Overview: We have been reading Caitlin Doughty’s From Here to Eternity alongside

Overview:
We have been reading Caitlin Doughty’s From Here to Eternity alongside Joy Harjo’s An American Sunrise as a way to have discussions about power and privilege, culture and community, and access and assimilation. Both authors are absolutely waging an argument- we can use (and have been using!) rhetorical analysis as a way to examine these arguments. This essay is asking you to focus specifically on Doughty, but you are permitted to use Harjo to help support, if it makes sense to do so.

The assigned question:
From the chapter, “Japan,” by Caitlin Doughty’s From Here to Eternity. You will complete a rhetorical analysis of that chapter, explaining the argument that Doughty makes and how she supports in in the text. Keep in mind that a rhetorical analysis is not dependent on your agreement or disagreement with the author.
Requirements:
Word count minimum: 1000 words
MLA format to include in-text citations and a Works Cited page
12-point font, double-spaced, one-inch margins
You will use the Classical Model of organization as discussed in class.
Specific, pointed, and cited use of Doughty’s From Here to Eternity.
Do your own work. This essay does not require external research; confine your essay to our seminar discussions and Doughty’s From Here to Eternity.

This essay allows you to develop your argument and integrate research about one

This essay allows you to develop your argument and integrate research about one of the two topics below. Read the articles posted in the Approved Articles folder and select one topic from below. Do additional research and create an annotated bibliography to assist you with writing the essay. Do not simply combine your summaries from the AB to make up the essay. Write the essay based on one of the questions below: In your thesis statement, answer one of the following questions: 1. Should people convicted of a nonviolent felony who have finished serving their sentences be given the right to vote? 2. Should social media companies be held liable for materials on their platforms? Basic Guidelines: • Your essay must have a clear, argumentative thesis statement that claims one side of the issue. You cannot take both sides. • The body of the essay needs to develop and support the reasons for the thesis. Each body paragraph must begin with a topic sentence that makes a claim supporting the thesis and provides the only topic for the paragraph. The remaining sentences in the paragraph should all be in support of the topic sentence. • The closing portion of your essay needs to do more than merely restate the key ideas you’ve discussed in the body of your text. With what ideas do you want to leave your reader? Special Constraints: • 600-800 words (If you do not meet the minimum word count, your essay will not pass.) • 5 paragraph minimum – can have more. Each paragraph must have at least 5 to 7 sentences. • A Works Cited page (does not count as part of the word count requirement) • At least 2 but no more than 3 credible sources with short direct quotes; 1 or 2 sources (articles) must be from the articles provided in the Approved Topics and Articles folder. The remaining sources must be from GALILEO. (If you have long quotes in this short paper, your originality report percentage will be too high. I want your thoughts on the topic.) • Originality report should not exceed 20%. (You can see this in the drop box. • Final draft should be a Word document submitted in MLA Format to Blackboard. • Give work an original title. (The title should not just be the prompt I have given you.) Questions to ask yourselves before you submit: • Do you have a thesis? Is it the last sentence of the introduction paragraph? • Have you incorporated 2-3 quotes using MLA format with proper citations? • Did you explain quotes? Do they make sense to the argument? • Did you make the first sentence of the conclusion a restatement of the thesis? Do not copy it word for word. • Did you eliminate shifting points of view? (Do not use: I, me, my, we, our, my, mine, ours, you, yours, etc.) • Is your to

NOTE: This paper has two parts to it: Part One- Language & Culture Paper. Part Two- Language & Culture Discussion Post.
PART ONE: To fulfill the requirements for this language and culture activity, I would like you to interview someone whose first language is not English so that you can learn a bit more about different languages and cultural backgrounds.This activity will give all of you the opportunity to interact with someone from a different language background and learn more about his/her experiences learning English. It is also crucial that as a future teacher you find a way to connect to non-native speakers of English, since you will be likely to encounter them in your future classrooms. Your specific assignment is as follows:
(1) Select a person who is not a native speaker of English to interview. This person can be of any age, any background, and any level of proficiency. It could be someone who has recently learned English or someone who learned English many years ago.
(2) Come up with a list of questions to ask your interviewee. While you can ask whatever you want, some of your questions must be focused on content relevant to our course. Here are some examples of questions you might want to ask your learner:
How old were you when you first started learning English?
Why did you begin learning the language?
Have you studied any other languages besides English? If so, which language did you find easiest? hardest?
Did you attend school in America? What was that experience like for you as a student?
Are there any areas of English that you still struggle with or find frustrating?
Do you speak English or your native language in your home?
Which language do you feel most comfortable speaking?
Which language do you feel most comfortable writing?
Do you notice any differences in your culture vs. the American culture? If so, what?
(3) Summarize your key findings in a short, informative paper.
Once you’ve “participated” in your language and culture activity, you must write up your observations in a short paper. Your paper should be no longer than 2 pages and it should be typed and double-spaced. No citations required as this is your own interview. In this paper you should do three things: First, tell me a bit about the person you interviewed and why you selected this particular person. Secondly, tell me about some of the interesting things you learned from your interview and why these things stood out to you (do your best to relate your observations to the material discussed in our class). Finally, tell me what you—as a future teacher—learned from this activity and how you can incorporate that knowledge into your future classes.
PART TWO: Finally, in order to document your event for your classmates, all students must accumulate a short descriiption of your activity or event to later submit to our class discussion board, sharing with your classmates what you’ve learned from your event and/or what you found particularly interesting. Write this discussion post on the last page of the paper to submit to the board later.
