Write a rhetoric paper on a big corporation.

For your final paper, you will need to use all of the critical thinking skills you have learned to design a new society. Assume you have a basic infrastructure already in place so you don’t have to worry about things like electricity, running water, roads, etc. Keeping in mind all of the things that we have learned and discussed this semester, what would your society be like? What rules and laws would you have? Why should anyone join your society? What problems might your society face and why are those problems preferable to the ones we face today? Your paper should describe the details of your society and the reasoning behind your decisions. Some things you might want to think about: Type of government Laws Social structure Would you want to model your society after pieces of other existing societies or do you have new ideas that have never been tried before? Realistically, what kinds of problems would your society have to face with these decisions? (Remember, no society is ever perfect.) While all of your ideas are undoubtedly going to be interesting, what you should focus on most is explaining why you have made the choices you made. Keep in mind that the purpose of this assignment is to showcase the critical thinking skills that you have learned throughout this course. Providing a list of laws and descriptions of the various aspects of your society in and of itself does not demonstrate that you have learned to be a strong critical thinker. Focus on the why instead of the what. As you begin writing the drafts of your paper, many of you will find that you can easily fill 7-10 pages without getting into much detail about the reasoning behind your decisions. Make sure you avoid this pitfall. Again, a paper full of ideas and descriptions without a focus on demonstrating the critical thinking skills you have learned will not earn a high grade. If you find yourself with too many ideas and not enough space, try selecting the few most important aspects of your new society and focus your paper on explaining your reasoning behind those ideas. Use the information from your text book. Be sure to cite the text book and several other scholarly sources. One way to incorporate material from the text would be to explain one of the critical thinking or decision making processes you read about, followed by a description of how you used that process to make a decision about an important aspect of your society. Another example of how you can incorporate the course material into your paper would be to describe a concept from the book (like a fallacy, for example) and explain how one of the laws you created would be put in place in order to avoid the consequences of that particular concept. You could then follow that up with your rationale behind how that law would accomplish that particular goal.

This Module is full of TED Talk videos that are all related to the brain and neuroscience. Please understand that the content of the videos in this Module is NOT something that you need to focus on studying for your exams. You also are NOT required to watch all of these videos. The reason I am providing you with so many choices here is because I want to increase the chances that you will find a video that you really enjoy for this assignment. Your job is to pick ONE of these videos and then to write a reflection paper that is between one and two pages (typed and double-spaced using 12-point font and 1″ margins). Please note that I am NOT just looking for you to summarize what the video was about…. because I have watched them myself. Instead, the main thing I am looking for here is critical thinking and meaningful reflection on what you watched. You can reference specific portions of the video in your paper… or even use small quotes if you want. Just please don’t give me a “play-by-play” that basically summarizes all the details of what the video was about. Here are some questions that you can use to guide your paper, but you don’t necessarily need to “go down the list” and answer these questions in order. (These are suggested prompts to get you thinking… NOT a list of required questions that your paper has to address). What was the most interesting thing that you learned in the video? What really made you think or what really amazed you? What questions did you have after watching the video? Was there something about the video you found confusing or didn’t understand? What connections did you see to the things we learned in Modules 4 and 5? Did you see any connections between the video and something you have learned in your other classes? Was there something you wanted to know more about after watching the video? Did watching the video change your perspective on anything (or change how you think about something)? Why do you think the speaker chose to give this talk? What was his or her main objective? If you were in the audience and could say one thing to the speaker, what feedback would you give? You need to put some time and effort into crafting your paper. As a general rule of thumb, I am looking for about 1 to 2 full pages (typed and double-spaced using 12-point font and 1″ margins). My goal is not to “count your words,” but another rough guideline would be to think of this paper as being between 400 to 700 words.
