Comic Strip

The purpose of this assignment is to get you to think about how to represent your ideas visually. Research suggests that the ability to tell a story visually can help students organize their thoughts and improve their writing.

You will be required to depict, as a comic strip, one work process or, a historical case study relevant to the study of labour or, an overview of exploitation etc. Two sample topics are listed at the bottom of this page. Sample comic strips (one of which we will be studying in greater detail in class) include:

UK Archives and Magic in the Middle Ages

Primary Source Essay: Unit 7
Introduction
Students will distinguish themselves through authoritative research and writing opportunities via the medium of medieval historical documents and secondary sources, recalling the key political, social, economic, and environmental factors that brought about systemic transformations of medieval societies as relating to the phenomenon of witch hunting and popular beliefs in witchcraft. Students will measure their knowledge of the medieval world through an understanding of basic facts surrounding witchcraft, but also grapple with the complex ideas that have dominated historiographic theories of medieval societies. Specifically, students will describe how popular beliefs in magic and superstation eventually led to widespread fears of witches with supernatural diabolical powers. They will then compare the differing responses to witchcraft among the major European regions, analyzing the role of violence, coercion, and local influence upon the legal code within witch trials. Finally, students will interpret how witch trials paved the way for more just and fair legal procedures and law codes at the end of the middle ages.

Directions
You are expected to write an essay based upon a set of primary readings provided for you in the UK Archives (https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/education/resources/early-modern-witch-trials/) (actual sources from the time period)

Using outside sources will result in failing the assignment. This means non-course approved alternative websites, articles, or monographs, ie Wikipedia. You must answer the research question provided below. You will construct, in consultation with the instructor, a persuasive, analytical, historical research paper. This means making an argument with a thesis and defending the argument with facts from the primary texts and secondary literature, and proving why you are correct in your interpretation. You will be evaluated upon historical accuracy and analytical ability.

Your paper must be:

4 pages
Double-spaced, 12 point font

Public Relations and Sports

t‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌udents individually write an essay in response to the below questions. The task assesses students’ ability to use theoretical underpinnings particularly on sports fandom and their understanding of audience perception of sporting events, personalities and other stakeholders. The aim of the task is for students to explore sports communication from an audience perspective, a fundamental element in public relation campaign strategy formulation. Students engage in primary and secondary research to examine either a sports event or sports personality across diverse traditional and online media platforms. The essay follows requisites of academic writing and expression. Question: Define the relationship between Public Relations and Sports. Explore the relative concepts in detail ensuring that you cover issues relating to relationship management, communication strategies and publics. Consider at least two communication theories. Evaluate and analyse how these theories can be applied within sports PR practice. Give specific examples using a variety of sports and or sporting organisations as a point of reference. Consider sports fandom, audience perception of sporting events, personalities and other stakeholders. You must ensure that you are applying the appropriate theoretical concepts within your work through in-text referencing using UTS APA style. You should be covering concepts and theories ‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌discussed at Weeks 1, 2 & 3.

What is your household income per year? Are you employed full-time, part-time, casual? What is your level of education/qualification? How long have you worked? How many jobs hav‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌e you worked?

H‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌i Everyone, For next Monday evening’s webinar, I would like you all to prepare (again) 1-2 pages on your Research Heirarchy. The (5) five level ‘hierarchy of concepts’ is used to show this process of abstraction for the heirarchy. Moving downwards towards the data, these are: Area – context Topic – clearn and succint identification of area within the context General research questions – general concepts that will shape the research and the relationships between them Specific research questions – become more specific and about the concepts in terms of aspects, components or dimensions and relationships Data collections questions – very specific types of questions respondents will be asked for example in an interview (provide up to 5 for the presentation) The specific research questions must be posed in such a way that indicates what data will probably‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ be needed to answer it. It is said a question well asked is half answered. Once the general and specific research questions are in place, research methods can be identified and described to explain how the data will be collected and analysed. Worked Example: Research area: Youth suicide Research topic (two possible): 1. Suicide rates among different groups or 2. Youth culture and meaning of suicide General research question (pursuing topics 1): What is the relationship between family background factors and youth suicide? Specific research questions (develop more than one specific question): What is the relationship between family income and youth suicide? Data collection questions: What is your household income per year? Are you employed full-time, part-time, casual? What is your level of education/qualification? How long have you worked? How many jobs hav‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌e you worked?

‘The Leavers” by Lisa Ko Essay

PROMPT: The experience of women who immigrate to the United States is in no way universal. The reasons for leaving, the families left behind–each individual has a unique story. Yet Ko asks us to examine how the role of gender in the context of immigration surrounds/impacts the agency of the immigrants who leave their homes for a new American life. How do women grapple with the ideals of American womanhood? How do they exert their power and their voice as both women and foreigners?

Note: I currently have a thesis [attatched below], but if you feel like there is a better argument to be maid, then do whatever you think is best!
“Through the protagonsit Polly Guo, Lisa Ko explores how gender and immigrant status restrict the mobility of minority peoples and leads them to the same outcome: restlessness.”
– Body Paragraph One: how gender and immigrant status restrict Polly in China
– Body Paragraph Two: how gender and immigrant status and gender restrict Polly in the US
– How the limitations of gender and immigrant status ultimately lead to restlessness (not feeling settled)

*the thesis has to be clear, specific, and argumentative*
