Critical Reflection PAPER (20 points) + QUESTION Response (20 points) This I Believe Essay Assignment from “Book-In-Common” Initiative Background on Book-in-Common Initiative: Book-in-Common (BinC) is a community-wide learning experience for entire campus. Coordinated by the Office of First Year Initiatives, BinC intentionally supports new students in their transition and acculturation to by engaging them in this unique academic experience, which is enhanced when all members of our community participate. Students, faculty, and staff read and explore a common text incorporated into courses across disciplines. To support and enhance classroom learning and discussion, BinC partners with campus and local community members to provide a year-long series of co-curricular activities revolving around the themes and issues raised throughout the text. Planned programs include an essay submission portal in partnership with the This I Believe organization, a fall keynote, out-of-class group discussions, community service projects, an essay contest, film screenings, and faculty lectures/panels. This I Believe is our Book-in-Common this academic year. Background and Feedback on this year’s book, This I Believe: This I Believe is a series of 500-word essays in which each author shares the core values and beliefs that guide his or her everyday life. Through our common reading and related discussions, we are exploring the deeply held values, beliefs and experiences which motivate ourselves and others, as well as considering what it looks like to consistently put those beliefs into action. First year and upper-class students have shared that reading This I Believe was “eye-opening” and “life-changing.” This kind of feedback reflects an appreciation for how much we can learn from such a short and simple statement of belief. And this book has led to many interesting and enlightening conversations among people who hold differing viewpoints, and it’s challenged each of us to consider our own most deeply help beliefs. The description from Amazon.com reads as follows: “Based on the NPR series of the same name, This I Believe features eighty Americans–from the famous to the unknown–completing the thought that the book’s title begins. Each piece compels readers to rethink not only how they have arrived at their own personal beliefs but also the extent to which they share them with others. Featuring many renowned contributors–including Isabel Allende, Colin Powell, Gloria Steinem, William F. Buckley Jr., Penn Jillette, Bill Gates, and John Updike–the collection also contains essays by a Brooklyn lawyer; a part-time hospital clerk in Rehoboth, Massachusetts; a woman who sells yellow pages advertising in Fort Worth, Texas; and a man who serves on Rhode Island’s parole board. The result is a stirring and provocative trip inside the minds and hearts of a diverse group of people whose beliefs–and the incredibly varied ways in which they choose to express them–reveal the American spirit at its best.” Check out more belief statements at the This I Believe website www.thisibelieve.org and other books in the series, including This I Believe: Kentucky www.thisibelieveky.org Personal Belief Statements YOUR ASSIGNMENT HERE IS … 1 – www.thisibelieve.org ! visit the This I Believe website and READ and/or LISTEN TO essays from at least 4 (four) different authors (these are short, don’t worry!) 2 – http://thisibelieve.org/feature/ ! visit the This I Believe website and READ and/ or LISTEN TO at least 4 (four) essays from their SPECIAL FEATURES section (again, these are short!) 3- read the This I Believe essay guidelines set forth by This I Believe www.thisibelieve.org/guidelines/ 4- adhering as best you can to those guidelines, write and submit a Personal Belief Statement here in Blackboard which examines a core value or belief you hold and how that has led you to or is demonstrated by your work. !you will want to DRAFT this and FINALIZE your writing in a WORD.docx document and SAVE it.

How did Alice Paul’s views of equal gender come to be in the US, and why did they take so long to be recognized?

 

Thesis Statement

Based on the research to date, I will try to support the following thesis: The reason that Alice Paul had such an issue getting the ERA to pass was because of the conservative views of the Republican Party. This statement could change, based on subsequent research.

 

Introduction

There is a ton of information floating around about the Equal Rights Amendment. You can find pictures of woman and men marching in the street caring signs. With a quick Google search you can find timelines of what passed where, and who apposed what. One thing that the masses don’t know too much about is Alice Paul. Alice Paul is the unsung hero of the Equal Rights movement, she had a long and hard climb to office, with powerful people apposing her. In this essay I plan to pinpoint the reason Paul had such an issue getting the ERA to pass was because of the conservative views of the Republican party.

 

Topic and Research Question

Topic: For my historical event analysis, I have chosen to focus on Alice Paul. Alice is obviously a very important historical figure that most people don’t know anything about.

Research Question: How did Alice Paul’s views of equal gender come to be in the US, and why did they take so long to be recognized?

Search Term and Sources

Search terms that I have used in my research so far include Alice Paul, Paul, Alice, equal gender, women’s rights movement and Paul,

One secondary source is “The Fifteenth Star: Alice Paul and the National Woman’s Party in Minnesota” by J.D. Zahniser, Published in Minnesota History Magazine, Minnesota Historical Society Press.

Another secondary source is “Alice Paul: Equality for Woman” by Christine Lunardini. New York: Routledge, 2012. This book is in Shapiro Library

 

 

Final Writing Plan

For my historical event analysis, I have chosen to focus on Alice Paul and the Equal Rights Amendment. Alice was the voice behind one of this nation’s biggest and most talked about movements and she is relatively unknown.

In studying Alice and her movement, I aim to answer several questions, specifically how did Alice Paul’s views of equal gender come to be accepted and why did they take so long to be instated? Also, I want to know What separate’s Paul from leaders of today? Given that she was arrested 7 times, forced fed in prison as punishment for her beliefs, and beaten by police during her peaceful movements and yet she never gave up.

Search terms that I have used in my research so far include Alice Paul, Paul, Alice, equal gender, women’s rights movement and Paul.

My analysis needs to consider how this movement came to be, as well as how society came to view it as it spread. One secondary source is “The Fifteenth Star: Alice Paul and the National Woman’s Party in Minnesota” by J.D. Zahniser, Published in Minnesota History Magazine, Minnesota Historical Society Press. This source will fill us in on how Alice Paul started her campaign with a Woman’s Suffrage Amendment in Minnesota.

Based on the research to date, I will try to support the following thesis: The reason that Alice Paul had such an issue getting the ERA to pass was because of the conservative views of the Republican Party. This statement could change, based on subsequent research.

I plan to write this historical analysis for an audience that is somewhat familiar with the Equal Rights Amendment, but who does not know specific details. This audience will need some background info and detailed information here and there.

In writing for this audience, I plan to focus my efforts on proving why the bill to so long to pass legislation, using examples. I want my audience to finish with a better understanding of the battle this was for woman, and how the fought was won.

In his Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, Jean-Jacques Rousseau takes issue with Hobbes’ portrayal of the state of nature and his conclusions about where absolute sovereignty must reside. Write an essay on Rousseau’s argument with Hobbes. In your essay you should discuss the different approaches each theorist takes when explaining the reasons for the existence of political authority.

 

Write an essay of approximately 7-9 double-spaced pages on one of the topics listed below. You are not to consult or refer to secondary sources. Rather, you are asked to develop your own reasoned argument in response to the question, proposition, or contention which the essay topics contain.

 

All direct quotes and paraphrases must be appropriately cited. The most convenient way of citing a passage in the text (or close paraphrase) in a political theory essay is to use the MLA citation style which consists of parenthetical in-text citations and a Texts Cited or Bibliography at the end of the paper. In-text citations would look like this: (Hobbes 2011, 650). The Texts Cited or Bibliography entry at the end of your essay should look like this: Hobbes 2011, Leviathan in Michael L. Morgan, ed. Classics of Moral and Political Theory. Indianapolis, Indiana: Hackett Publishing Co.

 

Clarity is a key to writing a successful essay in political theory. This means being clear about the problem you are addressing, clear about the argument you are proposing, and clear in the way you develop that argument. It is often said that good writing makes for good arguments. When composing your essay, you should pay particular attention to spelling, grammar, sentence structure, paragraph formatting, punctuation and all the other elements that contribute to a good writing style. Nothing diminishes or obscures a written argument more than having it expressed poorly or sloppily.

 

 

Essay Topics

 

  • Thomas Hobbes and John Locke both used the concepts of a state of nature and a social contract to argue for the kind of political arrangement they thought suitable to human nature and the conditions under which political rule is necessary. While their starting points are similar, they arrive at different conclusions about the type of political authority that should command the allegiance of ostensibly free and equal individuals. Write an essay comparing their different approaches to the question of legitimate political authority. In your essay you should discuss the reasons why they came to different conclusions about political authority and which argument you find more persuasive.

 

  • In his Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, Jean-Jacques Rousseau takes issue with Hobbes’ portrayal of the state of nature and his conclusions about where absolute sovereignty must reside. Write an essay on Rousseau’s argument with Hobbes. In your essay you should discuss the different approaches each theorist takes when explaining the reasons for the existence of political authority.

 

  • Locke and Rousseau share similar views on what establishes a right to property, but in all other respects they disagree on the role property plays in civil society and in the origins of a political state. Compare and contrast their views, paying attention to what it is that causes the two theorists to have such different evaluations of property.

 

  • The values of liberty (or freedom) and equality are often seen as the cornerstones of modern liberalism. Write an essay comparing and contrasting the way Hobbes (in the Leviathan), Locke (in the Second Treatise of Government), and Rousseau (in The Social Contract) view these values.

 

  • John Locke, in his Letter Concerning Toleration, appears to argue for a separation of church and state because they involve two different spheres of human activity. In his chapter in Civil Religion in The Social Contract, Jean-Jacques Rousseau suggests that religion does have a place in politics. Write an essay comparing these two views.

 

 

 

What are the possible side effects of that medication?

Improving Patient Compliance

Helping a patient to remember to take their medication is one aspect of compliance but a majority of compliance comes from educating the patient. The more a patient knows about what he/she is taking the more likely they will be diligent on taking their medications.

In this scenario you are the health care provider answering questions from your patient regarding a medication. Choose any ONE medication that treats ONE condition below and answer the questions that follow. Remember these are questions from your patient, be as thorough as possible but yet understandable to the patient.

Conditions: Bacterial infection, UTIs, peptic ulcers, hypertension, asthma; high cholesterol, or congestive heart failure.

The patient asks you:

  1. What is the name of the medication?
  2. Why do I need to take it?
  3. What are the possible side effects of that medication?
  4. How does it work on my condition?
  5. What should I do if I miss a dose?

How does the Pupil Premium funding affect educational outcomes in Key Stage 1 in the UK?

Topic:

How does the Pupil Premium funding affect educational outcomes in Key Stage 1 in the UK?

Description
My question for my dissertation was “How does the Pupil Premium funding affect educational outcomes in Key Stage 1 in the UK?” The literature review was split into three key themes. To support this literature review, I had asked for different sources such as journals, articles, government documents and any other readings you can find. To continue this, the next part of the dissertation is the methodology, which will be 500 words. As my dissertation is literature based, the methodology will summarise how the resources have been researched. I will link a literature-based project guide that explains how the methodology should be written and also some other information that can be added in to the methodology. I have also put an example of a methodology for a literature based dissertation.
