hint:
published sources
will have issue or volume numbers, look for those). Avoid web pages of individuals or groups that are unfamiliar
to you.
Look for topics that contain complete articles, not a synopsis of a disease or disorder.

whole magazines please)

your summary
to be handed in together. Do not place the
paper in a binder or folder. No electronic papers will be accepted.
Read the article and then summarize the article, in your own words

original sentences will
not make the summary your own. It should be
TYPED

inch margins, and the font size should be similar to the type used in this
handout. On a
cover sheet

Article subject is not appropriate to a biology class
(i.e.,
its
about the planet Mars
or ethics or politics
)
.
Summary is too short or too lo
ng. Article isnt current. A copy of the article is not included, a cover sheet is not
included, and/or the article, summary, and cover sheet are not stapled together. Source of article is not a
published source, but rather is encyclopedic in nature or f
rom a groups website. The font is too large, the
margins are too large or you did not double
–
space the type. Your cover page isnt complete. Your summary fails
to convey the main point of your article or has lots of personal opinion included. Excessiv
e spelling or grammar
errors are especially bad, all computers now have spell checkers and grammar checkers, use them.

Option #1: Your Position on Pirated MoviesDevelop a thesis statement on the topic of pirated movies (piracy hurts the economy by…, society can prevent movie piracy by…, etc.) and write an argumentative essay. Strive for at least three strong arguments in addition to a counterargument and refutation (this resource [pdf] will help you craft your counter argument and refutation). Using argumentative topic sentences that include your opinion for each section can help ensure the majority of your essay is argumentative. Beginning of a sample topic sentence: “The first way movie piracy hurts the economy is….” Then be sure to support that claim with researched data. Conclude each paragraph with a sentence that summarizes the paragraph’s main ideas.Sample Thesis Statement:Ideally, a thesis would include the major assignment objectives for the essay, which in this case would be your claim/opinion, reasons why you have that opinion, and the counter-argument: “Movie piracy is unethical because (add argument 1), (add argument 2), and (add argument 3), even though (add counterargument focus).” Note that a thorough thesis statement will include the counterargument in addition to your own arguments.See The Top Ten Tips for College-Level Writing (Presentation) for more thesis statement assistance.Use at least three credible sources (the author should be considered an expert on the topic in which he or she writes; try Google Scholar to search), such as books, articles, and websites, to support your thesis. Include a mix of cited paraphrases, summaries, and quotes in your argumentative research paper. Use MLA format (Tip: You will find useful MLA resources within the course topics, particularly in Topic 9) to create proper parenthetical citations as well as a Works Cited page at the end of your essay.

ASSESSMENT TASK 3: Conflict Map
Aligned course learning outcomes
CLO 8-1 Synthesize complex conflict and related theories and standards for professional practice in CMR CLO 8-2 Critically analyse a range of complex conflicts and conflict management systems CLO 8-3 Provide general advice to assist individuals, groups and organisations to constructively manage conflict Group or individual.
Weighting 50% Due date 24th Oct
DESCRIPTION Word count: 3,000 words (+/-10%)

You have been hired as a conflict specialist by a client to analyse a conflict (depending on the conflict scenario that students can choose from, this client could for example be an NGO or a local government) that they would like to intervene in. You have been asked to prepare a report in which you map the conflict using the Shay Bright conflict map.

Your report should:

1) include a comprehensive conflict map (using Shay Brights Conflict Mapping Chart) of the conflict 2) be presented in a professional format, reflecting a balanced, non-biased analysis of the conflict 3) consider relevant concepts and theories you were introduced to during this subject 4) be presented as an academic paper (introduction, main body, conclusion; proper referencing of sources (including conflict theory sources and sources providing information about the conflict)

Several conflicts are available that you can choose to analyse for this assignment (please see LearnJCU>Assessment>Task 3>Conflict Scenarios).

It is important that you sign up for one of these conflicts as early as possible by sending your lecturer an email to request to work with the conflict of your choice. This is to ensure that not all students are working on the same conflict. The process of signing up will work on a first come, first served basis. Each conflict scenario listed on LearnJCU comes with at least one resource that you should consider to gather information about your conflict. You will need to do some further research to get a more comprehensive picture of your conflict, which is needed for a balanced analysis.

You may also choose to map a different conflict which is not part of the list. If you choose to do this, you will be required to do your own research for your conflict. You will still need to send an email to your lecturer to get approval to work with the conflict. The conflict needs to be

adequately complex in the public eye approved by the lecturer at the latest 2 weeks before the due date of the task (and before you start working on your conflict analysis)
