Things to be careful about on Summaries
Failing to adequately describe the research question and predictions that were made
Failing to adequately describe the task that were completed by participants
Failing to adequately describe how task performance was measured (dependent and independent variables)
Failing to adequately describe how task performance was interpreted to address the research questions
Things to be careful about on integrative discussion
:Must provide new and original insight that is not discussed by the authors
discussion only restates conclusions from each individual paper
discussion that fails to integrate or focus on superficial comparisons that are non-specific to the studies selected
“These findings should be replicated in older adults/ patients/ another demographic”
“These findings should be replicated with a larger sample size”
“One study looked at working memory and the other looked at long-term memory”
Discussion focuses overly on personal anecdotes and does not engage with the details of the research findings
“I agree with the author that taking tests is better for recall because(insert anecdote about school)
Discussion is underdeveloped by nature of an insufficient amount of writing
Discussion attempts to integrate the studies, but in doing so, inaccurately describes one or both of the findings in the selected papers to try and make the discussion make sense
Critiques of the study without proper justification or rationale
“Both papers did a good job”
I agree with the authors’ conclusion”
Over-reliance on cliches that are non-specific to the studies selected
“The brain is complex organ that is constantly processing information”
Please develop a short paragraph, submitted in a Word Doc that outlines the focus of your project from the options outlined.
the topic for the paper outline:
Identify a film that has a reboot and watch both versions.
Movie Selected:
Annie (1932, 1938, 1981, 1999, 2014)
Break the movies down using your own criteria but be sure to focus on the differences between the original and the remake to explain how concepts in our reading support or refute the changes that were made between versions. Focus on Cultural Studies focus as well as any
other theory that you want to align with our readings to support what was done as well as what should have been done between the two remakes to align with the popular culture which is shaped by the media. I’m not looking for a movie review. I’m looking for how the remake aligned or missed aligning with our culture at the time of the remake.
Some thoughts to consider:
To what extent is American culture presented as a dominant culture in the films–how did it align with culture at the time? Did the producer have to change the storyline because the original premise was no longer valid? If so how?
Be sure to use theories of media literacy and cultural studies as part of your analysis.

they should be in MLA format.
With the U.S. Supreme Court considering a high-profile case involving the prosecution of pregnant substance abusers, policymakers and advocates once again are confronted with the decade-old question of how best to deal with pregnant women who use drugs. State laws now vary considerably in their approach to the problem, reflecting a deep division in public opinion. For many lawmakers, the issue comes down to the difficult task of balancing a woman’s right to bodily integrity with society’s interest in ensuring healthy pregnancies, and the
question of whether punitive approaches will foster—or hinder—health outcomes for women and children.
Write a short essay (3 to 5 pages) on the impact of criminalization of the mother for fetal substance exposure. Should the mother be charged with criminal or civil offense(s)?
