Choose a nutritional or pharmacologic ergogenic aid that has been purported to improve exercise or athletic performance (it does not have to be one we discussed in class) IN REPORT FORMAT. You should use pubmed.gov to identify at least 3 research studies which support or deny efficacy (i.e. that the ergogenic aid works or not). The report should be a minimum length of 2 pages, double-spaced using times-new roman font and 1 inch margins. Be sure that you address the following questions in your report.1. What is the scientific rationale for using the ergogenic aid? In other words, why could the aid work to improve performance? (5 points)
2. Describe the performance measurements (i.e. 40 yard times, vertical jump) used to determine whether benefits were observed. (5 points)
3. Do the performance measurements support the claims that the ergogenic aid works. (5 points)
4. Provide references below in APA format. (5 points)

The abstract is a one paragraph description of your research. It tells the reader what they will find in the paper. The abstract immediately follows the title page. By having a clear research question and a solid abstract, you will be able to focus your thoughts as you engage in your research. One of the mistakes that many students make, when they create an abstract is that they use the first person. They will say something like: “In my paper, I will…” This is a big no, no. Do not use the first person. Instead say something like; “This paper will… Instead of saying “my research…, say “this research…” This is just the proper from for doing formal research.

ASSIGNMENT: Research, outline, and deliver an 6-8 minute problem-solving persuasive speech on a policy. According to Lucas a persuasive speech is designed to change or reinforce the audience’s beliefs or actions. The persuasive speech is more challenging than the informative speech because it requires more research and preparation time as well as more speaking time. You must effectively analyze your audience and use persuasive tools to adapt your message to them.
This assignment consists of three parts:

News Article Review: Your assignment is to find an article from a reputable and trustworthy source which engages faith or religion in some way. It will be your job to analyze the article and make explicit the connections to faith that are implicit in the article. The range of topics can be quite broad and general, including articles about any world faith tradition, including but not limited to Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Paganism, Occultism, Atheism, Native traditions as well as more obscure traditions.

Step 1: Locate an article. You can look in local newspapers, magazines or journals. You may also use online news sources, but not Facebook! Online articles must be from a legitimate and recognized source, including websites from well-known newspapers or magazines, as well as online-only news outlets that maintain a high standard of journalistic integrity. If you have any doubts or questions about your source please ask if it is acceptable before submitting your review. You must give a full bibliographic reference to the article, including a website if you use an online article, in order that I may find it to confirm information.

Step 2: You must briefly summarize the article in one paragraph so that readers can understand the context without having to read the entire article for themselves. This will test your ability to identify and communicate the main points of the article. This should be the shortest part of your review.

Step 3: The main body of your review should engage the themes of the article in a critical and thoughtful analysis. You should be able to make connections between the article and questions of faith and religion, especially those that have already been raised in this class. Your main interest should be why this article reflects something important about faith for our current day. Why are questions of faith relevant for understanding the significance of this article? Or how does an understanding of faith allow one to interpret this article? What important aspects of faith or religion are being communicated in the article and why does it matter? This section should be approximately 2-3 paragraphs long and take up about a page and a half of your full review.

Step 4: Finally you should write a conclusion that summarizes the points which you made and their importance. This should likewise be only one paragraph long and should not present new information, but summarize and emphasize the most important aspects of what has already been said. You may indicate further questions that remain, which you think your readers might consider pondering, or that you are unable to answer yourself, but pose important queries of the article or themes.

In this essay, you will articulate your view of the world from a cultural point of view. Looking at Kurosawa’s Dreams and Coffee & Cigarettes in one way, both films are depictions of a culture. If you were to make your own film as a depiction of culture, but of your own cultural world, how would you structure it? What would it look like – would it be more like Coffee & Cigarettes or Dreams? How would it be different from them? This should be a somewhat informal essay – feel free to use first person – but one informed by your watching of these two films. Make sure to use MLA format if you cite the films, or any writing that talks about these two films. 5-7 pages, double spaced.
