...Art Criticism Art criticism involves art description, formal analysis, interpretation and value judgment (Elkins, & Engelke, 2003). The paper gives an art criticism of a piece of art I saw at Lyman Allyn Art Museum by L.F Baeles titled On the Lake. [pic] Identification Title: On the Lake Artist: L.F Baeles Date: 1885 Medium: Oil on Canvas Size: Na Location: Lyman Allyn Art Museum Description On the Lake is a painting art done by an American artist L.F Beales in 1885. The painting was exhibited at Lyman Allyn Art Museum during 2015 august exhibition at the museum. The art is done on canvas using oil paint. In the painting, one can see a boat on the lake with two sailors. One sailor is a man, and the other is a woman. The woman in the boat is decently dressed, and she is peddling the boat. The man is gazing at the large landscape at the end of the lake. At both edges of the lake, there is a landscape covered with big bush. At a distance, there is another boat occupied by two sailors. The two sailors at the distant boat can be seen conversing with each other. The sky is very brighter with scattered brown clouds indicating that it was on a summer evening (Leiber, Alden, Mœglin-Delcroix, & Purves, T. 2001). From the look, the painting represents a couple enjoying a date at the lakeside on a summer evening. However, the man is depicted as naïve looking on how he is dressed and is being distracted by the large landscape covered with bushes. The woman is...

...Being a printmaking major I was very interested in work done by Andy Warhol. Learning about his history, techniques and why he does some of the things he does was the reason I picked him to write this research paper. I have selected three different authors that have both similar and different opinions for Warhol. They each talk about specific pieces and talk about different aspects that support the reasons they have in their opinion for Warhol. To start off I will be talking about the opinions I have towards this artist. Printmaking is the process of printing on normally paper in which the artist uses ink to convey multiple images that do not necessarily have a photographic look to them. This allows an artist to manipulate images and able...

...The type of music she plays is rock. The next contemporary of King is James Taylor who was born in 1948 and is a singer-songwriter. The type of music he plays is folk rock. The last contemporary of King we will be writing about is Jackson Browne who was born in 1948 and is a singer-songwriter. The type of music he plays is folk and country rock. The next thing we will be looking at is what makes Carole King’s style unique and why she is considered to be important. One way Carole King is unique is that her songs felt personal which made her songs feel relatable. King also showed unique point of view as a woman during the 70’s when women’s roles were changing in America. King is considered to be important because of how much she has influenced artists to this day. These artists include Billy Joel, Elton John and The Byrds. The next thing we will write about is the people that influenced her...

...Anxiety Sensitivity and Risk-Taking Behaviors of Working Students Research Paper In Partial Fulfillment for the Requirements in Technical English By: Alnas, Kyle Bryan J. Balisacan, Meashelle Jan P. Sato, Shomi P. Chapter 2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE This chapter presents the literature and studies made by various educators which are found relevant to the present study. Relevant, related literatures were reviewed and analyzed to give support to the study undertaken. This chapter presents the discussion made by the different authorities which served as the backbone of the present research inquiry. Anxiety Sensitivity and Risk Taking Behavior Risk-taking refers to participation in behaviors that could lead to an undesirable or dangerous outcome (Byrnes, Miller & Schafer, 1999). Although risk-taking can be adaptive when the benefits of a behavior outweigh the costs or are more probable than the undesirable outcome, it can also be maladaptive when the opposite is true. Reason and judgment are used when assessing risk to determine if the potential gain of a behavior outweighs potential loss (Kahneman, 2003), and research suggests that personality and individual difference variables influence risk perception and risk taking behavior. (Dewberry, Juanchich & Narendran, 2013; Kozhevnikov, 2007). Studies have shown that the Big-5 personality factors (i.e., openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism) exhibit different relationships with risk-preference...

...Takako Hirokawa, Noah Finkelstein, and H. J. Lewandowski† Department of Physics, University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309 (Dated: March 4, 2014) In response to national calls to better align physics laboratory courses with the way physicists engage in research, we have developed an epistemology and expectations survey to assess how students perceive the nature of physics experiments in the contexts of laboratory courses and the professional research laboratory. The Colorado Learning Attitudes about Science Survey for Experimental Physics (E-CLASS) evaluates students’ shifts in epistemology and affect at the beginning and end of a semester. Also, at the end of the semester, the E-CLASS assesses students’ reflections on their course’s expectations for earning a good grade. By basing survey statements on widely embraced learning goals and common critiques of teaching labs, the E-CLASS serves as an assessment tool for lab courses across the undergraduate curriculum and as a tool for PER research. We present the development, evidence of validation, and initial formative assessment results from a sample that includes 45 classes at 20 institutions. We also discuss feedback from instructors and reflect on the challenges of large-scale online administration and distribution of results. I. INTRODUCTION Laboratory courses offer significant opportunities for engagement in the practices and core ideas of science. Laboratory course environments typically have apparatus, flexible...

...orLabor Unions: Aging Dinosaur or Sleeping Giant? The Labor Movement and Unionism Background and Brief History Higher wages! Shorter workdays! Better working conditions! These famous words echoed throughout the United States beginning in 1790 with the skilled craftsmen (Dessler, 1997, p. 544). For the last two-hundred years, workers of all trades have been fighting for their rights and seeking methods of improving their living standards, working conditions, and job security (Boone, 1996,p.287). As time went by, these individuals came to the conclusion that if they work together collectively, they would grow stronger to get responses to their demands. This inspired into what we know today as labor unions. A labor union is an organized group of workers whose purpose is to increase wages and influence other job conditions for its members (Parkin, 1998,p.344). These labor unions can be divided into two types: craft unions and industrial unions (World, 1998). A craft union is a union whose membership is restricted to workers who possess an identifiable skill (Robinson, 1985,p. 69). These members tend to be better educated and trained, and more unified because of common interests (World, 1998). An example of a craft union is the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (World, 1998). On the other hand, an industrialized union is a group of workers who have a variety of skills and job types but work for the same industry (Parkin, 1998, p. 344). Unions of this type include...

On January 15, 2015, RealityTrac, one of the nation’s leading reporters of housing data, declared the foreclosure crisis had ended. Whether or not their declaration proves true, the aftermath of the crisis will be felt for years to come. During the crisis it is estimated more than five million families lost their homes to foreclosure. Federal, state and local responses to the crisis changed laws and perceptions regarding foreclosure. Despite these changes, we end the crisis much the way we began---with a nationwide foreclosure system mistrusted and disliked by lenders and consumers alike. This paper examines the responses to the crisis in an effort to determine what worked, what did not, and where foreclosure law should go from here. In the end, it is clear that we need...

...Risk and Protective Factors for Depression: Implications for Prevention Depression in Children and Adolescents Linking Risk Research and Prevention Judy Garber, PhD Abstract: The National Institute of Mental Health has called for translational research linking basic knowledge about vulnerabilities that underlie mood disorders to the development of effective preventive interventions. This paper highlights research about risk factors for depression in children and adolescents and links it to current knowledge about interventions aimed at preventing depression in youth. Basic epidemiologic and clinical research indicates that increased risk for depression is associated with being female; a family history of depression, particularly in a parent; subclinical depressive symptoms; anxiety; stressful life events; neurobiological dysregulation; temperament/personality (e.g., neuroticism); negative cognitions; problems in self-regulation and coping; and interpersonal dysfunction. These vulnerabilities both increase individuals’ chances of encountering stress and decrease their ability to deal with the stress once it occurs. Although several existing depression-prevention studies have targeted one or more of these risk factors, the efficacy of these various prevention programs for youth with different combinations of these risk factors needs to be investigated further. Most existing depression-prevention programs in youth have used cognitive– behavioral techniques, with some success...
