Reading Response Assignment: Week # 5
Step 1- Complete the reading assignment: Freire and Kohn
Step 2-Annotate the reading by Talking to the Text
Step 3-Please compose two paragraphs identifying Freire’s and Kohn’s main points in the first paragraph. The first sentence should address a common theme. The next six sentences should introduce each reading selection with its main points and titles. Finally, you will need to provide a sentence with a direct quotation, commentary, and parenthetical citation that validates the main point.
In the second paragraph, you have the option to only address one reading selection as it relates to you. However, you may choose to address how you made connections to all. Each paragraph should have at least one direct or indirect quotation from the reading to support your claims. Please use MLA format. In addition, the required length of each paragraph must be at least 8 sentences long.
Example:
Paragraph 1- example
Many people have a desire to graduate college one day; however, without the proper motivation, this desire is simply a dream. Johnathan Williams argues that people need to physically write their educational goals on paper and post them, so they can visually be reminded of their commitment to success, in his article, “I Need a Degree.” Williams pushes many of his friends to succeed in small goals because “small successes lead to greater self-esteem and more motivation” (32). Next, Rebecca Cox strongly believes that many irrational fears can adversely affect first-year college students’ success in college unless they have a fear-management strategy, in her article, “The Student Fear Factor.” According to Cox, many English students are simply overwhelmed by the volume of expectations and assignments and will say, “I’m not going to be able to make it”, when all they need to do is find a support network for the courses they have (20). For example, write two more sentences that relate to the two articles. Make sure to include content in your own words. As a result of success building strategies, many people have graduated from college, started businesses, and accomplished their goals.
Paragraph 2- example
The portion of William’s article where he described how he helped his best friend was compelling to me because it reminded me of the time when my God -Father helped me to overcome my fear of writing. In this portion of the article, Williams told his friend that not helping his best friend in life would be an eternal stain on his permanent record in Heaven (33). My God-father told me that I had to succeed because I represented him. He could write well, and he was determined to teach me the tenets of writing. I wanted to write well. I listened to everything my God-father shared with me, just like Williams’s best friend listened to him. I practiced day and night using the skills my mentor gave me. I am sure the best friend followed instructions too. In the end, I accomplished my goal of becoming a better writing much in the same measure of success as the best friend who graduated from college in the article.

Write a 1000-1500 word essay addressing each of the following points/questions. Be sure to completely answer all the questions for each bullet point. There should be two main sections, one for each bullet below. Separate each section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know which bullet you are addressing in that section of your paper. Support your ideas with (2) sources (1 outside source and the textbook) using citations in your essay. Make sure to cite using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference page in correct APA do not count towards the minimum word amount. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment.
Part 1:
Describe the eight steps to integrating evidence-based practice into the clinical environment. What barriers might you face in implementing a new practice to address your research topic (as identified in Module 1)? Describe strategies that could be used to increase success including overcoming barriers.
Part 2:

Title: UK Postcode Lookup and Distance Calculator
Develop a website, consisting of up to 2 pages. The website should have the following features:
• The website should display a list of postcodes.
• A user should be able to select a postcode and see some information relating to the
postcode.
• Users should be able to select two postcodes and find the distance between those
postcodes in miles. See Distance Calculation definition for help on the formula.
For the purposes of this assignment, you can assume that the earth is a perfect sphere.
You do not need to compensate for any errors.
• Only authenticated users should be able to add/edit/remove from the list of postcodes.
• Only valid postcodes should be presented in the list.
• The list should persist between user sessions, through database storage.
• A unique design
Your website must be created using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that is written by yourself. The
use of third-party libraries is expressly forbidden. Frameworks and automated authoring tools
(Bootstrap, Angular, etc) is also expressly forbidden. Your website should be original and should
not be built following a tutorial or template. Use the techniques you have learnt on this module and
from your self-study.
A database for you to use in your assignment has been provided to you, in the file postcodeDB.sql
on Moodle. You should create a database from this backup file and create a new user for the
database through cPanel. The website you develop should manipulate this database.
For the avoidance of doubt, the inclusion of a data driven aspect requires you to write original
code. Implementations which can be achieved by copying and pasting code ‘as-is’ such as the
integration of a YouTube video or mapping provider would not meet the requirements for this
aspect. -
