Writing a Rap Song

Hip Hop Song: The song can be about any topic of your choosing,(Hustling) but it should be inspired by something we read this semester. The only requirements for song is that it be16 bars (lines) long and should incorporate rhyme patterns that we learned with Mickey Factz. The song should include a perfect rhyme (words that rhyme perfectly), slant rhyme (words that don’t rhyme perfectly but our pronunciation makes them rhyme), and a reflector rhyme (a compound word that rhymes with itself).

Explanation of the song (500 words): In this section you should explain what reading(s) the song connects to and how. You should identify the focal point, perfect rhyme, slant rhyme, and reflector rhymes within the song. You will be graded on how well you explain the connection between your song and the course readings and your ability to identify the rhyme patterns you used.

PROFESSIONAL DISPOSITIONS AND ETHICS

The development of the School of Education (SOE) Professional Dispositions and Ethics for Next-Gen candidates strengthens the educational experience and conveys the SOE’s commitment to teaching, learning, and leading to the greater professional community. This professional dispositions and ethics work at WGU is supported by the “primary critical Healthy Learning focus areas that are key drivers of student academic, professional, and personal success” (Milliron, Walsh, Rhodes, 2021). As a Next-Gen candidate, you will need to collaborate with families, caregivers, and the larger community to establish partnerships that will promote learner growth.

In this task, you will first complete the SOE Professional Dispositions and Ethics self-assessment. Then you will create an action plan for ongoing professional development in the following professional dispositions and ethics:

  • All individuals Can Learn
  • Empathy
  • Growth Mindset
  • Intellectual Courage
  • Belonging
  • Integrity
  • Professionalism
  • Communication

You will explain how you have demonstrated the dispositions or ethics in a professional setting, which could include a workplace, school setting, community setting, or volunteering. Then you will identify ways you can grow in the professional dispositions and ethics, justify your action steps, and explain how you will collaborate with families, caregivers, and the larger community to apply the professional dispositions and ethics in the future.

Problems 1–2 refer to the following situation. A beam, resting on two pivots, has a length of 𝐿 = 6.00 𝑚 and mass 𝑀 = 90.0 𝑘𝑔. The pivot under the left end exerts a normal force 𝑁1 on the beam, and the second pivot placed a distance ℓ = 4.00 𝑚 from the left end, exerts a normal force 𝑁2. A woman of mass 𝑚 = 55.0 𝑘𝑔 is a distance 𝑥 = 2.00 𝑚 from the left end.
The system is in equilibrium.

Problems 3–4 refer to the following situation. The chewing muscle, the masseter, is one of the strongest in the human body. It is attached to the mandible (lower jawbone) as shown in the Figure below on the left. The jawbone is pivoted about a socket just in front of the auditory canal. The forces acting on the jawbone are equivalent to those acting on the curved bar in Figure below on the right. 𝐹𝐶 is the force exerted by the food being chewed against the jawbone, 𝑇 is the force of tension in the masseter, and 𝑅 is the force exerted by the socket on the mandible. We will consider 𝐹𝐶 = 50.0 𝑁. The system is in equilibrium.

Problems 5–7 refer to the following situation. A person bending forward to lift a load “with his back” (see figure below on the left) rather than “with his knees” can be injured by large forces exerted on the muscles and vertebrae. The spine pivots mainly at the fifth lumbar vertebra, with the principal supporting force provided by the erector spinalis muscle in the back. To see the magnitude of the forces involved, and to understand why back problems are common among humans, consider the model shown in the figure below on the right of a person bending forward to lift a 200 N object. The spine and upper body are represented as a uniform horizontal rod of length 45.0 cm and weight 350 N, pivoted at the base of the spine. The erector spinalis muscle, attached at a point two thirds of the way up the spine (a distance of 30.0 cm from the spine), maintains the position of the back.

Based on your reading of the article “Leading Change” by John Kotter (1995), discuss three ideas, suggestions, or sections of the article that you found interesting.

Discussion post and response

Part 1(a) This discussion post will need to be at least 400 words. With in text citations. Should use at least 2 references that are based in the United States.

Based on your reading of the article “Leading Change” by John Kotter (1995), discuss three ideas, suggestions, or sections of the article that you found interesting.

For example, in Error 1, Kotter argues that it is extremely difficult to get people to change because it means they must move out of their comfortable routines and into the unknown. Leaders often fail to create a great enough sense of urgency around the change to make people want to do things differently. If your organization has gone through a change recently, then you might want to discuss whether or not a “sense of urgency” was established. What was the response?

Part 2 (a) Should be at least 250 words with in text citations. Should also be at least 2 references that are based in the United States and websites. This is a discussion post response. It should extend on to what was said.

Discussion 5

The writing involves the following five parts:

  • Introduction (what is the hypothesis you want to test; what is the population data you have in mind)
  • data collection (what your sample data is and from where you collect them; on what basis you are convinced the sample is random)
  • data summary and visualization (the basic summary statistics of your data and a visualization of the main feature of the data)
  • hypothesis testing (a statistical statement of the hypothesis you want to test and the test statistics that you have computed)
  • conclusion (what you can conclude concerning your hypothesis based on your test statistics)

You can choose your favorite statistical software to conduct the project. Write a 1.5-page single spaced memo of the data project detailing the above four parts and to submit the data file along with the memo.

Examples topics:

  1. Has vaccination made differences in inflation rates across the states in the U.S. (or the countries in the world)?
  2. Has the ongoing US-China antagonism affected the bilateral trades between these two countries?
  3. Is the same kind of bagels priced higher in Walmart than in Costco?

533 Discussion

When students write in journals, they are not writing to perform; instead, they are writing to think on paper about new ideas they are encountering. Journals provide a great opportunity for students to learn by writing, and they encourage students to be reflective. Each week a journal prompt will be provided that is based on the topic of the week. The journal is a way to demonstrate rigorous engagement with the material in a less academic-feeling format. Each one should be an approximately 1-2 page entry.
