we look into the intriguing question as to whether we humans really have free will – that is, are we really free to make any choice, to do whatever we will, in a way that is NOT predetermined? Or, was the story of our lives already decided at the beginning of time, and we only have the illusion that we are running the show

Discussion question:

Describe D’Holbach’s argument for why we do not have free will, even though it might appear to us that we do. Is he right? (Please use the attached documents to do this discussions and your knowledge. no plagiarism please!)

Select most commonly used non-parametric tests and develop a PowerPoint presentation or an Internet-based presentation tool such as Prezi or SlideRocket.

2. Analyze how the results from the data input would differ between the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test and the Kruskal-Wallis Test.
3. Evaluate how you would use the results from the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test and the Kruskal-Wallis Test.

Follow APA formatInclude a title slide and a reference slide beyond the 8-12 content slides. Use outside academic sources other than the textbook, course materials, or other information provided as part of the course materials.

Assignment:

Choose one short story and one play that you believe share a similar theme, and write an essay that explains how both works deal with this theme.

Basic requirements:

• Both the play and the story must be found in our textbook, although they do not have to be ones we’ve read for class.
• The paper must use quotations from the primary sources (this is discussed below)
• The paper should contain a minimum of four full pages. That’s a minimum; to engage fully with your topic in a way that would earn an A or a B, you will need to go beyond the minimum.
• The paper should follow the formatting guidelines listed below.
• The paper must be submitted to Submit Assignment by 11 p.m. Sunday of Unit Four

A note about how to use the term “theme”:

It’s important to remember that while a theme can be considered a subject of a work, it’s not a subject in a literal sense. Bishop’s poem “The Fish” and Melville’s Moby Dick may both be about aquatic creatures, but “aquatic creatures” is not a theme—it’s a literal subject, not a conceptual one.

What you’re looking for are two works that seem to treat the same idea, concept, or aspect of life. For example, a student might analyze “Story of an Hour” and “Trifles” by showing how both works present the theme of female oppression (now that we’ve used it as an example, please avoid using this as the topic of your paper). In doing this, however, the student wouldn’t just point out that both works address that issue; he/she would show specifically and thoroughly some things that these works have in common, and also some things that they do differently, in regard to how they present the theme. The student might go on to pose arguments or theories about why these authors approach the theme in different ways—what their differences in approach might have to do with their historical context, the limitations of their genre, their personal lives, et cetera.

A note about sources and citation:

For this essay, you will be expected to quote sufficiently from the primary sources, i.e. the works of literature you’ve chosen to discuss (in our example, the primary sources would be “Story of an Hour” and “Trifles). You will also be expected to follow the MLA guidelines on acceptable ways of quoting and citing sources. If you don’t know what this means, you MUST go to whatever resources are available to you, include the links on the “Further Resources” page of our course, to learn about citation. Failure to understand the mechanisms of citation can lead to plagiarism, which can lead to a zero for the course.

Formatting Guidelines

• Double-space the text of your paper, use 12 point Times New Roman or 11 point Calibri
• Leave only one space after periods or other punctuation marks.
• Use standard 1-inch margins.
• Indent the first line of paragraphs one tab space.
• Put page numbers at the top right of each page except for the first one.
• Use italics throughout your essay for the titles of longer works like plays, novels, and epic poems. The titles of short works like lyric poems and short stories should be surrounded by quotation marks.
• In the upper left-hand corner of the first page, provide a proper heading by listing your name, then your instructor’s name, then the course number, then the date (in other words, the heading should contain four separate lines).
• Center the title over the first paragraph of your essay. Do not underline or italicize or boldface your title.

Final note:

As you write your paper, please refer frequently to the sections in your book that deal with critical essay writing. You also will want to make use of the writing resources mentioned elsewhere in the course shell, and you will want to familiarize yourself with the grading rubric.

The topic of this essay is space exploration. In this essay you will write about various past, present, and/or future planned missions into outer space.

Here is what you will need to do. There are four categories of space missions listed below. For each category you will need to research two types of space missions and write a paragraph about each space mission. There are four categories x two space missions from each category = 8 space missions total (8 paragraphs).

Listed below are the four categories of space missions and two examples of missions (there are many, many more space missions than the two examples listed for each). Also note that countries other than the United States and Russia have sent missions into space.

1. Manned Space Missions (Apollo 11, Space Shuttle STS-112)

2. Unmanned Planetary Landers (Venera, Phoenix)

3. Unmanned Planetary/Lunar Orbiters (Examples: Juno, Cassini)

4. Unmanned Planetary Fly-by Probes (Examples: New Horizons, Voyager 1 & 2)

Here is what you will need to do for each of your eight space missions. For each mission write a lengthy paragraph describing the mission. You will need to include:

a. When the mission was launched and how long the mission lasted (1 point)

b. What nation and space agency was responsible for the mission. (1 point)

c. Where the space mission went to. (1 point)

d. What the purpose of the space mission was and any discoveries that were made. You need to have an in-depth discussion of what the purpose, goals, and major discoveries and accomplishments of the mission were (5 points)

e. Make sure that the paragraph is well organized with a topic sentence and body sentences, clearly written, and free from any grammar or spelling errors (2 points)

In your essay make sure you have an introductory paragraph and make sure to cite any and all sources you use from the Internet. Wikipedia will not be counted as a source.
