What is the difference between language and speech and between language and sign languages.

Assignment on Nonhuman Primate Sign Language

One major debate among primatologists and linguists alike is whether nonhuman primates such as chimpanzees and gorillas are capable of language and, if so, to what extent they are. In this assignment, you are asked to review Chapter 1 of the Rowe-Levine text, especially the attributes of nonhuman communication versus human language (pp. 10-12) accounts of possible language in the behavior of Washoe (a chimp), Kanzi (a bonobo), and Koko (a gorilla) (pp 12-14); and skepticism over ape language studies (pp. 15-20).

You are then asked to view a short take from Among the Wild Chimpanzees and the video A Conversation with Koko in its entirety. I suggest that you take notes while viewing both films. You may do this assignment singly or in groups of up to three.

Finally, please answer the following questions based on the lecture, the reading and the video. Value: 10 points each question; total, 100 points.Due date: final day of class. :

1.What is the difference between language and speech and between language and sign languages.
2.Compare the brain structure of humans with those of nonhuman primates such as chimps. (pp. 19-21 of text. )
3.From viewing the chimps in the wild (Among the Wild Chimpanzees), can they be said to have a language? Include chimp displays in dominance behavior, behavior in warfare, and grooming and begging behavior.
4.From viewing Koko alone, does Koko have a language? How about Michael? Give examples from both cases.
5.Describe Koko’s use of sign language. Include productivity in your discussion; what new signs does she create?
6.Has Francine (Penny) Patterson made the case that gorillas are capable of language? Please explain your answer.

Assess and evaluate the rationales for why people in the 1960s and early 1970s opposed the Vietnam War.

Perhaps more than any other conflict in U.S. history, the Vietnam War divided the nation as it elicited debates over U.S. foreign policy in Southeast Asia. A diverse range of people increasingly opposed the Vietnam War, and used an array of tactics and texts to persuade fellow citizens to end the conflict. In addition to the numerous marches and protests, anti-war proponents created a tremendous archive of documents that express how and why they felt the Vietnam War was unnecessary, illegitimate, and/or immoral.
In this paper, students will assess and evaluate the rationales for why people in the 1960s and early 1970s opposed the Vietnam War. The goal of this paper is not to take a side in this debate; rather, it is to try to understand the arguments against the war made at the time. To do so, students will engage with the three texts:

Use descriptive statistics to EXPLORE and summarize the response variables (Chol, stab.glu, hdl, ratio, glyhb, weight, bp1,bp2, waist and hip) by gender, location and frame.

1. Use descriptive statistics to EXPLORE and summarize the response variables (Chol, stab.glu, hdl, ratio, glyhb, weight, bp1,bp2, waist and hip) by gender, location and frame.
2. Give point estimates for the proportion of respondents according to their gender, location and frame.
3. Is there any significant difference in the chol, stab.glu, and glyhb true means due to gender and location separately and respectively? Use a 0.05 level of significance
