Essay on Self-Analysis
Self–Analysis
Before taking this course my writing styles and habits were very different. I was the typical
procrastinator because I would wait until the night before a paper was due to start it. This did not
allow me enough time to properly proofread everything, which resulted in getting points deducted for
simple grammatical errors that could have been avoided if I would have had the time to proofread.
My writing styles have many strengths and weaknesses and I have been able to improve my writing
because of them. I have learned from my strengths and weaknesses how to become a better writer.
In my writing, I have many strengths, some that which I have developed through this course and
some that I already had. Before this...show more content...
I can write a thesis that will give an overview about what main topic of the paper is and what other
elements will be addressed in the paper. From taking this course I have been able to improve
many of my weaknesses, but there are still some that I need to work on. Overall I am becoming
better at not procrastinating as much as I used to. This class has helped me to learn to take the
little steps along the way because then there will not be as much work to do towards the end.
This has also made me realize that the final product of my writing will turn out better because it
will have had more time to develop, which means that there would have been more opportunities
to proofread. I think by learning many styles of writing, such as paraphrasing, summarizing,
analyzing, and researching; it has enabled me to be able to write more broadly. By knowing how
to correctly use all of these kinds of writing styles, it will help me in the future for other classes
because I will have the knowledge that I need to write these types of papers. I still procrastinate
sometimes, but not as much as I used to. I will be able to improve on this as time goes along
because I will become more motivated by seeing the end result, which usually would be better
grades.
Overall I think that my most of my writing habits have improved and for the ones that have not I
know what they are and what I need to do to improve them. My strengths that I already had as

A Summary Of The Movie The Proposal
Full Analysis Paper In this 2009 movie–The Proposal–we have two main characters: Margaret Tate,
played by the amazing Sandra Bullock and Andrew Paxton, played by Ryan Reynolds. In this
movie, we have Margaret, a book editor of a New York publishing office and Andrew, her snide
commenting assistant. Margaret is an orphaned Canadian who is facing deportation and losing her
job, but she sees the light that'll save her. Andrew. She forces Andrew to get married to her, but first
they must travel to Sitka, Alaska to attend Andrew's grandma's 90th birthday party. Shenanigans
ensue and so do this hilarious couples relationship. Through this all we can see the use of coercive
power, self–disclosure, and different conflict styles. Margaret is the top book editor in her
department therefore, she exudes power. Everyone in her department, including Andrew, is scared
of her because she uses coercive power. Coercive power is the ability to influence someone's
decision making by taking something away as punishment or threatening punishment if the person
does not follow instructions. This plays a major role in how Margaret and Andrew's relationship
works and develops. During the beginning of the movie, Andrew is afraid to do anything that
might upset or disturb his boss in any way. Even going so far as to take the shirt off another man's
back to replace his coffee soaked one, because he knows Margaret wouldn't be pleased to see him
that way. This concept is particularly seen when

The Fourth Industrial Revolution By Klaus Schwab
One of the greatest achievement of the previous centuries is the Industrial Revolution. People went
from manual labor to using machines in order to improve productivity and eliminate hard labor. It
started as simple as the use of water and steam and went all way to the electrical power usage. The
latest accomplishments are the development of electronics and technology. Nowadays, it is believed
to be the continuous extension of the Third Industrial Revolution – the beginning of the Fourth
Industrial Revolution. In the article "The Fourth Industrial Revolution: what it means, how to
respond" Klaus Schwab gave comprehensive and indisputable reasons confirming the beginning of
the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In addition, he evaluates not only the impact it will have on
different spheres of our life but, more importantly, how it will affect and change our humanity. In any
case, with all its downsides, Industrial Revolutions improved all aspects of human life and we should
not think this time it will be different. All Industrial Revolutions took place around 200 years ago but
having vast and complicated effects now. They dramatically improved our lifestyle at the same time
diminishing our value and morals and completely changing peoples' attitude toward nature. They
were focused on economic growth which led to environmental destruction. I argue that one of the
most important priorities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution ought to be strict environmental
standards. A lot

High School Summary And Analysis
I have learned that throughout our high school years we grow and develop new skills every year to
conquer arduous obstacles. I am going to take it all the way back to 10th grade. During my
sophomore year, I thought I was a pretty decent writer, usually above average, so I decided to take
an honors class. The first day I was placed in a higher level of English, I thought, "Okay, how hard
could this be?" To my surprise, they were assigned chapter books to read on their own and had a
month to read them along with packets to complete. I was overwhelmed with work and decided it
was a bad idea. I switched to a regular class and decided to be a big fish in a little pond, meaning I
would be one of the smartest in the class, instead of an honors class

With technology rapidly progressing in the twenty first century, society's social constructs are
forced to evolve and adapt with each new advancement. The video "Look Up" by Gary Turk is a
spoken word short film that expresses the impact technology has on present day social interactions
and encourages viewers to reflect upon such. With the telling of a potential love story, the video
evokes emotion through the use of a personal connection and pathos. Additionally, the video targets
the youth demographic, which is claimed to be the technological generation, on multiple occasions
throughout. Finally the spoken poetry style keeps listeners engaged and attentive to the narrative
accompanying the powerful visuals. By examining these specific aspects, it can be understood just
how Gary Turk was successful in creating such an effective and impacting short film.
Authors, directors, producers, and others who create media often find that the most efficient way to
have their work resonate with an audience is through manipulation of emotion. Gary Turk uses this
concept by telling a love story with two potential outcomes, in an attempt to establish a personal
connection with his audience. Mirrored storylines of an encounter between a man looking for
directions and a woman passing by on the street are presented. But, only in the scenario lacking
technology does the couple meet, fall in love, marry, have a daughter, and grow old together. By
giving only one option of a 'happily ever

Summary Of ' The Two Wolves '
The short story "The Two Wolves" changed my life forever because it helped me learn self–control,
how to find happiness, and be courageous. Prior to the story, I had a rough time coping with the
death of my dog Delilah who was like a child to me. For months after her death, I went through the
motions. Day by day I locked myself away from the world. I couldn't feel the happiness, excitement,
or even laugh like everyone else did, instead I was drowning in sadness. Overwhelmed with the
reality of my life, I knew for a fact nothing would be the same. I lost my best friend, the one who
always was nothing else but happy when I can through the door. She always gave my
unconditional love, and was nothing but loyal to me as I was to her. Now, that was all over. I
stayed in my room mourning, while it mentally tore me into piece. It was so bad I couldn't bare to
be around a swarming crowd of teens who could care less about my life. Therefore, I stayed home
from school for a week, never left the bed once. I felt as if no one understood me, they wouldn't
care if I had gone missing. No one cared if I was hurt. No one understood the love for my dog. I
knew in my heart that nothing will ever be the same again. Everyday my heart ached for her.
While the Sunday before I had to go back to school I was surfing the internet, I clicked a link that
said "The Two Wolves." Not knowing anything about wolves, I kept reading. As I read the short
story, everything in my life started connecting with

Attack On Titan Analysis
The officers took note that Ender seemed happier after the letter. Graff had prepared rigged
battles for Ender, so see how he would deal with them. Ender was taken to his new quarters as a
commander. He got an army named "Dragon Army", which was said to lose 2/3 of their battles.
After meeting up with his troops and organizing everyone into their bunks, they all headed to the
battle room. He taught them how to fight in a different style, where they used their knees as shields
and orientate themselves so the door would be downwards. During the session, Ender picked on a
small kid named Bean. Ender gave the kid a similar treatment to how Graff treated him. Bean

There were 3 characters whose names were Annie, Bertholdt, and Reiner. They grew up in the
same village, and wanted to protect their families and homes. When they were teenagers, they
joined the military and graduated successfully. Annie joined the Military Police, since it was her
goal all along, and because it was considered a high classed branch compared to other branches.
Bertholdt and Reiner joined the Recon Corps, because many of their friends decided to join the
particular branch. The Military Police often looked down on the Recon Corps since they were
reckless and poorer. However, those 2 branches worked in separate areas; they could rarely see
each other again. This is similar to Ender's case, where he won't be able to see Alai and Shen
since he is in a high position of power and in a different army. 1)What is your opinion of the
Dragon Army? A: I thought it would be clichГ© since Ender was a prodigy compared to other
boys his age. It would have been a piece of cake for him to make the Dragon Army rise above all
the other teams with his strategies and observations skills. Also I thought the name was funny
because all these other armies get animals like Rat, Salamander, and Scorpions etc. But nope, not
Ender, he gets Dragons! Why not have a Unicorn Army while we're at it! 2)Do you think Ender
hates a few of his Army's members? A: In my opinion, I think he just finds them inexperienced and

Analysis Of All Summer In A Day
Imagine what it would feel like to move to a whole new world where everything is dark and
gloomy all the time. What would life be like without the sun shining bright in the sky every
morning and instead, having the constant thump of rain droplets sound in your ear everyday? In
"All Summer In a Day", by Ray Bradbury, that is what life is like on Venus: Margot's new home.
Unlike Margot, her classmates have no recollection of what the sun feels or even looks like. In this
story, Bradbury analyzes what life without the sun would be like for the children on Venus.
Additionally, Bradbury also presents how the human race has the ability to be jealous and hateful
towards anyone who is different or stands out in any way and how there are consequences to that. In
the dystopian story, Margot isolates herself while she grieves the loss of the sun, but her constant
mention of it to her peers sparks jealousy in them. Bradbury creates a theme that suggests that when
people hold onto their own pain, more often than not they end up hurting those around them.
The children's pain is captured through Bradbury's descriptions and details in the story. One of
the details that displays the pain the children are feeling is that although they haven't seen the sun
in their whole lives, they want and crave it so much that they dream of it every night, "but then
they always awoke to the tatting drum, the endless shaking down of clear bead necklaces upon
the roof, the walk, the gardens, the forests, and their dreams were gone." This is a clear display of
the longing that the children have for the sun and how their desperateness leads them to later on
want to hurt Margot. The author describes how "Margot stood apart from them, from these
children who could never remember a time when there wasn't rain and rain and rain. They were all
nine years old, and if there had been a day, seven years ago, when the sun came out for an hour and
showed its face to the stunned world, they could not recall." This line shows that Margot has seen
the sun while her peers have not, deepening the pain the children feel.
Towards the climax of the story, due to the children's jealousy they wind up bullying Margot
emotionally and even physically. At first

Summary Of The Play 'Someday'

The story being told through a play is called "Someday," using fictional characters the author is
able to tell a story based on real life tragedies of Aboriginal families across Canada. Anne
Wabung's older daughter was taken away from her when she was a baby by Children's Aid
Workers. It is Christmas time 35 year later in an Ojibway community, and Anne after winning 5

Loss of loved ones was another, besides losing her daughter she also lost her husband and only
son as it is mentioned in the play. The character all seemed to have their own point of view when
it came to meeting Janice (Grace), Anne was excited, Barb seemed like she was trying to put her
down with saying she was coming because of the money her mom won. Rodney just seemed
happy for Anne. The play was written by Drew Hayden Taylor he has written many book that have
to do with Canada and Aboriginals. To me the reason the author wrote about this story was so that
people could get an idea of a feeling about the 1950's and 1960's scoop–up children, and how some
of those children led live that had nothing to do with their cultures. Overall I thought the play was
good i just didn't like how it ended with Janice (Grace) leaving when her mother just wanted to
meet her and spend time with her. This is a play where you kind of want to know what happens to
all the characters after Janice (Grace) leaves. What with Anne do with the money, Will Janice
return to see her mother again, and with Rodney and Barb become a better couple. I would say that
this play would be for anyone who cares about Canadian drama or topics that have to do with
Aboriginal history in

Summary Of I Stand Here Writing By Nancy Sommers
In her article "I Stand Here Writing", Nancy Sommers examines the writing process and formulating
ideas for writing in a more empirical manner. She states that before she found her creative zeal
/ niche her writing was often undisciplined, unmethodical, and sloppy. Sommers reveals that in
college she was less known for her writing and more for her long hair and misapplication of phrases.
She found her true inspiration while writing her Senior Thesis on Emerson's "Eloquence."
Throughout the entire essay, Sommers provides the reader with advice about writing. A key point
that she mentions is, "If I could teach my students about writing it would be to see themselves as
sources, as places from which ideas originate, to see themselves as Emerson's transparent eyeball, all
that they have read and experienced–the–dictionaries of their lives circulating through them."...show

She begins the article by discussing the disparity between truth and a fact. Sommers would like
students to interpret the material for themselves, ergo seeking out their own truth and facts; rather
than compiling arguments from existing sources with no correlation to the material or individual's
argument. She taxes the students with the task of becoming the source and using fact to support
their own argument. In fact, Sommers purpose of writing the paper is to explain why an individual
uses sources, and to identify ways people can view the sources that they use for their

Analysis Of The Movie ' The Help ' Essay
The film "The Help" (2011), is a story based on the daily lives of prominent white women and the
relationships with their African–American housemaids in Jackson, Mississippi, during the 1960s
Civil Rights movement in America. A well–to–do white woman and central character in this film,
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, aspires to be a journalist and decides to write and publish an exposГ©
of the stories of the housemaids in Jackson to achieve this goal, however, only two maids, Aibileen
Clark and Minny Jackson are willing to discuss their experiences with her. The other maid's in
Jackson resist telling Skeeter their stories, fearing the punishments they would endure if the
authorities were to find out. In spite of this, after the malicious arrest of one of their befriended
maids, all of the maids begin to share their experiences, which consist of racial hostility and being
treated as intrinsically subservient to white people. The story Skeeter publishes entitled The Help,
creates a disturbance among the white families in Jackson, by exposing the racism the maids are
faced with, forcing the white families to reflect upon how they have treated their maids. The
storyline represented in The Help exhibits examples of the primordial approach to race and ethnicity,
as well as numerous sociological concepts including segregation, internalized oppression, and white
privilege, which will be exemplified in this paper in order to uncover the race relations evident
within this film.

3 Day Diet Analysis Essays
According to my three day diet analysis it seems like my eating habits are poor. Not necessarily
that I am consuming too many bad foods but I am not getting the all around nutrients that I need

Due to my job and the lack of time I have at home it is hard for me to get the nutrients I need on a
daily basis. With the target that is shown of six oz. of grains two and a half cups of vegetables, two
cups of fruits, two cups of dairy and five and a half oz. of protein foods I fell short in most of the

I was educated further on the matter and even did my own personal research to see what things I
did that were considered using energy. In my job I am constantly talking, writing, typing, moving
around, etc. All of these were small portions of my calorie burn. I was delighted to see after
tearing myself up about visiting the gym more often. This did show me the importance of having
some sort of work out routine or plan more consistently. Devoting more time to this area will help
me burn more calories. Even the outdoor activities you do with friends and loved ones can be
great. Doesn't necessarily mean you have to run and get a gym membership. Just use the day to
day activities as you go. I was then educated on the six classes of nutrients, which are water,
carbohydrates, fats, proteins, minerals and vitamins. I do realize there I no single food that can
supply all six of these nutrients so it's all about being an all around healthy eater that will matter at
this point. Finding the foods that I like and I can incorporate into my eating habit that will take
affect, even the foods I can take out of my normal routine will help. Being able to follow this
routine, start trying and eating new foods and having these consistent in my life as well as pursuing
more serious exercise will help my diet and nutritional needs currently and in the future. Now that I

The Fourth Industrial Revolution By Klaus Schwab
t would have been inconceivable even ten years ago to imagine a scenario where the world's
largest taxi company (Uber) didn't own any vehicles, where the world's largest accommodation
provider (AirBnB) didn't own any buildings or where the world's largest retailer (Alibaba) didn't
have any inventory. The Fourth Industrial Revolution Klaus Schwab whose recent book 'the Fourth
Industrial Revolution' set the agenda for this year's World Economic Forum in Davos compares
Detroit in 1990 with Silicon Valley in 2014 to highlight the strain new technologies are already

Summary Of Globalization At The Crossroads
The video Globalization at a Crossroads follows an author, researcher and economist Hernando De
Soto on his multiple journey's to different countries to view the effect that globalization has and
doesn't have on undeveloped countries. Throughout his journey he goes to Peru, Tanzania, Albania,
China, and many others. His reason for traveling to many poor countries is to understand the
difference between developed countries that have developed themselves with globalization and are
thriving compared to undeveloped countries that are poor and in ravenous conditions. We discover
throughout the video that De Soto thinks that history is repeating itself due to the large masses of
migration that are occurring throughout the world. While people are migrating they leave behind
their undeveloped countries, De Soto thinks that the West is so prosperous due to the laws and
legal systems that are put in place and undeveloped countries can have more potential if they had a
solid system to grow from because they already control a large amount of assets that Westerners take
for granted. De Soto talks about post–WWII Japan and China stating that creating reforms that
changed "extralegal property and business rights into legal rights" (Globalization at the Crossroads,
2015) turned countries that were in an economic crisis into modern and functioning countries. This
is what developing countries must do in order to grow their middle class and have a booming
economy. Francis Fukuyama claims that

Russell Baker is one of America's most distinguished humorists and political satirists. Baker
graduated John Hopkins University in 1947 and afterward wrote for the Baltimore Sun and the
New York Times. Also, Baker received two Pulitzer awards, one for a commentary and the other was
the first volume of his autobiography. Baker wrote an essay called "The Plot Against People" that
was featured in the New York Times in 1968. This piece embodies everything that Baker is about
which is a humorist who likes to ridicule anything that may seem abnormal. Not only that, but this
essay plays with the basic semantics of how people react to unfortunate events and what could be a
solution to that. Baker in this essay insinuates that "the goal of all...show more content...
In addition, Baker use of persuasive and ironic language helped the claim of this essay provide
validity to his argument. For example, "Science is utterly baffled by this category" (15). In this
example, Baker asserts that there aren't any scientific facts that can substantiate his claim, yet his
experience is enough to prove that his assertion is true. Not only that, but the fact the science has the
tendency is to rule out many theories or ideas simply because there isn't any evidence makes it seem
that Baker tried to provide science–related facts. But, the fact that Baker pointed out that science
wouldn't agree with his thesis is a bit amusing. If anything, Baker's thesis would fall into the
category of philosophy where the best type of knowledge is the one gained through experience.
Hence, why this statement is powerful because it doesn't need to be factual, all it did was welcome
the idea of logic and question the objects around us.
By the end of the essay, Baker says that we as humans have been defeated by inanimate objects.
Baker presented an ongoing problem and then ended his case by saying that this problem can't be
solved. In other words, Baker explains our failure as a species by letting inanimate objects control
the fate of our events and saying that humanity has let it go under its nose. Yet, I believe that Baker
means something totally different.

In Hidden Intellectualism by Gerald Graff, he begins with the argument of "street–smarts" versus
"school–smarts". Graff explains that school–smarts can be hidden within street smarts and can be
learnt through not just talking with friends, but also from the media and our surroundings, hence the
"hidden" intellectualism. He goes onto explain that "schools and colleges overlook the intellectual
potential of street–smarts" (198) because these types of intellectualism are actually considered
anti–intellectualism. Graff then begins to discuss that intellectualism is often looked down upon
within schools, and people that are considered "school–smart" are seen as nerdy, or boring. We learn
that as a child, Graff was afraid of bullying and...show more content...
He goes onto explain that by talking about subjects such as sports, one is able to experience the
topics of arguments, debates, and even statistics in a way that the subjects in school could not live
up to. We see him talk about how everyday culture can be applied to the world much more than the
topics and readings we learn about in school, as this culture is able to be talked about more
enthusiastically with someone one had just met. Children would also be able to look at the world in
a different light, as they would be learning essential life skills and essential knowledge in an
interesting, exciting way. Graff faults the schooling systems for not being able to grasp his youthful
attention, and the attention of so many of today's children. Graff closes by saying that helping
children find their intellectualism within themselves is still a work in progress.
Intellectualism is most often described as someone who has a vast amount of knowledge, is well
spoken, and most people's idea of intelligence is someone who is "book smart". Book Smart would
be described as someone who van write and converse about subjects that are most often taught in
school. Another type of "smart" would be someone who is known as "street smart". They are seen as
intellectuals who are knowledgeable in the world around them, and today's culture, and individuals
who learn through personal experiences. In the essay Hidden Intellectualism, by Gerald Graff he

The results of the survey were put analyzed and the results shown in graphs and charts displayed

This was further evident in the answers to the questions about respondents' feelings on Native
Americans. In Graph 1, we see that between 50–75% of respondents answered no when asked if they
feel strongly about Native American culture, history or current conditions. This statistic could
explain for why a majority of respondents hold unfavorable opinions on Native Americans. The
majors of respondents were considered in an effort to locate any link between the majors people
take and the information they hold. The majors differed across the board but as shown in Chart 3,
45% of respondents were from the college of Medicine. The next disciplines reported were Liberal
Arts and Business at 30% and 25% respectively. This showed the prevalence of many different
majors which did not prove to be significant influence on opinions. The open ended questions yielded
some interesting results. Most of the participants reported the media or media sources as mediums
through which they receive their information. Only two participants wrote down a school or the
education system as the medium for their knowledge.
There were not many problems obtaining data for this survey. The only major problem encountered,
was that people did not want to partake in the survey. This was due to a couple factors like the
location of the student when the survey was offered, the length

Summary Analysis Essay

  • 1. Essay on Self-Analysis Self–Analysis Before taking this course my writing styles and habits were very different. I was the typical procrastinator because I would wait until the night before a paper was due to start it. This did not allow me enough time to properly proofread everything, which resulted in getting points deducted for simple grammatical errors that could have been avoided if I would have had the time to proofread. My writing styles have many strengths and weaknesses and I have been able to improve my writing because of them. I have learned from my strengths and weaknesses how to become a better writer. In my writing, I have many strengths, some that which I have developed through this course and some that I already had. Before this...show more content... I can write a thesis that will give an overview about what main topic of the paper is and what other elements will be addressed in the paper. From taking this course I have been able to improve many of my weaknesses, but there are still some that I need to work on. Overall I am becoming better at not procrastinating as much as I used to. This class has helped me to learn to take the little steps along the way because then there will not be as much work to do towards the end. This has also made me realize that the final product of my writing will turn out better because it will have had more time to develop, which means that there would have been more opportunities to proofread. I think by learning many styles of writing, such as paraphrasing, summarizing, analyzing, and researching; it has enabled me to be able to write more broadly. By knowing how to correctly use all of these kinds of writing styles, it will help me in the future for other classes because I will have the knowledge that I need to write these types of papers. I still procrastinate sometimes, but not as much as I used to. I will be able to improve on this as time goes along because I will become more motivated by seeing the end result, which usually would be better grades. Overall I think that my most of my writing habits have improved and for the ones that have not I know what they are and what I need to do to improve them.

  • 2. A Summary Of The Movie The Proposal Full Analysis Paper In this 2009 movie–The Proposal–we have two main characters: Margaret Tate, played by the amazing Sandra Bullock and Andrew Paxton, played by Ryan Reynolds. In this movie, we have Margaret, a book editor of a New York publishing office and Andrew, her snide commenting assistant. Margaret is an orphaned Canadian who is facing deportation and losing her job, but she sees the light that'll save her. Andrew. She forces Andrew to get married to her, but first they must travel to Sitka, Alaska to attend Andrew's grandma's 90th birthday party. Shenanigans ensue and so do this hilarious couples relationship. Through this all we can see the use of coercive power, self–disclosure, and different conflict styles. Margaret is the top book editor in her department therefore, she exudes power. Everyone in her department, including Andrew, is scared of her because she uses coercive power. Coercive power is the ability to influence someone's decision making by taking something away as punishment or threatening punishment if the person does not follow instructions. This plays a major role in how Margaret and Andrew's relationship works and develops. During the beginning of the movie, Andrew is afraid to do anything that might upset or disturb his boss in any way. Even going so far as to take the shirt off another man's back to replace his coffee soaked one, because he knows Margaret wouldn't be pleased to see him that way. This concept is particularly seen when Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. The Fourth Industrial Revolution By Klaus Schwab One of the greatest achievement of the previous centuries is the Industrial Revolution. People went from manual labor to using machines in order to improve productivity and eliminate hard labor. It started as simple as the use of water and steam and went all way to the electrical power usage. The latest accomplishments are the development of electronics and technology. Nowadays, it is believed to be the continuous extension of the Third Industrial Revolution – the beginning of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In the article "The Fourth Industrial Revolution: what it means, how to respond" Klaus Schwab gave comprehensive and indisputable reasons confirming the beginning of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In addition, he evaluates not only the impact it will have on different spheres of our life but, more importantly, how it will affect and change our humanity. In any case, with all its downsides, Industrial Revolutions improved all aspects of human life and we should not think this time it will be different. All Industrial Revolutions took place around 200 years ago but having vast and complicated effects now. They dramatically improved our lifestyle at the same time diminishing our value and morals and completely changing peoples' attitude toward nature. They were focused on economic growth which led to environmental destruction. I argue that one of the most important priorities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution ought to be strict environmental standards. A lot Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. High School Summary And Analysis I have learned that throughout our high school years we grow and develop new skills every year to conquer arduous obstacles. I am going to take it all the way back to 10th grade. During my sophomore year, I thought I was a pretty decent writer, usually above average, so I decided to take an honors class. The first day I was placed in a higher level of English, I thought, "Okay, how hard could this be?" To my surprise, they were assigned chapter books to read on their own and had a month to read them along with packets to complete. I was overwhelmed with work and decided it was a bad idea. I switched to a regular class and decided to be a big fish in a little pond, meaning I would be one of the smartest in the class, instead of an honors class Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. With technology rapidly progressing in the twenty first century, society's social constructs are forced to evolve and adapt with each new advancement. The video "Look Up" by Gary Turk is a spoken word short film that expresses the impact technology has on present day social interactions and encourages viewers to reflect upon such. With the telling of a potential love story, the video evokes emotion through the use of a personal connection and pathos. Additionally, the video targets the youth demographic, which is claimed to be the technological generation, on multiple occasions throughout. Finally the spoken poetry style keeps listeners engaged and attentive to the narrative accompanying the powerful visuals. By examining these specific aspects, it can be understood just how Gary Turk was successful in creating such an effective and impacting short film. Authors, directors, producers, and others who create media often find that the most efficient way to have their work resonate with an audience is through manipulation of emotion. Gary Turk uses this concept by telling a love story with two potential outcomes, in an attempt to establish a personal connection with his audience. Mirrored storylines of an encounter between a man looking for directions and a woman passing by on the street are presented. But, only in the scenario lacking technology does the couple meet, fall in love, marry, have a daughter, and grow old together. By giving only one option of a 'happily ever Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Summary Of ' The Two Wolves ' The short story "The Two Wolves" changed my life forever because it helped me learn self–control, how to find happiness, and be courageous. Prior to the story, I had a rough time coping with the death of my dog Delilah who was like a child to me. For months after her death, I went through the motions. Day by day I locked myself away from the world. I couldn't feel the happiness, excitement, or even laugh like everyone else did, instead I was drowning in sadness. Overwhelmed with the reality of my life, I knew for a fact nothing would be the same. I lost my best friend, the one who always was nothing else but happy when I can through the door. She always gave my unconditional love, and was nothing but loyal to me as I was to her. Now, that was all over. I stayed in my room mourning, while it mentally tore me into piece. It was so bad I couldn't bare to be around a swarming crowd of teens who could care less about my life. Therefore, I stayed home from school for a week, never left the bed once. I felt as if no one understood me, they wouldn't care if I had gone missing. No one cared if I was hurt. No one understood the love for my dog. I knew in my heart that nothing will ever be the same again. Everyday my heart ached for her. While the Sunday before I had to go back to school I was surfing the internet, I clicked a link that said "The Two Wolves." Not knowing anything about wolves, I kept reading. As I read the short story, everything in my life started connecting with Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Attack On Titan Analysis The officers took note that Ender seemed happier after the letter. Graff had prepared rigged battles for Ender, so see how he would deal with them. Ender was taken to his new quarters as a commander. He got an army named "Dragon Army", which was said to lose 2/3 of their battles. After meeting up with his troops and organizing everyone into their bunks, they all headed to the battle room. He taught them how to fight in a different style, where they used their knees as shields and orientate themselves so the door would be downwards. During the session, Ender picked on a small kid named Bean. Ender gave the kid a similar treatment to how Graff treated him. Bean demanded a toon, and Ender gave him his standards and expectations on how to be...show more content... There were 3 characters whose names were Annie, Bertholdt, and Reiner. They grew up in the same village, and wanted to protect their families and homes. When they were teenagers, they joined the military and graduated successfully. Annie joined the Military Police, since it was her goal all along, and because it was considered a high classed branch compared to other branches. Bertholdt and Reiner joined the Recon Corps, because many of their friends decided to join the particular branch. The Military Police often looked down on the Recon Corps since they were reckless and poorer. However, those 2 branches worked in separate areas; they could rarely see each other again. This is similar to Ender's case, where he won't be able to see Alai and Shen since he is in a high position of power and in a different army. 1)What is your opinion of the Dragon Army? A: I thought it would be clichГ© since Ender was a prodigy compared to other boys his age. It would have been a piece of cake for him to make the Dragon Army rise above all the other teams with his strategies and observations skills. Also I thought the name was funny because all these other armies get animals like Rat, Salamander, and Scorpions etc. But nope, not Ender, he gets Dragons! Why not have a Unicorn Army while we're at it! 2)Do you think Ender hates a few of his Army's members? A: In my opinion, I think he just finds them inexperienced and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Analysis Of All Summer In A Day Imagine what it would feel like to move to a whole new world where everything is dark and gloomy all the time. What would life be like without the sun shining bright in the sky every morning and instead, having the constant thump of rain droplets sound in your ear everyday? In "All Summer In a Day", by Ray Bradbury, that is what life is like on Venus: Margot's new home. Unlike Margot, her classmates have no recollection of what the sun feels or even looks like. In this story, Bradbury analyzes what life without the sun would be like for the children on Venus. Additionally, Bradbury also presents how the human race has the ability to be jealous and hateful towards anyone who is different or stands out in any way and how there are consequences to that. In the dystopian story, Margot isolates herself while she grieves the loss of the sun, but her constant mention of it to her peers sparks jealousy in them. Bradbury creates a theme that suggests that when people hold onto their own pain, more often than not they end up hurting those around them. The children's pain is captured through Bradbury's descriptions and details in the story. One of the details that displays the pain the children are feeling is that although they haven't seen the sun in their whole lives, they want and crave it so much that they dream of it every night, "but then they always awoke to the tatting drum, the endless shaking down of clear bead necklaces upon the roof, the walk, the gardens, the forests, and their dreams were gone." This is a clear display of the longing that the children have for the sun and how their desperateness leads them to later on want to hurt Margot. The author describes how "Margot stood apart from them, from these children who could never remember a time when there wasn't rain and rain and rain. They were all nine years old, and if there had been a day, seven years ago, when the sun came out for an hour and showed its face to the stunned world, they could not recall." This line shows that Margot has seen the sun while her peers have not, deepening the pain the children feel. Towards the climax of the story, due to the children's jealousy they wind up bullying Margot emotionally and even physically. At first Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 9. Summary Of The Play 'Someday' Someday Critique Essay By. Larissa McCallum The story being told through a play is called "Someday," using fictional characters the author is able to tell a story based on real life tragedies of Aboriginal families across Canada. Anne Wabung's older daughter was taken away from her when she was a baby by Children's Aid Workers. It is Christmas time 35 year later in an Ojibway community, and Anne after winning 5 million in the lottery decided that she should find her older daughter. Janice (Grace) see already knowing about her mother see her picture in the paper and decides to go and see her family. Anne is then reunited with her daughter but the reunion doesn't go as expected. Someday is an entertaining, humorous, and emotional play with...show more content... Loss of loved ones was another, besides losing her daughter she also lost her husband and only son as it is mentioned in the play. The character all seemed to have their own point of view when it came to meeting Janice (Grace), Anne was excited, Barb seemed like she was trying to put her down with saying she was coming because of the money her mom won. Rodney just seemed happy for Anne. The play was written by Drew Hayden Taylor he has written many book that have to do with Canada and Aboriginals. To me the reason the author wrote about this story was so that people could get an idea of a feeling about the 1950's and 1960's scoop–up children, and how some of those children led live that had nothing to do with their cultures. Overall I thought the play was good i just didn't like how it ended with Janice (Grace) leaving when her mother just wanted to meet her and spend time with her. This is a play where you kind of want to know what happens to all the characters after Janice (Grace) leaves. What with Anne do with the money, Will Janice return to see her mother again, and with Rodney and Barb become a better couple. I would say that this play would be for anyone who cares about Canadian drama or topics that have to do with Aboriginal history in Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 10. Summary Of I Stand Here Writing By Nancy Sommers In her article "I Stand Here Writing", Nancy Sommers examines the writing process and formulating ideas for writing in a more empirical manner. She states that before she found her creative zeal / niche her writing was often undisciplined, unmethodical, and sloppy. Sommers reveals that in college she was less known for her writing and more for her long hair and misapplication of phrases. She found her true inspiration while writing her Senior Thesis on Emerson's "Eloquence." Throughout the entire essay, Sommers provides the reader with advice about writing. A key point that she mentions is, "If I could teach my students about writing it would be to see themselves as sources, as places from which ideas originate, to see themselves as Emerson's transparent eyeball, all that they have read and experienced–the–dictionaries of their lives circulating through them."...show more content... She begins the article by discussing the disparity between truth and a fact. Sommers would like students to interpret the material for themselves, ergo seeking out their own truth and facts; rather than compiling arguments from existing sources with no correlation to the material or individual's argument. She taxes the students with the task of becoming the source and using fact to support their own argument. In fact, Sommers purpose of writing the paper is to explain why an individual uses sources, and to identify ways people can view the sources that they use for their Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. Analysis Of The Movie ' The Help ' Essay The film "The Help" (2011), is a story based on the daily lives of prominent white women and the relationships with their African–American housemaids in Jackson, Mississippi, during the 1960s Civil Rights movement in America. A well–to–do white woman and central character in this film, Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, aspires to be a journalist and decides to write and publish an exposГ© of the stories of the housemaids in Jackson to achieve this goal, however, only two maids, Aibileen Clark and Minny Jackson are willing to discuss their experiences with her. The other maid's in Jackson resist telling Skeeter their stories, fearing the punishments they would endure if the authorities were to find out. In spite of this, after the malicious arrest of one of their befriended maids, all of the maids begin to share their experiences, which consist of racial hostility and being treated as intrinsically subservient to white people. The story Skeeter publishes entitled The Help, creates a disturbance among the white families in Jackson, by exposing the racism the maids are faced with, forcing the white families to reflect upon how they have treated their maids. The storyline represented in The Help exhibits examples of the primordial approach to race and ethnicity, as well as numerous sociological concepts including segregation, internalized oppression, and white privilege, which will be exemplified in this paper in order to uncover the race relations evident within this film.

Not necessarily that I am consuming too many bad foods but I am not getting the all around nutrients that I need on a daily basis. Sometimes not eating enough. Or ot finding time to eat at all is a big issue in this. Due to my job and the lack of time I have at home it is hard for me to get the nutrients I need on a daily basis. With the target that is shown of six oz. of grains two and a half cups of vegetables, two cups of fruits, two cups of dairy and five and a half oz. of protein foods I fell short in most of the areas that were targeted for me. My biggest two areas of consumption was refined grains and protein. I can modify my diet to best use...show more content... I was educated further on the matter and even did my own personal research to see what things I did that were considered using energy. In my job I am constantly talking, writing, typing, moving around, etc. All of these were small portions of my calorie burn. I was delighted to see after tearing myself up about visiting the gym more often. This did show me the importance of having some sort of work out routine or plan more consistently. Devoting more time to this area will help me burn more calories. Even the outdoor activities you do with friends and loved ones can be great. Doesn't necessarily mean you have to run and get a gym membership. Just use the day to day activities as you go. I was then educated on the six classes of nutrients, which are water, carbohydrates, fats, proteins, minerals and vitamins. I do realize there I no single food that can supply all six of these nutrients so it's all about being an all around healthy eater that will matter at this point. Finding the foods that I like and I can incorporate into my eating habit that will take affect, even the foods I can take out of my normal routine will help. Being able to follow this routine, start trying and eating new foods and having these consistent in my life as well as pursuing more serious exercise will help my diet and nutritional needs currently and in the future. Now that I am educated on these Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 13. The Fourth Industrial Revolution By Klaus Schwab t would have been inconceivable even ten years ago to imagine a scenario where the world's largest taxi company (Uber) didn't own any vehicles, where the world's largest accommodation provider (AirBnB) didn't own any buildings or where the world's largest retailer (Alibaba) didn't have any inventory. The Fourth Industrial Revolution Klaus Schwab whose recent book 'the Fourth Industrial Revolution' set the agenda for this year's World Economic Forum in Davos compares Detroit in 1990 with Silicon Valley in 2014 to highlight the strain new technologies are already putting on the labour market. In 1990 the three biggest companies in Detroit had a market capitalisation of US$36bn, revenues of US$250bn and 1.2 million employees. In 2014, the three Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 14. Summary Of Globalization At The Crossroads The video Globalization at a Crossroads follows an author, researcher and economist Hernando De Soto on his multiple journey's to different countries to view the effect that globalization has and doesn't have on undeveloped countries. Throughout his journey he goes to Peru, Tanzania, Albania, China, and many others. His reason for traveling to many poor countries is to understand the difference between developed countries that have developed themselves with globalization and are thriving compared to undeveloped countries that are poor and in ravenous conditions. We discover throughout the video that De Soto thinks that history is repeating itself due to the large masses of migration that are occurring throughout the world. While people are migrating they leave behind their undeveloped countries, De Soto thinks that the West is so prosperous due to the laws and legal systems that are put in place and undeveloped countries can have more potential if they had a solid system to grow from because they already control a large amount of assets that Westerners take for granted. De Soto talks about post–WWII Japan and China stating that creating reforms that changed "extralegal property and business rights into legal rights" (Globalization at the Crossroads, 2015) turned countries that were in an economic crisis into modern and functioning countries. This is what developing countries must do in order to grow their middle class and have a booming economy. Francis Fukuyama claims that Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 15. Russell Baker is one of America's most distinguished humorists and political satirists. Baker graduated John Hopkins University in 1947 and afterward wrote for the Baltimore Sun and the New York Times. Also, Baker received two Pulitzer awards, one for a commentary and the other was the first volume of his autobiography. Baker wrote an essay called "The Plot Against People" that was featured in the New York Times in 1968. This piece embodies everything that Baker is about which is a humorist who likes to ridicule anything that may seem abnormal. Not only that, but this essay plays with the basic semantics of how people react to unfortunate events and what could be a solution to that. Baker in this essay insinuates that "the goal of all...show more content... In addition, Baker use of persuasive and ironic language helped the claim of this essay provide validity to his argument. For example, "Science is utterly baffled by this category" (15). In this example, Baker asserts that there aren't any scientific facts that can substantiate his claim, yet his experience is enough to prove that his assertion is true. Not only that, but the fact the science has the tendency is to rule out many theories or ideas simply because there isn't any evidence makes it seem that Baker tried to provide science–related facts. But, the fact that Baker pointed out that science wouldn't agree with his thesis is a bit amusing. If anything, Baker's thesis would fall into the category of philosophy where the best type of knowledge is the one gained through experience. Hence, why this statement is powerful because it doesn't need to be factual, all it did was welcome the idea of logic and question the objects around us. By the end of the essay, Baker says that we as humans have been defeated by inanimate objects. Baker presented an ongoing problem and then ended his case by saying that this problem can't be solved. In other words, Baker explains our failure as a species by letting inanimate objects control the fate of our events and saying that humanity has let it go under its nose.

He goes onto explain that by talking about subjects such as sports, one is able to experience the topics of arguments, debates, and even statistics in a way that the subjects in school could not live up to.

Graff faults the schooling systems for not being able to grasp his youthful attention, and the attention of so many of today's children. Graff closes by saying that helping children find their intellectualism within themselves is still a work in progress.

In the essay Hidden Intellectualism, by Gerald Graff he insists Get more content on HelpWriting.net
