Assignment
Write a persuasive essay that urges readers to accept your viewpoint on an issue and to take action
on that issue. Refer to pages 1256-1263 in your text for further instructions and resources to help
prepare your essay. The essay should use at least one credible source to support your persuasive
stance. APA formatted in-text citation(s) and a reference page are required for the source(s) too.
Please save the essay as a Word (.doc) document and submit it as an attachment. The essay
should be a minimum of 3 paragraphs in length: introduction, body, and conclusion. Include a clear
thesis statement that is developed throughout your essay.
Introduction (a full paragraph)
Engage your audience with a hook
Include a preview of the main points
Place the thesis statement as your last sentence
Body (each section in full paragraph form)
Balance the general with the specific. Every time you make a claim, follow it up with an example or
illustration, an explanation of the specific elements within that claim, or a concrete point of evidence
that supports that claim.
Conclusion (a full paragraph)
Summarize your main points
End memorably with a thought that will continue to echo in the audience’s mind long after reading the
essay.

Pick a culture that you have, in some way, been a part of, that you think could stand a change. This could be a workplace culture, living

environment, political environment, religious place, school, etc. 1) Describe the culture. 2) Describe what you think needs changing. 3)

Describe how you would go about altering it for the better. Please copy/paste or retype the three components of this question and answer

each below.

 

For the persuasive essay, we will work on the skill of advocacy, which means you will develop an essay that works to persuade readers to see your point of view about a particular topic. As a nurse, or future nurse, advocacy is an essential skill, as it allows you to make a positive impact
Create a topic sentence for each of the sections in your outline. Remember, a topic sentence both defines the topic of the paragraph and indicates a main point about that topic. Usually, a topic sentence is the first sentence of a paragraph.
Then, write a paragraph to support each topic sentence. Using detail from the prewriting, each paragraph should explain and expand on its purpose, as indicated in the topic sentence. Make sure that you only focus on that single main idea – if you find that the paragraph is losing focus on the purpose indicated in the topic sentence, go back and revise. Paragraphs should be unified around only one single point. These paragraphs will make up the body paragraphs of your essay.
After you have drafted the body paragraphs, think about your introduction. Your introduction should provide the background context necessary for your reader to understand the rest of the essay.
Now, revisit your working thesis statement. Remember that a thesis statement serves as the topic sentence for the whole essay, indicating not only the essay’s topic, but also the meaning of the narrative. Reconsider the working thesis statement that you already developed. Does it still work, now that you’ve written the essay? Or do you need to modify it? After you’ve revised your thesis, place the sentence in the introductory paragraph, as the last sentence.
Write a conclusion that sums up the essay. Conclusions can sometimes be mirror images of the introduction, containing the same basic ideas, but restating them in a slightly different way. In this case, it might be appropriate to elaborate on the meaning of the essay. That is, you wrote your essay to prove a particular thesis statement, so use your conclusion to revisit that point and develop it specifically.
Finally, add a title that indicates the main idea of the essay, without restating your thesis statement

EMTM Assignment details

You are a consultant whose company has been appointed to advise a government body on one of two developments:

A) A new in-town hotel development with a capacity for 100 bedrooms, including conference facilities, retail outlets and car parking.

B) Aground-mounted solar energy facility with a capacity of 10MW generated via 30,000 solar modules, to produce enough green electricity for

over 2,500 homes.

The government body requires advice on how the environmental impacts of the construction and operation of the above developments can best be

identified, assessed and managed. Write a report which critically discusses the application of three of the tools covered on the short course to

development AorB. The tools are EIA, LCA, ERA, Environmental Review, Carbon Footprinting.

You should clearly state which development you are advising on, then draw on evidence from peer reviewed and practitioner literature in discussing

the selected tools, clearly noting the benefits and drawbacks of each one. Your report should highlight any similarities or links between the tools

(e.g. if one might provide data that could be used by another tool) and it should lead the reader to clear conclusions regarding the suitability of

the tools to managing the environmental impacts of the particular development chosen. It does not matter whether the tools selected are those the

local authority would use directly or those that it could require or request the developer to use. Your report will not be judged on whether the

tools are the most suitable to the chosen development but you should show a critical appreciation of the tools and their application (e.g. their

benefits and limitations, integrating the perspectives of a range of authors).

For your chosen example, you could use the following sources to provide you with simple background information about the nature of such a

development and its possible impacts, before you start undertaking research into the tools. Note that the main focus of your research should be the

application of the tools / methods:

A) The proposed Bircherley Green development in Hertford contains a similar scheme:http://www.bircherleygreenregeneration.com
B) The recently-opened Clayhill solar farm near Milton Keynes is of a similar size: http://anesco.co.uk/clayhill-uks-first-subsidy-free-solar-

farm/

A report should start with an executive summary of no more than 300 words which gives a senior manager the key information from the document. The

main body of the report should be set out using logical, numbered sections but it is not necessary for every paragraph to have a separate number.

For this report no more than one sub-level of numbering is needed (e.g. 1.1, 1.2). You are encouraged to use figures and tables to support the text.

The Learning Resource Centres stock many books and e-books which will be useful for this assignment. You should look at the sections within this

booklet and on the StudyNet site for useful references for individual tools / methods. In addition, the following journals are good sources of

peer-reviewed papers:

Impact Assessment and Project Appraisal

Assignment word length: 2,500 words
Assignment hand-in date: 22/02/18

Executive Summary Guide
There will be six (6) Executive Summary Essay assignments submitted
during the duration of the course. They are called summaries as they
are limited in the total number of words utilized in developing the
information for each assignment. That is, you have to choose your
words succinctly to develop your responses with supporting
information from the chapters.
Using the concepts, theories and definitions from the chapters
and the power point lectures, you are to support your
observations, analysis and recommendations within your
Executive Summary, with the following guidance given:
Please, do not write from a “first or second person” perspective. This
means do not use “I” or “we’. Use a “third” person point of view. You
do not need to footnote or other wise reference the chapters. The
focus (and space for your responses) should be directed at answering
the assignment given for each chapter.
One example of this position would be: Picture yourself in the movie
theatre and as you are watching the movie, you are describing the
various scenes to another person. In essence, you are telling a story
in your executive summary essay in providing your recommendations.
When complete, submit your Executive Summary Essay to the
Assignment Area (dropbox).
