  • “Exploring the Unknown: A Personal Journey Through Research and Reflection”

    We’ve read essays featuring everything from small, personal journeys to profiles of groups in historic moments. Some of these essays feature subjects who were both familiar and strangers. For your final, essay, you’ll get to choose your own topic that draws you into an investigation. It may be a personal narrative like Sedaris or Seshadri, who have personal experiences that draw them toward larger questions. You may want to recount a new experience like Wallace or Matter, who write to make sense of the quirky, poignant, and occasionally hilarious things they encounter. Or, you may want to take this opportunity to investigate something outside of your own experience like Hersey and Orfi, who write essays that build connections to subjects who are strangers or misunderstood. Whatever you choose, your topic should prompt you to do a little research. 
    Write an 8-10 page (double-spaced; MLA, APA, or Chicago style) creative nonfiction essay in which you:
    Pose a question about your subject. You may want to write about something personal, or you could choose an event, place, person, process, or group that interests you.
    Present your findings about your question using an appropriate essay structure and genre
    Demonstrate an awareness of audience through effective use of language and style
    P.S. If you’re feeling stuck about how to incorporate research into your essay, have a look back at our discussion posts and lecture materials for some ideas.

    Feedback for previous assignments that might be useful for you.
    Good effort. You include considerable research from your annotated bibliography in addition to references to your nonfiction book. Since this is a pitch, rather than diving right into the research regarding the topic, consider how you could have started with a relevant hook and addressed the advisory council. Make sure to explicitly state the problem you are exploring, so you can provide a comprehensive overview of both the problem and solution you are proposing. Your conclusion was much more professional and impactful, nicely done! While you did use a number of images, your slides were quite text heavy. Consider how you could haveincorporated additional stats/graphics to support your ideas. Your voice is clear and easy to follow throughout the presentation. Your pacing and volume are effective. How could you use body language/gestures to enhance your pitch? Another way to improve is to add more energy and passion into your voice. Modulate or change the way you sound based on the kind of information that you are sharing. Your voice is a powerful tool to draw your audience into your speech and make them want to listen to you. You may want to review the rubric for a breakdown of your marks:
    K: 9.2/10
    T: 7.8/10
    C: 7.2/10
    A: 7.4/10
    Use the feedback I also gave you in the previous assignment. Not sure but I’ll give you previous units, it might help you since this assignment is meant to showcase learning. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o2EsrY7HjkhLxo…

  • Title: Defining and Addressing the Social Problem of Homelessness

    For this assignment and the remainder of the semester, you are going to focus on one social problem. We are going to define it in this module and work toward creating change to improve the lives of those affected in future modules. To get started, you should watch the following project overview video. Then, answer the questions posed below.
    What is the social problem that you would like to address?
    Define the problem in one paragraph.
    Why did you choose to focus on this problem?
    Answer in one paragraph; this section can be in first person.
    Who is affected by this problem?
    Describe what groups of people are affected, how they are affected, and how much they are affected. Focus specifically on vulnerable or marginalized populations.
    In this assignment, it can be very tempting to jump ahead to solving the problem. We will get there, I promise! But for now, focus on defining the problem, not solving it. Otherwise, we can’t know if we’ve solved it, because we won’t know what we are trying to solve.
    Requirements
    Upload your completed assignment as a Word document or PDF by the posted due date.
    Plagiarism detection will be used.
    Your assignment should be written in APA format as a complete paper rather than in a Q&A format. In addition, only Part B can be in first person.
    All facts in the paper and ideas that are not your own should be cited in APA style, using in-text citations for at least two sources. You can use course readings as these sources.
    Other than the paragraph about why you have chosen the problem, everything else should be in third person.
    The length of your assignment should be two pages of text, plus an APA style title page and a reference list. It does not require an abstract.

  • Title: Exploring the BIOS User Interface and Configuring Basic Settings

    Instructions:
    Turn off your computer. Then turn on your computer, and quickly press a special key (computer manufacturer and model specific) to stop at the BIOS user interface.
    For Windows 10 computers, press the F12 key. For earlier Windows computers it could be the F8 key.
    For Mac computers, press and hold CMD, OPT, “O” and “F” (OF stands for ‘open firmware’). The CMD key has an apple on it and the OPT key is in the same position as the ALT key on a PC keyboard. Enter commands when the prompt “0 >” loads on the screen.
    Many newer machines use the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) which has replaced the BIOS interface. It still performs essentially the same functions.
    Exercises:
    Submit your responses to Q2 through Q5 as an MS Word document or as a PDF file. The photos taken for Q1 can be embedded in that document, or they can be submitted as individual files.
    Q1: Use your phone to take several photos of the various screens. You should include all visible menu options. The purpose is to help you understand what you can do using the BIOS user interface.
    Q2: If you want to boot from a CD instead of a hard disk or an SSD, how would you change your BIOS configuration?
    Q3: If you want to disable the CD and the USB drives, how would you change your BIOS configuration?
    Q4: If you want to prevent anyone from changing your BIOS settings and setting a password, what BIOS configuration would you change?
    Q5: How would you boot into Safe Mode? If your system does not allow this, what would be the reason?
