Ch.2 Exercises 1 & 2

Ch. 2 Exercises 1 & 2

  1. I think it would be ethical to apply for the job, however, withholding the fact that you would leave in a couple months to continue your degree would be unethical. There’s no reason not to apply but you would have to mention that you wouldn’t be there for a permanent replacement for the position. Applying and saying that you would have to leave to continue your degree would be an ethical way of applying. If they’re desperate to fill the position then maybe you can get hired but if they can’t explore that idea then so be it. No harm in trying.
  2. I would support the bookstore head. It would be another resource for students, would give back to students with 10% of the sales, generate profit for the company that runs the bookstore, and I can’t seem to think of a negative that could come from the situation from all parties involved. Therefore, I would support the bookstore head.

Pg. 14 infograph exercise analysis

1.) The audience for this document are american citizens. This document would be on display in education buildings such as elementary schools, high schools, and college/universities along with health care buildings such as clinics and hospitals. 2.) The infograph appears to have 2 main purposes that being physical activity is important and why physical activity is important. These two purposes are shown from all the statistics that are given about diseases and what physical activity can help prevent these statistics. It does try to convince it's audience to make a change and motivate them with a list of benefits to oneself and even the community. 3.) The document is addressing the lack of physical activity culture in the united states. The document does not state any clear solutions besides saying physical activity is good for yourself and others. Maybe an argument can be made that the images show various physical activities being performed such as biking and playing tennis or ...

Dinosaur 13 Reflection

Jacob Bostick Dr. Bonnie Lenore Kyburz ENGL 308 8 September 2018 Dinosaur 13: Reflection                 Dinosaur 13 was a documentary about Sue the T rex. I had originally thought that it would be about some scientific facts about Sue and how much of a fantastic discovery she was to the paleontology community. I was so wrong with my prediction. What ensued was a tug of war litigation battle between three sides and really is a roller-coaster of a ride.                 Two specific scenes really stood out for me. When the FBI showed up to seize the fossils and take sue away. To only throw her in a warehouse for the time being. I felt anger during this process in the documentary. The FBI stripped the black hills institute of their remarkable discovery for science. They spent roughly 17 days just extracting her from the ground m...

Ch. 4 Document Analysis assignment

Jacob Bostick Ch. 4 Document analysis The Tone of the comments are kind of degrading in my opinion. The use of “you” as a finger pointer at the writing I could care less for. Along with calling things useless. They could be improved by being constructive and talking about the actual writing. The collaborator does well in the second and fifth comment but the first, third, and fourth the collaborator provides no help really. The collaborator addresses the writer more than the writing. Some of the comments would bother me if I was receiving them. Three out of five comments are kind of pointless and out of place in a professional environment. The first has the right Idea but something like,   “I didn’t really understand what you were saying here and maybe others will have a problem too. Could you clear it up a bit and explain more?” would be better than the original comment. The collaborator did a poor job keeping comments focused on the goal of the document and did...
