Each question will form a section of the paper and should be labeled as such, e.g. “Section One: Three Types of False Confessions,” and so forth. 1.

...evidence and information from academic texts or credible sources. 1. Starting Your Essay Although there are some basic steps to writing an assignment, essay writing is not a linear process. You might work through the different stages a number of times in the course of writing an essay. For example, you may go back to the reading and notetaking stage if you find another useful text, or perhaps to reread to locate specific information. Start work early You can’t write a successful essay unless you give yourself enough time to read, research, think and write. Don’t procrastinate or leave it until the last minute; start as early as possible. Define the question and analyse the task Writing down everything you know about a topic is not enough to make a good academic essay. Analysing, then answering the essay’s question or task is central. • Be sure that you understand exactly what the question requires you to do. • Identify the key words (like discuss or analyse) and clarify the approach you are required to take. See The Learning Centre guide ‘Answering Assignment Questions’ 2. Researching Your Topic One of the first steps in essay writing is researching. You must research your essay by reading and finding relevant information. Reading on the topic enables you to develop a thesis and answer the essay question. Where to Start? Your starting point for your essay is your initial response to the essay topic or question. Your response is based on what you already know. But this...

...Continuing Academic Success Sheri Coleman GEN/201 August 18, 2014 Lindsey Rudolph, Professor Continuing Academic Success According to Curran and Reivich (2011) “How does goal setting increase performance, achievement, and ultimately well-being” (p. 44)? In my opinion, academic success should be included in one’s model for achieving one’s career goals. While some believe continuing academic success is not required to obtain one's ultimate career goal, academic success is achieved by setting goals, fusing one’s learning style with lessons being taught, applying critical thinking skills and utilizing all available resources. During this first course of continuing my education, I’ve learned the tools necessary to become academically successful as well starting on the path to a successful career. Goal Setting Setting goals, leads to success because there’s a plan being put into motion. According to Lock & Latham 2002, “Research indicates that when an individual sets a goal that individual shows increased direct physical effort, cognitive effort on repeated task, self-reported subjective effort, and physiological indicators of effort” (p.44). Choosing the online course to continue my education allows me to move at my own pace. Setting goals is directive; goals reveal the path in which I need to follow. All of these actions lead to positive outcomes. (Curran & Reivich 2011, Lock & Latham 2002, Locke & Bryan 1969). Smaller and easier to attain...

...Assignment 1B – Written Response 5/4/2016 As an online learner, aiming to be a professional in the field of logistics, I have learned the following: The skills and attributes I need in order to be successful include higher level thinking skills, or “sense-making” (Davies, Fidler & Gorbis 2011, p. 12), and these are critical for decision making to create unique insights. The is because in the logistics industry, smart machines are quickly taking over rote and routine jobs. Another attribute I would need to possess is “cross-cultural competency” (Davies, Fidler & Gorbis 2011, p. 13). This is due to the logistics industry being quite diverse. Being able to adapt and respond to new circumstances is important as what makes a group truly innovative is the combination of different ages, skills, disciplines, etc. Organisational forms and skill requirements are rapidly changing, and I understand that I need to put the right resources together to learn and adapt. Learning online is different because I require a different way of thinking and discipline towards my studies. I am used to learning through the theory “transmissionist model of education” (Murphy 2000) where we may be in a classroom or lecture environment and the teacher at the front of the class is conveying his/her wisdom, known as interpersonal. Initially, I thought studying online would be done in isolation, but that has since changed. Using the blackboard...

...own set of problems and advantages. When delivering the message in writing, there is little immediate feedback to be received. I typically use four modes of written messaging, (1) Email, (2) Instant Messaging, (3) Technical Writings, and (4) Blogging. When doing any of the four, I find it critical to know my audience. Depending on the audience, my delivery will often change to better suit the recipient, especially in my emails and technical writings. For example, I know my audience when I write technically, and because I know who will receive the message, I tend to cater the message towards mechanics and inspectors. If a member of management were to read the same text, their lack of subject knowledge would drive them to ask for clarification. When sending emails and instant messages, I typically know the recipient and tend to tailor the message based on that association. It can be tricky to send instant messages though, even to people I have known for a long time. Since I am unable to use voice fluctuation and facial expression to show excitement, sarcasm, or any other emotion in the message, I don’t know if the meaning of my message was received as I intended it, until I get a response. When delivering a message verbally it is much easier for me to get my point across. When having a one on one conversation, I can tell my message is being received, or not being received by how engaged the recipient is. As an example of this, if I see that the person I am talking to...

...ECON 312 – GDP vs GPI The massive government spending on Hurricane Katrina relief and recovery far outweighed the negative economic effects of the storm. Based solely on the Real GDP figures, we might conclude that the worst natural disaster in U.S. history was actually good for our economy. There is something wrong with our national income accounting system if a natural disaster like Hurricane Katrina ends up being recorded as a positive, despite the suffering and material loss left in its wake. Similarly, the $6-7 billion a month we spend on the Iraq War is simply added into our GDP, although it certainly builds no schools, highways, or oil refineries on American soil. GDP is compiled from our recorded market transactions. Those activities that are excluded from the marketplace are therefore not recorded. There is no accounting for leisure time, household production, underground economic production, and the psychic costs and benefits of various jobs. In addition, the environmental damage committed not just by our production of goods and services, but our very lifestyle, is likewise excluded from the calculation of GDP. What GDP measures as growth is merely increased spending, but it doesn't indicate whether the spending is good or bad. GDP rises with every oil spill, increase in air pollution, and nearly every other environmental disaster. The Genuine Progress Index (sometimes called the Genuine Progress Indicator) is an alternate measure of our national well-being...
