Below, you will find an attached document which is basically my short assignment (it is about paraphrasing, basically I paraphrased 4 paragraphs). The document I am attaching contains all the corrections and suggestions made by my English 101 teacher, please apply them all.
1. Is it naive for business leaders to try to be honest?
Please pay particular attention to Alan Greenspan’s Harvard Commencement Speech. (backup PDF here).Provide a key quotation from the speech. You are not obligated to agree with any perspectives in Mr. Greenspan’s speech, but you are expected to consider the question with care; state a clear conclusion; and support your conclusion with convincing arguments.
2. Please read and think about this quotation:
“The mind is fickle and flighty, it flies after fancies and whatever it likes; it is difficult indeed to restrain. But it is a great good to control the mind; a mind self-controlled is a source of great joy.”
—Buddha’s Teachings (Penguin Classics, p. 8).
Identify three strategies you use (or recommend) to strengthen self-control. This optional reading may give you some ideas:
An interview conducted with Roberto Assagioli by Sam Keen.
3. Please read Book One of the Meditations of Roman Emperor and Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius. Then write a concise statement of gratitude (400 words or less) identifying the ethical and intellectual debts you owe to family members, teachers, or friends. Fictitious names are permitted, but the statement of gratitude should be genuine.
4. First, please consider this list of failures and successes in the life of Abraham Lincoln. We’re suggesting that one of Lincoln’s greatest attributes was his ability to recover and learn from failure. The quality of
perseverance seemed especially useful to Lincoln as he struggled with “melancholy” (what might now be called depression)
Please read this related article by Joshua Wolf Shenk.
For Lincoln, learning how to persevere also meant learning how to adapt. Based on your reading of Shenk’s article, please identify three of Lincoln’s most successful adaptation strategies (skills, habits, or ways of thinking) that helped him use his struggle with depression to accomplish worthy goals.
5. The Declaration of Independence refers to the ”pursuit of happiness.” Should the word ”pleasure” be substituted for ”happiness”? Why/why not? Explain your answer.
6. Please read this decision by the Iowa Supreme Court in an attorney discipline case and answer these four questions:
[a] Should judges care if attorneys submit legal briefs or written motions that are plagiarized? Please explain your answer.
[b] Attorney Peter Cannon was punished by the court and by the attorney disciplinary board. Do you think these punishments (taken as a whole) were too lenient, too severe, or about right? Please explain your answer.
[c] The Iowa Supreme Court referred to another case involving attorney plagiarism (Iowa Supreme Court Board of Professional Ethics & Conduct v. Lane). In that case, the punishment for attorney Lane (suspension of his license to practice) was more severe than the punishment imposed on attorney Cannon. What distinction did the court make between these two cases? Do you agree with the court’s reasoning? Please explain your answer.
[d] The state of Florida requires “personal appearances before the [disciplinary] board for public reprimands for disciplined lawyers†[italics added]. Do you think this kind of public shaming is appropriate or too harsh? Please explain your answer.
7. What advice do you have for your fellow students about the best way to avoid committing an act of academic dishonesty?
8. Please review the assigned excerpts from An Anatomy of Life in the Death Camps by Terrence Des Pres. Kindly respond to this question:
“Does Terrence Des Pres think the human moral sense is an
idealistic illusion or an
evolutionary survival strategy?”
Please explain your answer, agreeing or disagreeing with Des Pres’ analysis. Cite at least one of the numbered paragraphs for support.

In Chapter 4 of Action Research: A Guide for the Teacher Researcher, Mills (2014) shares that “ the strength of educational research lies in its triangulation, collecting information in many ways rather than relying solely on one” (p. 104).
Complete the Data collection worksheet to include the following: Area of focus statement Brief description of proposed intervention Table
The following table provides a completed sample of: Up to three research questions (you will have between one and three questions for your study) from Week One Discussion and Assignment. An appropriately aligned data collection tool. An explanation as to how the tool will help you answer your research question.
Research Questions
Data Collection Tool
Why this tool? Justify its use in your study. How does it match with what you are attempting to find and to measure?
Will the incorporation of project-based learning improve students’ state assessment scores as it relates to the Common Core State Standards in comprehending non-fiction text?
District Common Assessments (post-test)
This research question requires quantitative data collection. The answer of this question is either yes, the incorporation improves test scores or no, it does not. District common assessments, which assess Common Core State Standards as well, can also be used for post-test data.
Will the inclusion of project-based learning improve student application of comprehending non-fiction text at a high depth of knowledge level?
Pretests and post-tests
Pre- and post-tests can give quantitative data to support findings in the examination of the artifacts and with the observations.
How does project-based learning integrate clear expectations and essential criteria and remain successful?
Questionnaires
This question seems to only be able to warrant qualitative data collection because it needs first-hand accounts of what expectations and criteria were used that indicated success. Questionnaires can give the researcher an opportunity to view how the teachers instill the expectations in the students.
For an example of a finished triangulation matrix, see page 105 of Action Research: A Guide for the Teacher Researcher.
*Copy and paste the entire document into your discussion post or submit the document as an attachment.
Guided Response: Respond to at least two classmates. Indicate your critique of your classmates’ choices. Do you agree with their selections? Did they consider triangulation of the data in their selections? Comment on the fit between the type of question and the type of data? What changes would you make (if any) to their choices? *It is expected you follow-up by the last day of the week to provide a secondary response to any comments or questions your instructor may have provided. This is part of the grading criteria as a demonstration of critical thinking.

The Rise of Conservatism
Background: Many historians have characterized the period from the Great Depression until the 1970s as a period when liberal politics were dominant. During this period, only Eisenhower interrupted the Democratic hold on the White House. The U.S. Congress remained under Democratic control for the entire period with the exception of two brief two-year periods in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Republicans only finally regained control of the Senate in 1980 and of the House of Representatives in 1994. As such, many Americans look at the 1970s as the beginning of the rise of conservatism.
Required source: Scholarly source: The rise of conservatism since World War II. Website: Pace News Limited. (2013). The Political Compass.
Recommended sources: Scholarly source: ‘Starve the beast’: Origins and development of a budgetary metaphor. Video: The presidents: 1977-2004 [Video] from the Films on Demand database.
Instructions: Explore The Political Compass website and take the quiz. Then, refer to your textbook and required resources. In your initial post, explain At least one piece of information that you found surprising or interesting on the Political Compass website. It is completely voluntary, but if you are comfortable doing so, include your score in your post. At least three reasons for the rise of conservatism in the last part of the 20th century. At least one way in which the rise of conservatism had been positive or negative for a specific group of Americans.
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Your references and citations must be formatted according to APA style as outlined by the Ashford Writing Center. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.

does not need to include a voice over but will need to include a short video to get the audiences attention.
the first file is my annotated bilbli for the 2 image topic choice，and the second file is my image topic choice，and just follow the final paper requirements. And I need outline today
A single image of fashionable dress, as defined by the focus of this course, will serve as the basis for an exploration and analysis of both historical style and the image itself. The image both guides and focuses the paper: a successful paper consistently analyzes the period and each category through the original image. Each paper will address somewhat different topics, but for the most part will consider cultural context, maker/artist, creator/designer, subject/model, materiality, etc. This assignment builds upon the skills developed in Integrative Design Studio and Seminar. Components are due throughout the semester, and each is graded separately (late work and plagiarism policies in effect for each).
Papers are to be five pages; length assumes Times New Roman or similar font (12 point) or 250 words per page, double-spaced, with one-inch margin on all sides, and additional footnotes, illustrations, and bibliography, with formal academic structure and language. Spelling and grammar and the use of Parsons-mandated formatting (Chicago Manual of Style, Turabian, 16th edition) are counted toward your final grade, as well as quality and number (minimum six) of sources.
Final Paper Topic Choice Proposal/February 24 (5%)
Submit a minimum of two images of fashionable dress that you find compelling and would like to work with throughout the semester. Choose a mediated image — one that conveys fashion as well as its cultural context, typically an illustration, photograph or artwork (avoid garments from museum archives, costume collections, textbook); remain within the course range of 1850-1990s. You are strongly encouraged to submit a family photograph as one of your choices. Your instructor will select the option most appropriate for the assignment, so be sure to list in order of preference. This assignment (and Final Presentation) must be posted on the Learning Portfolio – be sure to link your LP to your Profile Page so your instructor can access and grade your work.
For each image provide the following:
1. Basic background information such as date, context, maker/artist, creator/designer, subject/model — whatever is appropriate, given that you will research the totality of information conveyed by the image.
2. Explanation for your choice: Why do you find the image meaningful? Is it the aesthetic? Subject? Emotion? Memory? Narrative?
3. Discussion of its relationship to your design work and/or personal style.
Bibliography and Outline/March 30 (5%)
The quality of your paper depends on the quality of your sources. For this assignment, provide citations and a rationale (why is this information trustworthy?) for the six sources you will use for the final paper. Use only respected scholarly, academic and institutional sources, both online and in print. The use of non-academic sources, including Wikipedia or any general encyclopedia, will receive a half grade reduction. Papers without a bibliography and/or citations/footnotes will receive an F. Olivia Warschaw, Research Librarian, will conduct an in-class session on research practices for this assignment. The Library also offers one-on-one research consultation appointments – reserve a spot through the Services tab on the Library’s website.
