PERSUASIVE ESSAY TOPIC: VACCINATIONS IN CHILDREN ARE A NECESSITY FOR THE WELL-BEING OF SOCIETY

Part One: Topic Search

For the first part of this assignment, consider the following three questions:

  1. What issue or problem would you like to write about?
  2. Choose a side. What is your view on the issue? What is the opposing view?
  3. What specific change might fix this issue?

Then, freewrite for 10-15 minutes about the topic you have chosen. Share all of the reasons you can think of for why your problem needs to be fixed. Do not worry about grammar, spelling, or format. Do not edit. Write what comes to mind. Do not research yet. If you are stumped and cannot write what you know for 10-15 minutes, go back to #1 and start with a new topic.

Part Two: The Outline

Draft an informal outline for your upcoming persuasive paper. Do not include quotations or paraphrased material. Your outline should be built from your current knowledge of the topic. You can refine this later when you conduct your research.

Attached is a list of 9 microcultures that most societies would recognize. Read through the different variations that are included in each of the microcultures. Be sure to note which ones are considered the dominant position (according to American society) & which ones are inherent/cannot be changed.

Once you are familiar with the basics of the microcultures, consider the following prompts/questions. Each one asks you to think about your own personal identity, possibly in ways you haven’t considered before. While this might seem easy, it can be fairly difficult because it asks you to consider elements of your identity that you may have been unaware of or hadn’t even considered as a factor in your decisions.

For each question/prompt, decide which of the microcultures best answers it for you. This means the answers will likely be different for everyone. For example, the identity I am most aware of at home is being female, because that directs a lot of my interactions. But the identity I am most aware of at work/school is my race because I’m a Caucasian woman in a position discussing racial minorities & diversity issues, so I have to pay attention to how I speak.

We are never just one thing – we are constantly a barrage of identities & values & belief systems. Your Cultural Autobiography is meant to help you understand who you are so you can be in a better position to help others by understanding where they’re coming from.

Prompts:

  • This is the identity I am most aware of at home.
  • This is the identity I am most aware of at work/school.
  • This is the identity I know the most about.
  • This is the identity I know the least about.
  • This is the identity I tend to keep hidden.
  • This is the identity I most like to share with others.
  • This is the identity I think about most often.
  • This is the identity I think about the least.
  • When I think of my friends, this is the identity that we have most in common.
  • When I think of my friends, this is the identity that we have the least in common.
  • This is the identity I am most unsure of how to talk about.
  • This is the identity that I think most people judge me by.
  • This is the identity that brings me the most joy.
  • This is the identity that brings me the most struggle, pain, challenge and/or concern.
  • This is the identity I believe is the most important to me right now, in this room/at this moment.

When you’re finished, write a brief paragraph (150-250 words) in which you respond to this exercise – was it harder than expected? How did it make you feel to consider yourself like this? What did you learn?

I need someone to check my writing and answers. Its really short.

he Epic of Son Jara clearly emphasizes the heritage of the main protagonist – Son Jara. As we discussed in class, he has strong lineage in both the Islamic world and his mother’s African roots. In order to better understand cultural attitudes during this time frame, choose ONE of the following topics to create a brief discussion post. Does the topic have ties in both the Islamic world and African culture, or is it predominately found in just one culture? Use at least two examples from the book to back up your theory. Remember to include line numbers and page numbers. Comparisons to the 1001 Nights is also acceptable as well as other cultures and literatures.

1. Griot | Importance of oral tradition

2. Infanticide

3. Monolith of the hero

4. Animal Sacrifice and the idea of destiny

5. Polygamous customs

6. Deformity

7. Slavery

8. Patriarchy | genealogy and ancestry

I did mines on Animal sacrifice and the idea of destiny

This is what I wrote. Please do not do no APA or MLA format.

Animal Sacrifice is a religiously devoted practice that is orchestrated in the intentional killing of an animal to serve as a debt to one’s favoring God in order to gain something out of it.Perhaps, some of the gaining’s could be- forgiveness, a reward, relieve from curses, mitigating life tribulations, discovering one’s destiny, becoming powerful, and along with many more.

This particular issue has been going on since the beginning of human civilizations, biblical times, medieval times, and other essential times as well. An example, in the biblical times this concept was pursued in pertaining to “earn forgiveness” from God. In Leviticus- 4:35,“He sacrifices a lamb for blood, to serve as a debt for his sins, in order to gain God’s forgiveness and mercy.’’ This was common in the old testament in the bible because, Hebrews 9:22- states,” Under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.” So, you should be able to understand the notion of the essential of “animal sacrifices” in biblical time was justly a form of offering to save oneself from God’s curses on their wickedness.

In the Islamic and African culture– anciently and modernly; animal killing is commonplace. Both cultures’ commit this kind of sacrifice for the same and different reasons, but essentially to serve their God in some form of way. Again, the matter in this subject is just to understand that this is unsurprisingly new and culture ordinary in such.

On the contrary, annihilating animals could be perceived as a good thing. In the story Beowulf, he has to kill monstrous animals to save his people from being obliterated. Therefore, this sacrifice helps Beowulf raised in status in becoming king and received praised for his wondrous heroism.

In the epic story Son-Jara –on page 544, line 1190-1195, ‘’ They slaughtered both the rams, and cast them down a well, so the deed would not be known.’’ This concept of “Destiny” comes to play in this context as a representation of a unforeseen prophecy that was preach a lot in the story, of what should take place in the future–(for that his ram was undefeated), therefore a signification and symbol that he must be the one to rule the Manden people not his brother.

EDG2311 Backward Design-Activity #1

/in /by

The Backward Design Process
is vital as it gives you an opportunity to view an existing lesson
being implemented by a Master Teacher in alignment with your lesson plan
topic, the opportunity to then deconstruct that lesson from whole to
part by documenting “observed” behaviors of both teacher and students,
to also document observed interventions and strategies and finally to
suggest at least one additional instructional event (activity) to move
the lesson’s quality from “good to great”. Very important frontloading
activity, particularly for those that are beginners in the Lesson
Development, Design and Implementation Processes.

*Backward Design-Activity
#1:-provides the Educational Practitioner with the opportunity to
“deconstruct” a lesson presented from a Master Teacher from whole to
part by following the following steps;

  • Download the Backwards Design template provided below to your desktop.
    • Choose a fully implemented lesson of interest via You-Tube.
    • Observe and analyze the lesson closely and document observations, interventions and strategies observed into the template provided.
    • Documents activities, interventions and strategies onto the template that you would add to enhance the quality of the lesson.

    • *A “completed” exemplar has also been attached!!!!

    Can anyone do a balance score card and a brief strategic objectives summary?

    /in /by

    I will tip very good if the work is superb and has additional references included.

    Business Strategic Plan.docx      swott2.doc    


    here is a copy of an example of a score card that you can use to input the information Metroplusscorecard.xls

    Enclosed is the swott Table and swott analysis paper to help you complete the work… I also need references as well.  Please make sure you provide new references.

    Develop at least three strategic objectives for each of the four balanced scorecard areas identified (Financial, Customer, Process, Learning and Growth). 

    Base your solutions on a ranking of alternative solutions that includes an identification of potential risks and mitigation plans, and a stakeholder analysis that includes mitigation and contingency strategies. You should also incorporate the ethical implications of your solutions into your selection.

    • For each strategic objective, develop a metric and target using a balanced scorecard format. (For example, a strategic objective in the shareholder or Financial Perspective is to increase market share. A metric to actually measure this strategic objective of market share increase is, “The percentage of increase in market share.” The target is the specific number to be achieved in a particular time period. The target for the metric of “Increase market share” could be “Increase market share by 2% for each of the next 3 years” of an increase of 2% per year for 3 years.)

    Write a 700 word strategic objectives summary.  Include your balanced scorecard and its impact on all stakeholders, and the communication plan.
