    For this project you will research and present a cultural topic pertaining to the Aeneid. You will write an essay and create a one-minute summary in which you outline the theme and main points of your essay (think of it as a narrated abstract).

    The topic is The Tiber River

  • Extra Credit

    I have been giving each of you a lot of feedback over the first three weeks on paragraph/sentence structure, referencing, typos, and grammar. I have also highlighted many submissions due to organizational issues. In the lecture, I mentioned, “What if I only read the first line of every paragraph,” in order to have you focus on being very intentional with what you place in each paragraph.

    Although you have the textbook to read and can observe my writing style, I wanted to share a recent reflection I wrote as a student. I am currently completing a program through Wharton Business School, one of the top programs in the country, on Neuroscience and its impact on business decisions. One of the many requirements for the week was to do a reflection on something in the lecture and address 1. 2. What technology did I choose, and describe it? An example where that technology is being used, 3. Its benefits, 4. Its limitations, and 5. Its relation to business.

    I am attaching my Submission for you to review and see how I practice what I preach.

    In order to get (up to 5 points) extra credit, please:

    1. Put your professor hat on and review my submission.
    2. What did you learn about paragraph/sentence structure?
    3. What did you learn about organization and clarity despite dealing with a complicated topic?
    4. Did I meet all of the requirements? Compare the requirements to the first line of each paragraph.
    5. When I used a scholarly reference, did I just throw out a quote or a link? What did I do instead?

  • Lab

    Class,

    I don’t think it is practical for us to obtain actual topsoil samples for our Loam Grain Size Lab due to the weather. I have unpublished this assignment, but I do not want to change the Overview. You can see the example I produced to make the instructions. A great exercise to do when teaching soil classification.

    All you need to do for the other lab exercise is to use Play-Doh to demonstrate the physical test for cohesiveness, or a role test. We perform a visual and a physical test for all three elements for soil classification. We can look at grain size as a visual test for cohesiveness and then perform a role test where we make a 1/8-inch-thick string of the soil. If we can it confirms cohesiveness.

    Next we perform a visual test for fissuring. Again, we have a visual test inspecting for cracking, flaking, etc and then pat out a 1 inch thick by 2-inch-wide disk and allow it to dry naturally. If it stays together and does not crumble easily, it is not fissured material. Usually fissuring material will crack or come apart as it dries and easily crushes.

    Since we dont have real soil that is all. But in the real world we use a thumb test and confirm with a pocket penetrometer, and some use pocket shear vane testers to determine TSF.

    We do these to practice our classification skills but to also see how I was taught and how I teach soil classification to safety students and operators. It is a good idea to have several real samples available for learners to describe, and perform visual and physical tests on. In order to be qualified a learner should be able to perform a thumb test and be accurate with the penetrometer test at least 80% of the time.

    Remember, qualified persons have DEMONSTRATED KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL. SKILL BEING EXEMPLIFIED WITH EXPERIENCE. QUALIFIED PERSONS MUST HAVE TWO SKILLS DEMONSTRATED, CONTROL OF ACTIVITY AND ABILITY TO RECOGNIZE AND AVOID HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. Documenting the class learning and the practicals go along way to proving qualified status. You can then eval and document the same practical elements in the field to document successful experience.

  • Constitution & slavery

    Sign a constitution that allows and protects slavery?The original U.S. Constitution not only allowed for slavery, but also took some steps to protect it, in order to convince the slave states to ratify the document.

Would you have voted for the document back then, despite the protections given for slavery? Why or why not?

  • 4.1 Content Knowledge Challenge

    Chapter Four provides our first in depth encounter with operant behavior. We shift our focus from the two-term contingency of respondent conditioning to the three-term contingency of operant conditioning. We revisit the antecedent stimulus as a discriminative stimulus but spend most of our attention on the consequent stimuli which impact the future probability of the responses that produce them. We talked about response classes and stimulus classes as well.

    For your fourth CKC we will focus on the contingencies of operant behavior. To complete this challenge, provide answers to the following: (1) Compare and contrast positive and negative reinforcers. You should select one point of comparison: it should be the most important and defining point of comparison. Answer this portion of the question in no more than 20 words You should select one point of contrast: it should be the most important and defining point of contrast. Answer this portion of the question in 25 words or less. (2). Compare and contrast positive and negative punishers. You should select one point of comparison: it should be the most important and defining point of comparison. Answer this portion of the question in no more than 20 words You should select one point of contrast: it should be the most important and defining point of contrast. Answer this portion of the question in 25 words or less. (3) Compare and contrast negative reinforcers and positive punishers. You should select one point of comparison: it should be the most important and defining point of comparison. Answer this portion of the question in no more than 20 words You should select one point of contrast: it should be the most important and defining point of contrast. Answer this portion of the question in 25 words or less.

    Your response to this challenge should be formal. It should be well written and carefully organized to address each portion of the challenge. You are free to use your text and other resources but make sure you cite and reference all sources used. You should focus on paraphrasing rather than quoting from sources. Your document should be saved as a doc, docx or pdf file. It should adhere to the APA 6th edition editorial style. If you need assistance with APA editorial style take the link Writing Styles Guide on the left (toward the bottom) which will land you on the Purdue OWL site. This challenge has strict word limits these are not minimum limits but maximum limits. Focus on being direct and concise.

  • Business Strategy

    Since you are enrolled in Northwesterns SPS Business of Esports course, an angel investor has entrusted you to provide a worthy investment strategy in the world of esports.

    This is a great opportunity for you to appraise the esports ecosystem and make a creative, informed, impactful investment in the esports industry.

    The investor does not want to simply invest in an existing esports organization / team (unless your investment adds a unique diversification component), esports publisher led league, or and existing AAA game publisher (they could have done that on their own).

    The investor would like to make a splash in the esports space and innovate the current esports ecosystem that could be impactful for stakeholders, provide sustainable growth while at the same time drive longer term investment returns.

    Your report should incorporate the following key elements:

    • As a precursor to your pitch, the investor would like an upfront on the current esports market, any relevant trends, and your forecast for future growth (based on available data).
    • Identify and explain your esports ecosystem innovation investment thesis.
    • What part of the ecosystem is being innovated and how do you expect your innovation to affect the industry?
    • Detail your implementation plan and what outcome you expect across the industry.
  • Co-Teaching Models and Inclusive Education

    The readings I got for this assignment are attached. Just answer the questions for the scenario and on it’s own thing have the answers to the attached questions on its own page. You only need to do a page each. One page is the scenario explanation and the other page the answers to the questions.
