Week 16:Ethos, Pathos, Logos

Section A: Link to my website!

https://tudaniela.wixsite.com/rws1302

Section B: As a writer!

 Ethos:

Homepage: I will also talk about my experience in this course by being completely honest to create more credibility. When talking about me, I will explain that I am a student from the University of Texas at El Paso and clearly state the purpose of the website.

Reflections: For this section, I will strive to have no grammatical/punctuation errors when writing the reflection for each assignment.

Logos:

Homepage: The content and structure of the homepage will represent the logo appeal. I will make sure all of my writing is clear and understandable.

Reflections: For this section, I will use graphics as examples/reflections of my writing to show how my assignment looked.

Pathos: 

Homepage: I will talk about me some of my interests and expectations for the class. I will talk about what that I enjoyed about the class assignments and some of the times that I struggled with the material. 

Reflections: Since reflections are talking about my feelings towards the class and assignments, I will use emotional language when writing them. I will implement the emotions I felt throughout the class: proud, joyful, overwhelmed, confused, etc.

Section C: As a designer!

Ethos: 

I will set ethos by adding some of my contact information, social media, and a picture of myself. I am also, thinking about adding some screenshots, or quotes from the RWS e-book to have more credibility. 

Logos: 

 I will also make sure that my website is easy to navigate and proportional by creating several tabs and divisions to separate each section. I will focus on the structure of my website to make It look organized.

Pathos:  

To appeal by emotion, I will use a professional style to design my website. I will include visuals both academic and personal to make it more personalized and to help the audience know me a little better. Of course, I will use emotional language when writing each section.

Goodbye everyone! Thank you for all your feedback, good luck in all your finals!

Creating a Plan of Action

A. Based on my schedule and what we have completed on my project, I will commit my work time to Thursdays and Fridays. But also this time will vary if I need to do more extensive work.

B. We will be meeting up as a group Wednesday after class and Thursdays from 10:30-2:50. As a group we might not take up that whole time but it depends on how much work we have and are able to complete on Wednesday.

C. Hopefully during our visits this week we will complete the poster. So by next Wednesday we can have our presentation done and begin practicing.

D. We all have the responsibility to bring the perspective from our Literature Reviews. The rest of the group members focused more diversity of the medical field. While my perspective was more on the results of not having a diverse field on the accessibility to healthcare. Which is why being able to connect all of our data we can finish both our poster and presentation in a timely manner.

E. The end of the semester is coming fast and with comes finals, term papers and such. Everybody is ready for it to be over and we just want to sleep. That is why I am concerned about time and scheduling but all will be well.

F. All my group members are obviously very passionate about their topic, so we are not lacking information or energy. I am sure we can work efficiently and be able to do a great job with our project.

[pepeju720-blog]

I think we are going to be able to finish tomorrow so we can focus on our presentation and then start practicing. Tomorrow we have to put all of our ideas in order so we can put them in the poster. I think right now we are good with what we have done.

[pepeju720-blog]

Week 14 - Group Project Timeline

a) For the project I am commited to work Tuesday and Thursday from 10:20 to 3 and Friday any time of the day but I can meet any other day depending on the work that we have to do.

b) Our group will meet on Wednesday after class to work on the poster and on Thursday from 10:20 to 2:50. We may finish early on Thursday depending on how much work we do on Wednesday.

c) We hope to finish the poster on Wednesday so we can start working on our presentation and start practicing what each of us is going to say.

d) Each of us have to bring something of our literature review to the project. Im going to bring to the project information that i got for my literature review about the diversity in the health care.

e) My main concerns was about not being able to get together and work in the project as a group but at the end we were able to find the times and days to work and finish the project on time.

f) I feel very comfortable with the project, with my team, and the organization to make group together in the time that we have.

Analyzing a Research Poster

Section A: Analyzing a Research Poster

1. Conflict Minerals: Should Businesses Avoid or Develop?

2. Similarities in this poster and ours  is the basic requirements and format. For example research objective(thesis), introduction, and results are found in this poster. Another similarities are the usage of visual aids, and their purpose. In which both papers aim to not only inform but also persuade. Difference in the poster would be the methods section.

3. The purpose of this poster is to inform the audience in the issues of mining minerals. Their purpose is clear in what they want to accomplish in informing. They want to being attention to how mining for diamonds, coal, and etc, is far more damaging than beneficial. But the format was distracting and it took away for their purpose.

4. Who is the intended audience for the poster? How do you know? Does it effectively appeal to the intended audience? Why or why not? The intended audience is the businesses that profit from the mining market, but also the leaders that regulate it. The visual aids were able reinforce the appeal for the audience. The yellow graphic

5. How does this poster display Ethos? Is it effective? Why or why not? The credibility of the poster was not clear to me. I did not see any information quoted or properly citied. So I am not sure if ethos was properly displayed.

6. Pathos was displayed by the image circled in red. It is effective because it shows the two sides of the mining market. It makes a statement because of the intense contrast. Not only in the images but also the abstract where it mentions the harsh reality of mine workers in Republic of Congo.

7. Logos was shown not only throughout but by the usage of the image circled in yellow. That image is impactful because it helps to understand why the purpose poster is important. Because it shows that the need for that market does not justify the casualties of it.

Section B: Implications for your own research poster

1. This poster will definitely aid in figuring what visuals are appealing and effective. Also, to make sure that our sources are credible and easily identifiable. Importantly, being able to structure our message to purposeful and be accessible to multiple audiences. 

2. After analyzing this poster it became easier to understand what our poster is lacking. How we can display the results and effects lack of diversity in nursing in a logical manner.

[pepeju720-blog]

Very nice job doing your post. I liked very much how you address all the points from the guideline and you were very clear on comparing both your poster and and the sample that you chose.   

[pepeju720-blog]

week 13 analysis research poster

1. Assessing and Treating Speech Disorders in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

2. This poster is similar to the one that we are doing because it has some of the requirements that we have to put on our poster, for example, it has a title, the author, introduction, results, sources, and data graphs. This poster is only different to our because it includes a section called what is, methodology, and discussion.

3. The purpose of this poster is to inform about Autism and different ways of intervention for those with Autism. It compares data graphs of three different studies which are Explicitly Targeting Speech, Targeting Speech Through Language Contexts, and Help the Child Build an Awareness of Phonological Skills. By explaining what is autism and the treatments help the poster to be clear.

4.The intended audience for this poster are the parents that have child or any relatives that have Autism. This appeal effectively to that audience because of how they explain the threes studies and tell if they are effective or not.

5.This poster appeals to ethos by using sources from a governmental organization called the Center of Diseases Control and Prevention.

6. It appeals to Pathos by using statistics about how many child are affected with Autism.

7. It appeals to Logos by using the data graphs of the three different studies.

I will use this poster to give an idea of how to do the poster and how I should show all the information that I am going to use. Also to make sure on how to make it clear and visually appealing.

Week 12 - Literature Review Reflection

*that little Rosa de Guadalupe breeze you feel when you finally finish a long assignment*

What 

In therms of the topic itself, I learned a lot during the research process, not only how not having diversity can affect more than one community, but also what can be done to help further diversify the medical field. The research taught me how, sadly, women today still face issues with sexism and sexual assault, no matter what century we are in. Also, wanting more women in the medical field isn’t so much about being feminist but because of what is brought to the table. For instance, women think differently, in ways men do no, providing a different perspective. Women also have shown to provide better patient care than male doctors do! I feel that this assignment encouraged me to follow my dreams and go into the medical profession. 

Writing a literature review helped me understand readings (specially scholarly articles) and how to properly analyze their purpose. At first, I thought the assignment was going to be overwhelming, but breaking it down like professor Cisneros did made it about x100000 easier and i’m almost sure, not to toot my own horn but beep beep, that this is one of my best assignments EVER. 

(that’s me tooting my own horn)

Conducting the primary research was so nerve-recking, at first, for someone like me who gets anxiety with just thinking of interviewing someone, however, preparing the questions before hand and understanding them helped me feel more in control and not so shy!

So What

I feel that everything that I learned is vital for getting to where ever it is I want to be in a few years. During the interview, Dr. Karinn Chambers talked about her struggles, but how in the end it has payed off BIG TIME, and I want to be able to say that in a near future, even be in her position, it really motivated to keep forward with deciding to stay in medicine.

 Writing a Literature Review, let alone a 12 page paper, will surely help me when im in grad school, cause I mean, IT’S GRAD SCHOOL. Pursuing a career in medicine, im sure i will have to conduct many studies and have to write many papers about it, and this assignment has showed me if i take it step by step, i will write 100 pages in no time. I also learned to use ALL sources possible to help prove a point, and not take anything for granted because even 10 minutes in the writing center can be a huge help. 

Now What

Now that I am aware of the great impact women have in the medical field, I want to keep pushing myself until not only am i done with my profession, but I am helping other women get their dream job. I plan to use my newly learned communication skills whilst applying for grad school, internships, fellowships, and jobs because of the fact that i will now be able to tel them, “This is why i want to do it”. I also hope to be the next Dr. Grey, and have my own show, if thats not too much to ask for. 

 I also plan to use the set of skills professor Cisneros has taught us for other assignments because I feel they eased the assignment as a whole AND help me actually understand what I was writing about!

[pepeju720-blog]

Lol I loved you post from beginning to end. More than anything I liked how you used those references. I’m glad to read that you learned a lot for this assignment and you know how you are going to use it in the future and also, I am glad that your interview went well. I wish you the best of luck.

[pepeju720-blog]

That feeling after finishing a long assingment

This assignment helped me a lot to understand better the process of doing a literature review.

At first when Cisneros told us to choose a semester topic, I was not sure why we had to do that but as week pass by I started to understand that it was to have a point to start our research.

As week pass by I started to learn better how to research scholarly sources and how to do research questions that were unbiased.

Everything that we learned this eleven weeks its important in the biomedical science career because this is something that I am going to start doing a lot more if I plan to go to the medical school. After I graduate I know there would be a lot more assignments like this and to be honest I hate to do essays but I’m happy that I did this assignment because now I know how to do this and it would be a little easier in the future.

Now that I know that how Hispanics affect the medical field, I am more motivated to continue and get to the medical school after finishing the university. I hope in the future I am going to be able to improve everything that this assignment has teach me and would help me make a better paper.

Week 8: Interview Questions.

[sylvalerie]

W7: Primary Research

————————–

Section 1 My Major: Biology

Correlating College: College of Science

Correlating Department: Biological Sciences

Contact Info:

Advising Info:

————————–

My topic is a bit difficult regarding this assignment because I have to find physicians who went to medical school in separate parts of the United States.

————

Section 2

Scholar 1:

I immediately thought of this person when I found out we had to find some primary sources. I personally know Dr. Smith and she is very qualified to give me some personal experiences since she has been in a very prominent medical school.

Scholar 2:

Although I do not know him personally, he was recommended to me by the previous specialist I chose. I chose him because he is Hispanic and previously attended a very large and prestigious university that is also known to have issues on diversity.

Scholar 3:

She was also recommended to me by the first scholar I chose because of her qualifications. She is a good primary source because she has gone to a medical school different from here where I can see if she has any experience to talk about regarding diversity.

Note: I have other people on my list who I have as backups if anything happens!! 

[pepeju720-blog]

I liked very much your post. It helped me to know how to do my own post and it gave me some ideas of whom to interview for the research. it seems that your post was well done. For sectionone you gave all the information about your career and fr section 2 you gave all the information needed about the scholars. Well done.

[pepeju720-blog]

Academic Stalking

My major is Biomedicine

My college is the College of Science

My department is The Department of biological Sciences

Here is a picture of the email and phones of some of the undergraduate advisors

And here the contact information of the college of science

Now here is a little information of the three scholars that I have chosen for the research.

Lets start with Diego De La Mora, MD

He is an assistant professor at Texas Tech University Health Science Center El Paso. He is in the division of general medicine. I could not get the office hour or where his office is located but I got his email which is [email protected] and his phone number that is 915-215-5175. I chose him because he is from juarez and decided to move to the united states to study medicine and to work in the medical field. 

Now lets talk about the next scholar that I chose for my research. 

His name is Pedro Blandon, M.D.

He is an associate professor at Texas Tech University Health Science Center El -Paso. He is in the Division of Nephrolgy. For him I could also not get his office hours or direction but i could get his email which -is [email protected] and his phone number is 915--215-5180. I chose him because he came from south america to do his residency and to work in the united states in the medical field.

The next scholar that I chose and the last one is S. Claudia Didia, M.D.

She is an assistant professor at Texas Tech University Health Science Center El Paso. She is the Chief Division of General Medicine body. Her email is [email protected] and her number is 915-215-5180. I chose her also because she is from South America and immigrated to the United States to do her residency and to work. 

[pepeju720-blog]

Here are the first six questions that I came for the research.

Then I went to the writing center to get help to know if those questions were bias. 

I got really good feedback about my question and I was happy to know that only the fist two questions I have to change and that the other four were correct, they only had minor errors.
