Annotated Bibliography

This bibliography should include FOUR research articles you will use for your paper. For each article, you need to provide

The citation in APA style
A brief (no more than 1 page) summary of each article. The summary should include:
The basic premise and research question of the study
The methodology
Results
Conclusions

Additionally

Summary Paper:

The paper should not simply be a summary of the articles. Rather, it should be geared at professionals who do not have in-depth knowledge of research, but know something about management and organizations. You could pretend you are the personnel director of a company and are presenting to a group of managers. Your summary paper should convey the information gained from the research literature in an organized way and should make an argument for why this topic is important for managers to pay attention to. Also I would like to see you make some recommendations for action.

APA Style: All submissions must be written in APA format.  Basically this means that the references must be written in APA style, all assignments written in 11 or 12 point font, double spaced, with 1-inch margins.

Christianity

Please read and answer all the questions in each essay topic carefully. Each essay response should be about 2 pages long.  Each essay is worth 50 points each.

I prefer that you speak in plain language as if you were explaining the subject matter to someone with no experience with the topic. It is permitted to only use our textbook as a source. You may use outside sources if you like, but your own reflections in your own words are preferred.

If you submit work that is not your own, you will receive a zero grade for the assignment and academic discipline may ensue.

education- Representation of autsim in childrens literature

August 6, 2020 Leave a comment Harvard Referencing, Psychology and Education

7,000 word dissertation that includes the introduction, literature review, methodology, 3 chapters and the conclusion.
It is a literature based dissertation based on autism and how autistic characters are represented in children’s books.
The main idea would be to talk about autism and its diagnosis process, linking this with how characters in children’s books show autistic traits. for example if looking at “my brother charlie” then it would mean to talk about how that characters autistic traits and cross referencing it with a different characters autistic traits from a different children’s book.
the three chapters would probably be based based on a certain theme and then discussing various book characters autistic traits similarities and differences.
example chapter themes could be Friendship?, emotions? Routines? Obsessions?

Geology4L final paper

Geology 4L: Final Paper
Goal: To understand the spheres that make up the Earth system and the processes through which they interact.
Using what you have learned this semester in Geology 4L, choose an event or process about which you are interested in learning more (e.g. Mount Saint Helen eruption, supervolcano eruptions, wildfires, increasing CO2 levels in the atmosphere, the formation of diamonds, Hurricane Maria, a large meteor impact). Make sure to pick a topic that that is large enough to affect at least four of Earths spheres that we discussed this semester (i.e. atmosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, cosmosphere).
Your paper should: 1) focus on how your chosen event or process affects each sphere and 2) include as many connections as possible to what you have learned in the Geology 4L labs. 3) Include information on how this event affects/is affected by human activity. Use the diagram below to help you think about the types of interactions that could occur.

I encourage you to think creatively and to incorporate the expertise of your major and what you have learned in other classes into your project if it fits into the scope of the project.

Story From a Different POV

August 6, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), English and Literature

Now it’s your turn to tell a story…but from a different point of view (POV).

Pick a character from a fable, fairy tale, myth, or folktale…other than the main character(s).  Retell the story from their perspective.  We saw how different The Three Little Pigs story was when we learned about how the wolf felt.  You also saw how committed Cinderella’s stepsisters really were in the Grimm’s version.  I wonder what motivated them to take such drastic measures….So pick a story and give it a new perspective.

Your story doesn’t have to be as long as the original, just enough to help the reader recognize the original but also see how different it can be when told from a different point of view.

When you are done, be sure to comment on at least one of your classmate’s stories.  Let them know if you like the new perspective more or not…and why.

Fractured Fairytale Discussion

August 6, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), English and Literature

first of all – what is a “fairy tale”?  A fairy tale is one type of story under the heading of “folk tales.”  There are many types of folktales: a tall tale, a cumulative tale, or an animal story. Sometimes, people use the term folktale and fairy tale to mean the same thing.  A fairy tale is a folktale, but a folktale is not always a fairytale.  A fairytale is usually longer than most folk stories and takes place in the nether realm of far, far away and a long time ago. They often have some sort of royalty involved in the story (including the fairy realm); the main character (s) go on a journey where he/she is tested; they have some sort of magical help along the way; good triumphs over evil; there is a transformation or reward at the end. They usually start with “a long time ago, in a place far away” and end “happily ever after.” The characters and the journey are often metaphors for  people and challenges that are universal. Fairy tales are often fractured, but they are not the only folktales that are fractured.

So, what is a fractured fairy tale?  It is a fairy or other folk tale that has been modified in such a way as to make us laugh at an unexpected characterization, plot development or contrary point of view. (Information from Fractured Fairytales by Marilynn Kinsella)

Your assignment is to choose a fairy tale and turn it into a fractured fairy tale. You may choose to change a character, setting, part of the plot, or the ending.  Your fairy tale should be recognizable but it should be different in some way.
