Section I-- Personal Definition of Success-- 1 paragraph, Approximately ½ a page (10 points) Repeat your personal definition of success from Essay #1 (Section IV, Paragraph #1). You may copy and paste or make changes. From Essay #1, Section IV, Paragraph #1: Describe your personal definition of success for your life. Be as specific as possible and offer details, e.g. describe milestones that might help you measure your success (e.g. In 2 years I will complete my degree, In 5 years I will work doing ____, In 10 years I will own my own home and start a family, I will travel to . Describe this definition in detail in one full paragraph (at least 4-6 sentences) Section II— Sources and Generalizations-- 3 Paragraphs, Approximately 1-1.5 pages (30 points) Remember Module 9 and our criteria for assessing authorities. Paragraph #1: Perform a “Google search” related to your personal definition of success. For example, if my personal definition of success is to own my own business, I might search “own your own business.” Begin your paragraph by indicating what keyword(s) you used in your search. Look through the first page of results and summarize your findings. Do the results looks helpful? What are some examples of useful and trustworthy results? What are some examples of irrelevant or untrustworthy results? Explain why you found these sources to be useful and trustworthy or not. Identify at least one key finding related to the original issue of your success. Describe your results in one full paragraph (at least 4-6 sentences). Paragraph #2: Now, instead of Google, search a library database (or set of databases). Follow this link to the main page of the HTC Library. Enter your keyword(s) into the search bar (example below). Use the same keyword(s) that you used in Paragraph #1. This will perform a search across all library databases. Your results will look something like this: It’s a great idea to “Sign In” using your Star ID so that you can see full text results. Look through the top results and summarize your findings. Do the results looks helpful? How do the results compare to the results of your Google search? What are some examples of useful results? What are some examples of irrelevant results? For the useful results, are the sources https://hennepintech.edu/current-students/library/index.html trustworthy? How would you assess this? Identify at least one key finding related to the original issue of your success. Describe your results in one full paragraph (at least 4-6 sentences). Paragraph #3: Perform a second search using the HTC Library databases, this time using a different keyword(s). Look through the top results and summarize your findings. Do the results looks helpful? How do the results compare to the results of your Google search? What are some examples of useful results? What are some examples of irrelevant results? For the useful results, are the sources trustworthy? How would you assess this? Identify at least one key finding related to the original issue of your success. Describe your results in one full paragraph (at least 4-6 sentences). Section III—Analogies--2 Paragraphs, Approximately 1 page (20 points) Paragraph #1: Describe an exemplar of your personal definition of success. You may want to refer to an example from your Workshop Essay #1, Section IV, Paragraph #2: Give examples of people who are successful according to your personal definition of success, i.e. who are people who you look up to and have achieved parts of your definition. Describe these examples in one full paragraph (at least 4-6 sentences). Note: these examples don’t have to be perfect embodiments of all parts of your definition. Instead, different examples could illustrate different aspects of your definition. Focus on one exemplar and describe how this exemplar meets your personal definition of success (at least 4-6 sentences). Paragraph #2: Think of this exemplar as an analogy argument that can help you understand your definition of success. Identify the qualities that are similar between this exemplar and your personal definition of success (at least 4-6 sentences). Section IV—Causes and Generalizations--3 Paragraphs, Approximately 1 page (30 points) Paragraph #1: Referring to the Module 8 reading “Causal Reasoning” by Matthew Knachal, summarize Mill’s 5 Methods (also see Module 8 Reading/Listening Notes pages 3 and 4). Describe the 5 Methods in one full paragraph (at least 4-6 sentences) Paragraph #2: Identify 3-4 different times that you’ve been successful in the past. What are some factors that affected your success? (for example, self-confidence, hard work, etc.). Notice how this is similar to Mill’s Method of Agreement. Paragraph #3: Using the examples in Paragraph #2, identify the factors that are the same across the examples. Then identify the factors that were different across the examples. Notice how this is similar to Mill’s Method of Difference. Section V—Conclusion—1 Paragraph, Approximately ½ a page (10 points) Repeat your personal definition of success and then summarize the connections between your definition, the related studies and generalizations in Section II, analogy in Section III and causal steps and generalization in Section IV.
