When writing at the college level there are expectations for a student according to their Degree and Course number. In this class Eng147 falls under the Undergraduate degree with course numbers between 100-299. The expectations for the style are of a title page which is to contain paper title, student name, course, due date, and faculty name. The next style expectation is the format. A paper must be double-spaced, 12-point font size, 1” margins on the top, bottom, left and right, and should be in Times New Roman, Arial, or Courier font. The format may contain errors. The next style would be the heading. It must use one heading level. Then there is in-text citations. Paraphrased, quoted, or summarized source material, is documented with in-text citations. Then last style expectation is a reference page. This page should include all sources cited within the text. A reference page is to be on the top of a new page and located after the body of the paper.
When writing I would use the Center for Writing Excellence and the University Library. The Center for Writing Excellence is a great place to get your paper checked for Plagiarism, get live assistance and step-by-step grammar review. This is an excellent place to get help and to also go to when needing to be refreshed on some rules by reading the guides that are provided. The University library is also a great place to visit. It provides you with information that can be used for your papers.

    A company's debts or obligations are owed within one year. Current liabilities appear on the company's balance sheet and include short-term debt, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other debts. Current liabilities are separated from long-term liabilities on classified balance sheets. (You do not have to prepare a classified balance sheet, but it is the norm. Classified balance sheets also separate the current assets from the long-term assets). Knowing which liabilities will have to be paid within one year is important to lenders, financial analysts, owners, and executives of the company. (Current assets include cash and other assets that will turn to cash within one year.) Knowing the liabilities that are due within one year and the amount of assets turning to cash within one year are so important that it makes sense to prepare a classified balance sheet. The amount of current liabilities is used in two of the most common financial ratios. Working capital is the amount of current assets minus the amount of current liabilities. The current ratio is calculated by dividing the amount of current assets by the amount of current liabilities.…

    CNMT 410 was an interesting class to learn about the professional workplace. The discussions on time stealing interested me the most since I had no idea what some employers consider stealing time. Besides the discussions I learned a lot about producing quality work. Before this class my resume and cover letter would’ve been a joke. Most likely I would’ve taken a generic resume from Google. The resume wouldn’t have been very personal or showcase my experience. There would have been the exact same problem with the cover letter. I had no idea before this class that the cover letter was meant to be a personal letter from myself to the hiring manager. I always thought cover letters were more or less optional and just a generic short essay on who I was as a person. The quality of my work increased tenfold just from…

    > All societies are based on beliefs, the strongest of which are religious in one form or another. Even the American Indians could be described as religious in their beliefs of rain dances and war songs of the past. Most cultures are deeply rooted in the past; it is the history of all life that makes people who they are. Plainchant serves as the music of Catholicism, Baptist hymns, Buddhist temple chants, Eastern Indian monophonic music, even New Orleans death march all serve as sacred music to the people that perform them. In whatever form, it is not just the sacred chants that prevail but also the stories that they tell and the message that they send.…

    As a resource, Ms. Pancake had proposed to micro manage my efforts to ensure the conceptual understanding of my responsibilities and I agreed. We had arranged to do so on Wednesday, December 7 as it would be less strenuous on her time schedule. This was to give her the opportunity to complete her required closing processes, while demonstrating to them that I was competent with my allotted tasks by completing them in the time requested. She and Mr. Rackers had accepted my proposal. As the day came, she was resolving an issue from the previous accounting week, and was speaking with Mr. Whittaker about invoicing. After speaking with him, she had walked back to office, but stopped by my cubicle to check my progress. The conversation went…

    For week four I enjoyed a couple different aspects that were some what challenging. The Learning team assignment was about wireless technology and that particular area I am very familiar with. The two topics were smartphones and wireless routers. I have been using that technology for the past 10 years in a professional capacity and intimately know the benefits and risks associated with them. However something that I enjoyed and learned was about the six stages of the systems development life cycle. It was very interesting to learn how technology is brought to life from conception to practical use. It is important to know these stages that technology goes through so that we can appreciate what we have and can use it to correlate to any system not just a technological advance but an invention of any kind and the stages that you need to take to successfully get your idea launched into practical use or the marketplace. I am very familiar with PowerPoint and have exclusively used it for any of my presentations. However I was not aware of all the presentation tool available in the marketplace. If I ever made it to an executive level I would probably consider trying one of them but for my particular position PowerPoint is going to be my go to presentation tool. To conclude week 4 was fun and educational. I do not see immediate use for what I learned in week 4 but possible down the road in my career. My personal life will not implement any portion of anything I learned in week 4 because I cannot see a place for it.…

    Quality writing is considered a very important aspect of an academic setting, particularly when completing a graduate program. It is necessary to develop writing skills beyond the basic elements of writing that are considered acceptable in an undergraduate program. There are many aspects of writing that have the potential for development. Aside from the quality of writing regarding content and mechanics, it is also important to understand the elements of effective communication. Appropriate use of vocabulary, proper organization of information, and the tone in which the information is presented to the audience are very important aspect of effective written communication.

    ENGL 202 was a tremendous experience for my second quarter at Humphrey's University. I feel that I have benefited from the knowledge gained from the course and learned vastly to working and analyzing not only my own writings but also with other writings. In the beginning of this course, we have learned how to specifically understand how a well-versed paper can be defined and what it is not. The first essay that we analyzed was based off a concerned parent to beauty pageants for children under 10 years of age. We first analyzed her topic and learned that while it is a concerning issue, her essay was no more than a simple rant that lacks research and specific data that would be relevant to her essay. From there we analyzed other topics that, while they were well-researched topics, they had specific “holes” in them that affected their credibility, such as a lack of authority towards the author or missing valuable research. One in particular was to an author that relied on emotion for being against the death penalty. These helped us to analyze essays better and to learn what not to do in a research assignment. This next element of…

    Paper/Page Layout All papers should be clearly written and word-processed using plain white 8.5” x 11” paper size with 1” margins on all sides. Avoid the use of frilly font types that are hard to read - Times Roman or Arial are preferred. Font size should be uniform through out and be in the range 10-12pt. Larger fonts may be used on the title page (see example). Text should generally be double spaced; however, single spacing may be used for: figure and table entries and captions, and reference, computer code or data listings. Pages should be numbered consecutively starting after the title page. General Content - Title Page (indicating title, student name, paper purpose, course number and name, professor name, date – see example on page 4) - Table of Contents - Introduction (provide background, literature review, paper purpose and contents, etc.) - Various Internal Sections (logically divided and ordered to present the study) - Summary and Conclusions - List of References (either numbered in order of appearance in text or alphabetical order by last name; see referencing section) - Appendix (optional for additional material that is of minor importance; e.g. data, computer code or parts listings, extra figures and/or tables, etc. ) Figures and Tables can either be embedded in the text immediately after they are first referenced or placed together at the paper’s end after the references. Figures All figures should be clearly readable and scaled properly to match the font size used in the text. Electronic copying or custom generation (Word Graphics, MATLAB, Excel, etc.) should allow easy manipulation of figures to accomplish proper location and sizing. Figures must include a caption (usually placed below the graphic) that contains the figure number followed by a brief description of what is shown. All figures must be explicitly discussed in the text by referencing the appropriate figure number. For papers of…
