Writers Choice (Powerpoint)

PowerPoint (8-16 sides)
Instructions
Selection a contemporary artifact It can be a book, film, work of art or artist, musical album or artist, piece of architecture or other cultural production.This should be something that has been particularly meaningful to you, or something that you believe is culturally important.

Read the artifact
You should consider both your personal connection and reaction to the object and the wider reception. In other words, you should talk both about its personal meaning and you should do some research into the context production, or reception of the work.

The goal here is to think carefully about your artifact to take seriously the cultural productions that we engage in every day. What values is it promoting? How does it celebrate or critique the current culture?

Present your findings creatively: PowerPoint (8-16 sides)
THE THREE THINGS you must do:
1.)Summary.
Provide a summary of the thing you chose. When was it made? How was it made? What was its reception? Anything else that is important or interesting?

2.) Personal Importance. Why does it matter to you or you believe is culturally important? When did you encounter it?

3.)Wider Importance. Why do you think this thing should matter more broadly? Why should others check it out, or care about it?

CSS-Html-Calendar

Modify the existing HTML code so that it uses an external CSS file instead of inline CSS.

Start by creating a file called calendar.css and use the <link> tag in the header of calendar.html to link it to that page.

Then create CSS rules in calendar.css based on the style attributes of the HTML elements in calendar.html. Group the rules together based on elements class attributes and/or HTML element types, keeping the exact same styling rules.

When you are finished putting the CSS rules in calendar.css, delete the style attributes for all HTML elements in calendar.html and it should look the same.

What type of verbal and nonverbal cues were used to provide this support?
Was it appropriate for the situation and why?

Instructions for completing the Communication Notebook:

For each exercise, you must cite at least two resources to support you and one can be a video.
For the final document, you must use and cite two-course readings (and one must be Bevan) and two-course videos.
Note that you will be required to use and cite Bevan at least once for each exercise, but you should use them much more.

Japanese Civilians during WWII Origins and Others

Part 4: Origins and Others
In an essay of about 5-7 full paragraphs (4-5 sentences each):

Use reliable, scholarly sources from UMGC’s library to help you describe or tell your group’s origin story, its creation myth. Remember that this is myth, not history, so compose the creation story as such. In other words, mythologize the history of the group’s beginnings. It does not have to be true, but it should be rooted in some kind of actual historical event.
Include elements of creation myths that you discovered in Week 4’s Learning Resources and Discussions.
In your creation myth, include one or more of the group’s “others” whether they be monsters, villains, or enemies using some of the information you learned in Week 5’s Learning Resources. Against whom does your group define themselves and why? This “other” should have some roots in the actual history of the group. For instance, hackers might define themselves against cyber security experts, who could be made into an “other” in the story.
