Read the documents on pages 147-152 in your Sources of World Societies book.Here we have two European accounts of two South and Central American cultures, the Inca and the Aztecs (Mexica). Please answer the following questions.Why do you think de León dwells at great length on the Inca language in his report? To whom would this information be useful, and why?Diego Durán gives us a sense of the importance that religious customs held for the Aztecs (aka Mexica). Durán, a priest, was also a man of faith, but of the Catholic persuasion. Think about the details he imparts in this account.Based on his examination of the Aztec religion, where do you think Durán saw possible ways to convert the Aztecs to Catholicism – what aspects of this European religion might appeal to the Aztecs?Relatedly, how might European intervention in Aztec religious practices fundamentally change Aztec religion and culture?Be sure to provide quotes and examples from the text, with proper citation, to support your analysis. All submissions must be at least 750 words in length.I will be sending the readings from the book

This Research Paper (Assignment 4) is very standard in format. It will be an 8-10 page paper using 5 sources. Sources should (but do not HAVE to) come from the HACC Library, either books/materials from one of the physical library buildings on campus or journal articles and other sources from the Library’s electronic databases.  Again, many of you will find the database Academic Search Complete extremely useful for your project (see 6.6 for info on how to access ASC).  The previous Unit of work will have given you everything you need to begin this research process, but HACC’s wonderful librarians and I will be delighted to offer help and support as you work. Don’t hesitate to ask questions. If you can’t at first find many sources using the HACC Library, I ask that you try again using different “keyword” searches in Academic Search Complete (see Unit 6).  If, after doing this, you still cannot find adequate sources, use the Library homepage to contact a Librarian and ask for help.  If, finally, you still cannot find the five sources in the HACC library, you may supplement one or two sources from other venues.  If you do this, you are responsible for evaluating the quality of the sources.  What are the credentials of the author?  What is the reputation of the publication in which the source appears? These are the sort of questions you will need to ask of each source before using them in your essay.  Your Research Paper will be argument-driven (just as Assignment 3 was), and will focus on an event/issue in the headlines during the month and year you were born. You can focus on the event in a purely isolated or historical way, or tie it in with contemporary events by showing how an issue has developed over time or an event played out in the following decades You must offer an in-text citation whenever you: i) Quote directly from a secondary source ii) Paraphrase a secondary source iii) Use specific pieces of information (statistics, data, etc.) found in a secondary source Please use MLA format.  My topic is on the “Sega Dreamcast”, the gaming console that came out in September, 1999.  Please also include a thesis in the writing, and be sure to briefly answer your question right away.  That answer will become your thesis.  How did the Dreamcast shape the gaming world?  What is its legacy?

For this assignment, you will research a group/culture that you are unfamiliar with.  You will need to use concepts learned throughout the course.  The research paper must be approximately 8 – 10 pages in length,  double spaced, and written in mla.  Your analysis should include but not limited to:           • What is the cultural history/background of the group?  Remember, you are introducing the group to your audience.      • What are some common experiences this group shares?      • What are potential biases or stereotypes of this group?  Who holds these particular stereotypes?  How can these stereotypes affect workplace diversity and inclusion?      • In the last five years, discuss the demographic shifts with this group.  What are the current issues and trends with this group?  Describe how these issues inform and influence the workplace in regard to diversity and inclusion?        • Identify potential discriminatory policies that would affect this group?  Provide alternative policies to would be inclusive to the group.      • Describe potential “dos and don’ts” when leading or working with individuals from this group.      • What insights does your analysis provide those in leadership roles on how to create a more inclusive workplace?      • In your conclusion, provide a summary of what you learned from this assignment and how did it change or strengthen your views of the group.
