  1. Give a specific example from Shetterly to show what an appeal to our sense of logic or logos looks like using data, facts, research and explain why she gave this specific example for her intended audience. In other words, why would this logos appeal be especially persuasive for her target audience?
  2. Give a specific example from Shetterly to show what an appeal to our sense of emotion or pathos looks like using stories of individuals’ suffering or triumph, and explain why she gave this specific example for her intended audience. In other words, why would this pathos appeal be especially persuasive for her target audience?
  3. Give a specific example from Shetterly to show what an appeal to our sense of credibility or ethos looks like using valid source info., the writer’s credentials, etc., and explain why she gave this specific example or detail for her intended audience. In other words, why would this ethos appeal be especially persuasive for her target audience?
  4. Typically, a combination of all three rhetorical appeals makes our discussion particularly compelling for our readers. How can we use these examples of appeals to logic (logos), emotion (pathos), and credibility (ethos) to make our own writing well-supported and persuasive ?

Los Angeles Valley College Democratic and Republican Parties Discussion

Question Description

I’m working on a political science question and need guidance to help me learn.

For maximum points, a well rounded short form essay should reach at least 3 pages double spaced or 1 1/2 single spaced .

The rubric included will give you criteria to hit for each point level. Meaning what type of work constitutes an A, B, C, etc.

You are choosing again to write on 1 essay topic out of the 5 different topics provided.

Sources that can be used: OpenStax, documentaries, articles provided and scholarly articles of educational based websites (with websites included as a footnote each time you refer to a quote or an example). Sources NOT to be included, Wikipedia, Quizlet, any student forums which share essays, or further obvious sites like that. I trust that you know the proper outlets for research used for educational purposes. Plagiarism review is added on to all Final submission papers, to be free from this, always use quotes and provide references when you use someone else’s words. The rest of the writing is simply your own analysis of the material. Points are not taken off for grammar mistakes/spelling etc, but of course spell check everything to the best of your ability.

And lastly, this is more of an essay on your thoughts and perspective of the material and display of knowledge with what you learned. Quotes can be used, but kept at a minimum since I’ll be grading your own work . A good rule of thumb with papers is to keep quotes at 15-20% of writing at most, the rest should be your own sentences.

Topics:

1) Detail the course of Civil Rights in this country in terms of US Amendments, civil law, practice, etc. What laws were implemented to promote equality? You may chose any group of people to focus on and discuss their path with civil rights. Lastly, include your thoughts their civil rights stand in 2021.

2) Discuss the role between social media and the government. How are these two connected? In terms of public opinion, what specific examples have you learned about how social media can influence politics?

3) Explain in detail the why America runs on a 2 -party system and how each of these two parties have evolved and what they mean to America today. Do you feel that more parties should be included? Why or why not?

4) Discuss the checks and balances system we have with the legislative, executive and judicial branch. With this unique system, discuss how Congress, the role of the Presidency, and the Supreme Court are interwoven together. Include any situation in history or modern times that magnified the relationships between them. For example, with the passing of Ruth Ginsberg last year, picking a new lifetime Supreme Court judge came head on with the Presidency. You can discussion this situation or bring up another example.

5) Go into further detail about the U.S foreign policy from what you already discussed in Chapter 17. Bring up an example that Openstax referenced and go into further detail discussing the elements of international politics, the consequences, the outcome etc. Be sure to use scholarly examples only once you research outside of OpenStax. Use their references as well for further reading.

Florida National University Dietary Supplements Discussion

Question Description

I’m working on a nursing discussion question and need guidance to help me study.

Herbal Supplements:

The practice of using herbal supplements dates back thousands of years. Today, there is a renewal in the use of herbal supplements among American consumers. However, herbal supplements are not for everyone. In fact, some herbal products may cause problems for people treatments for chronic ailments. Because they are not subject to scrutiny by the FDA or other governing agencies, the use of herbal supplements is controversial.

Herbal supplements are products made from plants for use in the treatment and management of certain diseases and medical conditions. Many prescription drugs and over-the-counter medicines are also made from plant derivatives. These products contain only purified ingredients and, unlike herbal supplements, are closely regulated by the FDA. Herbal supplements may contain entire plants or plant parts. Herbal supplements come in all forms: dried, chopped, powdered, capsule, or liquid, and can be used in various ways.

Please address the following:

  • Discuss advantages and disadvantages of dietary supplements, including adverse reactions, drug-drug interactions, drug-food interactions, and specific laboratory issues that may arise from using these products.
  • Discuss the position of the FDA and other governmental agencies on over the counter herbal supplements. Support your post with at least 2 evidenced-based guidelines published within the last 5 years.

You are only required to post your initial posting. No response to peers are required this week. All posts must be referenced as mentioned above and written in APA 6th edition format.

University of Phoenix Code of Ethics of the Educators Discussion

Question Description

I’m working on a writing case study and need an explanation to help me learn.

Code of Ethics and Case Studies

Educators are bound by a professional code of ethics. This professional code of ethics often incorporates legal obligations to which educators are also bound. The Code of Ethics and Principles of Professional Conduct of the Education Profession in Florida
is a collection of standards to which all educators in the state of Florida are bound. Similarly, educators across the nation must follow their respective states’ code of ethics.

In this assignment, you will research and become familiar with codes of ethics that guide your work as an educator. You will access your state’s code of ethics of the education profession and the national Code of Ethics (NEA) https://www.nea.org/resource-library/code-ethics-educators (Links to an external site.) . To complete the assignment, you will determine the appropriate and legal courses of action in response to three case studies.
Directions:
Part I:
To begin this assignment, read the codes of ethics for the following
1. National – National Education Association NEA: Code of Ethics of the Education Profession (https://www.nea.org/resource-library/code-ethics-educators (Links to an external site.))
2. State (Locate your state’s code of ethics. Examples are provided below.)

are provided below.)
CEC (Council for Exceptional Children) Code of Ethics http://www.cec.sped.org/Standards/Ethical-Principles-and-Practice-Standards?sc_lang=en (Links to an external site.)
Summarize the main legal and ethical components from the national, state, and professional codes of ethics in a brief, but informative narrative that includes a discussion of the following focal questions: :
Who or what is the educator’s primary concern?
How can the educator strive to achieve and sustain the highest degree of ethical conduct?
What are the types of behaviors (e.g., bullying, child abuse, etc.) that the educator should report to administration?
What are the reasons for suspension of a professional?

Part II:
Review and respond to the following case studies within the context of the codes of ethics:
1. Case Study 1 Action Plan – Abuse, Neglect, and Other Signs of Distress: You are a new special education teacher in an elementary school and notice that one of your students consistently comes to school in the morning with dirty clothes, body odor, and suspicious bruises on his arms. According to the ethics codes and district faculty policies, what should be your plan of action for addressing this issue?
Use the Websites below or review your state and district policies as a basis for developing your plan of action, noting references to state and/or district policies as appropriate.

(Links to an external site.)
2. Case Study 2 Action Plan – Ethical Use of Technologies: All teachers in your school have a laptop to use in their classrooms and for instructional planning at home. When the computer was delivered, you briefly reviewed the district policies during a departmental meeting; however, during the past six months, several teachers have been questioned about their Internet and e-mail use with these laptops. You realize that you must use school property appropriately. Based on the ethics codes and district faculty policies, what should be your plan of action for using the laptop?
Use the Web sites below or review your state and district policies as a basis for developing your plan of action that fulfills the expected obligation to students, the public, and the education profession to correct the behavior described in the case study.

http://www.broward.k12.fl.us/sbbcpolicies/docs/P5306,000.pdf (Links to an external site.)

3. Case Study 3 Action Plan – Student Information and Records: As a new special education teacher, you are assigned to teach a remedial reading class in which three students are consistently not showing progress. After reviewing the students’ records (e.g., academic achievement progress in other courses, attendance and disciplinary records, intervention plans and other test scores, and state standardized test scores) you develop highly effective instructional strategies for meeting these students’ learning needs. Since your instructional approach has proven to be so successful, several teachers approached you with sharing the students’ background information, as well as your instructional strategies. You are concerned about infringing on the students’ privacy rights; consequently, you develop a plan of action to address the teachers’ requests, but also address student records concerns.
Use the Web sites below or review your state and district policies as a basis for developing your plan of action that fulfills the expected obligation to students, the public, and the education profession to correct the behavior described in the case study.

Reflect on the application of this case study to your school responsibilities. What must you do to avoid this
type of professional and ethical conflict in the future.

Part III:
Identify and describe three additional resources for use by special education teachers who wish to avoid professional and ethical conflicts.
Examples of additional resources on ethics for Florida educators include the following:
Discipline against Educator Licenses http://www.myfloridateacher.com/discipline/summary.aspx (Links to an external site.)
