Can you think of some characters who are heroic in some fashion? Some possibilities: Emily, in “A Rose for Emily”; the narrator in “The Yellow Wallpaper”; Desiree, in “Desiree’s Baby”; Willy Loman, in “Death of a Salesman”; the grandmother, in “A Good Man is Hard to Find”; any of the characters in “The Open Boat”; Bernice, in “Bernice Bobs her Hair”: any of the narrators in the Harlem Renaissance poems? The narrator in Byron Herbert Reece’s poem “The Stay-At-Home”? Guidelines:
1. Please consult and incorporate at least four sources. You may use more sources, but you may not use fewer without a grade deduction. At least some of the sources need to be something other than a dotcom source – could be a book, an e-book, an academic article, etc.2. Your essay should include some quotes from the primary source (the story itself), and it should also include some quotes or paraphrases from secondary sources (biographers, historians, literary critics). Caution: If you Google the story, you may find information in sites like Wikipedia, Sparknotes, enotes, various free essay sites, cummingsstudyguides, Cliff Notes, various blogs, etc. You may certainly browse through those as a starting point, but for a college level academic essay, these are not considered reliable sources. Do NOT quote them or include them in your works cited page. Your sources should usually be written by authors who hold Ph.D.s, and they should be considered authorities in their field (a professor who holds a Doctorate in Faulkner studies, for example). One way to find good sources is to scroll down to the very bottom of a Wikipedia article. There you willl find a list of reliable academic sources that the author of the Wikipedia article used to write his or her article. You may read and refer to some of those original sources and cite them in your essay, but don’t cite Wikipedia itself.This essay should not just be a collection of quotes strung together, however. Make sure the bulk of the essay is written in your own words, and just include a few short quotes to support your points. Also, don’t just randomly drop the quotes in the essay. Make sure you introduce the quote (establishing the credibility of the source), insert and cite the quote, and analyze the quote. Here’s an example: Acccording to one noted Faulkner biographer, “To read Faulkner means to get used to sex, murder, rape, abortion, impotence, ecstasy, sober brutality and intoxication, human tornados, psychic hurricanes and vampires” (Seyppel 20). Some of those gothic elements are evident in “A Rose for Emily”, as can be seen by looking at the last few pages . . . “So here I introduce the quote, insert and cite the quote, and begin to analyze the importance of the quote.3. Be sure to include both parenthetical citations and a Works Cited List. 4. Your last page shoud include a Works Cited List. Only sources actually mentioned (quoted, summarized, or paraphrased) in your essay should be listed in the Works Cited page.5. * Important: For help with sources, ideas, parenthetical citations, works cited pages, and Writing and Citing in general, access our library web site: http://libguides.northgatech.edu/literature Click on the Writing and Citing tab and then on MLA style.

Reading article attached.2) Choose one of the AAC devices or aides discussed in the reading, class discussion from last week, or your own
personal experience, and discuss how this device/type of aid could be used with a person facing the diagnoses
you chose for Part 1.
Refer to the rubric/guidelines for all formatting requirements. Part 1 requires you to use information from the article make sure to use APA citation!

Research and report on one other cultural death ritual different from your own. Given your own beliefs about life, death, and beyond, what do you wish for your own funeral?

Now that we are preparing to study art of the Early Christian world, we will be encountering a range of images of narrative stories from the Bible and stories about the lives of the holy people Christians call saints. For this assignment, you will write a short paper of approximately 750 words (3 double-spaced pages in a reasonably-sized font, such as Times New Roman 12 point), on an image of your patron saint.Your patron saint may be a saint who shares your name, or whose feast day is your birthday. Alternatively, they may be the patron of a particular profession that interests you, or one of your favourite activities, or one whom people pray to in order to obtain relief from a problem or illness.You will be responsible for finding out who that saint is, and finding a work of art (painting, sculpture, manuscript illumination, engraving, tapestry, etc.) of that saint. This may be a simple image of the saint him- or herself, or a narrative image illustrating a story from the saints life or miracles. Ideally, you will try to find an image that is a work of art from the period covered by this course (i.e., up to about 1300 CE).? If the artist is illustrating an episode from the saints life, what is it?Please attach a copy of the image to your essay.For this assignment, you may use reliable, scholarly, internet sources if you wish.

Making behavioral changes A Reflective Journal
We all have behaviors that we would like change. Some like healthy behaviors such as eating better, having good quality sleep, meditating, and exercising we want to do more of, and some such as smoking, eating junk foods, or drinking too much, we want to do less of. Changing health behaviors is not always as easy or straightforward as it may appear, and thats where exercise psychology principles can play a valuable role in helping people make healthy changes.
For this project you will select a behavior that you may have been thinking about changing, or have tried to change previously without success. Over the few weeks of this course, you will be given an opportunity to reflect on the factors that may help or hinder actually making this healthy change by completing a series of measures and tools often used in health behavior change research. You will also learn the value and limitations of current behavior change theories that may be applied to understanding successful change.
The purpose of this project is threefold:

2) To increase your understanding of what it is like to be the target of a behavior change program, and to complete psychological measures often used in behavioral research.
3) To increase your understanding of how to apply behavioral change theories/interventions to changing a specific health behavior.
FORMAT: The final report should include 2 to 3 double spaced typed pages with 1 margins, excluding title page. Font: Times New Roman. Size: 12
*The assignment is due on November 16th.

Your final paper will include the following components.
1) First state the specific health behavior you wish to change and describe in well-defined terms. For example do aerobic exercise for 30 minutes three days per week at 70% of maximal heart rate, or cut back the number of cigarettes smoked to 3 a day.
Please make sure you pick only one behavior, not a set of behaviors, or several different ones to change all at once. The more focused and precise you are about the behavior the easier it will be to complete the necessary exercises and components of this journal.
2) Once you have chosen a behavior to focus on you will need to take a baseline frequency rating of this behavior for a period of one week. For example, if the behavior you have been thinking of changing is to increase physical activity level, chart how much you currently exercise. Of course now you have to come up with a unit of measurement, such as measuring physical activity a day = miles or minute or hours. Then merely observe, record and keep a chart on the frequency of the target behavior, and prepare a chart. 3) The remainder (and bulk) of your journal entry will iclude
A discussion of your history with this behavioral change (that is how long have you been considering it, have you tried making this change previously, etc.).
A reflection on why you would like to make this change.
Discuss your answers and any personal observations and insights that you may have about your reasons for wanting to change this behavior in your journal entry.
Include the health behavior change theories/interventions you used to change your specific health behavior (references APA style).
For example you may want to answer questions such as;
What are the consequences of this behavior in your life?
How will your life be improved when/if you change this behavior?

Research paper on how the media portrays PTSD as being a bad thing, giving some tv shows as examples

Discuss an accomplishment, event, or realization that sparked a period of personal growth and a new understanding of yourself or others.
