    Assignment: Form and Principles
    Learning how to explore and apply knowledge of the elements and principles of visual organization to conduct a formal analysis of an artwork is one of the learning outcomes of this course. This assignment prepares you to write about the formal elements and the principles of design of an artwork. Please be sure to read Chapters 1-5 and be familiar with the terms in those chapters before completing this assignment.
    Learning objective of this assignment:
    Explore and apply knowledge of the principles of visual organization to conduct formal analysis of artworks
    Task 1: Select a work from the Form and Principle Image List.
    Review the image list and find an image that appeals to you*. Note that each image will have a caption linking to where the work of art is located. Use this information to research the work and/the artist. Please keep in mind that research is only as good as the source, so be ruthless in your search for reputable information. Two sources are required. Please note: Wikipedia should only be considered a secondary source at best.
    *Please note: you must analyze a work from this list. An analysis of an image not on this list will not be accepted.
    Consider reviewing the video below How to Write and Talk about the Elements of Art and Principles of Design
    I take issue with one thing in the clip. If an edge or a shape is created by value contrast and not an actual line, that is an edge not a line.
    Task 2
    Write a paper, including a labeled image of your chosen work, as detailed below:
    In the first paragraph, describe the formal elements the artist uses in the work—line, shape, color, texture, space, light, value. Use specific vocabulary. Be specific. You need to use at least 3 specific terms in context related to formal elements (Chapter 4).
    Then, discuss the principles of design—balance, emphasis and focal point, scale and proportion, repetition and rhythm, and unity and variety, emphasis and subordination, scale and proportion. Which of the principles of design stands out to you? You must use at least 2 terms related to principles of design (chapter 5). In this paragraph, be sure you do not talk about subject matter or content.

    In an additional paragraph, first state the subject matter, then give your opinion of the content. Then research the content of the artwork and/or the artist briefly. Try to relate your research to your chosen image. Please write in your own words; you may include a brief quote, but the majority of what you write should be your words.
    Please utilize scholarly sources, not student blogs or homework help websites—you will not receive credit for poor sources. If you have questions about citations, here is a good resource from your CPCC Library: How Citations Work opens in new window
    Word count should be between 300 and 400 words.
    Task 3
    Before submit your work by uploading your file to the submission link, compare to the exemplary column of the Grading rubric.

    Hello everyone;
    I practiced responsive listening with a family member who was telling me about how they were managing multiple projects at work. I made sure to show I was listening through things like eye contact and mirroring their body language. I also used phrases like “That sounds like a lot” to keep the conversation flowing. Afterward, we checked the listening checklist, and I felt good about how much I’d really focused on them. But the toughest part for me was not immediately jumping to solutions I really had to catch myself from offering advice too soon. I think when there’s a pause in the conversation, my instinct is to try and help fix the problem, but I realized that sometimes people just need someone to listen and acknowledge their struggles. It was definitely an eye opener to see how much value there is in just being present and validating their feelings without trying to fix everything. This really ties into the idea that responsive listening builds trust and rapport (Knackendoffel, Dettmer, & Thurston, 2018). I’ll definitely keep working on staying in the listening role and not rushing to fix things.

    Please post your running recordsLinks to an external site. and your analysis for the early childhood observation here. For this observation, you should be observing children between 2.5 and 7 years old. As with the infant/toddler observation, you may make an appointment and observe children through the cameras at the GCC Child Development Center (if you’d like to go into the classrooms, you’d need to have evidence of vaccination records, please let me know ASAP if you’re interested in that). If you’re not able to make it to the Child Development Center, as with the previous observation, you may observe a child you already know, you may request to do an observation at a school near you, or, with permission from their legal guardian, you may observe a child in a park or other setting. I may be asking to follow up with the guardian of the child, so please make sure you have this information. Please make sure the child is not sleeping or being required to sit and follow someone else’s instructions. We want to see the child as freely as possible. So if you’re observing at a school, you want to make sure it’s at a time where you’re able to observe the child actually engaging, responding, etc. In the same way that you did last week, please conduct a running record of children between 2.5-7, they should come close to totaling 30 minutes. Complete this as a running record – where you write objectively what you see, without opinions or assumptions. Don’t tell me the child is happy or sad, describe what you’re seeing and let me decide how they are feeling based on your description. This should be written as a narrative, not bullet points. The analysis of the observation includes at least three connections between what you observed and the terms and concepts from the readings on early childhood development. Make specific connections, tell me what you observed, what the readings said, and why what you observed is connected to what you read.

    This assignment requires that you consider the value of what you have read related to your specific leadership role. You will also be required to create an implementation plan for one strategy from your reading. Readings are an essential component of any on-line course but often, students skim or skip these requirements in an effort to be as efficient as possible. The purpose of this assignment is to give you time and space to not only consider what you read, but more importantly, to create an actionable plan to implement one new management strategy. Mindfully practicing new behaviors and self-assessing the success of the new behavior allows us to gradually change our priorities and beliefs. • 12 point font, New Times Roman, APA format, double spaced, title page, reference page.

    For your final paper, you will need to cite information from four credible sources to help support your discussion. This assignment will get you started finding the first three.
    This week, you will submit an annotated bibliography for three (3) of your sources for the final project paper. Two sources should be scholarly (peer-reviewed) and from the APUS Library. Read the instructions for upcoming assignments so you will have a good idea of sources you might need.
    Each source (listed in alphabetical order) should have a complete Works Cited or References entry for the citation style you are using, as well as an annotation, which should be a minimum of five sentences long, with approximately three sentences summarizing what the source is about and two sentences explaining how this source will be of use to you in your final paper.
    Annotations that are less than five sentences and fail to summarize what the source is about and explain how it will be of use to you in your final project will be considered under-developed and earn lower scores.
    Write in third person only and write your annotations entirely in your own words.
    To format your Works Cited or References entries, you may use the library cite button discussed in the week four Lessons. Include the article’s web link (the https address—not just the doi) at the end of your Works Cited entry. Just copy and paste it from your web browser, if it is not already included. Examples are shown in the attached Template (which you will download) and Sample (which is attached to show you an example of what a good submission looks like).

    Some people believe that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will represent humanity’s fourth industrial revolution, and it will drive evolutionary and revolutionary advancement. In 2017 the United States Congress issued a joint resolution called The Fundamentally Understanding the Usability and Realistic Evolution of Artificial Intelligence Act of 2017 (Future Act). This joint resolution focuses on a better understanding of current AI applications, the potential of AI, and its current and how it is expected to impact society. In 2019 the National Defense and Authorization Act tasked the DoD to establish a set of activities within the DoD to coordinate the efforts of the Department to develop, mature and transition AI technologies into operational use. In 2019 a guidepost was released for government, industry, and academia in AI capabilities. It is called the American AI Initiative; five guiding principles are intended to coordinate efforts for AI development. Addressing ethical aspects of AI and ethical transparency in developing and employing AI systems is critical for setting expectations within the DoD.
    The information will be used in the final portfolio to discuss the origins of AI, its ethical considerations, sources of funding, AI development and acquisition processes, and workforce reform.
    Harari, Yuval Noah. (Sept. 24, 2024). “What Happens When the Bots Compete for Your Love?” The New York Times. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/04/opinion/yuval-harari-ai-democracy.html
    Harari is a historian and the author of the book Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks From the Stone Age to AI (2024) from which this essay is adapted. In it, he makes the assertion that the survival of democracy is dependent on reliable information technology, something that is becoming more and more obscured, both in the US and around the world. Today, people are overwhelmed by a glut of information, resulting both in shorter attentions spans and a deluge of toxic information, much of it mis- and disinformation, and more specifically propaganda. Add to this the fact that artificial intelligence is capable of not only producing texts, images and videos, but also conversing with us directly, pretending to be human. Harari argues that these manipulative abilities of AI pose new dangers to our democracy.
    This article will be of use to me when writing my final paper since it discusses the dangers and threats posed by AI, both to individuals and collectively to our democracy. Information is power, and understanding how AI works, not just as a tool for humans but as an agent with its own power and volition, will enable us to better prepare for what’s to come in the next phase of the information age.

(2022). “Advances, challenges and opportunities in creating data for trustworthy AI.” Nature Machine Intelligence, 4(8), 669-677. https://www.proquest.com/docview/2928443650/fulltext/C6824ED300DB433BPQ/1?accountid=8289&sourcetype=Scholarly%20Journals
    In the last couple of years Artificial Intelligence (AI) has improved greatly and it is only going up. And with the development of AI, AI model building gets easier with automation of machine learning for example. With the increasing ease of model building, creating datasets for AI remains a problem due to the cost of curation and annotation. More attention needs to be placed on developing methods and standards to improve the data for the AI pipeline. Once a dataset is collected, careful selection of a subset of data is used for training so the AI can improve the reliability of the model. Government regulation and data policy will play an important part in promoting, constraining, and shaping data-centric and trustworthy AI.
    In the final portfolio, the information will be used to compare model-centric versus data-centric approaches in AI. The portfolio will also cover data design for AI, exploring the process from data design to evaluation. It will discuss the steps involved in handling data after the initial dataset is collected. Finally, the portfolio will examine how data can be leveraged to evaluate and monitor AI models.
