Oceаnоgrаphers interested in the effects оf rising temperаtures glоbally found historical data of ocean temperatures off Cabo San Lucas from the 1950s. In order to test the hypothesis that water temperatures have risen since then, they repeated the measurements from the years 2000-2010. Ocean temperature was measured at a coastal station on January 1 of every year from 1950 to 1960, and again from 2000-2010. The data are presented here in a graph format with standard deviations represented by the error bars. Accessible description of imgae: Bar chart titled “Average Ocean Temperatures” with the y-axis labeled “Average Temperature (°F)” ranging from 40 to 80 degrees. Two bars compare time periods 1950–1960 and 2000–2010. The 1950–1960 bar is just under 70°F, while the 2000–2010 bar is slightly above 70°F, with small error bars shown on both bars, indicating a slight increase in average ocean temperature over time. What was the approximate mean ocean temperature 1950-1960?
In this prоmpt, yоu will be using AI tо compаre аnd contrаst theoretical explanations of the 2018 Armenian Revolution. In turn, you will use Google Gemini to look up the following 2 prompts: Step 1. Cut and paste this prompt into Google Gemini: "Use Theda Skocpol's structural theory to explain the 2018 Armenian revolution." Copy the above prompt and paste it into your essay. Below the prompt, cut and paste the Google AI results into your essay. (Google AI will return 3-5 propositions summarizing how the theory explains the revolution). Step. 2. Cut and paste this prompt into Google Gemini: "Use Jack Goldstone's 4th generation theory to explain the 2018 Armenian revolution." Copy the above prompt and paste it into your essay. Below the prompt, cut and paste the Google AI results into your essay. (Google AI will return 3-5 propositions summarizing how the theory explains the revolution). Step 3. Read through the prompts carefully. In your reading, pay particular attention to what the explanations have in common and where they are different. Step 4. Construct your essay. Your essay will happen in 3 pieces: In Part 1: Identify 3 points on which both theories agree. That is, where do they "agree" and "overlap" in their explanations of the important events that led to the revolution. Be sure that your first paragraph specifically and concisely identifies the 3 points you plan to discuss in part 1. In Part 2: Identify 3 points on which the theories differ in their explanations. That is, each theory identifies particular elements that are "central" to the explanation of the revolution. However, these theories see different causes as "central" to or otherwise driving the revolution. Be sure that the first paragraph specifically and concisely identifies the 3 points you plan to discuss in part 2. In Part 3: Come to your own set of conclusions. You now have 2 academic theories that explain the 2018 Armenian Revolution. Looking across both explanations, which posit 6-10 "causal" factors for the revolution, decide which 4 propositions YOU agree with and why. In this way, you are picking and choosing elements from both theories that you think most accurately identify/explain why the Armenian revolution happened. You should identify a minimum of 4 propositions that explain the revolution. Not only do you need to identify these, but you need to explain (and support with the class readings) WHY you think these things are most important. NOTE: Remember that one of the criteria necessary to receive a grade on this reflection is to cite all course materials for the week. However, to lighten your burden a bit: you MUST cite ONLY: Goldstone et al. (2022) Djuve and Knutsen (2023) Boese and Hellmeier (2024)
