Write an essay on the novel “fifteen dogs” by André Alexis

Write an essay prompt related to your novel and develop a tightly-structured and carefully-written essay. Use standard essay format with a clear introduction that focuses your reader on your topic. The last sentence of the introduction needs to be the thesis statement for the paper. Remember: a thesis is a carefully crafted one or two-line statement that articulates the central claim/arguable point of the paper.
The body of the essay must have at least three well-developed paragraphs that begin with topic sentences and have evidence (quotation or paraphrase) for all of the claims made about the novel you studied. The conclusion of the paper refocuses the reader around the thesis and draws the lessons of your paper to a close. Leave room for further discussion in your tone at the close because you have not exhausted all the possibilities on your topic.
Style:
Use college-level vocabulary for the paper. The language should be natural but formal. Do not use personal pronouns. Use APA 7th edition documentation throughout.
Research:
This is a formal literary essay that is analytical and based on your interpretation of the work plus those interpretations of your secondary sources. Consult at least three secondary sources. You must document these sources fully in two places: 1. in-text citations after quotations/paraphrases, and 2. a References list at the end of your essay. Any omission here constitutes plagiarism and therefore academic dishonesty.

Discuss about smallpox effects on indigenous health and the blanket.

Research essay which will
have an introduction (including your thesis statement or main argument and an
outline of your main supporting arguments), several paragraphs (each of which
will have a topic sentence and supporting arguments and evidence), and a
conclusion (rephrasing your thesis statement and main arguments). You will use
footnotes or endnotes to indicate where you have gotten your information from,
and you will include a bibliography

What is the most ethical among all of your alternatives?

Use Dr. Manuel Velasquez’s Seven-Step Approach to Moral Decision Making to determine how you would deal with the following ethical situation to determine what actions you would take. Explain each step fully.Each step must be covered in detail and explained completely. The seven step method found in Chapter 6 on pages 185-196 in the physical textbook contains each of the seven steps with examples. You can find that information in Chapter 7 of the e-book.
Case Study: The Professor
You are the Dean of the Business Department at Shirley Chisholm College. One of your best professors, Professor Ed U. Cater has been teaching in the Business Department for fourteen years. The student evaluations for Professor Cater have always been excellent. The students like himand a very high percentage of students feel that they learn a lot from him. You have observed him and have seen that he does a very good job in the classroom. He is always there to assist the studentswhen they need assistance and he helps other teachers also. You have been able to count on him for anything you or the department needs from him. You and the students consider him one of the best professors in the department.
Every few years, the state requires that the colleges review the credentials of their teaching staff. You have just done the review and you found out that Mr. Cater did not graduate from the colleges he had listed on his list of colleges attended and degrees attained. He actually did not graduate from any college with a Bachelors or Graduate Degree.
What would you do about this situation? Use the Velazquez Model to show your thinking and final decision.
* Using the seven-step Velasquez Model, and numbering each step, apply this method to your decision-making process. (You do not have to use the SEA Method in Step 5.)
The Seven-Step Approach To Moral Decision Making:Dr. Manuel Velasquez
Step One: What are the facts?
Step Two: What are the ethical issues? (consider the ethical issue’s effects on the individual parties, the organization as a whole or as a “systemic” – (Velasquez’s term)
Step Three: What are some alternatives? (at least 3)
Step Four: Who are the stakeholders? (at least 3)
Step Five: What is the most ethical among all of your alternatives? – In this step, you focus on the stakeholders affected by your decision. Substeps are:identify each alternative, identify each stakeholder, and compare each alternative and its effect on each stakeholder.
Step Six: What are the tradeoffs for selecting the most ethical alternative? – after you identified the most ethical alternative, determine how it will affect the other stakeholders.
Step Seven: What action will you take? – Select your action and explain why that is the best action.

Describe how these artists and their works are similar and also different.

For the Term Project, you are required to write an Expository Essay, which is a type of essay that requires you to investigate an idea, evaluate evidence, expound on the idea, and create an argument concerning that idea, in a clear and concise manner. The objective of the Term Project assignment is to analyze the major question of the course which is, In what ways can art effect change?

This assignment is required and worth 400 points of your final course grade. This Essay fulfills the Scholarship In Practice Requirement for this course.

In 1,500 words, your essay will focus on ONE environmental topic (chosen from the list provided) and will select TWO eco-artists that create art about that same environmental topic. The artists you choose must be artists working within the environmental topic you chose. You may choose artists featured in this course (from the module materials or course textbook) or one can be an eco-artist you have found in your own research.

In the Term Project Essay, you will introduce the environmental topic and then the artists to the reader. Next you will compare the artistic discipline, materials, and strategies of both artists and the ways that these artists are working in similar ways to effectively create change within the environment and/or community.

The essay will conclude with a proposed idea for a project that these two artists could collaborate on a project together. Think of it as a ″Mash Up″, when you put the two together what would they do? Unlike a traditional research essay you have the opportunity in your conclusion to BE CREATIVE, so do your best to think up a unique project and be very desсrіptive about the details.Title Page: Please include: Assignment Title, Your Name, Professor′s Name, Class/Section, and Date.

Paragraph 1 (Introduction): Introduce the eco-issue and artists you are writing about and write a clear thesis statement.

A thesis statement identifies the subject you are writing about and your opinion of that subject.

Paragraph 2 (Body): Give information about your first artist.

Provide some background research on Artist 1 and describe the type of work they do. Identify a work of art by this artist, including title and date. State how this work relates to the environmental topic that you have identified. What has this artist said about their work?

Paragraph 3 (Body): Give information about your second artist.

Provide some background research on Artist 2 and describe the type of work they do. Identify a work of art by this artist, including title and date. State how this work relates to the environmental topic that you have identified. What has this artist said about their work?

Paragraph 4 (Body): Compare and contrast these two artists and artworks.

Describe how these artists and their works are similar and also different. Use specific details when comparing their artistic discipline, materials and strategies they use. Based on your research and analysis share with the reader your personal perspective and evaluate how effective you think the two artists are in the conveying the the context of their work.

Paragraph 5 (Artist Collaboration Idea + Conclusion): Describe your artist collaboration idea and conclude your essay.

The conclusion paragraph is the place to use a cultural, artistic, or philosophical approach to propose a collaborative project that could indeed affect change.First make an argument for why these two artists should collaborate together on an art project. Next, give specific details on details like: materials to be used, process of how the artists will make it, what will it visually look like, how will people interact with it, where would it be located, how would it impact the community and/or create awareness about the issue, etc. Think about creating a new dynamic project based on both artists′ styles and previous interests, rather than re-creating a project they have already done. Conclude your essay with statements that support your thesis, like why the eco-topic deserves attention and how the collaboration would affect change within the environment.

What has helped them feel more comfortable/productive during their “Covid” work (1-2 paragraphs), and what is now harder for them (1-2 paragraphs).

For this assignment, you will interview two people whose work has been significantly altered by the Covid pandemic. One must be an “essential” employee who has had to continue to come in to work, and one must be someone who has shifted to primarily work-from-home. For each interviewee, you will report:

· How they had done their work before the pandemic (1-2 paragraphs), and how the work is done differently now (1-2 paragraphs).
· What has helped them feel more comfortable/productive during their “Covid” work (1-2 paragraphs), and what is now harder for them (1-2 paragraphs)

Then, looking at their results, provide three well-explained specific recommendations for HR managers in how they can best manage employees through and (hopefully) after the pandemic, making specific reference to how they promote whole-person workplace values.

You can focus on any aspects of HR you want (selection, onboarding, performance evaluation, wellness, workplace safety, technology, work design, legal issues, etc.).

Draw from your interviews, what we learned throughout the class, and your personal experiences with technology or workplace safety issues (about 1-2 pages).

Finally, you will conclude with two paragraphs explaining how and why some Covid-related workplace changes may be useful for companies to retain in the future.
