Please choose the topics in each chapter you feel are most important for you personally to remember. Stamps are not given before or after the class period it is being discussed. Stamps indicate you have completed the preparation. It is not a grade. Activities without a stamp will not be graded, and receive no points. Do not hand in activities without a stamp. Doing so reduces your score 5 pts. @ Class folders are handed in and graded at the end of the quarter. If folders are lost, you do not have the stamped activity, so you will receive no points for the missing stamped activities. I suggest you make a paper copy (with the stamp) and keep the original in a safe place. Type your answers single-spaced. Handwritten answers are not stamped. Grading is based on: 1. Does each section have an answer? 2. Is it at least one page (with one inch margins)? 3. Does it appear significant thought was put into your answer? 4. Each part receives a maximum of 4 points, for a total of 40 points. Objective: The idea of this folder is to help you think about and apply the ideas to yourself and understand how other students see them. The discussions are a time for critical thinking and application, not memorizing information. These are not graded like an essay exam. Grades are based on my judgment of the time, thought, and effort put into your answers. More detail, more specifics, greater mention of the topics in the text and how they apply to yourself, along with more discussion notes added to your answers all increase your score. Number of topics: Chose at least two topics to discuss for one half a page each (one inch margins), for a total of one page. If you prefer to discuss more topics, with less per topic, to create your one page, you may do so. How to find things that affect you: 1. Look at the chapter diagrams, power points, “Do you remember?” questions, study guide questions, and the text to find topics that may affect you. It is best to think about this while you are studying or listening to the video lectures. How to discuss what the topic is: 1. Look to the lecture videos, dictionary, your text, or the internet to tell me what it is you are discussing (e.g. capitalism), or give examples of items that may be more difficult to define (e.g. changing social ideas). How to discuss how it affects you: 1. Think about your daily life, job, money, family, religion, friends, attitudes, values, beliefs, feelings, news reports, and other topics that affect you. 2. Think about why you think and behave the way you do. 3. Think about what social forces cause you to do what you do, or create the choices you chose from. 4. You may use hypothetical situations, such as, “When I have children I would …”, or, “As a Boeing worker …”, or “When I have money to invest, I would be influenced by …” 5. You may look to the future, such as, “In the future I expect I will … because…”. How to create critical thinking questions: 1. Think about questions that compare or contrast two items. 2. Think about the source of your information. Is it credible? 3. Think about other possibilities or explanations for the same thing. 4. Think about opposing perspectives or views to consider. How to answer why this is a good critical thinking question: 1. Explain which item above it is based on, or how it creates more in depth thinking.
