The period of Enlightenment witnessed “the most important mutation in all of European intellectual history between the Middle Ages and the present.” How do you see this linked through all the readings? Were the discoveries the result of the scientific revolution in pre-modern Europe? Prove or disprove this assertion.
The format for this and the rest of the discussions:
Essay narrative comprised of at least five paragraphs: an introduction (containing your strong arguments), three paragraphs or more (detailed analysis of your arguments with examples, in-depth coverage, and research), and conclusion. MLA is a must. Essays not formatted in MLA style will be marked down automatically 10 points; grammar, style, and lack of proofreading (spell check) will mark essays further 15 points; poor execution, brevity, and lack of evidence in your findings/arguments may fail your attempt in this exercise. If you short cite your sources in a text (e.g. (Smith 89)) please provide works cited full citation list beneath your essay. Since the component of “participation” is calculated in this discussion grade make sure to participate: 1) post your main response in MLA supported by examples by 11:59 p.m. on THURSDAY, and 2) reply to others’ posts throughout the week even after Thursday. Posting and replying on the due date or hours before the deadline results in loss of grade (no participation). Remember this grade component is combined: “discussions and participation.” Posting late (on the last day of the week) equals to walking into your classrooms in the last 5 minutes of the lecture. Keep this in mind. This is evidence and research-based exercise. I am not interested in your opinion. DO NOT start your sentences with “I believe” as this may jeopardize your post’s credibility since you’re not an expert. Two posts minimum: main response, and comment(s).
I am not looking for an opinion here but a researched argument.

Chapters 5 & 6
Overview:
Chapter 5 is about data collection and analysis which goes over regional and community data, neighborhood data, site, building, and specific building data. Chapter 6 tells me about Sit Valuation. Which describes the highest and best-use property along with vacant and improved land.
Chapter 5:
The market trend data along with general data was very informative and helped me understand many forms of data regarding the different forces that affect value. I thought the comparable property data was interesting since it compares properties to similar properties with unique standout features of the homes which determines the value. Also, supply and demand which is competitive because supply comes from the number that exists and imposes a value while demand stems from the local market demand like wages.
Chapter 6:
For this chapter, I liked learning about the methods of site valuation in which the value of the land is appraised. There is the most important method is the sales comparison method and this method is defined by the actual number analysis of sales. Given this method, we can apply sources of data, improved property sales, and elements of comparison. All three are beneficial to the appraiser through real interviews with buyers, sellers, etc. Also through computerized data of information for sources to receive data which is most common. My favorite is the elements of comparison that rely on location, highest and best use, time of sale, and physical characteristics of the property. All that can indicate are factors to a comparable property.
Chapter 5:
I also found site data intriguing since it deals with a specific property and how it is presented. The appraiser inspects the property and all that it surrounds, from boundaries to the sizes and borders. It also is taken into consideration about the easements and encroachments. there is also physical data in the description which explains how it looks the land itself. If there have been site improvements done to the property. It is basically an inspection and compare-to-contrast for the appraiser to determine a selling value.
Summary:
Overall, I enjoyed reading the methods of site valuation in chapter 6, I learned a lot of key points and ideas that broadened my knowledge of what it means to be an appraiser. However, I think I learned so much in chapter 5. All of those types of data and how important they are from specific markets to building data, and neighborhood data. All of that is a key component to data collection and analysis of the property. I learned a lot about the specific market data and site data which was interesting for me. Although, both chapters were informative and assisted me in learning about appraisals.

Chapters 5 & 6
November 6, 2023
Overview
The three key concepts discussed in this week’s reflection summary are Regional and Community Data, Highest and Best Use Defined, and Methods of site Valuation. Chapter 5 discusses Regional and Community Data, which explains how this data is used. Chapter 6 discusses The Highest and Best Use defined and Methods of site Valuation.
Key Concept from Chapter 5
Chapter 5, Data Collection and Analysis, Regional and Community Data. “Regional and community data reflect the effects of local social, economic, governmental, and physical forces on value” (Walt, et al., 2018, p. 146). The results of these forces will impact real estate values, which will result in either better or for worse. An appraiser will use regional and community data to help identify particular characteristics of properties that have increased and decreased in value.
Key Concept from Chapter 6
Chapter 6, Site Valuation, Highest and Best Use Defined. “The Highest and Best Use of property is the use that is reasonable and probable and that results in the highest present value, as of the date of the appraisal” (Walt, et al., 2018, p. 187). It is important to note that if there is more than one possible use for a property, the value will be determined by the most productive and profitable use.
Key Concept from Chapter
Chapter 6, Site Valuation, Methods of Site Valuation. In appraising, there are six commonly recognized methods for appraising the value of land. The most reliable type of method that is used is the sales comparison method, which is the most often used method when valuing land. When the sales comparison method can not be used, the other methods can be utilized. The six methods of land valuation are:
Sales Comparison Method
Allocation Method
Extraction Method
Development Method
Land Residual Method
Ground Rent Capitalization Method.
(Walt, et al, 2018, p.196)
Summary
In Chapter 5, I learned about Regional and Community Data and how it reflects the effects of local social, economic, and governmental forces of value. In Chapter 6, I learned about Highes and Best Use and Methods of Site Valuation. I learned that with the Highest and Best Use and how it is important to note that there is more than one possible use for a property. I learned that there are six methods of site valuation, but the most common and reliable one used is the Sales Comparison Method.

According to Zavella, why is the concept of reproductive justice important? What was the analysis that women of color made about reproductive justice? How did the case of Puerto Rican women seeking family planning highlight issues of race, gender, and class in decision-making about reproductive matters? What role did the colonial relationship play in the outcome of policies on women’s health care? How did nation-states and corporations affect the outcome for Puerto Rican women?
