TopicFor the final exam, I’d like you to reflect on your first quarter at LACM and specifically on your performance in GE 100. Because a reflection is inherently subjective, in order to grade you, I am asking that you cover the points below. You may add anything else you like.

The response should be not less than three (3) pages, typed, double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font.
(Pages 259-263 in the Norton Field Guild offers some ideas as to how to structure a reflection.)

+What has been your greatest accomplishment (what are you most proud of this quarter)?
+What has been your greatest challenge this quarter?
+In which areas of writing would you like to improve?
+What are you future goals with writing?
+How might your future writing goals interplay with your goals in the music business?

answer for the question: What I am most proud of in this semester is that I have learned some standard composition formats and also know how to analyze articles. I also improved in writing, learned a lot of words to write, and learned something about the format and content of poetry.The biggest challenge is that my English level is not very high, so I need to improve my grammar, and I also need to think hard and have a deeper understanding. Sometimes I have some difficulties in listening to the class, but my friends help me.I have improved a lot in this area of thinking and have learned a lot of words and ideas.I think in the future in the industry I will write some reports on songs and also some lyrics.I also write some lyrics in poetry, especially in English.I hope that my writing goal in the future is to use this language as my first language and improve my writing with more knowledge.

The response should be not less than three (3) pages, typed, double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font.

We have been focusing upon how those at the top of terrorist groups perform leadership roles and influence various audiences (both within their organizations and to the world at large). For this research paper compare and contrast the leadership and communication techniques of former al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden with those of one other terrorist leader. Select one other terrorist leader from al Qaeda or affiliated groups such as Zawahiri, Baghdadi or Awlaki to compare and contrast with bin Ladens leadership and communication approaches.

Assignment Specifics:

• The body of your report is to be at least FOUR FULL pages in length (not counting title page and references) and is to contain the following:
• A brief introduction, with the topic and your thesis
• A main body, containing the “meat” of the paper, where you provide the requested information supported by class readings and with your analysis
• A conclusion, summarizing your information clearly and concisely

Make sure you read the instructions carefully and that you focus your paper on answering the assigned questions. This assignment is , so you need to use scholarly sources to support your .  Use formal academic writing and do not use the first person such as ‘I’ or ‘my’; see the OWL site on . Make sure you use APA style  at the end of every sentence where you are quoting anothers ideas (or any information) that is not your own thoughts and words, like this (Bergen, 2015, para 14). Citations are required for paraphrases as well, but not the page or paragraph number in that case. I highly recommend you use the APUS writing guide  which can be found in the university library or at this link: . You are welcome to use supplementary sources to compliment the assigned readings based upon your research, but make sure you use only scholarly and credible sources (do not use open websites and you never want to use wikipedia for a college level paper). Also, dictionaries and encyclopedias as well as general news sites (like CNN, FOX News) are not appropriate for college level research papers. You need to use mainly scholarly and reputable academic books and journal articles. Also, see the  for good sources, as well as the  and the .

Requirements:

• Written according to the APA style and format (parenthetical in-text citation formats only; not end notes or footnotes);
• Use Times New Roman 12 point font;
• 1 inch margins on all sides with no paragraph indentation other than the first line by .5 inches 
• Double space all text (no extra lines or spaces after a paragraph or section headings and no added font sizes or lines either) 
• A respectable number of credible resources used, cited in the paper as in-text citations, and included on the reference page. A good rule of thumb is at least 2 scholarly sources per page of content (a minimum of 2 new scholarly sources per page in a research paper is acceptable). Use those academic and credible sources provided to you throughout the course, as well as other scholarly material obtained from conducting your own research. Freely utilize appropriate and reputable academic sources, summarize in your own words and cite accordingly.
• The paper must be free of typographical, spelling and grammatical errors (make sure to proof read before submission)
• Turn your paper in as a Word Document and title your assignment “Lastname_Progress“

Finally, be mindful of excessive direct quotes as the paper should not contain just a string of quotations from sources. Make sure you comply with all academic integrity standards expected by APUS and as slide 14 of the APUS  presentation posted in course syllabus (and the week 1 introduction forum) states Quotes cannot make up more than 10% of the text of your assignment. So paraphrase where you can and provide your own analysis and synthesis of your research (direct quotes only when necessary to support your thesis). The bottom line for academic integrity is to write an original work for this assignment (not copied from anywhere on the internet or recycled content from your own previous papers) and to properly cite your references.

Essay One: Explaining a Concept

The idea with this assignment is to write a detailed explanation of your chosen concept.  Someone reading your essay should come away with a richer, more nuanced, more complete understanding of your concept.  Recently, I’ve had students write successful papers about “artificial intelligence,” “data science,” “mindfulness,” “leadership,” “generational difference,” and “universal basic income” — just to give you an idea of topics that have worked with this assignment.  There are really countless possibilities with your topic, and if you have one you’re unsure about and want to run by me first, please do that.  I want you to feel good about your topic before you begin writing.

The formal guidelines for this essay can be found throughout Chapter 4 of your textbook, but page 149 in particular offers a detailed overview of how to write this paper. Please note: this essay must make use of a minimum of two relevant, credible sources; please follow all MLA guidelines for formatting and mechanics (link: ).  Also, include a properly formatted “Works Cited” page.

Required length: 1250 to 1500 words.

What you eat as well as other habits can either reduce or increase the chances of developing disease. Now scientists believe that what your mother ate  when she was pregnant with you may have an even greater impact on your disease risk. Much of this new area of study, epigenetics, is being done here at OHSU in Portland. Watch the video and read the short article. What are your reactions to this information, given you are enrolled in a nutrition class?  How might you use it going forward?
