Ann Simmons

Amber M. Simmons a Georgia teacher and graduate student wrote a thrilling article on using popular fiction like the Hunger Games to insight social change and justice in the class room. She made many good points on how to introduce and facilitate this kind of discussion in a classroom especially since many “students are desensitized to violence, and one goal of educators is to resensitize them so that they understand the reality of brutality and injustice” (23).

Some historical, figures are remembered for their actions, for example Napoleon, while others are remembered for their for their intent for example Charles de Gaulle. Every historic figure remembers differently depending on what they did, however it does not matter if the person had a massive impact or if they only made a dent in the end they are all equal because they have accomplished or almost accomplished something that could not be forgotten. Amelia Simmons became an important historic figure, especially in culinary history, because she wrote American Cookery, the real reason behind her writing American Cookery and how American cookery was one of the first stepping stones for creating a diverse world.

Finally, Simmons discusses what she names “I know what you are thinking” stories, in which the storyteller attempts to name the audience’s objections as a way of disarming any potential resistance to influence (23-26). Leslie tells the children at the beginning and the end of the Project Heart film that she teaches history from multiple perspectives because she loves Canada. “I tell

While she is up there speaking through her very soul, you can automatically feel a deep connection to her and her writing. No matter what struggles you go through in life, putting yourself into the mind of someone else who might just be dealing with the same exact problems, can help a person more than anyone could think. Even though it was a question and answer with a presentation, it felt like so much more; without even reading an excerpt from one of her books, you can still hear the very same unique tone and emotional depth speak through her very words. After I left the panel, reading her books became so much more of an emotional and heartfelt ride.

I was surprised by somethings that she said. She started talking about low level ordinances in Minnesota. She talked about how up until 2015, it was illegal to spit on the sidewalk and to lurk. This caused a lot of people, primarily people of

Audience member Kat Callo, a Fletcher MA student, said all of the speeches moved her to

I've seen movies about her, but listening to her speak really touched me. She is a wonderful

Her speech appealed to pathos, ethos, and logos, therefore, creating humor, establishing credibility, and providing facts and testimonies. With all this in mind, she was able to communicate effectively to the graduates and their family members. Amy

She did a good job at describing all the characters, and what role they played in her life. The way the events were described obviously in a sequenced matter made one

There so many ways to analyze a speech. Kelly McGonigal’s “How to Make Stress Your Friend” verbal and nonverbal communication created a connection while ensnaring the attention of the audience. Altogether, her speech was as nicely presented as she

The way she talked about her story attracts the listeners. I really liked it on the part when she slept with Rachel several times and got her pregnant. The beginning of her story was a bit sad because she was unsure about what’s happening to her and what could she do. She came up with her coping mechanism like soccer, work and other stuff that she can do. The first part of her story, where

Edwards also made her speech unique and memorable by adding her own style to her speech. She made the audience believe they were enough or start to believe they are enough if they did not before. Shantae Edwards started her speech off with an attention grabber. She stated a fact, which was “I am the creator and founder of #IAMDOPE.

Amy Duarte was very inspiring in a very honest and understanding way. She seemed to want every single one of the audience members to succeed in Hollywood, even if that wasn’t everyone’s aspiration. I believe that she had something to say that everyone wanted to hear, and when someone has something honest and important to say I find myself listening so in depth that I forget my chosen major and start wondering what kind of animator I would be in LA. Amy Duarte’s had one quote that was very inspiring to me, she said that “luck rewards those who are prepared” and although I have no plans to become an animation specialist I believe that this can be applied to all aspects of life including my major, Architecture. I truly believe that this quote and her advice on how to get noticed and take risks will have a lasting impact in my life and my career in the future.

I am writing to apply for a research team member position in the laboratory of Ann Harris, PhD. As a pharmacist planning to apply for PhD in Northwestern University in Human Molecular Genetics I would like to join PhD Ann Harris's laboratory to share and recruit my experience, and to learn more about the field that I am planning to do my PhD in.

I have deduced from my research that Ann Richards’ work is a double faced weave and that silk; stainless steel and linen were used to make the neckpiece. The threads used in Richards neckpiece is a hybrid between the metal been woven within the thread itself. This would give it the durability that Richards want but would also give the piece some unique qualities which separately these pieces couldn’t do alone ‘Ideal for jewellery that is flexible, lightweight and comfortable to wear’ (Contemporary Applied Arts, 2015). This goes back to the idea of making the piece free to move with the body.
