Primary source analysis 1
Primary Source Analysis.
[footnoteRef:1]This study will analyze the article ‘Sources of Chinese Tradition’ which was compiled by three authors, Burton Watson, Theodore de Bary and Wing-tsit Chan. The source is from Chinese literature and the study will mainly be aimed at finding a connection between the micro source and the macro source. The micro source will detail the source as an individual case whereas the macro will analyze the source as a large historical development. This will enable the reader to augment their understanding on the time and place where the source was written and further elucidate their understanding on both conventional and contemporary history. The question that will be posed by this study is; ‘how was the ancient Chinese administration structured and how did this influence the future Chinese administration structure?” (on the first part here, talk about the source more than just talking about the publisher of the book. It would be in the first paragraph of the source, who wrote the source (Announcement of the Duke of Shao) and why? when it was written and what is the purpose of it? Also talk a little bit about the Zhou dynasty and how it is related? Do some research outside the source use google or what so ever. To get an idea about some questions above here are some answers: we don’t know who wrote it, it was from somebody to his boss. The purpose of it was to report the building of the capital city. Use those answers but also go in details. Also remove the historical question to the paragraph when you talk about what happened and after you collect all the information, then ask the question.) This was the biggest problem in the paper, to write more about the source itself. [1: Wendy Conklin, “Analyzing and writing with primary sources,” (New York, NY: Teacher Created Materials, 2015).

Leila is a police officer. She is out of uniform and knocked on Dan's front door of his house and asked if she could enter to enforce a warrant she had. The warrant was a search warrant issued by a magistrate at the Lawrence District Court. His name is Mark McCale, a retired police officer for the state police department in Lawrence. The warrant indicated that "the first floor of Dan's house will be searched for a gun used in connection with a robbery and some jewelry, which was stolen." While looking in Dan's house, Officer Leila smelled what she thought to be gun powder emanating from the second floor. Officer Leila immediately walked upstairs and found a gun at the tops of the stairs. She went to confiscate the gun and while doing so noticed a note attached to the gun with an address on it. Later that afternoon police officers went to the address of the house listed on the note of the gun. Jewelry was found at this address and collected by the police officers. The address was a known address for stolen jewelry to be pawned. While at Dan's house, Dan told Officer Leila that, "I do not know what you are here for, because I did not rob Terri Grubb's jewelry store."

This week, I would like you to discuss similarities with past pandemics, and the current COVID-19 pandemic using this link https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/1968-pandemic.html
What do you see as similar, and what do you see as different?
It is CRITICAL that you document your sources with the week's discussion. If your post has no references or the references are really not reliable nor valid, then you will receive zero points for the post. This includes both your own post, and your comments on other's posts.
The rationale for this involves the amount of commentary that is available about the pandemic from people that are not scientists, nor do they have the knowledge of infectious diseases. What they DO have is a strong desire to sound good and influence people. We HAVE TO know what is good information and hat is not good information.
Several posts due this week... You must write three original posts, and comment on five other posts for a total of eight posts for credit this week.
EXAMPLE:
Post 1: An initial similarity between COVID-19 and the 2009 (H1N1) pdm09 virus was the unknown of the virus’. Both viruses’ have not been seen in human before yet strands of the virus had. COVID-19 is new coronavirus that has not been detected in humans before. There have been many strands of coronavirus that have detected in humans before such as the common cold (CDC, 2020).
Similarly, the 2009 (H1N1) pdm09 virus was very different from H1N1 virus’ that were detected before the pandemic. There were few young people who were found to have the antibodies likely from a previous exposure to H1N1 virus strand (CDC, 2019).
Both the recent pandemics were mutated strands of virus’ that we have seen before.

The warrant indicated that "the first floor of Dan's house will be searched for a gun used in connection with a robbery and some jewelry, which was stolen." While looking in Dan's house, Officer Leila smelled what she thought to be gun powder emanating from the second floor. Officer Leila immediately walked upstairs and found a gun at the tops of the stairs. She went to confiscate the gun and while doing so noticed a note attached to the gun with an address on it. Later that afternoon police officers went to the address of the house listed on the note of the gun. A bunch of jewelry was found at this address and collected by the police officers. The address was a known address for stolen jewelry to be pawned. While at Dan's house, Dan told Officer Leila that, "I do not know what you are here for, because I did not rob the Terri Grubb's jewelry store." Officer Leila asked Dan to go to the police station and Dan agreed. As they walked into the police station, Magistrate McCale yelled, "is that the person who robbed Terri Grubb's jewelry store?!" Dan replied, "I told Officer Leila already, I did not rob the Terri Grubb's jewelry store."

This week, I would like you to discuss similarities with past pandemics, and the current COVID-19 pandemic using this link https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/1968-pandemic.html
What do you see as similar, and what do you see as different?
It is CRITICAL that you document your sources with the week's discussion. If your post has no references or the references are really not reliable nor valid, then you will receive zero points for the post. This includes both your own post, and your comments on other's posts.
The rationale for this involves the amount of commentary that is available about the pandemic from people that are not scientists, nor do they have the knowledge of infectious diseases. What they DO have is a strong desire to sound good and influence people. We HAVE TO know what is good information and hat is not good information.
Several posts due this week... You must write three original posts, and comment on five other posts for a total of eight posts for credit this week.
EXAMPLE:
Post 1: An initial similarity between COVID-19 and the 2009 (H1N1) pdm09 virus was the unknown of the virus’. Both viruses’ have not been seen in human before yet strands of the virus had. COVID-19 is new coronavirus that has not been detected in humans before. There have been many strands of coronavirus that have detected in humans before such as the common cold (CDC, 2020).
Similarly, the 2009 (H1N1) pdm09 virus was very different from H1N1 virus’ that were detected before the pandemic. There were few young people who were found to have the antibodies likely from a previous exposure to H1N1 virus strand (CDC, 2019).
Both the recent pandemics were mutated strands of virus’ that we have seen before.

Write an observation essay that explains the unique significance.docx
Write an
observation essay
that explains the unique significance of a particular person or place within a larger community. Describe the person or place through vivid description, narration, dialogue and sensory details. Help others outside of your community understand why the person or place is important to the community.
Assignment
Observation
, as the CEL describes it, requires writers to "study their subjects and learn something by seeing them in a particular way" (93). Observation essays do more than just report facts: they also "find the hidden meaning, the significant issues, and the important aspects of a particular subject" (93).
Your purpose in this Observation Essay is to
convey the significance of a particular person or place in your community through details that show how the subject "fits" within the community's priorities and values
. Your descriptions and details should make it easy for someone unfamiliar with your community to understand why the person or place you chose is relevant and significant to the community.
*Note: although this essay is intended to be based in recent, firsthand observations, you may write from recent memories instead if you are restricted in travel and mobility during the COVID pandemic. If you are writing from memories, try to recreate scenes and descriptions as though you are seeing them again for the first time.
In order to achieve this purpose, you need to:
Observe and Take field notes. Begin with observing the person or place and writing down notes about what you see, hear, and sense. Plan to observe this person or place 2-3 times. In your notes, record specific actions that you notice, dialogue you overhear, interactions you have with other people, and any important details about the scene that might help you SHOW its significance through vivid detail and narration.
Describe the person or place through actions, details, and dialogue that offer
insight
into why this person or place has unique
significance
as an important part of the community.
Explain context and background that shows how the person or place matters within the larger community. Context might include history, factual information, anecdotes, geographical information, or other details that help an audience understand the person or place as part of something bigger than themselves/itself.
Follow a carefully planned organizational structure that gives priority to specific details, themes, and values. Your final draft should be organized to show the significance of the person or place and should not simply list details in the order you observed them.
Offer a strong introduction that hooks readers with vivid details or action and focuses attention on the significance of the subject. Provide a strong conclusion that
As you look back over your observations and notes, remember that your essay should do more than simply relate details without any larger significance. Your observation of the person or place should .

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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.
