The University of South Wisconsin has had steady enrollments over the past five years. The school has its one bookstore, called University Book Store, but there are also three private bookstores in town: Bill’s Book Store, College Book Store, and Battle’s Book Store. The university is concerned about the large number of students who are switching to one of the private stores. As a result, South Wisconsin’s president, Andy Lange, has decided to give a student three hours of university credit to look into the problem. The following matrix of transition probabilities was obtained:

INTRODUCTION TO HUMANITIES.
For this essay choose two different works (Sculptures and Architecture) from Chapters 3 and 4 of the bookPerceiving the Arts: An Introduction to the Humanities (pages 63-113)and compose a reflexive essay based on your initial response and thoughts to these two pieces of art.
Your essay should consider the following questions
Consider the two pieces that you chose for this essay. How do they specifically help illustrate your responses to the questions listed below? What attracted you to these specific pieces? What did you learn from studying them? Did they meet your expectations? How and why did you relate to them?
Additionally:
What aspects of composition or style attracted or engaged you?
What did you learn about how they were put together that you did not know before?
How has your learning affected preconceptions or misconceptions you brought with you into class?
How does your learning affect your worldview? Has the knowledge you gained changed your perception or understanding of Architecture or Sculpture?
A word about reflective writing
Reflection provides a means to identify issues; state opinion, inferences, and predictions; and express feelings, beliefs, and attitudes. Reflection is a cognitive process that promotes critical thinking through writing. The writer’s responsibility is to support a personal opinion, inference, and prediction by the inclusion of relevant content knowledge presented in professional, published works. Ultimately, writing these papers encourages you to find what is meaningful to you and how it adds value to your learning.
Do not
simply outline or summarize the material you have covered. Share your ideas and what the selected art means to you. Your essay should reflect what you learned, your opinions and your world view.
The following will help you understand the assignment requirements:
Papers must be typed in Microsoft Word
Papers should be at least 3 pages (750 words).
Writing should use formal language and include correct spelling and punctuation.
One work should be a Sculpture and one work should be a form of Architecture.
Label clearly which images you are using.
Use APA style for formatting and citation (cite the book where needed, including for the images you choose).
This still needs to follow the Introduction, Body, Conclusion style that you are familiar with.

INTRODUCTION TO HUMANITIES.
We’re focusing on “Sculpture” and “Architecture” PROMPT #3. Sydney Opera House/Jorn Utzon/1973
“How Should we Perceive and Respond?” gives us four questions to ask about any piece of art:
What is it?
(A formal response, identify its title, maker, date made, and where in the world it is from)
How is it put together?
(A technical response, how was it made, what techniques, what media, etc)
How does it appeal to the senses?
(An experiential approach, how do you experience this piece, what ways could you use your senses to know this piece if you saw it in person)
What does it mean?
(A contextual and personal response, why do you think the artist created the work, what does it make you feel?)
Use these questions to explore your chosen prompt.
You should write at least four hundred (400) words about your prompt.

Equally (if not more) important will be to consider and write about the following:
What (and how) do movies mean?
theme, content, genre, intention, audience
social dimension and function: what the film says and means about the world, and particularly today’s multi- cultures (in all their broad meanings and permutations)
Personal dimension: how the film affects you personally (identification, engagement, pleasure, excitement, alienation, boredom, etc. — how and why?)

Communication skills are essential to excel in any discipline or field. Explain the three interpersonal communication skills of listening, feedback and questioning, and critically discuss the benefits

My Unit is Teaching and Learning in the Digital World. It is worth 50 % and I am very very nervous about this one hence I will need to know if one of your tutors can do it for me! (I apologize for asking but the quality of my last essay was so bad that I need to make sure it can be done) Please just be honest if it can be done or not as the marks will determine if I will pass or not. If it cannot be done that is fine, I will figure something else out. I would like to speak to the tutor and make sure he or she knows what to expect and if it can be done. I spoke to someone already, see below my email and response:
Me:
Dear John Mcbeth or to whom it may concern,
I would like to let you know that the first assignment that was written by your team was absolutely perfect. I was very satisfied and it was for my psychology unit. Considering that I was happy with what you sent me, I decided to contact you again for another unit due to my busy schedule. The manager assured me that the tutor dealing with this question is qualified as I needed someone who was familiar to the book ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’. I asked him again if the tutor knew about the book and he said yes and asked me to pay which I did. Unfortunately the essay was absolutely wrong and horrific. The tutor had no idea what he was talking about and I had to redo everything myself. After I submitted mine the tutor kept sending me additional information to make up for what he didn’t do in the first place. I had sent mine already and what was I supposed to do with the additional information? I paid to get the whole essay done! I was so frustrated by it and I asked for help, the manager did not do anything about it and kept saying that the tutor delivered and clearly he did not. After all the frustration and tears I decided to write to you. I asked for a refund but that was pointless so keep the money but please next time train your managers and tutors so they can be honest with the clients. If they are not familiar with a book, kindly be honest about it. I would rather someone tell me that they can’t do it rather than write something that they are not even aware of.
I needed some time to write to you as I was still so frustrated and upset about it all.
It was so unfair as I paid money for it. Kindly see below the whole conversation:

Background
:
A narrative should share a larger lesson with the audience beyond simply retelling an event. A strong narrative focuses on a single event or conflict and builds from introduction to body to a resolution. Descriptive language brings the reader into the experience; consider carefully how you describe each scene. Show—don’t tell. Telling informs the reader by stating facts. “She was angry.” Show describes a scene. “She grabbed the wilted flowers and threw them in his face.” Telling repeats a list or series of actions, often without stopping to describe what happened. Showing shares concrete sensory details to capture the scene in which the event takes place.
