Explain how well your example fits into the elements of your chosen category.Example questions to help you complete this activity: Did your example of the gates of the unknown match up with the information given in your readings?

As we have learned from our readings, the monomyth, or the Hero’s Journey, is a story that is universal, archetypal, and recognizable simply because we are human. For this activity, you will apply your understanding of the elements of the Hero’s Journey to the movie, Troy.Begin by completing the required readings for this module and by reviewing your notes from Module 1, particularly the elements of the Hero’s Journey, as well as the film, Troy. Next, return to pages 220-223 in your text. Choose one of the following three topics: gates of an unknown zone
in the belly of the whale
the road of trialsThen, in your original post: Analyze how the events in the film fit into the category you have chosen from the list above (gates of an unknown zone; in the belly of the whale; the road of trials). For example, if you choose gates of the unknown zone as your topic, you will need to choose one of the main characters in the film and discuss the point in the film where that character reaches the gates of the unknown zone.

Was the main character aided by a supernatural guide? Had the hero already set out on his adventure when he reached the gates of the unknown zone?
Did the hero encounter a threshold guardian? How did that guardian represent the limits of the heros current life? Did the guardian assist the hero or was the guardian deceitful?
If you choose belly of the whale as your category, evaluate your chosen characters actions by comparing the details from the film with the information on page 220 of your text in the paragraph that begins The hero is swallowed up

Suppose you want to study the progression of sexual intimacy in dating couples. You are interested in knowing how long, on average, the two people have known each other or have been dating when they first engage in various intimate behaviors (kissing, erotic touching, nudity, genital touching, oral sex, intercourse). What kind of study would you propose?

How would you obtain subjects? Exactly how would you go about gathering your data? What methodological problems do you think you might encounter?- In your study of dating and sexual behaviors, how would you ensure that your study does not violate ethical considerations?

illustrate how it can be used in explaining and understanding real life scenarios and where it fails to.

Feminism is an established political ideology or theory in IR that is very broad, but is mainly concerned in, but not limited to, womens rights and gender inequality. Some of the theorys goals are shedding light on womens absence from decision-making and institutional structures, further exposing of gender as a social construct and how power distribution depends on it, illustrating womens marginalization in global politics, and many more. However, in my paper I will be focusing on genders power distribution by explaining sexual violence, abuse, and exploitation by one sex to the other.
After researching for a current event that I could use to show the application of feminism, I found the case of sexual abuse and exploitation by UN peacekeepers in African countries like DRC, Haiti, and Liberia. The sexual abuse occurs to children and women who are unable to protect themselves or are doing it for financial rewards. Its not a recent phenomenon at the UN, as initial sex abuse reports by UN were reported since 2012, however, its still an ongoing and occurring issue that is still being investigated and alternative solutions for it are being produced by scholars, UN officials, and other concerned countries. Thus, I thought I could look at it, from a feminist lens, while it is still evolving, and try to break it down to its basic elements in order to better explain it.
To help me research this event and have a better understanding of feminism as a theory, I have looked for multiple scholar sources and have found some that I think will be tremendously beneficial for me. For my own understanding of feminism and better explaining, I will be referring to the classic Bananas, Beaches and Bases: Making Feminist Sense of International Politics by Enloe. Furthermore, I have gathered multiple scholarly articles about the UN peacekeepers sexual abuse issue, articles from years ago to ones written this year. For example, Sexual Exploitation by UN Peacekeeping Forces a Feminist Analysis of the Gender and Class by M. ElMorally, master thesis Sexual Exploitation and Abuse by UN Peacekeeping Personnel: The Impact of Troop Contributing Countries Societal Norms by Safiya Nanji, and Sexual Exploitation And Abuse by U.N Peacekeepers Why The Problem Continues to Persist by professors Chalmers and Outshoorn.
Moreover, regarding my papers format, I will begin by explaining the theory of feminism in detail by explaining its general assumptions regarding global politics, how a feminist observe and interpret interactions between world actors, and what other types of feminism there are. Then, I will narrow my scope of focus to the theorys most important aspects that I will be talking about. After that,

Analyze quantitative and qualitative data using biostatistics, informatics, computer-based programming and software, as appropriate.

The intent of your effort is to alert Troop B communities about farm to table food-related issues. When doing this be sure to include definitions of biological, chemical, or physical agents. Then reference these definitions to build meaning. Please see the Announcements for the specific topic focus as this will change seasonally. Please review Modules 1 and 2 for resources on how to create the projects. Group A will create a twitter campaign. The twitter campaign will follow the guidelines you defined in the M1 Modes of Outreach Worksheet and should include at least 14 tweets which will run over a two week period at the beginning of the summer vacation. Group B will create research brief. The research briefs should be aimed at food service professionals. You should assume these professionals have five years of experience in the field, at least a four year degree, and a 12th grade reading level. The research brief must discuss the research and findings of primary research. Be sure to include a full link to the journal article you are reviewing within the text of the research brief. For all projects, links to additional information must be included. QR codes need to be included in all trifolds and research briefs. The QR Codes do not need to be active, but you must indicate to which website it is linked. Competencies: 3. Interpret results of data analysis for public health research, policy, or practice. 7.
