Assignment 3: Changes in the Human Figure in ArtYou likely noticed that during the two hundred years covered in this week’s study there were radical changes in how the human figure is depicted in Italy, from something that was highly stylized to an idealized form that looked more real yet was strongly influenced by the Classical Age of ancient Greece and Rome. In the Northern Europe, however, depiction of the human form remained rooted in the Middle Ages and remained somewhat stylized.Use the textbook and/or online sources to locate and capture three works of art.one from the Early Renaissance (fourteenth century, 1300–1399)one from the Northern European Renaissance (fifteenth century, 1400–1499)one from the Italian Renaissance (fifteenth century, 1400–1499) Your works of art must either be all paintings or all sculptures.Place these images in a Word document. Then do the following:For each image identify:The artistTitle of the work of artThe date(s) it was createdThe medium or materials used to create the work of art, such as oil paint, marble, etc.Where the work is located now.In a well-developed paragraph (4–6 sentences) provide at least two important historical facts about each piece that makes the piece important to the history of art.In another well-developed paragraph (4–6 sentences), describe how the artist had depicted the human figure, supporting your observation using vocabulary from this week's reading. In a 6–10-sentence concluding paragraph(s):Compare and contrast how the depiction of the human figure has changed. Be sure to note such things as general appearance of the figures; their body types; whether the figures have been stylized, elongated, or idealized; and whether their clothing, colors, and other visual details have changed.Based on your reading and what you learned from the historic facts you have for each work of art discuss what may have been influencing factors behind these changes. Offer a citation of your sources for each image and the information provided as appropriate.Submit your effort by Saturday, January 14, 2017, to the W1: Assignment 3 Dropbox.

Considered the role that perceptions and biases play in influencing decision-making and critical thinking within intelligence analysis. As you saw our internal cognitive processes have a direct impact on how we think about and process information, for better or for worse. It's important to point out that these processes do not just impact intelligence collectors and analysts, but also policy makers who have received completed intelligence products. How can our perceptions and biases impact the different techniques discussed? In our internal brain battle, will these techniques always work or can situations arise where bias takes hold? Are there any examples that you can point to from history where bias has impacted decision making that has made use of any of the decision making techniques discussed this week? make sure you are providing specific and detailed examples, and be sure to back up your discussion with reference to the literature.Your initial post should provide a substantial contribution to the discussion and be at least 350 words in length.
