What did you learn from this experience that has informed your later life What larger truth about life — called an epiphany — did you reach?

Prompt 1: The Narration/ Descriptive Strategy
Based on what you have learned about the narration and descriptive rhetorical strategies, write a paragraph or brief paper about one of the following:
An event from your childhood that led to a truth about life
Something memorable that happened at school that gave you a truth about life
Something that happened at work that revealed a truth about the job, your profession or life in general
An event that helped you understand an intangible concept such as love, loyalty, patriotism, sacrifice, etc.
An incident in which you felt a sense of déjà vu or that an event was more than a coincidence–“the stars aligning,” a “God sighting,” etc. that led to a clear understanding of a larger truth in life
A time you witnessed something in nature that made an impression on you or gave new meaning to your life
To be successful on this assignment, you must include the realization from the event ( the epiphany) and you must include sensory descriptive language. After writing, the narrative, go back and layer in description., Without descriptive langauge, you will not receive full credit.

Your paper should contained detailed paragraphs that illustrate both narration and description The writing should include the following:
For each paragraph, ( except the introduction) A topic sentence / thesis statement that states your claim for the paragraph
Evidence in the form of experience, observation, or testimony
Analysis of the possible significance of that event: What did you learn from this experience that has informed your later life What larger truth about life — called an epiphany — did you reach?
A conclusion that answers the question, “So what?” Why should your audience care? What is your audience’s “take-away”? How did the event change you?

Where and when was Equiano born and why does this matter for our understanding of his accounts of slavery?

After reading Equiano’s autobiography and Caretta and Lovejoy’s discussion of the issues around Equiano’s place and date of birth, your job is to choose a side in the debate and argue your position.
In a 3-5 page paper, answer one or more of the sets of questions below. You should use Equiano’s autobiography and the articles by Caretta and Lovejoy to support your position. All sources must be cited using Chicago Manual of Style footnotes. No sources outside those assigned for this class should be used. Your paper should have an introduction with a clear thesis, body paragraphs with evidence, and a conclusion.
Discussion Questions:
Where and when was Equiano born and why does this matter for our understanding of his accounts of slavery?
Why did Equiano (potentially) alter his story about his life? How would he have known about the traditions of West African communities if he was not born there? Does it matter if these are his memories or compilations of the memories of fellow enslaved people?
What is at stake in the debate between Caretta and Lovejoy? How does this debate reveal changing ideas about the history of slavery and emancipation and our understanding of the sources we rely on for information about enslaved people?

What else do you think would be important to ask in a food & mood app?

1.
You represent a marketing agency that has been recently hired at a local hospital to help create awareness about the resources offered by the hospital for those with food addiction. The hospital has an outpatient center dedicated to helping people recover from food addictions and disorders. The hospital is not very active on social media and currently has poor engagement.
Your agency team meets with the hospital team and determines that the first task should be to increase awareness of a “Food & Mood” App that supports people in stages 1 and 2 of the Transtheoretical Model (Stages of Change) in making healthy diet changes.
You are then tasked with designing an awareness campaign to accomplish the goal of:
Increasing awareness by 20% of the Food and Mood App by Hospital Clients
After completing the food tracking app, your agency decided to design a short campaign for the hospital and are ready to determine how much to spend on it based upon how long they expect customers to remain with the hospital’s food addiction program.
Use the CLV formula to determine the total income that each client represents to the hospital: ( the results are in bold)
Each visit by a patient brings in: $115
Direct Costs Per Visit: $49
Contribution Margin (CM) Per Visit: $ _66____
Projected Lifetime Visits: 1 visits per month x 8 months = ___8_
Customer Lifetime Value (LTV): 66 CM/visit x _8___ visits per year = $___528___ LTV per patient
3. Answer the following questions in the discussion post:
After tracking your food intake in the App, what patterns, issues, concerns, holes, etc., did you notice about your own food consumption?
What were you surprised about?
What else do you think would be important to ask in a food & mood app?
In the campaign, what is the projected lifetime value of a customer?
What % percentage and $ amount of the final LTV will you recommend spending on the promotional campaign for the hospital and discuss why. (Generally from 5-25% of LTV)
How would you pitch the campaign and its costs to the hospital?
