    Requirements: 2 pages

  • Research Project Proposal

    In groups of 5, we will conduct a greenhouse research study focusing on how agronomic crops are affected by different environmental factors such as light, water, temperature, soil type, or soil fertility. You will apply the concepts we are learning in class to develop a testable hypothesis, design an experiment to test that hypothesis, execute the experiment, analyze the data, and summarize the findings in a presentation for the class. A comparison study across different crop species is another possibility, but you must manipulate at least one of the environmental factors.

    Response/dependent variables (choose at least one of the following):

    1. Aboveground plant biomass
    2. Aboveground leaf tissue nitrogen content estimation (with SPAD meter)
    3. Plant morphology (plant height, number of leaves, stem length, numbers of tillers, etc.)

    Independent variablescrop (choose at least one of the following):

    1. Alfalfa
    2. Soybean
    3. Canola
    4. Cereal rye
    5. Austrian Winter Pea
    6. Corn
    7. Sunflower
    8. Sorghum
    9. Wheat

    Independent variablesenvironment (choose only one of the following):

    1. full light vs. 40% shaded light (under a shade cloth)
    2. Water (you chose some reduction in watering amount or frequency)
    3. Temperature
    4. Soil type (different greenhouse mediasandy type (perlite/vermiculite), high organic matter type (pro mix has 60% peat moss + pearlite; starter mix has 60% peat moss + vermiculite))
    5. Soil fertility (manipulation of fertilizers)

    You will then have at least two distinct treatments for the study. Each group must prepare three replicates of each treatment and commit to caring for these plants and taking any relevant measurements over the course of the project. Photosynthesis can be measured repeatedly throughout the course of the experiment, but biomass can only be harvested once at the end of the experiment.

    StudiesDiscussion Board 4: Chicana/x/e/o and Latina/x/e/o Studies

    Discussion Board goal:

    1. Discuss about Chicana/x/o and Latina/x/o Americans
    2. Relate what you learned about it to you and your life or interests.

    Discussion purpose:

    The purpose of this discussion is to take what you learn about the materials on Chicana/x/o and Latina/x/o Americans and describe what meaning/significance it has for you. This will also help to process the affective (emotional) and cognitive (mind) and put it into conversation with the rest of us. Here we create a space where we start from where we are at in our learning and initial exposure to the subject.

    Step-by-step prompt directions:

    Please read/watch the materials and write a response and submit via Canvas.

    1. In the readings: tell me at least 5 things that resonated/stood out (or that “spoke to you”, that impacted you in some way, that surprised you, that you learned, that you knew already but “spoke to you” differently, etc). You must choose from at least 3 different materials from this week on Canvas.
    2. Use direct quotations and cite them. THEN explain why you chose those quotations (why they resonated with you).
    3. By Weds Feb 25th please respond to 2 other classmmates. What did they say that resonated with you? Did anything raise questions for you?
    4. To cite: After the quotation put (author, year) (subheading)
    5. Submit to Canvas by the deadline.

    Requirements: Please follow instructions carefully please place each part in a different attachment.

    PART 1-

    Lines and directional forces are all around us. Look to SEE where you can find lines to enhance a design.

    Create 5 line based compositions of the same subject (a representational subject that is made of or suggests line) using any method you wish, drawing, photography, computer, etc. Be sure it is well designed employing line, value, positive/negative shapes rules of composition and balance.

    Explore the subject to its fullest potential. For example: How many different ways can you photograph a telephone pole and it’s wires? Poles and wires can represent lines in a composition, like branches, railings, etc. Get creative!

    Each composition should be different from the next. The more you work with one subject and get to know it the more you see it objectively. So you can do 10-20 photos or drawings and pick the best 5 to present. You should never just settle on the first composition you create. Always consider all the possibilities! At least 4 x 5″ or larger.

    Critique at least 2 other student’s sketches by Friday end of day of the same week so that the notes can be referenced while preparing the final art.

    designs5 Line designs

    Create a series of Line Designs – anything from representational (like draw a living thing in a series using different lines) to non-representational, just making different types of lines. size at least 6″ x 9″ Put a frame around each composition.

    This addresses line quality- the type of line it is.

    1. Broad steady lines with curves
    2. continuous line ( one line that keeps going throughout the work, don’t pick up your pencil or pen until it is done).
    3. broad to narrow line that fluctuates rhythmically (it starts thick and gets thin- could be calligraphic)
    4. narrow line with jerking motion
    5. broad straight fast lines

    Number each one corresponding to the prompt.

    Do Not Copy examples. Just use these types of lines in a design composition of your own. Put a frame around each design and design including to the edges. Don’t just put it in the middle of the rectangle. Think positive and negative space. Do not label inside the frame unless it is part of the design.

    Please make WELL DESIGNED thumbnail compositions in a frame.

    1ST SKETCHBOOK PROJECT: (SCROLL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO BE SURE NOT TO MISS THE CREATIVES PART OF THE ASSSIGNMENT.)

    PART I:

  • Create 10 different Positive /Negativecompositions with simple shapes of black, white and gray. You can use markers, ink or cut paper or paint. Whatever you have available. Work from life or paintings simplifying shapes or just from your imagination. No figure ground reversal occurs just subject and background. This is usually not as closely cropped in for example, like a coffee cup sitting on a table zoomed out.
  • Figure/Ground Reversal- Using black and white cut paper, black sharpie, ink or paint (all creating high contrast) create 10 different figure/ground compositions. Remember figure-ground reversal occurs when you have high contrast and about 50% white and 50% black to push the pos/neg space. Sometimes the black looks forward sometimes the white does, it moves back and forth. Create interesting shapes and Composition!

    Part II: Creative Exercises in Sketchbook: These should be on separate pages or thumbnails from the first part. Two separate images.

    1. Make a mark on the page and then make a strong, balanced composition from it. It can be representational or non-representational.
    2. Tear the page- either a piece off or just tear into the paper. Create a composition or drawing on the paper thats left or incorporate the tear into your drawing. It can be representational or non-representational.

    Photograph all the work (in all 3 parts), and create ONEPDF file that is reduced in size. Really large files sometimes don’t load. A couple of megabytes for a maximum is a good file size.

    **Be sure to label each section or image and Put a frame around ALL of them.

  • Write an e-mail or memo

    Your boss, Pete Rollins, has scheduled three appointments to interview applicants for the position of project manager. All of these appointments are for Thursday, August 22. However, he now must travel to Miami that week. He asks you to reschedule these appointments for one week later. He also wants a brief background summary for each candidate. Replace Rollins with Rollings.

    Although frustrated, you call each interviewee and are lucky to arrange these times. Diego Abrego, who has been a project manager for nine years with Summit Enterprises, agrees to come at 10:30 a.m. Edna Kerber, who is a systems analyst and a consultant to many companies, will come at 11:30 a.m. Maya Oliva, who has an MA degree and six years of experience as a senior project coordinator at High Point Industries, will come at 9:30 a.m. You are wondering whether Mr. Rollins forgot to include Kimberly Yang, operations personnel officer, in these interviews. Ms. Yang is usually part of the selection process. Change Summit Enterprises to Sunrise Enterprises. Change High Point Industries to Point Higher Industry.

    Your task. Write an e-mail or memo () to Mr. Rollins including all the information he needs. Make your message easy to scan and visually appealing.

    Mainstream Media vs Social Media

    Traditional mainstream media act as so-called gatekeepers that vet the news and decide what kind of content gets published. However, social media networks have changed the game. Now anyone with an internet connection can publish anything, even fake news, and reach vast audiences in mere seconds. What are the benefits and dangers of this unprecedented access and speed of distribution?
