Should grade 12 university English be a requirement for entry into all university programs?

I believe that grade 12 university English should become a prerequisite for any university course. I think that every university student having grade 12 university English would be very beneficial for both the students and the teachers.

As stated before having this basic English education would not only help for any mandatory English courses but for all university endeavours. A quality English education also teaches you how to take quality notes and how to successfully write down your ideas or thoughts in correct presentation or form as many courses will require well written responses to questions.

Making grade 12 university English mandatory will also help students get all the requirements for courses with less confusion. Some students may think their field of interest will not require university English in grade 12 however many courses do require English and this can result in a successful student not getting the university course they wanted because they did not think that the field they were interested in needed a high level of English education.

For theses reasons, I believe that grade 12 university level English classes should be a mandatory requirement for all university programs. This requirement will greatly benefit the student by increasing their success in any university class they may be taking, regardless of if the course is related to English or not. This requirement will also allow universities to be confident in their students English abilities.

Archetypal literary theory in the first 2 thirds of George Orwell's Animal Farm.

Now that I have read the first two thirds of the book or up to chapter 8 I am now applying archetypal literary theory to this book. At this point in the book many bad things have begun happening to animal farm with the consensus government being replaced by a dictatorship run by the pig Napoleon who chased his only other political rival (Snowball) off the farm. This blog post will be about all the different archetypal patterns displayed throughout the story up to this point. As there seems to be no main character and the book revolves around the entire society the main archetypes are those of the individual characters within the society. These archetypes are mostly very basic but because many of them are so different from each other they add together to form a very realistic group of personalities. They include archetypes such as the trickster, the greedy pig and the hard-worker. The pig "Squealer" who in the book acts as the trickster as he is brilliant with words ...

Star Wars is a remix

Star Wars is a brilliant and original creation however, it still used many elements and scenes from other different movies and television shows at the time. This is shown and described wonderfully in episode two of Everything is a Remix  when the video shows specific examples of scenes in Star Wars that draw heavily from other films. The beginning of the proof that Star Wars is a remix comes from common archetype that it follows. This archetypal pattern is of a hero who goes on a quest and completes specific tasks along the hero’s journey. There is an abundance of films that follow this pattern and are in this archetype. Whether the creators planned for it or not many of the same overall plot points or details that are explained in the book The Hero with a Thousand Faces written by Joseph Campbell can be seen in so many different stories. Secondly as the video points out there are many different scenes that can be traced back to previous creations made by other people. Inc...
