For the journal entries, you should type up notes that document your change. One entry per week for a total of four will suffice. In addition to your two written pages, you are to include a cover page and a reference page in APA format.

Your sources need to be cited in text.For this assignment, you are to modify a current behavior based on your study of weight management over 30 days. As the term applies, this does not have to be about weight loss. While you can use this assignment to lose weight, you can also use it to gain weight, find a healthier diet like the DASH or Mediterranean Diet, or try a new dietary strategy such as intermittent fasting. You could also do something as simple as giving up fast food or red meat for the 30 days.

1] “Seeing is believing,” we’re sometimes told. Consider the problems of evidence in Shakespeare’s plays. Characters often come to strong conclusions about the beliefs, feelings, or actions of other characters, but on what basis? Take two of the plays we’ve studied and show how one (or more) of the characters in each comes to believe what s/he does. What does s/he want to know? Why? What steps lead him/her to certainty? In the end, should s/he believe what s/he does? What does Shakespeare seem to be implying about the search for truth?

2] Love would seem to be a human universal, but is it? Early modern people had some ideas on it that we don’t share, and Shakespeare, clearly, had a few ideas of his own. Choose two plays. In each, choose a couple (for instance, Hermia and Lysander). For each couple, show how this playwright portrays their love. What causes this love? What problems does it run into? Can those problems be resolved? Why or why not? Show how, from a modern point of view, this love either seems “real” or how it doesn’t. Or is this the right question?

Students will write a 2 pages essay analyzing one of the topics addressed on the Contemporary issues: Human Rights spectrum.  

The student will be free to choose any of the topics discussed as well as the moral/ethical approaches discussed.

The assignment will test the ability to analyze in depth these complex matters, not just understanding the social and political impact of the topic but also on the ability to express clearly the ability to make strong and evidenced arguments of the student.

The writing will be evaluated for clarity and proper handling of terms, phrases, and concepts addressed up to this date. APA style will be required https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/2/10/.
