Your paper must include a personal reaction and analysis of your experience.
Why did you choose this experience? How do you see its importance in the overall dialogue of
the Italian Experience in the United States? Your readings, guest lecturer presentations and
class lectures should serve as the starting point. It is my expectation that your work will be
supported by connecting what you experienced to what you have learned in this course.

I attended the Calandra Institute 2026 Annual Conference on April 24, 2026, from 9:30 to 10:45 a.m. The conference focused on Womens Spiritual Awakenings.

Upon entering, I met my professor, Donna Chirico, who introduced me to Anthony Julina Tamburrie, the Dean of the John D. Calandra Italian American Institute. Afterward, we were invited to have coffee and pastries before the program began.

Several scholars were present and gave presentations. I attended one session, which discussed womens spiritual awakenings. Parts of the presentation were delivered in Italian, so I did not understand everything. However, I was still able to learn some key ideas from the discussion.

John D. Calandra Italian American Institute (25 West 43rd Street, 17th floor, NYC, NY 10036).

You may attend any event hosted by the Institute; all are free and open to the public.
The website lists lectures, readings by book authors, and films. When you go to the
Institute, you will need to ask someone there to sign off that you attended. Event
announcements will be provided throughout the semester. This years annual
conference at the Institute is: Religions, Beliefs, and the Supernatural in Italy and across
Italian Mobilities. This conference will be in person, and I will be present.
Religious practices, policies, tensions, and conflicts have been a defining feature of the
construction of the modern Italian state and its struggle to assert a national identity
while in the shadow of the Catholic Church. Various religious communities, such as
Jews and Waldensians, and most recently Muslims and Buddhists, have had to contend
with the dominance of Catholicism in Italys political and cultural spheres. Italys colonial
and imperial projects in Africa and in the Mediterranean racialized religious differences
as aspects of warfare and violent subjugation. Religious beliefs and practices have also
shaped the ways in which Italian migrants were seen and understood in new environs,
especially in Protestant-dominant countries like the United States.
The conference takes place on April 24 and April 25. If you choose to attend the conference,
you need to attend a full session. (These are roughly 1 hour and 45 minutes.) Once the
conference program is available, it will be distributed.

I am studying biology and want to understand the digestive system. What are its main parts and their functions? How does food move through the body, and how are nutrients absorbed?

you will prepare a presentation with PowerPoint or other presentation software. You will create your audio or video presentation by using a video capturing tool located in the courseroom. To access the capture tool, follow the tutorial found in your Books and Resources for this Week.

Schedule a time to meet with a couple who can be family, friends, or co-workers. Create a list of questions you might use to evaluate strengths and resources. In addition to thinking about the Microskill Spotlight of circular questioning, think of the three models you have studied in this course. What questions about strengths and resources might each model ask?

Examples of questions include:

• What attracted them to each other?
• What are their strengths as individuals and a couple?
• Who do they turn to for support?
• What obstacles have they overcome and how?
• Who would also notice they have improved as a couple?
• If their relationship was the basis of a movie, what would the title be?

Be creative in thinking of your own questions.

Plan to meet with the couple for 20-30 quiet minutes to discuss strengths and resources based on your list of prepared questions. After meeting with the couple, create a PowerPoint presentation in which you audio or video record your reflection on what the experience was like for you. It is recommended that you prepare notes to help guide your reflection and ensure that you addressing each of the following components:

• Briefly describe your overall experience. Were you comfortable or nervous?
• What questions did you ask about strengths and resources?
• What models did you consider when asking the questions?
• Did the questions flow easily or were they challenging?
• What was it like to hear them talk about their strengths and resources?
• What specific circular question(s) did you ask?
• Briefly describe your experience with circular questioning and whether or not you felt it provided any pertinent or additional information.
• Imagine yourself several years from now, in an office, meeting with clients. What do you imagine that will be like?

Write me a essay for humanity class

Digital Argument: When you present an argument, you need to consider the rhetorical situation,

and when that situation changes, your argument will change too. Thus, to give you practice

adapting to new rhetorical situations (while also allowing you to refine your argument), your

next assignment will ask you to turn your researched argument into a new media writing project.

Since your audience will change from an academic audience to a more general audience, this

project will likely have a more conversational tone, use different argumentative tactics, and rely

far more on visuals. This is not a PowerPoint or Prezi project. My research argument draft I dropped in files. So, you have to use my research argument essay for this writing project. IT could be like 4 pages plus citation. It should be in MLA format. No AI, or other things. Also, I dropped in the file more details about this assignment. If you have any questions, please ask me.

I need to do it like in canva like to turn it to multimodal.

1. Choose a digital tool like Canva or Piktochart based on your audience.
2. Take your research paper and pick only the most important points (main idea + 24 key arguments).
3. Turn those points into a visual or using short text, images instead of long paragraphs.
4. Adjust your tone to be more casual and persuasive for a general audience.
5. Use different elements (visuals, text,) to make your argument more engaging and convincing.
