Literary Analysis Draft

By the due date assigned, submit your essay as a Microsoft Word document to the Discussion Area at the bottom of the page.

By the end of the week, comment on at least two of your classmate’s submissions using the peer review questions provided below.

The major assignment for this week is to compose a 900-word essay comparing The Odyssey with either The Song of Roland or Dante’s Inferno. In this paper you will write an in-depth analysis using your own ideas and excerpts from the epic poems in the form of quotes, paraphrase, or summary.

Select one of the following topics:

  1. Although nearly two thousand years separate The Odyssey and Dante’s Inferno, both works are epic poems that:
    • Explore the relationship between humanity and the divine. Employ journey as a metaphor for maturation.
    • Reveal and teach cultural values about leadership.
    • Caution audiences about the appeal of temptation.
    • Contemplate the nature of immortality.
    • Compare and contrast how one of these topics is developed in The Odyssey and Dante’s Inferno.
  2. The Song of Roland and The Odyssey, though separated by thousands of years, are both epic works whose protagonists are warriors engaged in violent conflict: Roland is a medieval Crusader and Odysseus is on a long journey home after conquering Troy.
    Additionally, both works:

    • Explore the relationship between humanity and the divine.
    • Reveal and teach cultural values about leadership.
    • Contemplate the nature of immortality.
    • Examine the moral and practical implications of loyalty and betrayal.

Compare and contrast how one of these topics is developed in The Song of Roland and The Odyssey.

Proofread the rough draft to ensure:

  • The thesis is clear and focused, and the introduction includes all the necessary information.
  • The discussion of evidence includes quotes, paraphrases, or summaries and synthesizes this material and your ideas.
  • The conclusion is appropriate and reinforces the paper’s main ideas without repeating the introduction word for word.
  • The essay is formatted in APA style throughout. It uses appropriate grammar, spelling, and mechanics, and quoted material does not exceed 25% of the paper.

When responding to your peers please answer the following questions:

  • Locate the paper’s thesis. Is it obvious or unclear? Does it establish an interpretation of a key theme from the poem? Is the thesis as specific as it needs to be?
  • Is each paragraph organized around one key point? Do topic sentences clearly indicate the focus of each paragraph?
  • Does the author support each main point with direct quotations that are analyzed and explained? Do you have any suggestions for improvement?
  • Where do you disagree with the author’s analysis? What aspects of the poems are left unexplained?

explanation that incorporates the structural-functional theory to explain how gender was at work to keep society orderly in the social setting that you chose.

Participant Observation: A Study in Gender Roles
Have you ever thought about how much of everyday life is organized by gender? When you stop to think about it, much of what most people do during the routine of a normal day is categorized as either masculine or feminine. From the soap you use for that morning shower to the restroom you use when are work, much of what we do is influenced — even dictated — by what society says is appropriate because of our biological sex.
To explore this concept of a gendered society in more depth, you will use the Participant Observation Checklist to organize and conduct your research to identify and explain two examples of how society is segmented by gender at any single location in your community. You might choose a park, a grocery store, your favorite pub or fast food restaurant, a department store, or the local hardware store. Remember that you should be acting in both the participant and observer roles. Look around to see if there are obvious signs that gender determines some aspect of how people act in that location. Then, use the structural functional theory to explain how separating events, actions, or even merchandize by gender works to keep the overall society stable.
For example, if you chose to observe as a casual shopper in department store, one obvious sign that gender is important in how the store is organized is that there are likely two different departments for women’s and men’s clothing. That same department store would likely have restrooms designated for ladies and gentlemen, too. The structural-functional perspective would suggest that separating the clothing by gender makes it more convenient for shoppers to find what they want, and separate restrooms for men and women are thought to be necessary for reasons of modesty that are part of stable cultural patterns of behavior within this society.
Instructions:
Complete the Participant Observation checklist to assist you with organizing your research and to take notes during your observation. Then, using your observation notes, write a paper that has these elements:

  • An introduction that explains the research conducted and the purpose of the paper
  • Detailed descriptions of the two observed instances in which gender influenced the actions of people in the real world. Be sure to address these questions: Who? What? Where? When?
  • An explanation that incorporates the structural-functional theory to explain how gender was at work to keep society orderly in the social setting that you chose.
  • A summary that restates the main points of the paper and suggests one lesson learned from the observation that is applicable to your own life in a gendered world.

Your paper should be between 4 and 5 pages, plus a title and reference page. You should include in-text citations in APA format for at least one academic source in addition to the course text. You should include the Participant Observation Checklist when you upload the Assignment into the Unit 4 Assignment Dropbox.

Describe the basic functioning of a neuron beginning with receiving signals from other neurons or sense organs and ending with the transmission of a signal to another neuron

/in /by

 Psychology homework help

The Midterm Essay Examination will cover the material we have studied in Modules 1 – 4. You will need to answer four essay questions, each question requires a three to five paragraph (250 – 500 word) answer. Each answer should be clearly labeled with the question number and a copy of the question. Your answers need to be supported with information from the textbook or other appropriate sources. Do NOT use wikipedia or other encyclopedias, dictionaries or online sources such as Ask.com.

  1. Describe the basic functioning of a neuron beginning with receiving signals from other neurons or sense organs and ending with the transmission of a signal to another neuron. Explain how a pattern of neuron firing is related to behavior.
  2. Describe one personality trait that you believe to be highly heritable (mostly a product of genetics) and another trait that seems to be much less so. Provide reasons for your answer, and explain why you would expect genetics to exert a much greater impact on some personality traits than on others.
  3. You have been hired by a large public school system to construct a musical aptitude test. Describe what itmeans to standardize a test and the methods you would use to assess its reliability and validity. Explain why it might be more difficult to develop a valid musical aptitude test than a reliable one.
  4. Ray was assigned to barracks in a very old building with old plumbing. While showering for the first time, he heard the toilet flush and then, a few second later, was scalded when the water suddenly became much hotter. He screamed in pain. The next time he took a shower, when he heard the toilet flush, he immediately jumped out of the stream of water and screamed before the water became hotter. Name and describe the process of learning that took place. Be sure to use the correct terminology associated with all of the components involved in the process. For example, originally the sound of the toilet flushing was a (an)____________ and it later became a (an) __________ because of the process of learning.
  5. Mr. and Mrs. McDonald believe in the importance of stern discipline; they impose strict rules which they expect their children to obey without question. They penalize misbehavior harshly, frequently with a spanking. Mr. and Mrs. Mendoza instead use milder forms of punishment to enforce their rules. They also have regular family meetings in which their children help them to establish household rules and penalties for breaking them. What is the name of each of these two approaches to parenting and what do you see as the advantages and disadvantages of each. Explain the reasons for your answer.
  6. When your friend hears that you are taking a psychology course, she asserts that psychology is simply common sense. Explain why common sense is not the best way to understand human behavior. Describe the methods of science and explain why they are superior to common sense in understanding human behavior.

Why would a practicing nurse want to publish?

/in /by
Question descriptionThis is a nursing paper
Wherever you are within the RN-to-BSN Program, you have come in contact with American Psychological Association (APA) format. As you recall, this is the citing and referencing system used when publishing in most peer-reviewed journals. Also, recall that peer-reviewed journals are those that are reviewed by experts in the field prior to publishing in said journal.
We have heard from many of you wondering why the RN-to-BSN Program requires and grades APA format in your writing assignments.
Your Capstone project in your final course prior to graduation will require APA format. When your Capstone is complete, you are about 70% along the way to having material suitable for publishing. Wouldn’t that be a nice addition to your resume? If you pursue higher education, APA will be required as a part of that educational track as well. Finally, there is publishing as a part of your professional role. Thus far, you have explored several peer-reviewed journals. Have you noticed that many articles are written by practicing nurses?
Your assigned Discussion Forum is as follows.
Please consult your favorite professional journal and search for “Author Guidelines.” Attach the guidelines to the Discussion Forum along with your discussion content (we will set Moodle to accept 1 attachment). The Discussion Forum itself will include your comments on the following:
DIRECTIONS:
1. Why would a practicing nurse want to publish?
2. Comment on the guidelines you’ve attached to your discussion. Point out those things that
are familiar and those things that are not.
3. If you were writing an article today, do you currently have enough information to successfully follow the guidelines?
4. If you do not have enough information to successfully follow the guidelines, where might you locate the information?
Your personal opinion is warranted for item one (1) above. However, for the remaining items (2-4), you must show critical analysis of the topic and, in addition, all items must be supported by evidence from the scholarly literature. Your response must be typed (or copied and pasted) directly into the discussion thread. The word limit is no less than 200 or more than 300 words, with at least 2 peer-reviewed journals no older than 5 years. Please double space between paragraphs but do NOT use double spacing or indentions throughout. The only APA format should be for citation of sources in-text and the reference list. No file can be uploaded.
