ENGL110 Making Writing Relevant WK2 Creating Topics for 2 Assignments
Can you help me understand this English question?
Creating Topics for 2 Assignments View Full Description
Forum Objective: Describe the topic you will use for your week 3 informative speech and the topic you will use for your week 5 position paper.
One of the most important steps in writing is choosing a topic. Sometimes its easy to do and sometimes not. In this forum you will be choosing two (2) topics, as shown below. To get ready for that, read the article Reinventing Invention: Discovery and Investment in Writing,” which is linked here.
The authors state that:
Writers invent texts the way engineers invent new gadgets. But invention in the rhetorical sense is about a lot more than just coming up with ideas. Invention is also a way to describe what happens when a writer searches for a topic, develops a specific idea about that topic, and then strategizes a plan for fitting that specific idea to the writing situation at hand. In other words, invention is about coming up with something shiny, new, and unique, but it is also about brainstorming, synthesizing, and learning. (Trim and Isaac 107)
The techniques set forth in the article provide good ways for you to get some ideas for the assignments you will be doing in this course, working by yourself or working with others (your friends, colleagues, etc.). After you have tried some of these techniques, pick two (2) topics you would like to write on. If you want, these could be related to your field of study (some hints are shown in the lesson).
- Week 3 Speech: Informative Topic
- Week 5 Position Paper: Debatable Topic
- You do not have to pick a topic for your week 7 paper at this time. You will be doing that later.
Describe a topic you will use for the two (2) assignments for the Week 2 Forum. As you think about your topics, keep in mind your purpose for each (to inform and to persuade). Decide if you need to narrow your topic a bit. Think about your audience and how you can help your reader understand the topic. You can talk about these things in your forum post. See example post below.
- An informative topic informs the reader of a topic.
- A debatable topic (or persuasive topic) is a topic that people can agree or disagree and will have many alternative viewpoints.
EXAMPLE POST:
I am an education major. I want to become a teacher. Some topics that are interesting in my field of education are learning and bilingual education. For my speech, my topic will be “How to Motivate Students to Learn.” For my Position paper, I will write about “The Benefits of Bilingual Education.” Because the purpose of my speech is to inform, I will provide specific details on how to help students want to learn. This is how I will make my speech topic more specific: I will show ways to motivate students to learn by providing interesting lessons, having stimulating group projects, and engaging in fun discussions. Because the purpose of my position paper is to persuade, I will focus on the many benefits of knowing two languages. I will add details to my topic by saying that “The benefits of bilingual education include allowing students to retain their first language, heritage, and permitting students to learn English little by little.
- Length:
- Initial post should be at least 250 words.
- Misc:
- Write in complete sentences, but do not copy and paste the questions or instructions into your post. (This will not count towards your word count requirements.

Managerial Economics 8
Help me study for my Economics class. Im stuck and dont understand.
The discussion requires a minimum of 300 words, 3 scholarly sources, including the textbook. Make sure that you use APA style with your references. Under no circumstances use any direct quotes. Any directly quoted or copied material will result in a zero for the assignment. Lets be sure to write it in own work 100% and give appropriately when using someones else work.
Reference for textbook attached:
Thomas, C. R., & Maurice, S. C. (2010). Managerial economics: Foundations of business analysis and strategy (10th ed.). New York: McGraw-Hill/Irwin.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer’s book Breaking the Vicious Circle: Toward Effective Risk Regulation examines government’s role in controlling and managing the health risks society faces from exposure to environmental pollution. One major problem examined in the book is the cleanup of hazardous waste sites. Justice Breyer was extremely critical of policymakers who wish to see waste sites 100 percent clean.
Explain, using the theory of optimization and a graph, the circumstances under which a waste site could be made “too clean.” You may either describe your graph in detail or post a photo of your graph for the class to see.
Good answers are dispassionate and employ economic analysis.
1,500 word count and there is a total of 8 questions each (not including in-text citation and references as the word count), a minimum of 4 scholarly sources are required in APA format. For the 4 scholarly sources, one from the textbook thats posted below and the other two from an outside source . Lets be sure to write it in own work 100% and give appropriately when using someones else work. Under no circumstances use any direct quotes. Any directly quoted or copied material will result in a zero for the assignment.

I think you will find Unit 8 to be one of the more straightforward units we have had in the course. Everything that you have learned in the previous units has led up to being able to quickly and easily do a marginal analysis. Had we covered this unit earlier, you would have found it much more difficult.
On the Complete, please be sure to explain in detail how you arrived at each answer. Just filling in the blanks is not sufficient, and you will still need to do some research to meet your word count requirement. Feel free to research examples of marginal analyses in any area of study that you find interesting.
Use the graph below to answer the following questions:
a) At 200 units of the activity, marginal benefit is $__________ and marginal cost is $__________.
b) Adding the 200th unit of the activity causes net benefit to __________ (increase, decrease) by $__________.
c) At 700 units of the activity, marginal benefit is $__________ and marginal cost is $__________.
d) Subtracting the 700th unit of the activity causes net benefit to __________ (increase, decrease) by $__________.
e) The optimal level of the activity is __________units. At the optimal level of the activity, marginal benefit is $__________ and marginal cost is $__________.
Give an example from your own business-related experience of a situation in which a marginal analysis could be conducted. Explain how you would find and recommend the optimal level of activity for the situation.

Environmental Controversy-Science and Politics
Im trying to learn for my Business class and Im stuck. Can you help?
Each week throughout this course you will explore both sides of an environmental controversy. This week you look at the issue of science and politics. Review the background information. Then, using the References along with resources from your own research, write a 1-2 page response to the questions that follow. Remember to cite your sources using proper APA format.
Background Information
Today there are many complaints over the politicization of science. Many people believe politics should not play a role in science, but once government funds science, the funding decisions become political. In most social institutions, disagreements are settled by debate. Science in contrast, uses experiments to prove or disprove theories. Science is testable, and is self-proving. If a better explanation for a phenomenon is found, it will replace other explanations. This is why careful distinctions must be made between Frontier Science, Consensus Science, and Junk Science.
Many difficult controversies surround the environmental problems we face in the world today. Problems include: Air and water pollution, global warming, species and ecosystem biodiversity, energy, hazardous waste, population, and food supply issues. Politics control the financing of scientific research and development to help solve these issues. In politics passion wins over logic.
Science is not politics and cannot be debated in the same way politics are. Mixing politics with science produces bad science. Government efforts to fund research interfere with the maintenance of high scientific standards. The current Congress consists of 535 members. Of these members, 7 (1.3%), are scientists, and 21 others are healthcare professionals.

Questions
Do you feel that scientists should be cut out of the policy making process, particularly on environmental issues, when their research is proven and widely accepted and is being ignored and disputed? Politicians ultimately make the decisions, but shouldn’t the scientists have a voice?
Do you feel that lobbyists and special interest groups exert too great of an influence and act as an impediment to finding solutions to, and providing the funding for, research for the environmental problems we face?
