Early Childhood Education STANCE ESSAY

Stance Essay Due Week 10 and worth 230 points Congratulations! You made it to your final assignment, and you have learned so much along the way. In the personal essay, you learned how to write with a strong personal voice. In the informative essay, you learned how to write objectively and support your points with credible sources to inform the audience. Now in your final assignment, you will combine these writing techniques to write a stance essay. A stance essay takes a position on a topic and argues and supports that position with evidence. Consider your topic: What possible positions/arguments are there? What position resonates with you? (Which position do you believe is correct?) What are your main points? What are the counterpoints? Are you ready to dispute them? Do you have enough evidence to effectively support your argument? For the stance essay, your personal voice (your perspective) should come through. This is just like assignment 1, except you should maintain a formal tone. And just like assignment 2, you will need to support your points with credible sources. Youre ready to take a position on the topic you have been writing about and to be persuasive!

Does it express your attitude about the topic? Write an introduction paragraph, which includes your thesis statement. It is suggested that this paragraph contain 5-7 sentences. Does your introduction include solutions or approaches on the topic? Does your thesis statement include three supporting reasons that clearly express your stance on the topic? Is your thesis statement clear and concise? Does your introduction provide a preview of the rest of your essay? Write a supporting/body paragraph for each of the three (3) points/reasons from your thesis statement. It is suggest- ed that each paragraph contain at least 5-7 sentences. Do your body paragraphs support each point of your thesis with relevant examples or statistics? Do you address the opinions or concerns that your audience might have? Did you paraphrase, quote, or summarize properly to avoid plagiarism? Did you comment on each quotation? Write with logic and with transitions throughout your paper. Are your ideas consistent and well-organized, ., chronological order or order of importance? Do your ideas flow from one sentence to the next and one paragraph to the next, in the order presented in your thesis statement? Write a conclusion paragraph. It is suggested that this paragraph contain 5-7 sentences. Did you paraphrase or restate the thesis in a new way? Did you leave a lasting impression, so that your readers continue thinking about your topic after they have finished reading? Apply proper grammar, mechanics, punctuation and APA formatting throughout your paper. Did you check your grammar? The way words are put together to make units of meaning: Sentence structure, pronoun-agreement, etc. Did you check your essay for mechanics?

Forecasting Box Office Returns:Which forecasting method of those that you tried do you have the most confidence for making accurate forecasts for 1997?

1. Produce a time series plot of the data. From this graph, do you see a pattern? Can you see any seasonality in the data? 2. Use exponential smoothing to fit the data. Select an appropriate constant ? based on the variation you see in the data. Comment on the appropriateness of exponential smoothing on this data set. Plot the predictions from this model on the graph with the original data. How well does this technique fit the data? Make forecasts for 1997. 3. Use regression to build a linear trend model. Comment on the goodness-of-fit of this model to the data (or, how well does R2 explain the variance in the data?). Plot the predictions from this model on the graph with the original data. 4. Develop multiplicative seasonal indices for the linear trend model developed in question 3. Use these indices to adjust predictions from the linear trend model from question 3 above for seasonal effects. Plot the predictions from this model on the graph with the original data. How well does this technique fit the data? Make forecasts for the next 12 months of 1997 using this technique. 5. Which forecasting method of those that you tried do you have the most confidence for making accurate forecasts for 1997?
