Option #1: Analysis of an Individual Comic Strip or Political Cartoon

Choose one comic strip or political cartoon. If you visit the website of a newspaper such as The Baltimore Sun, The New York Times, The Washington Post, etc., you should be able to search for comic strips or political cartoons easily.
Which techniques does the creator of the comic strip use? How does the creator make his/her point in the comic strip? What do we learn about the characters and/or ourselves from this comic strip or political cartoon? If colors are available, what do they tell us about this comic or cartoon? What language is used and how can that be interpreted?
And importantly, which of the key terms from the topic lesson can you discuss in your analysis? For example, how of elements of imagery, symbolism, metaphor, and/or irony help reveal the cartoon’s message?

In essence, what are some of the physical elements present in the cartoon1 – characters, text, colors, etc., along with figurative elements such as metaphor and symbolism, that help to explain the cartoon’s message? It can be helpful to focus on a single element in the cartoon in its own body paragraph (including the element in the topic sentence and in the thesis) and describe how it portrays the cartoon’s message before moving to the next cartoon feature in a new paragraph.
Sample Thesis Statement: “John Smith uses (add one element from the cartoon), (add a second element from the cartoon), and (add a third element from the cartoon) to show (add the cartoon’s message).”

Workers’ compensation is the only means for workers to be able to support their families monetarily during the time of injury, which sometimes may be for a few months to a few years.
Many workers across America have had a negative, perhaps even slightly hostile, experience with workers’ compensation and have had the need to dispute certain aspects such as compensation, medical bill payment, and level of disability rating among other issues.
For this assignment, write an essay describing the benefit of the dispute process for the state that you live and/or work in.
Think about these questions when writing your essay:
Why is the dispute process even needed?
What are common causes of injured workers disputing the level of benefits or compensation?
What are the workers’ rights and responsibilities when dealing with disputes? · What is the root cause of disputes?
Is it a basic viewpoint of the accident situation in general, or is it a lack of communication, or inaccurate communication
between many different groups?
How does the dispute process fit into the claims management process?
Your essay should be a minimum of five pages. At a minimum, the resources you identified in your Unit IV annotated bibliography should be used in your paper. The annotated bibliography itself will not be included as a part of the assignment, just the resources you identified. All sources used, including your textbook, must be cited and referenced following APA
guidelines, and your essay should be formatted in APA style to include a title page and reference page.
NOTE: Much of the dispute process may be reviewed on your state’s web page. Remember, the assignment is to show the
perceived benefits of the dispute process, not the actual description or purpose of the process.
Information about accessing the grading rubric for this assignment is provided below.
The state to be used is Texas

Please address the following:

  • Go to The World Factbook and review the countries listed. Select one country on which to base your discussion posts and written assignments throughout the course. The country you choose should have special meaning for you and/or be one that you are interested in learning more about.
    • Once you choose a country, you will not be able to change it, so give it some careful consideration. Only one student per country!
  • Explain why you chose this particular country. Why is it important to you (e.g., nationality, origin, and travel experience)? Paraphrasing the CIA World Factbook or other reference, describe your country by giving a brief background of its location, a demographic profile that includes population and age structure, and a brief economic overview from 2013 to today.
