explore this concept of implicit bias as it relates to race/ethnicity.

The discussion of the concept of implicit bias has been very prominent in the news, especially around the question of implicit bias toward people of color (esp. Black and Brown people and most recently Asian people). This week we will explore this concept of implicit bias as it relates to race/ethnicity.

We all have implicit attitudes as well as explicit attitudes?  I want you to chose an area that you might want to assess (1-Race, 2-Skin tone (light/dark), 3- Weight/body size, 4-Sexuality (gay, lesbian, bi-etc). Once you’ve chosen, answer this question:

What are implicit and explicit attitudes? How would you describe your explicit attitudes about race (or skin-tone, sexuality, weight-whichever topic you chose)? 

elaborate on your perspective of a scholarly literature review. Discuss ideas that may enlighten and encourage your classmates regarding the process of writing a scholarly literature review. Also, include a word of encouragement from the Bible. 

Discussion Assignment Applied Research Instructions

The student will post one thread between 500 and 600 words. For each thread, students must support their assertions with at least 1 scholarly citation in APA format, if applicable. Each reply must incorporate at least 1 scholarly citation in APA format, if applicable.

Prompt: For this discussion board prompt, elaborate on your perspective of a scholarly literature review. Discuss ideas that may enlighten and encourage your classmates regarding the process of writing a scholarly literature review. Also, include a word of encouragement from the Bible.

Descriptive Profile

Description

Come up with a word and do not use the dictionary definition to describe it.

politics and popular culture : -You are to critically review two academic sources. i.e. Summarise, compare and contrast, critique.

-You are to critically review two academic sources. i.e. Summarise, compare and contrast, critique.

Assignment guidelines:
-You are permitted to have one academic source and another source such as a news article.
-The sources should offer contrasting perspectives on some aspect of the study of popular culture and politics. For example, the sources might disagree about the value of using popular culture to study politics, or they might disagree about the relationship between politics and popular culture. You could also examine perspectives about a particular piece of popular culture or maybe a political debate within popular culture (there have been many in recent times).
-The word count is 1000.

Do the following:

In the introduction (one paragraph ~100 words)

introduce your topic
introduce the sources (mention title and author)
briefly indicate the similarities and differences between the sources
provide your assessment of the sources (note which you prefer; although perhaps you prefer neither and have your own perspective). You can think of this part of the introduction as your thesis.
In the body

briefly summarise each source (brevity is key – the interest lies in the comparing and contrasting and the evaluation)
provide details about the similarities and differences between the sources, focussing on the differences (differences tend to be more interesting).
indicate which source you think is the most compelling and provide reasons. You might also argue that both sources are deficient and suggest a superior perspective.
don’t include a conclusion
Reference list

include a reference list with the two sources and any additional sources you draw upon.

Can a conductor be defined to specific ensembles?

This phD proposal intends to research whether musical leaders (conductors) are able to make sufficient progress when leading ensembles they are not familiar with. For example; brass band conductor leading a symphony orchestra and vice versa.

This also raises additional questions such as what would define progress? What pieces are being used within the ensembles?

The methodology used would be a focus group comprising 10% of each ensemble to ensure fairness and no bias. And use the questionnaire and discussions to establish whether ‘progress’ was made and if so why or if not, why.

There is a niche in the market for ensemble musical practice led research but ponchionne-Bailey has done some good research to attempt to bridge this gap.

Description

*PLEASE USE AS SOURCES & REFERNCING ONLY FROM THE UPLOADED FILES (10 FILES)

*MINIMUM 2500 WORDS

For this assignment you are invited to explore the topics tackled on the course in greater depth through a close analysis of related source material. The material should be drawn, in the first instance, from one or more of the topic folders on CANVAS, but you are also invited to supplement this with additional primary source material from internet archives of source material or from collections in books. Useful websites are listed on the reading list provided on CANVAS.
You should examine four or five sources, or extracts from sources, in total. The sources may all relate to one topic studied on the module (e.g. emigration to the United States), or from more than one (e.g. two concerning emigration to the U.S., and two concerning immigration to Britain). Alternatively, you may choose a common theme (e.g. immigration restrictions) which your selection of sources all share. Your source analysis should be on a topic which is substantially different from the subject you tackled in your essay.
‘Source material’ may be understood as any written or visual material produced in the period studied. For this module: c.1800 – c.1950 (although we jump forward and consider recent developments in a number of cases). This written material could include official documents, memoirs, letters, passenger lists, academic publications (from the period), or even phrase books. You may also want to use oral testimony, or look at visual sources such as paintings, sketches, cartoons, and, for the later period, photographs and film footage.

You should approach your chosen sources critically. The following questions should help you shape your analysis, although not all of these questions may be relevant in each case:
Who wrote it? Can an understanding of their biography help us to interpret the source?
When, where and why was it written? Who were the intended audience?
What is the historical context of the source? (What was happening at the time the author wrote it/ artist painted it? What was happening in the place the author lived?)
Has it been translated? If so, how does this affect what we deduce from the material in question?
Can we detect bias in the account we are reading? If there is, does this invalidate the source? Or does it instead make the source interesting and valuable in other ways?
Does the source tell us more about its creator, and her or his attitudes, political opinions, or moral values, than about its professed subject?
The deficiencies or positive qualities of source material often depend on what we are looking to discover. For example, a source may tell us little – directly – about why certain events occurred as they did, in the order they did. Instead, it may very well help us reconstruct the attitudes, behaviour, agency, and experience of individuals or social groups.
To help you with your analysis you may wish to consult John Tosh, The Pursuit of History. The 2015 edition is now available online through the library catalogue. Also useful is Dobson, M., Ziemann B. (eds.), Reading primary sources: the interpretation of texts from 19th and 20th century history (2008). There are several copies of this text in the library. It is also very helpful to look at the way in which historians have approached the same or similar source material to the examples you have chosen.
This exercise is primarily a test of your interpretive and analytical skills, but you will need to consult the scholarship listed on the reading list for a better understanding of the historical context of the sources you have chosen. When you draw on the work of scholars, please reference their work in the normal way.

How has democracy in Latin America been shaped by populism? Make a theoretical argument as to how populism would shaped democracy, and then examine that topic with a case study from Brazil.

developing the railway substructure to support the development of high-speed railway transportation

because high speed railway will cause strain and stress on rail-tracks and therefore for the longevity of the railway track that this support structure must be optimized for efficient use case. We would be exploring especially the technical side of the research by finding previous experiments and using research papers to solidify our analysis.

-how railway can be optimized for construction for the longevity of the structure
-analysis of the structural component so that it is optimized for the forces experienced by high-speed trains.
