You are assuming the role of teacher in this exercise.  A student submitted a paper in response to an assignment in your class.  A second student has come to you indicating he is aware the first student plagiarized on this assignment.  You ask a few questions to get a better understanding of the accusations and you commit to investigating this charge.  Your research shows the first highlighted area was copied from Masciarelli and the second from Frisch & Green.   Your assignment (two separate elements): Mark up the paper using proper APA methodology including needed plagiarism corrections.  How should the highlighted sections have been documented?  Submit a corrected copy (using Track Changes, All Markup, Show Markup, Balloons, Show All Revisions Inline).  Also use MSWord comments to add supporting documentation where needed.   Additionally, write a 900 word, APA structured (no abstract required) double-spaced summary of your investigation.  Did the student plagiarize?  Presume you did not know the outcome going into your investigation.  What evidence would have helped you make the determination?  Provide examples of evidence in your response.  How would you confront this student about the plagiarism?  Presume this is an online course.  What would you say to the student?  As part of your response to the student, please list at least two (2) resources you would recommend to help guide him/her to an improved product.   As this exercise is more applied, there is no need for scholarly resources.

2. Read the essay by Iris López and David Forbes titled “Borinki identity in Hawai’i: Present and future.” Using as a framework the theoretical essays on identity and traditions, plus the specificity of ethnicity and identities in Hawai’i (as explained by López and Forbes), analyze (in 1000-words) the cultural situation of Puerto Ricans in Hawai’i. In your discussion, be sure to include the following:• Is there a Puerto Rican culture or identity in Hawai’i?• Can it be considered “authentic”?• Explain in detail (you must support your argument).

What is good writing?  And what do we, as writers, have to do in order to produce it?   In this final project of the semester, you will make a claim about what good writing is. Your claim should apply across different kinds of writing—which means it needs to extend across different kinds of writing situations. Note: this does not mean that you are making a claim about a “universally-applicable” definition of “good” writing. Think carefully about what we’ve been talking about all semester. You will also make a secondary claim about how good writers produce good writing, as you define it. These claims should be based, in part, on how you work best as a writer as well as how others have attempted to answer these questions. In essence, then you are concurrently developing a theory of writing and an identity (or identities) as a writer.   How do you define good writing? What evidence should you use? This semester, we have read about writing, and you’ve defined your preconceived notions about writing, and looked into the way professional writers discuss writing. In this final project, you will be reaching back into work you completed for both Writing Project 1 and Writing Project 2. Therefore, you will support your claims with   ·       Your own experience. Include detailed analysis and discussion of your writing experiences and processes, successful and/or not successful. Connect your experiences to the general claims you are making about writing. Revisit the formal and informal writing we completed this semester as well as writing you produced in other courses. Note: For your reference: My experience writing is on and off. There are days I can write forever and there are days I cannot write and my head is blank. I tend to get writers block when writing about topics I am not very informed on a subject even though I still do research.    ·       Readings from the course. Synthesize information, ideas, and concepts from at least three other sources (including readings assigned in class and/or the readings listed below). Make the connections to your theory of writing clear. Also, analyze and evaluate how useful you think these readings and other course concepts will be for your ongoing development and success as a writer both in school and beyond.   ·       Course information. What kind of information about writing has been emphasized in this class? How has your writing been evaluated?   ·       Conversations or interviews with peers, professors, others. This element is optional, but you may want to include ideas from office hour meetings, class discussions, and other conversations with your other professors or fellow students that shed light on the issues at hand. Do your best to summarize these conversations fairly and accurately. As much as possible, use course-specific vocabulary, as demonstrating a vocabulary as a writer is key to your theory of writing. Consider what concepts are necessary to know in order to write well (e.g. analysis, synthesis, revision, rhetorical situation, etc.)     Guiding Questions You do not have to answer these questions, but they may be useful as you think about what you have learned and what you know to be true about your own writing theory.   ·       What makes writing good or effective? ·       How are reading and writing connected? ·       What concepts seem important to understand to be an effective writer? ·       Which threshold concepts, to your mind, are the most valuable to carry with you? ·       Which key terminology from writing and composition studies are most cogent to understanding what “good” writing is and does? ·       What have you learned about writing and/or yourself as a writer this term? What obstacles do you encounter? What strategies help you? ·       What’s changed for you as a writer this term? How? Why? Describe the change. ·       What goals do you have for your future as a writer? What do you hope to continue to do or learn? ·       Can you draw a diagram or picture or chart to illustrate your theory about the nature of writing?   Relevant Readings RELEVANT READINGS (not all have been assigned)   Wardle & Downs, Naming What We Know Roozen, “Tracing Trajectories of Practice” Melix, “From Outside In” Murray, “All Writing is Autobiography” Newstok, “How to Think Like Shakespeare (Links to an external site.)” Rosenberg, “Reading Games: Strategies for Reading Scholarly Sources (Links to an external site.)” Hass & Flower, “Rhetorical Reading Strategies” Warner, “I Cannot Prepare Students (Links to an external site.)…” Kantz, “Helping Students Use Textual Sources Persuasively (Links to an external site.)” Grant-Davie, “Rhetorical Situations and Their Constituents (Links to an external site.)” Robertson, Taczak & Yancey, “Notes Toward a Theory of Prior Knowledge” Yancey, “Writing in 21st Century” Penrose & Geisler, “Reading and Writing without Authority (Links to an external site.)” “Annoying Ways People Use Sources (Links to an external site.)” by Kyle D.

STUDY QUESTIONS: Know that our moral evaluations of sexual morality often end up in considerations of the metaphysics of sexuality, that is, views about the ultimate and fundamental nature of our sexual desire. What is metaphysical sexual pessimism? What is metaphysical sexual optimism? Know that non-moral evaluations, such as the evaluations that are involved in the dangers of sex (diseases for example), will often play a role in our moral evaluations. Remember that normative ethical inquiry, which aims to make prescriptions, usually needs to have a firm base in descriptive judgments that get certain facts correct. Know how the normative ethical theories we have considered can be applied to some issues in sexual morality. Know the three-fold criteria that Roger Scruton suggests should guide normal sexual desire (see his podcast above): 1) We should have reciprocity through mutual recognition in which both partners are capable of self-giving. 2) Each person in the relationship should be seen as non-transferable.  3) And the intentionality of sexual desire should be directed towards an individual person.  Once we have these three, we can ask how certain practices – masturbation, pornography, sex with minors, fetishes, open relationships, casual and impersonal sex, necrophilia, sex with sex dolls, and on – either hinder or help the development of habits that help us actualize natural and thus non-perverted sexual desire that is reciprocal, non-transferable, and directed towards a person.  What is meant by sexual perversion? Know that most philosophers argue that everything which unnatural is not automatically immoral (natural law theorists, however, typically disagree). Why would we want to understand what is natural and unnatural about sexuality? What did St. Thomas Aquinas say about homosexuality and why did he say  Why does Thomas Nagel disagree with Aquinas on homosexuality and why does he disagree? What would St. Thomas Aquinas say about forms of fetishism and why would he say it? Thomas Nagel agrees with Aquinas that various forms of fetishism are immoral. But he disagrees with Aquinas’ reasons for why such practices are immoral. How are Nagel’s reasons for seeing fetishism as immoral different from Aquinas’ reasons? Know the difference between two broad approaches to sexual morality, namely, natural law approaches and liberal ethics approaches. What do to the people who claim “consent is sufficient” argue when it comes to sexual morality? What do to the people who claim “consent is notsufficient” argue when it comes to sexual morality? Know that our analysis of sexual morality will typically include an investigation into general and fundamental concepts such as voluntary, sexual activity, sexual desire, sexual sensation, and sexual perversion. It will also typically include efforts to understand less abstract concepts such as prostitution, pornography, and rape. ASSIGNMENT:  This week please take up one of these options for reflection: 1) Take some issue that falls under sexual morality (procreation, contraception, celibacy, marriage, adultery, casual sex, flirting, prostitution, homosexuality, masturbation, seduction, rape, sexual harassment, sadomasochism, pornography, bestiality, and pedophilia) and provide an argument, using at least one of the normative ethical theories we considered, for or against it. If you really want to provide arguments for AND against it, that is fine too. 2) In your reading you will encounter the debate between those who think that, when it comes to sexual morality, consent is enough and those who think consent is not enough. Reflect on this debate, get the facts right, and then and offer your views on the issue. Please provide at least one argument in defense of your position using one of the normative theories we considered.

1. How do African American authors challenge the institution of slavery in various genres? What aspects of enslavement do they most consistently challenge and why? How do these different genres (like oratory, poetry, memoir, and fiction) differently approach the institution of slavery and critique it? How do African American critiques of slavery differ when considering the author’s gender? How do the African American critiques of slavery compare to the white critiques of slavery? For this essay use the following texts: Frederick Douglass’s “What to a Slave Is the Fourth of July” and “The Heroic Slave,” Frances Ellen Watkins Harper’s “Bury Me in a Free Land,” Harriet Jacobs’s selections from Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s “The Slave Singing at Midnight.”
