Paper #3
Discourse Communities
(150 points)
We have been exploring the concepts of Discourse/discourse and Discourse communities. Linguists James Paul Gee and John Swales have shown us both how they define these terms and how they think they apply to the ability to learn. For this paper, you will choose a Discourse community that you are a member of (either expert or novice) or one that you wish to join and write a paper that informs the reader about your community and persuades the reader that your group qualifies as a Discourse community. While you will need to start with the six criteria that Swales lays out as your main framework, you will also need to incorporate Gee to help you explain what you mean even further. I am expecting some vocabulary words like mushfake, identity kit, primary/ secondary and dominant/non-dominant Discourse, etc. to make their way into your work alongside definitions and explanations of all six of Swales’ criteria. Remember to forward the ideas presented in Gee and Swales to help convince your reader that your community is a DC. This paper is examining your ability to define the concept of a DC and your ability to incorporate authors and their concepts into your own writing.
Requirements
Format: MLA, 12 point Times New Roman font, double-spaced, 1” margins
Length: 3-5 pages, not including your Works Cited page
Works Cited: Must use Gee and Swales, can bring in other sources if need
Authors Silzer and Davis (2010) contended that organizations have much to gain by using assessments to determine the future potential of individual employees. What, according to these authors, are the appropriate uses of assessment to identify high potential individuals for growth and development opportunities? What cautions did Silzer and Davis believe should be followed when assessing potential? How can assessments be used both to evaluate past performance and to predict future success? Which types of assessments are most valid for predicting future success? Support your answer, referencing course readings and other academic sources. Should be at least 300 words.
Discussion 2: The Legal Environment for Assessment
The legal landscape influencing the use of assessments for employment decisions has changed substantively over the past thirty years. Summarize the contemporary legal and professional standards that guide the use of assessments in the workplace, and describe the implications of these standards on organizations that decide to use assessments as a basis of employment decisions. Then, integrate your understanding of these standards to evaluate the steps outlined by authors Scott and Pearlman (2010) for using assessment to facilitate organizational change. How do the steps Scott and Pearlman proposed help an organization avoid the potential for liability when using assessments to guide personnel decisions during organizational transitions? Explain your answer, referencing course readings and other academic sources. Should be at least 300 words.

The introduction is the roadmap/outline to your paper. Following the introduction there must be a body containing the history of the attack/breach and an analysis of the incident that supports and proves your thesis.
