1) The barriers I faced in writing is finding a topic I could write on. I over came this barrier by writing on a topic I am familiar with and that I am actually still learning about. With my topic being about diabetes and the fact that I am still getting through my first year of being diagnosed with this i am still learning about the different ways I need to take care of myself and the many different affect that it can still have on my body. I am happy with my topic I chose. The next I write a research paper I proof read my paper and let someone else different reread. I think I should let more and just me and sister proofread my paper. The people that read my paper I will be able able to get more feed back so I can know what how I can do better.

2) What barriers did you face regarding writing your research paper?

There were a few hurdles I experienced with my research paper. I think my topic was still too broad. There is so much information on the investment fundamentals for the novice investor.

How did you overcome these barriers? Are you happy with the topic you choose?

I was very selected with information; I wrote about the most important concepts. Overall, I am happy with the topic I chose because it is still very informative.

What was one interesting thing you learned during your research?

One exciting thing I learned during my research would be the 50/30/20 rule. I know Forbes magazine writes about saving/investing 20% of your income, but Senator Elizabeth Warren developed a theory.

What will you do differently the next time you have to write a research paper?

Next time I will be more prepared; my rough draft was not on track, but I think my final turned out the way I wanted.

Choose a relationship/family problem (you may want to return to the question you submitted at the beginning of the course). Please tell me what the issue you’ve chosen is. What are five sociological, community, religious, psychological or economic factors that predict the likelihood of this problem occurring? What are five factors that mitigate against the likelihood of this problem occurring? Why do you think these factors impact the relationship in this way?

Now thinking about the healthy version of this relationship, describe some of the important behavior dynamics (as shown by the research) and explain why (or why you think) these dynamics produce the positive outcomes. Provide evidence from this module (and any of the previous modules in the course) to support your argument. (Essay should be 2-3 pages)

1. (Suggested) Reread the text and/or re-watch the presentation.

2. In your own words, write a summary of the text, and response to both the article and Ted Talk, totaling between 500 + 750 words. Please do not exceed three double-spaced pages.

a. Your summary of the article (250-300 words) should demonstrate your ability to:

i. Introduce the rhetorical situation (title/author/speaker, audience, purpose).
ii. Write a topic sentence.
iii. Summarize a text’s main ideas in your own language/style while remaining objective.
iv. Give proper credit to an author with signal phrases, such as “The author explains….”
v. Create an MLA-style Works Cited entry.

b. Your response to the article and the Ted Talk (300-450 words) should state a focused opinion about the authors’ ideas + the subject matter they discuss. You may quote brief phrases if you wish with proper incorporation (in-text citations). Do not use any other sources outside of your chosen text and Ted Talk.

*Please make sure your essay is in doc/docx or pdf + formatted in MLA style to the best of your ability (not as picky about that on this first assignment if you’re missing an element of that style).

Your Name Semester/Year CRN 12156 

Do not put any identifying marks on subsequent pages.

WRITING INSTRUCTIONS: Select one of Michael Jackson’s songs to discuss and analyze from the perspective of aesthetic beauty. In other words, choose one of his song you found to be beautiful. You will want to be objective when discussing the stylistic aspects, and use those stylistic points to illustrate what about the piece you find aesthetically pleasing.Describe the composer or artist, the historical time frame that composer wrote in, and how it was composed within that historical time period. Your paper should consist of six (6) paragraphs, and address the following issues in this specific order: 

1. Identification: Name the song, the composer and performer, the approximate time period in which it was written, and the style. 

2. Consideration of context and the influence of assumptions: In what context was this example composed/performed/heard? What was happening historically at the time? What assumptions were made about this music at the time by the composer and audience, and what similar or different assumptions do you, and your contemporaries, make about this music today? 

3. Communication of your own perspective: State very clearly what it is about this example that you find aesthetically beautiful. You can consider the melody, the instrumentation and/or  sound quality of voice(s), the form of the piece, and the ambiance, or mood the piece creates for you as a listener.

4. Presentation of supporting evidence: Using the musical terminology you have learned this semester, describe the example appropriately to support your statement in paragraph 3.

5. Integration of your musical perspective with that of this musical style period: Reflect upon how you have been able to integrate this composer’s ideas about aesthetic beauty with your own ideas. How has your perspective been affected as a result of learning about this piece/composer/style? Has your perspective changed or remained the same? Do you have the same ideas about beauty that you had coming into this course, or have the possibilities been expanded?

6. Identification of your conclusions: What do you conclude about aesthetic beauty, overall, at the end of this process? What makes something beautiful? Explain what you found to be meaningful.
