Social interaction is the third major school of sociology and can be studied at the micro level. It includes subtle behaviors like eye contact and facial expressions that communicate important social meanings. The study of social interaction illuminates fundamental aspects of social life and is informed by theories of dramaturgy and impression management, which view social interactions as performances with front and back regions.
Blogging chooseand userev2
This document discusses the differences between blogs, news articles, and personal journals.

2) Students are then directed to join their teacher's group on the Ning site and given steps to add their first blog post.

St power pointlilyllyod
The document compares the approaches of two students, Lily and Lloyd, in creating PowerPoint presentations for their senior thesis papers. Lily followed best practices like including a title slide, outlining her thesis and presentation structure, using bullet points and images with citations, and concluding with a summary and call for questions. In contrast, Lloyd's presentation lacked organization and structure, with missing elements like a title, too much text per slide, and no citations for images. The moral is that students should follow design principles to create clear, visually appealing presentations.
Tkam Dorothea Lange
Dorothea Lange was a documentary photographer who captured the struggles of migrant farm workers and families during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Her photos exposed the widespread poverty and hardship faced by many Americans at that time, bringing national attention to the human toll of the economic crisis. Some of her most iconic images from the era include "Migrant Mother," which depicted a destitute pea picker in California, and helped influence political support for President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal programs.

Effective memoir uses simplicity and strips sentences to their essential components to engage short attention spans. Six-word memoirs express profound ideas concisely through careful word choice. Students are tasked with writing three six-word memoirs and pairing each with an image.

St take note

The document provides tips for publishing poetry, including reading widely to develop one's skills, knowing what genres and styles best suit one's voice, researching markets and submission guidelines, starting with smaller publications, submitting professionally with proper formatting, keeping records of submissions, learning from rejections, and being wary of predatory anthologies that charge fees.

Srn drama background
This document defines drama as a story told through dialogue. It notes that dramas are meant to be performed on stage or screen, so the setting is important. Since there is no narrator, the plot unfolds through characters' actions and speech as they deal with conflicts. Characters are central to dramas as they provide information and drive the story forward. When reading a teleplay, one should pay attention to the list of characters, dialogue attribution, scene changes, camera directions that visualize the story, and stage directions that describe the scene.
Rj br intro
William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He wrote 37 plays and 154 other works including poems during his lifetime. Some of his most famous plays include Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, and Macbeth. Shakespeare's plays were performed in London theaters like the Globe Theatre, which was owned by Shakespeare and his acting troupe. His plays have endured and are still popular today for their complex characters, themes, and use of language like iambic pentameter and sonnets.
Wfs claims
A claim is the "backbone" of an essay. It connects all the elements of a paper and defines the purpose by containing a topic and position on that topic. A good claim unifies the writer's thoughts under one main idea and prevents the reader from asking "So what?" about the topic. More specifically, a claim is not merely a statement of fact, personal opinion, or vague generalization. It should also propose a solution or make a comparison to effectively argue a position.
Wfs academic voice
This document discusses point of view in academic writing. It explains that first person point of view uses words like "I", "we", and "my" and is not appropriate for academic papers as it makes the writing seem biased. Second person point of view uses "you" and addresses the reader directly, which can be seen as pushy. The document recommends using third person point of view with impersonal pronouns like "one", "they", and "people" to maintain an objective tone without directing statements at the reader.
Wfs they sayi_say1617
The document provides guidance on using quotations in writing. It advises including outside sources and expert opinions to strengthen arguments and confirm claims. Quotations should be selected carefully and used to support key ideas. When including a quote, a writer must introduce it by framing it in their own words, cite the source, and explain how the quote backs up the point being made. Quotations add authority when used correctly and framed within the writer's own analysis.
Ps transitions public
This document discusses the importance of using transitions in public speaking. It defines transitions as phrases that indicate when a speaker is moving from one idea to the next. Some examples of transitions provided are "in addition," "now that we've seen," and "on the other hand." The document also discusses using internal previews to foreshadow upcoming points and internal summaries to recap what has already been discussed. Signposts are brief statements that indicate where the speaker is in the speech. Failing to use these techniques can cause audiences to feel lost between ideas.
Ps organization
This document provides guidance on organizing a public speaking presentation. It explains that the introduction should grab the audience's attention, set the purpose, and preview the main points. The body should have 2-3 main points supported by evidence, using an organizational strategy consistently. The conclusion should reiterate the topic and purpose, review the main points, and leave the audience with a concluding thought. It recommends starting by outlining the body, then writing the introduction and conclusion, adding an attention-grabbing opener and memorable closing statement. Transitions and revisions are also important.
Ps rate
This document provides tips for maintaining a natural and comfortable pace when public speaking. It recommends aiming for a rate of speech that is neither too fast nor too slow, as this helps ensure clarity. Various factors can influence speech rate, such as birth/culture, stress, fatigue, and complexity of content. Generally, a slower pace is better than a faster one. The document suggests having partners time each other reading to determine their words per minute and identify ways to optimize their individual speech rates.
