Program Design and the Logic ModelFor this assignment, you will develop a logic model of your proposed program. The logic model is introduced in the Community Tool Box reading, Section 1. Developing a logic model or theory of change. A logic model is a valuable tool used to “visually” describe and communicate a program in a “logical” format that identifies goals, objectives, strategies, inputs, outputs, and impact. It is also useful for planning, implementing, and evaluating a program initiative. Building a logic model often helps stakeholders agree on a framework to assess the program's overall effectiveness using clear and agreed upon criteria for evaluation. A logic model provides the "rationale” for your program intervention and is often a required part of funding applications and program proposals.Assignment DirectionsNow that you have had an opportunity to reflect on your model program, this assignment will have you prepare a basic logic model that describes your program. You may use the Unit 4 Assignment Template and the Community Tool Box examples as your guide. These examples use boxes and arrows to form their model, but you may use any format or imagery that communicates your program more effectively.Please addresses each of the following:Create a visual logic model that investigates all the inputs (resources and investments), examines the outputs (activities, services, products, and participation), and analyzes the short and long-term outcomes, results, or impacts.Include a brief narrative description of your model program that includes:the purpose or mission of the program;why the program is needed; andwhat inputs (resources and investments), outputs (activities, services, products, and participation) will be used to achieve desired outputs (short and long-term outcomes), results, or impacts.

This paper assignment asks you to write a comparison between an Ancient Greek/Roman building and a building in Los Angeles that has been inspired by the Ancient Greek/Roman architectural tradition. Write a 2-3 page paper, double-spaced, 1 inch margins, Times New Roman font. You do not need to do outside research. Links with information are provided below. Choose one Ancient Greek or Ancient Roman building from the list below and pair it with one building in Los Angeles. Then write a compare and contrast essay. How are the buildings similar? How are they different? Be sure to discuss function. How is each building used? Who uses it? What are the materials? Architectural details? Organization of the building? As with the other compare and contrast essays, you must discuss the works together. So if you talk about the material of one building, you need to talk about the material of the other building right after.ANCIENT ARCHITECTURE CHOICESCHOICE 1: Roman ColosseumRoman ColosseumCHOICE 2: The Greek Theater of EpidaurusCulture Trip: A Very Brief History of EpidaurusCHOICE 3: Hadrian's VillaA Virtual Tour of Hadrian's VillaMaritime Theater at Hadrian's VillaMODERN LOS ANGELES ARCHITECTURE CHOICESCHOICE 1: Greek TheaterDiscover Los Angeles: The Story of an L.A.

THE RENAISSANCE Christopher Marlowe MARLOWE Although not as well known today as Shakespeare, until his sudden and early death, Christopher Marlowe was a one of Shakespeare's great rivals. Follow these links to review his biography before beginning the assignments. A brief biography can be found here. A more detailed version is available here. We will be reading Marlowe's The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus, as well as an earlier version of the story and two later versions, most likely inspired by Marlowe's work. As you read, you will be expected to take notes on the similarities and differences among the several versions. In the end, you will compose two essays. The first, shorter essay will examine Marlowe's Dr. Faustus as a tragic hero. The second, longer essay will compare the multiple versions of the Faust story and evaluate how changes in the stories lead to different themes or different reactions in the reader. Read this background on The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus before beginning the play.An online version of the play is available here (including a Kindle version) or you can download a .pdf version here. SparkNotes is available if you find yourself struggling with the text. Complete the worksheet questions to check for understanding before you progress to the next assignment.As you read the play, consider the definition of a "tragic hero" from the unit on Greek Drama. Look for ways that Dr. Faustus does or does not conform to the characteristics of a tragic hero. Assignment 1- Complete the attached study questions in the Excel sheet ( please don’t change the name of the worksheet) Assignment 2 Tragic Hero Compose a short (2 to 3 page) essay presenting the argument that Dr. Faustus is or is not a tragic hero. Explain your position by referring to specific criteria in the definition and citing specific details from the play. Format your essay according to MLA guidelines and cite your examples using line numbers from the play. If you use any outside sources in reference to the tragic hero, you must also cite these and prepare a Works Cited page.

He was recreating a legend many in his audience would already have known. Review this background on the Faust site to become familiar with the extent of the legend. Just as Marlowe was influenced by previous versions of the story, his play inspired others to offer their interpretations of the Faustian bargain. Now that you are familiar with Marlowe's play, we will look at an earlier story and two versions that came later. Read the following variations on the story to compare with Marlowe's play. Historia & Tale of Doctor Johannes Faustus Faust by Goethe "The Devil and Daniel Webster" by Steven Vincent Benet Create a document titled "Faust Notes." In this document, record your observations on all four variations of the Faust story. You may choose to make a table, create separate pages for each story, use Venn diagrams or develop some other method for organizing your information. Construct an essay (minimum 3 pages) examining the differences among the four versions. You should have an arguable thesis relating to some aspect of the Faust legend. (ex: Does the author's historical context alter the message of the story? Do all the stories share a similar theme? structure? resolution? If not, what can be learned by the differences?) Some things to look for: What is the setting of the story? The Faust character's background: family, nationality, studies, etc How does the Faust character meet the devil? The nature of the bargain: what does the Faust character ask for, what are the terms of the agreement How the Faust character benefits or suffers from the bargain? Does the Faust character repent? How does the story end? Assignment 4 Complete the three excel worksheets on Macbeth ( please don’t change the name of the worksheet) Macbeth If you are an actor, you know this as "The Scottish Play" because to say "Macbeth" in theater, except in the context of performing the play, is considered bad luck. Why? I don't know. This play is one of Shakespeare's tragedies, although Scotland did actually have a King Macbeth. The problem is that Shakespeare wasn't trying to be even remotely historically accurate with this play (the real Macbeth was quite well liked by his people and didn't have to stage a coup to take the throne). Shakespeare wrote this play to flatter King James I, the first King of both Scotland and England. The real Banquo (who you will meet in the play) was one of James' ancestors, so Shakespeare wanted to demonstrate how fate had always intended for James to become king. As you read through the online text, conveniently separated into scenes, take note of this notion of fate. We came across it earlier in this course with the Greeks and the question of whether Oedipus really ever had a choice in how his life was going to go. Just like the idea of the Tragic Hero reappears in literature throughout the centuries, the debate over fate or free-will rages on in plays and novels. Shakespeare's audience also took the idea of witches and supernatural powers very seriously--King James eventually wrote a book describing how to identify a witch. So don't be hasty in mocking Macbeth for listening to the three women who make predictions about his future. Complete the assigned worksheet questions as you progress through reading the play. Plenty of resources are available to help you dig into the play. First, a great short video explaining the basic plot. It is a British production, so you get to hear it in the correct dialect. If you click the link back to the Macbeth index you will find more helpful tools.Traditional SparkNotes and No Fear Shakespeare are available if you find yourself struggling with Elizabethan English. For the visual learners (and, after all, Macbeth is a play and is meant to be seen, SparkNotes has a 10-minute video version. Remember, while these sites can be a great help, you still must read the actual play!
