What hegemony constructs, then, is not a shared ideology but a common material and meaningful framework for living through, talking about, and acting upon social orders characterized by domination.

“What hegemony constructs, then, is not a shared ideology but a common material and meaningful framework for living through, talking about, and acting upon social orders characterized by domination.” (Roseberry, pp. 360-61).

Discus on the Demonstration of professional oral and written communication skills.

This assignment will allow students the opportunity to enhance their professional communication skills. Students will present the findings from their special populations paper (Assignment 2) to their colleagues during the last week of class. The goal of your presentation is to provide your colleagues with a deeper understanding of the population you have researched. Professional presentations are most effective when they provide both a written format as well as accompanying audio and/or video. May be posted on Discussion Board Beginning on 4/15/20 at noon EST and ending on 4/18/20, 11:59 pm EST. You may comment on colleagues’ presentations until 4/20/20, 5:00 pm EST.

Use of PowerPoint with audio on each slide meets this requirement; alternate strategies may be approved in advance by the instructors. Presentations may last up to 15 minutes.

Reflecting professional conference presentations, each presentation should identify 3 to 5 learning goals. Ask yourself, “what knowledge will the viewer/your colleagues develop as a result of watching this presentation?”

Your presentation will be graded in the following areas:

Are the quotes and examples from your novel thoroughly explained and analyzed?

Directions: Analyze selected
scenes/character(s) from Colson Whitehead’s The Nickel Boys and write a third
person, argumentative, literary analysis essay that analyzes a theme and one or
two literary elements that Whitehead employs to deliver his message. As this is
an argumentative essay, you must argue for the purpose of Whitehead’s choices
and the intended message that the reader is supposed to come away with. To
support your argument, your paper must include several short quotes from the
novel and at least one quote from a scholarly article. You must meet the word
count and format the paper in MLA style.
Textual evidence from the novel: you
will need to quote the novel to support your claims about the theme you are
writing about. Be selective about your quotes. Your quotes should be short. Only include the essence of
the quote. Your explanation and analysis must outnumber the select quote.
For instance, in each body paragraph most of the words must come from you.
Quotes cannot take over your paper. Use quotes as support to your ideas. Quote
in MLA like so:
According to Whitehead “in each body paragraph
most of the words must come from you. Quotes cannot take over your paper. Use
quotes as support to your ideas” (23).
OR
“In each body paragraph most of the words must
come from you. Quotes cannot take over your paper. Use quotes as support to your
ideas” (Whitehead 23).
Research component:

you
will need to incorporate 1-2 SHORT quotes from one scholarly articles that
relates to the theme you are writing about. For example, if you are writing
about the power of institutions in the novel, you may find an article about
prisons and institutionalization. Note that the research article does not
necessarily have to mention the novel but they it does have to be about the
theme in the novel you are exploring. Additionally, the quotes you include from
the article must be smoothly integrated into your argument about the novel and
cannot exceed 3 lines. You must quote in MLA style like so:
According to Kendra Smith, “women took on
significant roles outside the home as factory workers, business owners, and
other jobs normally reserve for men. When men returned, they found it difficult
to reintegrate to society and women found freedom and power in their new roles
as bread winners” (46).
Or
“women took on significant roles outside the
home…When men returned, they found it difficult to reintegrate to society and
women found freedom and power in their new roles as bread winners” (Smith 46).

Describe the process investigators used to process the crime scene in this case

Crime Scene Research Paper
Step 1: Report
Select a criminal case with a computer forensics component that has not been covered in class materials
Suggested Cases:
Casey Anthony
Dennis Rader (BTK)
Jodi Arias
Lori Vallow/Chad Daybell
Aaron Hernandez
Research a criminal case and write a research report about how the crime scene and digital evidence was processed in that case
Summary:
Approximately 3-5 pages single spaced, Arial or Calibri font, 12 point, 1 inch margins
Summarize the case
Provide a brief overview of the case (Note: this should be brief, the purpose of the paper is analyzing the CRIME SCENE processing and should focus on the DIGITAL EVIDENCE component.)
Review the evidence & any available information
Describe the process investigators used to process the crime scene in this case
Include information about any mistakes that were made in the case
What was the outcome of the case?
Analysis:
Approximately 1-2 pages single spaces, Arial or Calibri font, 12 point, 1 inch margins
What would you do differently or the same?
Were there any issues in processing the crime scene/case that had an impact on the outcome/prosecution of the case?
Appendix:

Works Cited:
Cite any sources you use in APA – both in-text and a works cited page
Use at least 3 reputable sources to support your report.
Step 2: Conduct a “Background Check” on Yourself
Imagine you are one of the investigators in this case and will be presenting evidence in court. You need to ensure that there is nothing you have posted online or in your background that could be challenged by the opposing side that could put your case in jeopardy.
Remember the article: http://arstechnica.com/web/news/2009/03/officers-online-comments-used-against-him-in-court.ars
Research online to make sure there is nothing that could discredit your character as a witness.
Look for anything you can find online (i.e. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.) that would question your values or credibility.
Write a brief summary of the process you took to conduct the background check and whether or not you found anything that could be questioned. You do not need to provide details or information about what you found, just the process and if you did or did not find anything. (Just a paragraph or two is needed. This does not need to be extensive.)
Include your background check summary after the works cited page in your report.
