Explain some of the tensions and limitations of this writing community: do some members demand or disapprove of certain language use?
Below are the instructions from the instructor of the course. I’ve attached PDF copies of the pages referenced as materials that can be used as sources or for help.
Purpose
An effective way to engage with the topic of writing is to consider how writing matters in various communities on a daily basis. This paper provides the chance to reflect in a personal way about a writing community you successfully joined by learning how to use the language and reasoning skills of that community. By using personal experiences and anecdotes, you will trace your movement from an outsider to an insider in a particular community. Examples of writing communities include a specific workplace, a sports team, a church community, a social or college club, a different country and language, a specific discussion forum–online or in-person.
Task
Write a 3-5 page personal narrative that explores a particular writing community that you are very familiar with and that you feel comfortable discussing with your peers. This writing community should be one that you have chosen, rather than one you were born into. Pick a clear writing community, explain and analyze the writing community’s specific language practices and value system, and show readers that you have become a full member of this community by learning those language practices. Follow these specific steps:
1. Include a main point or take-away (thesis) in the beginning of your essay to clearly indicate to readers what the essay is about and what overall point you wish to make.
2. Identify the community’s specific reasoning (logos), its values and emotions (pathos) and explain how you built your credibility (ethos) as a new community member.
3. Explain some of the tensions and limitations of this writing community: do some members demand or disapprove of certain language use?
4. Use what cultural anthropologist Clifford Geertz calls “thick description” in your essay to identify a particular setting, mood, and people’s characteristics (names, ages, etc.). Show, rather than tell, by using sensory details in your own writing that cue readers to visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile, and kinesthetic aspects.
5. Highlight one or two particular incidents (anecdotes) in which the community’s language practices are nicely evident.
6. You may use quotes from individuals of this community, or from texts the community uses. Make sure to integrate such quotes into your essay.
7. Your audience are your peers and myself, your instructor. Thus, tailor the language of your essay to us, your real audience, and use a style that is distinctly your own.
How You Will Be Graded
The Thinking about Writing Communities essay will be graded according to the following criteria:
· 3-5 pages (double-spaced)
· Selection of an interesting and suitable community
· Analysis of writing community’s language practices by concise and accurate identification of logos, ethos, and pathos
· Inclusion of specific anecdotes, using “thick description” to elaborate on events
· Evidence (in the form of examples/anecdotes) that support a clearly articulated main take-away (thesis)
· Use of persuasion and creativity to effectively convey the overall point
· Careful paragraph organization that creates cohesive overall structure
· Accuracy in formatting, grammar, spelling, and mechanics

Finally, weigh in on Washington’s decision: do you think Washington’s actions were appropriate? Discuss why or why not, and provide evidence from the primary and secondary texts to support your arguments.
Stronger posts will show familiarity with all texts and support claims with evidence from the sources, while weaker essays will be overly general and fail to support arguments with evidence.

Vignette: Fatima, a 22-year-old bank teller, comes in to see you at a community mental health center where you are a case manager, following an armed robbery at the bank. She is experiencing heart palpitations, poor appetite, and difficulty sleeping. She appears agitated and is tearful in the meeting with you. She has not been able to go to work since the robbery. Fatima shares with you that her boyfriend is becoming increasingly worried about her, and he is the one who convinced her to come to see you. She says, although he says he is supportive of her, she feels like he is pulling away from her. When asked about her family of origin, Fatima says she comes from a devout Muslim family and her mother died three years ago in a car accident. She has a younger sister and brother who live in Minnesota with her father. She says she has a close relationship with her father. After the session, her father calls and is concerned how Fatima is doing in therapy.

What is the relationship between technology and freedom in your opinion?
This section of the book is called “The Sin of Height.” In this section, Barnes writes “Ballooning represented freedom–yet a freedom subservient to the powers of wind and weather. Aeronauts often couldn’t tell if they were moving or stationary, gaining height or losing it.”
Read the pages and answer the following questions:
– What does this passage make you think about?
– What is the relationship between technology and freedom in your opinion?
– Additionally, what do you make of freeing technology that has many parts still being figured out?
– What does this remind you of in terms of modern-day technology?

Please turn it in on time to avoid losing points. You have a “grace” period after the deadline (losing points however) but when that’s over, you can’t turn it in at all. Turn it in exactly as called for in the syllabus unless this instruction makes adjustments. Check the syllabus to see how to do the header. Put your name on every page. Do not depend on Canvas to do that. Do NOT submit as a PDF. Good Luck! (Note that the harder you study, the luckier you get.)
Dealing with Irritating Business Jargon and More on Conquering MS Word Software Tools
Business people, like squeaky-voiced 13 year old* “California girls,” often pick up and repeat jargon that doesn’t result in good business communication. In most business settings, successful people speak and write carefully, even when texting and when using abbreviations.
Business writing is more effective when writers avoid overused phrases that others find annoying, useless, pretentious or just odd. There are many articles about this problem and how inappropriate jargon leaves many readers and listeners confused or unclear on the message, especially when it is not the reader’s first language. As business becomes more global, we need to be aware that people in other counties who have learned proper English often don’t have an understanding of some of these “sayings.”
You are to consider the following phrases, re-type them, and briefly explain what each really means, but in your own words. Use your own definition, even if you look it up on the internet, a dictionary or thesaurus. Do not merely re-write the definition you find on the internet. No points will be given for merely copying from a dictionary. Google may be helpful, but use several sources so you clearly know what you’re talking about. Copying from a website may get you in trouble.
One page should be ample, but do not exceed two pages. 11 point sans-serif typeface, Follow syllabus instructions for format. Make sure your heading is single spaced 1.0 line spacing and complete (see syllabus), single space your answers with 1.5 line spacing, no space after a paragraph and no spacing before a paragraph, number your answers, and do not skip a line between the answers. Be sure numbering doesn’t spoil your left margin requirement.
