After reading, studying and reflecting on the articles titled “Origins  (Links to an external site.)of Children’s Literature (Links to an external site.),” “A Brief History of Children’s Literature, (Links to an external site.)” and “History of Children’s Literature (Links to an external site.) consider the following historical perspectives found in children’s literature:

What type of writing for children occurred during the Renaissance period: 1500-1650?
Why were the 18th Century moral writers important in the children’s literature history?
When did the emergence of Folktales occur? 
What was the catalyst for this type of writing?
What type of writing was done for children during the late 1800s? 
Why did this change in writing for children occur?
What types of children’s books were written in the early 20th Century: 1900-1970?
What types of children’s books were written in the late 20th Century: 1970-2000?
How are current day children’s books different from books written through history?
How are current day children’s books similar to books written through history?

(NOTE: You are encouraged to take time to think about and respond to these questions as a way to help you remain active as you read the readings and resources. Reflecting and responding about ideas are great ways to help you retain information as you read.)

1. Use the readings relating to the history of children’s literature to select 3 different historical time periods that interest you. (For example: 1600-1700, 1700-1800, 1800-1900 or 1750-1800, 1850-1900, 1950-2000)
2. Open the Chart Template. Save the template to your computer, and then use the template to complete this assignment. As you complete the chart, describe the major changes in how and why children’s books were written for each of the 3 time periods you selected, paying close attention to how and why social conditions, political attitudes, economic situations, religious practices, language use, educational practices, and print availability impacted each time period.
3. Save your chart again, close it, and then upload your chart using the directions below. Note: you must reply first before seeing responses from other students.

Question need to answer:

1)Explain the theory of cultural ethical relativism and give an example of how it applies to a specific moral issue. 

2)Explain the cultural differences argument in favor of relativism

3)Explain why Rachels thinks this argument is invalid (not deductively valid).

You should focus on the Rachels article “The Challenge of Cultural Relativism.” Section 2.3 “The Cultural Differences Argument” pp. 17-19 will be a good place to look in order to explain the arguments. Section 2.2 “Cultural Relativism” pp. 16-17 will be a good place to look for

Homework #1

4^th Entry – Rationalization.  Consider Frost’s “The Road Not Taken.”  A common (mis)interpretation of the poem is that it’s about taking the nontraditional path.  However, it seems to be more about a poem about rationalizing one’s actions, as described in the video below.  After reviewing the video, comment on this tendency of humans to rationalize actions.  Why would this narrator tell a story where he/she clearly alters events?

HOMEWORK #2

5^th Entry – Creative Nonfiction: In the preface to nonfiction (p. 2803 of your text), the editors tell us that creative nonfiction illustrates that “no direct duplication of reality is possible in language, that all writing is affected by the author’s point of view” (Baym et al, 2014, p. 2803).  Do you think that is true?  Can there such a thing as a truly reliable narrator?  Consider the excerpt from Danticat’s Brother, I’m Dying that you read this week as you prepare a response to this question.  How is this point made (or not) in Danticat’s writing?

I have heard all my life how men and women should be classified as different species. How we react to things, our perceptions of different events, and how we communicate are just a few differences between men and women. Deborah Tannen hits a few of the major differences in communication styles between men and women. All of them I completely agree with. With her statement,  “Men grow up in a world in which a conversation is often a contest, either to achieve the upper hand or to prevent other people from pushing them around. For many women, however, talking is typically often a way to exchange confirmation and support,” I believe this one is true to an extent. (Tannen, 2016, p. 632) I think men are indirectly taught they have to be the best. I think it is something psychologically taught to them somehow or maybe ingrained in their DNA. That being said, when describing the comments made about having jobs in different cities, the author did not specify whether men or women had made the comments. If it came from a man it could be that they were trying to one-up him, or it could be that that is just how his brain is wired. In my opinion, if you follow the author’s thoughts, then the women were saying it out of support or empathy. Now the husband has the wife thinking that the women were trying to one-up her. It is honestly a bad thing all the way around. I believe it is true that men and women do communicate differently. I also believe it has to change. The author took the first step in pointing out differences. She is very effective by providing detailed examples mostly anyone can relate to. Each example is effective because she shows both the male and female perspective and the why behind it. She concludes the example by showing how we can see the opposing persons’ view. My personal experience has been very close to the car ride example. I could not tell you how many times I have done something similar to just this and gotten the exact response from my boyfriend and we have gotten upset with each other. I literally laughed and then made him read it. We agreed we can work on our communication starting there. I am glad that we had to read this honestly it gave an amazing perspective.

Part 1 (Essay 1—Comma Errors and Corrections) This week we learned and practiced all of the comma rules! I did not count off heavily for comma usage on your first essay because we had not yet studied them in detail. However, I will look more closely at your comma usage for upcoming essays. Commas are tricky, so we are going to practice them here, in addition to our quiz this week. Take a close look at your first essay. Now that you know the comma rules, do you see any instances in your paper where you added a comma that did not belong? Did you omit a comma where you should have included one? My guess is that you probably did both, and that is OK!  In this part, I would like for you to share some sentences from your essay where these errors occurred. Then tell us which comma rules explain why this is wrong. Next, fix your error. (Include more than one sentence, if you wish, to help you reach the required word count.)  Example: In my first paragraph, I wrote the following sentence. “I like to watch the show Ghost Adventures because of the investigators, the places they visit and the paranormal theme.” This is incorrect because I should have included a comma before the last-named item. The rule that explains this is the “items in a series rule.” The corrected sentences is as follows. “I like to watch the show Ghost Adventures because of the investigators, the places they visit, and the paranormal theme.” In the rare event that you do not find any comma errors, please share sentences where you used commas correctly and which rules apply. Part 2 (Other Comma Rules) Using a rule that you did NOT discuss in Part 1, create a new sentence that demonstrates proper comma usage. Please include the rule you are demonstrating. You may include more than one sentence and rule to help you reach your word count. Example: “During the winter, I wear socks every day because my feet stay so cold.” I put a comma after winter because the first three words of my sentence are an “introductory word group.” Part 3 (Checking In) We mentioned writing anxieties during week one, and I am bringing this up again simply to check on you. Are you doing OK with the writing process at this point? Are the tips and instructions provided thus far in this course helping to eliminate anxiety? If you are nervous or want to discuss anything with the class, please feel free to share here. You may also comment that you are doing just fine, or you may Message me privately if you do not wish to share your thoughts with everyone. However, please do comment at least briefly here in order to receive forum credit. Tips for student replies: It will likely be a little harder for you to comment on Parts 1 and 2, so feel free to comment only on Part 3, if you wish. Maybe there is an idea you can offer to your fellow student to help with his/her writing issues. For example, if they mention that they are easily distracted, perhaps you could ask them if they have tried writing in a quiet room or a library. Hope this helps! The grading rubric for this forum is attached below.
