Nervous system diagnosis
In the assignment, you will take on the role of a teacher, exploring the world of a nervous system diagnosis and present your lesson in a recorded presentation. You will pick a diagnosis, research it, and then share your findings. This is not about gathering information; it’s your chance to critically think about how this diagnosis affects people and to aid your understanding of it. Your insights can spark curiosity and lead to a deeper appreciation of the topic, which will include the diagnosis’s symptoms, causes/etiologies, diagnostic tools, and potential treatment options. To assess your audience’s understanding of the content, you will conclude the lesson by developing three multiple-choice questions (MCQ) with rationales.

For example, SmartArt could help you illustrate this component. Organization (10 points): The flow of the presentation has smooth transitions, and the use of images, background, and fonts are not distracting or make the content difficult to view. Multiple-Choice Questions (10 points) Questions (5 points): Create three multiple-choice questions that are relevant to your topic that could enhance the learner’s experience. Rationale (5 points): Provide an explanation for the correct answer and why any of the distractors or incorrect answers are wrong.

This needs to be included on the last slide of your PowerPoint. -
The yellow wallpaper analysis
This is assignment will mirror the Rhetorical Analysis essay from ENG 101. However, instead of analyzing rhetorical elements, we will analyze the literary elements. In a 700 800 word essay, present an argument/thesis about one of the short stories by performing a close-reading. A close reading is making observations about the language, structure, techniques, and patterns of small passages in a work, creating interpretations about those observations, and then connecting your interpretation back to the larger work. Essentially you will be answering the following questions: What are some important passages in the short story? What do these passage mean? Why is it important to the rest of the short story? It is recommended that you analyze at least 3 passages (Ranging from 3 sentences to the whole paragraph) from the text, though more is encouraged. Instead of looking for rhetorical elements like Ethos, Pathos, and Logos, look for how the author uses elements like: Sentence structure/style Patterns/repeating words Imagery Metaphors or similes Tone The following works are recommended for analysis: Young Goodman Brown by Nathanel Hawthrone (pg 157 168) The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allen Poe (pg 169 174) The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (pg 183 196) Everyday Use by Alice Walker (pg 418 425) HOWEVER, you are allowed to use any work from our textbook, or even another short story of your choice, AS LONG AS YOU GET MY APPROVAL. Whichever work you choose, make sure it is a short story, and no other genre Please follow a basic essay structure: Introduction with a thesis statement Body paragraphs with main points Conclusion that summarizes findings. MLA formatting Header Page number Title with center alignment Indented paragraphs ***Parenthetical citations Double spacing 12pt font Appropriate font ***Work cited page Hanging indent for citations ***Essays that do not contain these elements are automatically placed in the F range (59 and below). Reminder: AI in any capacity, whether it for citation, editing, or content, is prohibited. The essay will be graded on the following five criteria: Audience 20 points Does the essay follow academic standards and conventions? Does the essay have a thesis statement? Is this appropriate for an academic audience? Argument 20 points Does the essay have persuasive arguments? Are quotes properly cited in MLA format? Does the essay Research/Citations 20 points Does the work have a work cited page? Organization 20 points Does the essay follow a standard essay format? Does the essay have clear paragraph structure? Does the essay have strong introduction and conclusions? Does the essay have proper transitions? Style and Grammar 20 points Does the essay follow MLA formatting?

U.S. History Essay
This assignment is two short essays at around 3-4 pages double spaced based on two different prompts about American history between 1918 and 1990. The teacher released a list of prompts that we can choose from, so you will have free creative direction as far as which combination of two prompts you would like to write about. I have attached a document with the sources and some instructions to follow. As far as sources for you to use, the required texts for this course are as follows:
William H. Chafe, The Unfinished Journey
Bruce Schulman, The Seventies
James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time
David Finkel, Thank You for Your Service
Alice Echols, Daring to Be Bad
You can use any of these texts for writing the two essays. Make sure to site the sources as the teacher describes in the document. Additionally, there are a number of supplemental readings that she assigns every week that you may use for reference or quoting. Those are on the third page of the document that I attached containing the instructions for the essays. You can quote from anywhere in these sources. I don’t have an exact number of quotes that should be used, but the more the better. If there are any resources that you need or any questions that you have, do not hesitate to reach out, I will be around to answer them. Thank you so much!
