The paper must be submitted in .doc or .docx or PDF format, and I must be able to open it on D2L (otherwise, no grade can be given). Use some reasonable font of your choosing, such as Arial, Calibri, or Verdana. Your font should be of reasonable size—perhaps 11 point or 12 point, as appropriate to your chosen font. I am not going to be terribly picky about font size—don’t get stressed out about it—I’m just saying that I don’t want to have to strain my eyes to read it, nor do I want it to be comically large.EXTRA CREDIT SHORT ESSAY TOPIC:Please read de Botton pages 205-244 (“Consolation for Difficulties”). Then, write a short essay ansewing the following questions. 1) What are some qualities Nietzsche would say a fulfilled life should have, and why these qualities would be good to have. Why are difficulties a major part in living a fulfilled life for Nietzsche? (This will should be about half of your essay). 2) Next, give a personal example that fits in with Nietzsche’s ideas about difficulties and fulfillment (second half of your essay).You should write your paper in the standard essay format. This is, in brief, the following:Introduction: Say what you are going to do in the body of the essay and have a thesis statement;Body of the Essay: Write the substantive content of the essay;Conclusion: Review what you have done in the body of the essay.Obviously, the body of the essay will be several paragraphs long. You don’t need to put fluff, sweeping generalities, grand-sounding statements, historical trivia, or clever remarks in your introduction or conclusion. Your job is simply to clearly signal to me what you are up to in the paper.Do not use any source other than the selections from the course readings, and use your own words to discuss the ideas. No direct quotes and no plagiarism. Paraphrase/write in your own words.Your writing should be crisp, clear, concise, and well organized. Be as thorough as is required to accurately convey the appropriate information. Writing so little as to be unclear or incomplete in your treatment of the topic is a problem; but it is not a problem that can be remedied by filling out pages with fluff, waffle, and vague generalities. I will value precision, clarity, and rigor over literary flourish and clever style. Better to be clunky and clear than stylish and vague.Remember to adopt that standard approach as writing as if you are addressing a reasonably intelligent reader who is unfamiliar with these topics. You have take care to explain things to him/her. Use technical terms as appropriate, but you must always explain any such technical terms. Please consult Paper Rules for more details as well.I hope you enjoy writing the paper. I hope everyone does a good job and gets full extra credit. Remember, as always, your grade depends on you.

After watching the movie, you should write two arguments, and the reading and the movie should use quoteRequirement?1. Purpose: to cultivate the habits of critical reading by making arguments and providing evidence2. Content: identify an argument (not merely a topic) from a required reading (with direct quotations and page numbers) and discuss it in relation to the designated film of the day3. Focus: your ability to articulate someone else’ argument and state your interpretation of a film in relation to that argument; mere factual information or plot summary won’t count as argument4. Length: 1 double-space page or 350 words for each short paper; the portion in excess of the limit will not be graded for credit5. Grading: out of 10 points for each commentary, 3 for identification of an argument and logical transition, 3 points for film discussion focused on details, and 4 for writing (grammar, expression, coherence, style)6.

PHIL 103 Signature Assignment For your signature assignment, you will be applying two ethical theories to an ethical problem. Examples of such problems are euthanasia for terminal patients, capital punishment: capricious and arbitrary, police brutality, abortion, simulated killing, and so forth.Your topic will have to be approved by me, so send me a brief synopsis as soon as you know what you want to write on. Your essay should be at least 6-7 pages. The body of the essay should be around 1000 words.In the early modules, we discussed ethical theories. These are ethical relativism, ethical egoism, utilitarianism, Kant’s deontology, and natural law theory/virtue ethics. In the later modules of the course, we discussed several problems in applied ethics. You may choose from those applied ethics cases or choose one of your own.Structure of the Essay1. Introduction to the topic and thesisGive a brief history and background of your topic. Following this, you must state your thesis. Your thesis must make a stand on the ethical problem. For example, ‘euthanasia for terminally ill patients is an ethically right choice to make in many cases.’ The main arguments you present in this essay will defend this position.2. Body of Essaya. Select two ethical theories to use in the main body of your essay. The first theory will be the one that supports your thesis. State and explain this theory and apply it to your moral issue.b. The second theory will give the opposite analysis. If your thesis is that “X is morally right,” then the counterargument will try to show that x is morally wrong. In this way, you will be giving a balanced account of your topic. Moreover, it would be good to provide some of your own arguments for why the counter-view is faulty. You thus support your original thesis in a better and stronger way. Academic sources are good at this point of your essay as well.c. Compare and contrast how the two ethical theories you have chosen are different. You may label one section of your essay, “Comparing the Theories.” The next section might be labeled, “Contrasting the Theories.”3. ConclusionIn your conclusion, you should reaffirm your thesis and the ethical theory that supports your argument; as well, you need to include a final section on why that ethical theory also helps make other ethically right decisions when faced with other difficult ethical decisions. This part of your conclusion describes your ethical stance moving forward and your confidence in the ethical theory you have chosen.The paper itself must be an academically formatted paper (APA). Your academic support must include at least 3 credible academic sources that discuss either the ethical issue you chose or the ethical systems you describe in the paper.Your paper should be in the following APA format:
