Especially, how does the opening of Virgil’s poem sound out themes that are unique to Roman culture, its historical role, and its age?

BBC News, Washington.Assignment: Develop a PowerPoint Presentation: Prosocial and Aggressive Behavior in TeensDue May 31 at 11:59 PMFor this task, imagine that you were asked to prepare a PowerPoint presentation suitable to give to the local school board and community of educators and psychologists, as well as concerned parents, in response to recent incidents of violence and aggression among teens at the local high school. Several of these incidents involve copycat crimes from events that occurred in the community (graffiti, vandalism, bullying), and these events were regularly publicized on the local news.Your presentation will outline your design for an intervention. To start, provide a list of 10 overall recommendations to the school board, based on the scholarly peer-reviewed literature, for ways to not only promote prosocial behavior among teens at the local high school where these events transpired, but also to recommend ways to reduce aggressive and violent behaviors among these teens. Be mindful of ethical rules and guidelines for research in psychology.Synthesize and support your recommendations with citations as evidence for your arguments concerning how to prevent these types of behaviors from occurring, along with additional strategies to use within the schools to promote prosocial helping behaviors.Incorporate appropriate animations, transitions, and graphics as well as “speaker notes” for each slide. The speaker notes may be comprised of brief paragraphs or bulleted lists. Support your presentation with at least 10 scholarly resources.
Assignment #3:One of the greatest mysteries of all time is how life originated on Planet Earth. Even the most basic and primitive cells are incredibly sophisticated and complex mini-universes that defy explanation as to how they formed. Did life come from space, or did it appear spontaneously here on Earth? Is the origin of life unique to Earth, or has it happened many times before on other planets and moons of the Solar System and the universe? Did life start with RNA or DNA, or none of them? Did meteors carry life to Earth? Was Earth different than it is today when life started on this planet? Did life appear when there was no water on Earth? What do we call “life”? Is a virus alive, for example? Did life start with cells, or did it start with molecules? If formed on this planet, what ingredients were needed to form it? Did it form in one year, a thousand years, or a million years? How exactly? If we would like to form life in an Earth Science lab, would we be able to do it? How can the origin of life be so mysterious when it is all around Earth?Investigate about the origin of life on Earth and write an essay about it.
