...Focus Reflection & Evaluation Zamzam Ali The focus of my work in Unit 3 studio arts was Transformation. I refined my ideas in Unit 4 by focusing specifically on the transformation that occurs in individuals emotionally, including both aspects of outwardly emotion as well as those hidden internally. Although originally I was drawn to the subject matter of Emotions (mostly those shown through facial expressions and body language) by expanding and looking deeper into it all together I was able to be exposed and influenced by a range of other aspects that may not have been in my line of vision. By adopting the subject matter of Time it has allowed me to have a different outlook and to be influenced by socio-cultural factors such as the medias influence in everyday life and functioning, to the role of women, acceptable and non acceptable behaviours and forms of outlets that was once seen as acts against morality and obedience yet through time and growth of a new generation it has became widely accepted. Potential directions have contributed greatly to the development of my final art works. Initially I had the desire to create a sculpture using wire therefore I had multiple trials using different wire thickness as well as sizes however it presumed to be extremely hard to handle and heavily time consuming. Upon researching different art methods and techniques I came across a new form of pencil drawing called ‘gesture drawing.’ A gesture drawing is basically a quick drawing...

...Week 4 Announcement: June 19-29 Hi everyone, Congratulations to all of you for reaching the final week of this course. It all goes by so quickly. Below I describe all of the work you’ll need to complete during this final week. SUNDAY-TUESDAY, JUNE 19-21 • Complete your research. By now, all of you should have finished all research for the upcoming Recommendation Report. If you haven’t done so, be sure to finish it on Sunday in order to leave at least two days to write the report. • Write the first draft of the Recommendation Report. Please do NOT begin writing this report on Tuesday – give yourself at least two days to work on the writing of this lengthy report. I suggest that you keep the assignment in front of you, and do feel free to take a peek, as useful, at the model Recommendation Reports that I posted in Content, Week 4. Seeing the models will give you a good idea about the organization, design, format, visuals, and length that work well for this assignment. Be careful, though, not to copy the style of writing from the samples – instead, use your own natural business writing style for this assignment. Also, keep in mind that the models don’t always adhere to my assignment criteria, so if you ever see that the models are not following the assignment requirements, follow the assignment and ignore the models. • Post a single file containing your first draft of the Recommendation Report in the dropbox by midnight, Tuesday, June 21.

...make a decision that could affect me in a good way or bad way. About a month or so ago I found a job, with all of the economical problems going on right now I felt so blessed to have a job and knew I needed to take care of it because who knows when another opportunity would come around. This is the first time I had to separate time for school and for work. Luckily, I’m on call and the job is part time. However, this did not make things easier on the day of my math final. I knew it was coming and I needed all of the time I could have to take it and try my best to get a good passing grade. That night I got out of work a bit later than I had expected which already put me in a rushed mood because the final was all I thought about that day, and being able to pass it. In the afternoon before I left to work I knew I had to make a choice, go to work and come home quick to do the best that I can on my test or don’t go to work miss a good day of work and take my final. It was somewhat of a difficult decision but I thought why not go to work and take my final after? Unfortunately, things don’t always work out as planned, as a result my final had a non-passing grade and I have to retake the math class. I know now I need to organize myself much better and cover all bases before making that sort of decision that has affected me in many...

...Evaluation My intention for my exam piece was to continue my work on the human form that I had explored within my personal investigation but apply it to the Mythology question within my exam. Because I wanted to retain my focus on the human figure I focused my work on exploring elements and creatures within mythology that carried similar characteristics and features, e.g. mermaids, sirens, gods and others which also carry animalistic elements such as the Minotaur and Faun. However unlike my personal investigation I was unsure in the beginning as to whether I wanted to continue my focus just on the female form or develop my work further into male representations. Previously within my AS exam work I had kept to a relatively small scale, but during the development to A2 I found I was able to produce larger pieces that contained a greater level of detail and took longer to construct. As the exam was to fulfil 15 hours I decided that I would produce one or two large pieces as part of my final piece, I knew that this would be possible has I had been able to produce a life size figure of a woman and infant within the final 10 hours of my personal investigation. Although I was aware that I wanted to create a large mythological human figure I was unsure as to the exact area that I would limit the subject of my work to, in the beginning I contemplated with the idea of creating a large (but not life size) figure of one creature from within mythology however I had already created something...

...in challenging myself and also looking into different perspectives of the human condition. In my final piece, I produced a side portrait of a human with a ‘look inside their head’. In the project, I completed a variety of pieces in my sketchbook. The first piece I produced was a visual analysis of work by Nikos Gyftakis, and the final piece of work I did was a tonal pencil drawing. I feel I progressed in a lot of the areas of artwork, as my observational skills increased and so did my ability to annotate my work. The two artists I chose for my project were Nikos Gyftakis and Sebastian Eriksson. I like both of their art, and what stands out as a pair is their contrasting perspectives on humans. Nikos Gyftakis produces bright and colourful pieces of the face, in comparison to Sebastian Eriksson, who creates often monotone, thought-provoking and sometimes perturbed. I chose both of them as I wanted to look at all aspects of the human condition, including Nikos Gyftakis’ exterior view on the human features and Sebastian Eriksson’s view on the inside of humans, and their thoughts and inside their heads....

...MM207 Final Project 1. Using the MM207 Student Data Set: a) What is the correlation between student cumulative GPA and the number of hours spent on school work each week? Be sure to include the computations or StatCrunch output to support your answer. My answer : 0.27817234 (from StatCrunch): Correlation between Q10 What is your cumulative Grade Point Average at Kaplan University? and Q11 How many hours do you spend on school work each week? is: 0.27817234 b) Is the correlation what you expected? My answer: No. I expected the correlation to be much higher because the more hours you study should equate to a much higher GPA – in theory that is. c) Does the number of hours spent on school work have a causal relationship with the GPA? My answer: Yes. I was going to say no (because of the low correlation above), until I did a scatter plot. This shows that MM207 Final Project there definitely is a casual relationship between study time and GPA. yuck.

...Reviewers: For my major, I am taking many science classes and for that reason, most of the writing I have done in previous classes has been lab reports. I also have not had an English class since my senior year of high school, so I have not had to write many papers since then. In these previous English classes, most of the writing has been research papers. Comparing this project to previous projects in other English classes, I have had much more flexibility in the topic to write about and I feel that in this class, the project topic is much more applicable to me and my interests, being that it was about my future career. Previously, I did not have much knowledge on different citation systems, how to correctly cite, and for example,...

...kind of library/research work? Offer specific examples from work you completed as part of this class that demonstrates that you have achieved this goal. The most important thing I learned was that the library is so much more than a place to borrow books and study for midterms/finals. First, there is a librarian assigned to your major which is extremely helpful because they are like a mini expert on many of the topics you may need help on. Second, there are many databases with sources that are available online to Fisher students, which can help when doing any type of written submission for a class. Finally, I learned that Rochester has such a vast history that I knew absolutely nothing about before I stepped foot in the class. I used Kate Ross a few times to help locate additional sources for my project. I also used ProQuest extensively for newspaper articles I could use as sources, and I also used the State of Black Rochester book we had for class. 2. The second goal of DEPT 199 is to teach you how to analyze and incorporate research into your own argument, position, solution to a problem, or answer to a question. In what ways does your final research paper (the final draft) demonstrates your developing skill in connection with this goal? Point to specific places in the final paper where your arguments, though uniquely your own, have been developed in conversation with research that you have completed. My final research paper analyzes...

...the fact of Virtucon Investments restructuring its Sales Departments information technology needs. To date, my team has compiled a list of laptop models that best suit our company; and from those, one will be selected which we recommend for purchase. Summary On November 2nd, 2015 Mr. Bigglesworth CFO of Virtucon Investments, notified my IT department within Virtucon that he was exploring the possibility of restructuring its Sales Departments information technology with the purchase of fifty laptop computers.

My mother would not accept this for me, so each night we would read a book together. She would read a page, and then have me read the next page. By doing this every night, I slowly began to improve in both my speech skills and reading. My speech therapist at school also played a vital role in helping me to overcome this challenge. Her desire to help children like me left a large imprint on my life. It was considered that I would continue to go through speech therapy in middle school, but my speech therapist fought so this would not happen. I was so awkward...
