Assignment Question

In Assignment 7, you write one of the three required major essays for Communication 202.

Your Task: Your specific task is to write an essay reporting your efforts to find evidence of facilitative communicative acts in the recorded history of a group of people who worked on a project that eventually turned out to be highly successful. Describe and analyze 5 acts from the article by Raffi Khatchadourian, “We Know How You Feel,” that could be facilitative communicative acts that demonstrate why or how the team was successful.

Note also that in addition to using your skills at reading and judgment, the task invites you to use your previous learnings from this course on meta-communicative terms and context.

Examples There are 10 pages to the article; one of them is a full-page photo. This means that you have 9 pages of descriptive history to scour. To scour for what? To scour for reports by the author of something someone did, specifically reports by the author of someone’s communicative act. Example 1 For example, on the first page of the article (page 50) in the far right column and the first full paragraph, there is the bit of description that reads “…she [Kaliouby] walked me past charts of facial expressions” (50).

That piece of descriptive information contains a description of at least one act: Kaliouby walked. Or it could be stated as: Kaliouby walked Katchadourian past charts of facial expressions… (50).

That is a different act. It is just such bits of description that are available to you for the essay. What would you make of the two bits of description I mentioned in the immediately preceding paragraph? Perhaps not much. You might skip over that, thinking that there will be some more obvious examples of communicative acts and facilitative communicative acts farther into the article. I tend to agree with you on that judgment. I chose this example only because it is the first or one of the first actions by Kaliouby, one player in this story that appears in the article. Example 2 In the very next paragraph of the article, the paragraph that begins with “Affectiva is the most…,” there is the statement by the author, on line 4 of the paragraph, that reads “she told me” and this is, to me, an obvious instance of a communicative act because it contains the expression “she told.” This probably isn’t a good candidate for a facilitative communicative act, though, because the telling is simply a matter of saying something to an investigative reporter, and not of saying (or telling) something to a participant in the unfolding drama of the work team’s work and accomplishments. A facilitative communicative act is, by definition, something that might help interacting people to achieve something together. In this case, Kaliouby’s act of telling something to Katchadourian might have helped him get material for his interview, but it seems unlikely that her act in that interaction had anything to do with Kaliouby’s team succeeding at their project. Example 3 On page 53, in the left-hand column, first full paragraph, there is a statement that Kaliouby agreed to sit on the floor, for an interview that might help her get a job that would help her in her long-range project, and that if she had refused to do the sitting-on-the-floor interview her interview would have to be postponed. Her act of sitting on the floor might have been a consequential act for her, as is evidenced by the story as it is told further on page 53. But was it a communicative act? And was it a facilitative act? Laura Crowell says that people sitting together signifies something and in Lesson 6 I treated that as a facilitative communicative act, and in Lesson 6 gave my reason for considering it such. Was I right? You be the judge. Should Kaliouby’s sitting (as reported on page 53) be considered an FCA? I think it’s an open question, and would say, it depends. If you think it is, and you want to use that as an example of an FCA, I’d say, give it a try. Its success would depend on how well you justify it. Analysis I have gone on at length here with some examples of actions reported in “We Know How You Feel,” because I wanted to show you how to go about doing your work for Assignment 7.

As I think you can tell from what I have written, the task of finding candidates for an FCA is possible to do and it requires careful reading and focused thinking and analysis. It also invites (and requires) you to use your reading skills and your judgment skills. Now let’s circle back and re-consider each of the examples I presented (see Examples tab), and I’ll give a summary comment on why they might or might not be candidates for a facilitative communicative act in the life of Kaliouby’s innovation team. What you see immediately below is not a finished write-up but rather notes toward a finished write-up: Example 1 (1) “she walked” (50) refers to the fact that Kaliouby walked. To walk is an action on Kaliouby’s part. It is not, however, a communicative action. It is not, therefore, a facilitative communicative act. Therefore, Kaliouby walked does not make the cut. Example 2 (2) “she walked me past charts of facial expressions” (50) refers to Kaliouby walking the journalist, Katchadourian, past some of the research materials Kaliouby and her team were working on. That Kaliouby walked Katchadourian past some materials the team was working on might have been an intentional act by which she could convey something to Katchadourian, do you think? Maybe so. So maybe this was a candidate for a communicative act and one that facilitated a journalist getting some information with which he could write a report about Kaliouby’s team. So, this walking him past materials might have been a communicative act. That possibly communicative act might have helped Katchadourian write his article and thus it might have facilitated the journalist’s writing something about the team. But this happened after the team had already had big successes, so it seems that, even though the walking him by something might be a communicative act, and it might have facilitated something, it might not be a facilitative communicative act in the context of the team trying to make an important discovery. Therefore Kaliouby’s walking Katchadourian past the materials does not make the cut as an FCA in this case. Example 3 (3) Kaliouby sat on the floor for an interview with “the guy who interviewed” her for a job at a tech startup (53). Is sitting on the floor for an interview a facilitative communicative act? When I first read this, it didn’t occur to me to consider it as an FCA candidate. I was looking for something more obvious and, frankly, something more verbal. But when I worked on this assignment, and re-read Katchadourian’s article (yet again), and shortly after re-reading Crowell’s essay (for the umpteenth time) with its “the leader sits among” phrase, I did a double-take on Kaliouby’s sitting. Her sitting was consequential because her interview that day “made an impression on one of the company’s founders” (53) and that led to a whole series of consequential consequences. So her sitting on the floor was consequential and possibly an FCA because of that. Nonetheless, it isn’t quite communicative enough for me, but I might be wrong. I think there are more obvious examples of FCAs in the story and so I’d pass this one by. But in this context, sitting on the floor when invited to do so might appear to you to be a good candidate for FCA. Advice In the previous three examples, I have tried to give you some examples of how you might work as you scour the article for facilitative communicative act candidates. As you can see, I consider this process a process of reading very closely and very carefully, of making judgments, of trying to justify decisions, and of trying to explain why you nominate something as an FCA. In my opinion, I have left the best candidates for you! Happy searching! Hints Look for meta-communicative terms as signals for FCA. Consider the context of the act. Did it involve the team? Did it lead to success? Analyze the reported dialogue. Is the leader doing anything specific? Is there team energy, engagement, or exploration?

Essay Parts: Write an essay about facilitative communicative acts that you have found in the story of successful discovery that is presented in the article “We Know How You Feel.” The main part of your essay should nominate five acts from the article that you judge to be facilitative communicative acts. For each of these five candidates you should: find the candidate for the status of facilitative communicative act in the article’s description of the project name and describe the candidate as a facilitative communicative act explain why you think the candidate should be considered a facilitative communicative act indicate through quotation marks the words you have taken from the article and from which you create the candidate. In addition to finding and explaining five types of FCAs, you should also write an introductory paragraph and one or two concluding paragraphs.

The concluding paragraph should do one or more of the following: (1) compare and contrast the various FCA candidates you have formulated, (2) describe your thought processes about how you found, named, and explained these candidates, (3) discuss the value to you as a practical communicator of thinking in this way about FCAs. Each FCA candidate can be nominated in one or two paragraphs. The introductory paragraph should be about 100 words and the concluding paragraph about 200 words. General guidelines 1,250 to 1,500 words. You should make extensive use of words and phrases from the article assigned for the Lesson. The quoted material should be should be short quotations that report terms and phrases, not long passages. The essay should demonstrate concretely your mastery of the key analytic terms and concepts of the Lesson. The essay should provide explicit reasoning as to why you think each FCA candidate meets the requirements of an FCA. The essay should be written, with complete sentences, correct spelling, and correct grammar. The essay counts 20 points toward your course grade.

Assignment Question

Instructions: The Dietary Analysis Project is an assignment where you will keep track of your dietary intake by creating a food diary over the course of part of one week (3 concurrent days, can be any three days though I think typical busy days offer a more realistic picture of eating habits than free days/no work/no school etc..) It is a bit like your first assignment but more in depth. You need to make a copy of this food diary on a word program so that you can turn it in along with the rest of the assignment. I have a sample paper linked here, don’t worry about writing a paper just like this one, this is here just to help you see one way of doing this assignment. Also a few things to mention about this sample paper 1) she covers a whole week because I used to ask students to do a whole week 2) the analysis from the website and diary are not included (she turned those in separate documents) 3) 130 grams of carbohydrate daily is a minimum, not a maximum, this is one significant mistake she makes (though overall the paper is great) so I just mention so that you don’t assume everything she wrote is perfect. Ok on to what is expected: 1) You will keep a detailed food diary indicating when you eat ( estimate the time), what you eat, and the estimated or exact portion size. Refer to the portion size information in chapter 2, page 47 – to recieve full credit all assignments must include references to the portion size information (understanding that a baseball is about the size of 1 cup, which is the serving size for such and such cereal or that a deck of cards is the same size as a 3 ounce portion of meat), if do not see references to portion sizes I will mark down this portion of the assignment. 2) After you are done, you will input this information into a website designed to analyze how well your intake compares to the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI), RDA, or Daily Values. Do this daily so you don’t spend hours inputting at weeks end, there is no way to be accurate unless it is done daily. (Can you accurately recall everything you ate yesterday or two day’s ago? No, you need to notate this information daily). Your textbook comes with analysis software that will enable you to do this or you can access other programs, such as www.fitday.com. After the program analyzes your intake you will take the results and summarize it in your own words. Attach the computer analysis to the assignment, but DO NOT give me a daily breakdown, give me the analysis over the entire 3 day period, the average of all days inputted. 3) You will need to comment on the following aspects of your diet (again, DO NOT do a day to day analysis, look at the big picture over the 3 days, though it is good to mention how the different days differed) 1. Overal Calorie intake (vs. “how many calories you really need”) -up to 4 points 2. carbohydrates (amount?, types?) -up to 4 points 3. protein (sources? amount?) -up to 4 points. 4. fats (sources, amount, good or bad fats?) – up to 4 points 5. Vitamin and mineral intake (up to 4 points) 6. Fiber (amount, types) – up to 4 points 7. What surprised you, what did you observe (trends, habits, processed foods, variety etc.) up to 4 points 8 How you can improve your diet and come closer to meeting the recommendations? (up to 4 points) 9 Dietary analysis: up to 9 points per day x 3 days (28 points) 10 Sodium (amount, did it exceed recomendations?) (up to 4 points) The written summary should be approximately 4 pages in length (that is in addition to the actual analysis info you submit). Also remember to turn in your original food diary!!! sample paper Sample Personal Dietary Analysis paper: This comes from a student in a past class, I post this to give you an idea, it doesn’t mean your paper will be like this one. Also remember there are other parts of the assignment (the diet diary, analysis etc…) that are not included in this sample; but of course you do need to do. Tracking my daily food intake is not new to me since I have followed Weight-Watcher’s in the past and keeping a food diary is a cornerstone of the program. However, the difference is Weight-Watcher’s food tracking was paper-based and I used www.fitday.comto analyze my food intake this time. I definitely loved the idea of using a computer-based program because within a few seconds of entering my data it provides me with clear a snapshot of my nutrition, not only statistically but also graphically. My total calorie intake for the average day is low when compared to RDA values (Recommended Dietary Allowance) and that is the plan I have been following since my brief Personal Evaluation in week two. I was overweight, 145 pounds, at the time and I started following a 1500-calorie diet knowing that my RDA is around 2000 calories. This 500 calorie/day deficit allows me to lose one pound/ week without affecting my BMR (Basal Metabolic rate) significantly or depriving me of food. Today I am pleased to write that I weigh 133 pounds, which means I lost 12 pounds in 12 weeks! In the case of daily carbohydrate consumption, it is the exact opposite of caloric consumption. The recommended RDA for carbohydrates for me is 135 grams/day while I am eating an astonishing average of 240 grams/day of carbs, while some days topping to 266g/day, which is 200% of the RDA! I had a false belief that as far as I was following AMDR (Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range), I would be eating a balanced diet. However, that was not the case. I am consuming 63% carbohydrates according to AMDR, but I am almost at 200% compared to RDA. Finally, I recalled the difference between RDA and AMDR from reading chapter 3 in the textbook. I am on the upper end for the carbohydrates intake of AMDR, which is a percentage of total energy intake and the top numbers of the range associated with chronic diseases. On the other hand, RDA is the standard for intake of nutrients and meets the needs of 98% of the individuals. I did not use % DV (Daily Value) to compare my nutrition intake because it is based on a 2000 calorie diet not the 1500 calorie diet. The good thing is the most part of carbohydrate intake is from complex carbohydrates like grain, legumes and vegetables while the small part comes from fruits and added sugar. Thanks to the sugar intake assignment, I seldom drink soda now because every time I see soda I see a pile of sugar and stop myself from grabbing it. In my diet, protein accounts for average 14% of AMDR, which is in the lower end of AMDR range of 10%- 35% for normal healthy person. RDA for protein is 0.8 g/kg/day, which is around 48 g/day for my weight. During this week, my protein consumption was in range of the 45g/day to 64g/day averaging to 53.8 g/per day. Low fat dairy products, legumes, nuts, beans and lentils provide me with the protein. Being a vegetarian, milk and dairy product are my sole source of complete protein; however, I try to include complementary proteins like beans and rice in my diet. Honestly, I am quite happy with my protein analysis because my protein intake was quite low during the brief personal analysis, which is one of the pit falls for being a vegetarian. However, since then I learned to include protein when I plan the menus, and I succeeded. Although there is no RDA for the fat, my consumption of fat represents at 24% of AMDR, which is within the acceptable range of total fat of AMDR, 20% to 35% of total calories. My average total fat intake is perfectly fine at average 41g/ day, which should be somewhere 33g/day to 58 g/day according to calculated AMDR. Saturated fat intake should be less than 10% of total calories, that is less than 16 g/day and my intake was 11.3 gram/day, so I was within the accepted range. Most of my saturated fat comes from milk products even though I consume fat-free or 1% dairy products. Out of 41 grams, the rest of 30 grams of fat is polysaturated whereas monosaturated “good” fat comes from nuts, beans, canola oil and olive oil. I added walnuts and flaxseed (grounded) to my diet to obtain Omega-3. My cholesterol intake was low, at a mere 50 mg whereas the recommend limit is 300 mg/per day. The next nutrient intake to be analyzed is my fiber intake. The recommended AI, Adequate Intake, for fiber, is 38g/day for a man and 25g/day for a woman, of which the latter applies to me. My fiber intake was at the 100% of AI level at 25g/day for women of my age. However, it is not a big surprise, being a vegetarian, that the food that provided me with fiber was the fresh fruits, vegetables, beans and legumes. Insoluble fiber comes from wheat, rice and vegetables, while the sources of soluble fiber are oatmeal, apple, banana, peach, prune, dates, beans and nuts. For the most part, I am receiving adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals. The only vitamins and minerals I am constantly lacking in throughout the week are vitamin E at 40% of the RDA, vitamin C at 58% of the RDA, vitamin D at 24% of the RDA and the mineral Iron at 78% of RDA. On the other hand, the mineral sodium is first on the list to cut back as I consumed an average 200% of RDA sodium daily. I generally do not add salt to my food, but I observed that processed foods and fat free versions of foods like low fat cheese are main culprits of having excess salt. I need to be more cautious about reading the labels when grocery shopping and should opt for low-sodium or sodium-free food. I chose to track my diet from Tuesday, November 1 to Monday, November 7 because I was off work that weekend. I work 12 hours on a weekend night shift, which makes it hard for me to decide which meal I am consuming, breakfast, lunch or dinner. During the weekdays, my day starts with late breakfast around 10 am because of my disturbed circadian clock. I have lunch by 1:00 pm and dinner around 6:00 pm with my family. I consume a snack or two in between meals, drink 8-10 glasses of water and refrain from drinking juice, soft drinks or alcohol. The first day I kept having to remind myself to jot down my foods in the food diary, but then it came naturally. I consumed 1726 calories on Tuesday, which is around 200 more calories than my budget of 1500 calories. My breakfast includes tea, milk and cereal; for lunch, I had salad, soup, and a burrito for dinner. The worst part about my diet for the day was my 291-gram carbs, which is high for the RDA and the AMDR. My fat was up to 19% and protein was up to 14% with dietary fiber around 36g. However, the next day there was a small improvement in my carb intake to 237 gram with 1525 total calories consumed. My fat consumption was 27 % of the AMDR and my protein intake was low at 12% of the AMDR. My salt intake was up to 145% of the RDA, but I had potato chips with a veggie wrap for lunch and tortilla chips with rice/beans for dinner, so it was not very surprising. However, my breakfast was healthy with tea and milk and cereal as usual. The dietary analysis turned out the same for the third day, Thursday, was almost the same as the previous two days with a high carb intake at 246 grams, which is 190% of the RDA and 65% of the AMDR. My total calorie intake was 1493, which was within the recommendation of a 1500-calorie diet. The breakfast was a regular whole wheat bagel with raisins, tea and milk, while lunch was a grilled cheese sandwich with low-fat strawberry yogurt. Once again, my sodium intake was high at 170% of the RDA, which can be blamed on my dinner of Chinese fried rice and lo-Mein, a no- brainer! On the fourth day of my diet analysis, I suddenly realized I was following a trend: high carbs, high sodium, and within range of fats and protein with a 1500-calorie diet. I made oatmeal for breakfast with tea and milk, lunch was vegetable baked beans, and for dinner, I had pizza. Friday is pizza night, but the pizzas are home made with low-fat cheese and vegetable toppings. However, no matter what I ate, Chinese, Italian, or Mexican my diet analysis ended up pretty much the same. I consumed 188% carb of the RDA and a mind-blowing 232% of the sodium of RDA. Fat intake was 23% of the AMDR and protein intake was 17% of the AMDR with a total 1545 calories/day. Saturday, the fifth day, I decided to tweak my diet with hopes of curbing my carbohydrate and sodium intake, so I cooked an Indian dish for dinner: sprouted mug beans with wild rice. I went out shopping after my breakfast of tea and milk and cereal. I snack on dried prunes (to help with constipation) and a dried fruit and nut mix. I grabbed tortilla chips and cheese from taco bell for lunch. A healthy dinner helped me to do better with my sodium and protein, which is 64% of the RDA and 123% of the RDA respectively; However, I again consumed 186% of the RDA for carbohydrates with a total 1458 calories/day! Sunday, the sixth day of my diet tracking, started with the usual breakfast of a bowl of cereal with milk and a cup of Indian tea. I was busy with the house chores, so I grabbed some dates and crackers with cheese at lunchtime. My dinner was vegetable curry with rice and kidney bean salad. I did well with my protein and fiber consumption, which was 105% and, 145% of the RDA, however it was frustrating to see a high carb and sodium intake was again for the RDA, which was 200% and 165% of the RDA respectively. Finally, the last day of the food diary, I had a pumpkin muffin with tea and milk for breakfast. I grabbed some peanuts, one banana and a low-fat blueberry yogurt at lunch. I prepared a rice-vegetable medley for dinner. I consumed a total 1443 calories, which comprised of 214-grams of carbohydrates (166% of RDA), 44.8-grams of protein (97% of RDA) and 48.4-grams of total fat (29% of AMDR). Yet, nothing can beat my sodium intake, which was 202% of the RDA, a true silent killer! After having a better understanding of my diet and food consumption, I can definitely improve my diet in three ways: carbohydrate and protein consumption, vitamin intake for vitamin D, E, and C as well as mineral intake for iron and sodium. For a balanced intake of macronutrients, I need to decrease the carbohydrate consumption and increase the protein intake because my carbohydrates are in upper range (45% to 65%) to 63% of the AMDR while my protein intake is 14% of the AMDR in the lower end of the range (10% to 35%). As I am lacto- ovo -vegetarian, I am planning to include eggs in my breakfast that will increase my total protein intake as well complete proteins, which I totally lack in my diet. For my vitamin C intake, I will include more variety of fruits including citrus fruits. For vitamin D, I need to add some food fortified with vitamin D, such as milk, and cereal. In addition, the analysis software does not take sun exposure in to account, so that is another source to obtain vitamin D. Normally, I like nuts and seeds and get enough vitamin E from that, but the only problem is the high calories associated with them. Right now, I am trying to stay in negative energy balance to reduce my weight so I consume nuts sparingly. Once I am up to my optimum weight, I can include more nuts, seeds, and oil in my diet. In addition, vitamin D and vitamin E are fat-soluble vitamin, so I am sure I have enough fat in storage for a while and I am not in imminent danger of any deficiency. From the class I learned that the intestinal track absorbs more of the heme iron than nonheme iron and my diet only contains nonheme iron, so I am at a disadvantage to start with. However, I can correct this deficiency by consuming vitamin C rich foods with vegetables that have a good amount of iron to increase the nonheme iron absorption such as spinach with tomato. In addition iron fortified food or cereal is also a source of iron that I can include in my diet to prevent iron-deficiency anemia. What surprises me the most about my diet is my carbohydrate intake. I used to keep a log of my food in the past by calorie intake and by a point system (Weight Watcher’s), but I would never have realized that my carbohydrate intake was astonishingly up to 200% for the RDA without dietary analysis software. No wonder I kept gaining weight without well-balanced macronutrients! This nutritional analysis has provided me with a wonderful opportunity to look at my diet in a completely new light. It is my full intent to take in what I am learning in this class and apply it to my life for the better of my family and myself
