How to lower healthier food costs
$27.00by EssayShark TutorsTopic: Why is junk food less expensive and how to lower healthier food costs
Can We All Afford To Eat Healthy?
The Final Project in this course will be a written, cohesive argument for a specific change in your community or workplace. The Final Project should take the form of a “persuasive,” in which you will provide reliable evidence from at least five sources to support the argument for change that you are advocating. You will also need to reconcile the counter-argument or the audience’s misconception about the topic within the Final Project, as the ability to do so is a key component of a strong argument. Essentially, the Final Project will reflect what you have learned about writing effectively, using research, and creating a logical argument to influence an audience. You may also include relevant visuals to further illustrate key points of your argument; the visuals will need to be appropriate and cited in APA citation format if borrowed from a source.
As long as your topic meets the project requirements listed below, there are no specific restrictions on the topic of your argument for change, unless noted otherwise by your instructor. The topic that you chose early in this course and received feedback from your instructor for further guidance will be the same topic for your Final Project so that your work throughout the course will contribute to your constructing of an argument for change in the Final Project.
Your Final Project will need to meet the following criteria:
- APA manuscript format for the document, including an appropriately formatted title page and References page
- A thesis statement at the end of the introduction paragraph
- Well-developed paragraphs that include evidence from sources to support your argument for a specific change in your community or workplace
- Five reliable sources should be cited within the text of the project; at least two of the cited sources should be either books/ebooks or periodical articles
- All cited sources need to have full-citations on a References page (except for any interviews you conduct, which only require in-text citations)
- Standard American English and a formal tone throughout the writing
- Visuals are optional, but should be relevant, labeled (including citing the source), and referenced to in the text (e.g., “As seen in Figure 1….”); do not use clip-art or other visuals that do not clearly illustrate part of your argument
- After your References page, you will also include a 200-word paragraph reflecting on what you learned about effective writing through this course and Final Project, along with how you can use this information in future personal and professional situations
Achieving the above criteria should be your main goal with your Final Project. A strong and well-supported argument will be at least five-pages (1,200 words long), not including the title page, references page, or reflection paragraph.

Women’s lives in “A Doll House” by Henrik Ibsen
$5.00by EssayShark TutorsWomen’s lives in “A Doll House” by Henrik Ibsen
“A Nineteenth Century Husband’s Letter to His Wife,” 1783-1785, and “A Marxist Approach to A Doll House 1785-1787.
Answer one of the following. Use specific examples and explication from the play for support (see rubric below).:
1). Ibsen’s a Doll House stunned Norwegian audiences when it was first produced—it was as if they were exposed to the dynamics in their own houses, as if the “4th wall” had been lifted in their own living rooms. Reading it now, do the issues still seem relevant? Choose one aspect of the characters’ lives or relationships to discuss.
2). Nora lies several times in the play. What kind of lies are they? Do her lies indicate that she is not to be trusted, or are they a sign of something else about her personality?
3). Why does Nora reject Helmer’s efforts to smooth things over between them and start again. Do you have any sympathy for Helmer?
4). Describe Krogstad’s character. Does his shift in the play—from villainy to generosity seem adequately motivated?
5). What are women’s lives like in the play? Discuss two characters.
4 points, 200-250 words. Supply page #s in parenthesis after quotes.

Personal Narrative about Cops
$7.00by EssayShark TutorsPersonal Narrative about Cops
We will be working on the Personal Narrative for the next three units. The Personal Narrative will be due at the end of Unit #7.
A narrative is simply a story. A personal narrative is a true story, focusing largely on the writer’s own life.
For #2, the Personal Narrative, you will be writing a short (at least 3-4 pages in length) about a significant event in your own life. This event need not –and probably should not–be inherently, overly dramatic. Sometimes the most influential moments in our lives are smaller moments, events that we may not recognize as influential until years after the experience. In the personal narrative, you will want to tell the story as accurately as you can—search your deep memory—and tell the story from your own perspective. You will also want to exercise your selectivity as a writer, choosing to summarize background information/exposition, and really dramatize important scenes for the reader.
During the course of this unit, you will want to read the examples of the Personal Narrative in Chapter 2. You will want to start brainstorming ideas for your own personal narrative, and–by the end of Unit 5–you will want to have selected a significant event that you wish to focus on.
