Two of the Learning Goals for this Course are:

1. Articulate the relevance of Earth Science to individuals and to society.

2. Evaluate Earth Science related topics presented in the media, on the basis of the evidence presented and your knowledge of physical processes.

You will further examine the theme of these Learning Goals here in ‘Assignment 2’.

Specifically, this REQUIRED activity has 2 parts. It is worth a total of 9% of your Course Grade (6% for Part 1, 3% for Part 2). For FULL MARKS, make posts that are thoughtful and which contribute to your own and your colleagues learning in this course. Details about grading are in the rubric below.

During this exercise you will (1) analyze a media article that is relevant to the course and articulate your findings in a short, well written essay post which finishes by asking 2 well-founded questions, (2) reply to one of the questions posed by your colleagues about their initial post PLUS post a minimum of TWO discussion contributions about your own OR a colleague’s topic.

PART 1. The first part of this assignment is due no later than March 14 (11pm).

To do:

• Upload your Media Article. See instructions below.
• Write your Post 1.
• Upload your Post 1 as well as your original Media Article into your Small Group Discussion Board. See instructions below.

Post 1 Specific Instructions

Post 1 – Essay Content

Your essay should include two main components.

Firstly you should use what you know about physical processes (from the course) to analyze the scientific evidence given in the article.

Secondly you can do one of two things:

1. Explain how the article’s findings impact either individuals or society as a whole. In other words, add new insights into how the science in the article might change the way either individuals, or society in general, operates.

or

2. Assess the validity of the assertions and conclusions given in the article. In other words analyze the accuracies or inaccuracies in the discussion or conclusions presented.

In addition to the two main components outlined above, your essay should have a short introductory sentence or two and finish with a concluding sentence or two.

Make sure that your essay does not just summarize the original article. Also, we are NOT looking for a personal opinion piece but rather a fact driven analysis of your media piece. Take some time to work on your submission so that it flows logically from one idea to another.

Essay Specifics

Your essay should not be less than 400 words and should not exceed 500 words. The news article that is the subject of our post must be cited. [Also, please attach a copy of your research article to your essay post or include a direct link or address to your article so that other students (and the instructor and TA) can refer to it if they would like to.] Beyond that, it is not necessary to go outside the course readings and materials to complete your essay. If you do decide to research further work beyond the course, you should include citations in your essay text where required. Include the specifics of the original article and any relevant references at the bottom of your essay. (See the FAQs for more specifics on eligible references.)

Post 1 – Required Questions to Follow Essay

At the end of your essay you should post two substantive scientific questions that were raised in your mind from the article you chose. Each question and justification should be roughly 100 words (this is in addition to the 400 – 500 words for your essay itself).

• Include some explanation or justification for why you are asking this question. Do not simply pose the question and leave it at that. You must explain to your colleague what it is about your piece AND your own knowledge that caused you to wonder about the issue you identify as a question.
• Here are some examples of the way a question might arise in your mind:
• 1. The original article said xyz but I heard/read that abc (with a reference).  I wonder if…, or it doesn’t make sense to me that …”, or similar …
  2. “What the original article said about xyz seems unexpected because … xyz (use logic, &/or a reference). I wonder where / how / why … .” etc.
  3. “The original article is interesting … and isn’t it also true that … (with a reference) …?” etc.

You are in charge of Emergency Management for all regional Homeland Security efforts.  Information has just been received from the FBI regarding an “imminent terrorist attack on a regional power plant.” It is your responsibility to devise a plan to address this threat.  The Governor of your respective city has instructed you to prepare a presentation on how you plan to prepare for this situation.

 

You are instructed to prepare a presentation in Microsoft Power Point format regarding your plan to address this threat.  You will choose a commercial shopping facility in or near your hometown and address this threat by putting a plan together.  The plan will be a general plan for how first responders will attempt to prevent, deter, respond to and recover from an incident at your selected location.  Each presentation will contain information from every module…relevant to your specific location.  Photographs, Maps, Charts all can be utilized in the presentation.  Ensure the presentation has an Introduction, a Discussion (Plan), and a conclusion (follow up).  The target audience for your presentation will be the Governor and his advisors.

For this assignment you will examine and compare the 2012 Republican and Democratic Party platforms. Platforms are ratified by each of the parties at their respective nominating conventions every four years. Platforms are significant for at least two reasons.

• First, the platform is intended to be a statement of the party’s beliefs. By examining the platforms of the parties one can gain an understanding of what each of the parties stand for.
• Second, research has shown that winning presidential candidates make an effort to convert the policy ideas found in their party’s platform into law. In most cases they are successful in doing so.

Your task is first to examine one domestic policy issue and one foreign policy issue of your choice and second to compare the policy positions of the Republican and Democratic parties as stated in their platforms.

The platforms can be found at the websites for the respective parties:

• Democratic Party  https://www.demconvention.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Democratic-Party-Platform-7.21.16-no-lines.pdf

• Republican Party https://www.gop.com/platform/

Write a 3 – 4 page essay that follows this general format:

1. An introduction to the meaning and role of a party platform

• Who writes it?
• When? When will the next platform be released?
• Is the President bound by it?

2. A discussion of your chosen domestic issue.  Be sure to be detailed and clear about the stance of each party. This is a COMPARE and CONTRAST paper, so you should select one party and discuss their position on the issue and then start a new paragraph and discuss the other party’s position on the same issue.  How do they compare?
3. A discussion of your chosen foreign policy issue.  Again, in depth and clearly delineated by party.
4. A paragraph for each the domestic and foreign policy issue analyzing the differences and similarities between the two parties on the chosen issues.
5. A conclusion stating any surprises or revelations found in the process as well as a statement of which party is closer to your own beliefs on these two issues.

In general – IMMIGRATION should NOT be selected as a foreign policy issue.  Foreign policy = dealing with foreign governments. How we manage our borders is a DOMESTIC issue unless it involves agreements with foreign powers

1. Write a one paragraph abstract introducing your policy topic
2. Present 3 graphics illustrating 3 different data messages relevant to your policy topic
3. The 3 data messages must include 2 graphs and 1 map, appropriately titled
4. Each graph and map must be original, created by you
5. For each graph or map, answer the following questions:
a. What does the graphic tell you? Interpret the full meaning of the graph or map. Be thorough and specific. Drill down to all aspects of the graphic.
b. Why are these data significant?
c. What is the health-related context surrounding this issue?
d. Based on the data you have described, what are your public policy recommendations?
e. References
6. Describe what you learned from completing this assignment.

Please chose carbon monoxide for the policy topic. Please try to use recent date and use recent references no later then 2010. But please try to use the recent data and references as possible.only use internet sources as well so I can see attach links from where you got the data and information from. The graph and map has to be original. U can use us map maker and type in graph maker on google
