describe the specific role played by American troops in the Second Battle of the Marne, and in the months that followed between the battle and the German surrender in November 1918.

READ: After a bitter debate over how best to use American troops in World War I, it was determined that they would serve under General John J. Pershing, but accept the final strategic authority from the Allied Supreme Commander, Marshall Ferdinand Foch of France. Initially, American troops were used piecemeal to plug up holes and to drive Germans back, when possible. By 1918, American troops were fully engaged. They secured their first victory in May, at Cantigny, just north of Paris. They suffered terrible losses in June at Belleau Wood, but still claimed victory.

The real turning point came at the second Battle of the Marne, in July, where the combined efforts of the French, British, Italians, and Americans counteracted the German offensive and drove the Germans eastward. Notably, Americans soldiers, fresh to the war effort and not weighed down by years of fighting, provided a decisive edge. In the fall of 1918, Pershing lost over 100,000 men as he and the other Allied leaders continued to push the Germans back. By October 1918, Americans were behind German lines cutting supply lines, and in November 1918, Germany surrendered.

write a short essay describing how this idea of constraints impact evolution and the way in which researchers should study evolution.

Read the article by Gould and Lewontin (1979). This article presents a critique of the way evolutionary biology was evaluating selection and adaptation. This article spawned a major turning point for the field. It provides the notion that some traits arise simply as a structural byproduct of selection on other traits. This means that observed or inferred functional differences cannot always be equated to adaptive changes.

After reading this article, write a short essay describing how this idea of constraints impact evolution and the way in which researchers should study evolution. What information would Gould and Lewontin need to justify calling a trait an adaptation? What are the main critiques of the Adaptationist Programme? How important do you think the evolutionary history of the species is when considering if a trait is an adaptation? How important do you think constraints are to the process of evolution? Explain your reasoning for these opinions. Be sure to relate back to the readings, lectures, and/or videos that you watched in Modules 2 and 3.

Identify the global societal problem within the introductory paragraph.

Social Media Censorship (MY TOPIC)
Reflect: Based on the topic that you have chosen, you will need to use critical thinking skills to thoroughly understand how this topic can be a global societal problem and determine some logical solutions to the problem.

Write: This Final Paper, an argumentative essay, will present research relating the critical thinker to the modern, globalized world. In this assignment, you need to address the items below in separate sections with new headings for each. In your paper,

Identify the global societal problem within the introductory paragraph.
Describe background information on how that problem developed or came into existence.
Show why this is a societal problem.
Provide perspectives from multiple disciplines or populations so that you fully represent what different parts of society have to say about this issue.
Construct an argument supporting your proposed solutions, considering multiple disciplines or populations so that your solution shows that multiple parts of society will benefit from this solution.
Provide evidence from multiple scholarly sources as evidence that your proposed solution is viable.
Interpret statistical data from at least three, peer-reviewed scholarly sources within your argument.
Discuss the validity, reliability, and any biases.
Identify the strengths and weaknesses of these sources, pointing out limitations of current research and attempting to indicate areas for future research. (You may even use visual representations such as graphs or charts to explain statistics from sources.)
Evaluate the ethical outcomes that result from your solution.
Provide at least one positive ethical outcome as well as at least one negative ethical outcome that could result from your solution.
Explain at least two ethical issues related to each of those outcomes. (It is important to consider all of society.)
Develop a conclusion for the last paragraphs of the essay, starting with rephrasing your thesis statement and then presenting the major points of the topic and how they support your argument

Should crimes against women and/or children be considered more serious than crimes against men?

Some people use others to commit their crimes, all the while pretending to be law-abiding citizens or untouchable by law enforcement. We see them at all levels of societies: political leaders like Adolph Hitler, who order ethnic cleansing, and those like Charles Manson, who use others to perform nefarious deeds for them. Should these persons be held to a different standard than those who willingly carried out the crimes? Should crimes against women and/or children be considered more serious than crimes against men? The last crime to be added to the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) by the Department of Justice was arson. Are there other crimes that you would add to the UCR? Why?

In this Discussion, you are asked to examine criminal behavior in terms of its depravity. Which crimes appear to be the most serious? Is shooting someone less depraved than stabbing and beating a person to death? Why? Do you believe that punishments should fit the crimes committed? Consider the focus of the Depravity Standard and be prepared to discuss your thoughts on the seriousness of crimes.

To prepare

Navigate to the website for the depravity scale listed in the Learning Resources.
Examine the information given on the “About the Research” page concerning the Depravity Standard.
Read through the Learning Resource about classifying crimes by severity.
Participate in the study by logging in (it is a free site).
Complete the survey regarding the seriousness of different crimes.
