Identify and discuss at least two strategies for deception Glass used

ASSIGNMENT SIX Please see the film Shattered Glass

ASSIGNMENT SIX: Please see the film Shattered Glass (Lionsgate, 2004). You should be able to find the filmonline here or on DVD.  The DVD cost is about $6. OV instant viewing provides other options. Most college library film collections have it too. Please contact your tutor immediately if you have any difficulty finding the film.

 

Questions for you to answer:

 

[a] Although the film is not explicit on this point, what seems to be driving Stephen Glass? As best as you can tell, what are his life goals and aspirations? Did he truly “know himself,” including his own strengths and weaknesses?

 

 

[b] Again, we can only hypothesize, but–before his downfall– how do you think Glass would assess his own intelligence? Is it likely he saw himself as smarter than his colleagues and editors?

 

 

[c] Identify and discuss at least two strategies for deception Glass used. Why did they ultimately fail?

 

 

[d] Did Glass leave what Greenspan called “a trail of casualties” in his wake? Who/what was hurt/damaged by his deception?

 

[e] What advice would you give to editors about how to avoid hiring someone like Stephen Glass? What kind of pre-employment screening do you recommend?

Describe the portions of Singers article you seek to engage/critique

Assignment Overview

 

In Module 4 Assignment 2, you were asked to provide your impressions of Peter Singer’s article “America’s Shame.” Now, you will compose a researched response to this article. This assignment allows you to assess and defend the reasonableness of your personal beliefs through critical assessment of Singer’s arguments and the presentation of your own, original arguments about the subject using the tools of evaluation you have learned throughout the course.

Assignment Overview:

For this assignment, assume that you have been asked to present a PowerPoint presentation at your local community center about the topics of world poverty and education. You have decided to use Peter Singer’s article as the starting point of your presentation. As you craft your presentation you will need to:

  • Present the major claims of Singer.
  • Present your own original argument offering thoughtful solutions to real-world problems.
  • Back up your argument with outside research.

Here is the link to the article by Singer: “America’s Shame” from The Chronicle of Higher Education. 55(27), B6–B10. (EBSCO AN 37137370).

Assignment Details:

  • Develop a 12–15-slide presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint.
  • Include two additional slides—one for the title and the other for a References page.
  • Bullet points are acceptable, but use complete sentences throughout the presentation.

Be sure to include the following:

  • Describe the portions of Singers article you seek to engage/critique.
  • Clearly state your own argument/thesis in response.
    • Remember, the nature of the stance is not important; you can agree or disagree with any point Singer makes in the article. The important thing is for you to construct a stance that clearly engages Singer’s position. Include properly cited examples from the article.
    • As you advance your own thesis, be sure to include your position on how to address the problems that Singer discusses in his article. Again, you may agree or disagree with Singer; however, be sure to offer your own solutions to the issue of world poverty, as discussed by Singer.
  • Support your argument with the use of original research.
    • Use at least three credible, academic resources to support your positions.
    • These should be sources other than Singer’s “America’s Shame” article.
  • Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
