Poetry is a language translated by the reader. Discernable sentiments and messages rise to the top as you may consider and reconsider the more obscure or “hidden” meanings surrounding the words on the page. You have the opportunity in this week’s Discussion to deconstruct the complexity of Shange’s work through the exploration of a character from her poem while exploring qualities and styles of poetry. To prepare for this Discussion: Read and listen to each of the Shange poems linked in this week’s Learning Resources. Listen carefully to the voices and words of the different characters. Choose one of the female characters from the five included poems. For these poems, the characters include: Lady in Yellow, Lady in Orange, Lady in Blue, Lady in Red, and Lady in Purple. What aspects of the character you chose are readily apparent? What are you most curious about regarding this character that is not directly apparent? Consider references to formal and/or non-formal education that you identify in association with the character you chose and/or other characters in these five poems? For example, how does Shange communicate a character’s sense of knowledge of herself or an issue? In what ways do the women educate one another? Review examples of poetry from this course to get a sense of the range of styles of poetry. For example, consider the style of Rita Dove’s poem from Week 4 and review a sample of poems from websites provided in this week’s Optional Resources. With these thoughts in mind: By Day 3 Post a 2- to 3-paragraph description of the character you selected from Shange’s poem, including her emotional and physical self. Explain how this character represents the concepts of expression, perspective, and social change. How is the style of poetry in Shange’s work different from other styles of poetry? By Day 5 Respond to at least one of your colleague’s postings in one or more of the following ways: What insights into education does Shange’s work address? Build on the ideas presented by your peer by expanding on or providing a new example of how concepts of expression, perspective, and social change are apparent through the character chosen. Return to this Discussion in a few days to read the responses to your initial posting. Note what you have learned and/or any insights you have gained as a result of the comments your colleagues made. ...

TP-CASTT Poetry Analysis
T Title Before you even think about reading the poetry or trying to analyze it, speculate on what
you think the poem might be about based upon the title. Often time, authors conceal
meaning and give clues in the title. Jot down what you think this poem will be about
P Paraphrase Before you begin thinking about meaning or trying to analyze the poem, don't overlook the
literal meaning of the poem. One of the biggest problems that students often make in
poetry analysis is jumping to conclusions before understanding what is taking place in the
poem. When you paraphrase a poem, write in your own words exactly what happens in
each line of the poem. Look at the number of sentences in the poem—your paraphrase
should have exactly the same number. This technique is especially helpful for poems
written in the 17th and 19th centuries that use language that is harder to understand.
C Connotation Although this term usually refers solely to the emotional overtones of word choice, for this
chart the term refers to any and all poetic devices, focusing on how such devices contribute
to the meaning, the effect, or both of a poem. You may consider imagery, figures of speech
(simile, metaphor, personification, symbolism, etc), diction, point of view, and sound
devices (alliteration, onomatopoeia, rhythm, and rhyme). It is not necessary that you
identify all the poetic devices within the poem. The ones you do identify should be seen as
a way of supporting the conclusions you are going to draw about the poem.
A Attitude Having examined the poem's devices and clues closely, you are now ready to explore the
multiple attitudes that may be present in the poem. Examination of diction, images, and
details suggests the speaker's attitude and contributes to understanding. Think about the
tone of the poem and how the author has created it. Remember that usually the tone or
attitude cannot be named with a single word - think complexity.
S Shifts Rarely does a poem begin and end the poetic experience in the same place. As is true of
most us, the poet's understanding of an experience is a gradual realization, and the poem is
a reflection of that understanding or insight. Watch for the following keys to shifts:
• key words, (but, yet, however, although)
• punctuation (dashes, periods, colons, ellipsis)
• stanza divisions
• changes in line or stanza length or both
• irony
• changes in sound that may indicate changes in meaning
• changes in diction

Ashford 4: - Week 3 - Discussion 2
Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.
Body Paragraph Workshop
Prepare: First, read the information on the Ashford Writing Center’s web page, Thesis Statements. Then, read the ENG125 Sample Literary Analysis. Pay close attention to the body paragraphs and thesis statements.
Reflect: Compare your working thesis statement to the thesis statement in the Sample Literary Analysis. Does your thesis address relevant points like the example thesis? Then, look at a body paragraph in the Sample Literary Analysis. Compare its construction to a body paragraph in your own paper.
Write: Post your working thesis and your strongest body paragraph into the discussion by Thursday (Day 3) at midnight; do not attach it as a separate document. For the purposes of this discussion only, signify your working thesis by including it in bold type and italicize the topic sentence of your body paragraph. Your body paragraph should include at least three examples of paraphrases and/or quotations (there should be at least one of each) with correct citations in APA format. After the body paragraph, be sure to include reference page citations for the paraphrased and cited sources. Then, in a separate paragraph, answer the following three questions:
· Explain the connection between the topic sentence and your working thesis. Would this connection be clear to someone without your explanation? If so, why? If not, how can you modify your topic sentence and/or thesis statement to make this connection more clear?
· Explain the choice of reference material. How do the references support the topic sentence? Would this connection be clear to someone without your explanation? If so, why? If not, what information should you add to the paragraph to make this connection more clear?
· Does the paragraph contain any unnecessary information? Does everything in it work to support the topic sentence? What information could be added or removed? In essence, you are being asked to evaluate the cohesion of your paragraph.
· Note any other specific challenges faced or successes experienced when writing this paragraph or completing this discussion post.
Respond to Peers: Be sure to respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Sunday at midnight. In your responses, post at least 100 words and evaluate your colleague’s paragraph and/or self‐evaluation. Do you agree with his/her responses to the questions? What else could he/she do to develop stronger body paragraphs?

What is a Close Reading or Explicating a Poem?
To "explicate" comes from a Latin word meaning to unfold.
The purpose of an explication or close reading is to unfold the significance of a poem.
Explication pays close attention to the parts of a poem in order to support a larger argument about its overall impact. For your paper you will want to choose
one
poem.
Your essay should reveal how the parts of the poem, like the parts of a tree, relate and form a totality. Ideally, your paper should reveal some of the wonder and excitement that first inspired you to choose this poem.
You should consider the following questions:
Are you able to provide an argument about what the poem means?
Are you able to provide evidence of how the poetic techniques (tone, speaker, figurative language, form, rhythm, etc.) enhances or creates that meaning? Is the evidence effective or is anything important being left out?
Summarizing
:
Pre-writing
Once you have chosen a poem, paraphrase it (i.e. put it in your own words). You will want to deliberately avoid using figurative language. The purpose of this step is two-fold. First, it ensures that you know what the poem is saying. Second, it allows you to see the moments where the poet uses an intense kind of language.

Poetic Devices and examples
The following are some poetic techniques that you may want to consider in your paper. In your final exam you will want as wide a variety of techniques as possible. In earlier papers you may focus on only the ones covered in the day's readings or that we have covered so far. These questions are only the most basic ones: As we cover more poetic techniques this semester you will want to create your own list of questions that you ask yourself.
1 . Examine the language of the poem. Look up any words that seem important or unclear. How does the text make use of the particular connotations of its words? Are there patterns of word choice (diction), such as language associated with religion or with everyday speech? What images and image patterns are prominent? What are the associations of these images? Do the images take on larger significance as symbols? What other metaphoric language contributes to the poem's meaning? Similes? Puns? Are there larger patterns of allegory or allusion?
2 . How is the author using the form? How does the form suit the poet's intent? What variations are there in meter and rhyme scheme? How do these variations affect the meaning? How does the poet use the break between octave and sestet or quatrains and couplets? What other sound effects do you notice (alliteration, assonance, etc.) and how do they fit the larger effects of the poem? How does the poem use line and stanza breaks? How does it use syntax to emphasize or enact its meaning?

Instructions for Double Entry Journals and Reflections
A dialectical journal is a dialogue between you and the text. You write down passages that engage you, make you curious, or elicit your reflection and analysis. This process is an important strategy in addressing both fiction and nonfiction works. By doing this assignment, you will bring your prior knowledge and experience to the reading, construct meaning from the text, gain insight into the significance of the work, as well as analyze and synthesize elements of the text.
For this journal assignment, please select five passages from each of our assigned readings of The Absolutely TrueDiary of a Part-Time Indian that engage you and that you find significant. Write at least a 2-3 sentence response to the passage you have chosen. For example, analyze the literary significance of a quote such as how it underscores the theme or heightens conflict, or respond to a social issue discussed in the text, or reflect on the consequences of a historical or political event. Always be reflective, thoughtful, and analytical in your observations. Be sure to avoidsuperficial comments such as “this part makes me so sad,” or “Why would this leader do that,” or “Drug abuse is bad.” Also, avoid simply restating or explaining what the passage says. Finally, avoid quoting all your passages in the first few pages of the reading assignment. Bring these journals to class with you upon every assigned reading due date so you can share your entries to your group and to the class. You will be required to turn in these journals for each of the assigned reading deadlines. Print additional copies from Moodle. Next, alongwith your journal, pick one entry and write a one paragraph reflection that explores the possible ideas that you have developed from the reading. You can write about what you feel the quote means, how it is significant to the meaning of the text, and reflect on your own personal experience. Your reflection should be at least one paragraph and around 250 words in length. Your reflections should be typed and in MLA format. These you will turn in with your journals for each reading assignment.

Write a close reading on Buzzards by Jon Loomis (Poem is attached). .docx
Write a close reading on Buzzards by Jon Loomis (Poem is attached). Essay should be 3-4 pages. A close reading is the careful, sustained analysis of any text that focuses on significant details or patterns and that typically examines some aspect of the text’s form, craft, meanings, sound, etc...
In your close reading, you will dissect the poems. Be sure to evaluate not only the meaning of the poems but the strategic decisions made by the poet that enhance or support the overall meaning of the collection.
When writing your close reading, utilize the vocabulary or the “language of poetry” when supporting your claims. For example: Stanzas, Enjambment, End-Stopped, Line Break, Closure, Couplets, Metaphor etc… (A glossary of poetry terms is attached)
Questions to guide you for the essay:
1. What is the theme of the poem? What is the poet trying to communicate? What is the emotional center of the poem?
2. What happens in the poem? Are conflicts or themes introduced? Resolved?
3. Who is the speaker? What is the “point of view” or perspective of the speaker? The perspective might be social, intellectual, political, or even physical.
4. What is the setting? What is the time and place? How does the poet make use of the physical description? Does it create a mood?
5. Are there any key statements or lines that indicate meaning? Look for one key line or symbol; however, the poet may make use of recurring symbols, actions, or motifs.
6. How does the sound or language contribute to the poem’s meaning? Does the rhythm affect what the poet is trying to convey? What type of diction is used? Are there words with double meanings?
7. Is there a historical, ideological, or cultural aspect? Does the poem refer to a world event, period of time, or particular aspect of culture (race, status, gender, class)? What are the basic ideas of the world or human condition or experience (love, hate, orderliness of the universe, etc.)?
8. What qualities or emotions does the poem evoke? How does the poem make you feel?
9. What imagery is used? Does the poet use physical imagery or figures of speech, such as metaphors?

There are many of childrens books out there, but its important t.docx
There are many of children's books out there, but it's important to evaluate children's literature critically before introducing it. Suffice it to say that not all books are created equal. Students read many types of literature throughout school. To appreciate a variety of literature and to complete assignments involving these works, students need to understand how to read critically. Learn how to read literature critically to evaluate and interpret an author’s work.
In literature, readers must pay attention to plot, or the events that take place to create meaning. The plot takes place in the setting, which also adds to the meaning of the story. When reading, ask yourself how the setting adds to the different situations and important events of the story.
In most plots, characters are introduced and usually depict traits of human nature. Characters may represent only a few traits, or they may represent very complex conflicts and emotions. A character can be the narrator, or a person (or more than one person) who tells the story. The narrator or narrators will see events from a certain perspective and have attitudes toward the events and other characters. This is called point of view, and this perspective is a key issue in figuring out the meaning of the work.
Fiction will have figurative language, too, which will be used to describe and understand characters. Fiction attempts to represent reality in some way. Often, reality is represented in different ways through symbols and codes of human meaning and systems. Fiction, for example, may represent every day events and stick closely to place and time. Then again, fiction may represent moral or spiritual aspects through symbols, characters, or improbable events. Authors use fiction to offer a complex understanding of the world. As you read fiction, try to notice the differences and similarities between the world the author creates and the world you inhabit.
Critical thinking in literature also develops a keen awareness of the use of
language, not merely from the aesthetic point of view but keeping in mind today’s
world and its developments, the inevitable political point of view. Students realize that
language is not a neutral phenomenon explaining some already existing reality but
words weave layers of meanings creating and generating their own reality.
Examining Figurative Language
Figurative language, sometimes difficult to teach, can be taught easily with games. Students can learn how to analyze figurative language by middle school, whether it occurs in prose or poetry. Types of figurative language and their definitions.
Alliteration is the repetition of consonants in the first letter of words
Hyperbole is an exaggeration
Idiom means sayings or expressions that have figurative meaning
Imagery involves using one or more of the five senses (sight, touch, taste, hearing, and smell) to describe characters, places or things in literature or poems
Metaphor is the comparison of two unlike thing ...

Discussion - Week 3Elements of the Craft of WritingThe narra.docx
Discussion - Week 3
Elements of the Craft of Writing
The narrator's point of view is the reader's window into the soul of your story. Combined with the tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue, these elements of the craft of writing give your story believability and interest. How can you combine the elements of the craft with the elements of the short story and the techniques of development you learned about in Weeks 1 and 2? In this Discussion, you will understand point of view, tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue and examine how other writers use these elements of craft to improve their work.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the assigned portions of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 7 in Shaping the Story.
Review "Revelation" by Flannery O’Connor, "Mericans” by Sandra Cisneros, and "Why I Like Country Music" by James Alan McPherson in Shaping the Story.
Reflect on the voice in the assigned stories.
How would you describe the voice in each short story?
How do these voices demonstrate what the authors are saying about the main issues of each story?
Reflect on the similarities and differences in the ways that the authors use dialogue to establish character presence.
Consider the issues that each story discusses. How do these issues shape the characters and affect the light in which they are seen at the beginning and the end of the story?
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3
: 2 to 3 paragraphs comparing and contrasting different approaches to two of the following elements in two of the three stories in the Week 3 reading.. Be sure to cite at least two specific examples from your readings.
Point of View
Tone of Voice
Characterization
Dialogue
Be sure to support your ideas by connecting them to the week's Learning Resources, or something you have read, heard, seen, or experienced.
Read
a selection of your colleagues' postings.
Respond by Day 5
to at least one of your colleagues' postings in one or more of the following ways:
Ask a probing question.
Share an insight from having read your colleague's posting.
Offer and support an opinion.
Validate an idea with your own experience.
Make a suggestion.
Expand on your colleague's posting.

Tips for the week 3 discussion (read before you post)
COLLAPSE
Great job so far, class! I've really enjoyed your first two weeks of discussion posts.
Now we will shift our focus to even more tools we can use in our own stories, but first, we will see how they play out in the work of others.
Make sure you do all the readings for the week before posting anything, and also, go through and ask yourselves all the questions (above) from the
"to prepare for the discussion"
section of the instructions. I.
An Explication is a complete and detailed analysis of a work of li.docx
An Explication is a complete and detailed analysis of a work of literature, often proceeding word-by-word or line-by-line through the work. For this paper, you will be writing an explication of a poem. You may choose any of the poems we have read or a song. You may also choose any poem you like from an anthology.
Technical Requirements for Explication:
· The paper must be typed and double-spaced, conforming to proper MLA format.
· The paper must be at least two full (2) pages.
· This is not a research essay; therefore, you will not (and should not) use outside sources.
· Be sure to know when the essay is due. No late papers will be accepted.
In the Explication you will be presenting your "reading" of the poem you have chosen. Such a reading will require you to understand all aspects of the poem and to have a grasp of the meaning of individual parts of the poem in relation to the entire work. You are not, however, striving to be exhaustive in your "explanation" of the poem, but rather you should strive to be selective in considering only those details that are significant to your own thematic understanding of the poem.
Some general questions to consider when writing about Poetry:
1. What does the title contribute to the reader's understanding of the poem?
2. Who is the speaker? Where is the speaker when the poem is happening?
3. Is it possible to determine the speaker's age, sex, sensibilities, level of awareness, and values?
4. What is the situation? What has happened in the past, or what is happening in the present, that has brought about the speech/poem?
5. Is there a specific setting of time and place?
6. Is the speaker addressing anyone in particular?
7. How do you respond to the speaker? Favorably? Negatively? Are there any special circumstances that inform what the speaker says?

CHAPTER 4
ELLEN MACNAMARA ARRIVED AT COLLEGE excited but also anxious. She had grown up in a small town far from the college, had not taken calculus, and had never written more than a five-paragraph essay. So when she got her first college writing assignment—in a political science class, to write a ten-page essay on how the relationship among the three branches of the US government has evolved—she felt a little panic. She had read all her assignments and done some research, and she had even met with her instructor during office hours. She had quite a bit of material. But her first attempts at writing just didn’t sound right. She wasn’t sure what college writing sounded like, but this wasn’t it. Following her instructor’s advice, MacNamara studied several of the political science articles on her course reading list. Compared to her usual writing, they were much more formal, full of complicated sentences. What she eventually came up with wasn’t a particularly good essay (and she knew it), but it served its purpose: it had gotten her thinking about college-level writing. Looking back at the work she had done to get this far, she thought, “Wow, this is almost like learning a new language.” MacNamara had a point. Many students have experiences similar to hers, especially multilingual students who’ve grown up in other cultures. One Romanian student we know put it this way: In my country we care very much about the beauty of what we write. Even with academic and business writing, we try to make our texts poetic in some way. When I got to the U.S.A., I discovered that writing that I thought was beautiful struck my teachers as wordy and off-task. I was surprised about this. This student, like Ellen MacNamara, needed to set about learning a new language—in this case, the language of US academic writing. Habits of Mind for Academic Success Learning the language of US academic writing is key to succeeding in college. Luckily, you don’t need to guess at what strategies will lead to success. In Framework for Success in Postsecondary Writing, researchers and scholars have identified several key habits characteristic of students who do well in college—and beyond. Practice these habits in your coursework and you’ll be “approaching learning from an active stance.” In other words, you’ll be on the path to succeed as an active, engaged writer and thinker. Be curious. Inquire, investigate, poke and pry until you find answers to questions you have or until you discover or create something new. Without curiosity, you’ll miss much of what is really going on around you—in the courses you take and the sources you read. You can practice curiosity by asking questions: Why ar.

Instructions for Double Entry Journals and Reflections
A dialectical journal is a dialogue between you and the text. You write down passages that engage you, make you curious, or elicit your reflection and analysis. This process is an important strategy in addressing both fiction and nonfiction works. By doing this assignment, you will bring your prior knowledge and experience to the reading, construct meaning from the text, gain insight into the significance of the work, as well as analyze and synthesize elements of the text.
For this journal assignment, please select five passages from each of our assigned readings of The Absolutely TrueDiary of a Part-Time Indian that engage you and that you find significant. Write at least a 2-3 sentence response to the passage you have chosen. For example, analyze the literary significance of a quote such as how it underscores the theme or heightens conflict, or respond to a social issue discussed in the text, or reflect on the consequences of a historical or political event. Always be reflective, thoughtful, and analytical in your observations. Be sure to avoidsuperficial comments such as “this part makes me so sad,” or “Why would this leader do that,” or “Drug abuse is bad.” Also, avoid simply restating or explaining what the passage says. Finally, avoid quoting all your passages in the first few pages of the reading assignment. Bring these journals to class with you upon every assigned reading due date so you can share your entries to your group and to the class. You will be required to turn in these journals for each of the assigned reading deadlines. Print additional copies from Moodle. Next, alongwith your journal, pick one entry and write a one paragraph reflection that explores the possible ideas that you have developed from the reading. You can write about what you feel the quote means, how it is significant to the meaning of the text, and reflect on your own personal experience. Your reflection should be at least one paragraph and around 250 words in length. Your reflections should be typed and in MLA format. These you will turn in with your journals for each reading assignment.

Write a close reading on Buzzards by Jon Loomis (Poem is attached). .docx
Write a close reading on Buzzards by Jon Loomis (Poem is attached). Essay should be 3-4 pages. A close reading is the careful, sustained analysis of any text that focuses on significant details or patterns and that typically examines some aspect of the text’s form, craft, meanings, sound, etc...
In your close reading, you will dissect the poems. Be sure to evaluate not only the meaning of the poems but the strategic decisions made by the poet that enhance or support the overall meaning of the collection.
When writing your close reading, utilize the vocabulary or the “language of poetry” when supporting your claims. For example: Stanzas, Enjambment, End-Stopped, Line Break, Closure, Couplets, Metaphor etc… (A glossary of poetry terms is attached)
Questions to guide you for the essay:
1. What is the theme of the poem? What is the poet trying to communicate? What is the emotional center of the poem?
2. What happens in the poem? Are conflicts or themes introduced? Resolved?
3. Who is the speaker? What is the “point of view” or perspective of the speaker? The perspective might be social, intellectual, political, or even physical.
4. What is the setting? What is the time and place? How does the poet make use of the physical description? Does it create a mood?
5. Are there any key statements or lines that indicate meaning? Look for one key line or symbol; however, the poet may make use of recurring symbols, actions, or motifs.
6. How does the sound or language contribute to the poem’s meaning? Does the rhythm affect what the poet is trying to convey? What type of diction is used? Are there words with double meanings?
7. Is there a historical, ideological, or cultural aspect? Does the poem refer to a world event, period of time, or particular aspect of culture (race, status, gender, class)? What are the basic ideas of the world or human condition or experience (love, hate, orderliness of the universe, etc.)?
8. What qualities or emotions does the poem evoke? How does the poem make you feel?
9. What imagery is used? Does the poet use physical imagery or figures of speech, such as metaphors?

There are many of childrens books out there, but its important t.docx
There are many of children's books out there, but it's important to evaluate children's literature critically before introducing it. Suffice it to say that not all books are created equal. Students read many types of literature throughout school. To appreciate a variety of literature and to complete assignments involving these works, students need to understand how to read critically. Learn how to read literature critically to evaluate and interpret an author’s work.
In literature, readers must pay attention to plot, or the events that take place to create meaning. The plot takes place in the setting, which also adds to the meaning of the story. When reading, ask yourself how the setting adds to the different situations and important events of the story.
In most plots, characters are introduced and usually depict traits of human nature. Characters may represent only a few traits, or they may represent very complex conflicts and emotions. A character can be the narrator, or a person (or more than one person) who tells the story. The narrator or narrators will see events from a certain perspective and have attitudes toward the events and other characters. This is called point of view, and this perspective is a key issue in figuring out the meaning of the work.
Fiction will have figurative language, too, which will be used to describe and understand characters. Fiction attempts to represent reality in some way. Often, reality is represented in different ways through symbols and codes of human meaning and systems. Fiction, for example, may represent every day events and stick closely to place and time. Then again, fiction may represent moral or spiritual aspects through symbols, characters, or improbable events. Authors use fiction to offer a complex understanding of the world. As you read fiction, try to notice the differences and similarities between the world the author creates and the world you inhabit.
Critical thinking in literature also develops a keen awareness of the use of
language, not merely from the aesthetic point of view but keeping in mind today’s
world and its developments, the inevitable political point of view. Students realize that
language is not a neutral phenomenon explaining some already existing reality but
words weave layers of meanings creating and generating their own reality.
Examining Figurative Language
Figurative language, sometimes difficult to teach, can be taught easily with games. Students can learn how to analyze figurative language by middle school, whether it occurs in prose or poetry. Types of figurative language and their definitions.
Alliteration is the repetition of consonants in the first letter of words
Hyperbole is an exaggeration
Idiom means sayings or expressions that have figurative meaning
Imagery involves using one or more of the five senses (sight, touch, taste, hearing, and smell) to describe characters, places or things in literature or poems
Metaphor is the comparison of two unlike thing ...

Discussion - Week 3Elements of the Craft of WritingThe narra.docx
Discussion - Week 3
Elements of the Craft of Writing
The narrator's point of view is the reader's window into the soul of your story. Combined with the tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue, these elements of the craft of writing give your story believability and interest. How can you combine the elements of the craft with the elements of the short story and the techniques of development you learned about in Weeks 1 and 2? In this Discussion, you will understand point of view, tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue and examine how other writers use these elements of craft to improve their work.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the assigned portions of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 7 in Shaping the Story.
Review "Revelation" by Flannery O’Connor, "Mericans” by Sandra Cisneros, and "Why I Like Country Music" by James Alan McPherson in Shaping the Story.
Reflect on the voice in the assigned stories.
How would you describe the voice in each short story?
How do these voices demonstrate what the authors are saying about the main issues of each story?
Reflect on the similarities and differences in the ways that the authors use dialogue to establish character presence.
Consider the issues that each story discusses. How do these issues shape the characters and affect the light in which they are seen at the beginning and the end of the story?
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3
: 2 to 3 paragraphs comparing and contrasting different approaches to two of the following elements in two of the three stories in the Week 3 reading.. Be sure to cite at least two specific examples from your readings.
Point of View
Tone of Voice
Characterization
Dialogue
Be sure to support your ideas by connecting them to the week's Learning Resources, or something you have read, heard, seen, or experienced.
Read
a selection of your colleagues' postings.
Respond by Day 5
to at least one of your colleagues' postings in one or more of the following ways:
Ask a probing question.
Share an insight from having read your colleague's posting.
Offer and support an opinion.
Validate an idea with your own experience.
Make a suggestion.
Expand on your colleague's posting.

Tips for the week 3 discussion (read before you post)
COLLAPSE
Great job so far, class! I've really enjoyed your first two weeks of discussion posts.
Now we will shift our focus to even more tools we can use in our own stories, but first, we will see how they play out in the work of others.
Make sure you do all the readings for the week before posting anything, and also, go through and ask yourselves all the questions (above) from the
"to prepare for the discussion"
section of the instructions. I.
An Explication is a complete and detailed analysis of a work of li.docx
An Explication is a complete and detailed analysis of a work of literature, often proceeding word-by-word or line-by-line through the work. For this paper, you will be writing an explication of a poem. You may choose any of the poems we have read or a song. You may also choose any poem you like from an anthology.
Technical Requirements for Explication:
· The paper must be typed and double-spaced, conforming to proper MLA format.
· The paper must be at least two full (2) pages.
· This is not a research essay; therefore, you will not (and should not) use outside sources.
· Be sure to know when the essay is due. No late papers will be accepted.
In the Explication you will be presenting your "reading" of the poem you have chosen. Such a reading will require you to understand all aspects of the poem and to have a grasp of the meaning of individual parts of the poem in relation to the entire work. You are not, however, striving to be exhaustive in your "explanation" of the poem, but rather you should strive to be selective in considering only those details that are significant to your own thematic understanding of the poem.
Some general questions to consider when writing about Poetry:
1. What does the title contribute to the reader's understanding of the poem?
2. Who is the speaker? Where is the speaker when the poem is happening?
3. Is it possible to determine the speaker's age, sex, sensibilities, level of awareness, and values?
4. What is the situation? What has happened in the past, or what is happening in the present, that has brought about the speech/poem?
5. Is there a specific setting of time and place?
6. Is the speaker addressing anyone in particular?
7. How do you respond to the speaker? Favorably? Negatively? Are there any special circumstances that inform what the speaker says?
8. Does reading the poem aloud help you to understand it better?
9. Does a paraphrase reveal the basic purpose of the poem?
10. What is the theme/meaning of the poem? Is the theme of the poem presented directly or indirectly? What detials make possible the formulation of the main idea?
11. Do any allusions enrich the poem's meaning? What references need explaining? How does an explanation assist in the understanding of the poem?
12. What difficult, special, or unusual words does the poem contain? How does the diction reveal meaning? Are any words repeated? do any carry evocative connotative meanings? Are there any puns or other forms of verbal wit?
13. Are figures of speech used? How does the figurative language contribute to the poem's vividness and meaning?
14. Do any objects, persons, places, events, or actions have allegorical or symbolic meanings? What other details in the poem support your interpretation?
15. Is irony used? Are there any examples of situational irongy, verbal irony, or dramatic irony? Is understatement or paradox used?
16. What is the tone of the poem? Is the tone consistent?
17. Does the poem use onomatopoeia, assonance, consonance, or al.

About the Topic
Sources Of Genetic Variability
Genetic variations provide the raw material for
evolution
. These variations come from two sources:1.
mutations
that produce different
alleles
, and 2. sexual reproduction, in which alleles from parents segregate and recombine in offspring.
Evolution
Biological evolution involves genetic changes in a group of organisms. These changes occur on two levels:
macroevolution
(the grand scale), and
microevolution
(the small scale). On the "macro" scale of evolution, different species arise, live for a while, and then pass into extinction as new species arise to replace them (over thousands or millions of years). Microevolution involves small-scale changes within a single species. This occurs as populations respond to their own unique circumstances over a period of a few generations. Given enough time, microevolution can lead to macroevolution.
Populations Evolve, Not Individuals
Because an individual's genes are determined at conception, individuals can't evolve. But individuals are part of a
population
that may change over time. Some individuals have
genotypes
that are preferentially suited for survival. These individuals tend to produce more offspring. Thus, a larger proportion of their alleles is passed down to succeeding generations. Over time, the proportion of "good" alleles within the population increases and the "less good" alleles decrease. (
However, note that some traits are neither “good” or “bad”.

Biodiversity hotspots are one conservation strategy used to direct f.docx
Biodiversity hotspots are one conservation strategy used to direct funds to areas in the globe that have the highest biodiversity and are most threatened. To qualify as a biodiversity hotspot an area must have more than 1,500 endemic plant species (0.5% of the world's total of 300,000) AND have experienced a 70% loss of habitat.
1) Each person will select a biodiversity hotspot (sign list in class) and use the Conservation Internationl Biodiversity Hotspots website as a key starting resource to find the following information to bring into class to
write on the board and share orally. USE THE WEBSITES POSTED UNDER ASSIGNMENTS/CH 1&2/HOTSPOTS to get started
:
a)
Overview
: Vital Signs Table: Total Endemic Plants, Human Population Density (
can copy and paste the table, but you must use an in-text citation
)
b)
Species
: Diversity and Endemism Table: Total Endemic Species for Plants, Mammals, Birds, Reptile, Amphibian and Fish (
copy and paste the table, but you must use an in-text citation)
c)
Threats
: List top three threats with
evidence
of why and how they impact the hotspot
d)
Projects
: What will take you the most time to find and evaluate is specific information about conservation actions in the hotspot region. You will want to include
who
(government, nonprofit, international agency) is
doing
what
(fence, antipoaching squad, protected area, farming project) at what
cost
(dollars) with
what measure of success
(#species saved over time, increase population size over time, area protected increased, % invasives reduced) and then
analyze if this is what is needed based
on the human impact and biodiversity loss data you have collected.
2) Your research results with
in-text citations
AND your list of at least
10 scientific references

Bill of RightsWhen the Constitution was completed in the summer of.docx
Bill of Rights
When the Constitution was completed in the summer of 1787, approval by representatives from nine of the thirteen states was needed for it to become the nation’s law. The issue of individual rights was managed—though this, too, created conflict among the Framers—with the addition of the Bill of Rights. Change was written into the supreme law of the land; since then, legal institutionalization of changes has occurred. Since the Constitution’s adoption, change has taken place through the amendment process identified in the Constitution. Change has also occurred under the direction of the branches of government established in the Constitution: the executive, the legislature, and the judiciary.
Research
The Bill of Rights is the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Review the Bill of Rights in your textbook and select one of the first ten amendments to research more thoroughly. Using the Argosy University online library resources, select at least three peer-reviewed articles about the amendment you have selected. Look specifically for articles that focus on current events or controversies related to the amendment and be prepared to summarize the content of each article.

Biblical Worldview Essay InstructionsRationale for the Biblical .docx
Biblical Worldview Essay Instructions
Rationale for the Biblical Worldview Essay
Every person has a worldview whether he realizes it or not. What is a worldview? James W. Sire defines a worldview as:
[A] commitment, a fundamental orientation of the heart, that can be expressed as a story or in a set of presuppositions (assumptions which may be true, partially true or entirely false) that we hold (consciously or subconsciously, consistently or inconsistently) about the basic constitution of reality, and that provides the foundation on which we live and move and have our being.
[1]
Stated more succinctly, "…[A] worldview is simply the total set of beliefs that a person has about the biggest questions in life." F. Leroy Forlines describes such questions as the "inescapable questions of life." Life's inescapable questions include the following: "Is there a God? If so, what is He like? How can I know Him? Who am I? Where am I? How can I tell right from wrong? Is there life after death? What should I and what can I do about guilt? How can I deal with my inner pain?" Life's biggest, inescapable questions relate to whether there is a God, human origins, identity, purpose, and the hereafter, just to mention a few.
Satisfying answers to the "inescapable questions of life" are provided by the Holy Scriptures. The Holy Scriptures, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, form the starting point and foundation for the biblical worldview. More specifically related to our purposes, the apostle Paul reflects several components of the biblical worldview in his letter to the Romans.
The apostle Paul authored Romans toward the end of his third missionary journey, about 57 A.D. He addressed this letter specifically to the Christians in Rome. At the time the church in Rome consisted of Jewish and Gentile believers, with Gentile Christians in the majority. Paul wrote to the Christians in Rome in order to address specific concerns and challenges they were facing. While Romans was an occasional letter (not a systematic theology), Paul presents the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a very systematic fashion. The Gospel is actually the overarching theme of Romans as Paul spells this out in his programmatic statement in 1:16–17. As the systematic presentation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Romans is foundational to the biblical/Christian worldview.
Recognizing that Romans is not a systematic theology and does not contain all the essential truths that are relevant to a worldview per se, the apostle Paul articulates truths that are foundational to the biblical worldview. In Romans 1–8, Paul addresses certain components of a worldview that relate to the natural world, human identity, human relationships, and culture.
In a 750–1000-word essay, describe what Romans 1–8 teaches regarding (1)the natural world, (2)human identity,(3) human relationships, and (4) culture. Furthermore, (5)explain how this teaching of these topics affects your worldview. Make sure that you addr.

Even when volunteers come to an organization with a name that is recognized, community connections, and years of professional expertise and experience, they still require an understanding of the background, purpose, and procedures of the specific organization to which they plan to dedicate their time. Volunteer orientation serves this purpose. Volunteer training goes further. Training introduces and teaches the specific skills and expertise needed to carry out the volunteers’ roles.

Benefits of a Diverse Workforce
Communication is of utmost importance in diverse teams. How a manager approaches a situation can determine the future direction of teamwork and ultimately the level of success achieved. When communicating with diverse teams, whether verbally, via e-mail, or in writing, managers need to consider the potential reactions as well as the intention of the message.
and the discussion of possible HR actions. Based on the review, develop a FEW page memo to the project teams addressing the following:
Remind both managers and employees of the benefits of a culturally diverse workgroup.
Make recommendations on how to avoid scheduling issues due to the religious observance.
Explain how you arrived at your decision using relevant academic references.
Justify your suggestions by using empirical evidence and reference to any applicable laws.

*Explain what motivation is and why managers need to be concerned about it.
*Explain what leadership is, when leaders are effective and ineffective, and the sources of power that enable managers to be effective leaders.
*Explain how different elements of group dynamics influence the functioning and effectiveness of groups and teams.
*Explain why strategic human resource management can help an organization gain a competitive advantage.
Below is all of these questions answered by different classmates in my class. Please use their answers as a base to formulate your own...
Motivation is the psychological forces that determine the direction of a person’s behavior in an organization, a person level of effort and a person level of persistence in the face of obstacles. Managers should be concerned with motivation because it explains why people behave the way they do. It can explain why a waiter is mean or nice, or why the customer service representative you are dealing with is helpful and understanding or rude and unhelpful.
Leadership is the process by which a person exerts influence over other people and inspires, motivates, and directs their activities, to help achieve group or organizational goal. Leaders are affective when they can unite a group to achieve a common goal. There are five types of power that a leader must balance. Legitimate power: the authority that a manager has by virtue of their position in an organizations hierarch. Reward power: the ability of a manager to give or withhold tangible and intangible rewards. Coercive power: the ability of a manager to punish others. Expert power: power that is based on the special knowledge, skills, and expertise that a leader possesses. Referent power: power that comes from subordinates’ and coworkers’ respect, admiration, and loyalty.
There are five key elements of group dynamics. Group size: the number of members in a group can be an important determinant of members’ motivation, commitment and group performance. Group roles: a set of behaviors and task that a member of a group is expected to perform because of his or her position in the group. Group leadership: leadership is a key ingredient for high- performing groups, teams, and organizations. Group development over time: it sometimes takes a self-managed team two or three years to perform up to it true capabilities. Group norms: shared guidelines or rules for behavior that most group member follow. Group cohesivenes.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Poetry is a language translated by the reader. Discernable sentime
- 1. Poetry is a language translated by the reader. Discernable sentiments and messages rise to the top as you may consider and reconsider the more obscure or “hidden” meanings surrounding the words on the page. You have the opportunity in this week’s Discussion to deconstruct the complexity of Shange’s work through the exploration of a character from her poem while exploring qualities and styles of poetry. To prepare for this Discussion: Read and listen to each of the Shange poems linked in this week’s Learning Resources. Listen carefully to the voices and words of the different characters. Choose one of the female characters from the five included poems. For these poems, the characters include: Lady in Yellow, Lady in Orange, Lady in Blue, Lady in Red, and Lady in Purple. What aspects of the character you chose are readily apparent? What are you most curious about regarding this character that is not directly apparent? Consider references to formal and/or non-formal education that you identify in association with the character you chose and/or other characters in these five poems? For example, how does Shange communicate a character’s sense of knowledge of herself or an issue? In what ways do the women educate one another? Review examples of poetry from this course to get a sense of the range of styles of poetry. For example, consider the style of Rita Dove’s poem from Week 4 and review a sample of poems from websites provided in this
- 2. week’s Optional Resources. With these thoughts in mind: By Day 3 Post a 2- to 3-paragraph description of the character you selected from Shange’s poem, including her emotional and physical self. Explain how this character represents the concepts of expression, perspective, and social change. How is the style of poetry in Shange’s work different from other styles of poetry? By Day 5 Respond to at least one of your colleague’s postings in one or more of the following ways: What insights into education does Shange’s work address? Build on the ideas presented by your peer by expanding on or providing a new example of how concepts of expression, perspective, and social change are apparent through the character chosen. Return to this Discussion in a few days to read the responses to your initial posting. Note what you have learned and/or any insights
- 3. you have gained as a result of the comments your colleagues made.
