Which two parameters define a Gaussian (Normal) distribution?

The Markov property states that the future state depends only on the current state and action, not on the sequence of states that preceded it.

Part of my job is to prepare you to write papers in other courses, including (for most of you) English 1302, which is focused on research and argument. Our three big papers cover many different writing concepts that we do need to address in order to meet these goals. These concepts includeUse of the writing processBasic academic essay structureUse of examples and detailsUse of descriptive language/focus on word choiceText analysisUse of citations This semester, we covered these concepts inPaper 1: Discussion of who you are as a writer.Paper 2: Descriptive art analysis.Paper 3: Research and ESCAPE analysis. There are myriad different paper topics we could choose, of course. (Each one would take a hundred hours for me to rewrite the lessons, find the examples, and so forth, so I don’t change these lightly.)  Now, I already avoid these types of papers:Creative writing or personal stories (“The time I did XYZ”). This is not useful in preparing for academic writing, and it would take a whole quarter of the semester that we could be using to better prepare you for what lies ahead. Yes, it would be easier. Yes, it would be more enjoyable. But if you show up in 1302 with nothing but personal stories under your belt, you’re going to struggle.Typical personal topics (“My role model” and things of that nature). The reasons are the same as above.Argument. English 1302 is already focused on these for the whole term. We have been writing arguments all semester anyway (any piece of writing that asserts an opinion is an argument). But we save the more typical issue-based argument for 1302 since it’s more complicated than most people realize, and I don’t want you writing a half-@$$ed argument here thinking it’s enough since it isn’t. With all of those caveats, then, my questions are these:What are your thoughts on our paper topics? What did you most/least enjoy? Learn from the most? Please explain.What suggestions do you have for paper topics that still meet the criteria discussed above? Please explain.

Last question, which is really two questions!What is one suggestion you have that is not already covered by the above questions? Please explain.What is one part of class you absolutely would NOT change? Why? Please explain.

I no longer grade grammar in essays (unless it’s a grammar-focused question or unless you were told to edit something and didn’t do it). I have still chosen to cover grammar concepts, though. I think it’s important that all writers understand these concepts even if one day AI is doing all of our editing for us. Why? Because, as you know, AI gets it wrong, and I want you to have the knowledge and confidence to push back against our robot overlords.My questions are these:Do you find the grammar lessons valuable? Why or why not?Would you have liked to cover any grammar concepts we did not discuss? Please explain.Do you have any suggestions for how to better incorporate grammar instruction into the class? Please explain.
