As you complete your work for this course, consider how your trials and obstacles can lead to success. For example, are you struggling with a certain area of writing?

Complete a 2.5-3-page informative essay based on the outline you wrote for Assessment 3.

The third stage of the Hero’s Journey is the trials faced by the hero as they move along their journey. All of the trials are experiences that should help with gaining wisdom along the way, but they are obstacles at first.

As you complete your work for this course, consider how your trials and obstacles can lead to success. For example, are you struggling with a certain area of writing? Are you struggling with completing the work? This week is a good time to consider areas of struggle, or trials, and reach out to your instructor to think of ways to remove these obstacles to continue on your path to successful course completion. As you continue with the stages of writing to draft your informative essay, be aware of your obstacles and actively seek to overcome these obstacles.

Part of facing obstacles is rethinking and reworking your path as you move along your quest. Writing a draft helps you consider obstacles you can overcome through revisions. You will continue through the stages of writing to first writing a draft of your paper, and then to revise and proofread your paper. As you do this, you will consider the obstacles encountered in the draft and resolve these through the revision process.

Here are some heroes who helped others resolve obstacles and trials:

Corrie ten Boom, writer, worked with her family members to help many Jews escape the Nazi Holocaust during the Second World War by hiding them in her home.
Alan Turing, father of artificial intelligence and theoretical computer science, helped the Allies defeat the Nazis by intercepting many coded messages. Although hard to measure, it is estimated that his work shortened the Second World War in Europe by 2–4 years and saved millions of lives.
Emily Greene Balch, Peace Prize recipient, was an economist, sociologist, and pacifist who had a long-standing interest in social issues such as poverty, child labor, and immigration.
Bill Gates, business person and technology guru, is also a philanthropist. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation focuses on health care goals, such as HIV or AIDS research and malaria vaccines.

How is the villain in your chosen film representative of the “dark side” of the hero? Explore their similarities. Ultimately, what sacrifice does the hero make, or what personal dangers do they embrace, to set them apart from that villain?

Section Two, Essay Response:
For this essay you will need to do the following:

1. Read the short excerpt on comic villains posted under the “Final Exam Information”
module.
2. Review our comics lectures and reading
3. Choose one of the three superhero films available to you in Sharestream Media. These
include Kickass, Wonder Woman and Black Panther.
You learned in my lecture that the best villains are so similar to the hero, that they could have
been (or were) friends. In the reading for the final, you’ll see that Fingeroth calls villains “the
dark side” of the hero. To take this a step further, as I said in lecture, what makes the hero so
heroic is often their willingness to sacrifice their personal gain or individual happiness for the
good of the community. This sacrifice is what marks them as heroic, and separates heroes from
villains.
After reviewing the readings and lecture, answer the following in a 750-word essay:
How is the villain in your chosen film representative of the “dark side” of the hero? Explore
their similarities. Ultimately, what sacrifice does the hero make, or what personal dangers do
they embrace, to set them apart from that villain?

Important points to keep in mind:
 Suggested topics of evaluation include Wonder Woman/Ares, Black Panther/Killmonger,
or Kickass/Red Mist.
 Citations from the texts are required for this exam. Be sure to utilize proper citation
protocols as well.
 Please utilize minute marks for your selected scenes so I can view them alongside your

Toxic Release Report

In 1986, Congress passed the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), an important environmental law that promotes emergency planning and provides the public with information about the release of toxic chemicals in their community. This law includes the establishment of the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) program to track the management of certain toxic chemicals that may pose a threat to human health and the environment. Industrial facilities must report annually how much of each chemical is released to the environment and/or managed through recycling, energy recovery, and treatment.

Go to the EPA’s TRI website.

https://www.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program

Input your state and city to view the TRI information for your city (if your city does not generate enough data, select a larger city in your state).

For this assignment:

Provide a quick summary of your city’s TRI report.
From the “Top Five Facilities by Total Disposal” in your city, choose one facility and describe the company and the reasons you think it uses such a large amount of hazardous chemicals.
Choose one chemical from the list of “Top Five Chemicals Released to Air and Water” and discuss its toxicity to humans and the environment. Use legitimate websites such as the Environment Protection Agency (EPA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or other U.S. government agency websites, or international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO).
Looking at the map of TRI facilities in your city, do you think there is an environmental justice issue in your city? Discuss and support your answer with evidence.
Your paper should be 3–4 pages in length (excluding cover page and reference page).
Use APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources. Your sources should be integrated into the paragraphs. Use internal citations pointing to evidence in the literature and supporting your ideas. You will need to include a reference page listing those sources.

Lab report of Staphylococcus epidermidis

BIO 120 Lab Unknown Report Guideline

Key sections:

1. Results: Include images (or drawings), and short descriiptions explaining the outcome of
each test. Include stain results, morphology and size, colony morphology on TSA plates and
slants. Include results of biochemical tests on media plates and in tubes. Be sure to explain
WHAT each test was testing for, and why.
2. Include a flowchart for each of your two organisms. Show how you ruled out the various
possibilities and came to the conclusion you did for YOUR organisms. It is okay to have the
keys on two separate pages if that makes formatting easier
3. Write a 1-2 page (single spaced, 11 pt font) narrative/discussion for one of the organisms
you identified in this project. This narrative describing your fictional future patient should
focus on the medical relevance of each organism, such as virulence factors and the type of
infections caused, treatments provided and patient outcome. If neither of your organisms
were a pathogen, you may select a related organism that is a pathogen.

You are a healthcare worker, working in your chosen profession! Congratulations! You did it!!!
BUT. One of your patients has become infected with the type of organism that you
have identified as your unknown! Describe the symptoms they exhibit. What tests did you (or the
doctor) do to determine what organism it was? What medications or therapy did the patient receive?
What was the outcome of their illness? Use the library reference databases (or library) to research
your organism and use in-text citations to illustrate how you used your research in your narrative.

Please note that this MUST be in your own words. You will receive ZERO points if you
have copied ANY sentences (or parts of sentences) from your sources.

4. Provide a bibliography/reference that you use in your in-text citations. Citations MUST
be in either APA or MLA format. You need a minimum of five references for the
organism you choose to write about. Only ONE of them can be your book OR
Wikipedia. Use peer- reviewed scientific articles for your other articles.
5. Include the Bacteria information sheet for each of your bacteria
6. You do NOT need to write a “Materials and Methods” section. Reports will be graded per
the rubric associated with this assignment.

Grade breakdown:

● Title and Abstract (4 pts)
o Be creative with the title. Try not to use the word ‘unknown’ in your title
o Abstract should summarize the full report

● Results (12 pts)

o Figures and tables should have legends
o Number the figures and tables based on the sequence you describe them, not
necessarily when they were performed chronologically

o Describe the figures and tables, conclusion of each test clearly stated
o Integrate the result descriiption with the figures, tables and flowcharts
(mention Figure 1 or Table 1 in the text when you describe them)
o Describe the logic of how you arrived at the identification of your bacteria (refer
to the flow charts when you do so)

● Flow charts (6 pts)
o Include both the Gram+ and Gram- flowcharts
o Highlight the path to your identification
o Make sure each step is dichotomous

● Bacteria information sheet (6 pts)
o Include both the Gram+ and Gram- information sheet

● Narrative/Discussion (16 pts)
o Introduce the narrative: the patient’s story and symptoms
o *Please note that some students opt to use an ‘Introduction’ at the beginning of
the report, and ‘Narrative/Discussion’ at the end of the report; this is not required
but will not impact your report grade if you choose to do it this way
o Provide some references for identifying causative agents based on the described
symptoms
o Discuss the tests that medical team (you the nurse, the doctor and the hospital
microbiology lab) have performed to help diagnose the patient’s illness
o Discuss some properties of your bacteria with what metabolic enzymes
they have (tie in the pathogenicity of the bacteria with the biochemical tests
we performed) that cause certain signs and symptoms
o What medications or therapies did the patient receive?
o Describe the outcome of the patient’s illness
o Use the library reference databases (or library) to research your organism
o Use in-text citations to illustrate how you used your research in your narrative
o Discuss the technical challenges of the unknown project / patient diagnosis
o Talk about how many tests were performed for each bacterium, and how
many were useful for ID purpose

● References (2 pts)
o At least 5 references, could be journal articles, book chapters, etc.
o Make sure the sources are scientific (CDC website, Mayo Clinic; Wikipedia is
not considered reliable because anyone could go on and edit the content)
o Extra credit is given if you use more than the minimum number of references

● Readability (4 pts)
o Use clear and concise language in the report
o Proofread before turning in the report (report full of typos and grammar

The Psychology of Decision-Making

Your paper needs to be 3 pages double spaced. It still needs to be APA formatted but the body of the paper only has to be three double spaced pages and fulfill the following guidelines:

1. Give the reader a general background on the topic you chose by constructing a brief introduction.

2. Describe at least two studies that were done that are directly related to the topic you introduced. This descriiption does not have to be extremely detailed. Remember the papers on the coffee experiment and the bobo doll? They just presented a vague picture of the experiments but you could still get a good sense of what was done. Try to present your studies similarly.

3. Critique both the studies you presented (i.e. are the conclusions presented reasonable from the results the researchers got?) and offer some insight or future directions for a study. If you want you could simply state any questions you have pertaining to the topic you introduced and what might be done to answer those questions. Just provide some kind conclusion with respect to your write up.

You will need to find at least three PEER REVIEWED JOURNAL ARTICLES that deal with the topic and the guidelines listed above! YOU CANNOT USE JUST ANY SOURCE OF THE INTERNET. You must find/use PEER REVIEWED JOURNAL ARTICLES!

So the paper must have:
Title page
Abstract
Three pages doubles spaced addressing the three guidelines
Reference page
Title running header – top left of each page
Page numbers – top right of each page
