Discussion: The Renaissance Era

We begin with the Renaissance era. In this Discussion, identify some of the basic characteristics of Renaissance art and share your opinion on how Renaissance art differs from the artwork created during the historical periods that came before it.
This is not a research essay assignment, so write from your own point of view and in your own words. The following materials below are instrumental in our Module 1 Discussion. They are also provided in the Module 1 “Background” page:

Project data: Students use Excel to analyze the data. It involves all major airline domestic flights departing from Oregon airports in 2016.

Overview
Time estimate: Approximately 6 hours.
Project data: Students use Excel to analyze the data. It involves all major airline domestic flights departing from Oregon airports in 2016.
Project Idea: We try to use all the statistical tools discussed in this class to analyze this dataset. The purpose of any statistics class is to better understand the world through data. Although we have many tools, all of them come back to one question: “How can we better understand our data?” In order to really understand these tools, we will repeatedly ask the question, “What patterns can we find in this Oregon flight data?”
Project Procedure: For each project, you will be asked to use a different tool or approach on the same data and prepare a report. By the end of the course, you will have used every tool we have to better understand this data.
XLSTAT (upgrade your XLSTAT-Free to a paid version for FREE): Please follow Step 5 at the bottom of this page Required Software, which has been updated on 6/29/2021.
Download the data linked below.
Use Excel or other software tool to analyze the data.
Answer the questions listed below.
Do not include the original dataset in your report. Your answers should be in complete sentences. Insert necessary tables or graphs to support your arguments and comments in the report. Do not attach a bunch of computer printouts.
TurnItIn is turned on. Be sure to submit your own report.

Questions
Please do NOT copy these questions into your report. Just number your answers.
(1) What is this data “all about”?
(2) How many rows and columns? What does each row represent? What can you tell about the data from the column headers?
(3) Is this data quantitative, qualitative, or both? Why?
(4) Randomly pick one column. Summarize in a clear and complete English sentence, and explain what this column tells us. Comment about the average and the spread (i.e., standard deviation) of the column. Be sure to include any necessary units.
Hint: In Excel, use =average() and =stdev(). If you have difficulties with using Excel, please watch “Excel Tips” video in Module 1’s required lecture videos.
(5) What is the average delay in departures (Column AF DepDelay, not Column AG DepDelayMinutes) from Oregon Airports? Be sure to include the unit of this quantity.
We have a pretty cool data set and can see all departures by major carriers in the given time frame. What if instead we just measured a few flights? Measure 3 different “random” sets of data. For ease, pick 3 random flights and calculate the average of your 3 flights.
Check the instructor’s video tutorial on how to randomly select rows using XLSTAT: How to create a random sample using XLSTAT?
To randomly select rows using Excel: How to create a random sample using Excel?
(6) What is the average departure delay of your 3 randomly selected flights?
Your answer to (6) probably wasn’t that close to the true average (although you might have gotten lucky). Let’s consider what would happen if you do the same thing but using an average of 30 flights. Now, pick 30 random flights.
(7) What is the average departure delay of these randomly selected 30 flights?
(8) Do you see evidence of the Central Limit Theorem at play? Was the average of a larger sample closer to the truth? Do you think all of your classmates will find the same thing? Why or why not?
Submission Details
After you use Excel and analyze the data, you will then create a report that responds to the 8 questions listed above (include the numbers and answer in complete sentences). Please include your numbered responses, but do not copy the questions into your document.
In your word document, you may insert any relevant charts or tables to support your argument. Then submit your responses as a file upload (DOC, DOCX, PDF) here in Canvas.
Grading Criteria
Total 20 points: 4 points each for questions (3) and (8), and 2 points each for the remaining, for answering the questions correctly, clearly, and succinctly. Partial points for partial answers.
One Extra Credit (5%) for any submission turned in 3 days before the due date.

Section Analysis Paper: The Romantic Period

IN THE FILES, THE ASSIGNMENT FORMAT IS THERE AND YOU’LL NEED TO DO IT ON THERE. THIS IS NOT AN ESSAY SO YOU DON’T NEED TO ADD ANYTHING PERTAINING TO AN ESSAY.

Title: Scherzo No. 2 in C minor
Composer: Clara Schumann
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7f9SoDuHjY

Explore relevant interview topics and generate a list of questions to use in your interviews. 20 pts. First set of interviews: Locate at least one person who has been arrested for DUI, even if not for homicide, while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.


Students, having seen the 60 Minutes video should thoroughly consider your position on the issue of homicidal DUI as murder. But for this project, you must first set aside your own individual opinion on this matter. This project involves interviewing people for whom this issue is much more than a textbook’s abstraction. So you need to focus on what you hear in the interviews without letting your personal opinions get in the way.
You will conduct four sets of interviews.
Explore relevant interview topics and generate a list of questions to use in your interviews. 20 pts.
First set of interviews: Locate at least one person who has been arrested for DUI, even if not for homicide, while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Find out what that person or those people think. Listen to their arguments, and then write them down and evaluate those arguments. Be objective and fair-minded in your evaluation, regardless of whether you agree or disagree with the person’s position. 10 pts.
Second set of interviews: Locate at least one person who is a former drinker but who no longer drinks. Perhaps you can find someone who will talk with you by contacting AA. Interview that person the same way. Get his or her views on the matter; write down the person’s arguments, and evaluate those arguments objectively and fair-mindedly. 10 pts.
Next, contact MADD or some other volunteer organization that is known for its stance on issues relating to drunk driving. Follow the same drill. Get that organization’s arguments down and evaluate them. 10 pts.
Finally, contact the office of your local prosecuting attorney, or member of the police or some other authority and, again, conduct your interview and evaluate the arguments you hear. 10 pts.
Having talked directly with people who are close to this issue, you must now assemble all the arguments that came forward in the various interviews. In light of these perspectives, take a stance individually on whether or not homicide by DUI should be prosecuted as murder. Write out your opinion and give the reasons. 20 pts.

Can One truly “get out”- a look at Afro-Pessimism

PROMPT:
In Ryan
Poll’s essay, “Can One Get Out? The Aesthetics of Afro-Pessimism”, he
writes: “To be Black, according to
Afro-Pessimism, is to be fundamentally, ontologically, marked as a slave
whether the year is 1617, 1717, 1817, or 1917 (71).”

How does
Jordan Peele’s film, Get Out illustrate these statements?

Give
examples from both essays as well as the film Get Out.

________________________________________________________________________________

TALKING POINTS YOU CAN USE: the metaphor about “the sunken place” that is in the essay and film, address Pro-Blackness in our “woke” society today and the main character in the film Chris, as well as using Afro-Pesssism for a talking point.

Use the paper and movie in conjuction to write a formal essay answering the prompt above and using some of the talking points I just stated.

I need Ryan
Polls’s essay (attached) “Can One Get Out”, read and analyzed along with
the film, connecting the essay and film. The prompt is above.

3-5 pages MLA
style, plus the citation page. Cite the film, cite the essay, and you can use
one or two more sources of your choice, provided they work. So a total of 3-5
citations.

I need the essay written
by someone who has seen or will immediately screen “Get Out”… If you don’t know
this film and won’t watch it, don’t write my paper.
