Hello everyone, my cultural paper topic is about womens rights in Guatemala! This was not a new topic for me because I knew somewhat of what was happening in Guatemala but didnt know to what extent. Looking further into it I was shocked. So many women are killed by domestic violence and there are many children who are raped. Children who are giving birth at the ages of 10-14. This was so shocking and it made me very sad! Women are also not receiving the same education as men. Most women only receive 3 years of schooling while men get 8. I specially selected this topic because I have always had an interest in Guatemala itself. I love learning about their culture. I also had little knowledge of the power struggle women were facing. So it seemed like a perfect fit. This topic fits perfectly into the paper because my underrepresented group is women and my spanish speaking country is Guatemala!

Since we already work together in this assignment I did some comments on the last work on Welcome to Sodom Situational Analysis.

PLEASE check all the comments in the file “COMMENT – WELCOME TO SODOM..”  and correct them in the file “WELCOME TO SODOM SITUATIONAL..”

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ADD ANY OTHER SOURCES OR EXTRA PAGES. JUST CORRECT WITH THE COMMENT MADE PLEASE.

Please use simple English (i’m not mother language)

Identify the argument in Anna Quindlen’s Newsweek essay, “We’ve Been Here Before,” and assess the quality of that argument. What kind of argument is Quindlen making? What are the potential problems with this kind of argument? Does she prove it? What is the quality of her evidence?
Identify examples of fallacies in Quindlen’s essay. Quote examples and explain how they fit the definitions of specific fallacies. Also, use the Stoker essay as a counter-point to Quindlen’s argument. What could Quindlen learn from Stoker? Remember, you are not debating the war in Iraq, or the successes or failures of the Bush presidency. This is an analysis of Quindlen’s argument. The fine print: The paper is to be 3 – 4 pages in length. It is to have a works cited page – even on the first draft. All drafts are typed, double-spaced, and in a 12pt. Times Roman font and in MLA Format.

Have you ever been an ecotourist, either in another country or in the USA?  What was that experience like, and how did it influence your feelings about natural environments or sustainability?  If you have not, where would you like to visit, and why?  Is it important for you to travel in a sustainable, environmentally-sensitive way?  What do you see as the primary differences between traditional tourism and sustainable tourism/ecotourism?

Feel free to draw upon and quote Williams or Geerts in your response.

Cause and Effect Paper (with ethos, pathos, logos)

Consider how Covid-19 (and everything related) has impacted your life in the past few months. Then, choose one or two of the following questions and formulate a personal response to the effect(s) of this time, using your own experience to answer the questions. This will serve as the prewriting for your essay. Then, formulate a main idea related to your experience. For example, you might pick question number 2. If you find that your attention span is getting shorter, you might describe why thats the case and how it has impacted you. Build the effect that Covid has had on your attention span. This is the so what of your essay. Write a clear thesis that shows your experience and the significance of your experience (ethos). Use examples and explanations to connect to your audience (pathos), and then make some logical conclusion about the effects during this unprecedented time (logos). In other words, use this essay to demonstrate a personal, thoughtful, and organized cause and effect to living during the time of Covid-19.

These questions are designed to provoke thought. Think of them in terms of cause and effect. In other words, the cause is some aspect of Covid- 19, and the effect (s) are the result (s) of how your chosen aspect (s) has affected you. You might have additional questions youd like to cover. If thats the case, please e-mail me first.
