Use the link above to watch the video.  This video discusses three INCORRECT laws of physics, followed by three incorrect statements.  There is a short clip of a man on a skate board with a fire extinguisher followed by another incorrect statement.  The last clip is of a class with students attempting to break eggs by throwing them at a wall of bedsheet with another incorrect statement.

The statements in the video (and listed below) are all misconceptions.  Pick one statement.   Indicate which statement you have chosen.  Explain why it is wrong and what the correct scientific explanation is for the scenario. Then give a different real-world example that illustrates the same concept.  Be sure to use your real-world example to explain the science again.   

1. When you push a full grocery cart at a steady speed down an aisle in the grocery store you need to push with significantly more force than when you push the same cart when empty (assume the forces of friction (air, tire, etc.) are essentially the same for both the full and empty cart.
2. When you are driving a car at a constant speed and then press on the gas pedal (increase the force due to the engine), the car will speed up to a new higher constant speed (assume all the forces of friction (air, tire, etc.) remain essentially the same)
3. When a game of tug of war is played on a very smooth wooden floor between 10 strong dads in socks and their 10 small 5-year-old children in sneakers, the children can never win because the men will be able to pull so much harder on the rope than their children.
4. When the man uses the fire extinguisher, the gas from the extinguisher pushes against the wall causing the man on the skateboard to get pushed backwards.
5. When the egg hits the sheet it doesn’t break because the students are unable to through the egg with enough force to cause it to break

For this discussion you must post one main discussion post and reply to one other student’s post. 

Your main post must include:

1.  State which of the 5 statements you are going to discuss. (5 points)

2.  Explain why the statement is wrong, including insights as to why we might think this way.  Then include the correct statement and apply it to the example to explain what is shown and why it happens using the correct science.    (15 points)

3.  Think of something you experience in your daily life that is related to one of these examples.  Share this with your fellow students, be sure to explain the science of your example and how it is related to these misconceptions.   (10 points).   Try to pick an experience that you feel other students can relate to as well.

In addition to your main post, you must provide a substantive reply post to another student’s post.  Be respectful, but if the student’s explanation is missing anything, add what you think is missing, or if there are errors, suggest the correct explanation.  Include a comment on how you might relate to the experience you share.  Consider adding something to this experience that takes the discussion farther or in a new direction… For example, if a student uses a seat belt example, you might add a new, but different seat belt example, or a situation that might be different but still relates to that example such as an experience in an accident (or a near accident)….

Think of it this way… if you were in a group setting how would you add something to a conversation on this topic and keep the conversation going.  It must be something more than “I can relate to your experience”… or “I had the same experience”. These examples aren’t substantive.  But stating  something to the effect that “I had a similar experience but I experienced the following thing (with your details that are related, but different) ” does.  

All posts must be posted by Midnight Sunday of the week the post is due;  late posts will not be accepted.  Your main post is worth 30 points Your reply post is worth 10 points

Your post will be graded on both content and grammar.

Using the information provided in Progress Note above, please complete the following information.

In this Assignment 2, imagine you are a medical professional working at XYZ Medical Center. Your patient is Mrs. Williams. Her son, Sam Williams, has just arrived from Montana. He is concerned about his mother’s wellbeing. You will be meeting with the patient’s son to update him on what has occurred during her hospital stay, the subsequent transfer to the rehabilitation facility and a discharge plan.

Use the information from the Progress Note to update Sam Williams on his mother’s condition. You will be translating the medical information from the report into layman’s terms in order for the patient and patient’s son to understand.

Please be sure use complete sentences, proper grammar, and spelling. You can use medical terms, however, you must also use layman’s terminology. Remember, it is your job to explain to the patient’s son what has occurred. You must use outside sources, including your textbook.

Your explanation to Sam Williams should be 500 words or more. Cite your reference/references  in APA format at the end of your explanation.

Written Assignment requirements: Written work should be free of spelling, grammar, and APA errors. Points deducted from the grade for each writing, spelling, or grammar error are at your instructor’s discretion. Please be sure to view “Writing Center Resources” to assist you with meeting APA expectations. You may also access the link from Course Resources/Academic  Support Center.

In this discussion board, you will begin writing your argument essay due at the end of Unit 7 by submitting the introduction to your essay. The introduction is the opening of your essay. You want to hook the reader from the first paragraph of your essay. In order to do that, you will need to pay attention to the first sentence you use in your essay. You want to engage the readers with that sentence. Your next sentences will briefly explain your essay topics. Finally, end the introduction with a thesis statement that reveals your argument as well as your topics.

Here is a sample introduction on cyberbullying in high school to give you an idea of how an introduction should be organized:

Cyberbullying through online platforms, such as Twitter, has become a growing problem that needs to be strongly addressed in public high schools around the country. Why, one might ask, is cyberbullying such an important issue? Cyberbullying is the act of bullying someone online. Often, that bullying may include sending messages that harass and intimidate another person through a medium that can mask the person’s identity. This type of behavior is not acceptable anywhere, but particularly within the school system because it promotes a negative educational culture and also can be harmful to the person being bullied. High schools need to implement specific programs surrounding the topic of cyberbullying that provide education on the subject, intervention for those being bullied or doing the bullying, and severe consequences for acts of cyberbullying.

Review these instructions for the upcoming argument essay.
Overview:

Over the course of the last few units, you have been working on crafting the argument for your Argument Essay. You will now write an argument essay that answers one of these questions.

The essay should answer ONE of these questions:

1. Should there be a standard American minimum wage in all states?

2. Should screen time be limited for children?

3. Should American citizens be required to serve on a jury?

Each of the above questions relate to one of the issues you have already written about in the Unit 4 Assignment: Pro and Con of an Issue. Now, choose one side of the issue to develop into an argument essay.

You should answer ONE of the above questions in a well-thought out and developed argument essay with:

• A clear introduction that sets up the issue, explains your topics, and ends with your thesis statement.

• Body paragraphs focusing on one topic in support of your argument in each paragraph.

o You need three reliable and academic sources for this assignment in support of your argument. You should include evidence that is directly quoted, paraphrased, or summarized to support each topic. The evidence should have appropriate in- text citations.

o You will typically want to include one piece of evidence in the body of each paragraph, as you did in the paragraph and pro/con assignment. You are not required to include a source about the counterargument (other side of your argument), but you may if you would like.

• Then, end with a conclusion that wraps up your essay’s argument and leaves the reader with something to consider about your issue.

• Include a references page for the three sources you used in your essay.

You can use the ideas from your Pro/Con paragraphs in your argument essay, but they should be revised and reworded so that you are not just resubmitting your Unit 4 assignment.

Argument Essay and Third Person, Objective Writing

We have probably all had to argue for a position we held. What makes someone receptive to your argument? Normally, the audience is more willing to listen to your position if you argue for it objectively and avoid unreasonable, argumentative tactics. Your argument needs to be logical and fair, giving people the ability to disagree with you.

Your argument also should be written in the third person to show that you can be objective, meaning you use “He,” “she,” “they,” “people,” “one” and do not use “I,” “me,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “you,” and “your.”

Instructions:

• Create an argument essay that answers ONE of the above questions.

• You should have a well-articulated argument essay with an introduction, body

paragraphs (with evidence), conclusion, and a references page.

Requirements:

• Please submit a Microsoft Word document or PDF.

• The essay should be three to four pages in length with an additional APA-style title and reference pages. The document should follow proper APA style formatting (Times New Roman, 12 font suggested) with 1-inch margins and double spaced.

• Include three (3) sources in your essay that are reliable and academic.

o Make sure you have at least three (3) in-text citations where you have directly quoted, paraphrased, or summarized material from the sources. You will need corresponding references for each of these sources that match the in-text citations.

• You need an introduction and conclusion for this essay. Remember the introduction sets up the essay and ends with the thesis statement. The conclusion sums up the essay and restates the thesis in a different way. The introduction and conclusion should not be exact replicas of each other.

• Your body paragraphs should each focus on one topic that supports your argument.

• Your writing should be free of punctuation, spelling, and grammar errors and contain appropriate word choice for an academic setting with clear sentence structure.

Be sure to read the criteria by which your work will be evaluated before you write and again after you write.
