Need-step-by-step-guide

Hi I would like to get a step-by-step guide for my past year papers. You can submit it as a scanned document if you have to use handwriting to answer it. I can only afford the amount as I a poor student. I would really like to excel in my studies. Thank you for your understanding.

Final-Draft-Psychology-Research-Paper-

Hello, I am pleased with the first rough draft and would like you to go more in depth with each topic since there was no corrections needed to the rough draft. Which was great by the way. The original question was again:

Using the annotated bibliography and references as a guide, write a rough draft of the Psychology Research Paper.

The paper must be 3 pages in length, not including a title page and reference page. The paper must not only describe current trends within the topic area, but you should demonstrate how your topic relates to the broad field of psychology. It should contain a strong thesis statement supported by research from at least 3 different sources. Include both in-text citations and a References page in APA format. I included the annotated bibliography again and the rough draft copies that you sent me. I guess for the final project, could you maybe expand on each topic you have written. I mean, go more in depth with each topic including the conclusion. Try to keep what you have already written but just expand a little more on each topic. This should increase the pages a bit and add more context to the paper. Since it was already amazing work, I am confident this will be even better.

Liberal Arts and other studies in the Humanities develop students into critical thinking, global individuals. But rare is the student who enters college with these aspirations. Most have an interest in getting a good paying job when they graduate, so they choose a profession and build their major accordingly. Some enter college knowing they want to be a teacher or scientist or engineer and they choose the best college for their particular choice of study. Those who choose STEM as their major, in hopes that specializing in a particular field will help to make them look more attractive, might be surprised. “Experts tell us that the industry-specific knowledge of a typical vocational education is exhausted within a few years, if not by the time students enter the workforce” (Jay & Graff, 2012). Convincing arguments for Liberal Arts and other Humanities majors can be found in the film The heart of the matter: A film by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. As John Lithgow described the flower, there is a stem and a blossom. “The stem is just that, STEM, science, technology, engineering and math. But the blossom of the flower is the humanities. Without the blossom, the stem is completely useless; it is just a stem” (American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 2013). George Lucas then explains “sciences are the how; the humanities are the why” (American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 2013). The how is important, yes, but to answer the why, we must use thought and consideration, research and critical thinking to help us develop the why. As Linwood so eloquently stated “professional skills are required only during the professional life of a person, whereas critical thinking skills are important throughout life. Weak arguments: “In an age when a higher education is increasingly about moving quickly through a curriculum streamlined to prepare students for a job, the humanities have no practical utility” (Jay & Graff, 2012). This argument is one-dimensional and short-sighted; it dismisses the personal development that is required in the study of the humanities because it is focused only on the immediate practical market application. The beauty of the humanities is that it develops the student as an individual and provides them with the tools necessary to build their best life. “The humanities are those subject areas that allow us to really probe what it means to be human; the humanities teach us who we are” (American Academy of Arts & Sciences, 2013). Defending Liberal Arts’ value: Those who focus on STEM disciplines miss the bigger picture that majoring in the humanities provides. “The humanities foster critical thinking and the ability to sympathetically imagine the predicament of others; employers outside academe are recognizing the practical value of humanities training” (Jay & Graff, 2012). A Humanities major can fit into any company and brings exceptional value to each position. A Humanities major has good communication skills and can represent any company in the best light due to their well-rounded education. References: Jay, P., & Graff, G. (2012, Jan. 5).

shapes-pen-tool-manipulation-of-shapes-gradients-and-lettering-art-design-homework-help

For this assignment I want you to use all that you have learned so far – shapes, pen tool (manipulation of shapes), gradients and lettering. Some examples: Comic book cover examples.pdfView in a new window

Using Adobe Illustrator – create a document 8 ½” x 11” to make your comic book cover.

When designing your cover think about the following design elements:

Color: Use a limited palette but high contrast.

Composition: Use your space wisely – equalize the positive and negative spaces, find interesting angles and try to be asymmetrical.

Originality: Be creative and unique, try to give your cover your own special personality – don’t just simply copy someone else’s cover. It is ok to look at others’ works to get inspired and get ideas, but just as in art and music, you have to make that “song” or “painting” your own. It is real easy to plagiarize in Graphic Design.

Some Dont’s in this assignment:

No floating heads

Don’t ignore the background

Unreadable wording – Watch were you place words – black lettering on a black surface cannot be read. Small outlined letters do not print legibly. Think hierarchy. Please look at examples!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look at examples – What do all comic book covers have in common? What makes a cover stand out? What makes you want to read a comic book? There are lots of examples on the Internet – just google comic book covers.

You need to turn this assignment in as an Illustrator document.

Project due at beginning of next class.
