  • Title: Analyzing “The Starry Night” by Vincent van Gogh Part 1: Vocabulary words and definitions: 1. Composition= the arrangement of visual elements in a work of art. “The composition of this painting is dominated

    Part 1:
    Spend some time looking at this painting. What are the main design elements? Consider all of the class content so far.
    Write a list of all the vocabulary words you would use to describe this painting. Next to each vocabulary word include the definition of the word and how the vocabulary word is used in the painting.
    For example: SHAPE= an element of art in a two-dimensional work of art, limited to length and height. “The triangular shape in the middle of the painting is green.” 
    There must be at least 10 different vocabulary words that are used to describe this work of art. 
    Part 2:
    Use all of your vocabulary from Part 1 to write a short essay that visually describes this work of art.
    When you use a word to describe the artwork, be sure to include a definition of the word and connect it to a specific area of the artwork, as is done in Part 1 of this assignment. Be consistent- part 1 and part 2 should match.
    Consider proper spelling, grammar, and ESSAY style. Approx. 300 words.
    Include both Part 1 and Part 2 in your submission.

  • “Ethical Dilemmas in Internship: Maintaining Confidentiality and Fair Decision-Making”

    For this assignment, you should describe an ethical issue or decision that you have encountered
    during your internship experience. This may be something you have dealt with directly, or it may
    be something you have observed while doing your internship.
    Some examples of ethical issues or decisions could include:
    – If your internship site protects the confidentiality of clients, how is this done? What are
    some of the reasons why confidentiality is protected? These reasons could include legal
    requirements, as well as the ethics expected of people working in certain professions.
    – Staff at your internship site may need to make important decisions impacting people’s
    lives. For example, social workers or counselors at a school might need to decide how
    they will help a student who is at risk of dropping out. What is an important decision at
    your internship site and how is it made? In particular, how does your internship site make
    sure that decisions are fair and consistent

  • “Uncovering the Truth: The Legacy of Residential Schools in Canada”

    Issue 3 – Residential Schools: Uncovering the Truth
    “In the 19th and 20th century, the Canadian federal government’s Indian Affairs department officially encouraged the growth of the Indian residential school system as a valuable agent in a wider policy of assimilating Indigenous peoples into European-Canadian society.  A key goal of the system, which often separated children from their families and communities, has been described as cultural genocide or “killing the Indian in the child”.
    Over the course of the century in which residential schools were in operation, over 150,000 children were put through this “re-education”.  Many experienced all forms of abuse, humiliation and over 6,000 died. Click on this link to find out more.
    How this story is told, and from what perspective, is a powerful aspect of Canada’s attempts at reconciliation with Indigenous peoples.
    In 2013, videographer Danielle Sturk was commissioned by the Canada Council to produce a video portrait of Anishnabe artist, Rebecca Belmore, one of the 2013 winners of the Governor General’s Awards in Visual and Media Arts. What came out of that collaboration was the following movie, Treaty Number Three. 

  • Title: “Exploring Memory and Perception: Everyday Use and Flawed Results”

    Critical Thinking Assignment: Choose one of the Options below Option #1: In our chapter on remembering and forgetting, the author cites several different types of information that reside in memory. Episodic memories are composed of particular events that happen to someone personally. Semantic memories are essentially “general knowledge”. Procedural memory is our knowledge about how to do things, like ride a bike. Think about these three types of memory and how you use each on an everyday basis, listing a few examples of each taken from every day experience. In what kind of situation is each kind of memory most important? What would you still be able to do without each kind of memory? Your answers to these questions should be explained thoroughly.
    Option #2: Although our sensory systems generally do a good job informing us about what’s going on in the world, there are situations where our perception does not match reality.  Sometimes, people act on the basis of flawed perceptions, and the results aren’t always good.  For this option, write about a situation in which a perceptual error caused an interesting (i.e. sad or funny) result.  Be sure to address the following: (a) clearly describe the scenario, and the behavioral result, (b) identify relevant sensory and perceptual processes and the source of the error (c) discuss what (if anything) could have been done to correct the error, or avoid the “interesting” result. Note: This paper option should be about sensory and perceptual processing, not about opinions, beliefs, or impressions, etc. Please review the chapter on Sensation and Perception from Module 3 if you need a reminder about what Sensation and Perception refers to.
    *Compose your paper in MS Word or a compatible word processing program. Your paper should be 1 or 2 pages in length, single spaced, standard margins, 12 point font. There should be a clear introduction, body, and conclusion. The standards for writing assignments apply. Cite all outside sources clearly using your preferred format.
