• 03:00 - 13:00: Comparison and Contrast Essay Discussion The chapter "Comparison and Contrast Essay Discussion" emphasizes the organizational strategies involved in writing effective comparison and contrast essays. The instructor refers to a poem titled 'Winners and Losers' and a text 'Strategies for Success' to illustrate the differences and similarities in various contexts, aiming to guide students towards successful outcomes. It highlights the importance of examining both the similarities and differences in topics being discussed. The instructor also discusses the construction of a "comparison and contrast organization statement brainstorm sheet," which is a tool designed to aid students in outlining their thoughts and ideas clearly when approaching comparison and contrast writing assignments. Preparing for class discussion, the teacher indicates that the material will be reviewed in detail during the class session, encouraging students to familiarize themselves with the content to participate actively.

• 17:00 - 25:00: Key Concepts and Objectives for Comparison and Contrast The chapter titled 'Key Concepts and Objectives for Comparison and Contrast' focuses on laying the foundational understanding necessary for effectively comparing and contrasting themes.

• 33:30 - 39:00: Gratitude and Closing Remarks In the closing remarks of this chapter, the speaker discusses the importance of understanding key concepts to enhance the quality of one's writing. They compare the role of a nurse in 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' to emphasize the significance of clarity in communication.

• 22:30 - 23:00 but usually praising uh if it's above something that means I'm correcting or I might be praising too like good point I'll say if it is a good point in my professional opinion um and so you don't want to repeat there if I'm complaining about run-ons you want to go to war with them now what I want to do now I want to keep I want to start moving um to [Music] um I'm like that how to write a

• 35:30 - 36:00 with I if I can get it out of my notebook yeah I have a notebook I work from and I put things on um in PowerPoint those that I can and you see two young men um where there is um one young man uh the healthy looking one water is clean and the other one that you can hardly see it not so healthy diseased water and that's what a
• 36:00 - 36:30 lot of people have to drink uh uh those that have to drink dirty water on this planet they must walk four miles to even get it only to find Cesspool soup you know they're drink the children are drinking filthy polluted disease causing water children filtered in from every direction as we stood by no I wasn't there but this is what the piece says
• 36:30 - 37:00 stood by the swampy water hole I wonder how thirsty I would have to be to drink the cessful soup now you know you cannot survive without water not long you know and so they go ahead and drink it and get sick and sometimes die you know however this is before versus after when the water pump was dug in and and and clean water found because there is clean water it can be found um and this young
• 37:00 - 37:30 lady wrote a letter so you don't have to worry about these things I hope I would like to thank you she writes for the work you have done at my school years ago we were using a rope and a bucket to gather water from a hole which was very cumbersome now we are very happy we filled as kings because you the organization that did this gave us a pump and saved Our Lives you know that's one of the reasons to be
• 37:30 - 38:00 grateful for and one of the reasons I might add why you get an education so that you can help to have knots because you become and maybe already are a have well let's look at the key Concepts I always have key Concepts to understand in the new unit which is comparison contrast and that paper is to come in in uh uh in a few weeks you
• 38:00 - 38:30 know just like we said comparison means similarities that's how I Define it contrast differences you're doing one or the other predominantly in the paper one or the other two sides that's one way of organiz in the three body paragraphs
• 38:30 - 39:00 you point a let's call it a wait let's let's call it 0.1 excuse me 01 and you're dealing with A and B let's say differences half on a half on b0.1 point two half on a half on B3 half on a half on B differences that's two sides organizational pattern your textbook
• 39:00 - 39:30 calls it subject strategy calls it the block pattern Point by point you is different and you choose whichever one you prefer uh point one AB a ab ab let's say differences point two ab ab ab ab differences you're contrasting 3 a a Ab
• 39:30 - 40:00 differences that's Point by point we'll illustrate that and there are examples in the booklet similarity well that word speaks for itself you're looking at how things are alike advantages and disadvantages well when you're arguing um about two automobiles let's say well if you're talking about differences you look at advantages and disadvantages you know and so will come out better be careful with that students
• 40:00 - 40:30 get messed up with what I'm trying to say with advantages and disadvantages sales and persuasion when you're dealing with objects you know you're trying to persuade uh that one is perhaps superior to the other because it's your preference you know and so you're doing a sales job in a sense you know so I put that term up there because it can be applied analysis that's when you're
• 40:30 - 41:00 analyzing two things you know because that's what you're doing with compare and contrast it's analysis Pro versus con is essentially Latin for advantages and disadvantages now there are three objectives we want you to see that there are three objectives one three of my objectives anyway is to teach you the student to write a paper that
• 41:00 - 41:30 will analyze information by looking at similarities or differences not both similarities or differences not similarities and differences similarities or differences one of the other not both new knowledge will be gained this is this gives you an opportunity to learn as you delve into looking at
• 41:30 - 42:00 closely two items whatever there might be I've already looked at some of the possibilities to teach a student to go beyond the obvious you know so we want you to to analyze and to go deep you know everyone knows that a block is different from a circle or a square is different from a circle you know an apple is different from an orange I will not accept topics like that you know and to write sophisticated
• 42:00 - 42:30 sentences to write better and to write more sophisticated sentences now um I have this comic here which you can't see but I insist on doing it because I think there's some wisdom in it and it lays the foundation for comparison and contest um it's a mama comic one of my favorite I have two Comics one I did find but it's the
• 42:30 - 43:00 followup to this particular comic her son Francis Francis has some issues um um he's a mooch that's why he has some issues Mama Francis says to his mama can you spare a couple of bucks broke again Francis Mama replies Francis You're simply not making it on your own you can't afford your rent food or
• 43:00 - 43:30 clothing as I see a dialing you've got two Alternatives that's comparison and contrast he needs to make a decision here are his options you take the job Mr Sweatman offered you in the heavy duty stock room at his Steamroller Factory or you move back to my house that's his other choice where all your needs and expenses will be taken care of
• 43:30 - 44:00 by me you know it's a classic contrast you know or comparison but I'm sure they're two different options well he doesn't respond she says you decide son which will it be he doesn't respond he says nothing and so Mama chimes in which one am I Francis the rock or the hard
• 44:00 - 44:30 place which one am I the rock or the hard place so I like that one because mama mama got some rules uh and uh it may be more stringent than working at that hard backbreaking job that he's only qualified to do he's not qualified to do a whole lot you
• 44:30 - 45:00 know but he'd rather mooch off his mama now this is how francis's mama would actually look like this is not the exact comic I found this other comic that I wanted y'all to um you know more or less look at I'm looking for something else for the moment uhoh I'm not ready look for it yet I want I want to do the
• 45:00 - 45:30 comic uh there we go I'm fiddling around a little bit and you see Francis didn't change this is the closest thing I could find to the comic I just shared choose between the job and mooching Francis this picking up a job here and there has got to stop she says I want you to have formal employment you know so there he is like he's all dressed up begging for
• 45:30 - 46:00 money but anyway little humor there let see what okay I'm not ready for that yet I'm just looking ahead see where I'm where I'm headed for what I want you to see what I want you to see oh cars two cars both 2020s you know uh the Toyota Camry and the Ford Fusion you know um both
• 46:00 - 46:30 midsize cars both very popular you know to the camera and the Ford Fusion now what I want to do next is go to my there's a couple things I want to look at first I don't know if I one item I don't know if I'll even get to it yet uh let's
• 46:30 - 47:00 see I'm looking and I can't find it bear with me a minute this the one thing I needed to put on the screen and did not so I gotta go find it in my files there it is so when I if I get to it I got it
• 47:00 - 47:30 okay now the next thing I want to do is get to my PDF because I'm ready to do winners and losers yeah know I'm following my you know I got a notebook here and I got all these things most of these things there so it tells me what to go to next if I pay attention to what I'm doing um h I don't want to get too far ahead of myself I'm a little somewhat ahead of
• 47:30 - 48:00 myself but anyway um ahead and behind at the same time folks winner losers the goal of course Miss Barnes Miss sharp Miss Morrison Miss kagna is to be a winner I want all of y'all to be what it's called winners now I got this particular item again for from a student I get some of the best things I get from from students here at profess B look
• 48:00 - 48:30 um and and the person was working at Domino's Pizza you and uh they want their managers to be winners the winner is always a part of the answer differences I'm just trying to get you to understand the concept you know then we apply it you know how I do I build the concept and then we apply it later after I teach you the parts like the thesis the plan of development
• 48:30 - 49:00 attention getter and all that then we look at a student essay which probably won't come till next week at the earliest the winner is always a part of the answer the loser is always a part of the problem the winner always has a program the loser always has an excuse that's why they can't get it done the winner always has a plan or a the winner let me do it for
• 49:00 - 49:30 you the loser that's not my job the winner sees an answer for every problem the loser sees a problem in every answer see how the the difference a poem I know but look at the differences um the winner and never say that's not my job people get fired for that especially when they really is there the winner sees a green near every sand
• 49:30 - 50:00 trap the loser sees two or three sand traps near every Green it's what you perceive more often than not the loser it may be difficult but it's possible the loser it may be possible but it's too difficult which one are you well you want to be the winner I can answer that for you but there's certain
• 50:00 - 50:30 things you need to doo in order for that to happen Mr Bowers Miss Levens I missed some names there okay I did die anyway guess who two presidents one from the 20th century
• 50:30 - 51:00 John fero Kennedy and the other one Abraham Lincoln for the 19th century you know and I wrote their names at the bottom I couldn't for some reason I couldn't get all on um keny lived from 1917 to 1963 both were assassinated tragically um and Lincoln um lived from 1809 to 1865 uh Kennedy's term was 1961 to 1963 was cut
• 51:00 - 51:30 short uh and Lincoln was into a second term he lived from 1861 to 1865 now what I want to try to do yeah I got some time I hope I don't talk too fast because I want to finish this um which deals with the differences between Lincoln in U no I'm not saying that right there are differences obviously you can see the differences ilarities between John fitzg Kennedy and
• 51:30 - 52:00 Abraham Lincoln people have been they call them coincidences but have been dealing with these two gentlemen there's a whole website that deals with Kennedy and Lincoln I'm going to share it with you now while you look at the two pictures on the screen both Lincoln and Kennedy served in New US House of Representatives
• 52:00 - 52:30 similarity Lincoln beginning in 1847 Kennedy 1947 well two different years but they served in the that the US House of Representatives almost a centry apart both were elected president after they had been defeated in attempts to win their party's vice presidential nomination they were defeated Lincoln in 1856 let's
• 52:30 - 53:00 give you the historical background Kennedy 1956 they call these coincidences but I'm looking at them as similarities Lincoln was elected president in 1860 Kennedy in 1960 both were directly involved in civil rights now Kennedy the Civil Rights Movement Lincoln the Civil War h the unfairness that people had to suffer
• 53:00 - 53:30 through and still are suffering through because I read an article about Civil War last evening and they were talking about how the Civil War is still being fought number four both presidents have the legality of their elections contested that's what's going on going on right now you know uh one pres the current president is contesting the election of the next
• 53:30 - 54:00 president of the United States I'll say it that way while in the White House both had sons who died both of them tragically lost a son while serving in the White House both had wives who were criticized for their extravagant spending spre on clothes w f uh Mary Todd Lincoln wanted to be dressed in the finer of the 19th century
• 54:00 - 54:30 but Lincoln really couldn't afford it um and Kennedy's wife Jacqueline Kennedy later on nasis well they could afford it but she was criticized even though she set the fashion style for the 1960s and into the 70s one could argue both similar another one um CID Lincoln suffer from hereditary diseases that were considered incurable in their
