Assignment 7 English 102

Assignment 7

Perspective is your viewpoint of something, your personal idea about a certain subject or event. You hear the word perspective a lot in class when the teacher wants your perspective on a book or a subject you are talking about. Another big place you hear perspective is at work, they need your perspective on the new fall line of clothes or the new box cover for Pepsi.  When somebody asks you your perspective it’s the time where you get to express your feeling about something. I think perspective is an important word for English 102 because when writing a research paper you have to write about the entire topic the good and the bad no matter what your personal perspective is about that topic. That doesn’t mean after giving out both sides of facts that you cant add a little of your perspective. I think you just have to be careful and not add to much of that because it’s a paper that helps people understand the topic with facts not a personal paper about your view on the topic.
            I realized after watching 60 minutes that sometimes T.V creates your perspective on the issue. After talking about the 60 minutes my perspective completely changed because T.V has a way to show you their perspective and only their side. The show didn’t have enough evidence or back up to support her problem but it’s a sad problem and the show has a way to make you feel bad and makes you want to believe her. 
            In my research paper the story I’m telling is how a past relationship can change your view on love? Negative Relationships, Positive relationships and, Homosexual relationships, and now those are change your perspective on future relationships. After people would read my research paper they can have they’re own perspective on what they read. I think it’s important to show everything not just things I agree with so that everybody’s perspectives are based off of all true facts and all true situations. I've included one of the two couples being controlling, abusive, and cheating for the negative. For the positive it isnt specific behaviors but studies on how they act towards each other changes their view on love. I used caring. supportive, and loving.   When writing this paper i used all different ages from 10 to old adults. I think its important to understand all ages and what ages strongly change your view on love.  I used a lot of sociology and psychology statistics to show why and how all of those aspects contribute to peoples future. My main point is that you give your readers all the aspects (age, positive negative, homosexual, heterosexual) so that their perspective is based off of everything.

  1. Meggie: I don't know why I didn't get to this assignment! It's certainly not late...anyway... sorry about that.

    The idea you raise in your second paragraph about the way "TV creates your perspective" is super smart. They do, and when we discussed 60 minutes, we saw that clearly! And I agree that you need to include a lot of different perspectives in your project, but where else can you go? Perhaps even non-romantic love?
