January 24th, 2020 Humanities, Not applicable Comments Off on Leadership

Leadership

This is a short, critical reflection that synthesizes weekly readings in a thoughtful and critical way. It reflects a close reading of the work, contains specific examples drawn from the text (documented parenthetically with page numbers), and provides your analysis of the  core themes, arguments, evidence of the weekly readings. The mini-paper demonstrates that you have engaged substantively with the readings, internalized and contextualized their arguments, and can articulate and substantiate your reactions to it with specific evidence from the text.

I attached the 2 long readings and also paper instruction. I want you to read these 2 readings and write critical reflection. The instruction is very clear and helpful, so please carefully check it.

Also this is a feedback from the instructor for the previous critical reflection which I wrote. I want you to follow this feedback as well.
—-This is a fine engagement with some of the core themes from the reading.
A few points to improve on for future reflections: 1.) Focus more on your analysis and less on a summary of the content of the reading. Much of your paragraphs really just summarize the two chapters we read. As a short reading reflection, it’s okay to jump right into the analysis. 2.) It’s important to have a main idea or ideas for your reflection, and I found it hard to pull out what the key takeaway(s) was/were for you. 3.) You should ideally engage with specific portions of the readings with page numbers for reference. 4.) Don’t hesitate to use the word “I”– for example, “Reading this, I was struck by …” This will help you make clear exactly what questions or points you think are important and why.—-

January 24th, 2020 APA, Humanities Comments Off on Adapting to Cultural Differences

Adapting to Cultural Differences

According to our textbook, globalization is the increasing economic, political and cultural integration of diverse cultures. Diversity is the recognition and valuing of difference in factors such as race, education, religion and income. Are we able to adapt to cultural differences on our own? Would education aimed specifically at cultural awareness make us more tolerant of others? The study in the article below explores the concepts of intercultural education and ethnocentrism.

The purpose of this assignment is for you to explore your own feelings about these sensitive issues.
