Module 1 Discussion


Instructions:

The Tallahassee City Commission unanimously approved a resolution establishing a goal of powering municipal operations entirely with renewable sources (like wind and solar) by 2035, and community-wide by 2050 (link).

Based on what you have learned so far from this class, discuss the following:

What advantages and disadvantages are there to going to 100% renewable energy?
Assume Miami were to also go 100% renewable energy and you were in charge of the transition. Give a specific plan on how you would phase in the renewable energy and phase out the non-renewable energy and in what time frame.

Write a short essay or paragraph of at least 300 words (worth 80/100 points).
Use concrete examples/details and avoid generalities.
Address all questions.
Use proper grammar and punctuation.

Each research paper must be 3 to 5 pages (double space only.......you WILL be downgraded for a page count over five pages.....follow my instructions), excluding the bibliography and endnotes. Remember, approximately 250 TO 300 words is usually one page. Font size MUST not exceed 12 point, no excessive margins - I will strongly enforce this rule! There is NO cover page; the first page must include your name in the upper left corner, nothing more! Your bibliography is not included in the page count. Again, this is a research paper. You may also include digital references, periodicals, articles, etc. All specifics must have in text citations.  Credible research must include substantiation! Substantiation is critical. 
"IF YOU DIDN'T WRITE IT....CITE IT".....all dates, quotes, statistical and financial data as well as historic specifics and obscurities must be properly sourced or cited in your research, otherwise it is simply not credible information.  This applies to bo

-Summarize behavioral and psychological factors associated with disengaging from terrorism and describe what efforts or programs are most effective in countering radicalization and why.

Please answer any 2 of the following questions:



1. Please discuss whether your findings on the YouTube videos and ads support or detract from arguments made in the Chapter 7 text section 'Imitation of Violence'.

2. *For the social comparison on social media article, compare rumination to self reflection, discuss which is better for identity formation and why?

3. We all have implicit biases. As you learned about implicit bias, what areas of life do you think you may need to be more aware of your thoughts? What are ways to mitigate these thought and ideas?

4. Think about all the readings about how our life, beliefs, behavior and values are socially constructed.  You may want to refer back to module 4 and my review of the ISL readings thus far.  How does social media construct our social life and social being? Use examples from the unit and from life.
