graduate level responses using research, critical thinking and writing style. This assignment requires students to write based on a compare-contrast structure. Editing Checklist for Compare-Contrast Paper (Links to an external site.) document, to review and edit your work. You can also use The Elements of Reasoning and the Intellectual Standards (Links to an external site.) to help hone your critical thinking skills as they relate to your assignments.

Essay 1: Memoir
Length:
2-3 pages double-spaced ONLY! Do not exceed.
Format:
MLA format, Times New Roman, Size 12, 1-inch margins
Who we are is shaped by a variety of factors, and one way to understand ourselves is to reflect on our past experiences and consider how they impact the present. A memoir gives you a chance to create a written snapshot of specific moments in your life, and to make meaning from them in a way that appeals to readers. You will rely on your memory and personal experience as the source of ideas. Sensory detail, description, dialogue, narration, and organization will translate your memories into an interesting and cohesive story for the reader.
For this essay, you will write about an event in your life that shaped your individual identity. It could be something that happened to you or that you observed, an encounter with a person who greatly influenced you, a decision that you made, or a challenge or obstacle that you faced, etc. “Identity” normally encompasses what we believe, how we act, who we are, how we see the world, how we define our purpose—and it could be related to various aspects of our life (ethnicity/culture, traditions/ rituals, talents/ interests, family, religion, education, personality).
Audience & Purpose:
Think of your audience as others who will understand you a bit better after reading your memoir. If you are too inward-focused, then your memoir will seem like a diary entry; therefore, you want to keep your audience interested and make your story worth reading. Don’t just talk about identity or the topic, and don’t just tell us what you thought. Make the reader feel that he or she is re-living the experience(s) with you—focus on one specific moment or a couple of moments in time and what they reveal.
Genre Conventions:
Memoirs usually rely on conventions such as
first-person narration; intimacy between narrator and reader
sharing of thoughts and feelings past and present
dominant impression/implicit thesis that focuses essay
conflict, complication, change, surprise, revelation, growth, or significance
vivid details and description of people/places/events
an organized but interesting narrative structure
Topic Choices:
{Instructor May Give Choices or Limit to One}
PLACE:
Write about a place that has shaped your identity, focusing on its distinct characteristics and a few of the most defining experiences at that place.
TRADITION:
Write about a family or cultural tradition that has shaped your identity, exploring its importance and some of the recurring memories associated with it.
OBJECT:
Write about an inanimate object(not a person or animal) that holds significant value for you and reveals a part of your identity (past, present, or future), considering the origins of it, its meaning to you, and its impact.
LITERACY:
Write about one or a few of the most significant educational / literacy experiences (reading/writing/learning) and how they shaped your attitude toward reading and.
Essay Two Expository Essay - Culture For this essay, you are .docx
Essay Two: Expository Essay - Culture
For this essay, you are to define and explore a culture. From Merriam-Webster, we have the following definition(s) of culture:
a :the integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior that depends upon the capacity for learning and transmitting knowledge to succeeding generations
· b :the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group; also :the
· characteristic features of everyday existence (such as diversions or a way of life) shared by people in a
· place or time: popular culture; Southern culture
c :the set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterizes an institution or organization a corporate culture focused on the bottom line
For our purposes, we will add the notion that some cultures are our born of tension (social or otherwise) and grow in response to other, perhaps dominant, cultures. If this is the case for your subject, your culture of exploration, you must explore this relationship.
Regardless of what culture you choose, focus, define and expose its inner-workings and explain what makes this so unique… to you and potentially to others. In other words, whether you’re writing about something intellectual, political, religious, fun or something practical like food, dismantle it as a culture.
As you explore your topic, reach for argumentation. That is, include in your discussion relevant ideas about culture (how we think, act, and behave during our daily lives) and history as they are connected to your subject. Your argumentative stance pertaining to the ways your topic affects us as real human beings should also be included. Ultimately, explain why your point of view deserves our attention… what makes your thesis and point of view significant?
Organizationally, you might start with an experience that helps frame your subject.
Stylistically, you should be authoritative, addressing the issue as someone who should be listened to; but be careful not to allow personal biases or emotions to control the tone of your essay.
The essay should be no less than 4 pages, typed, double-spaced with normal page margins, 12 pt. font. No research sources are required, but you will likely do research. If so, your sources MUST BE CITED using MLA Format.
Self-help Criteria: Continually ask yourself these questions during the writing process.
Focus: Does your essay have a clear point, or stance? Does the entire essay relate clearly to that point?
Development: Is your essay developed through examples, details, specific information?
Organization: Does your essay follow some clear logic and order? Does it flow? Have readability? Do you step away at certain points to explore your key idea—what you are trying to say?
Clarity: Is your essay written in clear and appropriate language—language befitting your topic? Does a strong individual voice emerge? Can the reader hear you?

TOPIC 2 Lecture 2-CHILDREN’S LITERATURE & DEVELOPMENT OF PERSONALITIES (1).pptx
The document discusses how reading literature can promote personal and academic development in children. It describes reader response theory, which sees reading as a transaction between the reader and text, with the reader drawing on their own experiences to interpret the text. Reading literature can lead to improved understanding of self and society, help shape personality as children interact with texts, and promote empathy, moral reasoning, imagination, and interpersonal skills. It can also boost reading comprehension, vocabulary, and cognitive skills like reasoning.
My Community Essay. Erie Community College
Writing an essay about one's community can present both opportunities and challenges, as it requires balancing personal anecdotes with broader insights into the community, addressing diverse cultural and social aspects without losing focus, and meeting specific requirements or word count limitations. However, the process can be rewarding as it encourages introspection and fosters a deeper appreciation for one's surroundings. For those struggling with such an essay, seeking assistance from writing services can help guide the organization of thoughts and language to craft a well-structured piece that meets the desired criteria.

My Life Experience Essay.pdf
Writing an essay about one's life experiences presents several challenges. It requires deep self-reflection to recount meaningful events and articulate their impact. There is also a need to find a balance between sharing enough personal details to engage readers while respecting one's privacy. Another difficulty is organizing life events coherently as they often unfold non-linearly. Additionally, expressing oneself through writing requires strong language skills to convey emotions and insights. Revisiting past experiences can also bring unexpected feelings, making the writing process emotionally taxing. However, overcoming these challenges provides an opportunity for self-discovery and growth through sharing insights that resonate with others on a human level.
Intro To Critical Literacy Key Tenets
1) Critical literacy is a framework for engaging in literacy work that should look and feel different depending on the context, rather than having a single fixed definition.
2) Critical literacy should be a lens through which to participate in and understand the world, not just an add-on to the curriculum.
3) Issues and topics that interest students in their lives can and should be used as texts to build a curriculum with significance to them.

Identity Essay. Firelands School of Nursing
Writing an essay on identity poses significant challenges as it requires exploring the many layered and intricate factors that shape one's sense of self. These include personal, cultural, social, and existential elements that amalgamate to form our identities in a mosaic-like fashion. The essay must balance introspection with external influences in a nuanced way, addressing how life experiences, relationships, and social/cultural changes shape our evolving identities over time in a fluid and dynamic manner. Successfully capturing this complexity in a coherent written work demands both analytical and emotional skills to navigate the deep task of self-discovery and expression.

Week 5 Assignments
For the Inclusive Communication discussion we are looking at Chapter 9 of The Ecology of Diversity (Kahn, 2015). It showcases the need to bridge communication by demonstrating that we respect and value each other’s differences. It offers a variety of perspectives including listening and communication skills. Have you ever been in a situation when you made use of inclusive communication? What was the context and what was your rationale for using this type of communication? How did you avoid miscommunication or cultural clashes based on language? Be sure to support the response with primary academic research this week.
Watch this video, from our text, to get a better understanding of how communication is affected by language.
We all have times where communication can be improved for sure within our various relationships both old and new. This week review some of the times when you were not the best listener or you spoke too much versus the times when you actively were present and listened to the person speaking. There are times and places for all types of communication and learning more about yourself and others around you can ensure better communication overall.
In the written assignment Cultural Perspectives Draft this week we will look at perception. We can all be in a situation together and see it very differently. Just like a show or ride at an amusement park. One person in the group might think it is the best thing ever while others find it to be boring, scary, and sad or something else. We all see things through our own lens based on our experiences in life. I have some groups of friends for example that I can count on for live music events while others are not into that experience with crowds, loud noises and traffic. You might have a breakdown of a relationship and one person sees it very differently why it ended than the other. These are just some examples of how we perceive things differently.
Keep in mind the academic requirements of graduate level responses using research, critical thinking and writing style. This assignment requires students to write based on a compare-contrast structure. Editing Checklist for Compare-Contrast Paper (Links to an external site.) document, to review and edit your work. You can also use The Elements of Reasoning and the Intellectual Standards (Links to an external site.) to help hone your critical thinking skills as they relate to your assignments.

Narrative as vocation discernment presentation
This document discusses using narrative analysis and ethnography to discern vocations.

Machiavelli
Development of INR – Week 3
Machiavelli
• Who was Machiavelli? Why is he important for
Political Realism?
• Florentine writer/diplomat between 1469-1527. Born
in a context of continuous crisis and warfare.
• It was not uncommon, for example, for Popes
themselves to lead armies in Italy against other city-
states – but especially against Holy Roman Emperor.
• Machiavelli experiences the unrelenting attempts by
various European powers to assert their hegemony
in Northern Italy – Chapter 26 of The Prince, is
basically a call to the Medici to use the opportunity of
chaos in Italy to lead it towards unification and glory.
Cont.
• Wrote two main works, The Prince and The Discourses
on Livy. The latter is an extended commentary on Livy’s
history of the foundation and history of Rome until about
300 BC – corresponds to the Third Samnite War.
• The interest in The Discourse on Livy is also to
contextualize Machiavelli the writer of the Prince –
concern with not just the acquisition of power; but with the
emergence and maintenance of a republic during periods
of crisis or political turbulence.

Madeleine Leininger Transcultural Nursing Theory
Discuss the applicability of the theory of culture care diversity and universality to discover nursing knowledge and provide culturally congruent care. Take into consideration the current trends of consumers of health care, cultural diversity factors, and changes in medical and nursing school curricula. The following are examples of trends you may use as a thread to start your discussion:
a. The importance of transcultural nursing knowledge in an increasingly diverse world
b. The growth of lay support groups to provide information and sharing of experiences and support for clients, families, and groups experiencing chronic, terminal, or life-threatening illnesses or treatment modalities from diverse or similar cultures
c. Cultural values, beliefs, health practices, and research knowledge in undergraduate and graduate nursing curricula across the life span
d. Inclusion of alternative or generic care in nursing curricula, such as medicine men, Native American healers, curers, and herbalists in the Southwest and selected substantiated Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine methods shown to be effective for the treatment of both acute and chronic diseases
e. The increased access to health care information from the Internet and the growing number of books, audio recordings, and video recordings published on health maintenance, alternative medicine, herbs, vitamins, minerals, and over-the-counter medications and preparations
f. Spiraling health care costs; use of health maintenance organizations, preferred provider organizations (PPO), or internal plan provider lists; lack of health insurance; increased reliance on self-diagnosis, treatment, and care; and increased availability of diagnostic kits for home-based self-diagnostic testing
g. Problems related to cultural conflicts, stress, pain, and cultural imposition practices
h. Increased suspiciousness and mistrust or distrust of cultural, religious, and political groups because of increased terrorist activities worldwide

Lucy LawlessBenitoCereno has three sources of narration.docx
Lucy Lawless
Benito
Cereno
has three sources of narration:
1. A limited third person narration that divides in two:
a. Primarily, the narrator limits him/herself to the thoughts and perceptions of Amasa Delano, so everything is described from Delano's persepective.
b. At times, the narrator demonstrates fuller knowledge than Delano has, even lightly criticizing Delano's naivete: in particular, the third person narrator seems already to be familiar with the events described in the deposition.
2. The objective, impersonal third person narration of the deposition, which records (an edited version of) the official law documents associated with the case of the
San Dominick.
No particular narrator is associated with the deposition, but it's obviously coming from some source. Just for fun, I call the seemingly invisible, un-identifiable narrator of the Deposition Lucy Lawless.
So here's the question for you to consider: Can you name any aspect of Lucy Lawless's account that might be inaccurate, biased, or incomplete? If so, can you identify a person from the story who might be able to provide a more complete, less biased, or more accurate version of that aspect of the story? If not, please explain why you believe that Lucy Lawless tells the whole truth and nothing but the truth, accurately and without prejudice. Please post your ideas in an original thread, providing accurate and precise cited evidence to illustrate your thinking, and explain the evidence that you provide, as necessary.
Then, respond thoughtfully to at least one post from a classmate. A 'thoughtful' response will a) reinforce the evidence by pointing out other examples of the same theme and/or b) extend the logic by thinking about the idea: quibbling with the interpretation, considering the implications of the claim, identifying seeming internal contradictions, identifying fundamental assumptions, refining distinctions, etcetera. Avoid simply agreeing or amplifying another's claim. Thoughtful posts must be original, and may not repeat posts made by others.

Los Angeles Times, Part A; Pg. 1, June 17, 2004
Thomas' Take on the Law Rooted in 18th Century;
The justice's historical perspective challenges many widely held beliefs about the
Constitution.
David G. Savage, Times Staff Writer
Justice Clarence Thomas may be silent in the Supreme Court during public arguments, but he is not shy about
making bold pronounc ements in written opinions.
His latest challenge to conventional wisdom came this week in the Pledge of Allegiance case, when he opined
that the Constitution protected a state's right to recognize an official church.
Almost everyone has assumed that the opposite is true.
It is not the first time Thomas has tried to turn the standard thinking on its head when it comes to understanding
key parts of the U.S. Constitution. He has done so by focusing on the words and history of the document as it
was written in 1787.
"He likes to say we should look at this afresh. Our law is muddled, and we should rethink it," Yale Law School
professor Akhil Amar said admir ingly of Thomas.
But the conseque nces o f his "re thinking" co uld be far-re aching.
For example, Thomas has argued that the word "commerce" in the Constitution should be understood as it was
in the 18th century: the movement of goods across state lines. Under this view, the states could not erect tariffs
or other barriers to the free flow of goods.
In the 20th century, however, the Supreme Court adopted a much broader view of commerce, relying on that
definition to uphold federal laws that set minimum wages, prohibited discrimination in the workplace,
protected the environment or regulat ed the manufac ture of products, in cluding autos and drugs.
In a separate 1995 opinion, Thomas said that this broad view conflicted with the Constitution and should be
reconsidered. If his colleagues ever agree, many of today's workplace laws would be struck down.
Soon after joining the court in 1991, Thomas wrote that the word "punishment" in the Constitution restricted
only "judges, not jailers." The high court had adopted a broader view of the ban on "cruel and unusual
punishment" in the 1970s and protected prisoners from being subjected to needlessly cruel treatment.
When Thomas denounced this view as flatly mistaken, Justice Harry A. Blackmun pointed out that his opinion
would permit the t orture of inmate s by prison guards.
Two years ago, Thomas condemned the doctrine supporting the separation of church and state, saying it grew
out of "anti-Catholic bigotry" during the 19th century. Then, Protestants controlled the public schools, and
immigrant Catholics set up their own schools to escape the Protestant influence, he said.
Beginning in the 1940s, a unanimous Supreme Court said that the 1st Amendment erected a "wall of separation
between church and state," quoting Thomas Jefferson. Relying on that view, the court in the early 1960s struck
down state-sponsored prayers and Bible readings in the public schools. Later, the justice.

Machiavelli
Development of INR – Week 3
Machiavelli
Who was Machiavelli? Why is he important for Political Realism?
Florentine writer/diplomat between 1469-1527. Born in a context of continuous crisis and warfare.
It was not uncommon, for example, for Popes themselves to lead armies in Italy against other city-states – but especially against Holy Roman Emperor.
Machiavelli experiences the unrelenting attempts by various European powers to assert their hegemony in Northern Italy – Chapter 26 of The Prince, is basically a call to the Medici to use the opportunity of chaos in Italy to lead it towards unification and glory.
Cont.
Wrote two main works, The Prince and The Discourses on Livy. The latter is an extended commentary on Livy’s history of the foundation and history of Rome until about 300 BC – corresponds to the Third Samnite War.
The interest in The Discourse on Livy is also to contextualize Machiavelli the writer of the Prince – concern with not just the acquisition of power; but with the emergence and maintenance of a republic during periods of crisis or political turbulence.
Machiavelli – A retrieval of a type of pagan knowledge of politics.
A reemphasis on a non-eschatological temporality to understand politics.
Virtù
Because of constant conflict the Prince needs to possess certain qualities to ‘maintain his state’ and “increase his power’.
Virtù: possessing the knowledge and will to do what needs to be done even if it may be considered evil.
The Prince must possess a “flexible disposition” (Chapter 18).
Implies an ability of adaptation to changing political circumstances.
Fortuna
What undermines political order. Circumstances that can emerge to undermine the Prince’s power or security.
Machiavelli: Fortuna is “one of our destructive rivers which, when it is angry, turns the plains into lakes, throws down the trees and buildings, takes earth from one spot, puts it in another; everyone flees before the flood; everyone yields to its fury and nowhere can repel it.”
Cont.
Machiavelli: “I conclude therefore that, fortune being changeful and mankind steadfast in their ways, so long as the two are in agreement men are successful, but unsuccessful when they fall out. For my part I consider that it is better to be adventurous than cautious, because fortune is a woman, and if you wish to keep her under it is necessary to beat and ill-use her; and it is seen that she allows herself to be mastered by the adventurous rather than by those who go to work more coldly. She is, therefore, always, woman-like, a lover of young men, because they are less cautious, more violent, and with more audacity command her.”
Sexualized Imagery: What does it imply?
Politics is not just about mastery; it’s also about foundation, beginning, natality.
Catherine Zuckert: “The task of the price is not only to dominate but also to create, to give life to a new being.”
Implications
Separation of God and Fortuna.
Medieval Theology: Fortuna is divine will.

Lots of people are frustrated with politics in America today.One.docx
Lots of people are frustrated with politics in America today.
One common complaint is that they two-party system is at fault. People making this complaint worry that, for example, political views not represented by the two parties – Republicans and Democrats – are excluded from political discourse. Or that having only two parties limits the choices available on election day, and if neither candidate is desirable, there’s no one left to choose.
But there is another view, as you’ve read. This other view is that blaming the two-party system for today’s problems is misguided. This argument says, among other things, that citizens of other countries with multi-party systems are no more satisfied with the state of their politics than Americans are with ours. We blame the two-party system, they say, because we think “the grass is always greener on the other side,” when really it’s not.
And, they argue, we don’t really have a two-party system, anyway. As recently as 1992, a third party, the Reform Party, got almost 19% of the national popular vote in a presidential election. But is this a good argument when, having earned 19% of the popular vote, the reform party got no electoral votes?
Given what you’ve read, what do you think about the two-party system? Should we do something to change it? If so, what?

Looking ahead in your DBA program, the final step in the course sequ.docx
Looking ahead in your DBA program, the final step in the course sequence is a comprehensive exam. Students must successfully pass the comprehensive exam before moving on to the dissertation phase.
Your preparation for the comprehensive exam should have already started via your study in previous courses, self-documentation of your learning, and completion of the reflection journals with your mentor.
For the Week 3 paper, you will provide an annotated outline that:
Segments the OB field into at least three broad categories. You may have more than three categories, but the minimum for this assignment is three. For example:
Individual
Group/Team
Organizational/Environmental
Provides a set of core topics beneath each of the broad categories. At this point in your doctoral development, you must have at least five core topics for each category (thus, a minimum of fifteen total). You may have more than five topics for each category (and eventually you will in your preparation for the exam!) but the minimum for this assignment is five topics for each of your categories (or, at least a total of fifteen topics if you have more than three categories).
Integrates one annotated resource (key author—with brief description or bullet points of important points the author makes about the topic) for your fifteen core topics. You may provide more than one resource per topic, but you must have at least one resource each for a minimum of fifteen topics.
Synthesizes key learning from working on the guide, next steps you will take working on your guide, and potential benefits beyond comprehensive exam preparation.
Sample Structure:

Problem Statement
The bank has faced a high increase in cross-selling scandal cases, which has profoundly damaged its reputation. The mission and the value of the bank were to satisfy the customer's needs and help them succeed financially. Contrarily, a close look at the scandal and reasons for its existence went far away from the bank key goal.
Problem Statement Worksheet
Organizational problem
Organizational Ethics
The most affected stakeholder by the problem
The problem is most likely to affect the company staff, shareholders as well as customers. The Cross-selling scandal means fewer earnings for the shareholder, who are the critical beneficiaries of the profits attained through daily transactions (Tayan, 2019). The money lost at the course of the scandal will significantly reduce regular earnings. Customers of the bank are also other victims of the problem; the bank staff uses unethical means to exploit money from customers when unable to meet their daily targets.
The employees of the company were also affected by the problem; those found guilty of opening new accounts without customer permission were laid off their duties. Opening of unauthorized customer accounts was fueled by high targets, which were set by the management (Klemash et al. 2019).
Type of the problem
The problem is based on self-interests, knowledge, and skills among the staff and poor organizational structure (Klemash et al. 2019). The action of the bank staff to exploit money from the customers to attain their daily targets is entirely unethical.
Suspect causes
Among the critical causes of the problem are the splitting of customer deposits, overbearing sales culture, employees’ misconducts, excessive pressure of employees by the top management, and Illicit practices (Tayan, 2019).
Improvement goal and the long-term impact
The main goal is to identify a solution to the five leading causes of the scandal, which will help prevent the company staff from participating in any unethical practice that is not in line with its goals.
Impacts to the stakeholders
The cross-selling scandal has caused significant loss of finances to both customers and company shareholders.
Customers were able to lose significant amounts of money, which was withdrawn from their accounts without their consent.
Solution
proposal
The company should consider making the roles of different executive directors clear. Having a clear and distinct role will help in holding individual staff accountable. Caution employees from doing any form of the transaction without customers' permission.
Those found guilty of exploiting customers for self-interests should be laid off their duties and prosecuted in a court of law.
Final problem statement
The cross-selling cases which go against organizational ethics have highly increased among the bank employees. The targets set by the management are putting employees under pressure to perfo.

No unread replies.No replies.
Hi everyone! You've now completed three weeks of NR631 (assuming that your literature review is done), and you are ready to move forward to week 4. I'll be grading your TD participation hopefully on Monday and then I'll work on your literature review assignments starting on Tuesday. This is a more extensive assignment and I have assignments due in other courses so it might take me a little longer to get your lit reviews back. I'm anticipating some excellent literature review on your great CGE topics 😎. Let's take a look at what lies ahead in week 4...
Introduction
In week 4, the lesson title is "Communication in Project Management" and we'll be addressing the following course outcomes:
CO #1: Apply leadership skills of project management as a nurse executive in an organizational setting to develop, implement, and evaluate successful project plans (PO 4,5)
CO #3: Exemplify professional values and scholarship that support the role of a student in a practicum setting (PO 4) (this is in reference to your time at your practicum site and you'll see this each week)
CO #5: Apply professional values characteristic of the competent and caring nurse executive that promotes holistic care principles and an appreciation of cultural humility (PO 1,3,4)
I encourage you to keep these course outcomes in mind while you read your text, articles, and lessons, as you participate in TDs, as you participate in practicum hours, and as you complete assignments.
Reading:
Your week 4 reading consists of three articles from peer reviewed journals. Two would be considered "scholarly" by Chamberlain definition as they are within five years old. The Culo article is from 2010 but it's a very good article so I decided to keep it. Please be sure to read these articles prior to constructing your initial TD post.
Lesson:
This week's lesson is about communication and building a communication plan. One point the lesson brings out is that, like most of the templates we are using, many organizations have their own formats or templates. I encourage you to reach out to the PM professionals in your organization and ask about this and compare our template to what you use in your organization. If your organization doesn't use a communication plan, it may be something you can suggest as a value added step.
Collaboration Cafe ☕️:
The week 4 discussion is a Collaboration Cafe ☕️! As with all TDs and Collaboration Cafe's the reduced participation guidelines are in effect for those who need them. I will be reviewing posts each day to make sure you're headed in the right direction. A note of interest...this CC is actually based on an idea that an NR631 student shared in the old week 4 TD. I thought it was such a great thought that I used it (with her permission) to form this learning activity. I hope you enjoy it and I look forward to the knowledge you'll build!

Literacy Narrative Assignment Your Story About a DiscourseCommunit.docx
- 1. Literacy Narrative Assignment: Your Story About a Discourse/Community A Literacy Narrative is an autobiographical story about your experience/s with literacy, language, and communication. Tell a story about struggling with or feeling empowered by learning how to communicate/become literate in a particular discourse community. Your goal here is to narrate a story that describes vividly your experiences with a particular literacy and to reflect on why and how your experiences were significant. Think of this assignment as a combination of creative storytelling and honest reflection about how a discourse community’s way of communicating has shaped your identity in some important way. I like to tell students to think about a time they were transformed or deeply affected by learning the rules of communication in a particular community. James Gee explains that “Discourses are ways of being in the world, or forms of life which integrate words, acts, values, beliefs, attitudes, social identities, as well as gestures, glances, body positions and clothes. A Discourse is a sort of 'identity kit' which comes complete with the appropriate costume and instructions on how to act, talk, and often write, so as to take on a particular social role that others will recognize.” This means “literacy” isn’t about just reading and writing, but learning about how to work in and contribute to a community.
- 2. The purpose of this assignment is to (continue to) reflect on some aspect of your history as a writer/reader/language user and how language has shaped your identity, values, beliefs, behavior, or worldview. Your story needs to have a point, a lesson, a “So What?” Was there a lesson learned? What did you learn as you succeeded or failed at the literacy you attempted? How is your story unique (or not unique)? How have you been shaped by a particular language practice? And again, as usual, we will discuss and explore the parameters of this assignment. This genre of writing is more creative, using concrete detail, narration, and story telling. You may pick one specific event you can chronicle a literacy history chronologically, or you can write about several events though one uniting theme. You are encouraged to narrate experiences that take place inside or outside of educational settings. You learn many discourses in
- 3. your life, all of which shape you important ways. We become literate in many different discourses and communities throughout our lives-- personal, vocational, educational, spiritual, extra curricular, and more.
