The Gordon Parks Foundation Archive
http://www.gordonparksfoundation.org/
This link will take you to an archive of photographs by Gordon Parks. Choose one image from the archive to
be the subject of your visual analysis.
The first step in this process will be to choose an image. Browse the images available through the Gordon
Parks Foundation Archives. Choose an image that you find engaging. This image will be the subject of your
essay.
After you have chosen your image, you should engage in some prewriting activities using the
ideas and terms presented in Unit 3. First, take stock of your initial reactions to the
image. What emotions did you feel as you first looked at the photograph?
Next, analyze the image by looking closely at the content, framing, composition, focus, color,
lighting and context. What interesting or unique features do you notice about the
image? What is the cultural or historical context of the image? You should record all of
these activities in your next writer's notebook assignment. Some of them will become
important pieces of your final draft.
Next, it will be time to find your focus and begin generating a working thesis statement. For
this assignment, your thesis will make a claim about the meaning of the image. In other
words, what message does the image communicate? Remember, every image tells a story and
an image may tell a different story depending on who is looking. Once you have decided
what idea or story the image communicates to you, you will need to explain how content,
framing, focus, color, angle and lighting come together to create that story or convey
meaning.
After completing the previous steps, it will be time to begin drafting your essay. The
following outline might help you to structure your initial draft.

Introduction: Idenitfy and describe the image and your initial reactions. Embed the image into the body of
your essay or include a link to the image so that your audience can view it.
Thesis: Tell your readers what idea or story the image communicates.
Supporting paragraphs: Explain how the visual elements come together to create meaning. In multiple
body paragraphs, discuss content, framing, composition, color, focus, angle, lighting and context. You do not
necessarily need to discuss every one of these elements, but you should discuss enough of them so that your
reader understands how the visual elements work together to create a story. You may have three or more
body paragraphs dedicated to this task. It would be a good idea to discuss just one or two elements in each
paragraph.
Conclusion: At a minimum, your conclusion should remind your reader how the visual elements convey
meaning.
Minimum Requirements
The final draft of your essay should be between 600 and 900 words in length (about 2 -3 pages long).
The essay should meet the expectation of an academic rhetorical situation. You will be expected to use formal
register English. Your audience will be a general audience of educated adults.
The image you have chosen as the subject for your essay should be linked to or embedded in the body of the
essay.
The essay should be written in MLA format, with a proper header, page numbers, title, and font. See the MLA
guidelines in the unit.

How might you describe the MMWR article in the context of a policy brief?
You are asked to take a virtual tour of the website provided. After your tour, you are asked to reflect upon the information that is provided in the context of the chapter covered in class during this unit.When you reflect upon this information, you are asked to use APA style and to specifically cite information from the text.You are also asked to respond to at least one peers post. This thoughtful response needs to be more detailed and specific. Responses like “Nice post” or “Good job” are unacceptable and thus not worth any credit.This week you are asked to take a virtual tour of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and a specific article published about vaccinations and aging. The Article is from a Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), the agency’s primary vehicle for scientific publication of public health information. Here is the link:VIRTUAL TOUR: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5206a2.htm (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

De Anza College Environmental Science Discussion
Assignment 1Start by watching this video of Xiuhtezcatl Tonatiuh to prepare you for this assignment http://www.earthguardians.org (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (Who is he? What does he do? What does he stand for?) I chose Xiuhtezcatl because we share being First Nation with one another (albeit, I am half First Nation and half European). Then...Find an environmental leader or activist that shares at least one thing in common with you that you self-identify as important to who you are. It does not need to be ethnicity. It can be anything that you self-identify with that is important to how you define yourself. Identity is pretty important when we think about the way people communicate and interact. For more on identity, check out http://criticalmediaproject.org/why-identity-matters/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.Give a brief bio of what they do and why you connect with them as a person and their mission AND why you chose them/connect with them. Your original entry should be a minimum of 250 words. Then reply to two different students posts that you connect with by reading their post and comment how and why you connect to what they wrote. Only one environmental leader/activist per person... i.e. you must choose someone different than a person that has already been discussed. Assignment 2Research and list 10 things you can do, right now – wherever you are in life, that would actively contribute in a positive way to protecting our environment. List those 10 things here and submit. You can start here http://www.earthguardians.org/50simplethings (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. or find some of your own. Please only list, in your own words, 10 action items you are actually committed to doing in your life. Even if there seem small - they can make a big difference. Assignment 3 Resumes & CVs are an essential tool for obtaining jobs, funding, internships, and career positions. This activity will reward you for taking the time to work a little bit more on this very important communication piece. My goal as an instructor is to support your success in both the science content and a few of the skills that organizations, institutions, and employers are constantly looking for. First, go to https://www.marypoffenroth.com/cv-resume-tips (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. watch the video I made and read the blog post. There is also an additional link there if you need some additional basic advice. If you have never written a resume, also check out the Purdue Online Writing Lab at https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/6/23/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Then, I want you to write down 3 things you found helpful to improve your current resume or CV. If you do not have one, this is the perfect opportunity for you to create one! You will not be graded on the quality of your experience or the richness of your resume for this assignment. What I want from you is to address the questions below and do a little work on your resume. I started officially working when I was 16 (although my first job was at 14 picking blueberries on a farm - but that is another story :)) - and still to this day update my CV/Resume every year. In order to receive full credit on this assignment please: 1. What was one specific thing from the video you could implement into your CV/Resume? 2. What was two other specific things from the blog post or linked basics article that you could implement into your CV/Resume? 3. Implement those changes and upload a copy of your CV/Resume along with your answers to #1 & #2 above. FAQWhat if I am in a deeply creative field like design, TV/Film/Radio, animation, etc. that uses a portfolio/demo reel over a resume/CV as standard practice?The above recommendations will apply to most majors in our course. However, for those of you who will be submitted portfolios/demo reels in lieu of a formal CV, you may submit your professional portfolio in lieu of a resume/CV.What if I don't have anything yet? If you have no work/volunteer experience yet, I highly encourage you to start now. Graduating without experience will put you at a deficit to other applicants. For now, go ahead and start structuring your resume and use class experience pertaining to your major in lieu of work experience.

For weeks, you have been uncomfortable providing therapy to this client. During the last few supervision sessions, you’ve discovered that this client has stirred up some intense emotions in you. You’ve mentioned to your supervisor some painful events in your own history about which you have felt ashamed and confused. You have yet to discuss these events with anyone else, even your own therapist. One afternoon, you head to the staff lounge but pause just before entering the room. Through the door you hear your supervisor talking with others about the painful events you had discussed in supervision.
