/in /by

Choose one important historical development or series of events from the Baroque Period and describe one music compositions connected to it in a short paper of 250-300 words.

You might:
Reflect on the drama turn to art and literature in the Baroque period and associate this with one music composition from the Baroque
Reflect on the new interest in the emotions (for example in philosophy such as Descartes Passions of the Soul) and a Baroque composition that might be heard as reflective of certain emotions
Reflect on the rise of the political absolutism and one composition performed for a major ruler of the time

Your paper should contain three or more paragraphs:
Paragraph 1: a description of the historical development or series of events
Paragraph 2: the identification of a music composition associated with that historical development or series of events by its title, composer, and time period and a brief description of its music
Paragraph 3: discussion of how the music is associated with its historical context
Your paper should contain 250-300 words.

Citations
Any use of sources must be documented in MLA, APA, or Chicago-Turabian style [https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/2/].  You should only use signed sources (that is, sources that have a named author).  You may use Wikipedia to help find signed articles, but Wikipedia should not be used as a source itself.  Anytime you directly quote more than a phrase of five words from another source, you must enclose them in quotation marks.  Reserve quotations for truly unique formulations or controversial statements; paraphrase (and cite) your source whenever possible. 

The more important musical terms you properly use, the better your paper will be (try to use about 8 of these terms). When you use these terms put them in bold.

Delirium

/in /by

Mr. White is a 72-year-old man, with a history of hypertension, COPD and moderate dementia, who presents with 4 days of increased confusion, nighttime restlessness, visual hallucinations, and urinary incontinence. His physical exam is unremarkable except for tachypnea, a mildly enlarged prostate, inattentiveness, and a worsening of his MMSE score from a baseline of 18 to 12 today.

Mr. White’s presentation is most consistent with an acute delirium (acute change in cognition, perceptual derangement, waxing and waning consciousness, and inattention).

What is the most likely diagnosis to frequently cause acute delirium in patients with dementia?
What additional testing should you consider if any?
What are treatment options to consider with this patient?

n the essays or videos, describe a learning activity that you have done (provide the example with your assignment) and how you successfully showed proficiency in each section (bullet) of the competency.  For example,  you have an activity from an English course and want to use it for the Written Communication Competency.  So, you need to explain how parts or the whole of the activity include the aspects of the competency:

1* Choose and narrow a subject.

2* Identify a purpose and formulate an appropriate thesis statement.

3* Organize ideas effectively and develop them within a logical paragraph structure.

4* Support points clearly with adequate and specific evidence.

5* Demonstrate command of accepted English sentence structure and grammar.

6* Revise and edit according to standard English practice, including attention to punctuation and appropriate vocabulary.

7* Acknowledge all sources by documenting research according to a recognized manual.

You can either use screen shots or quote parts of the activity to explain how this evidence you are providing meets the assignment requirements & competency.  So- if you cited sources at the end then you can state that for #7 you documented your research according to APA/MLA etc…then provide a screen shot of the page.  Try your best to provide evidence for 100% of the competency components.
