1) Write a 2-3 paragraph response.
2) Include the link to an educational website other than Wikipedia that helped you to form your response, with a 2-3 sentence description of how this website enhanced your learning for the week.
3) Select and add an image to your post that reflects your learning, including the specific reasons you chose the image.
Example:
According to our weekly readings, there are a number of elements that create music. They are pitch, rhythm, melody, timbre, dynamics, and texture. By those standards, it can be said that animals make music as well. For example, a bird’s singing meets all these requirements. A bird’s song is obviously sung with a pitch (high), a melody, a rhythm (fast or slow), and dynamics (loud and soft). If the bird’s voice is considered an instrument, it has its own timbre which is why we are able to distinguish a bird’s singing from any other sound. Its texture can be monophonic or polyphonic depending on the number of birds singing along.
If one were to argue, for example, that a bird’s singing is not music, they can bring up the fact that there is no consistent “meter.” Music by humans a lot of times consist of a meter, or a beat that is organized by the performer. Because a bird’s singing is an improvisation, most likely sung to convey some type of message, it is not organized like the music humans are accustomed to. Another argument can be for the fact that birds are “probably” not trying to sing, and they’re vocal messages just happen to be projected with a melody, etc. If one requires the musician to have a clear intent to create music, they may argue that animals do not meet those requirements.
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2001/01/0105biomusic.html
For this discussion, I used the above National Geographic article that talked about how animals may have an intuitive sense of music – which genetically runs in humans as well. They introduce specific examples like birds and whales, and their natural instincts to create “aesthetically pleasing sounds.” It was a great outside resource to learn the possibilities that animals do music as well.
IMAGE: I chose to post an image of a dog playing the piano. I previously thought that the dog was just randomly smacking the piano, however, after reading this week’s study materials and outside resources, it offered me a possibility that this dog might actually be playing the piano for music pleasure.

Paper about” book of Second Isaiah“
– Length of 1200
-Teach this book to someone else, with special attention to that subject matter (force, violence, and social justice) which is found in your chosen book. So a basic summary of the assignment is “social justice in Genesis” or “social justice in Exodus,” etc. Include the following:
* Describe the book, and explain its content and meaning in its various original contexts, such as historical, geographical, social, economic, political, cultural, literary, and religious. (Not all of these will apply to every book.) For literary context, include
its place in the Old Testament storyline or meta-narrative as a whole.)
* Articulate a critical understanding of the themes of force, violence, and social justice in particular, as found in your selected book.
* Don’t just repeat a previous paper. If you did the optional paper [instead of the online exam] for the unit your chosen book occurs in, do not repeat too much from that paper in this one. Naturally, there will be some overlap. But this paper will have more detail for your chosen book than your optional paper did. These are two separate assignments, and they should clearly look like it (the instructor will be checking). If necessary, choose a different book. For example, if you did the optional paper for Unit 1 and did a lot of it on Genesis, you should not choose Genesis for your major paper now.
-Your target audience. Write this for someone who has not taken this class
-System: choose MLA, Turabian, or Chicago (Humanities), whichever one you are
familiar with already.
* Use the standard method for your chosen citation system
* Important: all 3 systems require in-text citation (not just a Works Cited list at the
end)
* Cite the online documents which the instructor authored using the format for unpublished papers
* Give the page numbers for print sources for in-text citation
* Include a Works Cited at the end

Assignment 2.1: Policemen of the World Thesis and Outline
Due Week 7 and worth 70 points
By the mid-20th century, the United States had become the dominant force in international relations. Some have argued that the United States’ military functions as the world’s “police.” This assignment covers the manner in which this shift occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its status as “policemen of the world.” Using the Internet and reputable news sources, research two (2) real-life international incidents from the past five (5) years in which:
Part 1
For the first part of this assignment you will create a thesis statement. A thesis statement is usually a single sentence somewhere in your first paragraph that presents your main idea to the reader. The body of the essay organizes the material you gather and present in support of your main idea. Keep in mind that a thesis is an interpretation of a question or subject, not the subject itself. (Note: Please consult the Purdue OWL Website with tips on how to construct a proper thesis; the website can be found at: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/545/01/
Part 2
For the next part of this assignment you will create an outline of the main points you want to address in this paper. This will serve as the basis for your Assignment 2.2 Final Draft. (Note: Please use the Purdue Owl Website to assist you with this assignment; this website can be accessed at: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/engagement/2/2/55/
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
Read the Below and simply choose a country and a topic (preferabbly one you’re well familiar with). Once you’ve selected topic and country, i’ll decide if you can work with me the duration of this course as a team.
Week 1: Topic Selection
Choose A Topic!
Discuss the pros and cons of a particular health policy issue of interest to you and offer a recommendation based on your research and analysis about the particular issue. Choose a topic that will push you to take strong positions. The range of health care “system” issues is broad with many possibilities for selection. Select one issue from the following list for your focus. Any other issue not on this list requires prior approval from the teaching team — submit a brief request (no more than one short paragraph) with your topic of interest and rationale for study.
This effort should not be a focus on procedure. What’s the difference between policies and procedures? A policy communicates principles. The main difference between a policy and procedure is that a policy communicates a direction whereas a procedure communicates the steps you take to move in the desired direction. Policy addresses the “what” and procedure answers the “how” question.

Submit your Journal entry by Day 7.
When candidates for president are out on the campaign trail it is not uncommon to hear them state, “When I am elected President, on day one I will do … .” The candidate then gives a list of one or two executive orders that they will make on their first day in office. In other words, they will make a policy that falls within the vagueness of Article II of the U.S. Constitution or a change of how current laws are executed and thus not needing Congressional approval for such a change.
For your initial post this week, imagine you are a candidate for the White House and present to the class at least one executive action you would take on your first day serving as president. (Please Note: it is not acceptable to state that you think no action should be taken.)
Go beyond just stating what the executive order you would make is. Make an argument supporting your action. Is it a legal action? Does the president have the power to take this action without Congress? Is this really a state issue and not a federal issue? Is this executive action, in your opinion, a good idea, why or why not? Would the public be in favor of such an executive action?
For your follow up posts challenge one of your peer’s proposed executive actions. Is it a legal action? Does the president have the power to take this action without Congress? Is this really a state issue and not a federal issue? Is this executive action, in your opinion, a good idea, why or why not? Would the public be in favor of such an executive action?
For your follow up post you may also respond to the challenges or critiques of your peers to your initial post.
Please respond to the initial question by day 5 and be sure to post two additional times to peers and/or instructor by day 7. The initial post by day 5 should be 75 to 150 words, but may go longer depending on the topic. If you use any source outside of your own thoughts, you should reference that source. Include solid grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and spelling.

Essay
Benjamin Franklin is remembered as one of the greatest transformational innovator and a leader in the history of the United States. He is known as the father of self-help in America. He lived a life full of a spirit of the renaissance as he was interested in the world that surrounds him and his fellow American people, thus enhancing not only his personal growth in diverse fields on human endeavor but that of his country as well. Irrespective of his profound effect on matters related to electricity, he had an exceptional understanding of the scope of writing. He was a wise and wit character who published Poor Richard’s Almanack. [1] The first lending library is attributed to his keen sense of reading, printing and writing leading to the invention of bifocal glasses. He also made scientific pursuits and discoveries on mathematics and map working, but science was his most favorite particularly in handling matters concerned with the electricity. This is why the language that we use today when referring to the same has its background to this prominent man.
Apart from being a renowned scientist, innovator, a thinker and an inventor, Ben Franklin, he is remembered for his phrase regarding matters of making money. He says that anyone who wants to make money out of his ideas is free to do so, implying how patent he was in his inventions moments. For instance, in 1743 when he founded the American Philosophical Society, Franklin among other founders of U.S drafted the Declaration of Independence of the country. Besides, he is remembered by many to be behind delineation of the U.S Constitution and enhancing negotiation of 1783 Treaty of Paris. This Treaty indeed contributed to the end of the Revolutionary War (1775-83).
Franklin shared anonymously towards calling on the colonies to stay together particularly when the French and the Indian War took centre stage in 1754. [2] He said so because his primary intention was to see the nations enjoying their common defense. He metaphorically used sectioned and cut snake demonstrating that nations such as France and India can either be joined or die. Also, Ben represented Pennsylvania county of America at the Albany Congress. It is from here that he adopted his proposal that ended up creating a unified government that saw thirteen colonies coming together. This for sure is as a result of his proposal he made while at the Albany Congress. However, this plan for union failed, as the colonies fail to ratify and accept it.
When Franklin and his son returned to America from London, they met American Revolution approaching, and from here he was given a chance to serve as a delegate in 1776. He was a delegate to the Continental Congress, an aspect which made him sign the Declaration of Independence. [3] This is why he is one of the leading figures of early American history. As a statesman, Franklin served in the Second Continental Congress during the period of the American Revolution. As a matter of fact, Benjamin Franklin is the only founding father to have appended his signature to all four key documents that saw American where it is now. He signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the U.S Constitution in 1787, the Peace Treaty of Paris that establish reconciliation with Great Britain in 1783 and the Alliance Treaty with France in 1778.
