Following the Topic Selection Guidelines below, choose an argumentat.docx
Following the Topic Selection Guidelines below, choose an argumentative topic to research. This will be your topic throughout the entire course, so the activities required for this assignment will provide the foundation for your future Touchstones. The topic for an argumentative research paper must be a debatable topic, meaning that it involves conflicting viewpoints. Additionally, it cannot be a topic that is already decided or agreed upon by most of society. You will need to take a firm position on the topic and use evidence and logic to support the position. Touchstone 1.2 includes a research question, a working thesis, a detailed outline, and a reflection on this pre-writing process.
A. Topic Selection Guidelines
DIRECTIONS:
You may choose any topic you wish as long as the topic has two clear sides and is not agreed upon by most of society. Your topic should be current, appropriate for an academic context and should have a focus suitable for a 6-8 page essay.
B. Research Guidelines
DIRECTIONS:
Refer to the list below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.
1. Research Question and Working Thesis
Keep in mind:
The research question and working thesis are the driving force behind your research and eventual argument.
❒ Your research question should be a single sentence, framed as a question.
❒ Your working thesis should be a single focused sentence, framed as a statement that takes a clear position on the research question.
❒ Include your research question followed by your working thesis.
2. Detailed Outline
Keep in mind:
Your detailed outline provides a map of the argumentative research essay that you will write, including your key claims and the sources that support them. You may not have all your sources yet, and that is fine. The outline is a way to organize your essay and determine which areas (e.g. your sub-points) will require researched evidence as support.
❒ Headings: one for each paragraph with a brief label of the paragraph’s controlling idea(s); at least 7 body paragraphs, an introduction, and a conclusion
❒ Introduction includes your working thesis.
❒ Body paragraphs should each have their own unique title and key points.
❒ Conclusion includes notes on your final thoughts.
❒ Subheadings: two to five for each paragraph, below each heading, indicating key points that support the controlling idea
❒ Sources: one to three for each subheading, as relevant, indicating the support for the key point
❒ For each source, include the author’s name and the idea or information relevant to your argument (e.g. “Lappé on mono-cropping corn/soy and production”).
3. Reflection
❒ Have you displayed a clear understanding of the research activities?
❒ Have you answered all reflection questions thoughtfully and included insights, observations, and/or examples in all responses?
❒ Are your answers included on a separate page below the main assignment?

Preliminary research is attached with sources. Also a sample is attached to give you an idea of how it should be formatted.
Evaluate a Source
ASSIGNMENT: For this essay, you will select one of the sources you have found through your preliminary research about your research topic. Which source you choose is up to you; however, it should be substantial enough that you will be able to talk about it at length, and intricate enough that it will keep you (and your reader) interested.
In order to foster learning and growth, all essays you submit must be newly written specifically for this course. Any recycled work will be sent back with a 0, and you will be given one attempt to redo the Touchstone.
The introduction of this paper will involve introducing the source: Provide the author, the title, and the context (where you found the source, where it was originally published, who sponsored it, etc.)
You will then go on to evaluate the source on two levels:
1. Credibility: Using the information in this unit as a guide, evaluate the source’s authenticity and reliability. Look at all the information that you can find about the source to establish the author’s (or sponsor’s) trustworthiness.
2. Usefulness: Using a combination of summary and analysis, examine the source on a critical level. Determine what the source’s purpose (thesis) is, and how it arrives at that goal. Examine its value to you and the project you are working on. How will it help you prove your own points? How might it come in handy to back up a claim (or address a counter-claim)?
Finally, you will include a conclusion which shows your final assessments on both counts.

ASSIGNMENT 2: INFORMATIVE ESSAY
Draft due Week 5 and worth 50 points
Revision due Week 7 and worth 150 points
Have you ever needed just the facts?
At times a formal, objectively written approach is more appropriate or even critical for establishing credibility so that your
audience will listen and get informed! The key to informative writing is making the shift from personal opinion to objec-
tive facts. This assignment will provide you with the important opportunity to practice making this shift to a style that is
required in so many workplaces and throughout your academic program.
For this assignment, you will write an informative essay on the topic you have previously chosen. You will need to identify
a problem, need, or process related to your topic. Then you will inform your audience and provide supporting evidence
from a minimum of two credible sources that have been provided in the webtext. Keep in mind, you will continue to use
the standard essay format: Introduction paragraph with a thesis statement, body paragraphs that specifically support the
points in your thesis statement, and a conclusion paragraph.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Compose a three-four (3-4) page paper in which you do the following:
1. Use third person point of view (POV) and the appropriate voice and tone throughout your paper.
a. Did you use third person pronouns? (he, she, they, their)
b. Do you sound impartial, informative/explanatory, and professional? How do you want your reader to feel?
(trust, smarter/informed)
c. Is the tone formal and factual?
2. Write an introduction paragraph, which includes your thesis statement. It is suggested that this paragraph contain 5-7
sentences.
a. Does my introduction get the reader’s attention by using an intriguing statistic, quote, question, or scenario?
b. Does my introduction explain the context and state the importance of the problem/issue?
c. Does your thesis statement include three supporting reasons that can be debated from a different perspec-
tive?
d. Is your thesis statement clear and concise?
3. Write a supporting/body paragraph for each of the three (3) points/reasons from your thesis statement. It is suggest-
ed that each paragraph contain at least 5-7 sentences.
a. Do your body paragraphs support each point of your thesis with relevant examples or statistics?
b. Do you address the opinions or concerns that your audience might have?
c. Did you paraphrase, quote, or summarize properly to avoid plagiarism? Did you comment on each quotation?
4. Write with logic and with transitions throughout your paper.
a. Are your ideas consistent and well-organized, i.e., chronological order or order of importance?
b. Do your ideas flow from one sentence to the next and one paragraph to the next, in the order presented in your
thesis statement?
5. Write a conclusion paragraph. It is suggested that this paragraph contain 5-7 sentences.
a. Did you paraphrase or restate the thesis in a new way?

Congratulations! You made it to your final assignment, and you have learned so much along the way.
• In the personal essay, you learned how to write with a strong personal voice.
• In the informative essay, you learned how to write objectively and support your points with credible sources to
inform the audience.
Now in your final assignment, you will combine these writing techniques to write a stance essay. A stance essay takes a
position on a topic and argues and supports that position with evidence. Consider your topic:
• What possible positions/arguments are there?
• What position resonates with you? (Which position do you believe is correct?)
• What are your main points?
• What are the counterpoints? Are you ready to dispute them?
• Do you have enough evidence to effectively support your argument?
For the stance essay, your personal voice (your perspective) should come through. This is just like assignment 1, except
you should maintain a formal tone. And just like assignment 2, you will need to support your points with credible sources.
You’re ready to take a position on the topic you have been writing about and to be persuasive!
INSTRUCTIONS:
Compose a three-four (3-4) page paper in which you do the following:

b. Does your thesis statement include three supporting reasons that clearly express your stance on the topic?
c. Is your thesis statement clear and concise?
d. Does your introduction provide a preview of the rest of your essay?
3. Write a supporting/body paragraph for each of the three (3) points/reasons from your thesis statement. It is suggest-
ed that each paragraph contain at least 5-7 sentences.

Scoring Full Points on Discussion Questions1. Use headings to se.docx
Scoring Full Points on Discussion Questions
1. Use headings to separate the different parts of your discussion. This helps to make sure you address everything you are asked to address in the discussion.
2. Use at least one outside professional resource published in the last 5 years in your initial post. I’ve already read your textbooks, so I want to see you applying material beyond what we are discussing in the course. Professional resources refer to books or journal articles, not Wikipedia or other non-professional sources.
3. Give a substantial response to more peers than is required for the minimum. For instance, if you are required to respond to one peer and you respond to one peer – you have met the standard. If you want to go above and beyond, respond to at least two peers in an effort to keep the conversation going. Responding to me does not count as a peer response.
4. Use at least one professional outside resource in your peer responses. This means using a book or journal article, not Wikipedia or other non-professional sources. This should not be the same resource as the one used in your initial post.
5. Proof read all work before posting! The best way to do this is to type a response in word, use spell check; proof read your work and then copy and paste into the discussion area. If you consistently turn in work that is full of spelling errors and grammatical mistakes, you will receive lower scores for your writing.
6. Be on time with all posts.
Scoring Full Points on Application Papers and Final Projects
1. Review the Quick Reference List for APA Formatting to make sure you are not making any of the mistakes outlined there.
2. Be sure to know the difference between quotation marks (“”), which are used around direct quotes, and apostrophes (‘) which are used to make words plural such as client’s or clients’.
3. Make sure to always include a cover page with page numbers. Refer to your APA manual as a guide.
4. Start each paper with an introduction that outlines what your paper will be talking about.
5. Use headings to separate the different areas of your paper. This will also help you make sure you are addressing everything you are being asked to address in your paper.
6. Include a conclusion that summarizes everything you have discussed in your paper.
7. Use at least two outside professional resources in your application papers that have been published within the last 5 years.
8. Put your references on a separate page and make sure all references are listed in alphabetical order and are double spaced.
9. Be sure to have accurate APA references and in text citations. Be sure to follow the APA 6th edition for how to do your citations and references.
10. Be on time with your applications.
11. Please note that Wikipedia and other online sites of that caliber are NOT scholarly resources. Your resources should be limited to academic books and journal articles only that are no more than 5 years old. The only exception for olde.

ENG 123 Research Paper Guidelines and RubricOverviewIn th.docx
ENG 123: Research Paper Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
In this assignment, you will write a research paper. Research writing is commonly required in college courses for well-established reasons. It helps you develop specific skills and abilities that are essential in college, the workplace, and life. Regardless of your major and the career you choose, you will need to be able to demonstrate the critical thinking that research writing requires. Why are critical thinking skills so important? They are what allow us to comprehend difficult concepts and to engage with complex ideas, including ideas with which we may disagree. Writing research papers helps us develop critical thinking skills because we have to use critical thinking throughout each step of the writing process. We use critical thinking when we determine how to find information, when we comprehend information new to us, analyze information, evaluate sources, reach conclusions, make rational decisions, and solve problems. Moreover, we usually engage in research writing with the goal of persuading, and the ability to persuade effectively is also essential in life. Much of what we do in school, the workplace, and even our personal lives depends on the ability to persuade. You will need to know how to write research papers for your college courses, but research writing is not restricted to the academic setting. In both personal and professional contexts the development of your research paper is a concrete demonstration of your mastery of the topic, enhancing your credibility and deepening your own understanding.
Your Mission
Select a topic that considers your interest, your career, and/or previous knowledge and experience. You will identify a research question based upon this topic. Your research paper should allow you to explore some aspect of your interest from an objective perspective. Be wary of choosing topics that you know absolutely nothing about. For example, if you choose a topic in the health sciences, you need to be prepared to read health sciences research material, which can be quite intimidating to someone who is not familiar with the language of the discipline.
Your Resources
Use your Learning Modules to guide you through the development of your Research Paper Project. Each module is a valuable resource that will walk you through important aspects of your research paper. Review your syllabus and Learning Module titles to identify the purpose of each module in the process. You will explore your topics and post them to the discussion forum at the beginning of Module One so that you are ready to create a working research question by the end of the module. You will submit an annotated bibliography at the end of Module Two. Your completed Outline is due in Module Three. Your first draft is due at the end of ModuleFive to you instructor. You will engage in a peer review for this draft in Module Six and submit the final draft of your completed Research Paper at the end of Modu ...

Points: 100
Overview:
Over the course of the last few units, you have been working on crafting the argument
for your Argument Essay. You will now write an argument essay that answers one of
these questions.
The essay should answer ONE of these questions:
1. Should climate change be considered a real issue or a hoax?
2. Should the United States have universal health care?
3. Should employers have access to employee’s social media content?
Each of the above questions relate to one of the issues you have already written about
in the Unit 4 Assignment: Pro and Con of an Issue. Now, choose one side of the issue
to develop into an argument essay.
You should answer ONE of the above questions in a well-thought out and developed
argument essay with:
• A clear introduction that sets up the issue, explains your topics, and ends with your
thesis statement.
• Body paragraphs focusing on one topic in support of your argument in each paragraph.
o You need three reliable and academic sources for this assignment in support of
your argument. You should include evidence that is directly quoted, paraphrased,
or summarized to support each topic. The evidence should have appropriate in-
text citations.
o You will typically want to include one piece of evidence in the body of each
paragraph, as you did in the paragraph and pro/con assignment. You are not
required to include a source about the counterargument (other side of your
argument), but you may if you would like.
• Then, end with a conclusion that wraps up your essay’s argument and leaves the reader
with something to consider about your issue.
ENG110 – College Writing
Argument Essay
• Include a references page for the three sources you used in your essay.
You can use the ideas from your Pro/Con paragraphs in your argument essay, but
they should be revised and reworded so that you are not just resubmitting your
Unit 4 assignment.
Argument Essay and Third Person, Objective Writing
We have probably all had to argue for a position we held. What makes someone
receptive to your argument? Normally, the audience is more willing to listen to your
position if you argue for it objectively and avoid unreasonable, argumentative tactics.
Your argument needs to be logical and fair, giving people the ability to disagree with
you.
Your argument also should be written in the third person to show that you can be
objective, meaning you use “He,” “she,” “they,” “people,” “one” and do not use “I,” “me,”
“we,” “us,” “our,” “you,” and “your.”
Instructions:
• Create an argument essay that answers ONE of the above questions.
• You should have a well-articulated argument essay with an introduction, body
paragraphs (with evidence), conclusion, and a references page.
Requirements:
• Please submit a Microsoft Word document or PDF.
• The essay should be three to four pages in length ...

If you are commenting only in this forum, then please post a brief comment on Kant's notion of the "good will." Explain whether you agree with Kant's view that "an action done from duty must wholly exclude the influence of inclination and with it every object of the will."
Explain whether you agree with Kant's view that "an action done from duty must wholly exclude the influence of inclination and with it every object of the will, so that nothing remains which can determine the will except objectively the law."
Please be sure to use proper punctuation, and to avoid words and phrases that are vague and general. Aim for precision. Use short quotations from the primary text (the reading below) to develop and support your argument. It is perfectly acceptable to discuss lines or ideas that confused you.
Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals (selections)
Nothing can possibly be conceived in the world, or even out of it, which can be called good, without qualification, except a good will. Intelligence, wit, judgement, and the other talents of the mind, however they may be named, or courage, resolution, perseverance, as qualities of temperament, are undoubtedly good and desirable in many respects; but these gifts of nature may also become extremely bad and mischievous if the will which is to make use of them, and which, therefore, constitutes what is called character, is not good. It is the same with the gifts of fortune. Power, riches, honour, even health, and the general well-being and contentment with one’s condition which is called happiness, inspire pride, and often presumption, if there is not a good will to correct the influence of these on the mind, and with this also to rectify the whole principle of acting and adapt it to its end. The sight of a being who is not adorned with a single feature of a pure and good will, enjoying unbroken prosperity, can never give pleasure to an impartial rational spectator. Thus a good will appears to constitute the indispensable condition even of being worthy of happiness… A good will is good not because of what it performs or effects, not by its aptness for the attainment of some proposed end, but simply by virtue of the volition; that is, it is good in itself, and considered by itself is to be esteemed much higher than all that can be brought about by it in favour of any inclination, nay even of the sum total of all inclinations...
Now an action done from duty must wholly exclude the influence of inclination and with it every object of the will, so that nothing remains which can determine the will except objectively the law, and subjectively pure respect for this practical law, and consequently the maxim that I should follow this law even to the thwarting of all my inclinations… Thus the moral worth of an action does not lie in the effect expected from it, nor in any principle of action which requires to borrow its motive from this expected effect. For all these effects agreeableness of one’s condition and1 Watch at least one of the posted videos for Week 10 below..docx

Dr. Leroy Little Bear connects quantum physics to the Indigenous belief in "spirit," an idea that implies each person's intense ethical relationship to the world. He also reminds us that science is as much a belief system (and value system) as any spiritual tradition. In a similar fashion, Physicist David Bohm (a student of Einstein) wrote a book called Wholeness and the Implicate Order, arguing that our measurements of the physical world provide an incomplete picture of reality, and that there is a non-local, interconnected realm in which everything is fundamentally linked to everything else.
Do you think that "infinite potential" can be left out of our discussion of ethics? You may recall that Kant, in the late 18th Century, left "noumena" outside of human cognition (which only knows "phenomena" or mental representations). In the 1920s, Whitehead questioned Kant's move to privilege reason over feeling, and to cast the metaphysical outside of human knowledge. In doing so, Whitehead offered a simpler explanation of ethics: the world itself is composed of feelings or values (prior to human cognition).
Looking at this question from your own background, tradition, and experience, do you think that we can experience the infinite (and, in it, infinite ethical interrelationship)?
Is it possible that science (as the video "Infinite Potential" suggests) is on the verge of discovering the "field" that connects all things. Ethically, this would mean that your every thought, word, and action affects the whole world. Given such confirmation, would you live any differently?
Conversely, do you think that the absence of scientific confirmation about (and interest in) the metaphysical dimensions of ethics allows us moderns to behave in questionable ways?

ENG 115
ASSIGNMENT 3: STANCE ESSAY
Due Week 10 and worth 230 points
Congratulations! You made it to your final assignment, and you have learned so much along the way.
• In the personal essay, you learned how to write with a strong personal voice.
• In the informative essay, you learned how to write objectively and support your points with credible sources to
inform the audience.
Now in your final assignment, you will combine these writing techniques to write a stance essay. A stance essay takes a
position on a topic and argues and supports that position with evidence. Consider your topic:
• What possible positions/arguments are there?
• What position resonates with you? (Which position do you believe is correct?)
• What are your main points?
• What are the counterpoints? Are you ready to dispute them?
• Do you have enough evidence to effectively support your argument?
For the stance essay, your personal voice (your perspective) should come through. This is just like assignment 1, except
you should maintain a formal tone. And just like assignment 2, you will need to support your points with credible sources.
You’re ready to take a position on the topic you have been writing about and to be persuasive!
INSTRUCTIONS:
Compose a three-four (3-4) page paper in which you do the following:
1. Use third person point of view (POV) and the appropriate voice and tone throughout your paper.
a. Did you use third person pronouns? (he, she, they, their)
b. Does your personality carry over in your writing? Are your word choices personal and consistent?
c. Is the tone formal? Does it express your atitude about the topic?
2. Write an introduction paragraph, which includes your thesis statement. It is suggested that this paragraph contain 5-7
sentences.
a. Does your introduction include solutions or approaches on the topic?
b. Does your thesis statement include three supporting reasons that clearly express your stance on the topic?
c. Is your thesis statement clear and concise?
d. Does your introduction provide a preview of the rest of your essay?
3. Write a supporting/body paragraph for each of the three (3) points/reasons from your thesis statement. It is suggest-
ed that each paragraph contain at least 5-7 sentences.
a. Do your body paragraphs support each point of your thesis with relevant examples or statistics?
b. Do you address the opinions or concerns that your audience might have?

Scoring Full Points on Discussion Questions1. Use headings to se.docx
Scoring Full Points on Discussion Questions
1. Use headings to separate the different parts of your discussion. This helps to make sure you address everything you are asked to address in the discussion.
2. Use at least one outside professional resource published in the last 5 years in your initial post. I’ve already read your textbooks, so I want to see you applying material beyond what we are discussing in the course. Professional resources refer to books or journal articles, not Wikipedia or other non-professional sources.
3. Give a substantial response to more peers than is required for the minimum. For instance, if you are required to respond to one peer and you respond to one peer – you have met the standard. If you want to go above and beyond, respond to at least two peers in an effort to keep the conversation going. Responding to me does not count as a peer response.
4. Use at least one professional outside resource in your peer responses. This means using a book or journal article, not Wikipedia or other non-professional sources. This should not be the same resource as the one used in your initial post.
5. Proof read all work before posting! The best way to do this is to type a response in word, use spell check; proof read your work and then copy and paste into the discussion area. If you consistently turn in work that is full of spelling errors and grammatical mistakes, you will receive lower scores for your writing.
6. Be on time with all posts.
Scoring Full Points on Application Papers and Final Projects
1. Review the Quick Reference List for APA Formatting to make sure you are not making any of the mistakes outlined there.
2. Be sure to know the difference between quotation marks (“”), which are used around direct quotes, and apostrophes (‘) which are used to make words plural such as client’s or clients’.
3. Make sure to always include a cover page with page numbers. Refer to your APA manual as a guide.
4. Start each paper with an introduction that outlines what your paper will be talking about.
5. Use headings to separate the different areas of your paper. This will also help you make sure you are addressing everything you are being asked to address in your paper.
6. Include a conclusion that summarizes everything you have discussed in your paper.
7. Use at least two outside professional resources in your application papers that have been published within the last 5 years.
8. Put your references on a separate page and make sure all references are listed in alphabetical order and are double spaced.
9. Be sure to have accurate APA references and in text citations. Be sure to follow the APA 6th edition for how to do your citations and references.
10. Be on time with your applications.
11. Please note that Wikipedia and other online sites of that caliber are NOT scholarly resources. Your resources should be limited to academic books and journal articles only that are no more than 5 years old. The only exception for olde.

ENG 123 Research Paper Guidelines and RubricOverviewIn th.docx
ENG 123: Research Paper Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
In this assignment, you will write a research paper. Research writing is commonly required in college courses for well-established reasons. It helps you develop specific skills and abilities that are essential in college, the workplace, and life. Regardless of your major and the career you choose, you will need to be able to demonstrate the critical thinking that research writing requires. Why are critical thinking skills so important? They are what allow us to comprehend difficult concepts and to engage with complex ideas, including ideas with which we may disagree. Writing research papers helps us develop critical thinking skills because we have to use critical thinking throughout each step of the writing process. We use critical thinking when we determine how to find information, when we comprehend information new to us, analyze information, evaluate sources, reach conclusions, make rational decisions, and solve problems. Moreover, we usually engage in research writing with the goal of persuading, and the ability to persuade effectively is also essential in life. Much of what we do in school, the workplace, and even our personal lives depends on the ability to persuade. You will need to know how to write research papers for your college courses, but research writing is not restricted to the academic setting. In both personal and professional contexts the development of your research paper is a concrete demonstration of your mastery of the topic, enhancing your credibility and deepening your own understanding.
Your Mission
Select a topic that considers your interest, your career, and/or previous knowledge and experience. You will identify a research question based upon this topic. Your research paper should allow you to explore some aspect of your interest from an objective perspective. Be wary of choosing topics that you know absolutely nothing about. For example, if you choose a topic in the health sciences, you need to be prepared to read health sciences research material, which can be quite intimidating to someone who is not familiar with the language of the discipline.
Your Resources
Use your Learning Modules to guide you through the development of your Research Paper Project. Each module is a valuable resource that will walk you through important aspects of your research paper. Review your syllabus and Learning Module titles to identify the purpose of each module in the process. You will explore your topics and post them to the discussion forum at the beginning of Module One so that you are ready to create a working research question by the end of the module. You will submit an annotated bibliography at the end of Module Two. Your completed Outline is due in Module Three. Your first draft is due at the end of ModuleFive to you instructor. You will engage in a peer review for this draft in Module Six and submit the final draft of your completed Research Paper at the end of Modu ...

Due Date: 11:59 p.m. EST, Sunday, of Unit 7
Points: 100
Overview:
Over the course of the last few units, you have been working on crafting the argument
for your Argument Essay. You will now write an argument essay that answers one of
these questions.
The essay should answer ONE of these questions:
1. Should climate change be considered a real issue or a hoax?
2. Should the United States have universal health care?
3. Should employers have access to employee’s social media content?
Each of the above questions relate to one of the issues you have already written about
in the Unit 4 Assignment: Pro and Con of an Issue. Now, choose one side of the issue
to develop into an argument essay.
You should answer ONE of the above questions in a well-thought out and developed
argument essay with:
• A clear introduction that sets up the issue, explains your topics, and ends with your
thesis statement.
• Body paragraphs focusing on one topic in support of your argument in each paragraph.
o You need three reliable and academic sources for this assignment in support of
your argument. You should include evidence that is directly quoted, paraphrased,
or summarized to support each topic. The evidence should have appropriate in-
text citations.
o You will typically want to include one piece of evidence in the body of each
paragraph, as you did in the paragraph and pro/con assignment. You are not
required to include a source about the counterargument (other side of your
argument), but you may if you would like.
• Then, end with a conclusion that wraps up your essay’s argument and leaves the reader
with something to consider about your issue.
ENG110 – College Writing
Argument Essay
• Include a references page for the three sources you used in your essay.
You can use the ideas from your Pro/Con paragraphs in your argument essay, but
they should be revised and reworded so that you are not just resubmitting your
Unit 4 assignment.
Argument Essay and Third Person, Objective Writing
We have probably all had to argue for a position we held. What makes someone
receptive to your argument? Normally, the audience is more willing to listen to your
position if you argue for it objectively and avoid unreasonable, argumentative tactics.
Your argument needs to be logical and fair, giving people the ability to disagree with
you.
Your argument also should be written in the third person to show that you can be
objective, meaning you use “He,” “she,” “they,” “people,” “one” and do not use “I,” “me,”
“we,” “us,” “our,” “you,” and “your.”
Instructions:
• Create an argument essay that answers ONE of the above questions.
• You should have a well-articulated argument essay with an introduction, body
paragraphs (with evidence), conclusion, and a references page.
Requirements:
• Please submit a Microsoft Word document or PDF.
• The essay should be three to four pages in length ...

If you are commenting only in this forum, then please post a brief comment on Kant's notion of the "good will." Explain whether you agree with Kant's view that "an action done from duty must wholly exclude the influence of inclination and with it every object of the will."
Explain whether you agree with Kant's view that "an action done from duty must wholly exclude the influence of inclination and with it every object of the will, so that nothing remains which can determine the will except objectively the law."
Please be sure to use proper punctuation, and to avoid words and phrases that are vague and general. Aim for precision. Use short quotations from the primary text (the reading below) to develop and support your argument. It is perfectly acceptable to discuss lines or ideas that confused you.
Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals (selections)
Nothing can possibly be conceived in the world, or even out of it, which can be called good, without qualification, except a good will. Intelligence, wit, judgement, and the other talents of the mind, however they may be named, or courage, resolution, perseverance, as qualities of temperament, are undoubtedly good and desirable in many respects; but these gifts of nature may also become extremely bad and mischievous if the will which is to make use of them, and which, therefore, constitutes what is called character, is not good. It is the same with the gifts of fortune. Power, riches, honour, even health, and the general well-being and contentment with one’s condition which is called happiness, inspire pride, and often presumption, if there is not a good will to correct the influence of these on the mind, and with this also to rectify the whole principle of acting and adapt it to its end. The sight of a being who is not adorned with a single feature of a pure and good will, enjoying unbroken prosperity, can never give pleasure to an impartial rational spectator. Thus a good will appears to constitute the indispensable condition even of being worthy of happiness… A good will is good not because of what it performs or effects, not by its aptness for the attainment of some proposed end, but simply by virtue of the volition; that is, it is good in itself, and considered by itself is to be esteemed much higher than all that can be brought about by it in favour of any inclination, nay even of the sum total of all inclinations...
Now an action done from duty must wholly exclude the influence of inclination and with it every object of the will, so that nothing remains which can determine the will except objectively the law, and subjectively pure respect for this practical law, and consequently the maxim that I should follow this law even to the thwarting of all my inclinations… Thus the moral worth of an action does not lie in the effect expected from it, nor in any principle of action which requires to borrow its motive from this expected effect. For all these effects agreeableness of one’s condition and1 Watch at least one of the posted videos for Week 10 below..docx

Dr. Leroy Little Bear connects quantum physics to the Indigenous belief in "spirit," an idea that implies each person's intense ethical relationship to the world. He also reminds us that science is as much a belief system (and value system) as any spiritual tradition. In a similar fashion, Physicist David Bohm (a student of Einstein) wrote a book called Wholeness and the Implicate Order, arguing that our measurements of the physical world provide an incomplete picture of reality, and that there is a non-local, interconnected realm in which everything is fundamentally linked to everything else.
Do you think that "infinite potential" can be left out of our discussion of ethics? You may recall that Kant, in the late 18th Century, left "noumena" outside of human cognition (which only knows "phenomena" or mental representations). In the 1920s, Whitehead questioned Kant's move to privilege reason over feeling, and to cast the metaphysical outside of human knowledge. In doing so, Whitehead offered a simpler explanation of ethics: the world itself is composed of feelings or values (prior to human cognition).
Looking at this question from your own background, tradition, and experience, do you think that we can experience the infinite (and, in it, infinite ethical interrelationship)?
Is it possible that science (as the video "Infinite Potential" suggests) is on the verge of discovering the "field" that connects all things. Ethically, this would mean that your every thought, word, and action affects the whole world. Given such confirmation, would you live any differently?
Conversely, do you think that the absence of scientific confirmation about (and interest in) the metaphysical dimensions of ethics allows us moderns to behave in questionable ways?

Plato's Allegory of the Cave seems to suggest that only through questioning social reality, and improving ourselves intellectually, can we discover the real source of virtue (and be virtuous). Aristotle's notion of phrónesis (“practical wisdom”) seems to dismiss the notion of an intrinsic source of virtue, to emphasize instead that virtue is a practical skill that we develop through practice, which enables us to reliably choose the middle point between extremes in all situations.
Who do you agree with more, Plato or Aristotle? And why?
"Virtue is a state of character concerned with a choice, lying in a mean relative to us, this being determined by a rational principle, and by that principle by which the person of practical wisdom would determine it." (Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics 2.6)

Whitehead and Dr. Leroy Little Bear both emphasize the ethical implications of interconnectedness. We have seen in this course that moral frameworks from the Age of Reason emphasize knowledge/reason, while alternatives (care ethics, ecological ethics, Indigenous ethics, Buddhist ethics, nonwestern ethics) emphasize wisdom. What is wisdom? The sciences of ecology and quantum physics tell us about interconnectedness, based on careful measurements (knowledge), but can this sense of interconnectedness be accessed through contemplative wisdom?
Do we need an ethics grounded in wisdom?
As a group do you think that, as individuals, we ever experience ethical interconnectedness that is metaphysical or part of "spirit"? Are the brain and the mind the same thing?

The background of the research is the personal and professional experience of the researcher, who has worked in the museum sector in Ireland for the past five years and has recently moved into the university advancement sector. Through this experience, the author has identified gaps within fundraising strategies in Irish museums, which has led to an interest in exploring similar institutions and learning from their strategies.
This background is significant because it provides context for the research question and objectives, along with a personal motivation for the researcher. It also suggests that the author has a deep understanding of the museum and higher education sectors in Ireland, which can be valuable in conducting the research and analysing the results..
Research question and objectives
The inquiry into whether museums should seek guidance from higher education on fundraising strategies presents an intriguing topic for discussion. It is worth noting that both sectors rely on government grants, trusts, and philanthropy to supplement their budgets, among other similarities. However, universities have been fundraising for considerably longer than museums and have even established development offices solely dedicated to fundraising efforts. As a result, universities have developed sophisticated strategies for identifying and engaging donors. There may be valuable insights that museums can gain by examining and adapting these strategies to their specific requirements. The choice of Trinity College Dublin and Chester Beatty as case studies reflects the authors’ personal connection and deep understanding of these institutions, which can provide a rich and nuanced understanding of their fundraising strategies.Email us Homework1078@gmail.com cdfvf - Copy.pdf
