Assignment 1: Essay

Choose one (1) of the three (3) reading selections from the list of topic choices below. The focus is on brief but important primary source material written by major authors. Read the selections as identified with each topic below. Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (250 words minimum) which analyzes the “surprise ending” of the reading selection.

Topic Choices

• Reading selection from Descartes’ Discourse on the Method (Part IV). Descartes begins with a proof of one basic conclusion and ends with a proof of something much grander. Remember to focus on the surprise and point of realization, not the details of the philosophical argument. Read Part IV of the Discourse on the Method located at http://www.earlymoderntexts.com/assets/pdfs/descar… (then scroll down to Part 4, pp. 14-18). This is only four or five (4 or 5) pages of the larger work.
• Reading selection of Swift’s A Modest Proposal. It is essential to recognize the genre of this work, as discussed in our class text, which you should consult and cite. Swift promotes a radical solution, but subtle options are mentioned. You are looking for surprise and a point of realization. Read and focus on A Modest Proposal located at http://www.victorianweb.org/previctorian/swift/mod….
• Two (2) reading selections from Voltaire’s Candide. Consider how these readings start and end in terms of the action and the beliefs. You are looking for surprise and a point of realization. These selections can be found on pp. 840-841 in the textbook. In addition, consult the class text at pp. 824-825.

For the reading selection you choose:

• Clearly state in your own words the “surprise ending” in the reading you selected. Clearly identify the point in the reading when you realized that there were elements in the reading that surprised you. Not all of the surprises come at the end.
• Evaluate how successful the author was in convincing you to accept the validity of the “surprise ending” that was different from what you expected. Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

• Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA Style format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. (Note: Students can find APA style materials located in the Additional Resources section of their Student Center within their course shell for reference)
• Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
• Use the source(s) identified above for the topic you choose, focusing on the main primary source of that author. You may use additional sources also if they are of good academic quality for college papers (Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify). Use proper APA style in-text citing and also a matching APA style References list at the end.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Explain how key social, cultural, and artistic contributions contribute to historical changes.
• Explain the importance of situating a society’s cultural and artistic expressions within a historical context.
• Examine the influences of intellectual, religious, political, and socio-economic forces on social, cultural, and artistic expressions.

Utilizing the information you compiled for your literature review
paper, and the feedback you received from your instructor about the
literature review, prepare a 10-15 minute Power Point presentation on
your topic, summarizing the key points and conclusions. Be sure to
direct this presentation to an audience in the community. For example,
if your paper pertained to a topic in developmental psychology, direct
your presentation toward parents, or a parenting center. If your topic
pertained to substance abuse, direct it toward a community service
agency which may use this information for educating teens or parents
about preventing drug use, or current clients about treatments and
facilities available. Please state in your presentation the specific
audience toward whom your presentation is aimed. Include a reference
page in APA format, as well as speaker notes and an audio file with
your presentation.

Your slides should provide answers to the following questions:

• What was your topic?
• What question did you hope to answer by
  completing this literature review paper? Explain the practical
  implications of the conclusions of the literature review and the
  audience to which they are directed.
• Given the results of your literature review,
  what is/are the prevailing argument(s)? In other words, which of
  those is supported by the existing evidence? Be sure to include
  full coverage of the arguments, including strengths and weaknesses
  of each of them, supported by your findings from reviewing the
  relevant articles.
• Did the researchers consider multicultural
  factors in their studies? If not, what factors may be involved?
  What multicultural factors should future studies include?
• What ethical issues are related to your topic and/or discussed in the studies you reviewed?
• How do the conclusions of your literature
  review relate to the various specialization areas in psychology?
  Tie them to as many as apply from the following areas: biological,
  cognitive, developmental, social, personality theory,
  psychopathology, and applied psychology.
• How can the conclusions of your literature
  review inform the population towards whom your presentation is
  directed? How can they apply this information to their daily
  lives? What advice or ‘take home message’ can you provide to your
  audience based on the research you reviewed?
• What research question could you ask in order to further develop this area of study?
• Why is your research question important and relevant to the current work being done on your topic?

Your presentation should also follow these guidelines:

• It should be approximately 10-15 minutes in length.
• It should be clear, concise, and
  professional. Writing should be free of spelling and grammatical
  errors; it should conform to current APA style (including any
  in-text citations).
• It should include graphs, tables, figures, or images illustrating your ideas.
• There should be a final slide listing references in current APA style.
• The bulk of the text should be placed in the
  Notes pages of each slide. Keep the amount of text on the slide,
  itself, to a minimum.
• You should record an audio file of your oral
  presentation. You should also type the text of the speech you
  would give while showing these slides to an audience should be
  typed into the Notes area. If you are unable to use the audio
  feature, the Notes text will suffice.
• You can refer to the Power Point tips document provided in the Doc Sharing section of the course.

The second step of my project is look into a larger cultural behavior in the artifact and then do some research about it and write the IRI, which is about associating it with the artifact. My artifact is a Coca-Cola advertisement called “Brotherly Love”, youtube.com/watch?v=xq8trrEecGg , I did some analysis on it and you can find it in the attachment. The larger cultural behavior in my artifact is Masculinity, Bullying and connecting the toughness with the young boys in the Ad. So you will need to do some research about these behaviors and write about it by associating it with the Artifact.
