Eight Elements of Thought and Reasoning, assignment help

Eight Elements of Thought and Reasoning

There are eight elements of thought in reasoning. We often use more than one element at the same time. For example, your Point of View includes Assumptions. Therefore, we can assume that these elements are two aspects of the same thing.

For your assignment this week, first begin by analyzing eight elements of thought and reasoning and re-organize them into four distinct categories by pairing elements together.

Next, briefly describe each new category you created and present your reasoning for each category. Include the characteristics of the original eight elements in your descriptions and the reasoning behind your pairings

Category:
Point of view is …
Assumptions are…
Explanation…
Example:

Below is an example of what one category may look like. You are free to pair any elements together if you can define their relationship to one another. Focus on the reasoning behind each pairing. That is what is most important in this exercise!

Example Category:

Category 1: How do I see it?

Point of View: The place from where I see things

Assumption: Information that is taken for granted; Preconceived notions

Explanation: I paired point of view and assumptions together in the same category because assumptions form your point of view. You cannot form a point of view without having assumptions first.

Example: My assumption is that short people are not good at basketball. My younger cousin is 5’ 3’’ and is terrible at the sport. Therefore, my point of view is that no short people can play basketball professionally.

Your completed assignment should be written primarily in first person and should be 500-750 words in length. If you use sources in your writing, be sure to identify them. If you use any direct language from a source, be sure to place those words in quotation marks.

Here is mine: I really like the Mock Interview. It portrayed real life questions and answers as well as situations one can get in when interviewing. Having good interviewing skills takes practice, practice, practice. I thought the Interviewers/Interviewees did an excellent job. Being prepared for the Interview by research, rehearsal, and practice will allow one to have a great interview. no longer then half page.

Write a paper that addresses the following legal issues

Scenario/Facts

Your neighbor Dan has recently been arrested and charged with
manufacture and possession of methamphetamine in violation of your
state’s law. The charges are based on evidence that police officers
found in Dan’s garbage can, including glass bottles and jars, metal
cans, plastic tubing, empty Pseudoephedrine cardboard boxes, and
household use batteries with residue matching the chemical compounds of
methamphetamine. Dan placed the garbage can at the curb for weekly
garbage pickup. A police officer riding with the garbage truck driver
picked up Dan’s garbage; Dan’s garbage was kept separated from all other
garbage.

Based on the items found in Dan’s garbage can, police officers
prepared and obtained a search warrant to search Dan’s house where they
found additional evidence of illegal narcotics.

Dan’s attorney plans on filing a motion in court, asking the court to
suppress/exclude the evidence found in Dan’s garbage can on the basis
that the police officers violated Dan’s Fourth Amendment rights when
they took his garbage. Will Dan’s attorney be successful?

Write a paper that addresses the following legal issues. Be sure to support your discussion and comments with research:

  • Explain whether the wording of “persons, house, papers and effects” in the Fourth Amendment applies to Dan’s garbage.
  • Has there been a search or seizure within the meaning of the Fourth
    Amendment in this case? In other words, was there a search or seizure of
    Dan’s garbage that triggers Fourth Amendment issues?
  • Does Dan have a “reasonable expectation of privacy” in his garbage can sitting at the curb? Why or why not?
  • Discuss whether you feel that the judge properly issued the search
    warrant for Dan’s house. In other words, what is the standard of proof
    for police officers to obtain a warrant? Be sure to define probable
    cause.

E-marketing Objectives Analysis

/in /by

My company is Dell

objectives analysis based on its Web presence and online value proposition. Remember that a Web presence may include not only a Web site, but blogs or social media sites such as Pinterest, Twitter, or Facebook.

Describe and evaluate evidence of “sell, serve, speak, save, and sizzle” objectives that you find. For instance, a “sell” objective may be to achieve a given number of direct sales on a Web site. What evidence can you find that will lead to a direct sale on the site? What can be improved on the site to achieve more sales? Remember that an objective can be supported through a call to action that makes up the first step toward a sale. An example cited in the textbook is the free DVD call to action on the Ultralase Web site (linked in Resources). (Chaffey & Smith, 2017, p. 25).

Prepare presentations slides

/in /by

Remember: Review the scoring rubric at the end of this assignment overview to make sure you know what is expected. The rubric can also be found in the syllabus

Each student will create a 5-10 minute presentation that conveys the essence of their “self” through art. At least 5 works should be chosen. You will need to

  • present the art (via narrated PowerPoint, narrated Prezi, or video), MAKE SURE IT IS FULLY NARRATED AND ON AUTO PLAY so the viewer doesn’t have to click on every slide. One of the easiest ways to do this is to create your PowerPoint with the embedded narration and all transitions and then export it as a video.
  • tell us about the art (artist, when it was created, define the type of art, gives us some context about how it was created)
  • explain how/why it represents you
  • identify a social angle for each work AND do a thorough contextual analysis
    • race and ethnicity
    • gender and sexuality
    • class and highbrow/lowbrow
    • colonialism, postcolonialism, place and regionalism
    • nature (environment, ecology) and culture
    • memory, history, generational identity
    • food culture
    • body and mind

You can use ANY type of art covered in our class, including the performing arts (play, dance, music) that are in Module 3. The WHY it represents you is the most important part of the project.

pls prepare the slides and what should be said in each slide

Example is attached below
