Homeland Security Under the Trump Administration

Active shootings have become common place these days which is a sad take on our society. Other countries simply do not experience them as frequently as we do and there are arguments that place the blame on everything from lack of gun control to mental health system issues to a host of other things. What are some suggestions you could offer to reduce the number of active shooter situations in our country and why do you think they would be successful? Why do you feel that our prior attempts have not been successful?

discussion post

Discuss the ways in which contemporary Muslims and Islamic scholars navigate the intersection of Islam with new, modern technologies and desires relating to the body, gender, and sexuality.

Consider some of the following questions in your response:

Both Clarke and Najmabadi describe Iranian religio-legal positions on modern medical practices concerning sexuality that, compared to American or other Western approaches to these questions, seem incredibly progressive. Is it right to consider these rulings progressive? How are these rulings situated within traditional Islamic jurisprudence? How do they relate to Shi’a methods of Islamic legal derivation, especially as they differ from those of Sunnis? How do modern Iranian Muslims interact with the political-religious establishment in navigating and making sense of their sexuality? What do the experiences of gay Muslims, as portrayed in A Jihad for Love, suggest about the relationship of Muslims to Islamic legal authorities?

Nuclear Energy Argumentative essay Draft

Write an argumentative essay on the same topic, or you have the choice of choosing a new topic, of Energy/Environmentalism that you have used for Essay 1 and Essay 2. Make a clear claim in your thesis statement supported by evidence. You must incorporate research from at least two secondary sources one of which is from a peer-reviewed journal and one of which is an approved website.
This is, in some ways, a culmination of the work you have done on the other two assignments. Having explored opposing positions on the topic in Essay 1 and analyzed (through visual rhetoric) some of the strategies used by a cartoonist in making persuasive arguments in Essay 2, you will now write to persuade an audience of your own informed position, using evidence from research to support your argument.
Purpose: An argument has the purpose of informing your audience about an interesting topic or issue and persuading them to accept your conclusions about the topic/issue. Like any research essay, the argument contains researched information about a well-defined issue. Your objective for the documented argument is to take a stance on a topic as well as describe it. Do not merely report your findings or describe the situation. Instead, you should develop an original thesis which argues for a particular position or attitude towards your topic. You should also demonstrate the ability to choose appropriate research sources and incorporate them into their analyses using MLA style documentation.
Audience: College-level readers. You can assume they have only general knowledge about your topic (such as what might be gleaned from TV news or popular newspapers/magazines).
Length: A minimum of 1,000 words in MLA format (double-spaced, one inch margins, 12 point Times New Roman font)
Structure: You should present a three-part thesis statement at the end of your introductory paragraph, three body paragraphs that support and develop your thesis, and a concluding paragraph.
Documentation: You need TWO peer-reviewed scholarly articles from either the Opposing Viewpoints in Context or Academic Search Complete databases. You must cite both articles you obtain using in-text parenthetical citations (when appropriate) and at the end of your essay in an MLA-formatted Works Cited page.

Tone: The tone of your essay should be tailored to both your audience and your purpose – in other words, maintain a level of formality appropriate for an academic essay. While your goal is to persuade your readers, keep in mind that an overly biased or condescending tone will lose at least some of your audience, no matter how they are initially inclined to your position. Also keep in mind the importance of demonstrating your ethos as an informed, researched writer—regardless of your audience, do not be too casual.
Important Criteria:
Your essay must be no less than 1,000 words.
This essay is argumentative, not expository. You should identify a problem or conflict within your topic of Energy/Environmentalism and make a debatable claim about what you think should be done.
You will need at least two peer-reviewed sources from the Opposing Viewpoints or Academic Search Complete
Your essay should be in MLA format, including a Works Cited page.
Your essay should have a title. “Essay 3” or “Assignment 3” or even “Argumentative Essay” are not titles. They are descriptions of the assignment. Be creative and think about what you want to communicate to your readers.
You must have a precise thesis that accurately identifies the problem or conflict in your topic, why it is important (why should your readers care about it?), and what you think should be done about it.

Transportation and Logistics Management

Problem to go off on is fuel decline
This analysis project requires you to tackle a problem within your field of study by first exploring it, its causes, and its impacts. Then, if you want, you can recommend one or more practical solutions to solve the problem.
After deciding on the problem you wish to tackle, begin building questions about it. Your goal for the analysis is to answer the questions through your sources. Finding multiple angles and perspectives is ideal so that you explore those possibilities in the final paper before settling on your recommendation. Be sure to identify what is at stake.
Here are questions to help guide your analysis:
What is the problem being addressed (explain, describe, and “prove” that it exists)?
Who is affected by this problem?
Why does this problem exist? (Identify the root causes.)
Why does the problem persist? (Identify the major factors that contribute to the problem’s ongoing presence.)
What is at stake if the problem is not solved?
If you decide to include a solution, use these questions to guide you:
Who can take action?
What should they do, exactly?
Why would this help?
What are the positive and negative aspects of your solution(s)?
PURPOSE: To analyze a problem and possibly provide a solution

Final Paper
Subtitle (Example: Keeping Schools Closed During a Pandemic)
This is where you will fully develop the ideas you have been building throughout the course. Below shows an easy and effective way to organize your essay. You should delete these highlighted words before you submit your paper. If you prefer to delete the subtitles as well, check with your instructor first to see what he/she prefers.
Tip: Do not be afraid of the word count requirement. If you write between 150-167 words per section, you will be in the desired range.
Introduction
Introduce your topic. Lead up to your claim. Try to include the words “should” or “should not” in your claim to ensure that it is argumentative. Underlining your claim is helpful. Example: In the event of any pandemic, such as the recent COVID crisis, K-12 schools should be conducted virtually until the pandemic is over and a vaccination is available to all.
Background
Provide a brief history of your topic. This is a good place to answer some of the questions listed in the instructions. What is the problem being addressed (explain, describe, and “prove” that it exists)? Who is affected by this problem? Why does this problem exist (identify the root causes)? Why does the problem persist? (Identify the major factors that contribute to the problem’s ongoing presence.)
Side A
This is where you will present YOUR side of the argument (in third person). Example topic sentence: Due to the many safety and health concerns caused by face-to-face instruction, virtual learning is the obvious solution during a pandemic. INCLUDE RESEARCH AND CITATIONS. This might be a good place to answer, “what is at stake if the problem is not solved?”
Side B
This is where you will present THE OTHER side of the argument, the counterargument (in third person). Example topic sentence: Despite the dangers of schools meeting face-to-face, some insist that virtual education is not the solution. INCLUDE RESEARCH AND CITATIONS.
Possible Solutions
In this paragraph, you could answer: Who can take action? What should they do, exactly? Why would this help? What are the positive and negative aspects of your solution(s)? How do the positives outweigh the negatives and “win” in the end? INCLUDE RESEARCH AND CITATIONS.
Conclusion
Restate your claim in slightly unique way. Summarize and bring your essay to a satisfying finish. Write a full paragraph, no less than one hundred words.
