On Dumpster Diving meets Aphrodite As we discuss narratives this week, let's talk about description, particularly sensory description (smells, sounds, sights, tastes and touch) and using specific details (instead of generic details) to make things come to life. So begin with your first reaction to these pieces. What moved you or interested you or surprised you? As a writer learning from other writers, what did either of these pieces do well that you might want to do as well? Then, in addition to talking about these pieces as ways to use the personal to make a point, I want you to consider HOW they are engaging the senses and "putting you into the scenes" with the specific use of details to further their personal narratives. Did this work (or not) for you and why? Responses to at least 2 posts (in this thread) must be up by Friday at midnight. Remember: An original post should be roughly 200 words. .

Writing Habits & Sensory Detail

Julia Goldberg

Major Paper #1--The Point of View Essay Purpose: This paper assignment has several purposes. As the first major paper for this class, the Point of View Essay is designed to re-engage you with the fundamentals of all good writing, including using lush sensory details to show the reader a particular place (rather than tell them about it), basic organization, clear focus, etc. However, this unit does not function as a mere review. The Point of View Essay will also introduce you to the concept of "thinking and seeing rhetorically, and analyzing writing rhetorically"--using the Writer's Toolbox described in this unit to improve your writing and critical reading skills. Finally, the Point of View Essay allows you to reflect on this process. The Assignment: 1. Pleasant/Unpleasant Description of the Place: Choose a place you can observe for an extended period of time (at least 20-30 minutes). Use all of your senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, even taste if possible) to experience the place, and record all of the sensations that you experience. As you record your data, you may wish to note which details naturally seem more positive, negative, or neutral, in terms of tone. (For instance, a stinky and overflowing trash barrel swarming with flies in a nearby alley might seem more inherently negative than a little white bunny rabbit hopping playfully across the lawn.) Then, you will use this information to help your write two descriptions of the place: one positive, one negative (at least 1-2 well-developed paragraphs or a minimum of 125-150 words each). Both descriptions should be factually true (same real time and real place), but you will want one description to be clearly positive in terms of tone and the other to be clearly negative. In addition to including the information and sensory details you've collected as the basis for these descriptions, you will also use the Writer's Toolbox to create your two contrasting impressions for this assignment. (The Writer's Toolbox is explained in the Lecture Notes section of this unit.) As you revise and refine your descriptions, please be sure you are "showing" your readers your place (really putting the readers "there" in the moment and in this scene), rather than simply "telling" them about it. You will also want to try to eliminate unnecessary linking verbs as much as you can, incorporating verbs that show "action" whenever possible. 2. Rhetorical Analysis: Looking back at your descriptions, analyze how you created these two very different impressions of the place (one positive, one negative) without changing any of the facts. How did you make your place seem so positive in one paragraph and yet so negative in the other paragraph, without changing the facts? Discuss how you incorporated each of the tools from the Writer's Toolbox, and cite examples of this from each of your descriptions. (This analysis should be at least 400-500 words in length.) 3. Reflection: In one to two paragrap.

Play Critique Guidelines Each critique should be a minimum of two pages in length, typed and double-spaced with 12 size font and appropriate margins. It should have the structure similar to any critical paper- an introduction with a thesis, a body with examples and evidence supporting the thesis, and a clear conclusion. Your thesis should be your statement of your “feelings” about the production: Did you like it? Did you dislike it? Were you bored? Was it engaging? Exciting? Average? Mediocre? The body of the critique should include specifics concerning why you did or didn’t like the production. Things to comment on might include the acting, was it believable? Were some performers stronger than others? Why were they stronger? What made others weaker? What did you think about the direction of the play? Did it appear smooth and seamless? How was the pace? Was it rushed or did it drag? What did you think about the set, costumes, sound and lighting? What was your first impression of the set? Did it make you curious? Relaxed? Edgy? What did the costumes tell you about the different characters? How did the lighting affect the mood of the piece? What were your thoughts on the story itself? What did you think about the characters? What do you think the intent of the production was? Was there a specific message that you as an audience member received? What were your feelings at the end? Focus on how effectively all the elements of the show combined to tell the story. There are many different things for you to comment on in your critique but the bottom line is simple. You either liked the production, found it average, or you disliked it. Now your job is to explain why. .

Descriptive Essay Requirements Descriptive Essay: (4-5 paragraphs; at least 300 words; 1 ½ pages) The descriptive essay will describe (in detail) a place or a person, using concrete and specific language (language that creates mental pictures) that appeals to various senses (sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell). Descriptive adjectives that convey emotion/personality and atmosphere/mood should be included. To enhance the effect, utilization of figurative language (e.g., similes, metaphors) is HIGHLY encouraged. Requirements: 12 point font Times New Roman Double-spaced MLA Header and page numbers 300 words; at least four (4) paragraphs Must describe person or place Create a vivid image and contain descriptive adjectives/adverbs See Rubric for other criteria Descriptive Essay Housekeeping Miranda Rowe What is your topic? Your topic needs to be a person or a place. It cannot be a large place. It needs to be a piece/ small part of a small place. For example: Not New York City, but the World Trade Center Memorial. Not Michigan, or even Dearborn, Michigan, but a restaurant IN Dearborn, MI. Should you narrow down your topic? Descriptive essays are pictures, NOT movies!!! Introductions…. Do reader’s know who the essay is about by the end of the first sentence? Do you need to change your first sentence? Does your introduction grab your readers attention? Is there a very interesting/ odd/ weird fact you can give? My roommate, Alex, can say “Hello” in five different languages. My hometown of Middletown, is the birthplace of modern steel. How can you change your introduction to be more interesting? Body paragraphs The body of your essay is the middle of your essay. Your body paragraphs should describe three points. They SHOULD NOT try to describe everything. Let’s try using the picture…. Creating an informal, rough outline will help! Creating an informal outline Effective Conclusions Need to be full paragraphs and support your ideas. There is no need to repeat information. Use this paragraph to end your essay, while adding new information. Introductions and conclusions frame your descriptive picture. Conclusions need to answer the “So What” question. Why did we read this? What should we have learned by reading your essay? How do your points fit together? Descriptive Writing Standing on his hind legs, this rare andalucian stallion is fearless. His ears are turned back while his noble looking head is held high. His all black coat glistens in the late afternoon sun. His face displays a strong confidence with his nostrils flared, his veins bulging from his cheek bones, and his fiery black eyes burning holes into the souls of those who stare into them. His neck muscles are tensed and thickened with adrenalin. His black main is thrown into the wind like a flag rippling in the winds of a tornado. His muscular front legs are brought up to his chest displaying his flashing gray hooves that could crush a man's scull with one.

What was your most significant experience in nature? Is there a natural place that you have worked to protect and maintain? Is there a place in nature that feels therapeutic to you in some way? Is there a place that helps explain who you are today as a person? For this first mini project, you will write a reflection about a place in nature that is meaningful to you. “Meaningful” is broadly conceived here: it can be a place that’s central to your identity, a place that evokes nostalgia, a place that you associate with your activism. "Nature" is also broadly conceived-- as we will explore in this unit, "nature" means different things to different people. To some, nature is the wilderness, while to others it's a green park in an urban city. Since this class investigates the relationship between identity, place, space, and the cultural forces at work in any place, the prompt is deliberately broad so that you have the space (ha!) to make those connections in a way that is authentic to you. However, you may not write about your experiences with "nature" generally. You must pick a specific place to talk about. Three important rules about your reflection: 1. Following the genre conventions of nature writing, you’ll want to use descriptive details, so that your reader can picture this place. Try to remember the sights, sounds, smells and other sensory details of the experience. Help the reader understand what this place feels like, smells like, what associations you have with the place. For nature writing to be successful, it has to evoke a sense of place. 2. Before you write, you'll also want to decide why you have chosen this place: why is it meaningful to you ? What personal associations and feelings do you have with this place? Nature writing is often deeply personal. Think about how GE Patterson's poem is different from Alice Walker's "Am I Blue?" in terms of what it reveals about the writer. 3. You'll also want to make it clear to us why you've chosen to share about this place - what do you want us , your readers, to think about this place or your experience with this place? What's your purpose in sharing it with us? The writers in this unit have varying purposes: to make arguments about what "counts" as nature or to make arguments about who has access to nature, to bring awareness, to reveal some aspect of the writer's identity, etc. Two writers can write about the same place for different reasons. What's your reason for sharing this place with us (besides the fact that it's an assignment)? What do you want us to walk away thinking about or questioning? Because nature writing is, at it's core, a public-facing genre, you'll post your final draft of the discussion board called Mini-Project #1: Nature Writing , so that your classmates can read it. The reflection should be at least 500 words long. It should be a polished draft - you should edit and revise it to the best of your ability before posting. .

One of the first anthropologists to examine religion in Africa was Edward Evans-Pritchard in the early 1900's. You will explore what he learned about the Azande by watching the first 23 minutes of " Strange Beliefs: Sir Edward Evans-Pritchard ". Instructions: When you are done watching the video answer the following questions by referring to specific information from the video, NOT outside sources: How do the Azande people featured in the film explain unfortunate events and what do they do about it? According to your textbook, what is religion and how would Azande religious beliefs be classified? Do you think Azande beliefs are any more or less rational than other religious beliefs like Judaism, Christianity, Islam, or Buddhism? .

One of the most important concepts in clinical practice and group work is confidentiality. All members of the group sign an informed consent form in order to address the rules and parameters of the group sessions. The rules regarding confidentiality are stated in one section of the form. Although every member must sign this agreement, ensuring that all information shared in the group remains confidential can be difficult. As the group leader, the clinical social worker is responsible for developing strategies so that all members feel safe to share. For this Discussion, review the “Working With Groups: Latino Patients Living With HIV/AIDS” case study. By Day 3 Post strategies you might prefer to use to ensure confidentiality in a treatment group for individuals living with HIV/AIDS. Describe how informed consent addresses confidentiality in a group setting. How does confidentiality in a group differ from confidentiality in individual counseling? Also, discuss how you would address a breach of confidentiality in the group. Required Readings Plummer, S.-B., Makris, S., & Brocksen, S. M. (Eds.). (2014).

The center’s mission was to provide medical and psychosocial services to adult patients living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH). Both patients and providers at the center expressed a need for a group to address the needs of the center’s Latino population. At the time the group was created, 36% of the center’s population identified as Latino, and 25% of this cohort identified Spanish as their primary language. The purpose of the group was twofold: 1) to reduce the social isolation felt by Latino patients at the center and 2) to create a culturally sensitive environm.

One could argue that old-fashioned attitudes regarding gender and "traditional" gender roles are becoming obsolete. In many parts of the world women head major corporations and hold high positions of power—positions historically seen as being of the male domain. In turn, many men freely choose to be "stay-at-home-dads" or enter professions that were once considered to be "feminine." Naturally, our contemporary views of gender and gender roles illustrate the social progress we have made as one human culture. Yet, prehistoric and ancient works of art tell a different story—one that reinforces old-fashioned gender roles (and maybe for good reason). Prehistoric and ancient representations of gender illustrate the social norms of their periods. Naturally, these works of art were produced by people whose lives and values were quite different from ours. Yet, the views of gender presented by these works of art are, despite our contemporary sensibilities, are still very recognizable. Write an essay that analyzes the representation of gender and gender roles as seen in Woman of Willendorf (prehistoric: c. 25,000–20,000 B.C.E.) and Kouros / Statue of Standing Youth (ancient Greece: c. 580 B.C.E.). .

One of the hallmarks of qualitative research is writing detailed observations when collecting data. For this assignment, take a notebook with you to a public setting where social interaction takes place (restaurant, public library, public park, shopping mall, airport, etc.). Observe for an hour, then write up your notes into a descriptive vignette, looking for patterns in events and actions. Observe as though you are a stranger in a new country, trying to make sense of the action around you. Describe how things look, smell, sound, feel, etc. Be as descriptive as possible. Write up your observations into a vignette with the intention of having readers feel as though they are in the environment you choose to observe. Do not be shy to talk to people and ask what they are doing for more information. REMEMBER to concentrate on observing the context only (NO PERSONAL OPINIONS)! This paper should be no longer than 3 pages double-spaced. There is going to be follow-up with this assignment in Module 8. Assignment Specifics: · Student will write a 3 double-spaced reflective paper. · Citations from any of the required reading/presentations from the assigned module · APA format .

Electronic evidence can be short-lived and fragile. It needs to be collected in a defensible, methodological manner to preserve it accurately, and to withstand scrutiny in legal proceedings. (chain of custody) Electronic evidence can be highly probative, both as it appears to users, and behind the scenes. There is a lot of information that a computer user never sees (e.g. metadata, logs, registry entries). This behind-the-scenes evidence may provide a wealth of information about who did what when and where. Forensic analysts are trained to preserve, collect and interpret this kind of evidence. Some digital files can be recovered, even if a user has tried to delete them. Locate a famous case where digital forensics played a role, and share it with the class. Discuss how digital forensics was critical in cracking the case. Examples are listed below, but you can’t use them – find your own. Famous cases cracked with digital forensics Be it a text message, Google searches or GPS information, a person’s digital footprint can provide plenty of ammunition in the courtroom. Here are a few cases where digital forensics played a critical role in bringing about justice . 1. The BTK Killer, Dennis Rader Perhaps the most famous case to be solved through digital forensics is that of the BTK Killer Dennis Rader , with “BTK” referring to his MO of “bind, torture and kill.” Rader enjoyed taunting police during his killing sprees in Wichita, KS. But this also proved to be his fatal flaw. A floppy disk Rader sent to police revealed his true identity. He was soon arrested, pled guilty and was put behind bars for life, much to the relief of his long-terrorized community. 2. Dr. Conrad Murray’s lethal prescriptions Another recent case solved with digital forensics was that of Dr. Conrad Murray, personal physician of Michael Jackson . Digital forensics played a crucial role in the trial. After Jackson passed away unexpectedly in 20.

One of the most important filmmakers of the twentieth century to release such popular films such as Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and The Breakfast Club was someone by the name of John Hughes. Born February 18 in 1950, he sadly died 11 years ago due to a heart attack. Brought up in Michigan, John Hughes started off by creating jokes for already famous comedians. He then began to capture the interest of adolescents in the 1980’s with his work. Movies such as The Breakfast Club;Sixteen Candles;Ferris Bueller's Day Off;Plane, Trains, and Automobiles; and Home Alone gained a huge amount of popularity over time. These movies usually ended in a good way but not without a struggle along the way. One of John Hughes most popular film’s, titled The Breakfast club takes place in a school library setting as the main 5 students are tasked with learning and understanding each other. Understanding their dislikes for teachers, parents, as well as going through the peer pressure of their respective social groups. This film highly resembles Hughes' work as it reaches toward the best of society with all different types of popular culture which explains why the movie takes place in a library, with the students surrounded by art, books, and statues. Hughes was very well known as being the king of highschool movies. All of his work dealt with teenagers and the issues they dealt with. Ferris Bueller Ferris Buellers was one of Hughes' first comedies, and it is the most original movie about high school that has ever been made. There wasn't a movie like it before it was made, and since many attempts have been made to recapture what Ferris Buellers brought to the table. Unfortunately, that is impossible. A big part of Ferris Bueller's magic was the originality of Hughes' vision. He looked at teenagers and high school life from a completely new perspective. Hughes created a world where everything worked out for the hero, and everyone can identify with that. .

But if we stretch time, the potent context of modern nationalism/settler colonialism becomes strongly palpable.” Kandice Chuh argues that it is imperative for us to “stretch time”: to be able to place utterances and individuals in the academic context in the broader context of modern nationalism and settler colonialism.

On p. 98-99 of Music and Capitalism, Tim Taylor writes, “These and other Western star musicians employ other common discourses about the musicians with whom they worked and the musics they appropriated or collaborated with. The dominant ideology and discourse are that non-Western musics are a kind of natural resource that is available for the taking, though these acts of appropriation are frequently tempered by the Western star’s appearance alongside the non-Western musicians in publicity photographs, on recordings, and in liner notes.” Review your notes from class about important words, or look these up as necessary: discourse, appropriation, collaboration, ideology Then, write a response that does the following: Explain: what does this quotation mean in your own words? How does the Graceland example fit in with what Tim Taylor is talking about here ? Think of another time that musicians with different power positions are part of a musical performance or recording (you can use one in the chapter, like Buena Vista Social Club, Deep Forest, “The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” “Return to Innocence,” “El Condor Pasa,” or Talking Timbuktu , or one not in the reading that interests you). Describe the relationship between the musicians, and argue whether you think the album/performance is appropriation, collaboration, sampling, or something else. If the artists have different positionalities in terms of race, gender, and/or country of origin, comment on the effect this has. Give your opinion on ethical questions raised in this particular situation. Your response should be about 3-5 paragraphs (minimum 12 sentences) in length.

On 1 January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development — adopted by world leaders in September 2015 at an historic UN Summit — officially came into force. These goals address every topic of concern we have discussed this semester. Over the coming decade, it's the hope of UN member nations (which includes the U.S.) that the SDGs will universally be applied to all, countries will mobilize efforts to end all forms of poverty, fight inequalities and tackle climate change, while ensuring that no one is left behind. With the SDGs as your reference, answer these questions: Are any of the 17goals from the UN website particularly unrealistic—describe, in detail, why you think so (or not). Which of the 17 goals do you believe is the highest priority for the world and why? Cite specific examples from class content, discussions and assessments. .
