In your paper, describe the population to the best of your ability, including their status in higher education in the United States today.

In your paper, describe the population to the best of your ability, including their status in higher education in the United States today. This should be a comprehensive literature review of the empirical research on your population; this does not mean that you will just piece together a summary of various research studies on you population, but rather you will synthesizeand provide analysisof what the research on your population means for this particular group of students in higher education.The ultimate goal of this paper is to extend your knowledge of a given population and to make it have real meaning for your upcoming work.As such, I expect that you will provide analysis that connects theresearch you have read to real implications for practice.Recommended length: This assignment should be between 12-15 pages in length.that we have read in class –these tend to focus on describing and summarizing the literature on specific populations of students and providing implications for practice, which is exactly what you should be doing in this assignment.Your paper can be organized in many different ways depending on your topic and your own style of writing, but each paper should include:•An introduction of your population (Consider: What is the definition of your population? What is their status in higher education? Why is this an important population to consider?)•A “roadmap” explaining what your paper is about and what you will be discussing in your paper•A comprehensive review of the literature on your population. If there is insufficient literature on your specific population, you should look to related bodies of literature or similar student populations that may inform your understanding of your population. Remember, the focus of this assignment is on understanding a particular population of students, so focus your literature review on that.•Identification of gaps in the literature•An analysis of implications for student affairs practice (and, if applicable, future research) based in your review of the literature•A conclusion•ReferencesIn grading your papers, I will be looking for the above bullet points. I will also be looking for:•A clear organizational structure and flow•Proper APA style•Clarity of writing, including grammatical correctness•The comprehensiveness and quality of the literature reviewed. While there is no set number of articles you need to include, you should review enough research so as to provide a thorough understanding of the population in question. You should also focus primarily on empirical research (other types of articles maybe applicable to your population and may be included, but
the focus should be on empirical research) and be timely. If you are citing particularly old research studies, you should address if and why they are still relevant to your population.

Discuss the filmmaker’s career, including background, colleagues and influence.

The subject of this paper is the analysis of a filmmaker and one of his/her films. This paper should be no shorter than 5-7 full pages in length, written in a doublespaced, 12-pt font.

-This paper must have a clear, critical thesis that is supported throughout the body of the paper.

-Choose a filmmaker from the time periods looked at thus far in class. Students may select someone we have discussed in class, or pick someone mentioned in the Sitney book but not covered in lecture. Two artists that will be prohibited as subjects for this paper are Maya Deren and Salvador Dali.

-One film should be chosen as a focus.

-Discuss the filmmaker’s career, including background, colleagues and influence. Do this in the context of your thesis.

-Provide an analysis of the film as a way to talk about the filmmaker’s style, interests and techniques. Consider styles or artists whose work they may be reacting to or rejecting, and assert how such a relationship may be critically significant. Do this in the context of your thesis.

-At least two ideas from Benjamin and/or Greenberg, should be incorporated into the larger critical argument of the paper. Use citations. Do this in the context of your thesis.

What do you see as some advantages of keeping a schedule? What are some disadvantages?

You are expected to have read/viewed all the materials and completed the Forum assignments for Week 3. Here are some questions to help get you thinking about Time Management:

What do you see as some advantages of keeping a schedule? What are some disadvantages?
It may seem paradoxical that students who have less time to study often manage to do better in school than others. How can this be explained?
What advice would you give to a friend who says, “I don’t make schedules because I know I can’t live up to them”?
What did you learn from keeping an “unschedule” of your week’s activities? Do you feel that it might be useful to continue keeping track of your time? Would you recommend this practice to someone else? Why or why not?
Ben Hur Lampman, a 20th century journalist in Portland, Oregon, wrote, “The trouble with life is that it takes all our time.” What do you think he meant by that? Was he just being clever, or did he mean something deeper? What does the quote mean to you?
By now, it should be clear that the questions are there to help launch your thinking; don’t just answer them in a list. A well-developed journal will address the fundamental ideas, explore connections between the issues brought up, demonstrate your understanding of the key concepts, and communicate your thoughts in a clear and compelling manner.
