Task Description
Essay Title: Nothing New Under the Sun
In the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible, King Solomon states that “There is nothing new under the sun”. Looking back over the history of mankind in all its facets, social, economic, wars and conflicts etc, do you agree or disagree with this statement? Provide examples in support of your argument and cite other authors with similar or differing opinions. You may however, come to your own conclusions at the end of the argument.
6 academic sources are required as a minimum, Harvard referencing throughout the text is mandatory and submissions that do not meet these criteria will be rejected (see notes below). In particular, you should ensure that your references actually support the point you wish to make, since they will be checked.
Students are invited to submit a short outline of their essay for tutor approval and advice by Week 4. This should be in the form of an e-mail and should not exceed one page.
Format
1500 words +/- 10% (not including cover page, table of contents, bibliography and appendix, although these are all required). Submissions that do not reach the minimum wordcount will not be accepted.
Re-take: Individual Assignment
Deadline: Please see the Moodle page of the module.
The assignment will be assessed based on the following criteria (see the grid on Moodle):
• Structural logic (10%)
• Background information (20%)
• Argument & rationale (30%)
• Relevant Conclusions (15%)
• Correct in-text Harvard referencing & bibliography (15%)
• Presentation, format, paragraphing and accuracy (10%)
The resit for the assignment is the same subject as above; you may resubmit the same paper, with corrections, that you submitted for the original deadline. The resubmission deadline will be specified on Moodle after the grades for the original submission are published.
Academic conduct notice
Harvard-style referencing needs to be used consistently throughout. Incomplete referencing shall result in reporting the case to the Academic Conduct Officer, who keeps a record of such violations. First offenders may resubmit their papers and may receive 40% at most. Repeated violations of academic standards shall be sanctioned in line with the plagiarism regulations as detailed in the Student Handbook.
Where the Academic Conduct Officer has reason to suspect that a piece of work submitted by a student was wholly or in part written by someone other than the student who submitted it, and this has not been disclosed by the student, they may call for the student to defend the work in a viva or a written comprehension test. The burden of proof in such a viva or test will be upon the student to demonstrate to the examination panel’s satisfaction his/her full comprehension of the work s/he has submitted. Failure to appear without satisfactory explanation will result in immediate failure of that assessment, with consequences of academic misconduct and application of sanctions.

Title: The Wicked Side of Generic Rice: The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Music Education and Rehabilitation
For this assignment you will be writing an argumentative (persuasive) essay based on your chosen argumentative thesis, using credible sources and information to support each of your claims. Include the words generic, rice, and wicked.
Your essay must be at least 5 pages long (double-spaced, not counting the Works Cited page), use at least 10 sources (listed on the Works Cited), and use the MLA format for a documented essay. (Wikipedia is not an acceptable source.) Upload your DRE to the assignment link as a Word document.
Your paper will be run through TurnItIn, which checks for plagiarism and AI. If you use quotes but attribute the sources correctly, this will be acceptable. However, use quotations sparingly, and paraphrase or summarize information from references as much as possible. The essay must reflect your analysis of your chosen topic and be written in your own words.
Use the content you have written for assignments during the semester to populate your essay:

“Exploring Japanese Culture and Society Through Film and Literature: Critical Responses”
Critical Response Forum – this forum is for a more thought out response that addresses: 1) the film, 2) the reading(s), and 3) your thoughts about how they relate to the culture, history, society, current events, etc., of Japan and/or other societies. It should be ~300 words.
Any response containing uncredited material by another author or a generic summary of a film that appears to be generated by ChatGPT or other artificial intelligence will receive a zero. Formal citations are not necessary, but if you refer to a specific part of the film or reading, it is helpful if you include a timestamp or page number. If you are citing a source outside the course texts, please include a citation.
I need 8 critical responses- from week 6-13 of the syllabus that i attached. You need to write 300 words for each response.

“Improving and Enhancing a Research Paper: Implementing Feedback and Refining Field Research on Enterprise Architecture”
Hey,
I have gotten feedback on my research paper but don’t have the time to implement it. Underneath you will find the feedback on the paper I have attached. The goal here is to edit the paper were it is necessary, you don’t have to rewrite the whole thing only implement the feedback and that’s it. It is very important that there is no plagiarism. Also the second part of the paper is fieldresearch I have done, I have replaced all names and companys because of privacy of the subjects, I think there needs a lot of work in that part of the paper. An important aspect of the feedback is that now the interviews are reviewed per person and not per question, and that will need to change.
It is very important that the paper stays in the same style as it is written now.
Feedback:
Points for improvement:
· Relatively short, and missing a thorough elaboration on the subject
· Tables without table title
· Many paragraphs are written with only one reference, or even no reference. A critical writing style is missing
· You might consider starting with thoroughly defining an entreprise architecture, and which frameworks are attached to this. On the one hand, this would help to orient the reader to your subject. On the other hand, it allows to compare different theoretical views that may help to better understand or theorize the related roles
· The literature overview would benefit from a structured literature approach. Although §4 hints in this direction, a protocol-based and comparative approach is missing.
· The methodology section is very short, and misses important details regarding the motivation for the research methods, selection of respondents, operationalization, coding techniques, and criteria of validity and reliability.
· Interviews are rather a data collection technique, please position this into a broader research method
· Not a single methodological reference is provided.
· The interview results seem to be presented per respondent, without thorough synthesis.
· No interview transcripts in appendix.
· Also the use of coding tables is missing. This is however crucial for conducting a qualitative analysis
· The interview results are rather a series of short paragraphs, starting with some bold keywords.
· The same summary-based writing style has been used in the discussion, without a deeper theory building attempt
· The reference list is very small and showing a lot of white space. This also explains the lack of insight into the work -

Book Review
Write a substantial book review. Suitable books could be fiction or nonfiction, although nonfiction is generally easier to work with. If you choose to review a book, it should be about one of the regions/countries covered in the course, or one (or more) of the major themes of World Geography. I don’t have any preconceptions about what books would work or not, but if you want suggestions or clarification, please let me know.
Book reviews should include the following:
A full bibliographic citation.
A brief discussion of the author(s). E.g., if the author is an academic, where do they work? What field do they study? What is their specialty area? What other books have they written? (Etc.)
A summary of the book’s contents. What is the book about? How is it organized? What are the author’s conclusions or key takeaways from the book? For an academic book, what does it contribute to the field?
A discussion of how the book relates to or builds on the course materials. What did you learn from the book? How does it influence your knowledge and understanding of world geography?
Book reviews should be about 4-5 pages in length. The summary should be the longest part (~2-3 pages); author bio and discussion should be about a page each. Illustrations are a plus, but do not count towards length. -
