A powerpoint presentation (3 minutes) and a 200-word essay, yes

write essay

After you have chosen a word approved by your instructor, begin your essay with a one paragraph discussion of the commonly accepted definition of the word (denotations). You should provide at least three definitions of your word from at least three different sources. Be sure to cite your sources in your paper.  
In paragraph two, you should address theconnotationswhich are the emotions and values that people commonly associate with your word. This will require you to ask at least three people what the word means to them.
The third paragraph is yourthesis paragraph. Here, you should provide a one sentence thesis statement that expresses an attitude or opinion about what the word means to you personally. This should be followed by a full explanation (at least one paragraph) of what you mean when you say the word. For example, if you are writing about the word, 'mother ' you may choose to explain what you think the characteristics of good mother should be above or beyond the simple dictionary definition.
In the next section of your paper you should write a paragraph or two using one of the following methods of development to support your personal definition:
·a brief anecdote describing an incident that helped shape your definition of the word
·an few short examples (or a single extended example) of what the word means to you.
·a comparison/contrast of what your word is or is not using specific examples
·a description of a person who embodies your idea of what this word means
Be sure to conclude your paper with a personal reflection and some type of restatement of your thesis.

about teaching and/or learning

Choose one of the essays from the list, below, that you think has something interesting to say about teaching and/or learning. (The teaching and learning could be either inside or outside a classroom.)Note: You may not choose the same essay you wrote about for ME #2.
Using the terminology and key concepts of this course (to the extent you reasonably can),

(1)In one sentence, state "the main point" (= the thesis, a proposition about how the world works) the essay is making,as you see it.

(2)Very briefly, explain how the essay is constructed, as you see it. (For instance, how is it organized? What are thesourcesof the sfs the writer has composed?)

(100 to 150 words ought to be enough for parts 1 and 2, combined.)

(3)Here is the heart of the assignment: Make some interesting and useful connections between the essay you've chosen and some other works that we've read in this course. Particularly, draw connections between what the essays have to say (to the reader) concerning teaching and/or learning.

How many "other works"? No fewer than two, no more than four.Any essay listed in the Course Description or handed out in class (includine writing by students) is a valid choice as an "other work." See me if you need another copy of a handout.

(4)Make some interesting and useful connections between the essay you've chosen and some of your own experiences as a learner..

Write for an audience of intelligent adults--college students and college graduates, say. Assume they havenotread the published essay you've selected.
On November 25, I'll ask you to tell me, in writing, the essay you will be focusing on.
Key Advice:(a)Your paper should be full of very-specific sfs--about the essays you are discussing, about your own experiences, about whatever. (b)Quotationis very important in writing of this sort. Quote from the essays you are discussing to support the general claimsyouare making about the essays. Cite the page number(s) for each important quotation. Quote and cite the texts in our anthology (not some other edition of the essays). (c) Organize your paper andmake your pattern of organization easily seen by the reader. (d) Take handwrittennoteson a sheet of paper on each essay you will discuss in this paper. Writing a paper like this without such notes is folly.
The list:
Toni Cade Bambara, "The Lesson" (pp. 253 ff.)
Professor X, "In the Basement of the Ivory Tower" (on Blackboard)
"C.P. Ellis" (handout plus Blackboard)
Gatto, "Against School"
Another essay by special permission in advance
the one I choose from the list is "the lesson" byToni Cade Bambara and for "other work" you can use "against school" by Gatto and "Learing to read" by Malcolm X. all 3 of these essay can be found Rereading America 9th edition

1) be sure that you go BEYOND the narrative style discussions presented in Chapter Two, and
2) be sure that you do NOT select any shot sequences described in Chapter Two.
Once you have viewed your film, answer the following questions:
1. Identify your movie’s type of narrative style. Narrative “types” are discussed in Chapter Two. Your film may contain more than one narrative style. One style, however, will stand out more than any other. (Such as: Journey to a New Place, Equilibrium/Disruption, Characters/Goals, Flight/Pursuit, Love/Ambition, Jealousy/Failure, Desire, Fantasy/Reality, Unresolved Questions, Artifice Exposed.) Defend your point of view with examples from the film.
2. Select one sequence (short and interesting!) from your film. Watch it several times.
a) Number each shot and describe it simply, using terms presented in Chapter Three. (example: 1. Sequence begins with high angle shot of Nina, descending the staircase.)
b) Describe what you think the shot expresses, emotionally, thematically, and/or plot-wise. --and after you’ve done (a) ad (b) for each of the shots in your sequence, answer (c) below….
