Instructions
ILOs
Understand the general nature, purposes, and techniques of literature with a sense of its relationship to life and culture.
Understand the biographical, historical, and cultural contexts of a representative selection of works by major writers.
Identify the relationships among the literary works studied and the philosophical, religious, political, social, and economic milieus of the cultures and subcultures within and among which they were written.
Engage and respond to literary texts personally and creatively.
Think, write, and speak about literary texts critically and effectively.
For weeks 3-6 you will be completing a variety of creative or analytical reading engagements. There are nine choices for this assignment. Choose a different one to do for each week; you may not repeat choices.
Each week the content for your RE must be drawn from the week's assigned readings:
For the week 3 RE: Use the week 3 short stories
Choice 1: Collection of Poems
Write a collection of poems (three minimum) that demonstrate reflection upon and engagement with the short story or stories. You may write about a setting, about a theme, or from a character's point of view. Each poem must be a minimum of ten lines, and you must complete two drafts. Share the first draft with a friend or family member for review feedback. Please ensure the reader writes or types his or her feedback as you will need to submit proof of your outside review. In your submission, include the first drafts (with commentary for revision) and the final drafts. Make sure that the poems demonstrate strong specific connections with and to the text—they should convince your grader of a critical engagement with the text. Alternately, if you are musical, you can record three short songs. You would submit the lyrics (two drafts, demonstrating revisions) and a video of you (or an appointed performer) performing the songs.
Choice 2: Draw a Map
Draw a map that captures, in detail, the setting of a text. This could be a house, town, or roadside event. You may need to draw more than one map to capture multiple scenes from a text. Fill in all the details you can identify from the story or poem and add details that you find plausible and that connect to the plot. Write a paragraph that explains how place functions in your story. How is it important? Symbolic? Thematic? You will likely need to be able to scan in your work for this project or submit a photo file.
Choice 3: Draw a Collection of Pieces of Art
Draw a collection of pieces of art and record a talk that reflects upon how the pieces (a minimum of three) connect to the literature. Make sure that you can locate five or more points of connections in each piece of art. (Some ideas: the black and white images represent the piano Sonny played; the cross that has fallen on the floor represents Grace, the child who has died.) The drawings can be realistic or symbolic. You do not need to be an excellent artist to complete.
Part I Many of the elements can be found in various other formats.docx
Part I: Many of the elements can be found in various other formats. Lyrics, movies, and even television shows all spring from the written word.

You will need to be specific, so you are certainly welcome to focus on a specific episode or even a certain line of a song. Please include a link, if possible, so that everyone can get a clear picture of what you're discussing.
Part II: Tell us which novel you have chosen to read for the last half of class. Why did you select it? Based on your initial reading, how does it relate to your life?
Submission Instructions: As with every "main" discussion post, please make comments substantive (in at least 300 words). Use quotations to support your points, but make sure to balance them with your own original ideas.

Complete and submit Part I in your first week of class. In Week Two, complete Parts II & III after viewing a film of your choice from the Film List located under your Week One materials. Submit your completed worksheet in Week Two.
Part I: Beginning to Analyze Film
To compete Part I, choose a movie you have viewed in the past (this does not have to be from the Film List ). Review the following example in the table and then complete your information by inserting the title of your movie and completing the entries for time and place, costume, and set design, writing in complete sentences. For your final entry, describe the atmosphere created by the combination of film elements discussed in Ch. 1 of Film and how they contributed to your liking or disliking of the movie. Submit Part I in Week One.
Movie
Time and Place
Costume
Set Design
Describe the atmosphere created by the combination of film elements and how they contributed to your liking or disliking of the movie.
Example Movie
Alien, 1979
Example Entry
The movie is set in the far-off future. The movie takes place in space on board a spaceship and some action occurs on the surface of a planet.
Example Entry
The characters often appear in grubby, casual clothing and what appear to be worn-out uniforms. Also, they appear in space suits when they journey to the planet.
Example Entry
The sets looks very high-tech and run-down at the same time. In some areas there are very streamlined and modern-looking set pieces, and in other areas pipes or tubing can be seen running along the walls.
Example Entry
The overall atmosphere is gritty and realistic creating the sense that this is a lived-in world. The atmosphere of the planet they visit is creepy because the shapes of the set seems alive. The characters are all acting realistically, especially the character of Lambert who is terrified. The characters fit into this world well, looking sweaty and with no visible make-up. The elements combined contributed to my enjoyment by making the action feel like it was really happening. Also, the alien design was nightmarish.

Scan any headings or subheadings for a sense of progression of the development of key points.
With a pen in hand, begin reading the essay from the beginning, marking in your notes or on the printed page the main ideas as you see them appearing.

Again, be sure to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the poems, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, make sure you maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Imagery: What visual images can you identify in both poems? Comment on the details you notice about objects, places, people, colors, textures and so forth. Which of your other senses are stimulated by the poets’ descriptions?
Figures of Speech: List the specific metaphors, similes, puns and other figures of speech each poet uses and how they contribute to the poem’s overall meaning. (Remember, figurative language is not literal but rather suggestive of something else. For example, the metaphor, “Jack is a pig,” is not a reference to an actual animal with hooves but rather someone named Jack who has pig-like qualities or mannerisms.)
Symbolism: Identify the symbols you notice in each poem. What abstract concepts (e.g., love, death, truth) might the concrete objects (e.g., persons, places, things) suggest?
Language and Word Choice: Every word in a poem has been included (or left out) after much deliberation, as poets choose their words very carefully. Remark on the following in each poem: Does the poet use informal or formal language? Does he or she write in an older dialect or contemporary English? Provide examples.
Tone: What tone does each poet take (e.g., sad, humorous, sarcastic, loving, etc.) toward his or her subject matter?
Themes: What are the main messages of both poems? Give reasons for your answers.
Sound: Read both poems aloud. What do you notice about their rhythms, rhyme schemes and musicality? How does listening to the sound of a poem differ from merely reading it as words on a page?
Final Thoughts: Poetry can enlighten and/or evoke deep emotion in readers. Express the impact each of the two poems you have analyzed for this assignment had on you. What insights did you gain about life or human nature, and what feelings did each piece stir in you? Has your view of poetry changed in any way since reading and analyzing the Phase 3 poems? Explain your answer
Be able to describe the key elements of form, character, voice, symbolism, language, etc., that enable the writer to deliver a key message
Can articulate the (sometimes various) main meaning or key message in a story or poem as the writer intended it, as well as describe the writer’s unique point of view
Can reflect upon how a piece of literature illuminates or enriches one’ own experience

THA200 Performance Critique Two
INTRODUCTION (and clues for getting a good grade)
We want you to know how to apply theater terms to actual plays, so we are asking you to
analyze the production you saw in terms of the theatrical vocabulary we have been
studying. Besides your use of the vocabulary, we are also looking for certain conventions
of formal writing, like in-text citations and MLA-formatted Works Cited page. Lastly,
we want to grade you all fairly, so we are asking you to very precisely follow the
instructions. In fact, that part is so important, that you will get points just for following
the instructions (and get points subtracted for not doing what the instructions require.)
If you want to know exactly how we are grading, and how many points for each section,
check out the rubric on Turnitin before you submit. This is the key that we will use to
grade your critiques.
Again, everything you need to know is in the guidelines below. Read them carefully. If
you have questions, let us know on the Forum site, email us and/or come to office hours.
And, don’t forget to proof-read. Good luck!
Guidelines:
Use the following required format for your critique. Please divide your paper into
sections and use the Roman numerals and titles exactly as they appear below. You
should use the theatrical vocabulary and concepts we are learning from our text in your
answers.
Once you have finished with a paragraph, go back and place in boldface all vocabulary
words or concepts from the chapter that you are featuring. This might be several words
per paragraph, but by all means should include at least one term per answer. Points will
be deducted for reports that use laymen's terms or excessive verbiage to express ideas for
which we have learned vocabulary, for failing to place vocabulary in boldface, or for
reports that boldface common words instead of theatrical vocabulary.
The major objective of this report is to demonstrate your familiarity and facility with
theatrical perspectives and "lingo." Make sure you use our terms and definitions, and
make them easy to find in your report!
Title:
Think of this like a headline. Give your critique a ten word or less title into which you
have put some creative thought. Keep in mind that your title should refer to your thesis
statement (covered in the next section.) Neither your name nor the name of the play is a
title for a report. Center this title at the top of your page, place it in italics and use the
rules for capitalization of titles. Do NOT put it in bold, underline it, or place quotation
marks around it. If you want to give it greater emphasis, place it in a larger type size. Do
not put any other title or heading on your paper.
Bad title: Critique
Another Bad Title: Driving Miss Daisy
Better title: Superstars Plying their Craft: James Earl Jones Drives Miss Angela

Enhance and/or improve critical thinking and media literacy skills by:
1. Developing a clear and concise thesis statement (an argument) in response to the
following question:
Does the film have the power to transform political sensibilities?
2. Writing an outline for a five paragraph analytical essay building on a clear and
concise thesis statement, including topic sentences and secondary supports.
3. Identifying and explaining three scenes from the film text in support of the thesis

.
Note: You are NOT writing a full essay; rather, you are outlining an analytical essay by completing the dialogue in the boxes below.
Writing a Critical Review (analytical) Essay
Every essay that you write for this course must have a clear thesis, placed (perhaps) somewhere near the end of the introductory paragraph. Simply stated, a THESIS (or ARGUMENT) expresses, preferably in a single sentence, the point you want to make about the text that is the subject of your essay.
A
THESIS should be an opinion or interpretation of the text, not merely a fact or observation. The best possible THESIS will answer some specific questions about the text. Very often the THESIS contains an outline of the major points to be covered in the essay. A possible thesis for an essay on character in Perry Henzell’s
The Harder They Come might read somewhat as follows:
The protagonist of THTC is not a hero in the epic sense of the word, but a self-centered young man bred of economic oppression and cultural dependency. The characters in this film have no real psychological depth, but are markers for a society of consumption and momentary glory.
(You might then go on to exemplify from the text and argue in favor or against this interpretation: your essay need not hold to only one perspective.)
What single, clear QUESTION does the above THESIS attempt to answer?
Each essay should be organized into five (5) paragraphs, each based on one of two to four major ideas, which will comprise the BODY of the essay. Each paragraph must have a topic sentence, often (but not always) towards the beginning of the paragraph, which clearly states the ARGUMENT or point to be made in the paragraph. Following the thesis set forth above, the first paragraph might begin with a sentence like “Ivan’s desires and his destiny are signaled in the opening shots of the film, where the fr ...

Pennsylvania v. MarkMark Davis has been charged with Driving W.docx
Pennsylvania v. Mark
Mark Davis has been
charged
with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) for reckless driving, speeding, four counts of felony assault, and one count of involuntary manslaughter as the result of a crash that occurred on a night out with his friends. Mark has been out on bail and pleaded not guilty when he was arraigned. The Judge set a date for Mark's trial and his defense team has been working to collect information about the technology used by the Highway Patrol to reconstruct the crash.
District Attorney O'Malley offered Mark a plea bargain, but Mark chose to take his chances at trial. Mark's attorney, Mr. Chen Long, advised Mark that accepting the plea offer was completely up to Mark, although Mr. Long advised against accepting it because the defense planned to highlight mistakes made by law enforcement during the investigation that could create reasonable doubt in the minds of the jurors.
The trial begins and during the voir dire of potential jurors, several individuals are excused because they have previous knowledge of Mark's case from the media. Two individuals stated that they could not be impartial because they had loved ones
killed
in alcohol related crashes as well. Eventually, two men and ten women were seated in Mark's trial.
District Attorney O'Malley presented the State's case clearly and concisely depicting a night on the town full of heavy drinking, which ultimately resulted in Mark's actions causing the death of one individual and injuring four others. Highway Patrolman Green explained to the jury that he immediately suspected alcohol when he arrived on scene because Mark appeared to be intoxicated when they spoke. Following the Judge ruling that it was admissible and not prejudicial, Sergeant Rodney Monroe, from the Highway Patrol Reconstruction Team presented their reconstruction complete with a high-tech computer animated reenactment of the crash. During the cross examination, Defense Attorney Long challenged the reconstruction because the Defense Crash Reconstruction Expert had discovered errors in the mathematical calculations for vehicle speed. The jury appeared to have liked the reconstruction very much regardless of the errors highlighted by the defense.
Mark was convicted of DWI, four counts of felony assault, and one count of involuntary manslaughter; however, he was acquitted of reckless driving and speeding. The Jury said they could not convict Mark of those offenses because of the mistakes made by law enforcement officers during the investigation.
Because Mark pleads not guilty, but was convicted during trial and had two prior DWI offenses, he was sentenced to ten years in the State Prison. Defense Attorney Long immediately notified the court of an impending appeal that would be filed by the defendant. In a report, using external sources to support your claims, answer the following:
Compare and contrast the roles of the Judge, Jury, District Attorney (Prosecutor), and Defense Attorney. What ar.

per paragraph, but by all means should include at least one term per answer. Points will
be deducted for reports that use laymen's terms or excessive verbiage to express ideas for
which we have learned vocabulary, for failing to place vocabulary in boldface, or for
reports that boldface common words instead of theatrical vocabulary.
The major objective of this report is to demonstrate your familiarity and facility with
theatrical perspectives and "lingo." Make sure you use our terms and definitions, and
make them easy to find in your report!
Title:
Think of this like a headline. Give your critique a ten word or less title into which you
have put some creative thought. Keep in mind that your title should refer to your thesis
statement (covered in the next section.) Neither your name nor the name of the play is a
title for a report. Center this title at the top of your page, place it in italics and use the
rules for capitalization of titles. Do NOT put it in bold, underline it, or place quotation
marks around it. If you want to give it greater emphasis, place it in a larger type size. Do
not put any other title or heading on your paper.

Does the film have the power to transform political sensibilities?
2. Writing an outline for a five paragraph analytical essay building on a clear and
concise thesis statement, including topic sentences and secondary supports.
3. Identifying and explaining three scenes from the film text in support of the thesis
statement/argument.

.
Note: You are NOT writing a full essay; rather, you are outlining an analytical essay by completing the dialogue in the boxes below.
Writing a Critical Review (analytical) Essay
Every essay that you write for this course must have a clear thesis, placed (perhaps) somewhere near the end of the introductory paragraph. Simply stated, a THESIS (or ARGUMENT) expresses, preferably in a single sentence, the point you want to make about the text that is the subject of your essay.
A
THESIS should be an opinion or interpretation of the text, not merely a fact or observation. The best possible THESIS will answer some specific questions about the text. Very often the THESIS contains an outline of the major points to be covered in the essay. A possible thesis for an essay on character in Perry Henzell’s
The Harder They Come might read somewhat as follows:
The protagonist of THTC is not a hero in the epic sense of the word, but a self-centered young man bred of economic oppression and cultural dependency. The characters in this film have no real psychological depth, but are markers for a society of consumption and momentary glory.
(You might then go on to exemplify from the text and argue in favor or against this interpretation: your essay need not hold to only one perspective.)
What single, clear QUESTION does the above THESIS attempt to answer?
Each essay should be organized into five (5) paragraphs, each based on one of two to four major ideas, which will comprise the BODY of the essay. Each paragraph must have a topic sentence, often (but not always) towards the beginning of the paragraph, which clearly states the ARGUMENT or point to be made in the paragraph. Following the thesis set forth above, the first paragraph might begin with a sentence like “Ivan’s desires and his destiny are signaled in the opening shots of the film, where the fr ...

Pennsylvania v. MarkMark Davis has been charged with Driving W.docx
Pennsylvania v. Mark
Mark Davis has been
charged
with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) for reckless driving, speeding, four counts of felony assault, and one count of involuntary manslaughter as the result of a crash that occurred on a night out with his friends. Mark has been out on bail and pleaded not guilty when he was arraigned. The Judge set a date for Mark's trial and his defense team has been working to collect information about the technology used by the Highway Patrol to reconstruct the crash.
District Attorney O'Malley offered Mark a plea bargain, but Mark chose to take his chances at trial. Mark's attorney, Mr. Chen Long, advised Mark that accepting the plea offer was completely up to Mark, although Mr. Long advised against accepting it because the defense planned to highlight mistakes made by law enforcement during the investigation that could create reasonable doubt in the minds of the jurors.
The trial begins and during the voir dire of potential jurors, several individuals are excused because they have previous knowledge of Mark's case from the media. Two individuals stated that they could not be impartial because they had loved ones
killed
in alcohol related crashes as well. Eventually, two men and ten women were seated in Mark's trial.
District Attorney O'Malley presented the State's case clearly and concisely depicting a night on the town full of heavy drinking, which ultimately resulted in Mark's actions causing the death of one individual and injuring four others. Highway Patrolman Green explained to the jury that he immediately suspected alcohol when he arrived on scene because Mark appeared to be intoxicated when they spoke. Following the Judge ruling that it was admissible and not prejudicial, Sergeant Rodney Monroe, from the Highway Patrol Reconstruction Team presented their reconstruction complete with a high-tech computer animated reenactment of the crash. During the cross examination, Defense Attorney Long challenged the reconstruction because the Defense Crash Reconstruction Expert had discovered errors in the mathematical calculations for vehicle speed. The jury appeared to have liked the reconstruction very much regardless of the errors highlighted by the defense.
Mark was convicted of DWI, four counts of felony assault, and one count of involuntary manslaughter; however, he was acquitted of reckless driving and speeding. The Jury said they could not convict Mark of those offenses because of the mistakes made by law enforcement officers during the investigation.
Because Mark pleads not guilty, but was convicted during trial and had two prior DWI offenses, he was sentenced to ten years in the State Prison. Defense Attorney Long immediately notified the court of an impending appeal that would be filed by the defendant. In a report, using external sources to support your claims, answer the following:
Compare and contrast the roles of the Judge, Jury, District Attorney (Prosecutor), and Defense Attorney. What ar.

Partisan considerations have increasingly influenced the selection.docx

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Select a song, movie, or television show and discuss how one of the literary elements contributes to the power of the work. You will need to be specific, so you are certainly welcome to focus on a specific episode or even a certain line of a song. Please include a link, if possible, so that everyone can get a clear picture of what you're discussing. Part II: Select at least three elements you have noticed in the work you are reading. Provide specific cited examples that demonstrate the author's use of that element and explain the overall impact. These is the novel to answer the second question. This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald, available from Literature Project Please make comments substantive (in at least 300 words). Making sure to balance your answers to the separate parts.
