Section Four: Answer all questions thoroughly and hand-write on loose-leaf paper.
1. Describe the atmosphere at Buna. What does Wiesel imply by “well-dressed”?
2. Why do the officers take an interest in the young boys as they come into the camp? Why
do you think Wiesel allow the reader to make assumptions before relaying the truth? How
does the parenthetical insertion add to the fact that
Night
is a memoir rather than a piece
of fiction?
3. Explain the conflict that ensues over Eliezer’s shoes. How does the conflict negate everything the men and boys have been told about surviving in the concentration camps?
4. How is the situation with the shoes ironic?
5. How is animal imagery used in the first few pages of Section Four? What is the effect of
this imagery?
6. Who is Juliek? How does Eliezer meet him? Describe the relationship between them.
7. Throughout the memoir Eliezer and the other prisoners are treated like animals. Cite an
example of another image that Wiesel uses to describe how they were treated.
8. Who does Eliezer become friends with at the camp? What connection does he find between their lives? Explain whether or not you believe it is impossible to have true friends in the concentration camps.
9. Who is Alphonse? Explain the benefit of having Alphonse as a leader of the block. Why
do you think Wiesel does not spend much time talking about Alphonse?
10. Why is Eliezer summoned to the dentist? How does Eliezer describe the dentist? What is
ironic about his appearance?
11. How does Eliezer escape the dentist the first time? What does the dentist tell him?
12. How does Eliezer escape the dentist permanently? Why do you think Elie Wiesel includes
the account of the dentist in his memoir when he does not lose his teeth to the dentist?
13. Explain how the following scene functions as foreshadowing: “In fact, I was pleased with what was happening to him: my gold crown was safe. It could be useful to me one day, to buy something, some bread or even time to live.”
14. After reading about the interchange between Eliezer and the young French woman, characterize the young woman.
15. In the memoir, a majority of the animal imagery is associated with the Jews. How does
Wiesel alter the animal imagery in the description of Eliezer’s beating? Explain the purpose
behind the change in images.
16. How does Wiesel interrupt the narration in the passage that begins with, “MANY YEARS
LATER, in Paris, I sat in the Métro ...”? What is the effect of the interruption?
17. Cite the simile that Eliezer uses when describing the beating that his father receives. What
image does it create for the reader?
18. Describe Eliezer’s internal conflict while he watches his father getting beaten.
19. Read the confrontation between Franek and Eliezer. Using examples from the text, explain how Franek is different from the dentist who first tried to take Eliezer’s tooth and how

“Seeing” Social Movements
An important component of studying social justice movements is seeing their activities unfold. In this regard one can explore their dynamics and outcomes, analyze their tactics, understand social movement organizations and participants, and get at the reasons for their mobilization and beliefs. This assignment is an effort to get you “into the field” to enable you to “see” social movement activities. Students can do this by critically evaluating a film for its significance to the study of social justice movements, be it in its depiction of a social movement or the voice that it gives to a movement.
Sociologically analyzing a film
Film is not just a component of popular culture or key form of mass media; it is also an important voice that brings relevance to numerous political issues and debates occurring in society. In addition it is a viable means with which to observe social movement activity when it is otherwise unobservable as when it occurred in the past, or in places other than in our own backyard. With this option, you are to observe a social movement depicted in film as if you were “in the field” and analyze it using the theoretical perspectives, ideas, and other tools you have developed in sociology.
1. Choose your film.
I have attached a list of potential films from which you can select.
See the appendix to this document. I encourage you to select something that reflects your interest in a particular social movement. If you have questions about any of these please let me know. Also,
this list is by no means exhaustive and I am always searching for additional options, so if you are interested in viewing something not on the list or give me ideas for should be on the list, please let me know
.
******2. When you have chosen your film, submit the film title, year, and the reason you believe it to be appropriate for the issue you are examining.
The rest of the final paper is due during week 8
3. The details and write-up
As when observing a real social justice movement, you want to watch the film and account for its events as if you were trapped in celluloid with its actors and witnessing it as if reality. Thus, you must try to become engulfed in the activities, characters, images, and themes of the film so as to analyze the events from a sociological perspective.
In analyzing the film you want to provide not only description of events and background of the social movement/protest activities but also must analyze it by considering the following guidelines and questions as appropriate:
A.
Can the actions depicted in the film be considered a social movement? How does it fit the definition and conceptualization of social justice movements that we have examined? Discuss, citing what evidence of ideology, organization, and tactics is present in the protest activities.
Make your argument citing clear evidence from the film and tying it to course readings and the class.
B.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
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.

young French woman, characterize the young woman.

to create through these images.
23. Explain the conflict that Eliezer faces as he is watching the
Buna factory being bombed.
4. 24. Explain the significance of the following lines by first
explaining the situation in which
the line is contextualized. “We were not afraid. And yet, if a
bomb had fallen on the blocks, it would have claimed hundreds
of inmates’ lives. But we no longer feared death, in any event
not this particular death. Every bomb that hit filled us with joy,
gave us renewed confidence.”
