Conduct a competitive pay survey to establish a “market rate” for an airline pilot. This should be a one-page summary of how you determined the salary or salary range for the position. You should be looking at similar positions in United States using job search sites and also some data on the position from the Board of Labor Statistics or Dept. of Labor. Some other suggested sites are Glassdoor, SalaryExpert.com, Salary. Com, Indeed, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Dept. of Labor. Remember to properly cite your sources.

Write a 5-page research paper on one of the following topics. You must use at least three academic sources (must come from MDC Library databases).
These are the sources I chose:
Charlotte Perkins Gilman: A Biography
Book by Cynthia J. Davis
Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s “The yellow wall-paper” and the history of its publication and reception : a critical edition and documentary casebook
I haven’t been able to access these books myself so if different sources have to be used I’m all for it.

My Last name starts with an K so use only the 3.2 section of attached paper
In the Northouse text, chapter three, Study Figure 3.2 “Three Components of the Skills Model”.
Review the three (3) case studies provided in the Northouse text. Case study 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3.
Case study 3.1 – if your last name begins with the letters A – H
Case study 3.2 – if your last name begins with the letters I – R
Case study 3.3 – if your last name begins with the letters S – Z
Based on the skills perspective, answer the three questions provided at the end of your selected case study. You should have three separate paragraphs. Repeat the question before your answers so your classmates can see the question.

I am a teacher of English based in Switzerland. My students are aged between 17 and 19 years old and they have an upper-intermediate to advanced level of English (B2 – C1).
I am currently unable to type and I have to create a handout on the American society and customs, which would include some exercises, some reading texts, some links and questions on videos or audio extracts found on the internet, etc. for my class.
The handout would have to be organized around 3-4 aspects of the american society:
1) The national symbols of the USA
2) The US national holidays or special days and celebrations in the US
3) The Influences/Diversity in the US through music and culture
4) ?
Each of these four parts would represent about 90 minutes of teaching, so the handout would cover about 6 hours of teaching.
The aim of this handout is to teach Swiss students about American society in a fun and extensive way.
Each part (1-4) should include some images, some reading exercises, some listening exercises (or based on videos), some speaking exercises and some writing exercises (not exceeding 200 words).
The deadline would be for the beginning of december.
Please find attached to this form an example of one of the part (1-4) that was created on the geography of the USA to give you an idea. (please note that this example is not the complete handout on the geography of the US, but just one aspect of it. I represented about 90 minutes of teaching)
Do you have someone who would be willing to do this job?
If yes, would it be possible to have a quotation for this handout on American society?
Thank you very much for your reply,

To begin your study of argumentation, please read pp. 525-532 in Patterns for College Writing. The concept of “audience” is particularly important in argumentation. The discussion below reviews the academic audience for whom you have been writing all semester.
The standard description of the audience for an essay written in a college writing class includes the course instructor and often the students in the class, as well.
For the students assigned to write these essays, however, it is usually more helpful to think of their audience as extending beyond their particular classroom. When they write an essay in an English Composition course, they are writing not just for those whose whose names appear on the class roster. Instead, they are writing for the larger academic community: all students who have chosen to pursue education beyond high school, and all professionals who have chosen to make higher education their career.
You can also assume that members of your academic audience, whether they are students or faculty, share certain characteristics:
They are interested in expanding their knowledge base.
They respect logical thinking and are interested in honing their critical thinking abilities.
They are open to unfamiliar ideas and, consequently, will allow a new idea a hearing before reaching a conclusion about it.
They have little respect for discourtesy when discussing information and ideas.
It is true that not everyone who is a college student or who teaches college classes exhibits all of the above traits, and, in fact, even those who best embody the list do not always or equally embrace each characteristic. Still, it is safe to assume that those who are successful in the world of higher education respect the above ideals and on some level work to integrate them into their character.
If college writing students prepare every essay with the above audience in mind, their essays will be more effective, and they are likely to get their point across to a broader group of people than they might have otherwise.
Please answer the five questions below. Respond thoroughly, using at least two complete sentences per answer. Edit and proofread your responses carefully and submit using the assigned link.
1. Please define/explain the concept of arguments; then discuss how argumentation differs from persuasion.
2. How can a writer tell if s/he has sufficient evidence in support of the position he or she is arguing?
3. Explain what features make Rogerian Argument unique from argumentation in general; then discuss how Rogerian Argument might be helpful in reaching any audience that might be resistant to the writer’s message.
4. Explain how the reading assignments you’ve completed will help you write an effective argumentation essay.
5. Which information covered in the reading today was the most useful to you? Please mention specific details in your discussion.
To continue your study of argumentation, read pp. 91-119 in your handbook, Rules for Writers.
The first three (3) questions below correspond primarily to the reading on pp. 91-97 in Rules for Writers. Respond to the questions thoroughly, using at least one (1) complete sentences per question. Edit and proofread your responses carefully.
1. To the best of your ability, explain inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning.
2. Please explain why hasty generalizations, false analogies, he post hoc fallacy, and the either. . .or fallacies are not logically valid uses of reasoning or evidence?
3. What might be the result if an argument writer assumes that all readers share the same controversial beliefs the writer herself holds?
The questions below correspond primarily to the reading on pp. 98-111 in Rules for Writers. Respond to the questions thoroughly, using at least one (1) complete sentences per question. Edit and proofread your responses carefully. Submit all 5 responses using the designated link.
4. Effective writers incorporate ethical, logical, and emotional appeals to their readers into their arguments. Please discuss each of the three appeals using at least one example to illustrate each appeal. Then, explain why and how each type of appeal might bolster a writer’s argument.
5. Explain why writers of arguments need to

In The Writing of Fiction (1925), novelist Edith Wharton states the following:
At every stage in the progress of his tale the novelist must rely on what may be called the illuminating incident to reveal and emphasize the inner meaning of each situation. Illuminating incidents are the magic casements of fiction, its vistas on infinity.
Write a well-organized essay in which you describe an “illuminating” episode or moment from The Catcher in the Rye and explain how it functions as a “casement,” a window that opens onto the meaning of the work as a whole.
STRUCTURE: Your essay should be in depth and provide insight. AVOID plot summary. Your audience is familiar with the text. You will need to be specific and to-the-point with your analysis and ideas. You might consider the following structure to your essay:
Start with a compelling opening and establish your thesis.
Provide evidence to support your idea.
Explain the significance of the evidence and how it relates back to your thesis (TEETh).
Finish the essay with a strong conclusion.
Observe all MLA formatting, include a works cited page and parenthetical citations for quotes.
LENGTH: Your overall length should be between 400-600 words. This includes all MLA formatting, heading, headers, and titles.
QUOTATIONS AND TEXTUAL EVIDENCE: You should have specific examples from the text (direct quotations) to support your ideas. Your evidence should be used as a springboard for your commentary and analysis. Be sure your quotes are embedded (providing context) and keep them short.
