  • “Recreating the Past: Bringing Art to Life with Tableau Vivant”

    Tableau Vivant
    Tableau Vivant image project is worth 10 points. Students can select any image discussed as part of our lectures and recreate the painting/sculpture/drawing/tapestry/etc. as a photograph with live people and objects. This project asks students to reimagine the static image as a “living” moment.
    Using a camera, take your photograph and try – as best as possible – to match the formal qualities of your selected image.
    As a reminder: students can use any object/image discussed during our class lectures. Refer back to your Loom lecture videos and notes for ideas. You can also email Dr. Hunt to verify your image before working on the project. 
    Students cannot use Photoshop or image editing software to “improve” or alter the photograph; rather, the objective is to try and simulate the light, shadow, color, and texture in real life!

  • “Exploring the Geographical Imagination in Even the Rain (2010): A Critical Analysis of Representations and Motivations in the Film”

    Movie title: Even the Rain (2010). Film is in Spanish but the paper, of course, needs to be in English.
    6-7 double spaced pages, APA format, 5-6 cited sources.
    1) what exactly happens in your film, in brief 2) what the concept of the geographical imagination/imaginative geography is, in your OWN words, 3) and how those geographical representations are constructed in the film and what the film’s underlying motivations are in depicting and representing events/peoples/places that are presented
    in order:
    1) Plot summary of film. Somewhat brief (in comparison to the latter aspects)
    2) What is the concept of the geographical imagination? Especially in reference to Edward Said′s work.
    3) Geographical imaginaries in the film. Cultural, social, economic, political references seen in the film.
    4) Deconstruction of the geographical imagination. Is the film accurate in these depictions? Does the film make these representations consciously or subconsciously?
    Attached is the prompt given by instructor. Note that this is an intro-level college course. I′d consider my writing fairly professional.

  • “Engaging in Meaningful Discussion: Reflecting on Required Supplemental Readings for Business Management”

    Before starting the discussion you must read the Required Supplemental Reading Material posted in Blackboard Lectures: Go to Blackboard “Lectures” and you will see a post “Weeks 1- 6 Required Supplemental Readings.” Open this post and you will find that there is a link for Week 2.b. You should read (Week 2.b) Then you write an initial “thread” regarding this paper.
    The Discussion Board asks you to discuss (talk about) the reading material with your fellow students. You can talk about what you learned from the articles; what you liked; what you did not like; what the authors missed in their article; how the articles relate to your experience and so on. When I read your discussions I want to see evidence that you have actually read the material and that you truly understand what you read and how it applied to the real world business environment.
    Start the conversation early so others can participate– posting your contribution at 11PM on Sunday Night is not participating in the conversation.
    There should be two threads per person at the forum (your initial and one other thread for your classmate) It is suggested that you distribute your postings throughout the week, at the beginning of the week and then comeback middle of the week and complete your other posting. The next students are expected to read what others have already written and to add to the conversation once there is activity at the forum by posting the initial, and subsequent the one other classmate post.. . Just saying ” I agree with Maria” does not add to the conversation. Opening a new thread is like talking to yourself in an empty room.
    You must submit at least one other posting to your classmate in addition to your original “thread”.
    Start the conversation early so others can participate– posting your contribution at 11PM on Sunday Night is not participating in the conversation.
    Rubrics

  • The Role of Microorganisms in Bioremediation: A Review of Current Research and Applications

    Approximate length should be at least 5 pages, double-spaced.
     Use standard margins (1” on left/right, 1” on top/bottom). Use 12-point font (or
    smaller) – Times New Roman is suggested. Any fonts used that take up
    significantly more space than Times New Roman will be noticed – so be careful.
     References that are from primary journal articles (also known as peer-reviewed
    articles) are desirable, but not required.
     In addition, it is wise to find at least 1 review article on your subject, although this
    is not required. Review articles are usually written by a prominent scientist in a
    particular area of study, and provide a good overview of the subject.
     Helpful sites in searching for primary journal articles and review articles (in
    addition to Science Direct):
    www.pubmed.org – provides abstracts for most biological and medical
    journals; some full text articles are available
    www.journals.asm.org – provides abstracts for articles in the 12 journals
    published by the American Society of Microbiology; articles older
    than 6 months are available with full text
     Reference list should include, for each article from a journal:
    authors’ last names and first initials
    year of publication
    title of article
    journal/publication title(usually abbreviated)/volume/page numbers
     Each reference should be cited within the text; you can either cite the reference in
    the text using the first author’s name followed by year of publication OR
    you can use numbers in parentheses throughout your text, with the number
    corresponding to the appropriate article in your reference list.
     References not cited in the text should not be included in your reference list.
     Web site references are acceptable to include, but it is suggested that your
    reference list should not be solely made-up of just these types of references,
    especially if they appear to be non-scientific sources.
     Figures/Tables can also be included in the paper, but these do not contribute to the
    appropriate minimum length.
     Use good grammar – too many typos can hurt your grade.
     You should let me know what your topic is – I may be able to provide useful
    information and hints on how to search.
     Browse through the textbook – especially at topics we are not scheduled to cover
    in the course, or topics we do not have time to cover in as much detail as the
    textbook provides (specific diseases, ecological relationships etc.); this may
    provide a convenient way to choose a topic.
