Write a paper, 3 pages not including front matter and references, reporting your results. Include references to support your work.
Explain the following as if your reader had only a general understanding of statistics:

Task 1: A student was interested in whether there was a positive relationship between the time spent doing an essay and the mark received. He got 45 of his friends and timed how long they spent writing an essay (hours) and the percentage they got in the essay (essay). He also translated these grades into their degree classifications (grade): in the UK, a student can get a first-class mark (the best), an upper-second-class mark, a lower second, a third, a pass or a fail (the worst). Using the data in the file EssayMarks. sav, find out what the relationship was between the time spent doing an essay and the eventual mark in terms of percentage and degree class (draw a scatterplot too).

Recalling the functions of rhetoric, discuss how rhetoric functions in the narrative. Here are some questions you may want to consider in your analysis:
• Did the creator (i.e. author) of the narrative have an intent other
than to entertain?
• Did the choice of narrative “type” (i.e. a poem vs. a movie) play a role in the function of rhetoric in the narrative?
• Is the narrative used to “bring together individuals separated from one another by alienation and competition” (p. 210)?
• Does Burke’s concept of identification play a role?
• Is there extensive use of symbolism in the narrative?
• Can the narrative be analyzed in terms of Burke’s dramatistic
pentad?
• Is there form (i.e. syllogistic, qualitative, conventional) in the narrative?
• How did the situation (per Bitzer) play a role in the rhetoric of the narrative? Consider exigence, audience, contstraints,response.
• What role does language (per Bakhtin) play in the rhetoric of the
narrative?
• Is the creator’s (i.e. author’s) voice (per Bakhtin and Booth) evident in the narrative?
• What role do images (“The Rhetoric of Display”) have in the rhetoric of the narrative?

Not that these questions are not meant to be answered in your
paper. They are rhetorical!…meant to make you think on the
topic.

Please be sure to draw on direct examples from the narrative
in support of your points.

1. Social Contract Theory, the European Enlightenment and Deism had a profound impact on the thinking of American colonists. Thoroughly explain the theories that came out of the above movements, and describe how Americans like Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson responded. What were the implications of these philosophies on American thought and society? Be sure to discuss how each expanded the colonists’ definitions of liberty and individual rights.
2. To what degree was the American Revolution actually “revolutionary?” Did the Revolution transform social, political, and economic relationships in the young United States, or did it simply preserve the colonial status quo? Be sure to include how the Revolution affected both male and female patriots, African-Americans, Loyalists, and Native Americans.
Section II: Choose one of the following two questions to answer in your second essay.
1. How is U.S. Constitution a product of the United States’ political and economic environment in the immediate aftermath of the American Revolution? What specific domestic and ideological anxieties led to the Constitutional Convention of 1787, how were these addressed by the debates of the delegates, and how did the final document attempted to limit the revolutionary “Spirit of ‘76” still active in American politics at the time.
2. Despite the Founding Fathers’ stated fears of faction, the United States saw the emergence of the first party system during the 1790s. What caused the formation of the Federalists and Democratic-Republicans as two opposing political parties? How did these two parties reflect the respective personal visions of Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson? How did domestic and international events shape their early history? Was such a division inevitable and why?
