INSTRUCTIONS::

You will be required to choose a specific idea and write two, 2-page scripts, and a rewritten scene in Writers Guild of America (WGA) properly formatted page form. Each one of the 3 writing assignments will have a dedicated purpose.

Write down the first 2 pages in proper WGA screenplay format for your film idea. It should include an opening image and the theme of your film clearly stated.

Your "Script: Pages 1–2" must be submitted in Discussion Board Forum 4 by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Thursday and in a Word document by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Monday of Module/Week 6.

Choose one of your classmates' scripts (posted in Discussion Board Forum 4) and rewrite the script based on changing 3 of the 5 following elements:

Changing the location from a public space to a private space or vice versa.

Note that this change should be reflected in dialogue and a character's actions, because characters speak differently using their internal voice and private spaces whereas in a more public space they may be reluctant to express themselves is freely.

Changing the gender of the lead character and in so doing the dialogue.

should be changed to reflect the voice of an opposing gender.

Changing the time period.

Note that this change affects the technology that surrounds the characters as well as the cultural norms of the day.

Change the genre of the movie. 

Rewrite the script from the supporting character's point of view so that he/she become the lead in the movie.

Looking back at feedback provided by your fellow students regarding your first 2 pages (image and theme) as well as a rewrite (or rewrites) provided by your fellow students, make changes in your first 2 pages and continue to write the next 2 pages which will now include the setup and the catalyst, or “knock at the door” for your character.

The employment of different types of power might influence a team member's satisfaction, and thus, his or her motivation to continue. In regards to your current industry and/or the culture of your current organization, write a reflection paper that addresses the following requirements: Describe which motivational theory, as described in Harell and Daim in the required readings for this unit, would be the most appropriate for your industry/organization. Why? Describe which of the original power types from the French and Raven power taxonomy, as described by Elias (2008) in this unit's required readings, would fit best with the selected motivational theory. 

Your reflection paper should be three pages in length. APA format in text citations.  

Be sure to include the rubric elements from the guidelines below: The response reflects in-depth consideration and personalization of theories, concepts, and/or strategies. The writing should be clear and concise with proper sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation, and it should be free from spelling errors. The response includes all major components: accurate accounts of the topic area, critical analysis of the topic area, and scholarly or professional application of the topic area. The response demonstrates synthesis of ideas presented, and the implications of these insights for the learner's future learning are noted. 

 Be thorough and a good rule of thumb is to ask and address the "who, what, where, when, why, and how" questions when doing the paper and include a clear thesis as well as your conclusions and points.

Assignment: Introduction to Quantitative Analysis: Confidence Intervals

In your Week 2 Assignment, you displayed data based on a categorical variable and continuous variable from a specific dataset. In Week 3, you used the same variables as in Week 2 to perform a descriptive analysis of the data. For this Assignment, you will calculate a confidence interval in SPSS for one of the variables from your Week 2 and Week 3 Assignments.

To prepare for this Assignment:

· Review the Learning Resources related to probability, sampling distributions, and confidence intervals.

· For additional support, review the Skill Builder: Confidence Intervals and the Skill Builder: Sampling Distributions, which you can find by navigating back to your Blackboard Course Home Page. From there, locate the Skill Builder link in the left navigation pane.

· Using the SPSS software, open the Afrobarometer dataset or the High School Longitudinal Study dataset (whichever you chose) from Week 2.

· Choose an appropriate variable from Weeks 2 and 3 and calculate a confidence interval in SPSS.

· Once you perform your confidence interval, review Chapter 5 and 11 of the Wagner text to understand how to copy and paste your output into your Word document.

For this Assignment:

Write a 2- to 3-paragraph analysis of your results and include a copy and paste of the appropriate visual display of the data into your document.

Based on the results of your data in this confidence interval Assignment, provide a brief explanation of what the implications for social change might be.

In 1,500-2,000 words, describe the teaching experience and discuss your observations. The written portion of this assignment should include:
