This document outlines an assignment for a course on Theories of Architecture and Urbanism. Students are required to submit three synopses in the form of reaction papers to selected readings over the course of the semester. The reaction papers should analyze and discuss the key points of the readings, identify the authors' arguments, and provide the students' perspectives and insights. Guidelines are provided on writing the reaction papers, including formatting, submitting by the due date, and avoiding plagiarism. Assessment will be based on identifying key points, use of terminology, clarity of opinions, and logical progression. (151 words)

Thesis/Project Guidelines
The student who plans to graduate in the Spring semester, should begin thinking about the Master’s Project topic as early as possible, but no later than in early Fall of the preceding year. The guidelines below provide basic information on writing a Master’s Project paper. The Chair of the student’s Master’s Committee may have different expectations than the ones spelled out below. The student is responsible for finding out the expectations of his/her Chair at the outset.
Students who wish to write a Master’s Thesis should obtain the specific format guidelines for writing a thesis from the University’s Thesis office. That said, the content and structure of a Master’s Thesis is substantially the same as a Project, so the information below is relevant for writing Master’s Theses as well.
I. Forming the Master’s Committee
The Master’s Committee consists of the Chair and two additional faculty members. The student is responsible for approaching faculty members to form the Master’s Committee, starting with contacting the Chair of the Committee.
It is strongly advisable that the Chair be a faculty member whose course directly pertains to the Master’s project topic and whose course the student has successfully completed. In addition, it would be helpful if the student has taken a 6000-level course with one or both of the committee members and/or they are instructors of fields that closely relate to the Project topic. This committee composition would best support the successful completion of the Project, since the student will then have strong foundation in the relevant field(s) and will be prepared to do research on the specific topic. If the Project topic does not fall in the subjects studied in one of the courses taken by the student, then the student will have to first become proficient in the general field that pertains to the specific topic and then review the narrow literature on the specific question. As a result, this latter approach is more time consuming and difficult to undertake. By the same token, a faculty member may be reluctant to chair such a Master’s Project.
II. Basic Features of a Master’s Project
The Master’s Project is a research paper that is more substantial than a term paper for a 6000- level course. Depending on the topic and methodology, it can range from 25 pages to 75 pages, exclusive of any tables or figures and the list of references. Projects that entail extension of a mathematical model will tend to be shorter than those that rely on applied econometrics or descriptive statistical analysis, or the Projects that rely on interpretive methodologies (for example, history of thought in any field).
The Master’s Project goes beyond a literature review on the narrow topic in a field. It will have to build upon and extend the relevant literature in the field. The relevant literature is likely to be covered in one or more of the 6000-level courses in the Master’s program. The project
should d ...

HW: Thesis Statement Prompt from Chapter One of Night
This assignment is due on February 5, 2018. You must compose your own work; do not copy another’s work.
Directions:
1. Read Chapter One of Night if you have not done so.
2. CHOOSE ONE prompt from the three prompts provided. Prompts One and Two are expository, and Prompt Three is a literary analysis prompt. The literary analysis prompt is an “uphill challenge”--go for it! :-)
3. Compose ONLY: the introductory paragraph and thesis statement. Your introductory paragraph should have a narrative hook and one short piece of background information. THE FINAL SENTENCE OF YOUR INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH SHOULD BE YOUR THESIS STATEMENT. An outline of your paragraph would look like this:
I. Introduction
A. Narrative hook
B. Background information
C. Thesis statement
For instance:
Many teenagers spend a lot of time contemplating what they want to do when they
graduate from high school. I am fortunate in that I already know; I decided to become a
veterinarian when I was two or three years old. A veterinarian practices veterinary medicine, or medicine “of, relating to, practicing, or being the science and art of prevention, cure, or alleviation of disease and injury in animals and especially domestic animals” (“veterinary”). Just like humans, animals need people to treat them with the respect and dignity they deserve, and I want to be one of those people. To prepare for my future as a veterinarian, I plan to attend college and veterinary school, learn about all species of animals, and learn the skills I need to help animals.
Your thesis statement must have one main point and two supporting points.
Prompt One:
Imagine that you are a townsperson listening to Moishe the Beadle’s story. Explain why you believe Moishe’s story to be false.
Prompt Two:
There were several opportunities for Wiesel and his family to escape before they were sent to Auschwitz. Explain what these opportunities were, and explain why the family did not take advantage of them.
Prompt Three:
Define irony, and discuss Wiesel’s use of irony in the first chapter of Night. What message is he trying to convey about the Jews’ attitude and how does his use of irony help him get his message across?

ThesisProject GuidelinesThe student who plans to graduate in GrazynaBroyles24
Thesis/Project Guidelines
The student who plans to graduate in the Spring semester, should begin thinking about the Master’s Project topic as early as possible, but no later than in early Fall of the preceding year. The guidelines below provide basic information on writing a Master’s Project paper. The Chair of the student’s Master’s Committee may have different expectations than the ones spelled out below. The student is responsible for finding out the expectations of his/her Chair at the outset.
Students who wish to write a Master’s Thesis should obtain the specific format guidelines for writing a thesis from the University’s Thesis office. That said, the content and structure of a Master’s Thesis is substantially the same as a Project, so the information below is relevant for writing Master’s Theses as well.
I. Forming the Master’s Committee
The Master’s Committee consists of the Chair and two additional faculty members. The student is responsible for approaching faculty members to form the Master’s Committee, starting with contacting the Chair of the Committee.
It is strongly advisable that the Chair be a faculty member whose course directly pertains to the Master’s project topic and whose course the student has successfully completed. In addition, it would be helpful if the student has taken a 6000-level course with one or both of the committee members and/or they are instructors of fields that closely relate to the Project topic. This committee composition would best support the successful completion of the Project, since the student will then have strong foundation in the relevant field(s) and will be prepared to do research on the specific topic. If the Project topic does not fall in the subjects studied in one of the courses taken by the student, then the student will have to first become proficient in the general field that pertains to the specific topic and then review the narrow literature on the specific question. As a result, this latter approach is more time consuming and difficult to undertake. By the same token, a faculty member may be reluctant to chair such a Master’s Project.
II. Basic Features of a Master’s Project
The Master’s Project is a research paper that is more substantial than a term paper for a 6000- level course. Depending on the topic and methodology, it can range from 25 pages to 75 pages, exclusive of any tables or figures and the list of references. Projects that entail extension of a mathematical model will tend to be shorter than those that rely on applied econometrics or descriptive statistical analysis, or the Projects that rely on interpretive methodologies (for example, history of thought in any field).
The Master’s Project goes beyond a literature review on the narrow topic in a field. It will have to build upon and extend the relevant literature in the field. The relevant literature is likely to be covered in one or more of the 6000-level courses in the Master’s program. The project
should d ...

This assignment is due on February 5, 2018. You must compose your own work; do not copy another’s work.
Directions:
1. Read Chapter One of Night if you have not done so.
2. CHOOSE ONE prompt from the three prompts provided. Prompts One and Two are expository, and Prompt Three is a literary analysis prompt. The literary analysis prompt is an “uphill challenge”--go for it! :-)
3. Compose ONLY: the introductory paragraph and thesis statement. Your introductory paragraph should have a narrative hook and one short piece of background information. THE FINAL SENTENCE OF YOUR INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH SHOULD BE YOUR THESIS STATEMENT. An outline of your paragraph would look like this:
I. Introduction
A. Narrative hook
B. Background information
C. Thesis statement
For instance:
Many teenagers spend a lot of time contemplating what they want to do when they
graduate from high school. I am fortunate in that I already know; I decided to become a
veterinarian when I was two or three years old. A veterinarian practices veterinary medicine, or medicine “of, relating to, practicing, or being the science and art of prevention, cure, or alleviation of disease and injury in animals and especially domestic animals” (“veterinary”). Just like humans, animals need people to treat them with the respect and dignity they deserve, and I want to be one of those people. To prepare for my future as a veterinarian, I plan to attend college and veterinary school, learn about all species of animals, and learn the skills I need to help animals.
Your thesis statement must have one main point and two supporting points.

Imagine that you are a townsperson listening to Moishe the Beadle’s story. Explain why you believe Moishe’s story to be false.
Prompt Two:
There were several opportunities for Wiesel and his family to escape before they were sent to Auschwitz. Explain what these opportunities were, and explain why the family did not take advantage of them.
Prompt Three:
Define irony, and discuss Wiesel’s use of irony in the first chapter of Night. What message is he trying to convey about the Jews’ attitude and how does his use of irony help him get his message across?

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.
