TIPS for ESSAY – Guidelines

Helpful suggestions for composing your writing:

Write your essay in the present tense and in third person. Omit use ofpersonal pronouns (ex. I, we, you, us, etc.) Make clear, concisestatements of fact, not opinion.
Include: Introduction, body of text, conclusion

Describe any art works using Visual Analysis – WHAT is the art work about? Subject? Use specific detail.

REMINDER: the good Qs to remember: WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, and HOW? Be Specific…!

Introduction: Make engaging opening statements – Bring the reader into your writing.

Elements evident in art work: Line, shape, color, texture/pattern, space, time/motion,
Balance, scale, mass/volume, perspective, structure, etc.
Materials, medium, techniques, process, methods
(some elements are not applicable)
(painting, sculpture, photography, drawing)

Discuss: Context in which the art work was created? What do you knowabout the art and the art works the artist created? What may have beenthe intention of the artist in creating the works?
The reader may need background info about the artist to understand the subject.

** Some Qs that are merely guidelines and may not always apply:

o Does the art work communicate an action, narrative, or story?
o Does the art work explore movement… capture objects in motion?
o What kind of abstract elements can observe in the art work?
o Is text used in the work? Explain
o Do key objects have symbolic value or provide a clue to meaning?
o What is the overall mood… (this can be your perspective, of course)
o What. Subject matter contributes to the mood?
o What events and surrounding environments influenced the art works? (Context)
o Is the work characteristic of a particular style, movement, pr time period?

Stick to your topic… no sideline tangents … ideas should flow andtransition to each supporting sentence and paragraph …. no grandiosevocabulary.

Conclude – affirm your opening with thoughtful, engaging statements without repeating the opening.

Outline for Week 2 Assigment ( Revision)

/0 Comments/in /by

Question Description

The Week 2 assignment is a formal outline for your academic argument, which requires understanding of weekly instructor guidance and College Writing Handbook chapters 1, 3, and section 2.1. In Week 1, you developed your topic and constructed a research question. In Week 1, you developed your topic and constructed a research question. This week, you’ve researched the topic and can begin to develop your argument. Create your argument based on the information you have gathered through research and tracked in your research notebook.

In this assignment, you will show that you are achieving important learning outcomes:

  1. Interpret information through close and critical reading.
  2. Demonstrate effective use of the writing process.
  3. Employ effective academic tone, style, mechanics, and citation method.
  4. Integrate relevant source material effectively and ethically.
  5. Support a position appropriate to the rhetorical situation.

You will submit a formal, alphanumeric, full-sentence outline formatted in proper APA style. The outline must organize your argument into an introduction, conclusion, and at least five body sections (approximately 550 words or more). The introduction section must include a working thesis statement, which is an arguable response to your research question. Each body section should contain a topic sentence and subordinate claims and evidence from at least five credible and scholarly sources. Paraphrases, summaries, and quotes must be cited accurately and used with integrity. This assignment requires a title page and a reference list.

Alonda, I appreciate that you submitted something, but this is not an outline. You have submitted an essay draft, and the point of this assignment was to engage with the outline form. You also didn’t find/use the required amount of scholarly sources, per the directions.

For the content, I’m not sure what your argument is, as you don’t have a clear thesis statement. You have a citation at the end of the intro paragraph, and I’m not sure why that is either. What is the argument? You need to avoid just describing a situation, and actually make an argument.

Please revise and resubmit this outline by end of day on 09/12. Email me when you have done so, in order for me to review/grade.

analyze a letter from martha gellhorn to harry hopkins during the new deal 2 pages

/0 Comments/in /by

Question Description

For your second essay assignment, you will be analyzing a letter from esteemed journalist, Martha Gellhorn, to the Secretary of Commerce during the New Deal, Harry Hopkins. Today, Gellhorn is considered one of the greatest journalists of the last century. At the advice of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, in 1934 Hopkins hired Gellhorn to serve as a field investigator for the Federal Emergency Relief Association (FERA). She wrote this letter to him after returning from North Carolina that November.

FIND IT HERE: GLO DOCUMENT. Martha Gellhorn to Harry Hopkins, 1934.pdf

Your essay should do the following:

  • Place the document within its larger historical context using the textbook and lecture notes as your guide
  • Identify the major points, purposes, and intended audiences of the document
  • Determine what specific themes and issues from the covered material are represented in the document and explain their connections
  • Use the document as primary evidence to make at least two historical conclusions about the New Deal
  • Have a clear and focused thesis which reflects the conclusions you intend to explain

Your essay must be a minimum of two complete double-spaced pages with 12-point, Times New Roman font. It should be written in a comprehensive format with an introduction, thesis statement, specific examples (this does not mean large quotes from the text), citations, and a conclusion. It should not include any outside sources other than lecture notes and textbook without prior approval.

NO OUTSIDE SOURCES, please.

Strategies and Guidelines:

  • The idea here is to engage with the primary source provided, and to keep it at the center of your analysis. Students sometimes want to write a grand narrative about the events and people involved. That is not a good strategy. You should show your reader specifically how the document connects to the larger history it is a part of.
  • This document is a primary source. Treat it the same way you would any contemporary source you come across. We do not take news stories, personal accounts, or political speeches at face value. This document needs the same kind of investigation, scrutiny, and evaluation.
  • The best essays are ones with a strong thesis statement that includes historical conclusions, and uses clear evidence and historical context from the document and covered material to prove them.

Question Description

How did you cope with these issues( experience any role encapsulation or stereotyping? any boundary heightening?)

Do you have any advice for others in similar situations?

Use the introduction part in the word document for example as interviewee in the hotel.

Here is helpful understanding about the groups.

Skewed and Tilted GroupsTilted groups are groups in which one sex (or any type of group – for example, a racial group) is presentin significantly greater numbers than the other. In skewed groups, the tilt toward one sex isoverwhelming. Hence groups in which men comprise 65 to 85% of the total are considered to be tilted,while those with 85 to almost 100% males are considered to be skewed.With more women entering junior- and middle management positions, the work groups at these levelsare becoming less skewed (and more tilted). However, at upper managerial levels, the groups are still highly skewed in favour of men. How does the composition of the group affect the males and femalesworking within it?People who are almost the representatives of a minority group, face special problems. Since women aremore often rarely represented in top positions at managerial levels, they face several problems. Being anonly or almost only member of a minority group makes them highly visible and more prone toperformance pressures. Most women in such situations feel they have to outperform the males in theirgroups to gain credibility.Dominant group members often resent the attention given to such a “sole representative” member andtend to emphasize the differences between them and the minority group member. This is done throughactivities that highlight their “togetherness” and difference from the minority group member, such as inthe example quoted at the beginning of this section. This is called boundary heightening.Minority group members who are in extremely skewed groups (i.e., where they are the only person ofthe minority group or one of very few members) are also subject to stereotyping. For example, womenmanagers are often expected to bring coffee and take minutes and, in general, to perform activities thatare more in line with the stereotypes of females. This is called role encapsulation.Women in such circumstances sometimes react to their minority status by attempting to become “one ofthe boys” to such an extent that they resent other women entering the group. This is called the queen beesyndrome.

Class Conversation 2–Oversexed & Undereducated?: Exploring the Politics of Sex in Society

/0 Comments/in /by

Question Description

Contemplate and share your perceptions regarding the following questions:

  • Is sex everywhere in our society? Please provide support and examples for your position from the chapter, personal experience/observations and other credible research you may include.
  • If you answered yes to the above statement, what could potentially be the impetus for this based on the chapter readings, your own views and observations?
  • How does this impact us as individuals, couples, and families?

This then ties in with the topic of sex education in America …

From your own experience and what we have learned in class from chapter 4, “Our Sexual Selves”:

  • How do you think we are doing as a country concerning educating ourselves and future generations about sex?
  • Thinking about how you learned about sex—what role did your parents play, your peers, your school, even media? Would you have wanted anything done differently and if so, what?
  • Finally, our text addresses the topic of sexual responsibility and based on the definition provided, what does that mean to you and how can our society promote and encourage sexual responsibility in how we teach and address sexuality?

Remember to explain and support your views with not only opinion but information from the chapter along with other credible sources you may choose to you.

Submit your discussion posts using the reply arrow below. Be sure to share complete thoughts, examples, and answer the questions above in a way that promotes further discussion with each other.

Please feel free to present in first person but still in essay/paragraph form. Do not just do question/answer, question/answer. Follow the expectations for class discussions as addressed in Module 0.

As always remember to:

  • REVIEW YOUR WORK BEFORE SUBMITTING because once you post, you cannot go back and edit (see Module 0 concerning this policy).
  • Integrate course material from chapter 4 into your post in addition to your personal views and/or experiences.
  • Post to at least four others in the discussion.
  • Be sure to always properly cite any sources used within your post and also provide a reference list at the end in APA format.
  • Keep in mind: Your original post to this prompt is worth up to 10 points and your 4 peer responses are worth up to 4 points (1 point each). This makes the total points for this discussion worth 14 points
