paper writing 80

/in /by

Write a scintillating, well-written essay of 6 pages in response. You must narrow the scope of your thesis and argument to fit the page limit. Please follow the guideline for quotation.Your essay should feature the following:

  • a focused interpretive argument about the meaning of Shakespeare’s plays. Keep plot summary to a minimum; assume that your reader has read the plays once, but may be unaware of deeper implications.
  • a clearly-stated thesis statement early in the essay which articulates your argument. This statement should do more than just announce the topic of the paper, and it should avoid the”similarities and differences” formula. Underline your thesis statement.
  • at least one passage in which you analyze a passage from the playscript closely at some length. This section of your paper should demonstrate your attention to nuances of language and imagery, subtleties of characterization, and key ideas and issues. Fully explain the meaning of all details or quotations you cite, and place details and quotations in their dramatic context.

Writing question:

At first glance, Sir Toby Belch from Twelfth Night and Sir John Falstaff from I Henry IV andHenry V are remarkably similar characters–both are fallen knights, both enjoy copious drink and hearty merriment, both are ringleaders of a small community of fellow revelers, both have vexed relationships with figures of authority. Compare and contrast these figures, focusing on ONE element or quality that you find particularly important, revealing, or significant. Develop a thesis about how and why Shakespeare revises this popular character type across the two plays. Pay some attention to the question “so what?” as you are developing your analysis: why is the element or quality you’ve analyzed important to our understanding of these characters and the plays in which they appear?

DEVELOPMENT QUESTIONS: This question might be developed in several ways:

• treat Sir Toby Belch as a revision of Sir John Falstaff: what element(s) did Shakespeare choose to change when he returned to this character in Twelfth Night? Exactly how did he change him? Why?

  • you might trace the development of each character in the course of his particular play–do you sense a change in our attitude toward these characters as the play progresses? What accounts for that change (or lack of it)?
  • you might trace this character’s relationship with another character–say, Toby’s with Aguecheek and Falstaff’s with Prince Henry–paying close attention to what that relationship reveals about Toby’s and Falstaff’s character or function within the play.
  • you might trace how these characters illuminate one of Shakespeare’s central ideas, themes or issues within both plays, though in perhaps subtly contrasting or vastly different ways.

essay revise 2

/in /by

Hello, the Portfolio version requirement is the same as last one. This one only require 1500 words. However this one need more works because the original essay you wrote was a bit off topic. Consider the time given, I am cool with it and didn’t leave feedback. Portfolio version would require more works and I would attach the essay, teacher’s feedback, and original prompt below.

Feedback: The formatting of your essay adhered to MLA Style standards, so keep up the good work on that front! Unfortunately, your essay did not really address the prompt. The prompt called on you to discuss three characteristics that are either positive or negative attributes for a type of person. For example, you could have discussed what three personality traits make up a good co-worker. Or you could have talked about what three traits make for a terrible friend. Your use of figurative language in your writing was great, but try including more examples for these traits than just one person.

Prompt:

Assignment: Using your family, friends, and observations of others around you, in books, in film, on television and such, write an essay categorizing the negative or positive characteristics of people. Your thesis must be narrowed to a specific topic and contain a debatable thesis (an opinion) that links the three types of people. For example, A, B, and C are the most maddening types of people (the clingy, the gossipy, and the judgmental for ex.); A, B, and C are the most valuable types of people to befriend; A, B, and C make the best coworkers; A, B, and C are the most productive types of people; A, B, and C are the most irritating people to be around; People who are A, B, and/or C make for terrible romantic partners, etc. Obviously you are replacing “A, B, and C” with characteristics. Click on Types of People in Week 3’s modules for ideas of narrowing your topic. Think of adjectives that would describe the people around you. I expect all grammar, syntax, and punctuation to be flawless before I see it, so seek tutoring in the LRC (first floor of library) at the Writing Center (EngW020) or at the Tutoring Center.

Essay Requirements (See Weeks 1-3 and Ch. 2-8 for more specific guidance)

  1. Pre-write to generate ideas (Consider visiting your journal writings for ideas)
  2. The last page of your essay should be a brief, formal outline of your essay (paragraph by paragraph) (see p. 62-64 for guidance)
  3. Use MLA format (see p. 742) (double-spaced, 12pt. font, Times New Roman or Courier New, etc.)
  4. Use two or more hooks in your introduction: Anecdote, Quotation, Profound Question or Statement, the Opposition, Statistic or Fact, Description, Definition, Comparison (simile/met.), or Brief, Engaging Background Information. Be sure to transition into the next sentence after each hook.
  5. Please state your debatable thesis (must satisfy prompt) at the end of paragraph one for this essay.
  6. Before, after, or connected to your thesis, state the preview of points/reasons (what your different supporting paragraphs will be about). Use parallel structure for this list. Challenge yourself and try to include these within your thesis sentence. If you remember, use bold font for your thesis statement and underline your preview (reasons in support of your thesis)
  7. Note that each supporting paragraph has a topic sentence that not only introduces the paragraph topic but also reflects the idea set forth in your thesis statement. This should insure paragraph unity.
  8. After the topic sentence, a paragraph will include support for the statement made in the TS. Make sure there are transitions between your examples and between supporting paragraphs to ensure coherence

  9. Required Support (evidence in supporting paragraphs)

  • For this version of Essay #2, bring in Personal, Observational (such as current events), and/or Hypothetical Examples. Examples need to be descriptive: include concrete detail, senses, dialog, similes/metaphors, lively adj., adv., and verbs.
  • Be sure to analyze the examples you provide to explain how each example proves the topic sentence of each paragraph. See chapters 6-8 for guidance.
  • No Research for this version of Essay #2
  • Analyze All Examples: After each example, perform an analysis: Probe the example in order to explain how it proves the topic sentence. Ask yourself how and why the evidence relates to your topic sentence (and thus your thesis since your thesis is alluded to in your topic sentences). In other words, in order to explain how your example proves your topic sentence, you will need to analyze your examples such as particular words, images, references, and so forth.
  • Incorporate a variety of Modes of Development such as narration, description, exemplification, comparison/Contrast, Process Analysis, Division/Analysis, Classification, Cause/Effect, Definition, Argument/Persuasion
  • Concluding Sentence: The concluding sentence will summarize the argument being made. It may re-affirm why the argument is correct and the consequences that may occur if the argument is not heeded. If your paragraph is short and easy-to-follow, you may omit a concluding sentence. You can also use this sentence to link to the topic in the next paragraph (or you can instead tack on such transitional phrases to the beginning of the next paragraph’s topic sentence).

10. Concluding Paragraph:

The end of an essay should therefore convey a sense of completeness and closure as well as a sense of the lingering possibilities of the topic, its larger meaning, its implications: the final paragraph should close the discussion without closing it off. You could give a recommendation, call to action, or prediction. Refer to the conclusion handout for help.

10. Grammar/Sentence Skills Requirements

: One of our Student Outcomes for the class is for you to be able to edit your own work. Proofread for flawless academic English, varying sentence structures, figurative language, etc. Use formal language (not to be interpreted as fluffy, flowery, or verbose) instead of the vernacular or slang.

Social Program Description and Assessment

Unit 9

Assignment Overview

An effective way to learn how to evaluate social programs or policies is to focus on a social problem of interest to you and then proceed as Chambers and Bonk do, by engaging in the following:

  • Understand the epistemological boundaries of the problem definition.
  • Recognize the origins of the problem and its causes and consequences.
  • Comprehend who is impacted by this problem, both negatively and positively.
  • Recognize what those gains or losses look like and their magnitudes.

Additionally, Chambers and Bonk (2013) suggest that you must understand the historical and judicial contexts of the problem (p. 185). Once these elements are clarified, you can identify a specific program or policy designed to address the identified social problem.

By successfully completing this assignment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following competencies and behaviors:

  • Competency 5: Engage in Policy Practice.
    • C5.GP.C: Apply critical thinking to analyze, formulate, and advocate for policies that advance human rights and social, economic, and environmental justice.
      • Related Assignment Criteria:
        • 2. Describe a program or policy designed to address a given social problem.

Assignment Description

Just as Chambers and Bonk (2013) have done in the final chapter of their text, you, as a social program and policy learner, can apply the evaluation criteria discussed in the course to a social program or policy of your choice. In this assessment, you will apply the following elements to determine the efficiency and effectiveness of the program selected:

  • Program goals and objectives.
  • Eligibility rules.
  • The form of the benefit.
  • How services are delivered.
  • How the program is financed.

It is also important to assess the quality and quantity of the interactions between these elements as well as those between this program or policy and others (Chambers & Bonk, 2013, p. 185).

Assignment Instructions

For this assignment, complete the following:

  • Explain a chosen social problem. In your description, include:
    • Ideological or value parameters.
    • Origins, causes, and consequences of problem.
    • The specific groups or population impacted by the problem.
    • The impacts and their magnitudes.
    • The historical and judicial contexts of the problem.
  • Select a group that experiences the chosen social problem. This group can be distinguished by race, religion, socioeconomic status, gender orientation, or other characteristics.
  • Describe a program or policy designed to address the selected social problem. When selecting a program, choose a small program or internal policy that is manageable, and whose description and mission statement are concise enough to fit on one to two pages.
    • Include the following components in your description of the program: mission statement or goals, and objectives; eligibility rules; form of benefit; administration; service delivery; and financing.
  • Analyze interactions between these elements within the program itself.
  • Compare and contrast this program’s eligibility requirements with those of a similar program.
  • Explain at least one recommendation to improve the quality of the program you have selected.

Respond to Johnny:

When evaluating current strategies for local and state law enforcement and corrections agencies to prepare or respond to threats such as active shooters, terrorism threats, radicalization within prisons, and intelligence or cyber threats the first step is to understand the enemies capabilities through the intelligence gathering process. When reviewing the importance of data collection and data analysis it gives us trends, common methods, statistics, and a better understanding of the threat. Additionally the methods to avoid common inconsistencies in a complex operation is by ensuring that personnel involved has a good understanding of the threat and operations procedure (Bachman, 2010). This can be achieved through training, implemented standard operational procedures, funding, and a solid foundation of intelligence that is credible.

Mass shootings have took place in multiple locations within the United States this past decade to include a mass shooting rampage at a Las Vagas concert that killed fifty-eight people while injuring many more. The shooter used a high rise building above the concert to gain an advantage in vision and distance himself from emergency responders during the rampage which allowed him to continuously kill as he pleased until law enforcement could reach him to stop the shooting. Ideally events such as this law enforcement have not actively or effectively been trained to deal with as reports would suggest (Seebock, 2018). The idea that law enforcement are equipped to deal with snipers, heavy machine gunners, or high explosive attacks is not what local and state law enforcement officers were trained to do. Let’s think about the average beat cop whose sole purpose is to assist, protect, and defend its everyday citizens from hazards and to enforce the laws of their county, city, and state. These officers did not attend an Army Basic Combat Training, or complete an Infantry Training Course through the military in which would gear them to conduct squad movements under fire, react to ambushes, and maneuver through a firefight to gain fire superiority over the enemy. The general public has a misconception that law enforcement is capable of responding to combat as if they were the National Guard or Active Army. However by requiring police officers to meet these demands would impose that the law enforcement training centers add combat training to the curriculum and approve additional funds for machines guns, ammunitions, explosives, and protective equipment. Although great training from a firsthand experience I don’t believe that the vision of law enforcement is to replace the National Guard and their responsibilities. Ideally having a SWAT Team or SRT force is that grey middle area where advanced training is required to meet these types of threats until the National Guard is needed to take over the situation.

Radicalization within prisons has always been a national security concern as it tends to breed new enemies of the state. Studies have shown that the radicalization process has happened all over the world in different countries and different prisons. While the enemy seeks to recruit its members who are looking for a group or purpose during their vulnerable state while incarcerated makes them an easy target for radicalization (Awan, 2013). The idea to combat this would make have come from the corrections world in how they conduct day to day operations and that’s not allowing such propaganda and or heresy be spread throughout its facilities. While a bit touchy due to human rights and civil rights I believe that controlling reading materials and media is a prime way to steer the attention elsewhere.
