  • Articulating a Debate on The Violent Image

    In most weeks of this course, parallel to case studies of particular films, we will examine larger debates about violence in popular media. Like many controversies that become popular topics of conversation, these debates are often reduced to “clickbait”-style talking points that lose much of the nuance of the originating arguments. The goal of this assignment is to conduct a brief yet deep dive into a particular debate, and provide an objective, good faith account of the argument (including key points and evidence, if applicable) presented by each side of the debate. The key challenge here is to practice writing in a way that does not favour either side: While you quite likely will find yourself personally agreeing with one side of the debate over the other, in a successful paper, it will not be apparent to the reader which side that is. In essence, consider yourself temporarily taking on the role of a news reporter, seeking to present an unbiased account of the facts of the debate, and allow your reader to learn all of the relevant information so that they can come to their own informed conclusion about the issue. This is a short paper that should consist of approximately 300-350 words, and should cite a minimum of two sources, maximum three. These sources can include relevant course readings, other scholarly sources, and reputable non-scholarly sources, such as articles from online newspapers, magazines, and entertainment websites, or even an episode of a podcast. An ideal paper is likely to cite 2 sources, each one written from the perspective of someone on an opposing side of the debate. These sources need to be formally cited at the end of the paper, although you may use whatever academic citation style you prefer (MLA, APA, Chicago, etc.). Regardless of what citation style you use, all in-text citations or footnote citations need to include page numbers (if working with a source that does not have page numbers, like an online news article, still indicate this by writing “n.p.”, short for “no pages”).

    The debate you choose to focus on in this paper does not need to have any connection to the topic you ultimately choose for your final paper, but this assignment will nonetheless allow you to practice some valuable skills that will aid the development of your final project. Often in undergraduate writing assignments, you simply do not have time to fully consider all sides of an argument, and will read your potential sources quickly, specifically seeking out the passages that will support the argument you want to make. Here, you finally have the opportunity to slow down and really consider exactly what each side in an argument is saying, without any need to pinpoint the strengths of one at the expense of the other. Along these lines, here are some questions you might ask yourself while working on this assignment, in order to begin preparing for the final paper: What are the most convincing arguments made by parties on each side of this debate? Even if you strongly disagree with one of these parties, is it possible for you to understand why the presentation of their argument was convincing to others? How might this understanding of structuring a convincing argument help you to formulate a strong argument for your final paper in this course? If you think about presenting your future final paper to someone who strongly disagrees with the argument you are making, how might you show your understanding of their point of view, before transitioning into your evidence in favour of your own argument? (Note: these are not questions that should be answered within this assignment, this is just a way to provide yourself with a clear understanding of how your work on this assignment will translate to developing a stronger final paper).

    The choice of what debate to focus on in this assignment is up to you: If there is a debate about violence and popular media that particularly interests you, such as one about a recently released piece of media, or one that has occurred outside of the North American context, you are welcome to pursue your own topic. If you would like some ideas, you are also welcome to write about a topic selected from this list (many of these debates also tie in to future weeks of the course, and you may cite relevant course readings from those weeks if you would like):

    • Do mainstream “torture porn” films, such as the Saw or Hostel film franchises, go ‘too far’ in their graphic depictions of violence?
    • Should social media websites employ more advanced forms of censorship, such as mandatory age-verification, in order to ensure that children are not being exposed to age-inappropriate violent content?
    • There has been a recent social media trend referring to “Good For Her” films, in which female protagonists either enact, or are culpable in, vengeful violence against other characters–usually men–who have done harm to them (for example, Promising Young Woman, The Witch, and Midsommar). Are these films legitimately cathartic and empowering, or might they carry forward some of the same problems as earlier films that examined violence against women?
    • Do the sometimes-violent lyrics and imagery of popular music and music videos–in particular, in genres such as heavy metal, rap, or rock music–have a negative impact on listeners, particularly children and adolescents?
    • Do violent videogames, such as first-person shooters or open-world crime games like the GTA series, motivate aggressive or even violent impulses in people who play them?
    • Is censorship of a violent piece of audiovisual media acceptable if there is evidence that it is motivating people to commit real, imitation acts of violence? (For example, A Clockwork Orange or Natural Born Killers)
    • Should violence ever be depicted in audiovisual media aimed at children? How do we determine what level of violence is appropriate for children to see?
    • Is it exploitative to create audiovisual entertainment based on real violent crimes? (For example, you might look at debates around true crime media, or Ryan Murphy’s controversial miniseries about famous serial killers)
    • Does the formal stylization of violence (as in, for example, Quentin Tarantino’s films) glorify or glamourize violence in ways that are harmful to viewers?
    • Is it possible to make an anti-war movie that visually depicts warfare?

    Grading criteria:

    The paper opens with a brief, clear identification of a relevant debate regarding violence and audiovisual media (3 points)

    The paper effectively summarizes the key points presented on both sides of the debate (3 points)

    The paper uses unbiased language to articulate each side of the debate–essentially, the grader should not be able to tell which arguments the paper’s writer agrees or disagrees with (3 points)

    The paper accurately and effectively cites 2-3 well-chosen sources (3 points)

  • Discussion

    Discuss what specifically motivates you at work or at school. Think specifically about a time where you really put a lot of energy into a task. Why did you work so hard? What do you think you were striving for (what reward/outcome)? Discuss what happened at the end of the event…did you achieve the goal, did you get the expected reward? After considering the outcomes, what happened to your motivation on the task that immediately followed this task?

    The purpose of your discussion is to help you examine key organizational behavior concepts that you have encountered in the past, and will certainly encounter again in the future. Please discuss what you are thinking because there are no “right” or “wrong” answers. Your discussion will be graded on the depth to which you explore the concept (this means you must INCLUDE concepts from the text and develop these concepts into your discussion).

    • Your initial response should be “your” experience with the prompt. Connect back to key chapter concepts and outside research. In-text citations (APA 7th ed) are expected.
  • health. one paragraph

    Take on the role as a Health Coach. One of your clients has been trying to quit smoking, but has not been successful. The longest stretch they have made has been three months. They understand the impact smoking has on their health, but when they are in social settings (such as with friends) they cannot stay on track and end up relapsing. They have tried to set goals for themselves, but have not been successful. In fact, they dont truly understand the importance of goal setting.

    • Explain to your client the importance of setting goals when making a behavior change and S.M.A.R.T. goal setting (in your own words).
    • How would you help this client through using the Transtheoretical Model? Elaborate on examples of strategies they could implement based on processes of change.

    Requirements: small paragraph

  • Draft of Project

    How to Complete Your Draft/Outline of Your PowerPoint Project

    This step involves planning your PowerPoint presentation before creating the actual slides. Think of it as your blueprint it shows what you will include and how your ideas will be organized.

    Heres what to do:

    1. Choose your topic (Drug of choice) Drug of choice is Sertraline (Zoloft).

    Decide what your presentation will be about (approved drug of choice), and start your research on the drug.

    2. Create a Basic Structure

    Outline your headings just the main ideas, not the full text. A simple structure looks like this:

    1. Title page/slide Your name, topic, and date.
    2. Introduction Briefly explain what your presentation will cover and why its important.
    3. Main Points (Bullet points or slides) The key ideas or sections of your topic.

    2. References Cite the source of your information using APA 7 format.

    3. You can create this in a PowerPoint slide or a Word document (Bullet Points)

    Write short bullet points about:

    • What you plan to say on that slide
    • What images, graphs, or visuals you might include

    4. Keep It Simple

    You dont need to design the actual PowerPoint yet this is just your draft plan. Those who submit their completed/finished PowerPoint presentation would have grades deducted because that is not the instructions given for this assignment.

  • Environmentalism perspectives

    Wk 3 Summative Assessment: There are various perspectives of environmentalism. By examining them, you can better understand the motivations of yourself and others. In this assignment, you will create a narrated presentation to discuss each of the various perspectives, assess yourself with respect to the perspectives, and compare your perspectives to those in your scope of experience. Review Ch. 4, Worldview Arguments for Environmentalism, including section 4a The Land Ethic and Deep Ecology and section 4b Ecofeminism and Social Justice, of Environmental Ethics, which is in the Wk 2 Learning Activities folder. Worldview Arguments (5) – Land Ethic – Deep Ecology – Social Ecology – Ecofeminism – Aesthetics Refer to course textbook… p 48 – Worldview Arguments for Environmentalism Include discussions on all five (5) Worldview Arguments. If you have 0% agreement on any of them. explain your perspectives Create a 15- to 20-slide PowerPoint presentation with vocal narration… or… separate written transcript file (labelled slide 1, 2, etc.) to highlight perspectives of environmentalism, your alignment to the perspectives, and how that compares to people you interact with every day. The discussion content should be clear and concise, and include the following: Discuss the different worldview arguments for environmentalism. Explain each, their similarities and differences, and provide examples. Construct a pie chart (see the links in the Additional Resources section below) that describes your personal alignment to each of the worldview arguments. You can think of this like an ancestry report. Instead of outlining your inheritance in percentages, identity your percentage of alignment to each of the worldview arguments. Worldviews that you align with will have a greater percentage than those you find less appealing. Your unique worldview should add up to 100%, so make sure you select appropriate percentages from each of the worldview arguments. Show your pie chart with Worldview Argument labels and percentages Explain your rationale for how you determined each percentage. Include examples from your experience that link to the worldview arguments. Discuss any of the components that you think might change in the future. Describe your reasoning. Share what the worldviews might look like for people you interact with regularly (e.g., family, friends, colleagues, etc.). Compare and contrast the worldviews of those close to you with your worldview. Discuss points of agreement and disagreement you have regarding the similarities and differences in these. Provide examples and discuss your rationale.
