Students must discuss examples from their team collaboration as well as interaction with the community partner, community members, and/or other individuals they encountered during the course of the engagement.Papers should integrate theory and course concepts in analyzing students observations. Concepts can include chapter topics such as team dynamics, leadership, motivation, culture, personality, power, teams, decision making, communication, perception, etc. Incorporate those lessons into a critical observation of students team-based interactions. Some suggestions (but are not limited to): What aspects of the team project were most challenging for you?
What did you learn about organizational behavior from your community partner? Your team?
What individual behaviors, processes, or characteristics did students observe?
Did interaction with team members meet your expectations of participation? If not, how could it have been different? If so, why?
How did the experience assist in your understanding of organizational and/or team dynamics?
Students must also reflect on topics of social justice and the overall outcomes of completing community-based service learning.

ln this last assignment, you will reflect on your growth in writing AND in reading this semester. Be sure you address BOTH parts of this assignment.a) Reearding Writine:Begin by re-reading the three papers you wrote. Reflect on the comments I made, as well as changes you made during the revision process (from draft to final). o What are your strengths?
o Which skills have you improved the most? How?
o Which skills do you still need to work?
o What have you learned about writing? About yourself as a writer?
o Will the writing component of this course help you in your future – in school, in your profession, in life?To help you reflect in specific ways, refer specifically to your own papers-describe or even quote your papers as support. As you would in any other paper, support your points with concrete examples: – lf one of your strengths is that you write interesting introductions, describe one of your introductions and why you think it represents a strength for you.- lf you have improved your ability to write transitions, quote a transition that you wrote in a later paper. You might also describe a place where you didn’t use one in an earlier paper, to show your improvement. – lf you still need to work on developing your ideas, show me a place where you did not do so. How could you have? What other questions or points could you have considered? – lf you are still working on comma splices, show specific examples of places where you have mistakenly placed a comma between two complete thoughts – and how you could fix it.
b) Resardine Readins:
One major goal of this course is to increase literal and analytical comprehension. Another goal is to expand college-level vocabulary. Reflect on how your reading comprehension and vocabulary have changed this semester. Name several specific skills you have learned that help you understand difficult readings (such as highlighting; annotating in the margins; looking up unfamiliar words and references; asking someone when you don’t understand a reading; reading with better concentration; reading lessslowly; reading and concentrating for longer stretches). Which skills are most helpful to you? For which specific readings have you used these skills? lf you have not used these skills, which onescould you use in the future? How has your reading changed as a result of CRL 101? Do you comprehend better? Has your vocabulary increased? Are you less likely to skip over unfamiliar words? What do you still struggle with, regarding college-level reading? How, specifically, can you continue to improve? Do you have a greater recognition of the importance of background knowledge to understand what you’re reading? How might the reading portion of this course help you in your future – in school, in your profession, in life?Note: it could be tempting to tell me what you think I “want” to hear. But I don’t want to hear anything beyond your honest reflection. Your grade on this assignment will be based on your honesty as well as your thoroughness in addressing the points described above. This assignment is not about me as an instructor; it is about you as a student. So please reflect as honestly as possible. lf you did not use the reading techniques we discussed, write that. lf you are not sure how to improve, write that. lf you still don’t understand how to develop your ideas further or move beyond the five-paragraph essay, write that. At least you will enter WRT 100 and other courses knowing the questions to which you want to find answers-and that is an important insight.
This paper should be as grammatically correct as possible, clearly organized and well developed, and it shouldbetwofullpages. Because this will be written as apersonal essay,the use of first person “l” is fine. This assignment does not need to be documented, but it should be in MLA format (see p. 508 and p. 516 for correct format for your heading).

Use the information provided in the textbook to complete the following questions. Be sure to provide thorough responses in grammatically correct sentences, and keep the original question text in your document. Simply download this file from Virtual Campus and insert your responses below each question. Do not copy information directly from the textbook or any other source.

The purpose of the Session Long Project in Trident University classes is to give you the opportunity to explore the applicability of the Module to your own life, work, and place in space and time, and to experiment with the Module to see how the otherwise academically rigorous presentation of a topic may, with more or less work and/or trauma, become “up close and personal.” This is done in a number of different wayssometimes cumulative papers, sometimes practical hands-on experimentation with a tool of some sort, sometimes reflections on a place of work or life. The common thread is personal application, aimed at demonstrating a cumulative knowledge and understanding of the course’s material. The main purpose of the written parts of the assignments is to show that you’ve had some experiences doing the project, that you’ve thought carefully about what they mean for your own education, and that you can make some personal applications of this meaning to your own professional and/or personal understanding. Demonstrating this understanding is actually considerably more important than carrying out any specific step in the project instructions.Sothat’s the general SLP approach for this course. If you have questions at any point about what to do or how to strategize your exercises, please contact your instructor for illumination and assistance.For Module 1, you are required to write about a social network tool you use frequently to interact with your friends.Develop either a presentation or a paper on the following:The technologies behind the social network tool.
Your experience with this tool.

If you select to do a presentation then you can use YouTube’s PodOmatic to post a presentation on your social network tool.If you select to do a paper on the social network tool, then your paper should be short (3-5 pages, not including cover sheet and references) and should cover the three areas listed above.For those of you that would like help in using these media, here is a guide to using YouTube from Google:https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/57924?hl=enHere is a guide from Microsoft on how to use your Webcam:http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/help/support/how-to/webcam/createHere is the PodOmatic link with step-by-step instructions:https://www.podomatic.com/login

Social networking itself is, of course, as old as humanity itselfbut it is not until recent times that technologies specifically focused on the creation and expansion of social networks have come to prominent public attentionto the point where they, arguably, have fundamentally reshaped the information environment. How many of us would like to return to the Bad Old Days of a decade ago, when user concerns were of only minimal interest, most of the Internet still featured one-way information distribution, “friends” were people we actually knew, and dancing cat videos were few and far between. Well, perhaps the latter two aspects still have some meritbut going back from an Internet where users are equal if not more important as content providers and participants of interest to the old one-way channels and Information gods is unlikely to ring many chimes.As source material for your exploration of Web 2.0 technologies we have identified the following sources as required readings. If you don’t really pay attention to this material, it’s really unlikely that you can write an acceptable paper on the topic below, let alone an exceptional one. We spend quite a lot of time trying to identify useful sources for you that bear on our topics for analysis; while we strongly encourage you to conduct your own further research and identify additional useful sources, this should be an add-on to the basic material rather than a substitute for it. Our Module 1 sources include:Majchrzak, A., & More, P. H. B. (Apr 2011). Emergency! Web 2.0 to the rescue! Communications of the ACM. 54(4), 125-132.

[ProQuest database]In addition, the optional readings expand on many of the central points; you may also want to do some independent research of your own to clarify any issues that concern you.Case Assignment
When you have read through the articles and related material, please compose a 6-page paper in which you:Compare the impact of Web 1.0, Web 2.0, and Web 3.0. Provide details on each and discuss how each has evolved from its forerunner Web interface. What do you see as the future of the Web in Web 3.0?
Assignment Expectations
You Will Be Particularly Assessed OnYour ability to inform, comment, and analyzesimply repeating what your sources say does not constitute an adequate paper.
Your ability to apply the professional language and terminology of communications and information systems correctly and in context; you are expected to be familiar with this language and use it appropriately.
Your effective and appropriate use of in-text citations to the assigned readings and other source material to support your arguments

Your essay must contain an introduction that moves from the general to the specific with a thesis statement coming at the end of your introduction. Recommendations for contextual material for your introduction as well as a template for effective introductory paragraphs will be distributed to you in the near future. Your thesis statement must present an argument. Your essay must contain 4 body paragraphs, which in turn, must contain effective topic sentences, lead-in sentences providing a context for your details, citations, and interpretive commentary. Each body paragraph should be at least of a page, typed double-spaced with a 12 pt times new roman font. Your essay must also include a conclusion in which you briefly summarize your position and link your ideas to other texts or vantage points as they relate to your argument. You are required to use 5 secondary sources that will be provided to you in class. They must be used specifically to provide a context for your discussion and to offer a point of contrast with your own observations and analysis of the text. In short, your argument must be represented in opposition to the literary critical studies you consult. You will receive a template demonstrating what this means. We will also do several in-class workshops introducing you to MLA (8th edition) formatting procedures and to how to incorporate primary and secondary sources into your paragraphs. Question:
Analyzing the use of setting, narration, character explore the extent to which Joyce Carol Oatess Where are you Going, Where Have You Been? can be read as an expose concerning the factors in society that render children vulnerable to child predatorsSources:English 111/Research Essay Preparation: Joyce Carol Oatess Where Are You Going? Where Have You Been?/Secondary Sources and Story Analysis (376-384)The Scale of the Problem/From Anna Salters Predators, Pedophiles, Rapists, and other Sex Offenders (New York: Perseus, 2003)
Pg 11–Modern research has confirmed what early researchers found. Dr. Gene Abel and colleagues conducted studies of sex offenders in the late 1980s that asked voluntary sex offender clients how many total offenses they had committed.Two hundred and thirty two child molesters admitted attempting more than fifty-five thousand incidents of molestation. They claimed to have been successful in 38,000 incidents and reported they had more than 17,000 total victims.Evaluating Secondary Sources
From Marie Mitchell Oleson Orbanskis Existential Allegory: Joyce Carol Oatess Where Are You Going? Where Have You Been? in Studies in Short Fiction 15 (1978): 200-203Pg 201–From the outset of the narrative, members of Connies family recognize their powerlessness and thus their difference from her. Pg 203Friends mesmeric influence on Connie further supports my contention that he represents a superhuman force.From John D. Winslows The Stranger Within: Two Stories by Oates and Hawthorne in Studies in Short Fiction 17 (1980): 262-268.Pg 264As her fear grows, Arnold becomes more and more insistent that she go with him and gradually reveals his power over her.Pg 266By offering false reassurances, both protagonists cover up their true involvement and reject the help of someone who might guide them or save them.From Joyce M. Wegss Dont You Know Who I am? The Grotesque in Oatess Where Are You Going? Where Have You Been? in Journal of Narrative Technique 5 (1975): 66-72.Pg 67–Connies parents, who seem quite typical, have disqualified themselves as moral guides for her.Pg 68Since her elders do not bother about her, Connie is left defenseless against the temptations represented by Arnold Friend.Pg 69It is no accident that Arnolds clothes, car, speech, and taste in music reflect current teenage chic almost exactly, for they constitute part of a careful disguise intended to reflect Arnolds self-image as an accomplished youthful lover.

The composition of this mostly despised group is in general disproportionally comprised of poor people ; people of color; males; females; young people ; older adults; high school drop outs ; violent and non-violent offenders ( Are White-Collar Offenders being incarcerated disproportionally?)! Specifically, however, disproportionally has been historically evident with (A) people of color (See Alexander ) and more recently with, (B) drug offenders (See Alexander & Latessa) , (C) the mentally and physically ill (See Latessa & Simon); and (D) more currently the LGBTQ communities. Your assigned readings of historical and contemporary Correctional Works has underscored how these varies sub-groups have gone through a criminalization process and subsequently a prisonization process, which in combination, makes it difficult for many offenders to (re)adjust to society ! These processes have all been legally defined or supported by all three branches of government at one time and presumptively by the Public at Large.

(p.258-Latessa); and lastly the LGBTQ community can be assessed in at least five separate ways as Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, TransGender, or Questionning!
In any case YOU must chose an emphasis that is different from those in your assigned group! Please dialogue with those in your assigned group to avoid duplication!
All papers need to cite legal cases ( Estelle v. Gamble, for example) and legislative acts (PLRA, for example ) that have impacted their assigned topic and specific emphasis, the several amendments, i.e. 1st, 5th, 6th, 8th, 13th and the 14th, should be underscored where they apply , your assigned texts (Alexander, Latessa, and/or Simon) should be cited whichever is appropriate along with other sources; and , of course, your papers should reflect your understanding of the Criminal Justice System in general and the Correctional Continuum ( See Handout) specifically: i.e. Detention, Convictions Sentencing to Probation and/or Confinement in a Minimum, Medium, Maximum, or Super-Maximum facility, and eventually ReEntry-of Offenders to Parole or those at the expiration of their sentence.

In according with the content of our class discussions and your group assignment listed below as A, B, C or D, your paper should reflect on how this specific population has disparately and disproportionally contributes to the Massive Correctional Supervision growth ( Community Correction & Institutional Correction ) and , of course , their eventual ReEntry problems .
