Objectives
Upon successful completion of this assignment, students will be able to

  • Write a critical essay about a novel or novella that demonstrates well thought out arguments and
  • Analyse the way writers use work choice in complex characterization

Students are asked to write an integrative, critical essay of at least 2,000 words (+/- 200 words) on either Last Night at the Lobster or Keep the Aspidistra Flying. The essay should connect the workplace themes of the course, such as lack of work opportunities, lack of fulfillment in work, conformity based on necessity, search for freedom as balanced against social awareness and commitment to family, society, and nation.
The overall intent is to discuss the construction of a workplace identity in the main character and to show how this individual is able to negotiate a reasonable compromise between success and failure. The thesis statement could well draw attention to bigger historic and social issues, such as the role of the artist in the contemporary world and the effects of franchise and big business on blue collar workers.
The essay must analyze the characterization, focusing on character change and development, in the chosen novel. The essay may draw on secondary sources, as long as they are documented correctly using APA formats.
Instructions:
1. Choose the novel that resonates with you, your program of study, and your own work experiences.
a. For example, if you wish to explore a concept such as the effect of space and environment on people’s daily lives, then the Orwell novel might suit you.
b. Consider the text you have the strongest reaction to, whether positive or negative. Since it is clear that Last Day at the Lobster is shorter than the Orwell novel, (and a recent publication from a writer yet to be established in the literary canon, and also a novella (short novel) with the characteristics of that subgenre of fiction), it may seem the easier choice. However, the Orwell novel has much to say about the writer’s life that is linked to the business world, in terms of the book business, and takes a wider view of experiences that may be more accessible to readers, especially to those who have read 1984. One text can be related to food issues in our culture today and the other to the place of creative people in the workplace.
2. Compose a working thesis statement that shows your view of the main character in the novel. Then add a list of your own readers’ statements.
3. Working from you’re the notes you took as you read and class discussions, compose a draft, inserting quotations from the novel and drawing from examples.
4. Consider whether secondary sources such as academic journal articles might be helpful. In the case of Orwell, the supply of information and scholarly analysis would be endless. Bear in mind that these sources are only useful if they help you to answer your own readers’ questions.
5. Organize your essay carefully.
6. Write a second draft that is structured, with arguments and subtopics set out.
7. Check for accuracy in quotations and documentation of key scenes. Add page references.
8. Revise to create a nearly finished product.
9. Edit to correct spelling, punctuation, sentencing, and final working of the thesis.

The transformation is accompanied by a change of tone and language from sad to happy. The main themes such as the position of a woman in society make the story easy to follow. The author also uses other literacy skills like the symbolism of the pond to indicate things like transformation. Other literacy skills applied include a vivid description
     
     
     
     
    WRITING ANALYSIS FORSHORT FICTION
     
     
    Writing the Fiction Paper
     
    In writing this paper, you do not write a story: you write a critical paper ABOUT your chosen story, thus becoming a literary critic.
     
    This particular literary analysis is basically reader-response criticism. You state a particular meaning that the story communicates to you and explain how you found this meaning.
    After focusing the subject on a particular relationship or issue, the next step is to consider your short story for help in formulating a theme―an assertion (claim) about the particular aspect of your issue. The assertion of theme will provide the central idea for your paper.
     
    After formulating a central idea, the next step is to formulate a thesis statement as the primary claim of your argument. The assignment directs you to use fictional elements as your thesis points. While forming the thesis, you will want to give some thought to which elements to choose and how you can order them most effectively in your thesis statements.
     
    After delineating the structure of the paper, you must develop each point with specific support from the fictional work and with your own commentary. While you may use more than one piece of evidence to develop a point in the story, you must use at least one specific quote to support each point. Surround each piece of evidence and each quote with commentary and explanation that links it specifically to the point and the central idea (which should already be linked in the topic sentence). Also, be sure to punctuate and cite each quote correctly.
     
    You may use outside source material if you choose, but it is not mandatory.   If used, be sure to include in-text citations following quotes or paraphrases from the source.   Include any source material on the Works Cited page which should also have the listing of the author, title and source of the story.    All entries must be alphabetical by the authors’ last names!!!!!!!
     
    The following is an example of an introductory paragraph based on the story Everyday Use which you have read but CANNOT use for the essay.
     
    Student name
    English 1302
    Professor Bob
    Date
     
    The Importance of Family Heritage in Everyday Use
     
    Family members are inclined to value their heritage in different ways.  Some value the history of the family as it relates to political importance and influence.  Some value the history of family as it relates to ownership of land and the length of possession by succeeding generations.  Others value the financial holdings of the family.  Still others value the heritage of the family by treasuring the possessions of earlier family members whose influence continues to be felt in their lives.  The symbolic settings, the development of character, and the resolution of Alice Walker’s Everyday Use highlights the importance of family heritage and features the tension between a mother and her two daughters as they discover the value of that heritage.
    Notice that the thesis sentence contains the three fictional elements on which the remainder of the paper will be based, as well as the name of the author and of the story.  The title and author should be included early in the presentation of the paper.
    As the paper continues, several paragraphs will discuss the importance of setting as it relates to the way in which the author makes use of this element of writing.  Quotes from the story will be used as evidence of the importance of setting.
    Next, several paragraphs will study the character development of Dee, Mama, and/or Maggie.  Quotes from the story will also be used to support the assertions of the writer of the paper.
     
    Finally, concluding paragraphs will explore the resolution to the problems of the story.  Again, quotes will also be used as support.
     
    Remember that the key to a good paper is that it be organized, and the thesis points make that very easy for you.
    Call or e-mail me if you have questions or if you need help with some aspects of your story.  Please do not take this assignment lightly; it is worth 200 points.  Call or e-mail if you need help or clarification.
     
    When finishing your paper, do not forget to include appropriate transitions within and between paragraphs.
    Guidelines for the Fiction Paper
    Developing each point sufficiently should yield the required 3- to 4+-page paper. Remember to format the paper according to Modern Language Association (MLA) guidelines.
     
    There must be a Works Cited page with the listing of the author, title, and publication information.   Any source material used must also be listed accordingly on the Works Cited page, with appropriate in-text citations within the paper.
     
    The guidelines include the use of literary conventions regarding verb tense, identifying authors and works, and referring to authors by their last names.
     
    In the past, papers reviewed containing misspelled words and names, as well as incorrect titles all received 5-point deductions. OUCH!/

Can you please reply to this post and include this reference
McGonigle, D. & Mastrian, K. (2018). Nursing informatics and the foundation of knowledge (4th ed.). Jones & Bartlett.
In the school setting, I have found the most beneficial technology is computer laptops. I have my own MacBook Pro which I am very grateful for because of the versatility and power that it possesses. In addition to this, it is also a portable device I can take anywhere with me. McGonigle and Mastrian (2018) state “computers can be used for data and information storage, retrieval, analysis, generation, and transformation”. I have been a student for most of my life, but now as a nursing student, I can greatly attest to that statement. My laptop allows me to complete all my nursing student responsibilities such as note-taking, researching and reviewing lecture PowerPoints. With the pandemic, it allows us students to connect with professors to attend lectures and clinical virtually, allowing us to continue our education in the midst of chaos. Moreover, computers are also largely beneficial in the medical field and are not going anywhere, anytime soon.
The least beneficial is the risk of patient privacy being compromised. Protecting health data gathered with patient care is a core value in health care (AMA). Healthcare providers (HCPs) all carry the task of protecting and maintaining the integrity of patients’ health information, but there is always a risk at bay. Specifically, private health information (PHI) is vulnerable to unintentional breaches, intentional breaches, outside attackers, and network issues (McGonigle & Mastrian, 2018). This issue can be improved by making changes to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) as technology changes to avoid an outdated privacy law.
My dream technology would be a type of microchip that was inserted temporarily into patients during their stay at the hospital. This microchip would be able to sense even the slightest changes in the body that would almost immediately alert the nurse. In doing so, the health care team is then able to intervene much quicker and the issue could be dealt with before it becomes anything serious. Some problems at their beginning stages can be insidious in nature and therefore go undetected until it’s too late. Once the patient is ready for discharge, the chip could be easily removed and either sterilized or discarded.
