Post has two assignments
1:Brokeback Mountain
When stories become screenplays, information (characters, scenes, setting, etc.) is added and deleted. For your major paper assignment, read Brokeback Mountain; Story to Screenplay and view Ang Lee’s 2005 film Brokeback Mountain.
Edition that contains the short story, the screenplay, and the three author essays
While reading and viewing, take note of the differences in the literary mediums (changes and transformations from story to screenplay to film). point to specific passages and scenes, specific dialogue and relationships, and specific visual landscapes and scenery.
1. What elements do the screenwriters add to the story to give it the additional emotional dimensions required for the transition from story to screenplay?
2. How does director Ang Lee augment Proulx’s view on geographic determinism – the belief that regional landscapes, climate and topography dictate local cultural traditions and kinds of work?
3. How does the cinematography of Brokeback Mountain and Wyoming (aka Alberta, Canada) add what Larry McMurtry calls lyrical pastoralism? In other words, how do the visual images of the landscape help shape the story and poeticize Ennis’ and Jack’s relationship and reunion?
Your papers needs to be posted via our Turnitin link on our Moodle page by midnight on the week it is due!!!
Remember that the Brokeback Mountain assignment constitutes 25% of your final grade! Good luck and enjoy the story to film experience!
Helpful Hints for Writing the BBM Paper:
In your 1200 word response, make sure you equally cover the following aspects of BBM:
1. Aspects of turning a story into a screenplay.
2. Geographic Determinism
3. Lyrical Pastoralism
Mention these literary terms by name and describe them thoroughly! Oftentimes, students leave one out and/or do not mention them by name. They are explained and defined in more detail in the essays at the back of the BBM required book. Please write a balanced essay — one that covers all three requirements equally — and write in your own words, unless quoting from the book. Please put quotation marks around all quotes and page numbers at the end of each quote.
divide your essay into three parts — with headings “Story to Screenplay,” “Geographic Determinism,” and “Lyrical Pastoralism.” Each part needs to be at least 400 words in length — with specific examples from the book and/or film.

Assessment 2
Word limit: 2000 words
The purpose of this assignment is to introduce you to the concept of utilising nursing theories when assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating care of a child and his/her family.
Review the literature on a range of nursing theories. Read Broom (2007) in course reserves to gain insight into how nursing theories can be applied to clinical practice.
An example of an early theory utilised to conceptualize nursing assessment and management was Orlando’s Nursing Process, first published in 1961. From this time there have been many theories developed through to the present day with Levitt Jones (2009) Clinical Reasoning Cycle.
You are required to:
1. Critically review the literature on nursing theories.
2. Select one you consider useful to your nursing assessment and practice in paediatrics
3. Discuss how your chosen theory can provide a foundation for your clinical judgement.
4. Provide a comprehensive example of how this theory could inform your assessment of a paediatric patient and their family.
5. Use the literature to support your discussion.
