Assignment

Using your best writing (correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation), analyze the artist’s use of line, shape, texture, and color. Use proper (and new!) terminology that you learned in the preceding lessons when describing the characteristics of each.

Organize

…your analysis into five paragraphs:

Introduction: Describe the overall impact of the work, then analyze specific aspects of the following:
Line: What types of lines are used? What adjectives could you apply to the use of line? (ex., are lines nervous, calm, rigid, shy, etc.?)
Shape: What types of shapes did the artist use in this work? How do the shapes work with each other and how do they work with the use of line?
Texture: Identify the types of texture you observe, using precise vocabulary terms
Color: How would you describe the use of color in this work? What effect does the use of color contribute to the work?
Underline

As you compose your analysis, underline each vocabulary term.

What types of services does the term “procedure coding” include?

Use in-text citations appropriately and provide full citations for your initial post and at least one of your response posts. One of your citations needs to be outside of your text.
The idea is that you would not only comment on your classmate’s post but also do some additional research furthering the discussion.

In addition to the patient’s diagnosis, the other pieces of information associated with every health care encounter are the procedure codes, the dates of service, the location in which they were performed, and the physician or other provider who performed them.
Topic – Procedure Coding – Answer each of the questions:
How does the location of where a service is performed determine which code set is used. Relate issues such as reimbursement schedules, co-pay amounts, and coverage limitations.
What is a reimbursement schedule?
What is a copay?

Describe the fundamental characteristics of the approach, its object of study (e.g., the structure and processes of the brain, the relationships between the brain and cognitive processes such as language or reasoning), and its methods of investigation (two to three methods of investigation) (e.g., scientific experiments, patient studies, computer simulation).

Your individual research paper
will pertain to one
approach in the cognitive sciences (I chose The Social Approach)
1.
Introduction
State the main highlights of the approach that is presented.
Balance the length of the introduction and the conclusions (e.g., 1 / 3 of a
page).

2.
Describe the fundamental characteristics of the
approach, its object of study (e.g., the structure and processes of the brain,
the relationships between the brain and cognitive processes such as language or
reasoning), and its methods of investigation (two to three methods of
investigation) (e.g., scientific experiments, patient studies, computer
simulation).

3.
Describe the characteristics of two models
of the mind generated from this approach.
In
contrast to a theory, a model refers to specific aspects of the mind (e.g.,
types of mental representations such as abstract symbols or images).

4.
Explain the relationships of the two models relative
to one another (e.g., are both models
complementary models? E.g., a model of cognition and a model of brain
processes can be complementary). Is one model an extension of the other? Is one
of the models an opponent model to the other?).
After which, explain the relationships of the two
models with a previous one or a contemporary one (e.g., Are the models
integrating a basic or simple model?) (e.g., A model of memory can be created
from a cognitive approach, a neuroscience approach, and the cognitive
neuroscience approach. The latter model can represent an integration of the
former two.)

5.
Explain two important advantages or contributions of
the approach.

6.
Conclusions
Summarize two important
findings of your research and describe two research issues for the future.

7.
References
List all
the academic references that you have used for your assignment.

What are the implications for the proposed hypotheses [for quantitative studies] or research questions [for qualitative or quantitative studies], the previous literature and the wider communities of interest?

This assignment will be submitted to Turnitin®.
Using the attached Assignment #6 – Discussion and Conclusion (TEMPLATE), conclude your study by providing a thorough discussion of key findings, as well as any recommendations for further research. In this section of your study, you will include the following information:
Introduction (this introduction forms the transition, not an introduction to the study itself. State the purpose of the section and then present the following sub-sections)
Discussion (what are the implications for the proposed hypotheses [for quantitative studies] or research questions [for qualitative or quantitative studies], the previous literature and the wider communities of interest?)
Conclusion (researchers can discuss as many as four categories of recommendations for further studies. Each category reflects back on one of the previous sub-sections; the three most common categories of recommendations include those:
developed directly from the data
Derived from methodological, research design or other limitations of the study
To investigate issues not supported by the data but relevant to the problem being studied)
Use Alot of detail

(Links to an external site.)
in the University of Arizona Global Campus Library will be particularly helpful in locating required sources.This assignment is your opportunity to apply the auteur theory to the work of one selected director. To do that, you will watch at least two feature-length films by the same director as the basis for your analysis and argument.
Note: You should watch any chosen film twice—once to ensure that you have grasped the storytelling and once to take more specific notes on aspects of the film you wish to discuss. You may choose any appropriate director, but be sure to consider the three criteria of auteur theory before making your selection. Reflect on the film you chose in your Week 2 written assignment and look ahead to the Week 5 Final Paper guidelines to ensure that you choose a film for this assignment that will work with the requirements on the Week 5 Final Paper. You may opt to write about the same film in your Week 2 written assignment and Week 5 Final Paper, and applicable pieces of this assignment can be used to write both. If you do this, you should reflect on and revise this assignment based on the instructor’s feedback before you incorporate it into any future writing assignments.
Your paper should be organized around a thesis statement that focuses on how your chosen director and his/her films meet the criteria posed by auteur theory and advance the possibilities of storytelling through the medium of film. Review the Week 3 Sample Paper

Describe, using Chapter 8 of the text as a reference, the criteria for what makes a director an auteur.
Identify a director who meets the criteria posed by auteur theory
Summarize briefly the ways in which this director meets those criteria using examples from at least two of the director’s films.
Apply the lens of auteur theory in breaking down the director’s technical competence, distinguishable personality, and interior meaning using specific examples of his/her work (e.g., particular scenes or plot components).
Analyze the specific ways in which filmmaking techniques, consistent themes, and storytelling distinguish your chosen director as an auteur among his/her peers.
