FINAL PAPER: World View Chart Writing Assignment

Due Week 10 and worth 235 points

This assignment uses the information you have gathered for your weekly World View Chart Assignments.

Choose ONE (1) category (origin of all things, nature of god, view of human nature, view of good and evil, etc.) from the chart to focus on for this assignment. Consider how the selected category relates to all of the religions covered and to your own social or work experiences.

Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:

  1. Select ONE (1) category from the completed World View Chart. Provide a rationale for choosing this category. What is compelling about this category? Why is it important in the study of religion?
  2. Describe the selected content and explain the significance of the selected category across all of the religions studied. Show in what ways the category is significant for each religion.
  3. Give an example of how you have noticed this category in your life, town or country. What impact does this category have in the everyday lives of people who practice religion in your area? (You do not have to give examples of all the religions in your area, just one you have noticed besides any you practice). For example, in Cincinnati, Ohio we have Hindu, Greek Orthodox, Catholic festivals in the summer. So if my category were “Festivals and Celebrations” I could use those events as my example.
  4. Use at least three (3) quality resources as references for the assignment and document your sources using APA Style for in-text citations and references. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.
  5. Write clearly and coherently using correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, and mechanics.

Your assignment must:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Analyze what is meant by religion.
  • Analyze the similarities and differences in the primary beliefs held by major religious traditions and the cultures in which these religions evolved.
  • Describe the varieties of religious experience and practice in a wide range of cultures.
  • Recognize how daily life within various religions and current affairs are influenced by religion.
  • Develop written pieces that demonstrate an analysis of a topic relevant to the course.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in religion.
  • Write clearly and concisely about world religions using proper writing mechanics.

Race, Ethnicity, Class, and Gender in Current Events SOCPFP

/in /by

This option provides you with an opportunity to integrate race, ethnicity, socioeconomic class, and gender categories in the context of a major current event.

Choose a current event that is making national or international headlines; your instructor can help you decide. It might be a story about an election, a natural disaster, the global economy, a highly publicized criminal trial, or an event in the entertainment industry.

Then, analyze how race, ethnicity, socioeconomic class, and gender intersect and impact the event itself, the coverage of the event, and the event’s results. For example, if you decide to look at mass shootings in the United States, you will discuss who the shooters are (race, ethnicity, class, gender) and how the media portrays them (race, ethnicity, class, gender) as well as the victims (race, ethnicity, class, gender), etc. How old are the perpetrators and the victims? How quickly was the media to cover the story? Who are the reporters (race, gender)?

This is an analytical research paper where you will be following the case/event and using scholarly resources to guide your critical thinking throughout your report. That is, support statements with evidence.

  1. Include an introduction.
  2. Your paper must be at 8-10 pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages, which you must include.
  3. The paper should synthesize current, relevant research on your topic from at least 5 scholarly sources.
  4. References in APA format.

Designing for Autism Spectrum Disorder

/in /by

Effective research is critical to the success of any design project. First person research will provide the student with a realistic expectation of what can be designed. Not-for-profit local or regional Vocational Rehabilitation service providers work as conduits to help assist young adults transition from the educational setting to the work setting. Finding and interviewing local providers ( see http://www.ilru.org/projects/cil-net/cil-center-an… for this list) will inform the design and is an integral part of understanding the needs of a person with cognitive disabilities as well as provide information as to typical training configurations.

Internet searches and continuing on to secondary sources such as texts, case studies, investigations of the design programs, and studies of existing facilities are important. Included below are a number of books, links and pdfs which may help inform the students of the needs of the person with autism, but the student should also seek out research on their own and use this information in their citations.

Literature Essay Four

/in /by

Essay Four

Purpose and Instructions

This essay will give you the chance to explore in-depth a writer or topic of interest to you. Your essay should be a minimum of 5 double-spaced pages and must present an argument—some interesting, relevant, debatable, and original claim about the work of the writer or topic you choose. Take care that you don’t produce a report or mere regurgitation of facts found in research. You want to analyze and interpret your material, then present the results of your analysis as a developed and supported argument.

No matter what your focus may be, you’ll need to do a little research. What have other writers said about the same subject and issues? Do you agree or disagree with those sources? Through what critical lenses has your topic been explored? Are there any issues or approaches which you believe have been neglected? What are some recent debates concerning your topic? How does early criticism on the topic differ from very recent criticism?

Author Approach

Your critical essay may be about work by any writer or topic listed below. It’s a good idea to pick your writer and focus early. Also, be aware that a good many classic works are online these days, so you can save yourself time and money if you don’t mind reading on a screen!

Any novel, play, essays or poems by authors in our anthology (here are a few popular ones past students have chosen):

  • Anne Bradstreet
  • Jonathan Edwards
  • Washington Irving
  • James Fenimore Cooper
  • Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • Nathaniel Hawthorne
  • Edgar Allen Poe
  • Harriet Beecher Stowe
  • Henry David Thoreau
  • Walt Whitman
  • Emily Dickinson
  • Frederick Douglass

Note: Yes, you may certainly propose your own author, though you’ll need to discuss your choice with me and present an argument as to why the writer is worth examining.

Topic Approach (Keep in mind these areas are not covered in the class)

Rather than focusing on a particular writer, you may wish to tackle a particular topic in British literary studies. SEE BELOW LIST OF IDEAS.

  1. Critical reception of a particular writer over time.
  2. The influence of a particular writer on other writers, old and new. Ways in which a writer has influenced contemporary culture.
  3. Two poems or prose works: comparison and contrast.
  4. American understandings of either personal identity, gender, race, or nation—and representations of that understanding in literature.

Audience

Imagine that your essay will appear in a casebook on a particular writer, genre, and/or topic inAmerican literature. Your reader is any undergraduate college student and instructor interested in learning more about your chosen subject. This reader wants new ways of interpreting the subject, but is critical of any argument. That is, this reader is a tough sell and will question your claims, expecting ample supporting evidence of several kinds.

Suggested Format:

  • Introduction: One paragraph. Peak your reader’s interest and focus your argument. You do not need to include a plot summary; assume your reader is familiar with the text. Introduce the aspect of the historical, literary, or cultural context that your analysis will illuminate.
    • Thesis: Place your thesis as the last sentence in the first paragraph. The thesis should be purely analytical rather than descriptive. For example, this is a strong thesis: “Jane Doe’s short story ‘Family’ responds to what many conservatives in the 1990’s described as the ‘Crisis of the Family’.”
    • Interest! Make sure your reader understands what makes this argument worthwhile. What will the reader gain from reading your argument?
  • Body: Multiple paragraphs. The paper’s support. Start each paragraph with a clear topic sentence that connects the evidence with a portion of the thesis.
  • Conclusion: Can be brief- one paragraph. Wrap up your argument.

Evaluation Criteria

•Your essay must be a minimum of 5 typed and double-spaced pages with a 6th page as the Works Cited page.

•At least 4 outside sources (other then the primary source or reading selection) are to be incorporated at least once into the essay and formatted on a Works Cited page. You may choose the source types as long as they are credible.

•If a website is used as a source, it must be from a .edu, .gov or .org website. WIKIPEDIA may not be used.

•It should include a helpful and engaging title.

•It must have a clear, debatable central point (thesis), supported and developed with plenty of detail, analysis, and research, as needed.

•Your essay should show awareness of its audience’s expectations and needs.

•Your essay should be focused, unified, and well-organized, with appropriate paragraphing and transitions. It must be written in 3rd person.

•Your essay should show virtually no spelling or grammatical errors, vagueness, or awkward sentence constructions.

•All sources should be documented and the manuscript formatted according to MLA guidelines.

ATTATCHED : Annotated bibliography, Not mandatory, but I would like to incorporate one or two of these sources into the essay.

Chosen Topic : Edgar Allen Poe

Directions: Answer the following questions on a separate document. Explain how you reached the answer or show your work if a mathematical calculation is needed, or both. Submit your assignment using the assignment link above.

In your own words, complete the Mini-Case on Page 562 of your textbook.

Suppose you decide (as did Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg) to start a company. Your product is a software platform that integrates a wide range of media devices, including laptop computers, desktop computers, digital video recorders, and cell phones. Your initial market is the student body at your university. Once you have established your company and set up procedures for operating it, you plan to expand to other colleges in the area and eventually to go nationwide. At some point, hopefully sooner rather than later, you plan to go public with an IPO and then to buy a yacht and take off for the South Pacific to indulge in your passion for underwater photography. With these issues in mind, you need to answer for yourself, and potential investors, the following questions.

  1. What is an agency relationship? When you first begin operations, assuming you are the only employee and only your money is invested in the business, would any agency conflicts exist? Explain your answer
  2. If you expanded and hired additional people to help you, might that give rise to agency problems?
  3. Suppose you need additional capital to expand and you sell some stock to outside investors. If you maintain enough stock to control the company, what type of agency conflict might occur?
  4. Suppose your company raises funds from outside lenders. What type of agency costs might occur? How might lenders mitigate the agency costs?
  5. Suppose your company is very successful and you cash out most of your stock and turn the company over to an elected board of directors. Neither you nor any other stockholders own a controlling interest (this is the situation at most public companies). List six potential managerial behaviors that can harm a firm’s value.
  6. What is corporate governance? List five corporate governance provisions that are internal to a firm and are under its control.
  7. What characteristics of the board of directors usually lead to effective corporate governance?
  8. List three provisions in the corporate charter that affect takeovers.
  9. Briefly describe the use of stock options in a compensation plan. What are some potential problems with stock options as a form of compensation?
  10. What is block ownership? How does it affect corporate governance?
  11. Briefly explain how regulatory agencies and legal systems affect corporate governance.
