When I first learned that the second unit would be about writing in different genres I was totally confused. What did this mean? Would I be doing different writings of mystery, romance or science fiction? That was my only small narrow view of what a genre is. I have now come to learn that a genre is not only simply whether something is fiction or nonfiction but a genre is different types of writing from a recipe to a resume. I have come to learn that there are so many different types of genres all unique in their own respect and all written from a different perspective. For each assignment that we did my composing process was a little different. The process of composing the genre bending assignment began with my idea of a nutrition label. At first I decided that I wanted to do a parody on nutrition labels to comment on how unreliable and misleading some of them could be. Later that night I was watching the Presidential Debate and thought that it would be funnier to make a Donald Trump nutrition label. I used a templet of a real nutrition label and added in different qualities of Donald Trump. My composing process for the essay on photography differed greatly. I began by brainstorming my different connections to photography that related to something Sontag commented on. After I was finished I was inspired to write about …show more content…
There was so much room for creativity and there were so many different genres to choose from. I could be funny and entertain my potential audience. I was also creative writing about photography because it was about my personal experience and I got to use my own voice while writing. For the photo exhibition, even though it was difficult I feel as though I still got to be creative in describing and interpreting the pictures. The assignment that I felt lacked the most creativity was the book abstract because I was just writing statements of what the aerial photography book was
Science peer review is important with the role that it plays in the experiment. It helps confirm the research, establish a method to be evaluated, and increase different kinds of possibilities within research groups. There are three types of peer review such as single blind, double blind and open review. Single blind is where only the participate doesn’t know if they are in the controlled group or treatment. Double blind is when both the participate and the experimenter are kept in the dark. An open blind is where both sides
As an Arab immigrant who was raised in the United States since he was seven years old, who lived in Michigan seeing Arabs everyday and never felt like he was in a foreign country; and moving to NYC in 2015, changed the whole style of my life. NYC the tremendous city that I couldn’t find the people that I knew and that I understood nor those that understands me because of our massive cultural differences, and believes. The biggest problem is when I started school in NYC. The school system was different because in NYC they had regents, also their credit requirements were different, for that I was behind in credits and didn’t know what was the regents. Also, I came to school almost at the end of the First marking period of the second semester of freshman year.
I made one other staff application before on a server called PowerCraft. I was fortunate enough (and lucky enough) to actually come through. The staff application format over at PowerCraft's website was similar to the format on this
The data have information from two courses taught during the 2014/15 academic years with a combined enrollment of 76 students. These courses have a similar structure in that they met on Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 10 weeks and they both require students to complete online quizzes prior to each class. In addition, the final grade of both courses is composed of operating grades, midterms, and final exams. That is, there will be more than one factor to affect the final grade in these courses. In order to protect students, all students are shown in the database as ID number instead of their real names.
I staffed the situation with Nikki and was referred to Minimum Standards, which states the following:
We are creating a car seat addition that will change the car seat industry. It will protect the children from creating a mess on the car seat buckles and themselves. It will help decrease the chances of getting a button malfunction due to liquids or materials getting within the car seat buckles. Our goals are just to create this product and enhance the car seats, which will give the parents a satisfaction knowing that the car seats are not being destroyed by the substances, and materials that the child spills. We also want to make this product sold around the U.S but hope to at least sell the product globally. I believe that our three stakeholders will be reasonable. The stakeholders will be the owners, the suppliers and the employees. Our
After completing this assignment, I feel as though the way I think and my outlook on certain things has changed in small, yet significant ways. For example, one of the most interesting myths, myth 28 (There’s Safety in Numbers), has changed the way I will react in situations of emergency. Having the awareness of the tendency to ignore someone in need when in a crowd will help me to overcome that tendency and actually help. I also found myths 15 (IQ Tests Are Biased against Certain Groups of People) and 20 (Researchers Have Demonstrated That Dreams Possess Symbolic Meaning) very interesting. I held some belief that dreams meant something more than just the random occurrences we see, so knowing they hold no insight into our minds and psyches makes me feel less distrait. As for myth 15, I simply found it amazing that so many people would rather blame the IQ tests for the inconsistencies in scores, rather than look deeper and take responsibility for the social disadvantages and prejudices against groups.
I met my best friend Briana Williams when I was eight years old, in the second grade at Flat Rock Elementary School. Ms. Wyatt our second grade teacher would always line us up next to each other because we were both about the same height. Before you knew it we began forming a friendship.
When I first started working on my concentration, I planned on exploring the relationship between people and technology. As the exam date was steadily approaching, I only had a couple of pieces completed, so time was of the essence. However, I was notified by my teacher that I wasn’t allowed to use two of the pieces I created because the school district deemed them ‘not appropriate for a high school level portfolio’ and she could get into trouble, or even fired, if I included them in my portfolio. As a student, I was conflicted because I loved the art that I created, but I also love my teacher and I would never want her to get into trouble because my actions. So, I decided to change my concentration with a week left before the exam date. Each
It was just a typical night on April 20th, 2015, that I was on my computer talking with my friend through Skype who gave me the idea to make an account on Skout because I was stil trying to get over the break up with Chris. And that's how it all started.... I was just scrolling down then I noticed a certain picture of someone that caught my attention. And it was YOU. I knew from the moment I saw your picture on Skout I know you were gonna be someone special in my life. I didn't know wether or not to message you first or wait and see if you were to ever message me first. But my friend told me to take the courage to send you a simple message to see if you would even message.The next day to my suprise to see that you had actually replied. You
1 score and 5 years ago I was asked to write a paper about today. Surprisingly I was spot on. Thanks to my family and all my teachers throughout my college years I am a successful Audio Engineer. I started off this journey 26 years ago in 2014 after being released from a prison program called Miami-Dade County Boot Camp. There I learned the discipline it takes to be successful at anything you want to do in your life.
I was unable to find anything that I would consider concrete in regards to the required capabilities of a new lap top that is required. As you see the program manager at Saint Martins signed the required sheet. I would like to see if it possible to receive an Apple product. The reason for this request is that many school districts are an either or district. This means that the teachers and administration use either Apple products or Microsoft products. Over the years I have come quite comfortable using Microsoft systems. I have little to no experience using Apple operating systems. I feel as if I will become a more rounded educator if I am capable of operating both systems.
I have chosen project three in which I had to review several books that had a character with an exceptionality as the main character. I asked the professor if I could have the high schoolers in my English language arts class do this as part of my lesson plans and she agreed. I have formatted it in such a way that each book will have some differentiation if several students reviewed the same book. Student 1 will be a 10th grade boy with a visual impairment, Student 2 will be a 11th grade girl with a visual impairment, Student 3 will be a 9th grade girl with a visual impairment and behavior disorder, lastly, Student 4 will be 10th grade girl with a visual impairment as well as a learning disability she uses voice to text on her iPad to respond
Identify two specific learning needs the student has as an English learner, based on the student description and the responses.
Gross domestic product, GDP, is the sum of consumption, investments, government purchases, and net exports. Consumption includes services, nondurable goods, and durable goods. According to the article, “No Let-up Seen In Rent Hikes This Year,” services would increase because there would be an increase in demand for real estate agents as more people look for housing. Because “many young adults are also putting off getting married and having kids,” nondurable goods would most likely remain at the same value as there would not be a dramatic increase in population and in demand for nondurable goods. Durable goods, such as furniture, would increase as more people move into new apartments that need to be furnished. In the category of investments,
