The third part of the project involves locating three health-related websites that are sources of information on your drug/drug category. Think about these as sites you would or would not recommend to someone who is looking for information about your drug. One site should be a good source, one should be average, and one should be bad. Please be sure to clearly and specifically define these terms yourself based on your assessment of each site. Please make sure you are using websites and not single articles/items (such as PDFs, dictionary definitions, or blogs). Credit will only be given for sources that are websites. Please do not use Commonly Used Drugs Charts | National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) as one of your sites, since we already explored that one in Part II. Wikipedia and similar encyclopedia sites are not acceptable as sources for this research project.
Part III should address the questions and information below, as a discussion, using paragraph format. The submission of bulleted lists or an outline will result in a significant loss of credit.

How difficult was it to find the three websites addressing your drug/category?

For each website, provide the following information in paragraph/discussion format:
Web address
Author
Date the site was last updated
Type of site (i.e. educational, government, commercial, nonprofit)
Audience for whom the site is intended – and why you think so
Quality of site (good, average, bad) – with your definition of each rating
Explanation of why you chose this as either your good, average or bad site
————–

Grading for Part III of the Course Project will be based on:
1) Quality of the work: Your interpretation, analysis, and explanation of what your are learning is important! Give it some depth, and use your own words.
2) Using the same drug or drug category you used in Part II, as the parts of this project are cumulative. The same drug/category must be used to avoid receiving a 0 on this part of the paper.
3) Minimal use of direct quotes: This project requires individual interpretation of information. Points will be deducted from the grade for more than one use of a direct quote.
4) Title and Reference pages: Part III must have a cover page that includes a title for your project, your name, the professor’s name, and the course name. References should be listed on the last page. Submitting these pages as separate documents will result in deduction of points.
5) Accuracy of the citations using APA guidelines
6) Spelling and grammar: Remember that the more mistakes you make, the more points you will lose, so be sure to run spell- and grammar-check on this (and all of your) work!
7) Length: Part III should be 1-1 ½ pages of content. Points will be deducted if the paper is much shorter or much longer. Your paper should consist of more than just a single paragraph. Papers that are only one paragraph long will have points deducted. The title and reference pages should be part of the same document, but do not count in the page count.
8) Font: Please use 12 point font, in either Arial or Times New Roman. The font must be a dark color, either black or dark blue.
9) Margins: All margins must be one-inch.
10) Spacing: Papers must be double spaced with no additional lines between paragraphs.

for each case presented here (file attached) – address the following questions in a one pager. If you are familiar with an AVID one-pager, you know that they use images to portray what they want to say. In this reflection though, there will be no images used – simply word reflections and thoughts addressing the following questions.
Questions:
What signs do you see?
What do you see as some of the child’s strength?
What are some challenges that you observe?
As a teacher, what plan would you put in place to assist the child?
How do you help families and/or school personnel to recognize coping behaviors that are a result of trauma vs. “bad behavior?” Are these signs different?
In what ways can we help children develop secure attachment relationships when they have been exposed to early trauma?
***MUST BE WRITTEN ONE PAGE PER CASE***

Here are some guidelines to help you apply important citation standards:
· For an essay of 1,800–2,200 words, you should use at least five credible sources outside of the course materials to gather research material for your chosen topic.
· Do not use Wikipedia as a research source or a source of definitions. Since any page can be edited by any user, it is NOT a credible source of information for university-level research.
· Citations give credit to the original author and help the reader find the original source. Each idea that is not your own, whether quoted, paraphrased, or otherwise used to substantiate your analysis, should be accompanied by an in-text citation, with a complete reference in a references page. This applies to written material, charts, graphs, and other kinds of data.
· Back up your statements with proper citation references. You can build a stronger argument through referencing.
· Sources need to be specifically cited in the text with complete references included in a list at the end of the paper.
· You may use either MLA or APA Style for citing references. The Athabasca University Write Site provides help with essay writing. It is also a good source of information regarding the proper use of APA and MLA referencing styles, and it provides an overview on avoiding plagiarism through the use of proper documentation. See the section entitled “Documentation & Plagiarism.”
· Please be aware of Athabasca University’s Student Academic Misconduct Policy.
Essay Topics
1. Choose any country of interest. Discuss, in detail, how the country has evolved economically and politically over the past 50 years, what areas of the country have improved, where the county stands now, and what types of challenges and public policies need to be implemented to enhance future economic development prospects and standards of living.
2. With regard to corporate social responsibility and globalization, companies are realizing the high costs associated with irresponsible and unethical behaviour now more than ever. Examine a corporation with respect to international policy, corporate citizenship, health and safety, environmental protection, and international practices.
3. Intellectual property rights are evolving into a major issue, both in terms of the need to have legislation in place to attract MNEs and FDI and also in terms of the extent to which these rights are violated in many developing countries. Discuss the evolution of intellectual property rights and the implications violating these rights. (Note: China tops the US annual list of countries criticized for inadequate protection of copyrights, patents, and other intellectual property rights).
4. Does globalization and the integration of economies and financial markets lead to more or less economic/financial market volatility? Some would argue that the free flow of capital has led to more hot money that can be moved out of a country, the volume of which puts tremendous pressure on the value of the domestic currency and subsequent health of the economy. Is more regulation of capital/capital controls needed in order to avoid this volatility, or do domestic governments simply need to be more responsible and accountable for their actions?
5. Address globalization with respect to what needs to be done by governments of LDCs and other international agencies to address poverty. Focus on a specific country or countries.
6. Examine the impact of a financial crisis faced by a country or a region, and consider the prospects for resolution of the crisis by the national government, the governments of other countries, and the IMF.
7. Discuss agricultural subsidies programs in developed nations and their impact on the globalized economy.
8. As a nation increasingly participates in a globalized economy, what is the impact on its national sovereignty? What public policies might need to be implemented to preserve that nation’s sovereignty?
9. What is the impact of the Canadian social contract in mitigating any adverse impacts of globalization on the welfare of Canadians?
10. Discuss the IMF approach to economic stabilization: Does one size fit all nations?
11. Discuss the impact of outsourcing on the nations involved and the need for proper governmental policy on outsourcing by the respective governments.

Purpose: The purpose of a Visual Rhetorical Analysis Essay is to analyze and explain how and a visual accomplishes its purpose. In the case of an advertisement, you will analyze and explain how it persuades the audience to buy the product.

Writing this kind of essay will help you learn the following skills:
Break apart a visual to understand how it works
Explain how it works to someone else
Define, identify, and explain the rhetorical appeals, situations, and devices
Create a Works Cited page entry for an advertisement

This essay aligns with the following Course Competencies from the Course Syllabus:
Demonstrate writing as a recursive process.
Demonstrate writing and inquiry in context using different rhetorical strategies to reflect, analyze, explain, and persuade in a variety of genres and formats.
Demonstrate the critical use and examination of printed, digital, and visual materials.
Locate, evaluate, and incorporate relevant sources with proper documentation.
Compose texts incorporating rhetorically effective and conventional use of language.

Assignment: You will write a minimum 4 full page Visual Rhetorical Analysis essay on a print ad of your choice (but it must advertise a product), identifying and explaining the rhetorical elements from our VRA Map, with emphasis on the rhetorical appeals.

Finding an Ad: Please do NOT Google search for print ads. You may find a great ad to use, but if you don’t know when or where it was published, you’re not going to know the context. Also, some “images” may just be stills from a commercial and won’t work for this assignment as a result. Try to find a print ad from a magazine if you can. If you don’t have access to a magazine, use this website instead: https://www.adsoftheworld.com/. Your ad MUST utilize all three rhetorical appeals; otherwise, you will not have three analysis body paragraphs.

Summary of Ad Requirements:
Must advertise a product
Must be a print ad (preferably from a hard copy magazine)
Must utilize all three rhetorical appeals

Documentation & Sources: MLA page set-up and a Works Cited page at the end of your essay with the entry for your ad.

Organization:
Introduction:
Hook
Background
Thesis Statement
Body Paragraph 1: Description of ad
Use location identifiers
Body Paragraphs (1 for each appeal, in order from least to greatest or greatest to least)
Topic Sentence
Identify Examples (clear examples from ad)
Explain Why Examples are that Appeal (why is that example clearly ethos/logos/pathos?)
Explain Why that Appeal Works (why does that convince the audience to buy the product?)
Transition Sentence
Conclusion:
Restate thesis
Review/recap
So What?
BANG!
Works Cited page

Helpful Reminders:
Don’t advertise the product. (Here’s why you should buy this product!) Analysis should be objective. (Here’s why this advertisement is successful at convincing its audience to buy the product.)
Credibility vs. Creditability: Ethos is credibility (being credible), not creditability (the ability to have credit).
Only use what’s in the ad. You can’t use any background info from other websites. You’re only analyzing what’s on the actual ad itself.
Make sure that your ad uses all three rhetorical appeals (ethos, logos, and pathos). Otherwise, you will not be able to complete this essay.
Make sure that your ad advertises a product (something you can go into the store and buy off the shelves), not a service (Netflix) or a stance (anti-smoking or political ad).
Create your thesis statement using the formula from the Pre-Writing Worksheet.
Writing — Outlining:
Write the descriptive paragraph for your ad. Make sure it is at least 7-9 sentences long. Follow a logical pattern of organization. For example, if it is a single page ad, describe it from top to bottom. If it is a double page ad, describe the first page from top to bottom, and then the second page from top to bottom. Use locator/identifier words and phrases, such as “to the right of,” “underneath,” and “at the very bottom.” You do not need a transition sentence at the end of this paragraph. Your readers will naturally know you are moving on based on the identifier/locator phrase about the bottom of the ad.
Create the topic sentences for each body paragraph using the formula from the Pre-Writing Worksheet. Make sure to clearly identify the appeal, specific type of appeal (such as credibility or moral character for ethos), and the rhetorical situation associated with that appeal in your ad.
Begin identifying and explaining the examples of the appeals using the system on the Pre-Writing Worksheet.
Writing — Drafting:
Create transition sentences for your body paragraphs. Transition sentences should use the ½ and ½ formula and clearly tell your readers how one appeal connects to the other. This is why it is important to figure out the reason for the order of the appeals early on, such as most to least used appeal. The transition sentence in your final body paragraph should be more of an overall ending sentence that wraps up all three ideas in one because it is transitioning your readers into your conclusion.
Write your introduction. Since you already have your thesis statement, all you need to create is your hook and background information. The hook can be anywhere from 1-3 sentences and should grab your readers’ attention. Try a relevant quote from the ad (such as the slogan) or ask your readers a question or series of questions. You may need a sentence that connects your hook to your background information. Background information should be a minimum of 3 sentences and should give your readers context about the ad. When was the ad published? Why does that make sense or matter? Where was it published? Why does that make sense or matter? What was going on in the world when this was published that could affect how this ad affected the audience? For example, if a lemonade ad was in the July issue of a food magazine, that would make sense because it’s hot in July, so people cool down with a cold drink like lemonade. Since lemonade is a beverage, it makes sense that it’s in a food magazine. Remember that VRA is all about stating the obvious.
Write your conclusion. First, restate your thesis using the opposite sentence structure. This means that instead of ending with the appeals, the sentence should start with them. Next, write your review/recap. This should be three sentences total: one sentence summary for each body paragraph (not including the descriptive paragraph, just the analysis paragraphs). This is sort of like the “here’s a reminder of what we learned today in class, everyone.” Then, answer the question “So What?” Why does this ad matter to your readers? Or why should it matter to them? This is usually only a sentence or two. Finally, end with a bang sentence. This is usually only one sentence and should connect back to your hook from the introduction so that your essay comes full circle. If you started with a quote, try paraphrasing it with your own spin or play on words. If you asked a question or series of questions, try asking them again in a different way. Perhaps your readers’ answers to those questions have changed since they’ve read your essay. Remember not to advertise the product yourself; stay objective!
Post-Writing — Revising & Editing:
Format your paper into proper MLA. Watch the instructional video on Blackboard for how to do this.

Throughout the course we will discuss the biopsychosocial perspective, which suggests that human development emerges through complex transactions between biological, psychological, and social forces over time. Social workers who are able to integrate this dynamic perspective into the way they analyze human conditions and social problems will be better equipped to promote the welfare of their clients and client systems.

Becoming a skilled social worker also requires cultivating awareness of forces that have contributed to your development and that guide your behavior. This exercise offers you the opportunity to examine two (2) factors that have had a profound impact on you. These factors may include people, environmental forces, personal conditions, experiences, etc. Applying the biopsychosocial model, please explain how each factor has influenced your development over time.

Then analyze how each factor has had an impact on:

(a) your interest in a particular social problem and/or client population, and

(b) your potential effectiveness as a professional.

This is NOT intended to be merely a personal account of your history. It is an analytic exercise that asks you to make thoughtful connections between your experiences and your development. You are encouraged to integrate what you have learned during the course into your analysis. The instructor will make every effort to maintain the confidentiality of your work.

Your paper will be evaluated on the following criteria:

Content—Addresses the assignment criteria (20%)
Execution—Depth of critical thought & insight (50%)
Organization—Logical structuring and sequencing of thoughts and ideas (15%)
Style—Clarity, mechanics, & persuasiveness of writing (15%)
Papers must be 5-6 pages in length (no title page). Papers must be typewritten Microsoft Word or the equivalent. No .pdf files, please! Please double space and use 12-point Times New Roman font (or 11-point Arial) and 1” margins. Papers should be submitted via Canvas by the deadline.

This task involves writing a popular science article on a social issue. Students are expected to choose a social issue related to climate change.
Students are expected to use the linguistic and discursive features common in popular science writing covering the particular topic chosen. The focus of this assessment is on the appropriateness of the language used and the style of writing.
Students should use at least 10 academic citations and use APA style for both in-text citations and the reference list at the end of the article.

For this case, you are to take the role of the CFO, Ana Andueza. As Ms. Andueza, prepare a report for the CEO Lisa Sedlar as to what you as the CFO recommend that she do.
Note: The case briefly mentions MACRS (page 8). MACRS is the American version of Capital Cost Allowance (CCA). You do not need to use this for your analysis, and can simply assume straight line depreciation.
