The novel is not conventional in the sense of meeting us with an expected, literal-level story. Literature usually tends to downplay much interest in plot, and we look to answer how and why things happen as they do rather than concern ourselves too much with what has happened. We look for implications.The literal level of this novel is so simple as to be hardly noteworthy. A family awakens to a new reality, harsher, harder, more vivid, or simply newer, the absence of the mother directing the emotional, internal life of the boys and the dad. Coming to terms with the novel means we have to drop anchor somewhere in the text so that we can spend enough time with a particular detail until the novel as a whole seems inevitably connected to it.Choose one of the prompts below. Write a clear, focused essay commenting on your experience reading the novel in the context of the prompt. Several students have remarked that the novel seems relevant to our current erupted political moment. If that interests you, good. If not, good. I am asking for your experience with the novel. Be sure to refer to specific moments in the novel to explain your points about your experience.Quoting is not necessary, but direct, specific references to the text are important to ground your discussion. Mark which option you have chosen at the top of your paper. Note there is not a word requirement, but most students write around 1000 words when the exam is given in class:Option AThe crow appears as an insider or outsider, depending whether we focus on it as central or tangential to the characters’ actions and responses. It is more an agent plucking the strings of an instrument already assembled than the source of music itself. What exactly is Crow’s place in the narrative? What is its duty, purpose, or obligation in the novel? Option BThe novel does not seem to offer a singular experience of grief and loss but gives a somewhat confusing picture, sometimes playful, or heartbroken, sacrilegious, light or profound. How does the novel transform the ideas it treats from mere ideas to an experience of something? We do not approach the novel for information, so what are we looking for when we read it?You may choose option A or B.**Unfortunately I don't have this novel.

For this assignment, you are tasked with completing a 6-8-page paper that addresses the major structures of the brain and the influence these have on cognition and learning. By completing this assignment, you will demonstrate (a) an understanding of the major brain structures, (b) fluency in the processes that occur within the brain, leading to the learning of specific behaviors, and (c) the connections of the relationships required between major brain structures and cognitive functions to facilitate the learning process.In completing the assignment, include the following, ensuring details are provided to fully elucidate the concepts presented:Select 2-3 learning experiences, describing, in detail, how each experience generally occurs.Examples of learning experiences one might consider are learning to ride a bike, learning a new language, learning to bake a cake, to name a few. In describing each learning experience, identify at least 4 specific brain structures or functions that contribute to or impede the selected learning processes.For each identified function or structure, describe and define the structure of the brain and purpose, with detail.Include a diagram, a process model, or provide another visual representation of the brain structures and functions depicting accurate examples of the structural changes that might occur or steps in the process of the learning tasks selected.As a major purpose of the work is to demonstrate an understanding of the brain structures related to learning processes, close your work with a succinct summary of the major aspects of the topic from the learning experiences you selected. Share your conclusions as a result of completing this project; how is the knowledge you have gained useful to the field of cognitive psychology, the larger field of psychology, and society overall?Include a minimum 6 to 7 pages, not including APA formatted required title and reference pages; submit APA style in-text citations throughout the work as well. The basic parts of a paper should also be included; these are the opening, introduction section, with a precise thesis statement, the body of the paper with clear, discernable headings formatted to APA style levels of heading where appropriate, and a conclusion that restates the thesis and summarizes the major points of the entire paper. https://apus.brightspace.com/shared/elf/psyc303/le...
