Guide to Writing a Reading Response
HIST: Historical Methods

Basic Requirements:
    600-900 words, double-spaced (2 pages).
    Traditional font and margins (no tricks, please!).
    Must use Chicago Style citation (footnote style)
    If you use more than one source, a bibliography must be included.
    No outside research should be conducted, including consulting websites of any kind.  The assignment is meant to build your analytical skills, not to assess your ability to copy others.

Method:
    Consider how you might develop an argument on the reading, chapter, or topic.  You have the freedom to take the response in any direction you like.
    Develop your argument into a solid persuasive essay with an argumentative thesis, evidence from the texts, and a capable introduction and conclusion.  This is the MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF THE READING RESPONSES. 

Tips and Tactics:
    Use an appropriate amount of quotations and paraphrasing as evidence.
    Be sure to edit for typographical and grammatical errors.
    Dont forget to cite your sources
    Be sure to write in past tense.
    Avoid first-person writing and pronouns, rhetorical questions, passive voice, and poor punctuation.

This is the paper instructions:
-Choose two historical figures (The bourgeois and Proletarians). Consider the worldviews of the people you have chosen.
-Write a paper laying out a debate between these two figures on a key 19th-century issue.
-Your paper should include an introductory paragraph setting up the issue the figures will debate, as well as the perspective of your two figures.
-You should then include at least two back-and-forth positions/responses in the argument between them.
-The format is up to you, but you must use complete sentences and your paper should be reasonably free of errors. (For example, you could write as a reporter covering the debate in which you describe the positions and responses, or you could write the paper in the form of a dialogue.) You should support your analysis with quotations and citations from the course readings; (((you are not expected to conduct outside research)))

Make sure to discuss how vastly different the 2 articles are and how I’m using that to my advantage. For my intro paragraph, my professor wants me to answer the following questions. What are we talking about? How are we going to talk about it? Why should we care

For Each of the three articles you have chosen, complete the following template:
Author(s):
Journal Title:
APA (7th Edition) citation:
Review of Previous Literature on Topic: Summary of previous literature
Purpose: Direct information (word for word) from the article. Use quotation marks.
Setting & Participants: Summary of SETTING & PARTICIPANTS section.
Procedure: Summary of PROCEDURE(S) section.
Results: Summary of RESULTS section. Make sure to address the Purpose of the study.

After Summarizing all three articles using that format, think about the knowledge and skills all three of them have taught you. In your mind, formulate a complete concept of the area of research it represents.  Complete your paper with the following sections making sure to consider ALL THREE articles you have read. Implications for Practice: Why were these studies important to teachers? How could they be used by teachers in the classroom? Summary(at least TEN original and complete sentences).

Discussion: In what ways have these articles informed/transformed your understanding of the topic?

Six Sigma is a continuous improvement strategy that aids an organization in identifying, reducing, and eliminating defects from any product, process, or transaction. When using Six Sigma, a solution is not generally known at the beginning but becomes clear through use of the Six Sigma strategy.

Address the following requirements:

Identify a problem for improvement in an organization with which you are familiar, and detail an objective or desired outcome.
In the remaining pages, detail the metrics that would measure success and why those are appropriate, and explain the process for determining root causes, and what tools would be used to follow through on the steps of the Six Sigma strategy.
Directions:

Your essay is required to be four to five pages in length, which does not include the title page and reference pages, which are never a part of the content minimum requirements.
Support your submission with course material concepts, principles, and theories from the textbook and at least three scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles. Use the Saudi Digital Library to find your resources.
Use Saudi Electronic University academic writing standards and follow APA style guidelines.
It is strongly encouraged that you submit all assignments into Turnitin prior to submitting them to your instructor for grading. If you are unsure how to submit an assignment into the Originality Check tool, review the Turnitin Student Guide for step-by-step instructions.
Review the grading rubric to see how you will be graded for this assignment.

1: Discussion Forum 2:  Using the links available in the discussion forum description, you will navigate to those webpages and assess your learning style and motivational style (You will not need to post the results of your assessment, but you will discuss them with your classmates).  For your seed post you will need at least 2 paragraphs including:
    What was your primary learning style (Visual, Auditory, or Tactile)?  Did this information surprise you and importantly, how can you potentially leverage this information to maximize your learning?
    What was your primary Motivation Style (Goal Oriented, Social/Relationship Oriented, or Learning Oriented)? Did this information surprise you and importantly, how can you potentially leverage this information to maximize your learning?
    Dont be afraid to do a little research on the web about learning styles or motivation styles to help shape your answers!

Primary Learning Style:  Visual 45%;  Auditory 40% ; Tactile 15%

Visual Style 45%
If you are a visual learner, you learn by reading or seeing pictures. You understand and remember things by sight. You can picture what you are learning in your head, and you learn best by using methods that are primarily visual. You like to see what you are learning.
As a visual learner, you are usually neat and clean. You often close your eyes to visualize or remember something, and you will find something to watch if you become bored. You may have difficulty with spoken directions and may be easily distracted by sounds. You are attracted to color and to spoken language (like stories) that is rich in imagery.

Auditory Style 40%
If you are an auditory learner, you learn by hearing and listening. You understand and remember things you have heard. You store information by the way it sounds, and you have an easier time understanding spoken instructions than written ones. You often learn by reading out loud because you have to hear it or speak it in order to know it.
As an auditory learner, you probably hum or talk to yourself or others if you become bored. People may think you are not paying attention, even though you may be hearing and understanding everything being

Tactile Style 20%
f you are a tactile learner, you learn by touching and doing. You understand and remember things through physical movement. You are a “hands-on” learner who prefers to touch, move, build, or draw what you learn, and you tend to learn better when some type of physical activity is involved. You need to be active and take frequent breaks, you often speak with your hands and with gestures, and you may have difficulty sitting still.
As a tactile learner, you like to take things apart and put things together, and you tend to find reasons to tinker or move around when you become bored. You may be very well coordinated and have good athletic ability. You can easily remember things that were done but may have difficulty remembering what you saw or heard in the process. You often communicate by touching, and you appreciate physically expressed forms of encouragement, such as a pat on the back.

Motivation Style

Your primary motivation style:  Goal-oriented

Your secondary motivation style:  Learning-oriented

If you are goal-oriented, you probably reach for your goals through a direct and obvious route. This might lead you to a reference book, your computer, or to call an expertwhatever means is available. You usually prefer meeting in-person when its the most effective method and dont find learning, itself, much fun.

If you are relationship-oriented, you take part in learning mainly for social contact. When you meet and interact with people, you learn things along the way. You may not like working independently or focusing on topics (separately from the people) because that doesnt give you the interactivity you crave.

If you are learning-oriented, the practice of learning, itself, drives you. You search for knowledge because learning delights you and you may become frustrated by anything that requires you to spend more time following procedures than on actual learning.

There is also a fourth motivation style I havent yet addressed, primarily because its far less common than the other three styles and because you might not think of it as a motivation style at all. That style is thrill-oriented, drawn not to any particular thing but, rather, away from anything that people perceive as tying them down, bounding them, or pulling them in any predictable direction. This isnt to say that thrill-oriented learners cant acquire goals, relationships, or curiosity, but if any of these feel too time-consuming, invasive, or binding, the learner becomes restless and perhaps experiences a compulsion to go in another directionany other directionto feel free. If youre thrill-oriented, youre likely to be impulsive and you want to remain impulsive; you seek thrills and flee anything that doesnt offer you that sensation. All of us at one time or another feel impulsive or have an urge to do something else, but we usually moderate these urges when they come, instead of always following where they lead.
