Part one : Looking backwards :refleictive practice.Examine your prior experiences working with youth and children and their impact on your professional practice (in your classroom(s) or other educational setting(s)). Consider the grade/functional levels and the content/disciplines for which you designed and implemented instruction. Consider the learning outcomes that resulted, the challenges you faced, and your core beliefs about teaching and learning. Afterwards, address the following questions:
• Name and describe impacts you have had on students’ learning.
• Discuss ways in which you have used feedback from your instructorsto improve your practice.
• Discuss any areas of concern you might have regarding the development of your ability to meet the needs of diverse learners and explain why.
PART TWO – Looking Forward: Goal Setting
For this section you will construct two (2) professional goals, anchored by your Looking Backwards: Reflective Practice exercise. Your goals should address areas of growth that you wish to develop early in your program. Each goal should be measurable with a clear outcome (e.g., To move from a primarily
lecture style of course instruction to the use of interactive learning, To
establish ongoing communication with parents/guardians for an 80% homework completion rate in my class; Strengthen my classroom management
skills for a decrease in time off task during whole group instruction).
Once you have established clear, measurable goals, enumerate each:

Exploring the British Isles: Land, History, and Culture
Major Heading #1: The British Isles and United Kingdom Defined
Describe the land masses of the British Isles, meaning what countries comprise the British Isles and which ones are considered part of the United Kingdom? How would you describe the land, natural resources, and food sources available?
Major Heading #2: History and Culture of the British Isles
Describe the history and culture as well as the food patterns of each country within the Isles/UK. Include the religion(s) practiced (you may have to go on line for this information) and holidays celebrated? What are several of the famous food dishes you can expect if visiting this area of the world (describe at least 5). You may use sub-headings to improve the flow of your paper and address topics you wish to add.
Heading #3: My Opinion and Curiosities
Give your opinion of the British Isles and this culture in comparison to the United States. How do those from the United States behave differently? What are some similarities besides speaking English as our first language? If you were to travel to the British Isles, what would you like to do while there, foods you would like to try, and sites you would like to see? Again, you may use sub-headings as explained above.

Include photos if you would like. Photos DO NOT count toward the page requirement for content. For instance, if your paper is 5 pages with photos, you may only have three pages of content to grade. If your paper is 3 pages with photos that take up space, you may not have met the requirements for the assignment and will lose valuable points.
Remember that this paper is 3-5 pages for content (body of the paper). This does not include the Cover Page nor the Reference Page or photos (last page). The Cover and Reference pages are not numbered. -
The Dark Side of Love: A Close Reading of “Porphyria’s Lover”
in this essay, you will close read “Porphyria’s Lover,” poem.
You must look up at least four specific words in the Oxford English Dictionary (located in the QC Library Databases) to help broaden the
possible interpretations of the poem. Also, use some of the literary
terms we have learned (such as alliteration, repetition, assonance,
enjambment, symbolism, connotation, and tone) to analyze the text and figure out its possible meanings.
Also, all ideas and observations in this paper should be your own. Do not use articles analyzing
the poem that you’ve found on the internet or on Chat GPT.
That is plagiarism.
No outside research is allowed. It’s not important that you talk about
where the poet was born, where they lived, their family life, etc
3 full pages until the end and then page 4 can be resources. -

“The Role of Women and Race in Shakespeare’s Othello: A Critical Analysis”
Write a thesis-driven research paper about Shakespeare’s Othello of at least 800 words in which you respond to one of the prompts following this paragraph.
You will need to cite at least three critical sources, all of which must be from either Gale literary sourses or JSTOR databases. Use sources only from these two databases!
Note that you will need a Works Cited entry for Othello as well; thus you will have at least four Works Cited entries.
This paper is thesis-driven, which means you need to take a stand. Although you will employ research in your discussion, you will also need to make a claim which you support throughout the body of your research paper.
Prompts
Desdemona’s innocent conception of the relations between men and women is contrasted by Emilia’s more realistic or worldly view. Research the roles of women and the societal views of them in Elizabethan England and relate your research to the women in Othello.
Race plays a large role in Othello. It has been claimed that Othello ultimately fulfills an Elizabethan conception of Moors as a barbarous race, prone to jealousy and murder. Is this a fair assessment? Research Elizabethan views of the Moors and discuss whether Shakespeare, despite creating a noble character in Othello, does indeed play to stereotypical Elizabethan views.
Iago claims he hates the Moor because the lieutenancy he desired was given to Cassio and because it is rumored Othello has slept with his wife. These claims have not convinced everyone; Samuel Taylor Coleridge famously claimed that Iago’s soliloquy in 1.3 is the “motive-hunting of a motiveless malignity.” Research what Coleridge meant by this annotation in his copy of Shakespeare (he doesn’t use the word “motive” quite the way we do) and research how his claim has been received by other critics. Where do you stand? Does Iago endeavor to undo the Moor because of his stated reasons? How do you account for Iago’s apparent delight in plotting against Othello?
In-Text Citations of Verse Plays
See Verse Plays in the MLA section of The Little Seagull Handbook. In the current edition, it’s on page 156. However, below is what you need to know:
Give act, scene, and line numbers, separated by periods:
For example, Iago says, “Thus do I ever make my fool my purse” (1.3.364).
Othello is written in verse, for the most part. If your quote is more than one line, use a forward slash (/) to indicate a line break:
As the scene closes, Iago has a villainous idea: “I have’t! It is engendered. Hell and night / Must bring this monstrous birth to the world’s light” (1.3.384-385).
Note that each line starts with a capital letter.
Works Cited
Have your Works Cited on a separate page at the end of your essay.
You can see an example of a Works Cited page near the end of the MLA handout on Brightspace under Class Handouts.
Note that you need to alphabetize and reverse indent your entries.
The two required databases will provide you with a correct Works Cited entry. See the video.
Use the “Anthology” example on the Works Cited table near the end of the MLA handout for a model of how to create a WC entry for Shakespeare’s play. -
