Write a journal assignmet

/in /by

Write a journal assignment responding to this week’s readings and themes from the perspective of questions of gender and power. Use your journal to reflect freely on the dynamics of power as they exist along the lines of class, gender, age, and race in Marguerite Duras’s novel The Lover and Eileen Chang’s short story “Sealed Off.” Quote examples from the text that struck you as particularly significant in terms of these themes.

Instruction
The journal entry must be one to two pages in length, double-spaced, and size 12 font. Please make sure that the journal entry is thorough, that the grammar and punctuation are correct, that the sentences are well-structured and complete, and that the transitions are smooth. Included as an attachment is an overview of the learning module that goes with this assignment. Hopefully it will provide an idea as to what we are studying and what the journal entry is supposed to reflect. Thank you.

American sculpture PPP

/in /by

Locate examples of contemporary American sculpture on the Internet that are not included in the text. You might include examples of each of the following: Art Deco, Social Realism, Modernism, Surrealism, direct carving, Abstract Expressionism, found objects, Pop Art, Minimalism, and Process Art.

Prepare a 5- to 7-minute Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation in which you address ONE of the following:

  • MOVEMENTS:  How do the different sculpture movements reflect the development of sculpture in the 20th century?  
  • MATERIALS:  What type of materials did artists use to create their sculptures?  Why did different artists/movements use different materials?
  • CULTURAL EXPRESSION:  How did the cultural values of the 20th century influence the styles of sculpture?

In each of the above choices, you will show us THREE images that illustrate your argument.  As you present this, help us look CLOSELY at the images to help us understand this.

Please note:  your presentation will be timed.  You cannot earn higher than a B+ on it if you go over or above the time given.  This means using a stopwatch would be a good idea.

    Guidelines to an effective peer review, Discussing Peer Review help

    /in /by

    Read the Guidelines for Effective Peer Review (see Resources area) and answer the following questions:

    • Why do you think peer review is important?
    • What are important questions to ask when reviewing a peer’s paper?
    • What do you think are important elements of peer review?
    • What concerns do you have regarding peer review?

    Guidelines for Effective Peer Review

    Guidelines for Effective Peer Review
    The following guidelines are from the Capella University Writing Program. You can find more
    writing advice at Capella University’s Online Writing Center.
    Peer review can be one of the most beneficial aspects of writing, as it gives you the
    opportunity to test out your writing on an audience before you officially submit your work.
    However, engaging in peer review is not an easy task. It requires reviewers to be careful and
    thoughtful readers, as well as rigorous but tactful responders. It also requires writers to be
    open to feedback and willing to take that feedback seriously. A well-conducted peer review is
    a benefit to both writers and readers. Writers are able to determine what and how to revise in
    order to improve their writing, and readers are able to apply their comments and criticisms to
    their own writing.
    The following guidelines help you maximize the peer review experience for writers and
    readers. Feel free to add your own guidelines as you develop your skills as both a writer and a
    responder.
    Guidelines for Writers
    • Be open to receiving constructive criticism. Remember, your peers’ comments reflect
    their perspective of what you have written. Their comments are not personally directed
    at you.
    • Look for patterns in the peer responses, because patterns indicate general issues you
    can focus on improving. For example, if your reviewers regularly comment on the
    absence of topic sentences, that should encourage you to focus on topic sentences as
    you are revising your work.
    • Do not begin revising your own writing until you have read through all the peer
    responses you have received. Look for commonalities among the comments and
    consider prioritizing the common issues. Do not simply implement one peer’s
    comments.
    • Before you begin revising, prioritize your work. Work on the global concerns first, such
    as transitions, flow, and confusing passages. Save the local concerns, such as
    grammar and spelling, for a later stage.
    • Remember, you have ultimate control over your writing. Make good rhetorical choices
    that you believe will lead to a better written text.
    Guidelines for Readers
    • Offer praise as well as criticism. Indicate what works well, because this shows the
    writer what habits he or she should continue.
    • Focus on global concerns before local ones. It is more important for you to help the
    writer produce a unified, coherent, and intelligent piece of writing than a grammatically
    correct one. Grammar has its place, but it should not be your first concern as a peer
    reviewer.
    • Offer comments that are constructively critical, not rude or mean-spirited. Whenever
    possible, comment on the writing, not the writer. For example: “This paragraph
    confuses me because…,” is more effective than a blanket statement such as “You are

    Template version 1.1

    Guidelines for Effective Peer Review
    not clear here.” Remember that explanations about what does and does not work
    helps the writer more than short, cryptic notes.
    • Use peer review as a tool to teach yourself. As you note what works well and not so
    well, you can learn how to improve your own writing.
