Read the material on Globalization. Write a 2 page, double spaced, Times New Roman 12 pt font, CRITICAL ANALYSIS. Guideline from teacher on how it should be written is also attached. Notes: “The heart of your paper should be an analysis of the author’s ideas. This is a critical engagement with the main ideas and evidence of what you have read. You are not simply restating what they said, nor are you offering an opinion. You are addressing the strength of their ideas, arguments, and evidence. You are analyzing the proposition of the author. If you agree or disagree with the author, you must use facts to explain why. What is the author arguing for or against? How did they construct their argument? Did they support their argument? What kind of evidence do they use? Are their holes in their logic or reasoning? Is the language biased? Did they explain why other ideas or explanations are wrong? What do they want you to understand? It is a novel approach to these ideas? These are just some of the questions that a quality critique could analyze. You can ask anything, so long as its an analysis of the ideas and evidence the author has put forward. In other words, this is about critical thinking. Do not spend the majority of your paper restating or explain the paper. As mentioned, this would be summary. You will, of course, need to mention what parts of the text you are discussing, but you can assume the reader (me) has also read these. So, focus on your analysis and critique. “

You will be expected to independently select two photographs not discussed in this course. You will have to make a contextual connection between the two works. Choose two works focussing on the same subject. For example, you can choose the representation of the female body, cityscape, landscape, still-life, nature. How are they different in style? How is the representation of the female body different in the two examples? What does one tell us about a landscape that the other contradicts? Why? In choosing your two works of art make sure to focus on a subject that is central to your current interest in your practice The Final Paper must be structured in the following way: 1) Introduction 2) Part one: formal analysis 3) Part two: contextual analysis Part 1:  Systematically and exhaustively analyze your chosen works of art considering the following (4 pages): Composition Colors Lines Perspective/Flatness Technique Materiality   Part 2:  Compare the two works you have chosen from a contextual perspective (4 pages): What do these works say about the subject they represent? How do they say what they say in different ways? Do they complement each other? Does one add to what the other says? ESSAY STRUCTURE First of all, take some time to think about a subject that interests you and that you want to know more about. Then choose two works not discussed in this course. It is important that the two photographs share something. Ideally, they should share the same topic and look very different or be from different movements but share some similarities. Be smart in your choice–this carries more points! Think about your selection carefully, so that the comparison is interesting! The overall length of this assignment is 8 pages excluding the bibliography, your name and title, and images. Please write the paper first and then add the images to make sure you don’t get the total page number mixed up. Marks are detracted if you submit a paper shorter than 8 or exceeding 10 pages. The essay must be spaced at 1.5pt, the font must 12pts, ‘Arial’. INTRODUCTION The introduction should not take more than one page. Keep bio info to a minimum, 4 lines for both artists, and focus on explaining why you have chosen these works of art–what do they share, how are they similar? MAIN BODY This is where you have to showcase your analytical skills–overall length 3/4 pages. This is your analysis. Make it interesting and relevant. You have two options:  1) Analyze all the points listed above one by one in one work of art and then separately do the same for the other. 2) Use each point to analyze both works of art at the same time: ex: analyze the composition in both, then move on to colors in both and so on. This is more difficult than option 1 and will carry more points. 3) Contextual analysis  CONCLUSION Wrap up your essay with some smart considerations about the two photographs you have analyzed. Which is the one you find more interesting and why? How do the formal quality of the artwork impact or convey meaning?  The overall length of the conclusion should not be more than 1page.  Your essay must comply with generic academic prescriptions such as footnoting, referencing, and bibliography. You should not use more than 2 Internet sources and should include at least a minimum of 5 different sources. Images must be included and labeled accordingly, specifying the artist’s name, the title of work, materials, and year of execution. The bibliography must be alphabetically ordered by surname. You are expected to use referencing correctly. Every time you read information somewhere in order to write your work it is important to reference the source–otherwise, you’ll be committing plagiarism.

You are to design one of the five systems associated with a transportation vehicle (any transportation mode is acceptable: car, boat, air and space, rail) that can traverse transportation pathways for an alien.  STOP!!  You are not designing an entire vehicle, just one of the systems listed below!!   NOTE:  You can mix-and-match different features and components from different styles of vehicles if you like. The system must contain all (explained further below) components of a vehicles system. Transportation Design Assignment/Grading Criteria Written Report   You will write, at a minimum, a two-page summary (double-spaced) on the experiences you had working on this project. Discuss each of the elements used from the steps of the engineering/technological design processes, as spelled out on pages 5-7 above. You are required to write this summary, as it accounts for 40% of the grade for this project.  You will submit this at the end of the semester along with the remaining project files. 2.  Rough Sketches   You are to develop a minimum of one (1) rough sketches for your selected system (as shown on page 6) for the vehicle system for the alien. This will help you when it comes time to do the parts in TINKER CAD. Note:  Remember, it is a rough sketch, details are less important at this point of the project.  Look closely at the alien’s appearance:   a.  What will you need to consider in your system design?    b.  How will the occupants enter/exit or mount/dismount the vehicle with           ease?    c.  Also think about cargo to be loaded/unloaded. What clever storage        solutions can you add to improve your vehicle?   d.  Consider personal items and cargo. What inspiration can you take from the plant and animal kingdoms to improve your vehicle design? 3.  System Model   From the rough sketches, you will generate, in TINKERCAD, a complete 3-D model of the system you have designed, as well as a 3-D model of the individual components of your system components.    Note:  Once you have the completed model in Tinker Cad, you can click on the “Send To” button in the upper right corner, download the file to your computer, and insert it into the Engineering Notebook (explained below). Once you have done that, simply go back to Tinker Cad and separate the parts, download each part, and add it to the Engineering Notebook. This will become your parts list. Once you label and number all of the parts on each of the sheets, simply copy and paste those images to the last sheet of your Engineering Notebook. This will be your assembly instruction sheet. Please be sure to include the steps needed to assemble the parts. You do not have to be that precise with the instructions. Just give me enough detail so I understand the basics on assembly. Hint:  You may use images from the internet as inspiration to help you create the components. This might save you some time. Try to find images that have less complicated assemblies. Do not simply copy and paste the images and label them. You are required to develop your own parts/systems in TINKERCAD. You must also cite the website at the end of your write-up in the reference section. Use APA format.  Example of a 3-D model:  Railcar Suspension  ENGINEERING NOTEBOOK (Section 2 of the textbook and lecture). An Engineering Notebook is used to document all of the work you have completed on a project. It may also be used to write notes, display research done to support the project, and other items of interest. They are typically bound pages of graph paper, with all writings done in ink. The bottom has a signature block for both the individual working on that particular component, or system, with a witness block to further document the work being done.  The reason for the dual signatures, is to document the parts/components being produced belong to the company producing it. This is critical if a company wishes to obtain a patent for any of the parts, or systems being produced. It also shows ownership of the design in the event a competitor attempts to steal the idea and make it their own. Each of you will keep an Engineering Notebook, but with a twist. Instead of hand-writing the features of your components, you will simply create your design in TINKER CAD. You will make the complete design as the first page, and all other pages will show the individual components, labeled, by name, and part number. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO THE SYSTEM YOU SELECT  This is not part of the Grading, but things to think about as you design your system! 1.  Structural, Passenger, and Cargo.   a.  How will the operator be kept safe and secure while the vehicle is in transit?    b.  Also think about any passengers or cargo. In what ways will you reinforce your vehicle       to protect the occupants and cargo in the event of an accident?    c.  What safety features will you add?    d.  How could your vehicle design be adapted for other purposes with the alien’s world?    e.  Consider cargo, emergency, recreation, sport, work, and other. How can you make your       vehicle more automatic/autonomous? 2.  Propulsion system design Considerations:     a.  What will power your vehicle’s movement?    b.  Will it use fuel or an external force?    c.  What possible energy sources could be used?  3.  Guidance system     a.  What types of navigation equipment, information displays (GPS, Satellite, glide slope indicators) will you need for your vehicle?      b. Where will they be located? 4.  Control System     a.  How will your vehicle speed up and slow down?      b.  How will it start and stop?      c.  How easy will it be for the alien to operate your vehicle?      d.  Consider steering, and other controls?      e.  Think about what transport systems are needed to work with your vehicle?      f.  Consider signaling, route networks, traffic control, and other.  5.  Suspension     a.  Will your vehicle have wheels, axles, or springs?     b.  What type of wings will you have on your aircraft?     c.  What type of hull will your ship have?     d.  How will you keep a train vehicle in contact with rail? Environmental Conditions Considerations:     a.  How will the vehicle be safely operated in different environmental conditions? Consider       rain, ice fog, darkness, wind, and other.  b.  What possible weather and surface conditions that the vehicle will have to navigate        through?    c.  How will this influence your design?    d.  How can your vehicle be modified to travel through different environments and terrain?  Note:  Consider snow, desert, air, water, underground, space, and others.  Basic creature comforts inside the vehicle     a.  How will you make your vehicle comfortable for the occupants and cargo?      b.  Consider seating, ventilation, noise reduction, suspension, and other
