R​‌‌‌‍‍‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‍‌​eview the debate on whether grammar should be taught explicitly in English Language Arts classes at public schools. The paper should not be a mere summary of what you found, but be organized into 3 sections: 1. Identify what curricular setting you are interested in (grade level, ESL, ELA,…). 2. Survey what arguments are being brought to bear on whether grammar should be explicitly taught in that setting. Proceed source by source. Do not write this as if you were writing a textbook yourself, and withhold judgments – just report. Make sure that you know what grammatical knowledge is specifically required for the North Carolina Standard Course of Study (ht​‌‌‌‍‍‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‍‌​tps://www.ncpublicschools.org/curriculum/languagearts/scos/). 3. Establish a coherent argument (if your sources permit), or offer an alternative, or point out irreconcilable discrepancies, or any combination of these. This is the evaluation section. A successful paper must demonstrate thorough grasp of the material. Section three is what the paper is about—your ability to assess and evaluate what you read. A successful paper thus not only gives accurate and complete reports but also include a final section that reflects your own ability to analyze and synthesize the material you found. A paper with a weak section three, in other words, cannot receive a grad​‌‌‌‍‍‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‍‌​e of A.

How does this lead to the problem of induction? How does Hume solve the problem of induction? Explain your answer. 3) In our selection from Plato’s Theaetetus, Socrates examines three definitions of knowledge. What are the three definitions, and what are the problems with each of them? Provide your own definition of knowledge that avoids these problems. 4) Explain Gettier’s criticism of the justified true belief (JTB) theory of knowledge. How would you fix the JTB theory in light of his criticism? Defend your answer. 5) According to Code, the sex of the knower is “epistemologically significant.” What does this mean?

Introductory Paragraph: Your essay should begin with an introductory paragraph in which you state your thesis and outline the argument(s) that you will make in support of your thesis. Supporting Paragraphs: After the introduction, your essay will contain several supporting paragraphs, each one devoted to explaining one part of your argument. Concluding Paragraph: Your essay will end with a concluding paragraph in which you restate your thesis and summarize, but do not repeat, the argument(s) that you made in support of the thesis. Bibliography or Works Cited: You must include either one after your concluding paragraph. Essay Content ü Audience: Imagine that you are writing your essay for someone who has never taken a philosophy course. That person should be able to read your essay and understand how and why it is an answer to the essay question. Take time to craft your answers and to organize your thoughts in a clear and accessible manner. Do not assume that your audience understands the meanings of the concepts you are using: define all technical philosophical terms. Remember to answer all parts of the question.

W​‌‌‌‍‍‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‍‌​rite a brief essayon the theory of language evolution as presented by the writers of our two texts, Burling and Bickerton. In light of the theories offered by the authors we have read during the last unit of the course: Chomsky, Pinker, Pinker and Bloom, Lieberman, Rumbaugh, Everett, and Ulbaek. Your essay should seek to articulate the ways in which these prominent theorists support, contradict, and/or qualify the theories of Bickerton and Everett. Your essay should include substantive discussions of the work of Burling and Bickerton and at least three of the authors we studied in this last unit; in addition, it should include a substantive discussion of at least one of the three essays in the Essay 2 folder, the essays by Tomasello, Everett, and Hurford. A Note About Citations: For those essays taken from The First Word: The Search for the Origins of Language, by Christine Kenneally, take note that each is a ch​‌‌‌‍‍‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‍‌​apter in which she discusses these scholars’ theories based on her research into their writings and her personal interviews with the scholars. Thus, when you cite something from Kenneally’s book, be sure to make it clear whether what you are citing is Kenneally’s opinion, a paraphrase of an opinion expressed by the linguist she is interviewing, or a quote from one of the scholars’ works. All references to the material in Kenneally should cite Kenneally and give the page(s) from that text. Should you cite material from one of the film clips, refer to the most recent APA format for such videos—As I’ve said in class, the Purdue Owl is a good resource for documentation style. Additional Information and Requirements Due Date December 3 (to be submitted in a word document to Canvas) Citations Minimum of 10 in-text citations. Manuscript Style Traditional font (11 or 12 point); double-spaced; follow APA stylesheet (no abstract or title ​‌‌‌‍‍‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‍‌​sheet needed)

Question 1. 1. A monopolist is facing a demand function Q = 20 – P. The monopolist has a cost function C(Q) = 90 + 2 . Please answer this question graphically and also analytically whenever possible. a. If the monopolist charges a uniform price to all its customers, what is the profit maximizing price, and quantity? What is the profit and the consumer surplus? b. Suppose the government does not like the outcome in the previous question. What is the minimum price it can force the monopolist to charge that is consistent with the monopolist operating, and why? What would the government need to do to increase the surplus even further? What are the difficulties in achieving this objective? c. How could the monopolist increase profits even further? What is the maximum possible profit achievable in this market, and how can it be achieved?

Question 2: In The Economy, answer Exercise 7.3, Unit 7: Below you can see the average and marginal costs per student for the year 1990-1 that Koshal and Koshal calculated from their research. 1. How do average costs change as the numbers of students rise? 2. Using the data for average costs, fill in the missing figures in the total cost column. 3. Plot the marginal and average cost curves for undergraduate education on a graph, with costs on the vertical axis and the number of students on the horizontal axis. On a separate diagram, plot the equivalent graphs for graduates. 4. What are the shapes of the total cost functions for undergraduates and graduates? (You could sketch them using what you know about marginal and average costs.) Plot them on a single chart using the numbers in the Total cost column. 5. What are the main differences between the universities’ cost structures for undergraduates and graduates? 6. Can you think of any explanations for the shapes of the graphs you have drawn?
