In The Stress-Proof Brain, Dr. Melanie Greenberg describes how stress can compromise and harm the human body. She writes: "If a stressor persists for more than a few minutes, your hypothalamus signals your pituitary gland to release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH signals your adrenal glands to release cortisol. Cortisol elevates your blood sugar and stimulates your liver to produce glucose, which is used by your brain to support attention and alertness. It prepares your organs to withstand stress, pain, or injury. Cortisol also suppresses non-emergency functions related to digestion, reproduction, growth, and resistance to disease. If cortisol sticks around for too long, the resultant immune-system suppression makes you more vulnerable to infection. This is why you're more likely to get sick if you're chronically stressed." (Greenberg 19) Read the statements below and decide which one(s) contain(s) plagiarism. Select all that apply.

Being stressed for longer periods will signal the pituitary gland to release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH signals your adrenal glands to release cortisol. Cortisol helps your body to be able to withstand pressure, hurt, or harm (Greenberg 19).

Mary Kate Cary writes, "I was telling my college-age daughter recently that back in the olden days when I went to college, you could fill a red Solo cup with beer at a fraternity party and sip it all night long. No one knew if it was your first beer or your 10th. There was no need for "pregaming" - binge drinking in private apartments or dorms before heading out in public. And unlike today, college kids didn't tend to use fake IDs as much. That's because when I was an undergrad, the drinking age was 19."

Here are the first and last lines only of a paragraph. Put the rest of the sentences in the paragraph in logical order. When we speak, we inhabit the communication situation bodily in three dimensions, but in writing we are confined within the two-dimensional setting of the flat page (though writing for the web--or multimodal writing--is changing all that. (First sentence) Novice writers often write as if they were mumbling to themselves in the corner with no sense that their writing will be read by a reader or any sense of the context within which their communication will be received. (Irvin 6) (Last sentence)

1. Writing resembles having a blindfold over our eyes and our hands tied behind our backs: we can't see exactly whom we're talking to or where we are. 2. Separated from our audience in place and time, we imaginatively have to create this context. 3. Our words on the page are silent, so we must use punctuation and word choice to communicate our tone. 4. We also can't see our audience to gauge how our communication is being received or if there will be some kind of response. 5. It's the same space we share right now as you read this essay.

This is why we sometimes attack who they are, which is far more hurtful than addressing a behavior or a choice. For our own sake, we need to understand that it's dangerous to our relationships and our well-being to get mired in shame and blame, or to be full of self-righteous anger. If we are going to practice acceptance and compassion, we need boundaries and accountability. (19) Read the student samples below and decide which one(s) contain(s) plagiarism.

In "Pedagogy and Political Commitment: A Comment," Bell Hooks argues that the classroom is a political space where students and professors should interrogate ideas about race, class, and sex. Her argument is persuasive because she effectively uses logic to show that acknowledging the political nature of education will create feelings of responsibility, both inside and outside of the classroom; and, she also effectively uses pathos when discussing the importance of discussing the plight of marginalized people.

Which is an appropriate paraphrase of the original text below? In The Sopranos, the mob is besieged as much by inner infidelity as it is by the federal government. Early in the series, the greatest threat to Tony's Family is his own biological family. One of his closest associates turns witness for the FBI, his mother colludes with his uncle to contract a hit on Tony, and his kids click through Web sites that track the federal crackdown in Tony's gangland.

In the first season of The Sopranos, Tony Soprano's mobster activities are more threatened by members of his biological family than by agents of the federal government. This familial betrayal is multi-pronged. Tony's closest friend and associate is an FBI informant, his mother and uncle are conspiring to have him killed, and his children are surfing the Web for information about his activities.

When analyzing the article, it is important to evaluate what the author could have done differently in order to make her/his argument more persuasive.

True

Whenever possible, give a source credibility by putting their credentials in the signal phrase. EG: According to poet Shel Silverstein, author of the best selling book Where the Sidewalk Ends....

True

Most medical people despised the press, holding attitudes not totally unfamiliar today. Reporters tended to be suckers for every quack, half-quack, over-eager scientist, or naive country doctor who thought he had a serum to cure tuberculosis, a herbal remedy for cancer, or a new surgical procedure to rejuvenate the aged. When the newspapers were not wasting space on undeserving medical stories, they were over-playing legitimate news, getting their facts wrong, and generally making a nuisance of themselves interfering in the lives and practices of busy professionals. Doctors' deep suspicion of what they read in the newspapers and even in the less-carefully edited of the medical journals, helps to explain some of the early skepticism about insulin in countries like Britain: Oh, the Americans are always curing everything; this week it's diabetes. Even in Canada and the United States it was some months before there was enough confirmation of the unlikely news from Toronto to convince wire services and the more skeptical doctors and editors that insulin was, indeed, the real thing. (Bliss 190) Consult the original text and then choose the best summary of Michael Bliss' book The Discovery of Insulin.

Michael Bliss remarks that insulin, as a treatment for diabetes, was not widely accepted for many months because doctors had become skeptical about the legitimacy of medical discoveries as reported in newspapers and by some less professional medical journals.

A student is writing an essay that argues experiences of bullying as a youth can result in problems with establishing intimate relationships as an adult. The student uses the words "bully" and "preadolescents" as key terms and locates the source below. Would Sachiko Kozasa's article, below, be relevant to the student's project? Works Cited Sachiko Kozasa, et al. "Relationship between the Experience of Being a Bully/Victim and Mental Health in Preadolescence and Adolescence: A Cross-Sectional Study." Annals of General Psychiatry, vol. 16, Oct. 2017, pp. 1-10. EBSCOhost, doi:10.1186/s12991-017-0160-4. Abstract Background: Several studies have proven that the experiences of being bullied or bullying others are associated with poor mental health among adolescent youths. Our study aims to investigate the relationship between the experience of the bully/victim and mental health among preadolescents and adolescents. Methods: Subjects were the Japanese fifth and sixth grade elementary school students (preadolescents: mean age = 11.3 years; n = 338) and junior high school students (adolescents: mean age = 13.8 years; n = 486). A self-report questionnaire was administered containing items concerning the experience of being a bully/victim and the Youth Self Report (YSR). Results: Four groups relating to the experience of being a bully/victim were formed: "Victim Only," "Bully Only" "Victim and Bully" and "Neither" Approximately 65% of preadolescents and approximately 25% of adolescents engaged in bullying behaviors. Of these, the rate of participants in the "Bully Only" group was low, and that in the "Victim and Bully" group was high. Regarding the relationship between the experience of being a bully/victim and mental health, both preadolescents and adolescents of the "Victim Only" group had significantly higher scores on the YSR's internalizing problems compared with the "Neither" group. Moreover, both preadolescents and adolescents of the "Bully Only" group had significantly higher scores on the YSR's externalizing problems compared with the "Neither" group. Regarding the relationship between the experience of being a bully/victim and suicidal ideation for both preadolescent and adolescent girls, the relative risks of suicidal ideation were significantly higher in the "Victim and Bully" group than in the "Neither" group. Conclusions: Preadolescents indicated a higher rate of bullying behaviors than adolescents. In both preadolescents and adolescents, different effect patterns on mental health were found for the "Victim Only," "Bully Only," and "Victim and Bully" groups. The prevention and intervention methods for mental health should be tailored according to the type of experience associated with being a bully/victim and according to the developmental stages of preadolescence or adolescence.

No, the source would not be relevant

The following are true:

Our goals for reading will affect the way we read a text. The more prior knowledge we have, the better prepared we are to make meaning of a text. Reading is an active, constructive, meaning-making process.

Order of importance

Persuade or convince Rank items by their importance, benefit, or significance

Revision requires being objective when analyzing a draft. Note that it is much easier to offer suggestions for others' writing than one's own. What types of behaviors can help a student be more objective—and act more like a "second reader" than the primary author?

Print the draft so that it is easier to read—and so that there is space (in the margins) for notes. Leave the draft for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., a few hours or a day) before beginning the revision and editing process. Analyze whether the essay accomplished its goal, namely persuading the readers to believe the thesis. Analyze the effectiveness of topic sentences—and whether they are claims that engage the thesis. And, revise any topic sentences that are only provide a summary of a text. Analyze whether all of the examples that appear in the essay distinctly contribute to proving the thesis and are not arbitrarily included (perhaps because the examples are interesting).

Which of the following demonstrates critical thinking during your writing process?

Qualifying your working thesis in light of your research findings Explaining how the information you're presenting supports your thesis Keeping an open mind to information that contradicts your beliefs

According to Steven Lessner and Collin Craig, which of the following statements about reading rhetorically and analytically are true? Mark all that apply.

Reading analytically can make you more purposeful in your own writing. Reading rhetorically can help you better understand how to elicit certain responses from your audience through your writing. Asking yourself questions about the rhetorical strategies (ethos, pathos, logos) an author is using can help you discover how you can use these tools yourself.

Critical freewriting

Select which statements are true about revision. Select all that apply.

Revision may require that certain portions of the essay be rewritten to showcase what the student learned during the course of writing the essay. After all, sometimes, when substantiating an argument with support and logic, a writer's ideas may slightly (or significantly) change. While students may revise as they write the draft, the essay must be considered—as a whole—once the writing process has ended. Then, the distinct processes of revision and editing must begin.

Which of the following questions can help you reflect on how an article or source will fit into your synthesis essay?

How has my thinking changed based on my research? What have I learned? Was my working thesis on target? Do I need to rework my thesis based on what I have learned? How does the information in my sources mesh with my research questions and help me answer those questions? Have any additional questions or subtopics come up that I will need to address? How do my sources complement each other? What ideas or facts recur in multiple sources? Where do my sources disagree with each other, and why?

The following questions can be used to evaluate a potential source

Is the type of source appropriate for my purpose? Is it a high-quality source or one that needs to be looked at more critically? Can I establish that the author is credible and the publication is reputable? Does the author support ideas with specific facts and details that are carefully documented? Is the source of the author's information clear? Does the source include any factual errors or instances of faulty logic? Does the author leave out any information that I would expect to see in a discussion of this topic? Do the author's conclusions logically follow from the evidence that is presented? Can I see how the author got from one point to another? Is the writing clear and organized, and is it free from errors, cliches, and empty buzzwords? Is the tone objective, balanced, and reasonable? Are there any obvious biases or agendas? Based on what I know about the author, are there likely to be any hidden agendas? Are graphics informative, useful, and easy to understand? Are websites organized, easy to navigate, and free of clutter like flashing ads and unnecessary sound effects? Is the source contradicted by information found in other sources? If so, is it possible that your sources are presenting similar information but taking different perspectives, which requires you to think carefully about which sources you find more convincing and why?

Below, you will be provided with a block quote (which is a long quote that exceeds five typed lines); the quote is properly formatted, according to MLA guidelines—and it is properly introduced. After reading the direct quote, you will select the most effectively introduced, cited, and engaged quote. In The Soul of Money, Lynn Twist argues that we can combat our culturally pervasive view of scarcity: We each have the choice in any setting to step back and let go of the mindset of scarcity. Once we let go of scarcity, we discover the surprising truth of sufficiency. By sufficiency, I don't mean a quantity of anything. Sufficiency isn't two steps up from poverty or one step short of abundance. It isn't a measure of barely enough or more than enough. Sufficiency isn't an amount at all. It is an experience, a context we generate, a declaration, a knowing that there is enough, and that we are enough. Sufficiency resides inside of each of us, and we can call it forward. It is a consciousness, an attention, an intentional choosing of the way we think about our circumstances. (Twist 75)

Lynn Twist argues, "sufficiency [...] is an experience, a context that we generate" (75). Twist's idea that we can create our own reality, not of scarcity, but of plentitude is empowering—especially for those who may be contrasting their seemingly meager situations with friends on Facebook who seem to be wealthier.

Abstract Although children in foster care are disproportionately affected by trauma, few child welfare agencies fully integrate trauma knowledge into their practices or have trauma-specific interventions available for children who could benefit from them, either internally or through partnerships with mental health providers. The Atlas Project has built on foster care-mental health partnerships to integrate trauma-informed practices into New York City Treatment Family Foster Care programs. This paper provides detail on the elements of the Atlas Project model, their implementation, and implications for traumainformed child welfare practice.
