  • “Exploring the Cultural Significance of American Horror Story: A Critical Analysis of Society Through Television”

    AMERICAN HORROR STORY 
    The Topic: Choose a recent television show that you think says something compelling about our society. To keep your analysis relevant, the episodes you will discuss must have been created within the last two years. If you don’t watch TV, you might take a look at the most popular shows on various streaming services and watch one episode. You can write about several episodes or even a single episode for this essay. 
    The Assignment: Write a well-developed, analytical essay in which you make a debatable argument about the show or its impact on viewers. The following advice will prove helpful: “In interpreting TV, you still need to rely on your skills in description and summary because you need to describe the show for your reader, but your purpose will be to go beyond these writing tasks towards the construction of interpretive arguments about the cultural significance of your topic” (Maasik and Solomon 249). Think of this essay as a graded draft of your research paper—you will build on this essay for the research paper.
    Pre-writing Questions:
    What kind of issues does the show address?
    What are the show’s hidden messages?
    What kinds of graphic images appear?
    What stereotypes does the show perpetuate or challenge?
    What cultural myths or ideologies does the show perpetuate?
    What does the dialogue reveal about the characters?
    Which characters tend to be mocked and which characters are taken seriously?
    What is the genre of the show?
    Requirements:
    At least 4 full pages
    Introduction with hook and persuasive thesis statement
    Body paragraphs with topic sentences, specific support from the show, and analysis
    Quotations from three outside sources
    At least one must come from a peer-reviewed journal or book accessed through the library
    The rest must come from the library databases
    Thought-provoking conclusion
    Works Cited (include the TV show)
    MLA format
    Tips
    Make sure that your thesis goes beyond stating that the show has a positive or negative influence. Aim for an original argument that reveals something about our culture or the show’s deeper message. 
    Your three sources must come from a library database or a book.
    Although you might have trouble finding a scholarly article about your TV show, you might find articles about the social issue or TV genre you are exploring.
    Your research paper will be a continuation of this topic, so choose a topic and TV show that you find compelling.
    This is an analysis essay, not a report or a review. 

  • “Choosing the Right Methodology for System and Application Security: A Comprehensive Analysis of Qualitative and Quantitative Approaches”

    Instructions
    Having developed a research or project question and conducted a literature review, the next step is to apply an appropriate research methodology to address the research or project question. When choosing a research methodology or Capstone project technique, it is essential that the researcher chooses a methodology or technique that matches the research or project question.
    For clarity, learners completing a dissertation use the terms “research question” and “research method.” Learners completing a Capstone Project use the terms “project question” and “project technique.”
    Use your readings and research to determine which method would be best for your topic. Review the format of the methodology section by comparing it to others you examined. For your methodology section:
    Describe methods, populations, and ethics for the system and application security issue.
    The approved qualitative method or technique is generic qualitative inquiry.
    The approved quantitative method or technique is quantitative regression.
    Synthesize the current best quantitative or qualitative methodological approach for your system and application security issue.
    For quantitative regression method or technique, identify which instrument will be used for operational or measuring variables; for qualitative research, what interview questions will be asked.
    Describe the population chosen and how participants are contacted.
    Describe how sampling is performed.
    Review the specific documents from your program on research methodology.
    Your writing should demonstrate critical thinking skills, a writing style in which sentences are clear, concise, and direct, and provide a well-supported analysis using appropriately formatted references.
    Refer to the helpful links in Resources as you prepare your assignment.
    Additional Requirements
    Written communication: Ensure written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.
    Number of resources: At least 20 current scholarly and/or professional resources.
    Formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to current APA guidelines.
    Length: 4–6 double-spaced pages of content plus title and reference pages.
    Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.

  • Title: The Evolution of a Nursing Theory: Exploring the Development and Impact of [Theorist’s Name] Theory

    Directions
    In this assessment, you are going to explore how a nurse theorist of your choice created their theory. You will become the theorist immersing yourself in the writings from the earliest mentioned to the most current literature. Writing in the voice of the theorist (taking on the persona of the theorist), you will create the theory through the following four stages.
    In the first stage, theorizing occurs. This is where you, as the theorist, identify the concepts of what nursing is and is not. Perhaps you questioned what concepts were guiding those in nursing practice and then started to question your role. You started asking yourself, “Where am I in nursing, and where the profession is going? Is there some overarching understanding that guides the professional in his or her practice?” This is where you recognize that a theory is needed.
    In the second stage, syntax is developed. This is where you will define the terms, explain relationships between the terms, and examine their expansion. Syntax development is an evolution. Consider, for example, Jean Watson. She starts by defining the word “caring.” Within the last several years, she has refined her terminology changing the term caring to caritas and identified the relationships between terms. This demonstrates a growth and maturation from decades of research she and other scholars did to produce the theory of caring.
    The third stage is theory testing. Here, the theorists and other researchers consider whether this theory helps answer questions that arise in nursing. This is where your theory is used by a widening group of researchers. For example, graduate nursing students request to use the tool you developed while testing your theory in an area of nursing.
    The fourth and last stage is evaluation. This is where the theory is used in practice with the goal of improving healthcare. It is evidenced in the development of policies, procedures and best practice standards that have evolved from theory implementation.
    Assessment Details
    Begin your paper with an introductory paragraph that describes why you chose this theorist. First person voice (I, me, etc.) is acceptable in this paper.
    Write in the first person voice (I, me, our, etc.) as the theorist. For example: I, Dr. Jean Watson, found that caring was a core concept of how I viewed nursing. To me, caring is the essence of nursing.
    Use the four stages (theorizing, syntax, theory testing, and evaluation) to explain how your theory was developed and used in nursing.
    In the first (theorizing) stage, provide the historical context that influenced the theorist’s thinking.
    In the second (syntax) stage, describe the development of the concepts and statements.
    In the third (theory testing), provide two (2) examples of research examining the theory.
    In the fourth (evaluation), provide three (3) examples of how the theory has been used in practice and a brief evaluation of the theory.

    Normal curve and probability 
    1. The average man weighs 170 pounds (with a standard deviation of 7.5). Hockey player Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins, who scored 103 points in the 2008-09 season, led his team to the Stanley Cup and weighs 193 pounds.
    How does Sidney Crosby compare to his band?
    (Be precise and complete in your answer: Present all your calculations, present its position in words and on a graph, and present all the percentages associated with its position). 
    2. In the NHL, the average player weight is 202 pounds (with a standard deviation of 6.4 pounds).
    Where does Sidney fit into this group?
    (Be precise and complete in your answer: Present all your calculations, present its position in words and on a graph, and present all the percentages associated with its position). 
    3. What conclusion can you draw from the previous questions?
    Go to the discussion forum and share your findings. We’ll come back to your observations later in the course. 
    The sampling distributions 
    1. The social skills level of a four-year-old child measured using a standardized scale is 20.9 (standard deviation = 3.2) and is normally distributed. A community health centre hires you to examine the social skills of a group of children with autism. In fact, the centre’s leaders want to know where this group of 15 four-year-old autistic children stands with an average score of 19.5. 
    2. All else being equal, what would happen to score z and your conclusion if the group      were instead composed of 50 children?   
    Correlation 
    1. Determine the meaning (positive or negative) of each graph. Then, rank them in              ascending order (from weak to strong) according to their strength. 
    Note: Remember that there are mathematical formulas that allow us to determine the       exact strength of the relationship. We base our judgment here on a cloud of points, in         order to introduce you to the concept of relationship and allow you to understand it.

  • The Power of Persuasion: A Rhetorical Analysis of Barack Obama’s “Yes We Can” Speech Title: “The Power of Rhetoric in Our Daily Lives: Reflection and Analysis”

    Write a 2-3-page (500-750 words) rhetorical analysis on the effectiveness of an the below speech.
    Barack Obama – “Yes We Can” https://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/convention2008/barackobamavictoryspeech.htm
    Why speeches? A speech operates much like an essay: There will be an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. In addition, many speeches are given to persuade an audience: citizens, voters, etc. Some of the most memorable lines in history — even a few that we discussed in our tutorials — come from persuasive speeches. In each of the texts above, we can really see how powerful persuasion and rhetoric can be in the hands of a gifted writer and speaker.
    A. Directions
    Step 1: Write a Rhetorical Analysis Essay
    For the bulk of your assignment, you will want to include your analysis of the text. However, it will be beneficial to provide context for your reader. Consider the following when writing your essay:
    Audience: Who was the original audience for this text?
    Occasion: When/why was this text written?
    Purpose: What is the author’s purpose? What does the author want the audience to learn?
    Subject: What is this text about?
    Tone: What is the tone? Is it formal? Celebratory? Casual? Somber?
    Be sure to include the following:
    1. Introduction
    In your introduction, provide a brief overview of the article (consider the questions listed above). Consider the author’s purpose, and if the author is effective in achieving that purpose.
    2. Thesis Statement
    Your thesis statement is one sentence that provides an overview of your essay. A thesis statement is not a question, and is something that you will debate/argue in the paper. A thesis statement is never a question; instead, it is a declarative statement that states the central purpose of the essay. In a persuasive essay, such as this one, the thesis statement will state your main claim or central argument. For this essay, your thesis statement should state a clear claim about how the author uses rhetoric in the essay, and whether the essay is effective.
    Sample Thesis Statement: In Smith’s article “On Recycling for the Future,” the author uses a combination of logical and emotional appeals to effectively convince the reader that all communities should promote and support recycling.
    Note that this thesis states the author and the title, a position (the author is effective), and names some specific rhetorical devices.
    3. Body of the Essay
    In the body of your essay, find specific examples in the text to support your points. If you want to argue that the author is effective in using rhetorical questions, for example, then be sure to show the textual evidence in your paragraph. Direct quotes are often the best evidence. Identify the type of rhetorical device, and then explain how and to what effect the author uses this device. Identify the type of rhetorical device, and then explain how and to what effect the author uses this device.
    4. Documentation
    Remember that whenever we use information from a source, we must cite that source. As you include your quotes and examples from the essay, include your citation. You should also include complete citations following APA guidelines in a references section at the end of the paper. You are only required to use the one source, the article you are analyzing, but if you use other sources, be sure to cite these as well.
    5. Conclusion
    In any conclusion, we need to summarize our paper and include one of the following:
    a call to action
    a final appeal
    a solution
    Perhaps after reading and analyzing this article, we want to have a call to action because the author is so effective on the topic. On the other hand, we could include a solution that the author is not effective in his or her purpose.
    Step 2: Reflection Questions
    Below your assignment, include answers to all of the following reflection questions:
    We use rhetoric all the time, perhaps without even realizing it, to persuade our audience to accept our point of view. These speeches were all historical events, but we use rhetoric in our daily lives as well. How have you used rhetoric in the past week? (2-3 sentences)
    As we go through our course discussing the power of persuasion and write our own persuasive documents, what rhetorical strategies will you use to persuade your audience? (2-3 sentences)
    What difficulties did you face while reading the text and analyzing for rhetorical effectiveness? How did you overcome these difficulties? (2-3 sentences)
    Refer to the checklist below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.
    Introduction and Thesis
    ❒ Have you included an engaging introduction?
    ❒ Have you written a thesis statement with an overview of your paper and your purpose for writing?
    Background and Context
    ❒ Have you included your background and context with the audience, purpose, and tone?

    ❒ Have you included a conclusion with a call to action, a final appeal, or a solution?
    Conventions
    ❒ Have you double-checked for correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, formatting, and capitalization?
    ❒ Have you proofread to find and correct typos?
    Reflection
    ❒ Have you answered all reflection questions thoughtfully and included insights, observations, and/or examples in all responses?
    ❒ Are your answers to the reflection questions included on a separate page below the main assignment?
