Major Assignment #3: Topic Proposal

How major division in the United States are perceived by other world powers

1). I believe this topic is very important, especially in the world today, because as a country we fight from election to election. Why is this important? Because as both sides of the aisle fight for the majority they create a country that is left divided and in some senses left with a feeling of hatred towards the opposite party. This creates a very vulnerable country, that left unchecked can easily be taken advantage of by other world powers, including Russia, China and even Iran.

2.)  -What major problems/debate truly divide our country?
       -What kind of perception does this give other world powers and how do we fix it?

3.)  Use a survey and/or a poll to determine what most prominent divisions have the biggest impact on the country
Also determine what major strories/problems are most reported by the news channels of the country
Use evidence and view points from both sides of the aisle
Use the Ben Sasse conference that I attended as evidence for how to improve these divisions

Major Writing Assignment #1: Initial thoughts (assignment for the 8/22)

Now at first glance this assignment seems heavily favored in the direction of the scientific way of writing, where even if your intended field of study isn't scientific, this assignment will be in the style of a scientific analysis of your intended field, meaning it will not be a normal writing assignment that you may be used to back in high school, where it was mostly opinionated. I believe this assignment will be more factual and analytical while taking on a new way of writing that most of us have not experienced before. Now for my intended field of study, physical therapy with an emphasis on biology, I have written lab reports in the past, but in a more generic and unspecified type of way, where there wasn't a set of concrete guidelines to follow and understand. In this assignment I hope to understand the nature of writing that my field of study requires and expects me to write, opening and broadening myself to a new genre of writing. 3 Questions/Confusions about the assig...

Topic Proposal for Major Assignment #2

Introduction : For the second assignment we are needing to write a literature review on a specific topic/question of our choosing. A topic that I have found a lot of sources and greatly sparked my interest is the negative and positive effects of caffeine on athletic performance. I think this topic is very important because of the massive effect and use of caffeine that is very easily seen in the world today. This topic is important because caffeine is major supplement utilized today among literally everyone, from teenagers to adults. Another reason why this topic is important is because it is centered around my intended field of study but also relates to a lot of other professions that can benefit from these reports about the effects. I have found a multitude of sources and information on this topic, here are four of them: Sources: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/caffeine-and-exercise https://www.rice.edu/~jenky/sports/caffeine.html https://scan-dpg.s3.amazonaws.com/medi...
