The Importance of Writing Badly
According to The Importance of Writing Badly essay the professor Bruce Ballenger was English and former department Chair at Boise State University, and he was so sad about the students writing in his classes he teaches and how they did not know how to write a good essay. And asks himself why the students have this problem. Moreover, he asked one of his student in his office:” It must be pretty eye opening reading that stuff. Can you believe those students had four years of high school and still cannot write?” Also, he heard the same problem from the colleagues brandishing red pen who ever over their students’ papers like Huey helicopters waiting to flush the enemy. Also, he has another problem: getting his students to write badly. Mrs. O’Neill was an eighth grade teacher with a good heart but no patience for the bad sentence. Her favorite comment on my writing was "awk," which now sounds to me like the grunt of large bird, but back then meant "awkward". However, there many students in the night before the essay is due they pace their rooms like expectant fathers, waiting to deliver the perfect beginning. There are many pledges to steer clear of English classes, or any class that demands much writing. Finally, the grates reward in allowing students to write badly is that they learn that language can lead them to meaning. It usually happens when the words rush to the page. It is more important to allow students to first experience how language can be a vehicle for discovering how they see the world. In this essay I will try to find out is he succeeded his goal or not? And how he wants to succeeded his goal?
The professor name is Bruce Ballenger; he is a Professor of English and former department Chair at Boise State University. He is the author of seven books and he has published more than thirty articles and essays in publications ranging from River Teeth: A Journal of Narrative Nonfiction to Colleg.
The role of blogs in L2 writing contextualization and expository reachLee Arnold
This is the fourth and final presentation in a series on blogs and learner writing in TEFL classrooms with Japanese learners of L2 English. This presentation identifies some key issues in L2 writing pedagogy and the role blogs may play in addressing and remedying such issues, particularly in contextualizing assignments into project form and providing a framework to enhance opportunities to increase expository reach - the capacity of learners to write to levels beyond where they may have previously written.

CNF Reflection:
Since I started this course, I realize how it will be challenging for me, first of all, I am an international freshman English major, so English is my second language. I thought, in the beginning, it will be easy, and I can do it as the native speakers, but unfortunately my scores don’t show that. I got difficulty with writing that much of papers and found it challenging. I said I will do my best and will work hard I might succeed and pass. I tried and squeezed my brain in hope to do better and better.
I started my CNF draft by telling a story of my young brother Yousef, who has rare condition illness. Just 300 statues in the whole world, I explained more about how our life as a family has changed before Yousef been a member of the family and after. Yousef adorable, kind and quiet child, who spends most of his life in hospitals. I hope to find the right medical treatment to this issue. I explained more about how our life was affected, how I had to leave everything behind me, as my country Saudi Arabia, my friends, my memories, and latterly everything. You can imagine how hard it could be.
Some of the comments that I had in my first CNF drafts were about where are you in the story? Why we can’t see you between the lines? I thought, in the beginning, I just want to tell the story that has a high meaning to me I could not deliver what I was feeling exactly. People can’t feel the way that you feel except if they went at the same situation that you went through. So they will understand why you wrote this and this. I was thinking about starting my CNF by saying “ there was a family included two brothers and two sisters” Which I am one of the sisters who is writing the story. But readers could not get what I was trying to do, the feedback was always asking for my feelings, and my voice not for someone telling a story about someone else.
To be honest, it was tough to rewrite it again and again, but I had to, so I can include my voice in the story to be able to deliver my character to the reader. I took their feedback seriously. So I made my final draft shorter than the second draft. I feel satisfied with my final draft. I could give a clear idea of the kind of transformation that my family and I had before and after Yousef’s illness. Also, I could put my voice as well so the reader will understand what was my feeling at those moments.
I decided to change the topic of the story from The Child Yousef into a Life Transformation. I thought it would be better at this way. Not being specific will give the reader that question in the heads before reading the story which is what kind of life transformation it could be? So this is the reason for seeing the topic is different in the first and second draft that in the final draft.
I included a lot of dialogues in my CNF I think they give life to your story and realism. I know it is hard to remember everything precisely happened in the past, but it is not hard to remember the general i ...

Assignment 3: Neuroanatomy Project
Imagine that you are working in a neurology clinic. One of the neurologists tells you that as her practice is expanding, she is having difficulty meeting the education needs of her patients. Part of this problem is explaining the basic neuroanatomical structures to the patients in layperson’s language so that they understand their diagnoses and their underlying neurological impairment. The neurologist asks you to create a written guide for the patients, including both the CNS and PNS. She describes what the basic neuroanatomical structures are, where they are located, how they interact, and what function they serve.
She asks you to name the structures by using the correct technical language but to use layperson’s language as much as possible elsewhere.
Your "Neuroanatomy Guide" should cover the following:
Basic neuroanatomical structures (including the CNS and PNS, as well as the structural packaging that protects the brain from the environment)
Locations of these structures
Functions they serve (what functions damage to this area may affect)
How they interact
Be sure to explain the information in layperson’s language, and use graphics and pictures where helpful. Use APA format when citing material from scholarly sources such as your textbook and online notes. Include a cover page and a reference page listing the resources you used to create your guide.

Assignment 3: Mobile Computing and Social Networking
Due Week 7 and worth 75 points
Mobile computing has dramatically changed how information is accessed and shared. Wireless networking has been an enabler of mobile computing. One profession that mobile computing has had a big impact on is health care management. Patients are now able to monitor their vital signs such as blood pressure, glucose levels, etc. without having to periodically visit a doctor’s office or hospital.

Doctors and caregivers are then able to access the data on the clinical server. According to the American College of Gastroenterology, social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are used as powerful platforms to deliver and receive health care information.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
•

services.
•

information for decision-making purposes.
•

Assignment:
West Island Products (WIP) is a divisionalized furniture manufacturer. The divisions are
autonomous segments with each division responsible for its own sales, cost of operations, and
equipment acquisition. Divisional performance is evaluated annually based on ROI. Each division
serves a different market in the furniture industry. Because the markets and products of the
divisions are so different, there have never been any transfers between divisions.
The Commercial Division of WIP, manufacturers furniture for the restaurant industry. The
Commercial Division plans to introduce a new line of counter chair units featuring a cushioned
seat. Roberta Katz, the Commercial Division manager, has discussed the manufacturing of the
cushioned seats with Nathan Danielson of the Office Division. They both believe a cushioned
seat currently made by the Office Division for use on its deluxe office stool could be modified for
use on the new counter chair. Consequently, Katz asked Danielson for a price for 100-unit lots of
the cushioned seats. The following conversation took place about the price to be charged for the
cushioned seats.
Danielson:
“Roberta, we can make the necessary modifications to the cushioned seat easily.
The raw materials used in the new counter chair seat are slightly different and
should cost about 10 percent more than those used in our deluxe office stool.
However, the labor time should be the same because the seat fabrication
process is the same. I would price the cushioned seat at our regular rate: full cost
plus a 30 percent mark-up. According to my calculations, that would be $2,053
per lot of 100 seats.”
Katz:
“That’s higher than I expected, Nathan. I was thinking that a good price would be
your variable manufacturing cost. After all, your fixed costs will be incurred
regardless of this job. In addition, I have received a quote from one of the
Commercial Division’s regular suppliers to provide us with the counter seats at
$1,900 per lot of 100 seats.”
Danielson:
“Roberta, I am at full capacity. By making the cushioned seats for you, I have to
cut my production of deluxe office stools. The labor time freed by not having to
fabricate the frame and assemble the deluxe stool can be shifted to the
production of the economy stool. I’d like to sell the cushioned seats to you at my
variable cost, but I have excess.

Assignment 3 Juvenile ProbationIn many ways, juvenile probation i.docxdanielfoster65629
Assignment 3: Juvenile Probation
In many ways, juvenile probation is similar to adult probation. Both types of probation involve sanctions imposed by the court, necessitating close supervision of the offender, coupled with the looming threat of a more severe punishment, typically incarceration, if the offender fails to comply with the conditions stipulated in his or her probation.
Given the inherent complexity of working with juveniles, juvenile probation includes components, rules, and processes not found in adult probation. For example, probation officers must take into account factors such as school and parental wishes while determining how a particular case should be handled. These factors are not taken into consideration in adult probation. Also, juvenile probation officers must contend with and account for the inclusion of status offenses, which can be more difficult to track and monitor.
Tasks:
Prepare a 3- to 5-page report on your local juvenile probation department. In your report:
Describe the types of juvenile cases that your local juvenile probation department has taken care of in the past.
Locate and comment on the following:
The department’s mission and vision statement
Whether the juvenile department is located with the adult probation department and community corrections
The number of services aimed toward juveniles
The statistics that demonstrate the department’s effectiveness
State the overall assessment of your local juvenile probation department. Explain based on your research whether you think the department is run well. Does the department meet the needs of local youth? Support your answer with evidence.

Assignment 3 Gender IdentityWe are socialized at every stage in l.docxdanielfoster65629
Assignment 3: Gender Identity
We are socialized at every stage in life to conform to our gender identity. Societal reinforcement of tendencies of gender identity is relentless. For example, in hospitals, little girls are wrapped in pink and little boys in blue. This difference in colors influences how we learn and how we internalize our role in our society.
Girls tend to grow up to play feminine roles and boys tend to grow up to play masculine roles. This differentiation of gender identity has implications in social stratification. The videos given below will provide you with a better understanding of the differentiation of sexual identity from an earlier generation.
Search for and watch an episode of at least one of the following shows. You may find these videos using a variety of search methods including visiting your local library, using Netflix or your local video store, or searching on YouTube. If you have difficulty locating an episode of one of the following shows, contact your instructor for assistance in finding an alternative.
I Love Lucy
All in the Family
The Mickey Mouse Club
The Honeymooners
Leave it to Beaver
Father Knows Best
Gilligan’s Island
The Brady Bunch
I Dream of Jeannie
As you watch the video, ask yourself the following questions:
To what extent have things changed and to what extent have they remained the same in regards to gender roles, expectations, division, and identity from the time this show was originally popular and today?
How conscious and sensitive are the characters regarding gender prejudice, power inequality, and subordination?
Did they take inequality of the sexes for granted?
Based on your readings and understanding that you have gathered after watching the above-noted video, write a short biographical description of your life if you were to wake up tomorrow morning in the time period of the video you watched and find you have a different gender identity. Write a description of how you lived your life a day after your hypothetical change in gender as you answer the following questions
Discuss how you would react on finding out that your sex is opposite. Would you feel a sense of relief, indifference, or elation? Why?
Discuss three ways your attitude towards the opposite sex was enlightened or would change as a result of what you learned from this project. If you would not change your attitude, why?
Write down the ideas and attitudes you have taken for granted a member of your actual gender. Consider how your roles at home and in the office would change if you were a member of the opposite gender.
Relate the ideas of sexism and racism to the videos. How do you think sexism and racism have changed since the 1950s?

Assignment 3: America as a Superpower
Due Week 9 and worth 120 points
The previous assignments focused on domestic matters in U.S. history. This last assignment explores America’s international role in recent decades. By the mid-20th century, the United States had become the dominant force in international relations. Some have argued that the United States’ military functions as the world’s “police.” This assignment covers the manner in which this shift occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its status as “policeman of the world.” One can identify early steps this direction well before World War II, but in this paper focus on the period from the 1940s to the present. Examine the statement below and drawing from provided sources, present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position.
NOTE: The word “policing” here has nothing to do with traditional law enforcement agencies. It is more about trying to manage parts of the globe—usually by use of military force or the threat of it. The aim of this management may be to maintain stability, remove threats of “rogue” forces or terrorists or weapons, prevent the expansion of autocratic rule, protect a fledgling democracy, etc.
BACKGROUND--The American international “policing” role developed because of the Cold War, but now terrorists or any power having or trying to get weapons of mass destruction (WMD) are the potential targets of such a role. Your paper will use specific examples—two from the Cold War years and two from the past two decades.
Choose one of these position statements (make it the last sentence of your introductory paragraph):
1. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the international policing role and strategy of the United States was once essential, but should now be discarded as ineffective and counterproductive.
2. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the international policing role and strategy of the United States during the Cold War has become even more necessary in this period of terrorism and instability.
In your paper, use specific examples—tw.

· Plan to make that thesis statement the last sentence in your introductory paragraph. The general subject is America’s international “policing” role as a superpower for the last 70-plus years. You may moderate the wording slightly to fit more precisely the position you wish to take. This is NOT a simple statement of a topic; it is a statement of a position you are taking about that topic. p.s.—Valid arguments and “A” papers can be made with either thesis. So, you choose.

information for decision-making purposes.

Assignment:
West Island Products (WIP) is a divisionalized furniture manufacturer. The divisions are
autonomous segments with each division responsible for its own sales, cost of operations, and
equipment acquisition. Divisional performance is evaluated annually based on ROI. Each division
serves a different market in the furniture industry. Because the markets and products of the
divisions are so different, there have never been any transfers between divisions.
The Commercial Division of WIP, manufacturers furniture for the restaurant industry. The
Commercial Division plans to introduce a new line of counter chair units featuring a cushioned
seat. Roberta Katz, the Commercial Division manager, has discussed the manufacturing of the
cushioned seats with Nathan Danielson of the Office Division. They both believe a cushioned
seat currently made by the Office Division for use on its deluxe office stool could be modified for
use on the new counter chair. Consequently, Katz asked Danielson for a price for 100-unit lots of
the cushioned seats. The following conversation took place about the price to be charged for the
cushioned seats.
Danielson:
“Roberta, we can make the necessary modifications to the cushioned seat easily.
The raw materials used in the new counter chair seat are slightly different and
should cost about 10 percent more than those used in our deluxe office stool.
However, the labor time should be the same because the seat fabrication
process is the same. I would price the cushioned seat at our regular rate: full cost
plus a 30 percent mark-up. According to my calculations, that would be $2,053
per lot of 100 seats.”
Katz:
“That’s higher than I expected, Nathan. I was thinking that a good price would be
your variable manufacturing cost. After all, your fixed costs will be incurred
regardless of this job. In addition, I have received a quote from one of the
Commercial Division’s regular suppliers to provide us with the counter seats at
$1,900 per lot of 100 seats.”
Danielson:
“Roberta, I am at full capacity. By making the cushioned seats for you, I have to
cut my production of deluxe office stools. The labor time freed by not having to
fabricate the frame and assemble the deluxe stool can be shifted to the
production of the economy stool. I’d like to sell the cushioned seats to you at my
variable cost, but I have excess.

Assignment 3 Juvenile ProbationIn many ways, juvenile probation i.docxdanielfoster65629
Assignment 3: Juvenile Probation
In many ways, juvenile probation is similar to adult probation. Both types of probation involve sanctions imposed by the court, necessitating close supervision of the offender, coupled with the looming threat of a more severe punishment, typically incarceration, if the offender fails to comply with the conditions stipulated in his or her probation.
Given the inherent complexity of working with juveniles, juvenile probation includes components, rules, and processes not found in adult probation. For example, probation officers must take into account factors such as school and parental wishes while determining how a particular case should be handled. These factors are not taken into consideration in adult probation. Also, juvenile probation officers must contend with and account for the inclusion of status offenses, which can be more difficult to track and monitor.
Tasks:
Prepare a 3- to 5-page report on your local juvenile probation department. In your report:
Describe the types of juvenile cases that your local juvenile probation department has taken care of in the past.
Locate and comment on the following:
The department’s mission and vision statement
Whether the juvenile department is located with the adult probation department and community corrections
The number of services aimed toward juveniles
The statistics that demonstrate the department’s effectiveness
State the overall assessment of your local juvenile probation department. Explain based on your research whether you think the department is run well. Does the department meet the needs of local youth? Support your answer with evidence.

Assignment 3 Gender IdentityWe are socialized at every stage in l.docxdanielfoster65629
Assignment 3: Gender Identity
We are socialized at every stage in life to conform to our gender identity. Societal reinforcement of tendencies of gender identity is relentless. For example, in hospitals, little girls are wrapped in pink and little boys in blue. This difference in colors influences how we learn and how we internalize our role in our society.
Girls tend to grow up to play feminine roles and boys tend to grow up to play masculine roles. This differentiation of gender identity has implications in social stratification. The videos given below will provide you with a better understanding of the differentiation of sexual identity from an earlier generation.
Search for and watch an episode of at least one of the following shows. You may find these videos using a variety of search methods including visiting your local library, using Netflix or your local video store, or searching on YouTube. If you have difficulty locating an episode of one of the following shows, contact your instructor for assistance in finding an alternative.
I Love Lucy
All in the Family
The Mickey Mouse Club
The Honeymooners
Leave it to Beaver
Father Knows Best
Gilligan’s Island
The Brady Bunch
I Dream of Jeannie
As you watch the video, ask yourself the following questions:
To what extent have things changed and to what extent have they remained the same in regards to gender roles, expectations, division, and identity from the time this show was originally popular and today?
How conscious and sensitive are the characters regarding gender prejudice, power inequality, and subordination?
Did they take inequality of the sexes for granted?
Based on your readings and understanding that you have gathered after watching the above-noted video, write a short biographical description of your life if you were to wake up tomorrow morning in the time period of the video you watched and find you have a different gender identity. Write a description of how you lived your life a day after your hypothetical change in gender as you answer the following questions
Discuss how you would react on finding out that your sex is opposite. Would you feel a sense of relief, indifference, or elation? Why?
Discuss three ways your attitude towards the opposite sex was enlightened or would change as a result of what you learned from this project. If you would not change your attitude, why?
Write down the ideas and attitudes you have taken for granted a member of your actual gender. Consider how your roles at home and in the office would change if you were a member of the opposite gender.
Relate the ideas of sexism and racism to the videos. How do you think sexism and racism have changed since the 1950s?
Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M1_A3.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M1_A3.doc.

Assignment 3: America as a Superpower
Due Week 9 and worth 120 points
The previous assignments focused on domestic matters in U.S. history. This last assignment explores America’s international role in recent decades. By the mid-20th century, the United States had become the dominant force in international relations. Some have argued that the United States’ military functions as the world’s “police.” This assignment covers the manner in which this shift occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its status as “policeman of the world.” One can identify early steps this direction well before World War II, but in this paper focus on the period from the 1940s to the present. Examine the statement below and drawing from provided sources, present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position.
NOTE: The word “policing” here has nothing to do with traditional law enforcement agencies. It is more about trying to manage parts of the globe—usually by use of military force or the threat of it. The aim of this management may be to maintain stability, remove threats of “rogue” forces or terrorists or weapons, prevent the expansion of autocratic rule, protect a fledgling democracy, etc.
BACKGROUND--The American international “policing” role developed because of the Cold War, but now terrorists or any power having or trying to get weapons of mass destruction (WMD) are the potential targets of such a role. Your paper will use specific examples—two from the Cold War years and two from the past two decades.
Choose one of these position statements (make it the last sentence of your introductory paragraph):
1. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the international policing role and strategy of the United States was once essential, but should now be discarded as ineffective and counterproductive.
2. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the international policing role and strategy of the United States during the Cold War has become even more necessary in this period of terrorism and instability.
In your paper, use specific examples—tw.

The Importance of Writing Badly
According to The Importance of Writing Badly essay the
professor Bruce Ballenger was English and former department
Chair at Boise State University, and he was so sad about the
students writing in his classes he teaches and how they did not
know how to write a good essay. And asks himself why the
students have this problem. Moreover, he asked one of his
student in his office:” It must be pretty eye opening reading that
stuff. Can you believe those students had four years of high
school and still cannot write?” Also, he heard the same problem
from the colleagues brandishing red pen who ever over their
students’ papers like Huey helicopters waiting to flush the
enemy. Also, he has another problem: getting his students to
write badly. Mrs. O’Neill was an eighth grade teacher with a
good heart but no patience for the bad sentence. Her favorite
comment on my writing was "awk," which now sounds to me
like the grunt of large bird, but back then meant "awkward".
However, there many students in the night before the essay is
due they pace their rooms like expectant fathers, waiting to
deliver the perfect beginning. There are many pledges to steer
clear of English classes, or any class that demands much
3. writing. Finally, the grates reward in allowing students to write
badly is that they learn that language can lead them to meaning.
It usually happens when the words rush to the page. It is more
important to allow students to first experience how language
can be a vehicle for discovering how they see the world. In this
essay I will try to find out is he succeeded his goal or not? And
how he wants to succeeded his goal?
The professor name is Bruce Ballenger; he is a Professor of
English and former department Chair at Boise State University.
He is the author of seven books and he has published more than
thirty articles and essays in publications ranging from River
Teeth: A Journal of Narrative Nonfiction to College English. In
the essay his motivation was to help the students at the college
students and the university students to improving them writing
in English class. He was credibility with his essay and feels that
student problem. His purpose was helping his students to write
better and make them in love with the writing. The intended
audience in his essay is the students he teaches. Moreover, the
professor was in his essay so credible because he writes the
essay with feeling how to can help the students and trying to
search about the problem and trying to solve that. Also, he tried
to treat the opposing views fairly. However, the writer tone was
so friendly and his tone was like a father giving an advice and
trying to solve his son problems.
The professor was correct the students’ essays and he saw must
of students write badly, so he started to find where the problem
was and trying to have a solutions for that problem. The
professor was claiming the students to study more and have
practice to improve them writing. Moreover, his reasons for all
that is to make a good future for the next generation, because if
the students did not have enough information and good
knowledge, they will teach the next generation the wrong
information and they will have the same problem.
The writer touched the must point for the writing problem and
that is the importance point in this current generation, because
must of the students in the world have a problem with writing.
4. However, The professor move the audience feelings when he
side:” It must be pretty eye opening reading that stuff” because
that is really sad thing, how the new generation will learn if
there are many of students do not know how to write essay and
have a good information for the future. Moreover, the professor
was having a great reason and great thinks to help the students.
Also, the concrete language and the word he choice, touched the
audience. He used the awesome narrative ways and removes the
fillings. The writer has many examples, and he was clear with
those example and the audiences understand that example.
However, the writer made the reader think more about this
problem and remove the reader emotion. Also the writer touches
the values of writing problem in the audience.
In my opinion the professor Bruce Ballenger succeeded his goal
and his point arrived for the reader and the students. Moreover,
he touch me also because I am a student at the university and I
have many classes need to write essay and write my opinion.
Also, I have same problem with the writing for several reasons,
one of them I do not like to spend a lot of time to just write
about any thing and I do not know how I can get the ideas,
because I did not focus and practice. Moreover, I think many
students in the world have seam those reasons. Why I think the
professor Bruce Ballenger succeeded his goal for several
reasons, his motivation was to help the students, He was
credibility with his essay and feels that student problem. Search
about the problem then trying to solve that. He tried to treat the
opposing views fairly. The tone he had like a father giving an
advice and trying to solve his son problems. Make good future
teacher for the next generation. The professor was having a
great reason and great think. The narrative ways he uses was
awesome and remove fillings. And remove the reader emotion.
So I think he wrote about the importance points and the
importance of writing badly all the student and the people need
to take care and improving them self. Also, the writing is
important for our life and the mission to consolidate the
importance information for the future.

Paper 1
Language I don’t know
I had many experience in my life and learned a ton from it,
specifically reading and writing. When I was 6 years old I liked
reading books and writing diaries on daily bases. Also, I liked
to read bedtime stories to my sister Nora and my mother. Nora
is older than me, and she like reading and writing because she
thinks that will help her in her future life and that is a good
thought because now reading and writing are everything in our
life, and that inspired me to read Arabic books because my
mother tongue language is Arabic. Also, My mom and Nora
inspire me to have better life quality. However, I stopped
reading and writing when I was in high school for several
reasons: focus on my classes and hangout with my friends. After
that I felt how is the reading and writing are important to me.
My mom and Nora are my biggest inspiration, why are they?
Because they helped me in reading and improving my reading
and writing. My mom was an advanced-level Arabic teacher in
the middle school, so that why she like to read and write. Also,
my sister was the best reader of her school for three consecutive
years. She always likes to read and write in her office in Saudi
Arabia. So they are inspiring me to read and always they tall me
6. “the reading well give you knowledge in the future”.
My Mother and Nora made my life quality better with the
books. When I was 7 years old there Arabic book called the
‘The Shepherd Boy and The Wolf’, I always read that book
because that book taught me the most important ethical value in
our life is the honesty. The story of that book is ‘There was a
village and there is a shepherd used to take his sheep to the
lawns near the forest. One day he felt very boring. He wanted to
have fun. So he cried aloud "Wolf, Wolf. The wolf is carrying
away a lamb". Farmers working in the fields came running and
asked, "Where is the wolf?” The boy laughed and replied, "It
was just a fun. Now get going all of you". The boy played the
trick for tow time in the next few days. After many days the boy
was claiming up on a tree, as singing a song, there came a wolf.
The boy cried loudly "Wolf, Wolf, The wolf is carrying a lamb
away." There was no one to come. The boy shouted, "Help!
Wolf! Help!" Still no one came to his help. The villagers
thought that the boy was playing mischief again. The wolf
carried a lamb away. So I learned from that story never lie and
be honest in my life.
In the first years of my high school, I stopped reading and
writing because we moved out of our neighbor, I had to change
the school that I was in and leave my supportive friends and
community. And join a school, which had less energetic classes,
careless teachers they were not very supportive towards readers
and writers and develop the skills I needed to improve my
abilities, moreover, that made me weak in the skills I acquired
when I was young. One time I told my classmates I love reading
and writing they made fun of me. Also, I felt the loneliness in
this school and felt left out I wanted to go back to my old life.
When I asked my father to move back to our old neighborhood.
my dad told me “it’s far way from my new job, we had no other
choice but to live here.” So I needed to get along with other
students in the school. I slowly started to hangout with new
7. friends and I enjoyed their company and I became addicted with
the technology and video games. So my sister noticed the
weakness I had in high school, and gave me an advice that
would have change the way I looked into Writing and Reading
in high school.
I refused to listen to her, at that time while my performance in
school went down hill.
After I graduated high school I was shocked of how low my
grades were. So my sister got furious about my low grades and
she blamed my new friends and she scolded and told me that:
“you would have change the way I looked into Writing and
Reading in high school but you didn’t respond to me” then she
proceeded to tell me about if I cant read in my native language
how can I go on to learn a new one. That really got me thinking
about my future in the United States and learning a foreign
language let alone read and writing in that language. This is
why I believe English 1010 will be a great learning experience
for me. It would give me a push to be better at reading and
writing English through school and in my professional life after.
Now that I am older and wiser, I feel like its time for a change.
I realized that reading is very important to me. It also would be
very convenient for both my schooling and personal knowledge.
From now on I will make myself a reading list to stay on track.
I am very grateful for my mother and sister for being such great
inspirations to better educate my self and for enforcing good
habits in me. I am sure my mother will be very happy to know I
am back to my old reading ways since it is a family tradition in
our house to read and discuss books over tea in the afternoons.
Eventually I am hoping to write my own book one day to share
my experiences in life and maybe I would be an inspiration for
people that are living in a foreign country.

Non- Academic Discourse

Saudi club class
When I was in Saudi Arabia I joined in many clubs and I had
many experiences, learned tons of information from joining
those clubs. But there is one club called Saudi Student Club at
Utah State University (SSCUSU), founded in 2010 and I cannot
forget it for all my life because when I came to U.S. in
December 2014 that club helped me a lot to be more confortable
and to know where my school and my classes were. Then when I
had 9 months in U.S. I had learned many skills. I decided to be
in that club so I could payback what it has done for me. There
are many requirements I had to meet before joining that club
and one of the requirements is “have nine months or more than
that at USU.” The reason of that rule is to have enough
knowledge about the University and the city. Also, I have
joined this club for many reasons such as improving my self and
to be more social. Finally, this club gives me an experience,
which will help me in my academic discourse.
When I was in Saudi Arabia I decided to study abroad in the
U.S., so I just asked my father about that, and he told me that he
agreed to me studying abroad in U.S. So I had to search and ask
my friends about the universities in the U.S. and find a good
university for my major. Finally, I found Utah State University
and it’s a good choice for my major Computer Science. I
completed the USU applications, sent all my school documents,
and paid the entire fee I need to pay. Then I got accepted to
USU, and I was so happy for that. moreover, I found Logan city
is a free place from crimes. I opened the website to find more
information about the city. I found the Saudi Student Club at
Utah State University (SSCUSU) on the Facebook. So I just sent
an e-mail to them and said “I am coming to Logan to study
9. Computer Science, and I do not have any information about the
city and about the houses in Logan, also I do not speak English
very well, So can you guys help me with that?” After one day I
received an e-mail from them and found all the information I
wanted in that email. They said “We will be in the airport to
pick you up and show everything you need to know in Logan.”
So I was so happy because they helped me. Moreover, when I
arrived in Logan, they gave me a free room until I found a new
apartment. So the club job is about helping all the new students
from Saudi Arabia in everything they need and make them feel
more confortable and safe.
For every existing Club there’s a set of rules and leadership
pyramids, and the rules are basically that the volunteer needs to
be a Saudi student at USU, have more than 9 months at USU,
have a good knowledge about the university and the city,
enough knowledge about the university and the city, help all the
students with a happy face, need to have at least 3.0 GPA, and
have a good English language. All these rules help to make who
leave his/her family and come to study feel more safe and
happy, because its difficult for the students to leave their
families, friends, country, his/her life and live in the new
country and new area.
I had many reasons why I wanted to join this club, basically to
help the new students, share my culture and my experience, to
be more social, help to have a good information and knowledge,
and to have an excellent CV. It’s really important to me because
my future company requires me to have an excellent CV to
reflect everything I did in my education.
This club helps me more with the academic discourse. For
instance, I am taking academic classes and those classes require
me to be more fluent in English language. Since I go and talk to
different sites or different people, I feel I got that skill. Also,
this club has members from all ages and quit of them are older
than me. I think this is a benefit for me so I can gain some
experience from them. For example, I have met Yousof he was
in Aviation program and have a scholarship from Saudia
10. Airline. He was the first one who created this group and I
learned how to manage this club and deal with great people. It
is a great opportunity to have a subculture here in U. S., which
makes us share and explain our culture to Americans. Moreover,
I have many classes I need to share my opinion. In the
meanwhile we are supposed to speak more English and to be
fluent speakers. Also, in order to be a membership of this club I
have to have at least 3.0 on your GPA which I am blessed to
have this rule so I keep working hard and to keep my GPA up.
In conclusion, I found that joining a non-academic discourse
helped my academic life in many aspects. First, I could be
introduce to the options of studying aboard, and with the help of
my, future classmates at the time, I got to know more about
Utah state university. Second, getting to involve in the Saudi
Student club at USU allowed me to live a unique experience.
Third, the rules applied to us helped to develop a unique
approach to social life within USU campus. This allowed me to
make friends with many international student and American as
will. Fourth, having the outcome from the previous experiences
allowed me to involved with all my sensation in the academic
life. Having the wright friends and write mental preparation
made it much easier. I owe my friends and the Saudi the club
everything for letting me live this wonderful experience.

Study Abroad
My childhood was creepy for many reasons such as my skin
11. color and my accent. Also, I was like to play video games such
as PlayStation, Xbox, and other video games. When I was 16
years old specifically in the first year of the high school, my
friend Yazeed and I were thinking about studying abroad. He
was thinking about studying in the U.K, and I was thinking
about studying at the U.S. we had a many goals we would like
to do when we study abroad, such as, meet new friends, learn
about a new culture, and learn a new language. He was thinking
about studying Civil Engineering and I was thinking about
Business. We asked our parents about this idea, my father
agreed to me to study in U.S, but Yazeed father disagreed with
this idea for many reasons, including being scared for him to go
to different country. I was excited about that but at the same
time I was sad for my friend. I started to get ready to study
abroad. I also, asked my father and my friends about a good
university in U.S, and I found Utah State University a good
choice for my major. Finally I arrived in U.S, and studied the
first level in the Intensive English Language Institute (IELI) at
Utah State University (USU). I changed my major to Computer
Science because I love the technology. That was the best year
and half year of my life because of many reasons such as, living
in different country alone.
When I was 12 years old until 16 years old I was like to stay
alone in my rom and do not talk with any body such as my
family and my friends. Let me tall you my story, my mother
from Syria and my father from Saudi Arabia, so my skin color is
white like my mother family, my hear is brown like my mother
family, my accent was mix between Saudi accent and Syrian
accent, so I was a litter different look to my brothers and I was
different to my friends In my school in Saudi Arabia. So that
why I was like to stay alone. My family was scared to me, and
always asked me to go out with them but always I said “No I
want to stay in my room” I had many of the video games such as
PlayStation and Xbox, so I was addicted to play video gams and
stay for 10 hours continual. That was bad for my health, bad for
my ayes and bad for my ears because I used the headphones.
12. There are many of my friends have hearing less and they have a
low vision because the light of the TV is so shining. So when I
have 16 years old I was thinking about what I do and what I did
to my body, so I started to change my self to better and start to
talk with other people, hangout with my family and have a new
friend. My family was happy for me and for what I did to
change my self. That was my bad moments because I didn’t take
care to my body and my brain.
When I was in the high school in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, my
friend and I were thinking to study abroad but in different
country he wanted to study civil engineering in U.K because he
likes the British culture and I wanted to study business major in
U.S because I like the American culture. So we asked our
parents about our idea to study abroad. My father agreed with
this idea but Yazeed father disagreed with that, because his
father was scared for Yazeed to study abroad, also Yazeed he is
the eldest son in his family so that is why his father disagreed. I
was so exited and happy to study abroad, but at the same time I
was sad for my friend because he cannot study in U.K.
However, I started to look at the universities in the U.S. and
what the good choice for my major business. I sent all my
documents to the USU Admissions department for the
acceptance letter. Also, I started sent my passport to the U.S.
embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for get the student Visa.
Finally, in November 2013 I got my acceptance letter and my
passport with the visa. Moreover, I search to anyone In Logan
can help me to find an apartment to I can live in it, I found a
page in Facebook called Saudi student club at Utah State
University (SSCAUSU). So I sent email for them about looking
for anyone can help me. I received answer from them said “
welcome to USU and we will help you with anything you need.
Also, we will be in the airport to take you to Logan and your
apartment.” So when I received that email I think now I am
ready to leave my family and my country, that moment was
really sad to me because I will leave my family for five years.
On December 15, 2013 I arrived to U.S. and at the airport I
13. found one of the Saudi club waiting to take me to Logan City.
So I cannot forget them help when I arrived to U.S.
On January 5, 2014 I tested the language test at IELI program.
Than I received the score and got the first level of the program,
because I did not have a good English to I can start studying my
major. I met new friends in the IELI program from different
countries, for example, from Dominican Republic, China, Japan
and other countries. The first day of the school was on January
6, 2014. I met the professors in the school and they was really
respected me and welcomed me. In that time I was scared
because I thought every body will laughing on me because I
don’t have a good English to speak with them. So my professor
Jim Bame he helped me with that problem and told me “If you
will staying scared, you will not learn anything. So be confident
of yourself and start take off that fear from inside your brain”
Day after day I learned something new and speak with out any
fear. I cannot forget what the professor Jim did for me. When I
was in the IELI program the professor gave us many
information about the majors in USU and told us everything
about the majors in the USU. So I was thinking about Computer
Science because I like the technology and everything new in the
technology world, such as, phone, computers and cameras. I
asked my professors about that major. They helped me and gave
me everything I need to know about that major. So I just change
my major to Computer Science. On May 5, 2015 I done with the
IELI program and start studying my major.
I have studied at IELI program for one year and half year
(18 months). That year and half was my best experience in my
life because I got many experience. Such as, learned new
language, meet new friends, and self-reliance. I was alone with
out any member of my family but I met friends they are like my
brothers and my family, they helped me a lot and we had and
still have fun and trust between each other. May God bless my
friends.
My real life started from16 years old. It was time to be a
man and its time to think what I will be in the future. Leave my
14. family and my country, studying at the U.S, learned new
language, have many experience and self-reliance, met friends
who I can trust, and met professors who change my life for the
better. I never can forget those people in my life. I do not regret
the moment that I decided to study abroad.

Airplane change the world
“Not a single human being had ever flown a powered
aircraft when the 20th century began”(Airplane. N.P.). The
flying was a dream for millions of people. The first flight was
"12 seconds and carried one man 120 feet." Today there are
more then 1000 airplanes flying in the sky and nonstop flights
lasting from 15 to 19 hours carry hundreds of people. In the
begging of airplane, the entire world uses the airplane in every
thing, traveling, transport of goods and in the war. (Airplane -
Greatest Engineering Achievements of the Twentieth Century.
N.P.)
“Bonfires and beacons showed the way for early tentative
transcontinental flights in the 1920s.”(Airplane. N.P.) “Now
complex computerized systems of navigation and air traffic
control manage skies filled with as many as 50,000 planes a day
over the United States.” (Airplane. N.P.) The airplane changed
the world forever, not only in the army but in the business also.
Now the plane takes a few hours to traveling to different
15. continent and different ocean, “the globe has grown small
indeed, and propelling virtually every one of aviation's great
leaps.” (Airplane. N.P.) The first plane was hard to the human
controlling it in a sustained flight, presented a number of
distinct engineering problems: structural, aerodynamic, control,
and propulsion. “As the 19th century came to a close,
researchers on both sides of the Atlantic were tinkering their
way to solutions”. ("Airplane History Part 1 - Early Years -
Greatest Engineering Achievements of the Twentieth Century.
N.P)
Orville and Wilbur Wright the first brothers who make the
first airplane and flying more than 1 hour, they learned much
from "Paris-born Chicago engineer Octave Chanute. In
1894."(Airplane Timeline. N.P) “The brothers also benefited
from the work during the 1890s of Otto Lilienthal, a German
inventor who had designed and flown several different glider
models”. “Lilienthal, and some others, had crafted wings that
were curved, or cambered, on top and flat underneath, a shape
that created lift by decreasing the air pressure over the top of
the wing and increasing the air pressure on the bottom of the
wing. By experimenting with some Airplane in the wind tunnel,
the Wrights took care on the cambered wings and then studied
such factors as wing design.
("Airplane Timeline - Greatest Engineering Achievements of the
Twentieth Century." N.P.)
“In1901s, first successful flying model propelled by an
internal combustion engine” (Airplane Timeline. N.P) Samuel
Pierpont Langley builds a gasoline in 1896s. "In 1903s, first
flight with a powered. “Wilbur covers 852 feet over the ground
in 59 seconds”. In 1905 they introduce the Flyer, the first actual
airplane in the world. “In 1910s, first take off from a ship”.
Eugene Ely pilots a Curtiss biplane on the first flight. “In
January 1911 he takes off from shore and lands on a ship
anchored off the coast of California”. “In 1914s Automatic
gyrostabilizer leads to first automatic pilot”. After tow years,
"Sperry and his inventor father, Elmer, add a steering gyroscope
16. to the stabilizer gyro and demonstrate the first automatic
pilot."(Airplane Timeline. N.P) “In 1918s, Airmail service
inaugurated” on February 22, 1920, the first transcontinental
mail arrives in New York from San Francisco in 33 hours, about
3 days faster than mail delivery by train. “In 1927s, first
nonstop solo flight across the Atlantic" On May 21, Charles
Lindbergh completes the first nonstop solo flight across the
Atlantic."(Airplane Timeline. N.P) At 2,400 miles it is the
longest on the sea with about non stops flight to date.
("Airplane Timeline - Greatest Engineering Achievements of the
Twentieth Century.")
In the end the flying was a dream for millions of people.
But now its true and every one use it to travel, send the goods
to different countries, and use the plane in the war. The airplane
is the biggest and important transportation in the world Which
helped safely to the development the community at this time,
which has transferred the whole world a quantum leap as it
worked to shorten the distances between people in different
places around the world. However, the only negatives of the
aircraft we observe in the wars with it may also be positive in
the wars in some cases, but in the World War, for example,
significantly contributed to the killing of millions of people in
the world, but this is only simple part compared with the
positives things, as It has helped to saving the lives of millions
of people around the world also. The airplanes and many other
roles in various operations such as fire fighting, as the aircraft
used is very large for the rapid transport of water to the fire,
switch it off place as quickly as possible without endangering
people's lives at risk during this process most of the fire-
fighting operations rely at most on aircraft to carry out this
operation, in addition to search and rescue operations, which
hugely are using aircraft and this because they tool up fast and
accurate search for the missing and at risk. Moreover, It also
contributed safely to the development the business process at
the global level as it is which is very large is the transport of
goods between all countries of the world and in amount too
17. large work forces less, and without fear of the dangers that were
facing the people when the transport of goods by road as in the
past from the predators and other hazards. So we can forget this
history and what Orville and Wilbur Wright did for the world.
