Writing Assignment: Research Essay
The research paper should include close readings/analysis of your chosen primary course text and outside research. You will combine your own close readings with outside research of primary or secondary texts related to my chosen text. 
First of all, the research essay is about the memoir “The Man Who Could Move Clouds” by Ingrid Rojas Contreras
The prompt for the research essay is: Analyze how Rojas Contreras discusses the differences between “Western” views on mental and physical health vs. how mental and physical health are seen from the perspectives of curanderas.
Please use MLA format and 12 Times New Roman font, double-spaced.
I will udapte all the PDF with all the details, information about what the research essay will be, the specific sources, the outline draft that will need to use to do in that order the research essay.
Note: Please don’t use another sources that are not from y pdf, not plagiariasm, and read very carefully every PDF , follow al the instructions. If you have any questions, please let me know. 

Write a 2500-word excerpt + book proposal of the biography
on the life of the Amir of Kuwait Sabah al-ahmad al-Sabah, but I talked about
my life as well where I interweaved my own story in the theme resilience to get
the bachelor degree and how I admire his resilience in staying in his
positions.
·       Book proposal is not included in the word count
In my first assessment (I have attached), my professor told
me to interweave my story with the sheikh. I have added 3 themes, 1. Resilience
and Determination. (Geo-politics determination in evolving) 2. Impactful
moments: vision and constructive abilities and humanitarian actions (Mention Masjid
al-imam alsadiq incident 2015 and Sabah Al-Sabah role). I will attach a Word file of a story
from a close friend of mine’s perspective on this incident in 2015,
narrate it creatively.
I want you to write: the prologue, chapter 1: Resilience and
determination, and chapter 2: Impactful Moments: Constructive abilities and humanitarian
actions. 
I will attach a Word file of information to add as well in book proposal. 
I will also attach a Word file of an example of a biography with a book proposal that follows the same format.
about the book proposal, it is more of a business case, not
an essay. In the assessment sheet the book proposal should be a creative
non-fiction proposal and should include: 1. Synopsis and outline, 2. Rationale,
3. Context and genre, 4. Market/Readership, 5. Illustrations, 6. Legal/ethical
considerations, 7. Structure (In the assessment sheet it states that they need
a “representative selection” of what the book would be like, if I was
commissioned to write it.), 8. A note on the creative sample.
.  My professor also has
added notes for me to focus on I will write them as well for you to help focus on
them.
Professor notes on my past assessment:
1.     
give yourself due credit
for your linguistic skills here. You could situate yourself as an “insider
researcher” in that you have access to the source
culture and language.
2.     
Wow! Your own story would
be fascinating to interweave through the biography.
3.     
What was he like as a
person? This could make his political achievements more impactful/memorable.
4.     
This is a highly
articulate, thoughtful and well researched account of your biographical
project. You make a strong case for your subject’s importance and relevance –
already, I want to know more about him – but we don’t get much sense of how you
envisage the creative text.  Expression: Very
engaging. Your commitment to your subject shines through. Occasionally we need
a point to be unpacked in more detail, particularly where it comes to
considering the implications for HOW you will write the biography. But this is
an engaging reflective voice.
5.     
Technical skills: Clear and
strategic research goals are deployed, resulting in a cogent survey of the
existing resources in both English and Arabic – well done for that. What’s
needed now is a sense of the kind of biography you intend to write. Your own
stake in the process, your own conversations with family members, and the
potential of your subject to inspire young people may be productive strands to
bring into the mix. Remember that we want to know him as a man, not just a list
of political achievements. Writerly reading and research. Good critical
research on the context, cultures and key texts informing your project. You
will need to do more practical, creative research to evolve your narrative
voice for assessment 2, and you might have paid some attention to that here.
For the book proposal, you will need to be able to identify what gap you are
filling, and what you are adding that isn’t already out there. I think that
your evolving relationship with your subject and your family’s perspectives,
and your growing sense of his inspiring humanitarian acts, would be a good
focus. This is unique to you. Could you find out or intuit more about your
subject as a human being? Style Commendably clear and engaging. Writing Skills:
Generally effective, with good control and clarity. Greater specificity about
HOW you intend to create your narrative voice will help support the reflective
elements. Reflection: This is a strong account of what promises to be a fascinating
project. The emphasis is on contextual and critical research. Think now about
expanding your focus to include creative research as you evolve your narrative
voice. Are there any comparable political biographies from which you can.
This assessment requires professional presentation and takes the
form of a book proposal with sample chapter from your biography in progress –
just what you’d need to send to a publisher or agent.

The following text is a reminder: we will be conducting a comparative study related to postcolonialism.

Overview
In the Week 3, you evaluated two behavior analytic theories that have led to the development of basic principles. In this assignment, you will be tasked with researching the applied literature regarding the interventions that are based on those principles and theories to change a behavior. This behavior, specifically, must be a behavior to increase (e.g., consuming vegetables, increasing exercise) and cannot be a challenging behavior (e.g., aggression, self-injury, elopement). Instead of writing a formal paper, you are going to create an eye catching and creative pamphlet (that you might place in the lobby of an office) that outlines the current research, the ethics of common intervention strategies, and how a clinician will compassionately implement them in practice.
Instructions
Choose a behavior to increase and research the current applied literature that uses interventions based on the basic theories and principles that you discussed during your Week 3 assignment. If you are unsure if your behavior is appropriate to use, please reach out to the instructor for additional assistance. Using Canva (Canva.com), create a free account and use a brochure template of your choosing to create your assignment. There are multiple free templates to use. You can also create your own using other software options if you would prefer. The brochure should discuss a behavior to increase, a way it can be operationally defined, and the current literature that uses intervention strategies based on the theories you discussed in your Week 3 assignment. Make sure to include the following components:
Include an engaging title that will capture the interest of your reader.
Provide a brief overview of the field of Applied Behavior Analysis and how it relates to radical behaviorism. Include the seven dimensions as outlined by Baer et al. (1968).
Discuss the importance of data collection, dimensional measurement, and the use of basic principles to create technologies to change behavior.
Identify the socially relevant behavior of interest and define it using a topographical or functional definition. Include a proposed measurement system that describes the relevant dimension(s) of measurement.
Provide a succinct discussion of the current applied literature that uses technologies informed by the theories you discussed in Week 3. These articles should be, at a maximum, no older than seven years.
Discuss any gaps you found in the literature and include areas for future research as discussed by the researchers in the literature you reviewed.
Discuss the ethical considerations of the intervention strategies, making reference to the Belmont Report and the BACB ethical code of conduct.
Complete your brochure with a compassion mission statement outlining how you, as a clinician, will be using these strategies to promote ethical and compassionate service delivery. Make sure to cite the Capella Compassion Code.
Note: Design the brochure with visually appealing elements: images, icons, infographics, etc. Remember this is not a paper, so your sentences need to be complete and professional, but concise. The language you choose needs to be technical and valid, but also approachable and client friendly. This is an opportunity to practice how to balance your professional writing. Do not hesitate to reach out to the instructor or the assistant instructor(s) for additional support.
