Points to consider:
This is your story, your maze and your perplexity! This assignment allows you a glimpse into your own flaws as well as perfections. Take it seriously and, at the same time, have lots of fun with it. It is, after all, about you, your thoughts and your emotions. I hope you have enough interest in yourself to explore and discover your own thoughts and emotions. You are to answer all of the questions.
As always remember that language is the art of persuasion. So your task is to convince me that you understand the materials and are able to convey whatever your position may be regarding the tales and or the prompts.
Respond to each question and sub-question separately. Make sure to first write out the question (copy/paste) so that the instructor can clearly know to which question you are responding.
TIPS ON HOW TO GET A GOOD GRADE Note on your writings • Be mindful that the posted materials on Canvas cover a lot of philosophical and religious territories. • They have been laboriously created by the peoples of each land and protected for thousands of years. • They are profound and dense and have for thousands of years been a GPS to life, or a map towards living a more meaningful life. • Though they do not fetch much respect in the modern world, they still deserve your careful study and understanding their world view. Therefore: • Stay away from plagiarized thinking. • Stay away from rushed and superficial responses. • Stay away from book reporting or copying and pasting. • Make sure your responses have depth and substance. • Make your responses are engaging and creative. • Make sure that you demonstrate the practicality of these ideas by inserting them into your own daily life and life experiences. • To better understand these ideas, provide examples from your life within the context of the subject materials Note on how to improve your writing Your writing is an expression of your thinking. Thinking can either be reactive or reflective. Reactive thinking is rooted what others have given you. This is important to have, especially in every young adult life as they are necessary tools that help navigate the various complexities of life. However, such thinking is simply parroting back ideas with little to no understanding which ultimately leads to forming many assumed and biased-laden ideas about the world and its occupants. This is plagiarized thinking and the tragic fate of many adults, professional and otherwise. Reflective thinking is the outcome your own struggle to truly want to understand the grand puzzle or pieces of the grand puzzle called Life. This form of thinking contains depth, substance and intense emotions. In the world of philosophy it is called: Wisdom—as the Greek would say, “A gift from the gods.” Reflection is an outcome of quietly examining and observing an idea or a set of ideas, or a series of feelings and emotions in order to be worthy of insights. To do this, you must first become interested in such a task because it is so enormously difficult. This you do not because you want to improve your grade, but simply because you wish to refine your thinking process, your reflective abilities, and the manner you observe the world around you. And, ultimately, because you wish to understand and refine yourself, your life and the interpretation of your life experiences. This requires much time and patience—at least, ten-to-fifteen years of serious and honest practice. Once you have mastered the art of thinking, your writing will then gradually improve.
