Connection, Collaboration, and Community
\nAssignment Overview
\nCase 1 is an essay in which students will communicate using their own thoughts, words, and ideas to demonstrate their ability to interpret text and organize ideas. In addition, the student will demonstrate the ability to integrate others\u2019 words and ideas coherently into one\u2019s own writing, using APA Style format.
\nStudents will analyze and interpret the thoughts, words, and ideas of others, draws conclusions, and solve problems to demonstrate their ability to think critically and creatively in a disciplined and evaluative manner.
\nCase Assignment
\nThe assigned reading\/viewing background materials for Module 1 included such thoughts, words, ideas, and\/or concepts as poverty, non-profit, philanthropy, giving, happiness, charity, champion, altruism, and community.
\nSelect two or more of these societal constructs in which you see some sort of connection. For example, how is philanthropy connected to community\u2026 happiness connected to giving\u2026 or poverty connected to community?
\nIn a well-organized and well-supported essay, discuss where, how, and why that connection exists in our society today. Be sure to provide specific examples to support your point of view, perhaps your own experience in your community, at work, or through your own pursuits. On the other hand, maybe you do not see a connection between many of these concepts, while there should be. In this case, an essay might address ways in which society needs to improve as we consider ways to find connections between these concepts and societal constructs. Please note that there is no right or wrong response here, just your ability to make a point and support it using details and examples from the readings\/viewings as well as your own experience.
\nA well-organized essay has a beginning, middle, and an end. The beginning, or introduction, should include an opening sentence to grab your reader\u2019s attention. Follow the opening sentence with a brief background to introduce the topic. The last sentence of the introduction is the thesis statement. The thesis states the main point of the essay, which in this case, would be the ways in which two or more concepts resonate. For example,
\nThe principle or practice of altruism on a small (or large) scale can conquer poverty, one individual at a time.
\nThe body (middle) of the essay supports the thesis using points, details, and examples; the conclusion typically summarizes the main points of the essay and\/or closes with a lasting impression that connects the reader to their world.
\nBe sure to proofread your essay and edit for proper grammar, punctuation, diction (word choice), and spelling, as errors in sentence skills will lower a final grade. A grade will be determined based on the Module 1 Case expectations and the Trident University General Education rubric for English.
\nPapers must be double-spaced in Times or Times New Roman font (12 cpi) with standard one-inch margins.
\nWhen citing secondary source material within the essay, APA Style citations and a Works Cited page are required.
\nAssignment Expectations
\nWrite an organized and well-supported essay (no less than three pages in length) with an original thesis statement that finds connections among the concepts addressed in Module 1.
