My media

For my media, I will use power point because it organizes and shows my audience in pictures what my words are saying. In power point, you can use pictures are key phrases to summarize what you are saying. Having these pictures and key words will better captivate my audience's attention and keep them interested.
I am going to include pictures and voice overs and pull out key words in order to make the power point more interesting. This also allows my audience to use many of their senses while watching my power point.

Post Research Paper Review

I enjoyed this paper more because we had a wide variety of topics that we could talk about and it didn't have to do with my major. When every class pertains to science and math, I like having a class where I can talk about other topics as well. This paper was much more research oriented, and I liked trying to convince readers to look at the topic from my perspective rather than just reporting about what I found from my research, like I did in the first paper.
It was challenging for me to find non-scholarly sources, because there are so many scholarly sources about prison reformation. The topic was always something I was interested in, and I was glad to have an experience to better educate myself on the subject and form an opinion with which I could elaborate on. In an argument based research paper, you get to show multiple perspectives, but ultimately your goal is to get readers on your side of the argument, to convince them that what you believe is right. Whereas for an instructional based research paper, you just want to inform readers and let them form their own opinions.

Research Paper Outline

Thesis: Shakespeare was too uneducated to write his own plays.

       I.                        “As an individual of common birth, there is no way that such an individual would have the necessary grasp of languages, the classics, political theory, and history, necessary to write such works, whereas a high born and educated gentleman would.” http://www.williamshakespearefacts.net/did-shakespeare-write-his-plays.html

    II.                         Given the sheer number of plays, poems, and sonnets, it would be impossible for a single individual to produce so extensive a body of work.

 Linguistically and structurally, it has been suggested that both the language (lexicon) and writing style is far too varied, and would therefore point to a number of authors – and not necessarily including Shakespeare.

There is too little contemporary documentation linking Shakespeare to the plays and writings of associated to the 'Bard'. It cannot therefore be conclusively shown that Shakespeare is the author.

 III.                        Who else could have written them?

Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603)

17th Earl of Oxford, Edward de Vere (1550-1604)

Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626)

 IV.                        Arguments for Shakespeare:

Shakespeare, although a commoner, had received a sufficiently good education that included subjects such the classics, rhetoric, history, and Latin grammar, in order to be able to write such literary works.

The majority of the plays bear his name on the title page, including subsequent editions of the same play, albeit with some variation (such as Shake-speare instead of Shakespeare, for example).

The Shakespearean plays were performed by a company of actors variously known as the Lord Chamberlain's Men (1594-96), Lord Hunsdon's Men (1596-97), Lord Chamberlain's Men (1597-1603), and finally the King's Men 91603-42). Shakespeare was a central member of this company.

In 1610, and in a publication with the title The Scourge of Folly, John Davies' poem 'To our English Terence, Mr Will. Shake-speare', clearly identified William Shakespeare as a playwright – the word Terence referring to an ancient Roman playwright of that name.

With regards to the deeds to the Globe Theatre, there is documentation that proves that the William Shakespeare named on the deeds, and the William Shakespeare who appears in the Stratford-upon-Avon baptismal record of 1564, are one and the same person.

    V.                        Shakespeare’s education:

a.       http://www.shakespeare-online.com/biography/shakespeareeducation.html

b.      There is no documentation that says Shakespeare went to school.

He did not go to any prestigious schools, just the one closest to his ho
