  • The Impact of Clarisse’s Friendship on Montag’s Journey to Uncover the Truth in Fahrenheit 451

    In Fahrenheit 451, Clarisse’s friendship with Montag, a character who burns books, serves as a turning point for his life. In the midst of informing Montag about the unfortunate events hidden by their society, a hunger for change and personal growth ignited in him. How did getting to know Clarisse impact Montags drive to uncover the realities of their world and seek self discovery? Clarisse’s influence empowers Montag to challenge societal customs and begin on a journey to discover the truth.
    (This is my work that I started) if you could just finish it from there.
    These are the instructions 
    1. Choose an aspect or section of the novel, Fahrenheit 451, that you find particularly interesting.  It will be impossible to analyze the entire novel effectively, so make sure that your essay has a specific focus.
    2. Develop a question related to your answer info for #1. For example: “How does meaning of fire change throughout the novel?” 
    3. Your developed one sentence answer to your question will be your thesis statement. Both your question and your thesis statement will be in your introduction.
    4. Write a brief outline, so you know what the main idea of each paragraph will be. An outline can be as simple as my example below.
    Sample Basic Outline
    Introduction- write your question and your thesis statement (developed answer to your question).
    Body paragraph 1- Include examples from the text to support your answer (thesis statement). 
    Body paragraph 2- Include examples from the text to support your answer (thesis statement). 
    Body paragraph 3+- Include examples from the text to support your answer (thesis statement). 
    Conclusion- write what will go in this paragraph (closure, sum up main ideas, rephrase thesis)  

  • Assignment #1: Developing a PICOT Question and Understanding its Significance in Clinical Nursing Practice

    Assignment #1 Instructions: 
    Each member will utilize the AAACN template to write a PICOT question (ideally at the intervention or therapy level).
    Then, as a group, you will evaluate all three (3) written questions and select one of the three questions to use as the basis of your search and evidence review for the rest of the semester.
    Then, after the group selects a question, they will answer the following questions: 
    What is the background question or best practice question that leads to your PICOT?
    What is the type of PICOT (intervention, therapy, prognosis/prediction, etiology, or meaning) and what is the rationale for the choice of question? *NOTE* I strongly suggest writing and intervention or therapy level PICOT question. This will facilitate all future assignments.
    What are the PICOT elements?
    What does P, I, C, O, T stand for and what are the specific P, I, C, O, and T elements of your question?
    What is the written PICOT question? (in proper phrasing based upon the AAACN template)
    What is the significance of the PICOT to clinical nursing practice?
    Why does searching the evidence for this question matter? What are some statistics related to the population, intervention, outcomes? Is there a lack of clarity regarding the practice? Are you looking to see if an established practice should be changed? How could this impact the way that you provide nursing care?
    You should have AT LEAST one academic citation in this section. In professional writing, you must have sources to support your claims. Without an identified source, what you are saying is just opinion. You are looking for something to legitimize the significance.
