Senior Seminar II Winter 2011 ISP 4860 Section 001 (Bowen) Class 2, January 24 Course web site:

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 22 Starting Off Agenda for tonight  Using WSU Research Databases – Deborah Tucker  The signin sheet  Moodle and Pictures  Review of overview  Research – MLA and references  Content – Population  In-class writing assignment

Signin Sheet If “WSU OK?” is marked with “No” or “?” for you, I am not sure that I have a valid WSU address for you. I would like to have these, since then I can use Blackboard to send s to the class. If you are marked as not registered, please let me know when you do register. Then you will be included if I send to the class using Blackboard. 1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 23

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 24 Moodle and Pictures We will be using Moodle (similar to BlackBoard) for turning in work Meet here next week to see how to use Moodle Moodle has pictures  Only visible to class members (signin)  Ready for your Moodle picture tonight?  If not, next week

Meet Here Again Next Week Next week 1/31 also meet in Computer Lab C  How to use Moodle  Then back to 195 Manoogian 2/7 for rest of semester

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 26 Review of Overview Course topic: The Human Footprint, 25 pg  A research paper  Huh? (What does it mean)  Subtopics (topics for paper) on next slide  Five suggested Chapters, avg. 5 pages each 1.Human footprint with focus on your subtopic 2.Present status for your subtopic 3.Trends for your subtopic 4.Sustainability for your subtopic 5.Human footprint and interactions with your subtopic

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 27 The Human Footprint Subtopics - pick one for research paper topic  Population  Urbanization  Development / disease  Food / fish  Institutional Capacity and Failed States  Water  Ecosystem services  Energy / Global Warming  Sustainability  Consumption & waste  Land: dwelling & food  Tragedy of Commons

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 28 Research: Why References/Citations? A citation or reference gives the information needed to find and, to some extent, evaluate a reference Purposes:  To give credit to those you borrow from  To trace your influences  To let the reader check up on you  To let the reader build on your work

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 29 MLA Citations MLA – short in-text citations (minimize disruption to reader) All direct quotations and other references to authority must be cited.  To say that Lansing is the capital of MI, no citation necessary – this is common knowledge If a reference is cited but the text is not in quotes, then the words must be your own. Borrowed ideas must be cited also MLA citation in parentheses inside sentence

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 210 MLA Citations Full bibliographic information on “Works Cited” page in back – slide coming up Example (in body) - author’s name and page inside parentheses Some people argue that managing the commons will require harsh tactics (Hardin 3).  Means page 3 of the article written by Garrett Hardin

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 211 MLA Citations Three basic MLA styles EDW #48 Pg 367: 1.Author’s name in sentence, only one work cited by that author: only page e.g. (3) 2.Author’s name not in sentence, only one work cited by that author: include name page e.g. (Hardin 3) 3.Author’s name not in sentence, more than one work cited by that author: include shortened title, e.g. (Hardin, Managing 3) See variations in EDW or on OWL Next week: citing web pages

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 212 At back: Works Cited/Consulted Reference to work, without page number Reader must be able to find the right line! So, for book EDW #50 Pg 373:  Authors in alpha order by last name, first author with last name first  Title  Place of publication  Publisher  Date of publication

MLA Style for Works Cited Examples for book: EDW #50 Pg 373  One author: Hardin, Garrett. Nature and Man’s Fate. New York: New American Library,  Two or three authors: Appleby, Joyce, Lynn Hunt, and Margaret Jacob. Telling the Truth about History. New York: Norton, 1994.

MLA Style for Works Cited Periodicals: EDW #50 Pg 380:  Author  Title of article  Periodical title  Volume number  Date  Page, by periodical’s method

MLA Style for Works Cited Examples for Periodicals: EDW #50 Pg 380  Single author in a journal paginated by volume: Norris, Margot. Narration under a Blindfold: Reading Joyce’s ‘Clay.’” PMLA 102 (1987):  Paginated by issue: Lofty, John. “The Politics at Modernism’s Funeral.” Canadian Journal of Political and Social Theory 6.3 (1987):

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 216 Number of References 12 research-quality references, i.e.  8 from WSU research databases  Scholarly books or articles  UN & other government websites  Websites of scholarly/research organizations  SOP textbook, references there Others may be mixed in  Examples: newspapers, popular magazines  Put “RQ” in front of the research-quality ones or have two sections of Works Cited

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 217 Research Portfolio Handouts, review of handouts Bring to class in two weeks (2/7) In-class evaluation:  Group comparison  Self-assessment of your own portfolio Regular evaluations during semester

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 218 Content: Population Not in Planet in Peril – mainly natural environment  There in the background – helps to cause many of the environmental problems in PIP Right at the start of State of the Planet Humans are the dominant species on earth  (Will microorganisms make us extinct?)  We dominate all major ecosystems / continents  We are a very successful species

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 219 The Dominant Species To a large extent, we are responsible for most other (large?) species – they survive or become extinct because of what we do  Are we ready for this responsibility? Do we understand that we are responsible? Are we able? Complex relationships, lack of knowledge

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 220 Population Trends Started out as minor species in Southern Africa ~ 5MYA Growth rate increasing  600 M 1700  2 B 1927  4 B 1974  6 B 1999  6.6 B 2008  9.1 B 2050 (UN does not project beyond this)

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 221 Population Background All population figures are estimates Population tends to grow by percent, not by absolute numbers  If there are more people, they naturally have more children Population rates of growth (e.g. percent) are not fixed, but have many influences  ~ 1965 growing by 2.1% per year  By 2002 fell to 1.2% - worldwide decrease

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 222 World Regions 1750 – 1950 most growth in Europe & New World Now most growth in Africa, Middle East, Asia Rich countries = developed: North America, western Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan Less developed = ROW Least developed: 49 countries

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 223 Human Population (updated) Region2010 Pop (B)2050 UN est. World China India US Europe More Developed Less Developed Least Developed

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 224 UN World & Africa Estimates Charts make it clear that population is not expected to level off by 2050 Most growth expected in poorer countries

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 225 Vital Rates For an individual country, Change in population = births – deaths + migration (can be + or -) For the world, change = births – deaths Population can increase if births ↑ or deaths ↓ (population gets older)  Worldwide, life expectancy ↓, but this should be OK because births decrease after a lag (“demographic transition”)

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 226 Malthus 1798 Thomas Malthus An Essay on the Principle of Population  Population tends to grow by percent, food by absolute amount, so predicted worldwide famine  Didn’t happen – technology raised food supply  This is similar but often dismissed because Malthus was wrong  I think we will come through, with major changes

Demographic (Population) Trends Increase in population  In less-developed areas (may lessen impact since they use fewer resources)  Decreasing fertility (slows rate of increase and peak population) Population aging in developed countries  More expensive Urbanization (another topic) Literacy and prosperity increasing while still remaining as large problems 1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 227

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 228 Writing Last week one-half page on how the new year is starting off for you  A clear overall impression of your experience. You did well here  Give specific examples in an organized manner. Yes.  No spelling or grammar standards as long as meaning is clear. But these were generally OK. Group critique – read yours aloud to the group Group discusses each piece and makes suggestions for improvements, you take notes Rewrite, turn both in with notes on discussion Grades: everyone gets an A for this one.

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 229 Next Week – 1/28 Meet again in Lab C You should have PIP finished Have a good idea of your subtopic Start working on finding research-quality references  Don’t let practice here tonight get stale! Start reading in SOP  First Chapter to read is the one on your topic! Topic: use of Moodle for turning in work  Be ready for your Moodle picture!  Will need AccessID and Password for webmail, or other web-based

1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 230 Two Weeks –2/7 Back to 195 Manoogian, for good Bring Portfolio to class Reading in SOP: read “your” chapter first, then rest in order Moodle pictures

In-Class Writing Assignment For this course, your main tasks in the next few weeks are to (a) choose a topic and get any approvals that are needed, and (b) start collecting research references Write a brief paragraph (two total) for each task, including (1) any results you have already, (2) where you think you are in good shape to get started, and (3) where you might need help or encouragement You can leave when you have turned these in 1/24/11ISP 4860 Class 231
