Discuss how this issue affects you at a personal level.

Choose one of the two below questions to answer for this paper. DO NOT ANSWER BOTH, CHOOSE EITHER ONE OR TWO BUT NOT BOTH.(First Choice) In chapter two we covered several arguments that deal with whether or not there is mind or only a physical brain that directs thinking. Take a position whether you think there is a mind separate from the body (brain)and explain how, given your choice you think the two interact. Alternatively you may take the position that there is only a physical brain that directs thinking and explain how one would account for the operations usually ascribed to mind. You should begin by stating the position you want to defend and say whether or not you agree with this argument. If you disagree with this argument take any of the counter arguments for the opposing position and be sure to: (1) give a brief outline of this argument, (2) tell me what its strong points are, and (3) subject it to a thought experiment of your own design (that means, don’t copy from the book), to show why mind separate from the physical body is not a viable position. Finally, discuss how this issue affects you at a personal level.(Second Choice) In chapter 3 you learned about issues and arguments associated with the question of free will. The issue I would like you to discuss is whether you think free will and voluntary action is possible and how you would explain why we are free even though the universe around us operates according to a fixed and fully determined set of laws. In other words how is it possible, if in fact is possible, to act in a voluntary manner (meaning we all take full responsibility for our actions), while all the laws of nature seem to say otherwise. Take a position whether you think free will is possible. You should begin by stating the determinist position and say whether or not you agree with this argument. If you agree with this argument take any of the counter arguments for freedom of the will and be sure to: (1) give a brief outline of this argument, (2) tell me what its strong points are, and (3) subject it to a thought experiment of your own design (that means, don’t copy from the book), to show why free will is a viable position. Finally, discuss how this issue affects you at a personal level. ((Also, don’t worry about the sources.))

what effects of global climate change your park is already experiencing, what the projected impacts of climate change on your park may be?

Earth Science in a National ParkChoose a national park of particular interest to you; here is a list of all 58 of them: https://www.nationalpark-adventures.com/united-states-national-parks.html (Links to an external site.). What does Earth Science reveal about that national park through time? This research paper will provide you with an opportunity to learn more about a chosen park. In your report, be sure to cover the following topics:The geography of your national park – where it is located on Earth, what the topography is like (major mountains, lakes, etc.), and what surface processes are currently shaping it (rivers, ocean waves, etc.)The plate tectonic setting of your national park – where it is located relative to plate boundaries, what tectonic processes are active in your region (earthquakes, volcanoes, etc.)The geologic story of your national park – what rocks and minerals are found there, and what stories they tell about how your park has changed over geologic time. (For instance, was it once the site of an ocean or sea? If so, what evidence is there for that, and when did it happen?)The weather and climate of your national park – what the climate is like in your park, what extreme weather your park experiences, what effects of global climate change your park is already experiencing, what the projected impacts of climate change on your park may be—and what is currently being done, if anything, to address these challenges.

A good rule of thumb is if you are tempted to title your discussion something regarding a life form or a virus, it’s probably not going to get credit for you in the discussion.

For credit each week, you will be graded on participating in a student-led “Discussions” forum where you will start topics and/or reply to topics already started. Your discussion choices can be any topic focused on Earth Science. Examples of the most popular topic types are:Current Earth Science happenings in the news;Lecture related topics for that week;A documentary watched for the course.You can discuss anything focused on the Earth Sciences as part of this assignment. However, be aware that pure biological science posts that do not have an Earth Science focus, including marine biology posts and COVID-19 posts are considered off-topic and will not count for credit. This is because you are taking a physical science and not a biological science course. A good rule of thumb is if you are tempted to title your discussion something regarding a life form or a virus, it’s probably not going to get credit for you in the discussion. However, you can always check with me before posting if you want to make sure your new topic will count for credit. Also note that replies to off-topic posts will also not count for credit regardless of focus, so be sure to avoid these threads if they are present.What criteria is used to grade this assignment?Please click the link below:https://deanza.instructure.com/courses/12194/files/2608886/download?verifier=V6pfupy2KulBv66HgT5mMDl1dbsCbbENRVHLJtfk&wrap=1Note that I recommend posting at least three times during the week in such a way that follows the rubric document above. There is no minimum or maximum word count, BUT your post should be thoughtful enough that I can grade you adequately on the physical science content of your post. See rubric document above for details.

Describe Harvard’s Implicit Association Test (IAT).

The Implicit Association Test (IAT) measures attitudes and beliefs that people may be unwilling or unable to report. The IAT may be especially interesting if it shows that you have an implicit attitude that you did not know about.For example, you may believe that women and men should be equally associated with science, but your automatic associations could show that you (like many others) associate men with science more than you associate women with science.Step 1) Take any test on the website – you need to click on the “proceed” button on the end of the page.Step 2) In you post, indicate which test you chose to take and why. If you are willing, share your results; however, this is not required. It’s non of our business how you scored.Step 3) Briefly write if you’ve been able to take something of value from this test experience.
