Formatting
12 font or smaller, standard script (e.g. Calibri, New Times Roman), 1.00-1.25
margins maximum, double spaced, clean appearance, etc.
Basic organization is simple—
don’t make it difficult
Title—
choose one that reflects your views on the topic to inform and engage your reader from
the start, do not repeat the title of a book
—
e.g.
The Things They Carried
Introductory Paragraph
that simply introduces your topic/paper to your reader, and states your
thesis or underlying view of the topic (that’s all)
Organize the Body
of your paper in some coherent, clear way that your reader can follow—
decide how you want to address various aspects of the topic, and do so
INCLUDE NUMEROUS QUOTES DIRECTLY FROM BOOKS—
you need to find and include many
examples from the book (s), they fuel your analysis, clarify your understanding, demonstrate
your reading, research, work—they also add power and texture to your paper. For example,
this excerpt from Ho Chi Minh’s declaration of independence in 1945 is quite telling, as it draws
directly from the American document, “All men are created equal. They are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable Rights: among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of
Happiness…Nevertheless, for more than eighty years, the French imperialists, abusing the
principles of Freedom, Equality, and Fraternity, have violated our Fatherland and oppressed our
fellow-citizens” (Young, Fitzgerald, Grunfeld 27-28).
Plagiarism
is not acceptable
—
write in your words and indicate clearly when you use those of an
author. Do not succumb to cutting and pasting from Sparknotes or Wikipedia, as this is utterly
lame and academically illegal!
Proof Read
—
clean up misspellings, typos, wording issues, grammar, citations, etc.
Cite your sources
on all quoted material, specific data, or close paraphrasing of the author’s
words—e.g. (O’Brien 234)
Conclusion—
every paper should end with a paragraph that sums up your views on the topic—
this is your last chance to convince your reader that the paper was worth your time to write
and their time to read
Works Cited Page—
every paper should include formal, bibliographical entries for all sources
used (quotes, paraphrased, statistical data) and cite
HIST 2130—America’s War in Vietnam
First Formal Paper—Understanding the Causes of America’s War in Vietnam
Be sure to read
The Tragedy of Vietnam
and
The Vietnam War: A History in Documents
closely
to develop a sound knowledge of the topic.
These are to be your only sources for the paper
—
draw evidence (short quotes and specific data) from them and cite to where you found it.
Focus Questions—be sure to answer these in preparation for writing your paper.
1.
What sort of history had the people of Indochina had with foreign invaders/occupiers when
the United States stepped into Vietnam?
2.
Who was Ho Chi Minh and how would you describe his commitment to independence for the
people of Vietnam?
3.
How would you describe Ho’s relationship with the COMINTERN and/or commitment to the
ideal of global communist revolution—expansion of communism?
4.
What do you make of Ho Chi Minh’s declaration of independence in 1945?
5.
What was the U.S. view of the reassertion of French colonial rule in Indochina in 1945?
What had served to change this view by 1950?
6.
What was decided in the Geneva Agreements of 1954—at the end of French rule? Why were
the elections scheduled for 1956 never held?
7.
Who was Ngo Dinh Diem and how would you describe his rule in South Vietnam—1955-63?
8.
How did the Eisenhower and Kennedy Administrations view the situation in Vietnam/S.E.
Asia?
9.
How concerned were American leaders about what Eisenhower called the “domino theory?”
10.
What led Lyndon B. Johnson to take the U.S. to war in Vietnam 1964-65?
For the formal paper:
In essence, one by one in paragraph form within your paper you should address the questions
above. But read below for another way to think about your task here.
What central aspects of the historical context (the who, when, where, what) does your reader
need to consider before understanding this important historical subject? Explain.
What were the central causes of this conflict in Southeast Asia—how would you explain
America’s involvement in Vietnam leading to the Vietnam War?
Your job is to undertake an informed analysis (drawing heavily from the documents) of how one
can best understand this historical issue. The vast majority of the American public know little or
nothing about the origins, policies, events, decisions that led to this conflict—your paper should
seek to present essential aspects to an informed understanding of this important topic.
There is the important matter to consider regarding Ho Chi Minh’s bottom line convictions. You
must decide what you think makes the most sense here. Was Ho Chi Minh a COMINTERN
agent first and Vietnamese nationalist leader only second—the spread of Communism had to be
stopped and thus the U.S. response? Or was Ho a Vietnamese nationalist first and foremost and
therefore much less inclined to have a goal of furthering the spread of communism beyond
Vietnam’s borders? Or did it really matter either way to U.S. policymakers who were inclined to
see it through a Cold War lens anyway? (recall the “domino theory” advocated by D.D.
Eisenhower, JFK, and LBJ—as well as Containment Policy at the base of U.S. foreign policy)

FFA succession plan strategy for HR management and organizational leaders:
Instructions
FFH currently has 18 store managers who are over the age of 65, and most are considering retirement from the retail store chain. This presents quite the challenge in a changing economy with a global view, so there is an urgent need to create a new job description for the FHH store manager position and a succession plan strategy that addresses steps to take, policies to consider, and appropriate recommendations. If you choose to use a different organization, imagine a similar situation.
Include the following in your succession plan strategy for HR management and organizational leaders:
Analyze steps for designing a career development plan for FFH stores or a selected organization. What specific training programs should be included for these supervisory and management positions? What external development sources would you use? What legal standards need to be considered?
Explain what internal policies would need to be reviewed or implemented to support FFH’s or a selected organization’s succession planning initiative. How would diversity planning be impacted?
Recommend a succession plan strategy for each FFH position or a selected organization’s roles/titles. FFH’s positions include:
Assistant Department Supervisor.
Department Supervisor.
Shift Supervisor.
Assistant Store Manager.
Your succession plan strategy should demonstrate graduate-level writing skills through the accurate communication of thoughts that support a central idea and use of correct grammar and mechanics as expected of a human resources professional.
Additional Requirements
References: Support your analysis with at least two academic, scholarly, or professional resources from the Capella University Library.

This quarter, through the lens of different perspectives, we have asked the questions: what is just, and for whom am I morally responsible? In achieving justice, what do we owe one another, what is fair, and what is in the individual versus the common good?
Consider a real-world current event or issue and answer the following question:
What, if anything, do we owe one another, and for whom am I morally responsible?
To begin, you must find at least one news article from a reliable and verifiable journalistic source recently published describing a real-world event or issue that interests you. Consider which course concepts, readings, films, and lectures provide insight to the question above in the context of your event or issue by applying our perspectives on moral philosophy and reflecting on the relationship between law and justice. Compare, contrast, and analyze different perspectives that we covered in C10, and come to a conclusion. These include: Utilitarianism, Kant, Egalitarian Liberalism, Libertarianism, Rawls, Critical Race Theory, Feminist Legal Theory, Aristotle, the Narrative Conception, and the Political Responsibility Model.
Reliable and verifiable journalistic news sources include publications like: the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Orange County Register, The Washington Post, Christian Science Monitor, The Atlantic, The Economist, The New Yorker, The Wall Street Journal, BBC, PBS News or National Public Radio, Politico, Time, or wire services like Reuters or the Associated Press. You must include the source of the article(s), publication date(s), and author(s) in your Works Cited/ Bibliography/ References page. Thus, be sure to track and download your news article(s) while conducting research.
You have significant freedom to respond to this prompt. Be sure to develop a thesis based on this prompt to frame your paper, analysis, and conclusions. You should develop an argument, and avoid merely “summarizing” what you read. Your essay should meaningfully integrate and apply a variety of course materials to support your arguments. You do not need to conduct any outside research to complete this essay, other than selecting your news article(s).
In general, we will evaluate the quality of your analysis, and the extent to which your essay reflects a clear understanding of the perspectives and materials discussed in class, as well as writing, citation/attribution, spelling and grammar, proofreading, and coherent organization.
It should be 4 full pages, and no more than 5, double-spaced, in 12-point font with 1” margins. It must include, in addition to the essay, a Works Cited or Bibliography page.
Indicate your name, course name, and SID # on an unnumbered cover page (see example format below). Try to add a creative/descriptive title. Please see your course syllabus for more essay writing guidelines and resources, including the academic dishonesty policy.
In your analysis and throughout your final paper, you must:
Specifically, and productively integrate and refer to your reading materials assigned throughout the quarter. You need not incorporate all of our materials, but select several concepts and excerpts that are relevant and responsive to your chosen issue and use them in a meaningful way. Be sure to support and attribute with citation (including author and page reference) any ideas that are not your own, as well as direct quotations. ?
Identify and use at least one news article about your event/issue, described above. ?
Beyond these instructions, you have ample freedom to develop a thesis and respond to the
prompt based on the context you have selected for analysis, and as it relates to course themes.
FORMAT AND TIPS – See your syllabus for guidelines regarding written essays and papers.
1.Title Page – provide an attractive and accurate final title that reflects your project, and format it this way:
Immigration:?
On Moral Obligations and the Case for a Border Wall
First M Last
Student ID 111222333
C10 – Foundations of CLS?
2.Your final essay should be four (4) full pages in length, and a maximum of 5 (five), not including the title page or bibliography/works cited. ?
3.It must be double-spaced, in 12-point professional font, paginated, with 1-inch margins, in APA, MLS, or CMS format (whatever you prefer and are comfortable using for citation). ?
4.It must include a Works Cited, Bibliography, or References page of all sources used in your paper. You may include either end of sentence citation or footnotes (whichever you prefer). ?
5.Proofread your assignment carefully before submission: spell check, be clear with words and sentences, and organize your ideas. Writing, organization, and clarity count!
Writing Your Essay: Tips and Guidelines
The Basics:
The paper should be formatted as a Word document.
Consider adding a creative/descriptive title.
The paper should have a front page that includes heading information (name, ID, date, course) plus the title, centered. Your essay should not start on that page.
The paper should be paginated (best is to have last name and page #; don’t place a number on the title page).
All documentation/support/evidence (short quotes, long quotes, paraphrased material, and special facts) must be cited (author and page).
You must include a Works Cited reference page or Bibliography at the end. You may use footnotes, rather than end of sentence notation.
You may use MLA, CMS, or APA format
Avoid the use of contractions and informal phrases.
You must carefully proofread! Papers indicating a lack of proofreading will be returned ungraded with late penalties in assessment.
This paper should ideally read, not including the Works Cited page of references, 4-5 pages. It should be no shorter than 4 full pages, and no longer than 5 full pages.
Double-space your essay with 1-inch margins.
Meaningfully and effectively integrate course material into your paper to support your analysis (see Essay Organization, below).
Essay organization (your paper should contain the following):
1.Introduction with thesis/statement of argument/ statement of purpose, background, and/or context
2.In-depth, meaningful presentation and analysis in body paragraphs
3.Use of examples/support/evidence; explanation and analysis of evidence (in other words, you want your reader to be clear as to why you are using the examples you provide and how they support your paper’s thesis)
4.Specific integration and acknowledgment of other scholar’s ideas into your own argument, without plagiarizing, including any counterarguments
5.Brief conclusion. How do you want to sum up the paper without restating the whole thing? What do you want to leave your reader thinking about?
Elements Considered in Assessment:
Structure and organization (clarity, purpose, efficiency, logical, readable)
Effort (meaningfully integrates course material, not superficial, demonstrates thoughtfulness/care, creativity)
Proofreading (lack of editing, confusing, multiple mistakes of spelling/grammar/writing, incompleteness, awkward presentation, etc.)
Citation:
Essays will be processed automatically through turnitin.com, after you upload to Canvas. They must include a bibliography or works cited page of the readings used. Additionally, you must include either: (1) citation to the author and page number within the text of your essay, or (2) footnotes. For example:
Some critics assert that pornography represents, and thus perpetuates the subordination of women, even though the acts are pictorial (MacKinnon, 26-27).
This is typical citation format used in the social sciences. At the end of “pictorial,” you could also place a footnote if you prefer, which is more typical for law. Use whatever citation format you are most comfortable and familiar with: APA, MLA, CMS, or for law, the Harvard Bluebook.
You may cite either the page number of the document as formatted by the course packet, or use the original document’s pagination.
Note: it is best to go to the original sources from the required and optional readings to support your analysis. Show us that you’ve read and understand the material. If you cite to Dr. Berk’s lectures or Powerpoint for some arguments you are making, simply indicate that with the date. For example:
Lecture, 1/29/18
Berk Powerpoint, 1/29/18
For cases, either of these will work:
Lawrence v. Texas, U.S. Sup Ct (2003)
Lawrence v. Texas, U.S. Sup Ct (2003)
In general, I am more concerned that you are attributing to sources to avoid plagiarism, than the style or format you choose when doing so.
Just demonstrate that you know how to cite to the author/source of an idea or quotation, and don’t be too anxious if you have not yet learned about citation format styles (APA, MLA, CMS).

The unexamined life is not worth living for a human being
The unexamined life is not worth living for a human being
In a 1000-1500 word essay, please respond to ONE of the following three assignment prompts:
1) Explain and evaluate Socrates’ claim in the Apology that “the unexamined life is not worth living for a human being,” and briefly analyze and discuss the particular method he uses to discover the truth (i.e., dialectics or the Socratic Method), using at least two examples from Plato’s Euthyphro and/or Apology. Do you agree that a human being cannot live a fully satisfying life if he or she remains ignorant, like the slavish prisoners in Plato’s cave? Why or why not?
Finally, in support of your argument, please refer to specific passages in the video (Alain de Botton’s “Socrates on Self-Confidence—Philosophy: A Guide to Happiness,” available on YouTube via the link below) as well as to your own life experiences and observations
Socrates on Self-Confidence—Philosophy: A Guide to Happiness
2) Analyze and explain Epicurus’ famous proclamation: “Thanks be to blessed Nature because she has made what is necessary easy to supply, and what is not easy unnecessary…The right understanding of these facts enables us to refer all choice and avoidance to the health of the body and the soul’s freedom from disturbance, since this is the aim of the life of blessedness.” Do you agree or disagree with this assessment of the good life, and why?
In support of your argument, please refer to specific passages from the video (Alain de Botton’s “Epicurus on Happiness—Philosophy: A Guide to Happiness,” available on YouTube via the link below) as well as to the Epicurus reading assignment, and your own life experiences and observations.

3) Nietzsche famously proclaims that any worthwhile achievements in life come from the experience of overcoming hardship. For him, a life of comfortableness and ease is a worthless, wretched, and wasted life. Do you agree or disagree with this assessment of the good life? Why or why not? In support of your argument, please refer to specific passages from the video (Alain de Botton’s “Nietzsche on Hardship—Philosophy: A Guide to Happiness,” available on YouTube via the link below) as well as to the Nietzsche reading assignment, and your own life experiences and observations.

********After introducing your subject, your paper must have a thesis (hypothesis) in the 1st paragraph of your introduction with the RED FONTS. Your thesis must be in one short sentence (If A + B then C). **************
Then with your finding, you prove or disprove the thesis with the factual information and objective resources.
The Internet is, of course, a quick and easy way to obtain quick information, but it is often difficult to verify information obtained from the Internet because it is often not primary source information. It is a shortcut, but ultimately you short-change yourself by not developing research skills. It is better to get into the practice of doing actual research by utilizing the library, a bookstore, reading newspapers, and magazines that cover your research topic. All sources must be sorted out in separate categories with the following titles:
Web Sources
Print Journal
Print Books (2 at least are required)
