 Superman and Me By Sherman Alexie
The analysis should pick apart Alexie’s subtle argument about his own development as a writer, and about how writers become successful.

Please read over the following assignment PROMPT for Unit 4. 

  • Format: Typed, double-spaced, submitted as a word-processing document.
    12 point, text-weight font, 1-inch margins.
  • Length: 1000 words (approx. 4 pages)
  • Overview: in Unit 4: Writing Analysis, students will develop an analytical argument that shows original thinking and offers insight into their topic. They will offer conclusions that address the implications of how their perspective might influence the way the topic is perceived or practiced.

Assignment

Write an analysis of a journal article, magazine article, editorial, speech, book, or website.
Analysis is a common form of academic writing that asks us to think critically as readers and make connections between arguments and their larger contexts. For this project, you will identify an issue relevant to the community you investigated in the previous unit. Then, you will explore the written arguments surrounding that issue, eventually narrowing your focus to a single journal article, magazine article, editorial, speech, book, or website. After you choose this text, you will analyze the context, subtext and appeals of a particular text, focusing on both textual analysis (close reading of the text itself) and contextual analysis (analyzing the text within its larger context). Your final analysis should offer a better or richer understanding of how the text represents a topic (concept, issue, or other idea) that has significance for a specific community or communities (168).

Objectives

These questions help to guide discussion and inquiry for this unit. The goal is not necessarily to answer these questions, but to explore them through the work of class discussions, writing, and reflection.

  • What is analysis? What is the purpose and value of analysis in classroom settings and outside of school?
  • What potential does writing have to make change in the world? What are the implications of written arguments? What impacts can arguments have on communities?
  • How can I use writing to explain and break down complex ideas into parts that audiences can understand? How can writing allow me to share my insight with others?
  • How can I use writing to advance larger points or ideas that I want to communicate? How can I advocate through writing?

In  some  ways,  analyzing  a  written  text  is  relatively  easy  because  the  elements  are  literally  printed  or  posted  in  black  and  white.  However,  written  texts  have  many  elements,  not  just  words but layers of implication and suggestion. There are subtleties lurking between, beneath, and around the text itself. No matter what you are analyzing—a blog, magazine article, jour-nal article, or even a book—the process involves a sizable set of questions.

Point of Contact
Your  target  text  can  be  any  written  published  document.  We  suggest  that  you  choose  something easily accessible—a text that you can review often or even annotate as you read. Consider one of the following options for your analysis. And for more information on each category, see pages 442–445 in Chapter 15:

Journal Articles: Journals are written for scholars in a specific academic field such as history, linguistics, rhetoric, engineering, nursing, or chemistry. The information is specialized—sometimes so highly specialized that following the logic proves difficult  to those outside of the field. Still, not all journal articles require years of study or expertise. In fact, finding a journal related to your chosen field may generate good  analytical focus. If you are studying psychology, for instance, you might find an  interesting article in Psychology Quarterly.
Magazine Articles: Magazines are aimed at general audiences rather than scholars in a specific discipline. The information is presented so that nonspecialized readers can easily follow the ideas and consider the claims. You might think of magazines in two—very broad—categories: the widest possible readership and special interest. The first category usually provides highly accessible articles. They are brief (less than 500 words), accompanied by photos, and come to quick conclusions. Some titles include Better Homes and Gardens, Cosmopolitan, Men’s Health, Sports Illustrated, Women’s Day. The second category offers more in-depth reporting, longer analyses, and even personal essays written by specialists in a field. Titles include The Economist, Forbes, National Geographic, Orion, Scientific American.
Books: An entire book could serve as a target text—especially if the book makes a sin-gle and coherent argument or stays focused on a particular event. The upside of taking on a book is the sheer amount of material. There is plenty to consider. However, the amount of text could also pose a challenge. If you are dealing with hundreds of pages, you might find it difficult to narrow down the main idea—the thesis, the supporting premises, or even the purpose.

Care Unit

I currently work at a transitional care unit; we do the admissions for the whole clinic, cover the perception unit, and recoup all cardiovascular cath, pacemaker, and removal patients. Obviously we have a wide assortment of patients and keenness levels. Passing isn’t an ordinary event, yet it happens reasonably consistently. I have tended to patients on comfort mind just, currently kicking the bucket, and those that pass surprisingly because of heart failure. The plain first patient I had passed was a patient with terminal lung tumor. This experience genuinely opened my eyes to the agony and enduring numerous tumor patients perseveres. He was in horrible agony, where over a 4 hour time span he got 18mg of Dilaudid, and this scarcely made him agreeable. It was in this time I considered demise to be a help, so both him and his relatives.

I am ready to see passing from an exceptionally medicinal and logical point. In that passing does not trouble me to such an extent. I consider it to be a wild factor we as a whole should confront multi day. Including medicinal services aliments that prompt passing likewise makes a difference. At the point when my granddad passed away I was miserable for his misfortune, yet additionally mitigated that he every other week excursions to the ED for either CHF or DKA were finished. I knew he was prepared to go on as well. 

With this viewpoint I have been called craze about the subject. My mother does not see how I am ready to see death in such an easygoing way. I don’t feel I see it in an easygoing way, however a scientific and restorative way. I don’t know what occurs after death, but rather I discover comfort in knowing something more lies past it.

Comment2

I work in a telemetry floor. As well as post-cath lab procedures, we admit patient with diverse diseases. Most of them have been discharge home safely but many of the patients have died during our care. My first death was a woman around her 40s with a beautiful family. Unfortunately, eight months before she was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Her body only resisted one chemotherapy. I had this patient every night since she got admitted and I knew how much she wanted to live. Four weeks passed, and she got even worse. Everyone on the floor knew this patient. I can still remember her name and how many times she told me she wanted to live her life as normal person again. The night of her death was a sad night, but she was ready to go on. There were tears and even more when I was receiving a hug from the husband and the thankfulness for his wife care during her hospitalization. That was an unforgettable experience.

After that night I keep think how people still fight over material things; how is more important money that feelings. How many persons do not have respect for life? Life is short and sometimes unfair, but still is life, and still is beautiful. It is important to spend time with those who we love, and remind them every day how much you love those moments together.

PLEASE RESPOND TO BOTH DISCUSSION 100 WORDS EACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
discussion1  noriko
It makes sense that non-for-profit organizations such as government, educational institutions, and community have different types of accounting. A prime example of a not-for-profit organization is governmental organizations. Governmental organizations use the governmental accounting standards board (GASB) instead of using financial accounting (FASB) as private businesses usually use. Even though private businesses such as Walmart, Apple, and Googles have a profit motive concept, non-for-profit organizations usually have a different purpose and aspects of view. Private businesses have concentrated on economic resource measurements that specifically try to measure the economic flow and adjust the monetary transactions based on those differences. However, non-for-profit organizations have management focused on the current financial resources that eliminate consideration of long-term resources and transactions such as long-term debt, investment, and assets. Non-for-profit organizations mainly consider current monetary transactions.
Non-profit organizations primarily focus on establishing the financial statement to make political and social decisions for following finical years based on current fiscal years of actual and budget compliance. That being said, non-profit organizations have to follow the principle of inter-period equity concept that shows whether current budgeted expenditures are covered by actual expenditures. When their budgeted compliances are not followed accordingly and cannot accomplish the current projects with the defined estimated funds, it causes problems that non-profit organizations have to consider review the budgeted funds with actual funds from their reported financial statement by compared with previous statements. According to Joseph (2019), non-profit organizations have to use the funds from current taxpayers that lead to spending for them in a finical year and cannot leave the expenditures to future taxpayers (budget on them). Thus, the accurate allocation of funds is very important for not-for-profit organizations. On the other hand, private businesses only focus on profit from their sales. Those are the huge differences that conclude non-profit organizations should use different accounting types to clarify what funds are expenses from different views.

discussion 2 Eri
 
Not-for-profit organizations are not your typical business in the sense that they are not built to make a profit. Instead their main focus is to serve the people without expecting anything in return. Nonprofit organizations drive under the mission of serving the needs of society. Nor-for-profit organizations don’t have an owner(s) or stockholders that they need to report too or demonstrate that they can turn a profit in the next quarter. Instead they rely on income from fundraising events, contributions, public and private grants, program revenues, membership dues, and investment income. Since they serve different purposes, then their accounting needs will be different and NFP will lean towards fund accounting, with a focus on accountability rather than profitability. Fund accounting will allow NFP organizations to separate their resources into different accounts in order to identify where they need to spend the income and identify the use for it. Their reporting process and requirements will change. For instance, a NFP organization can be exempt from income taxes if they are approved by the IRS while a typical entity is required to pay yearly taxes or risk having the government step in and charge them on tax evasion.
Not-for-profit organizations doesn’t have stockholders that they need to maintain and keep happy. In that sense, they don’t report to anyone and are not required to have a balance sheet, statement of stockholder’s equity, income statement, or statement of operations. These would be document’s an investor/stockholder would need to determine if the organization is profitable and a reasonable investment. A NFP doesn’t have to demonstrate to stockholders how their money is being spent and invested, instead they provide a statement of activities that will keep track of their assets and liabilities to give you an ending net asset total. To keep track of their assets, a NFP will separate them into three categories: unrestricted, temporarily restricted, and permanently restricted. This will allow them to allocate funds for particular projects without risking the funds being used elsewhere. A profit entity would use one general ledger to keep track of all accounts while a NFP will have separate ledger accounts for each one of its different bank accounts/major programs.
