What happened in the Boston area to generate so much rebellious feeling?

Question Description

Please respond to one of the following prompts and reply to the post of at least one other student. Each of your posts must be a minimum of one paragraph in length and follow the guidelines listed in the Discussion Forum rubric in the syllabus. Creative and original thinking are always appreciated, as is going outside of the required reading to find information pertaining to your posts. The intent of the discussion board prompt/post exercise is to stimulate critical thinking and intellectual discourse. Threads have already been established for each prompt. Your reply to another student’s post must also be at least one paragraph in length to receive full credit and should not just be “I agree, you make good points, ” or something similar. The reply should give reasons for agreeing (or disagreeing) with the student and should address the student by name so that I can see whose post you replied to when I am grading. Your goal should be to contribute to the other student’s original post, thus enhancing the discussion. These prompts require critical thinking.

Week 8 Journal on Writing Skills (BINGO)

Question Description

Learning how to learn is just as important as what one is learning. Learning to learn, or metacognition, is about becoming aware of one’s strengths and weaknesses as a learner. It is about acting on that awareness to change the way one does things. Once the you are aware, you gain control over future learning situations.

Reflection as a form of metacognition or “thinking about “thinking” enables you to evaluate your experience, learn from your mistakes, repeat your successes, revise, and plan. Therefore, you will be practicing this reflective thinking process by self-assessing your own grammar and writing skills – identifying your strengths, and more importantly, your weaknesses that you will need to focus on for improvement.

Post your self-assessment of reading issues that you will need to focus on for improvement based on your experiences with the Week 8 reading, the discussion activity, and your review of your graded Exam #2.

I HAVE ATTACHED ONE OF THE READINGS FROM THIS WEEKS LESSON

Special Education Class

Question Description

Show your creativity! Make a representation of a child with any of the challenges in physical development discussed in chapters 4 and 5. YOU CAN DO THIS ALONE OR WITH ANOTHER STUDENT FROM CLASS.

(1) Put the child in the center of your paper. You can use a photo, an image from the internet, or an image that you make on your own. Give the child a name.

(2) Somewhere on your representation, briefly explain the physical or health condition that the child has.

(3) Somewhere on representation, briefly explain/list/illustrate the educational implications that are important to consider.

(4) Use the other space on your paper to represent the WHOLE child. What CAN the child do just like any other child. These are educational “NON-issues”? How would we expect the child to be a class member just like any other child? We don’t want a child to be “defined” by his/her disability!


Please be creative and thoughtful in your representation. Once you have completed your representation, upload it HERE. You can easily take a photograph of your work and upload the photograph here.

Rebel cell add Mia be a product !!

Question Description

Assignment: Find an ad that attempts the “rebel sell” or otherwise sells some sort of distinction. Your thesis should tell me how that ad makes this sell: what appeals does it make? How does it make those appeals? How is it selling distinction? This is an image analysis paper, so you should break the ad down into parts and show the reader how the parts work together to make the ad’s argument. Sample Theses: 1. Xerox’s print ad in Maxim 5/06 issue 45 attempts the “rebel sell” by identifying with creative self-sufficiency. 2. The Pabst Blue print ad in the 78th issue of Stuff effectively makes a rebel sell because it is cynical and self-aware, signaling that it is hip to “rebel” irony. 3. This ad for the H2 in National Geographic’s September 2005 issue appeals to our desire for distinction from mass-culture because it confers the distinction of financial success, absolute “otherness” in comparison to everything else on the road, and the unique potential power to explore virgin wilderness.( MUST BE ABOUT PRODUCT NOT ADVOCACY ADD!

Complete 150 word Persuasion Discussion Post (TCC)

Question Description

DB- Personal Stories of Persuasion

3232 unread replies.3535 replies.

Persuasion is a method that’s employed all the time, in all kinds of situations in our lives. One of the goals of this course is not only to make you a better writer, but also a more persuasive person in general. Definitely a useful life skill!

To get us started thinking about this, and as a way of introducing ourselves to each other, I’d like to know about a recent time when YOU had your mind changed about something. This doesn’t have to be anything major–an incident when your friend talked you into going to McDonalds instead of Burger King for lunch is perfectly appropriate here, or when a loved one talked you out of wearing that shirt with those pants.

In 1 or 2 paragraphs, describe the situation. What was the point of contention? What did you want to do initially, and what were you talked into doing (or thinking/feeling) instead? Who persuaded you to change your mind, and how? Are you happy with the results?

Faith Forum

Question Description

This week, we’ve been reading about selection processes and placing people in jobs.

For millennia, humankind has made decisions about who gets elevated to high positions and who does not. Often, in our world, the most privileged, beautiful or wealthy get picked over those who do not stand out in these ways. But what does God have to say about all of this?

In 1 Samuel chapter 16, the prophet Samuel looked at a man called Eliab and concluded “Surely the LORD’s anointed stands here before the LORD.” But scripture records that “the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”

For this week’s post, let’s respond to this question: If we are in charge of hiring or promoting employees for our organization, how do we do so in a way that reflects God’s heart toward all of us as He evaluates our hearts?
