How do they make a decision about a place to live upon arrival, and who is involved in this process of decision-making?

NUMBER #2 you will need to make sure you’ve read the Zopf article and check out two additional links. This activity is adapated from Dr. Tanya Golash-Boza at UC Merced. YOUR TASKIn this activity, you will begin by reviewing 9 faces with names and racial/ethnic self-identifications provided. These individuals were chosen because many of them will move from one census category to another throughout the activity. Further, all of them are public figures in one way or another. Many are actors including, Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls), Lucy Liu (Charlie’s Angels/Kill Bill), Aziz Ansari (stand-up comedy/Master of None), Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation), Danny Trejo (Machete), aAnd Hiroyuki Sandara (Wolverine). LeBron James is considered the best player in the NBA and visible through advertisements. Diane Humetewa is the first Native American women to serve as a Federal U.S. Judge (Alagood 2016). Danny Ramadan is a Syrian refugee profiled in a Canadian newspaper. Every individual has stated their racial/ethnic heritage in a public forum. *Interestingly Rashida Jones has been trending on Twitter this past weekend due to her character in the new Kenya Barris Netflix show #blackAFPart I: Sorting Individuals by Racial Categories In the Sorting Activity, you will act as a Census Enumerator—a person who interviewed individuals for the Census—and you will sort the photos based on the charts focusing on these five time periods: 1790, 1860, 1930, 1970, 2000. Census categories will change in accordance with the legal decisions in practice at the time. However, when you begin in 1790 you are essentially only classifying the 9 individuals as White or Other. Throughout the activity, you will re-sort the individuals four times according to changes in the law and US Census. You also will classify yourself to see where you would have (or have not) fit in each Census.Part II: Journal EntryAfter you have sorted the individuals the last time, you will reflect and write your responses to the following questions in the discussion board. What thoughts and/or feelings came to mind as your moved through the activity of sorting individuals into racial categories?What are the reasonings for deciding who is White and who is other?What has this taught you about the construct of race in the United States?Link 1: Three ChartsRead this brief article and keep the charts up as they will have you in your task as a census enumerator. Link 2: Sorting People This link has the 9 individuals that you will categorize through those 5 time periods. NUMBER #3There are many immigrants who wish to move to the United States. How do they make a decision about a place to live upon arrival, and who is involved in this process of decision-making? For this activity, I want you to imagine that you have been hired by a nonprofit organization in the borough of Brooklyn to help immigrant families assess problems and issues they face migrating to the United States and to choose where they should settle.YOUR TASK:There are three families that you must help. Each family member has provided a narrative to help you understand what their specific migration concerns are. Please read carefully the family narratives on the paper and the city profiles. Think thoughtfully about the backgrounds of the cities suggested and use yourself as a cultural and social resource to help them.Each family wants to move to the U.S. but they have little to no knowledge about local culture and customs of specific cities. All of them need you to help deciding where they would like to migrate in the U.S., particularly among all the metropolitan cities in the country.What resources will each family need to adjust or settle in to life in the United States? What is the most important concern for this family?What difficulties would you think they would face migrating to the United States? What advantage do they have? How can these difficulties be resolved or avoided altogether?Assign each family a destination city. Why did you choose this city for a family starting a new life in America?What are the pros and cons of choosing this city? What family members may be advantaged or disadvantaged?I

Explain how the fallacies were used and the context in which they occurred.

The Prompt: Identify Three FallaciesOnce you learn the names of the major logical fallacies, you will probably start noticing them all over the place, including in advertisements, movies, TV shows, and everyday conversations. This can be both fascinating and frustrating, but it can certainly help you to avoid certain pitfalls in reasoning that are unfortunately very common. This exercise gives you a chance to practice identifying fallacies as they occur in daily life.Prepare: Read through Chapter 7 of the course text, paying special attention to learning the names of common fallacies, biases, and rhetorical tricks.Reflect: Search through common media sources looking for examples of fallacies. Some common places to find fallacies include advertisements, opinion pieces in news media, and arguments about politics, religion, and other controversial issues. You may also notice fallacies in your daily life.Write: Present three distinct informal logical fallacies you have discovered in these types of sources or in your life. Make sure to identify the specific fallacy committed by each example. Explain how the fallacies were used and the context in which they occurred. Finally, explain how the person should have presented the argument in order to avoid committing this logical error.

To what extent do you think computer-mediated communications may, or are, causing these vital skills to decrease in populations who use computer-mediated communications most heavily?

According to the textbook, computer-mediated communications do not reinforce oral, written (printed), musical, or non-verbal skills–the very skills that have historically been associated with scholarship, innovation, and creativity. To what extent do you think computer-mediated communications may, or are, causing these vital skills to decrease in populations who use computer-mediated communications most heavily? What compensations, if any, do computer-mediated communications offer? Give as many concrete examples as possible to illustrate and support your views.

Analyzing Big Data

The assignment is to analyze a big data technology using one (or more) of the theories we have covered in class. The term “big data technology” is meant very broadly here – it refers to a use of big data, an app, a particular physical technology that uses big data (GPS, Alexa, etc). Theories is also meant broadly. Some examples are the descriptions from Viktor Mayer-Schönburger and Kenneth Cukier such as correlation versus causation, all or some etc., Winner’s mythinformation (but not forms of life since that was the previous assignment), O’Neil’s description of weapons of math destruction, Igo or Merton on privacy, professionals, and so on.(Please use the topic of artificial intelligence in the medial filed and make sure to use the theories from the listed above books)Make sure all sources used are academic studies, analysis articles in newspapers, and in-depth magazine reports
