You will submit an essay, covering materials read. You will cover at least one of the major readings that we discussed in class during this period; you are welcome to include more than one, in order to take a compare/contrast approach, or to relate these readings to other works
All essays should follow MLA format in terms of page layout, header, no cover page, et cetera, as well as any citations. This goes for the readings themselves, what we call the Primary Source, but doubly so if you make direct reference to any outside article, film, or any other work. You MUST include a citation at the end. All direct textual references to a work WITHIN your essay must include a proper, parenthetical in-text citation. On that note, I would strongly recommend making abundant use of quotes, as they demonstrate that you are truly engaging with and comprehending the works we cover.
As for content, every essay must have a strong central thesis or idea, uniting every other aspect that you discuss.
Find something of merit to tell me about how these works reflect our times or the times in which they were written.
The golden rule is: don’t just summarize. I already know what happens in the story, but what I don’t know is your perspective on it. A bit of plot synopsis is fine, but these essays should be 15% synopsis, 85% analysis, if even that much.
Regarding titles: all short works or component works of larger collection should be given in “quotes”, i.e., “The Raven.” All longer works or titles of compilations are given in italics, i.e., Blood Meridian.
Write a 3-4 page paper in which you:
1. Discuss at least three rationales for performing an information systems security risk assessment.

3. Describe the type of information that is collected to perform an effective information systems security risk assessment. Include at least three different types. Fully describe each and justify why you made your selections.
4. Describe at least five common tasks that should be performed in an information systems security risk assessment.
5. Use at least two quality resources in this assignment.
Write a 1,000-word paper reviewing the assigned book. Chicago format, double-spaced, 12 point font. I do not have a copy of the book.
Use the following criteria:
Opening Paragraph (or two)
Introduce the book, what it’s about, what it’s like, and the main theme for your paper.
Opening Sentence. Your opening sentence should include the title of the book, the author, and publication date.
Summarize the book very briefly. What is the book about? What time period, event, controversy, person, etc. does it cover? This can be done with a statement of “what and how” about the book. (For example: In his allegorical novel, Lord of the Flies, William Golding writes about [what?] the evil side of man [how?] by describing what happens to a group of young boys who are marooned on a desert island.)
Use a passage from the book and follow it with a comment on how this quotation is typical of what is contained in the book.
Author Info. You can present information about the author and his or her background, qualifications, or philosophy.
Theme/Thesis. Finally, state your specific theme. (Example: Nancy Shoemaker argues that Native American women adapted their cultural tradition and gender roles to seek power in Euro-American society.) What do you think is the main thesis of the book? What is the author’s main argument? What main point do you think the author is trying to get across? (Hint: The author’s thesis is usually stated in the introduction or preface to the book.)
State Three Points. State the three points you will address as the topic for your body paragraphs.
Body (Three paragraphs)
Use the following pattern two—three times:
State. State an idea about your theme clearly (generalization). (Example: “The Pima and Maricopa women of the Salt River Community were empowered through involvement.)
Support. Support each of your generalizations with specific details from the story (evidence). (Example: As Hoikkala states, “Pima-Maricopa women’s responses to their work… attested to a significant change in their attitudes about themselves and the community.” (225)) Include page numbers in parentheses after quoting the author or citing an example. You do not need to include the author’s name since you will only be dealing with one source.
Interpret. Explain how each of these specific details proves your point (interpretation). (Example: The positive reaction of the women of this tribe shows how involvement through work empowered the Salt River women.)
Success Paragraph(s)
Evaluate the book writing a paragraph or two about the following points:
Does the author succeed in proving the stated thesis/theme? Support your answer with examples or quotes.
Is this book convincing to you? Did you enjoy it? Was it helpful to understand the topic of the book? Support your answer with examples or quotes.
What are the holes or problems in the author’s book? What does the author overlook or not prove? Support your answer with examples or quotes.
Conclusion
Sum up your paper with a paragraph or two.
Focus. Bring your theme into final focus for the reader. This can be done by restating the original theme/thesis that you started with in the beginning paragraphs.
Conclude. Arrive at a specific conclusion about your theme, or about the author’s purpose, or about the overall effectiveness of the book.
Citation
After the end of your paper, cite the book you reviewed in the complete Chicago format. (Consult a style manual (Links to an external site.) for citation help.)
The author’s name, last name first
The title and subtitle, italicized
The place of publication, the publisher, and date

Create a 12-15 slide PowerPoint presentation in which you
address the ethical and legal application in the following scenario:
Scenario
You are a hospital administrator who has been told by your
ICU unit director of a patient in the unit who has suffered serious brain
damage from a car accident 2 days ago and is currently intubated. The patient
is 45 years old but does not currently meet the criteria for complete brain
death as defined by Arizona state legislature “4-1107. Determination of
Death and Status; Rules.” The spouse of the patient has consulted with the
attending physician. The attending physician informed the spouse that the
patient could survive but would likely require life support. Half of the family
is insisting that the patient “wouldn’t want to live this way” and
the other half is accusing the other family members of wanting to
“kill” the patient. Some allegations have been raised about a
substantial inheritance for some family members upon the patient’s death. The
battle is becoming intense, and it is beginning to disrupt the medical and
nursing staff.

500 word essay:
1. Which character is worse, morally, in the Philoctetes: Odysseus or Neoptolemus, and why?
You must provide Works Cited. You may use the following format only if you consulted these books. If you used different translations, you must cite those. Please do not cut-and-paste. For full credit, just re-type the works cited so that you are guaranteed consistent formatting. Include James Boyd White if you quote him or if you rely on his ideas.
If you use White, here are some examples of in-text citations:
This is a sentence in your paper that says something about not treating people as a “means to an end” (White, 5).
In this sentence, you are talking about how Odysseus skillfully shatters Neoptolemus’ sense of himself (White, 10).
So essentially, in text citations = (Last name, page number)
