Analytical Reading of Nikky Finney’s Rice Writing Assignment

Review the case analysis, “Incidents For Discussion: Pritchard Soap Co.” on pages 138-139 of your textbook, which illustrates the problems that can arise when project managers are not good communicators. Explain your own strengths and weaknesses as a communicator, and describe how you will capitalize on your strengths and mitigate your weaknesses when leading a project team. Consider how you will apply project management communication strategies to your final project. Your entry must be at least 200 words. No references or citations are necessary.

After reading Chapter 11: “Designing Print and Online Documents” (Markel and Selber) and watching the “Document Design” PowerPoint lecture, turn your attention to the sample technical document linked here. Preview the document: Spend some time studying the design of the document and how those choices suggest a specific audience(s) and purpose(s). In other words, how does the design of the document enable the function of the document? When you have finished studying the document, write a response that addresses the following questions. Support your claims with specific evidence from the document: Markel notes that technical communication serves many purposes, which fall into two broader categories: to “help others learn about a subject, carry out a task, or make a decision” and “to reinforce or change attitudes and motivate readers to take action” (3-4). What is (are) the primary purpose(s) of this document? How and why? What is the relationship between the intended purpose(s) of the document and the document’s primary audience(s)? How and why? Use Markel’s discussion of audience-driven factors (8) to guide your discussion. Finally, how effective is this document in terms of clarity, accessibility, and professional appearance? What recommendations might you make in terms of increasing effectiveness? How and why?

Write according to the info on the three exercises, the detail instruction is on the third pages, answer some questions

Choose two objects in the current chapters in your textbook that are thematically related (landscapes, portraits, religious subjects, historical monuments, etc.). Write an essay of at least 450 words using 12 point font and double-spaced text) comparing the formal treatment and iconography of each work. Be sure to identify each object by indicating the artist, title, and date of production. Your essay should address how similarities and differences contribute to your understanding of each work’s meaning or artistic significance. You should analyze these points: stylistic choices (e.g., abstract, naturalistic, idealistic, realistic), function or symbolism of the pieces (What were they used for? Do they communicate a message? Are they sacred or secular works of art), cultural context (e.g., how might the way of life at the time and place the pieces were created affected their function and style? Do historical events relate to the image or story depicted?). In addition, I expect you to refer to the course readings, including the primary readings I uploaded to BlackBoard, in the essays. You must cite at least one source that is not our text book. Use Chicago-Turabian style notation for any sources that you need to document as references in footnotes. Double-space your text and list your name and the date in the header on the first page. In almost all cases, you should italicize the title of a work of art. Consult the Chicago-Turabian sample essay I provided you for more information concerning formatting. Include at least two illustrations. Submit your text in DOC, DOCX or PDF format. Due Friday night, 11:59 p.m. Use two objects which I uploaded two different self-portrait to compare. THANK YOU! I expect you to refer to the course readings, including the primary readings I uploaded to BlackBoard, in the essays. You must cite at least one source that is not our text book.” The source is that I uploaded two PDF files which is class 03 and class 04. If you want it, you can use it.

The next step in the process of acquiring information is to move past what we can think of onto what we can see. That is, we have the way things are done and how to do them but we have not yet touched the work. In this case, we begin by reviewing some information regarding a trend towards bipedalism based on an arbitrary scale. That is, we use diagnostic features we can see and judge for ourselves. Although some may believe arbitrary assessments to be vague or assumptive, this step is sometimes used by those who know about the subject. That is we have spent many weeks getting to the point where you are trained observers. That is what you see matters and you will now “show what you can do with what you know.” This quick step is used to give immediate feedback to guide the path of inquiry. For example, an arbitrary scale can give values which can be interpreted as useful or not. The values can also be added to a graph which may show connections, divergence, and trends. Although the arbitrary assessments may be cursory they can be used to help make predictions. The predictions can aid in a direction of inquiry such as future experimental design to pursue a lead or quickly and simply rule out an assumption. An assumption in science can be either a premise for an idea based on experience, or a prediction based on prior data. That is, the premise from an informed previous statement can lead to inquiry. Informed statements come from experience or existing data. Therefore, an assumption in science is very different from how assumptions are used in daily activities by many non-scientists. Here we may assume that the diagnostics features listed in the drawing plantigrade, digitigrade, unguligrade highlight things of interest in relation to patterns of locomotion, in this case distinctions of speed and power compared to bipedalism. Grade scale x/30 x 20 = score 12.1. Bipedalis.Start with an ABC about each foot grade. Now that we have gone past the basics and the surprise that other animals have very similar skeletal structures it is time to review the basics of locomotion. Later, other forms of locomotion will be investigated in depth, but, for now it is wise to stay with what is familiar and the basic three. On the drawing for anthbiolab.mckendricksj.footgrades.plantigrade.digitigrade.unguligrade above, observe the normal standing postures and note the following for each species A, B,and C: (3 points) On the drawing above note the angle of the hip to the femur by the scribed line(s) down to the caudal line (a line towards the tail) of the hip in connection to the femoral line (of the femur). Estimate the angles of hip to femur by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) for each species: Species A what is angle 1 = Near to 180 deg Near to 115 deg. Near to 95 deg. Species B what is angle 1 = Near to 180 deg Near to 115 deg. Near to 95 deg. Species C what is angle 1 = Near to 180 deg Near to 115 deg. Near to 95 deg. (1 point) Note the location of the calcaneus relative to the point of contact at ground level and length relative to the tibia by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) for each species: Species A the location of item 2, the calcaneus to the ground is- On the ground and shortest compared to tibia Off the ground and longer compared to tibia Very high off the ground and longest compared to tibia Species B the location of item 2, the calcaneus to the ground is- On the ground and shortest compared to tibia Off the ground and longer compared to tibia Very high off the ground and longest compared to tibia Species C the location of item 2, the calcaneus to the ground is- On the ground and shortest compared to tibia Off the ground and longer compared to tibia Very high off the ground and longest compared to tibia (1 point) Note the relative length of the metatarsals compared to the other species by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) for each species; Species A Short Short to medium Very long Species B Short Short to medium Very long Species C Short Short to medium Very long (1 point) Note the position of the pedal phalanges in relation to the metatarsals especially note hooves as on the ground but not the pahalages by selecting the one answer which fits (delete the wrong answers) for each species: Species A On-ground- inline On-ground-not-inline Off-ground-not- inline Species B On-ground- inline On-ground-not-inline Off-ground-not- inline Species C On-ground- inline On-ground-not-inline Off-ground-not- inline (1 point) Note the pedal phalanges in relation to the tiba phalanges by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) for each species: Species A On-ground- and 90 deg. On-ground- and greater than 90 deg. Off-ground- and greater than 90 deg. Species B On-ground- and 90 deg. On-ground- and greater than 90 deg. Off-ground- and greater than 90 deg. Species C On-ground- and 90 deg. On-ground- and greater than 90 deg. Off-ground- and greater than 90 deg. (1 point) If a species has an angle of femur to hip bone is closer to 90 deg., then they are better at jumping without a run. Select the species one or more which has that by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) best for power related to speed and jumping: A: human B: Dog C: Deer (1 point) If a species has a calcaneus not in contact with the ground and has a longer length relative to the tibia, then they are able to have a burst of speed and jump easily exceeding what humans can do. Select the species, one or more, which has that characteristic by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) best for power related to speed and jumping: A: human B: Dog C: Deer (1 point) If a species has a relatively longer calcaneus length when compared to the other species then they are better at jumping without a run. Select the species one or more which has that by selecting the answer(s) which fits (delete the wrong answers) best for power related to speed and jumping: A: human B: Dog C: Deer (1 point) If a species has pedal phalanges in relation to the metatarsals which are not in line and have less contact overlength to the ground then they are able to have a burst of speed and jump easily exceeding what humans can do. Select the species, one or more ,which has that characteristic by selecting the one answer which fits (delete the wrong answers) best for power related to speed and jumping: A: human B: Dog C: Deer 10. (1 point) If a species has the tibia in relation to the pedal phalanges which are in excess of 90 degrees then they are able to have a burst of speed and jump easily exceeding what humans can do. Select the species one or more which have that by selecting the one answer which fits (delete the wrong answers) best for power related to speed and jumping: A: human B: Dog C: Deer 11. (10 points) From questions 1 thru 5 fill in the table to evaluate which species ranks the lowest for power for speed and jumping. Total each time A species scored a 1. 12. (2 points) Questions 1 thru 5 and 11 indicate that Species A is unique. What are they limited by, what can’t they do? 13. (2 points) Questions 6 thru 10 indicate that species B and C have less limitation and can do what? 14. (6 points) Why is this interesting to learn that humans even when compared to dogs and deer, to say nothing about them to top predators, have far less abilities in relation to their bipedalism?

Kindly use this example. Policy Brief Infectious Diseases, Tuberculosis in India From: Secretary of Health, India To: Minister of Finance, India Introduction: 400,000 Indians die each year from TB. It is the leading cause of death in the ages 15-45 and has the greatest affect on the poverty stricken regions. Several risk factors for TB are HIV, lack of knowledge, urban congestion and pollution, barriers in health care, and cultural differences. TB causes large economic losses, financial burdens to poor families, losses in education, and even familial rejection of infected women. To address TB we must promote DOT in the poorest sectors to improve knowledge and treatment, ensure efficient technology for diagnosis, and target HIV prevalent areas for proper treatment for co-infected patients.
