Characteristics of Living Things (50 points)
Living things share 8 characteristics (listed in Chapter 1 of your textbook on page 19). A living thing grows, undergoes metabolism, responds to its environment, reproduces, passes DNA to the next generation, maintains homeostasis, changes over time, and is made up of cells. A non-living thing may seem to do one or more of these things, but to be classified as living; all eight characteristics must be present. Sometimes, you may see something that seems alive but is not. Though you can’t see it, you have likely experienced it; one of those things is a virus.
Answer BOTH of the following questions:
1. Using all 8 of the characteristics that define life, indicate which one(s) viruses have and which one(s) they do not, and explain each difference.
2. With these results, present an argument that a virus is a living thing. Then, present the opposite argument that viruses are not alive.
You can fill out a table like this (though this is not required):
Characteristic
Virus
(yes, no, maybe, sort of)
Explanation
Reproduce
Pass along their traits through DNA
Consume energy sources and expel waste products to maintain homeostasis
Respond to their environments
Respond to stimulus
Change over time
Can differ as individuals while still being part of a species
Are made up of cells
Review the following videos to understand what viruses are and how they work:
· Flu Attack! How a Virus Invades Your Body
· What is a Virus? How do Viruses Work?
Reading these discussions may help you to form your arguments on the status of viruses:
· Are Viruses Alive?
· Are Viruses Alive? Although Viruses Challenge Our Concept of What "Living" Means, They Are Vital Members of the Web of Life
Follow these guidelines for your paper:
· Utilize at least 1 credible source to support the arguments presented in the paper. Make sure you cite appropriately within your paper, and list the reference(s) in APA format on your Reference page.
· Your paper should be 1–2 pages in length, not counting the Title page and Reference page.

WRITING ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAYSFor most people, the true test
WRITING ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAYS
For most people, the true test of their critical thinking skills comes when they write an argumentative essay, one that takes a stand on an issue and uses logic and evidence to convince readers. When you write an argument, you follow the same process you use when you write any essay. However, because the purpose of an argument is to change the way readers think, you need to use some additional strategies to present your ideas to your audience.
A)
Planning an Argumentative Essay
1) Choosing a Debatable Topic
Because an argumentative essay attempts to change the way people think, it must focus on a
debatable topic
, one about which reasonable people may disagree. Factual statements—verifiable assertions about which reasonable people do not disagree—are, therefore, not suitable as topics for argument.
Fact:
First-year students are not required to purchase a meal plan from the university.
Debatable Topic:
First-year students should be required to purchase a meal plan from the university.
Your topic should be narrow enough so that you can write about it within your page limit. Remember, in your argumentative essay, you will have to develop your own ideas and present convincing support while also pointing out the strengths and weaknesses of opposing arguments. If your topic is too broad, you will not be able to treat it in enough detail.
In addition, your topic should be interesting to you and to your readers. Keep in mind that some topics—such as “The Need for Gun Control” or “The Fairness of the Death Penalty”—have been discussed and written about so often that you may not be able to say anything new or interesting about them. Instead of relying on an overused topic, choose one that enables you to contribute something to the debate.
2) Developing an Argumentative Thesis
After you have chosen a topic, your next step is to state your position in an
argumentative thesis
, one that takes a strong stand. Properly worded, this thesis statement lays the foundation for the rest of your argument. One way to make sure that your thesis statement actually does take a stand is to formulate an
antithesis
, a statement that takes the opposite position. If you can state an antithesis, your thesis statement takes a stand.
Thesis Statement:
Term limits would improve government by bringing people with fresh ideas into office every few years.
Antithesis:
Term limits would harm government because elected officials would always be inexperienced.
To make sure your argumentative thesis is effective, ask the following questions:
Is your thesis one with which reasonable people would disagree?
Can you formulate an antithesis?
Can your thesis be supported by evidence?
Does your thesis make clear to readers what position you are taking?
3) Defining Your Terms
You should always define the key terms you use in your argument— especially those you use in your thesis statement. After all, the soundness of an ...

1. Make sure you’re providing realistic solutions to the issue you.docx
1. Make sure you’re providing realistic solutions to the issue you are discussing, not that administration needs to fix it. The purpose of this assignment is not just to present a problem in detail. It’s also to provide realistic solutions.
2. There are some APA Guidelines to consider
a. Avoid excessive first-person language
b. Keep direct quotes to a minimum
c. All sections need headings to guide the reader
d. Make sure you have a purpose statement in the first paragraph
e. Provide a formal conclusion section
f. Make sure if you use abbreviations you define what they mean
3. Make sure to answer any questions the professor asked in the feedback on your Week 2 assignment and explore topics he suggested you address
The second assignment is a 5-page paper that builds on the first paper. You may want to consolidate your first assignment to make your argument more concise and allow space to answer all the suggestions for this new paper, which include:
1. Review the feedback you received on the first assignment, especially issues like:Add 2-3 additional references to support your presentation. You always may add more scholarly references to strengthen your argument.
a. Make sure you have a purpose statement and clearly labeled conclusion section
b. Use paragraph headings to guide the reader and make it easy for the professor to see where you have met the requirements for the assignment
c. Spell check your document
d. Make sure to follow APA Guidelines including minimal use of first-person language, direct quotes, and that everything is properly referenced. For instance if you’re going to mention your organization, put in the name of the organization: Acme Hospital, rather than misusing first person language and saying my organization.
e. This is not an editorial/opinion paper/assignment, thus all points you make must be supported with a scholarly reference.
f. Read the information I posted in the Announcement section with tips for writing an academic paper.
2. In terms of the specifics of this assignment, the new section added to your previous assignment should include:
a. Identification and description of at least two competing needs that impact the issue you addressed in your first assignment. Please note I may have made some suggestions in your feedback about what to make sure to address in this assignment.
b. Describe any relevant policies or practices in your organization or nursing in general, such as from professional organizations or regulatory bodies that may influence your topic.
c. Explore the moral and ethical considerations, related to your suggested solution to issue you selected. How does your solution specifically promote ethics?
d. Recommend one or more policy or practice change designed to balance the competing needs of resources, workers, and patients, while addressing any ethical and financial shortcomings of the existing policies. Be specific and provide examples. Please make sure your solution is financially viable, as an.

Workplace violence, especially in psychiatric settings, is a significant issue that impacts both patient and staff safety. It can lead to injuries, high turnover rates among staff, and other problems. Several strategies have been found to help reduce violence, such as conducting risk assessments, providing de-escalation training to staff, implementing rapid response teams, improving nurse-patient ratios, and making environmental design changes. While ensuring complete safety is impossible, healthcare organizations should treat violence prevention as a high priority through implementing evidence-based practices and recommendations.

Week 7 Discussion
Theory in Action: Cognitive and Behavioral Approaches
Have you ever heard the term “positive addiction”? In general, this term is used to describe the act of replacing a negative addiction, like smoking, with a positive activity, like exercising. Both smoking and exercising can be perceived as a means to reduce stress; however the act of exercising is clearly the healthier option of the two. William Glasser, the founder of reality therapy was the first to introduce this term. Glasser believed that these positive addictions can increase the strength and motivation that people feel in their lives.
Have you ever stood on a crowded elevator and considered singing a song? Did you know that this could actually be an intervention used by a cognitive-behavioral counselor called a
shame-attacking exercise
? In shame-attacking exercises, clients engage in an activity that others around them might disapprove of, thus causing shame to the client. Experiencing the brief discomfort caused by these actions is thought to decrease feelings of social anxiety and self-consciousness.
For this week’s Discussion, you consider which theoretical approach most resonates with you: reality therapy or a generalized CBT approach. You then watch the media piece that translates this theory into practice. Specifically, you examine how the counselor depicted in the media used your selected theoretical approach to guide his or her interventions.

make an argument about how those pieces demonstrate significant development of your writing, your thinking, and/or your research skills. It is also a place where you can address more specifically your relationship to the goals of the course. You will select one of the FWP Outcomes that resonates with you, and you will use reflective analysis as a tool to closely examine a variety of your own compositions over a period of time. Reflective analysis helps you to make an evidence-based argument about yourself, a skill that will benefit you not only here at Drexel, but also outside of Drexel. In your personal, academic, and professional life, it will be important to establish and reflect on goals, to periodically examine what you have accomplished, and to ask critical questions about your learning: What did I hope to accomplish in this class/project/ experience? How did I grow as a person, scholar, or professional? What evidence do I have for that growth? How does this growth prepare me for what is next? In many contexts, you will be asked to discuss, either in person or in writing, what kind of student or employee you will be. In these contexts, it is reflective analysis that will allow you to examine your experience for the evidence you need to construct clear and honest answers for yourself and others.
As you move through the FWP sequence, the Writing Portfolio will give you lots of
practice in doing reflective analysis, which will help you to work toward two of the FWP
Outcomes (and others, too):
1. Students will reflect on their own and others’ writing and communication
processes and practices. They will learn that the term “writer” applies to
themselves and their peers.
2. Students will use writing to embrace complexity and think about open-ended
questions.
The skills you gain by closely examining your compositions, and by making larger claims about your writing abilities based on the compositions you include, will help to prepare you for the reflective analysis you will be asked to do later in your academic and professional life.
English 102 Writing Portfolio and Reflective Analysis Assignment
Your Reflective Analysis should accomplish four tasks:
1. It should make an argument about your writing development. Read the
FWP Outcomes and choose ONE of the Outcomes as the focus for your
argument. You have lots of options here.
2. It should use pieces of your own writing as evidence for your argument.
Specifically, you should integrate the following compositions as sources in
your analysis:
a. 1 major project from 101
b. 1 major project from 102
c. 2 informal compositions from either 101 or 102
d. Any other supporting compositions you would like to use
3. It should do “meta-analysis” of those artifacts as it makes its argument.

(Page 132) G. Prewriting: Using the Toulmin Model to Get Ideas for a Position Paper
You have used the Toulmin model in Exercises B through F to read and analyze other people’s argument. Now use it to identify the main parts of an argument you will write. You may use the model to help you plan any argument paper. Use the Toulmin model as a prewriting exercise to help you develop ideas for a position paper.
1. Write the claim. All of the rest of your paper will support this claim.
2. Write the support. Write two or three subclaims you will develop in the paper. To help you do this, write the word “because” after the claim, and list reasons that support it. Also jot down ideas for specific support for these subclaims, such as examples, facts, opinions, or visual images that come from your reading of the essays or from your own experience.

Toulmin Analysis of the “Road Trip” Cartoon
Identifies claim and support.
The reader has to infer the claim of this cartoon since it is not directly stated. The claim is that screens have replaced face-to-face conversation as the primary way people now interact with each other. The support is provided by the driver of the car, who notes how much lonelier car trips have become, and the other passengers, all of whom are focused on their smartphones and tablets.
Analyzes warrant.
The implied warrant is that screen-based technology makes us more isolated and disconnected from each other.
Identifies backing.
The backing is also implied and reinforced by the picture. It suggests that road trips are valuable opportunities for connection and conversation that many families are giving up. It also reinforces the common belief that interacting with screens is more appealing than interacting directly with people face-to-face.
Infers rebuttal.
No direct rebuttal or qualifier appears in this cartoon. I think, however, that this cartoon could be considered as a rebuttal to those who think that screen-based communication is always superior to face-to-face communication. As a rebuttal, this cartoon highlights the negative consequences of embracing screen-based communication.
3. Write the warrants. Decide whether to spell out the warrants in your paper or to leave them implicit so that the reading audience will have to infer them.
4. Decide on the backing. Assume that your classmates are your audience. They may be reading drafts of your paper. In your judgment, will some of them require backing for any of your warrants because they will not agree with them otherwise? If so, how can you back these warrants? Write out your ideas.
5. Plan rebuttal. Think about the positions others may hold on this issue. You identified some of these positions in your exploratory paper. Write out your strategies for weakening these arguments.
6. Decide whether to qualify the claim to make it more convincing to more people. Write one or more qualifiers that might work.

Here is a 4 line quotation integrated into a sentence in my essay:
According to leading health expert Dr. Susan Smith, making healthy choices is about more than just weight loss or appearance. As she states:
"Health is about feeling your best both physically and mentally. It's finding energy and joy in everyday activities rather than feeling drained. Making small changes like adding more vegetables or taking a walk after dinner can lead to big improvements in overall well-being."
This quotation effectively captures Dr. Smith's perspective that health is about overall wellness, not just physical appearance or numbers on a scale. Focusing on small, sustainable lifestyle changes and how they can enhance quality of life is a motivating message.

Diverse work teams can foster innovation but may also face communication difficulties.
The Travels of Sir John Mandeville.docx
The prompt analyzes The Travels of Sir John Mandeville, a 14th century account of the author's purported journeys around the world. It examines how Mandeville conceptualized and structured his depiction of the world, how he connected different peoples and cultures, and what criteria he used to determine inclusion and exclusion in his narrative. The prompt also considers how Mandeville's work relates to and expands upon previous historical accounts, and how his portrayal of non-European cultures fits into discussions about the inherent Eurocentrism of Western thinking. Students are asked to analyze Mandeville's text as a piece of primary evidence that provides insight into late medieval European perspectives on self and other.

Workplace violence, especially in psychiatric settings, is a significant issue that impacts both patient and staff safety. It can lead to injuries, high turnover rates among staff, and other problems. Several strategies have been found to help reduce violence, such as conducting risk assessments, providing de-escalation training to staff, implementing rapid response teams, improving nurse-patient ratios, and making environmental design changes. While ensuring complete safety is impossible, healthcare organizations should treat violence prevention as a high priority through implementing evidence-based practices and recommendations.

Week 7 Discussion
Theory in Action: Cognitive and Behavioral Approaches
Have you ever heard the term “positive addiction”? In general, this term is used to describe the act of replacing a negative addiction, like smoking, with a positive activity, like exercising. Both smoking and exercising can be perceived as a means to reduce stress; however the act of exercising is clearly the healthier option of the two. William Glasser, the founder of reality therapy was the first to introduce this term. Glasser believed that these positive addictions can increase the strength and motivation that people feel in their lives.
Have you ever stood on a crowded elevator and considered singing a song? Did you know that this could actually be an intervention used by a cognitive-behavioral counselor called a
shame-attacking exercise
? In shame-attacking exercises, clients engage in an activity that others around them might disapprove of, thus causing shame to the client. Experiencing the brief discomfort caused by these actions is thought to decrease feelings of social anxiety and self-consciousness.
For this week’s Discussion, you consider which theoretical approach most resonates with you: reality therapy or a generalized CBT approach. You then watch the media piece that translates this theory into practice. Specifically, you examine how the counselor depicted in the media used your selected theoretical approach to guide his or her interventions.

Composition Project 3: Writing Portfolio
Your Writing Portfolio is an online space where you gather pieces of your writing and
make an argument about how those pieces demonstrate significant development of your writing, your thinking, and/or your research skills. It is also a place where you can address more specifically your relationship to the goals of the course. You will select one of the FWP Outcomes that resonates with you, and you will use reflective analysis as a tool to closely examine a variety of your own compositions over a period of time. Reflective analysis helps you to make an evidence-based argument about yourself, a skill that will benefit you not only here at Drexel, but also outside of Drexel. In your personal, academic, and professional life, it will be important to establish and reflect on goals, to periodically examine what you have accomplished, and to ask critical questions about your learning: What did I hope to accomplish in this class/project/ experience? How did I grow as a person, scholar, or professional? What evidence do I have for that growth? How does this growth prepare me for what is next? In many contexts, you will be asked to discuss, either in person or in writing, what kind of student or employee you will be. In these contexts, it is reflective analysis that will allow you to examine your experience for the evidence you need to construct clear and honest answers for yourself and others.
As you move through the FWP sequence, the Writing Portfolio will give you lots of
practice in doing reflective analysis, which will help you to work toward two of the FWP
Outcomes (and others, too):
1. Students will reflect on their own and others’ writing and communication
processes and practices. They will learn that the term “writer” applies to
themselves and their peers.
2. Students will use writing to embrace complexity and think about open-ended
questions.
The skills you gain by closely examining your compositions, and by making larger claims about your writing abilities based on the compositions you include, will help to prepare you for the reflective analysis you will be asked to do later in your academic and professional life.

2. It should use pieces of your own writing as evidence for your argument.
Specifically, you should integrate the following compositions as sources in

Two general technology trends in my workplace are that EHRs.docx
Two technology trends in the workplace are increasing use of complex electronic health records (EHRs) and patients using smartphone apps for healthcare. The author discusses their experience transitioning between two EHRs - AURA which was less sophisticated, and EPIC which is more complex but customizable and allows greater communication between providers. Another trend is greater integration of devices and artificial intelligence into EHRs for automated data entry. However, overreliance on technology could replace sound clinical judgment, so nurses must use technology as a tool rather than a replacement for care. Patients are also increasingly using the internet and health apps, so providers should guide patients to evaluate online information for accuracy.
