Explore a statement about the play made on the website with which you do not agree.

/in /by

First, read the GradeSaver website pages devoted to Beckett’s Act without Words 1 (see the link for this website below). Find two statements on this website about the play with which you agree, and one statement on this website about this play with which you disagree. For each statement, prepare at least one paragraph in your essay which clearly, specifically, and in detail explores that statement and your response to it. (Again: prepare three body paragraphs. Two of these paragraphs will explore –in detail– ideas made on the website about the play with which you agree. One paragraph will explore a statement about the play made on the website with which you do not agree.) In addition to the three body paragraphs, include a well-crafted introductory paragraph and a proper concluding paragraph in your essay, as well.

Suggested Outline:

I. Introduction paragraph

II. Body (three or more paragraphs)

Body Paragraph 1 (Explore a statement on the website with which you agree)

Body Paragraph 2 (Explore a statement on the website with which you agree)

Body Paragraph 3 (Explore a statement on the website with which you disagree)

III. Conclusion paragraph

Use ONLY the GradeSaver Act without Words 1 home page and the links available to other pages on that website to get your ideas. If you fail to follow this rule, your essay will fail.

This is your last homework assignment of the semester. Be sure that it is work of high quality.

1. Be sure that your essay follows the rules of MLA formatting (use the 8th ed. rules, as elsewhere in this course). This means that the website and the play MUST be properly documented. Failure to follow this rule will mean failure of the paper. For the successful completion of this essay, you must document a YouTube video and a reading from a website. You will see helpful links for those templates below.

2. Be sure that your essay is a college-level essay: It must have a thoughtful introduction, a functional conclusion, and at least three well-developed and detailed paragraphs prepared to the stipulations above. Failure to follow this rule will mean failure of the paper.

3. Be sure that your grammar, sentence structure, spelling, and organization are correct. Failure to follow this rule will mean failure of the paper.

4. Be sure that your paper is 4 pages (yes, including the works cited) minimum in length, is double spaced, has a twelve point Times New Roman font, and has absolutely no padding (no extra-wide spacing, no extra-long quotations, etc.). There is no need for you to quote more than a total of three sentences for this paper. Any more than that will be looked at as excessive.

Create a writing skills development plan by applying the EBP model or framework.

/in /by

This assignment focuses on using the EBP process and applying an EBP model or framework to improve your writing skills. Writing that is characterized by strong organization, appropriate use of evidence, scholarly tone, grammatically-sound sentence structure, and correctly-formatted citations and references is of paramount importance in all aspects of your professional role. Excelling in all three of these areas enables you to seamlessly integrate them into aspects of your professional life, including your roles of scholar-practitioner and health care leader. Creating and implementing your own plan to continually develop these skills will set the stage for improvements in your writing so that you communicate accurately and eloquently.

In this assignment, you will choose one of eight EBP models or frameworks that best applies to a PICO(T) question focused on the continued development and improvement of writing skills. You will then create a writing skills development plan by applying the EBP model or framework. Your aim is to facilitate the achievement of two specific writing improvement goals you created when you reflected on and examined feedback received throughout this course from Smarthinking and your instructor.
The following PICOT question will serve as the basis for this assignment:
• For my professional roles of scholar, practitioner and healthcare leader (P), will a writing skills development plan based on a specific EBP model or framework (I) improve my writing skills and facilitate the achievement of my two writing goals (C, O) in the next 3-6 months (T)?
In this PICO(T) question, the population (P) is you and the professional roles you seek to enrich, improve and refine. The writing skills development plan, based on the application of an EBP model of your choice, is the evidence-based intervention (I). The outcomes (O) include improved writing skills, as delineated by two specific writing goals you have identified for yourself from the results of your Writing Self-Assessment and feedback received from Smarthinking and your instructor, which also serve as the baseline or comparison (C). The timeframe (T) should be a realistic, feasible amount of time in which you will monitor and observe demonstrated improvements.

Preparation
Be sure that you’ve completed the Writing Self-Assessment.

Instructions
Create a writing skills development plan.
