PEAR: You will write 1500-1800 words (9-10 paragraphs) in the form of a CPE chapter illustrating the
concepts of Chapter 9 of Cocktail Party Economics (The Pursuit of Happiness). You must reference 2
other chapters from CPE as well as 3 other interview podcasts (they don’t have to match the chapters in
the book). Also, you must include in your writing 2 scholarly sources (check google scholar) and 2 other
media sources on the topic you are interested in exploring. For example, you can discuss equity and
efficiency issues of discrimination, sports player’s/teams’ compensation, climate change effects, space
travel, food security, covid, vaccinations, youth employment, home ownership, seniors’ long-term care
facilities, and health care etc. Do not use the Parkin textbook as a source. Use footnotes to source your
paper (like CPE does). You do not need a bibliography. Your footnotes will act as sourcing for this essay.
Submit your draft to Turnitin (see Navbar in Courselink) and make sure your similarity score is less than
20%. You can submit multiple times to the dropbox to check your Turnitin score. Editing is an essential
component of good writing and you must submit your paragraphs to Chatgpt to get feedback. You are
then to edit your essay and submit the first draft, Chatgpt’s rewrite and your final paper to Pear along
with a short reflection on what you learned about good writing from this assignment. The PEAR link is
found on the Navbar in Courselink. Here is where you will be graded. Extensive instructions about what
your submission in PEAR should look like will be given in Courselink announcement page as we get closer
to the due date.
You will be assigned 5 essays to grade in PEAR. You cannot grade others if you do not submit to PEAR.
Moreover, if you do not grade others, your mark is cut in half. In addition, you can only receive your
entire grade if you conscientiously grade others. If grades are taken away due to substandard grading,
you will get a comment in Courselink by the PEAR grade indicating why your reviews were insufficient
(too short, too generic, to repetitive between files etc). We have algorithms that can search for this
behaviour. The comments you give for each of the three components in the rubric should be at least
100 words for each section each which is 300 words per paper. See the rubric in Courselink for what is
considered an excellent review of another essay.i
