Milestone 3 is a draft of a power point and feel free to use the same design and setup….. with more in-depth info of course. -Please use references easily searched through an AMERICAN college library or database. -APA style 1- point font double spaced. -Topic is Globalization of Culture IDS 401 Final Project Part One Guidelines and Rubric Overview This course explores globalization and its impact on shaping the world around us. Globalization influences society, and society influences each of us, creating a feedback loop between them. We will critically analyze this feedback loop in this course through social, historical, and theoretical approaches to globalization as well as the four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. Each of these four perspectives allows us to better understand the construction of globalization and its interrelation with society. From this enhanced understanding, you will be equipped to draw connections between global society and your personal and professional lives, helping you to become a better-informed citizen who can make a positive difference in the world. Issues and events in globalization have a pervading influence on many aspects of society, and how they are dealt with requires diverse knowledge and perspectives to investigate and change. The purpose of this project is to examine a specific issue or event in globalization and how it impacts individuals and society through the development of a critical analysis portfolio and a presentation in which you will demonstrate your ability to think critically, investigate, and communicate clearly. These skills are often necessary to achieve personal and professional goals across many disciplines. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes: • Analyze the role of the individual in one’s discipline of study or chosen profession in an expanding global network [IDS-401-01] • Integrate interdisciplinary approaches for determining the effect that global connectedness has on the state of national identity [IDS-401-02] • Recommend strategies for increasing global awareness and fostering culturally inclusive discourse to meet personal and professional goals [IDS-401-04] • Assess the benefits and challenges of global connectedness through the incorporation of diverse perspectives and viewpoints informed by relevant literature and peer experiences [IDS-401-06] Prompt For the first part of this project, you will select a specific issue or event in globalization and critically analyze it through the four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. Through viewing the issue or event through these lenses, you will gain insight into how globalization affects society as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices, attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you. You will compile your analyses within a portfolio that will include an analysis of each lens, plus introduction and conclusion paragraphs. Altogether, this portfolio should be 6–8 pages long, not counting references. Within your portfolio, each analysis should be 3–5 paragraphs long. Be sure to support your analyses with appropriate and relevant evidence from theory and research. Specifically, you must address the critical elements listed below I. Introduction: For this part of the assessment you will examine the role of the individual in a global society and how issues of globalization influence aspects of culture and the individual.

Milestone Two: Analyzing an Issue or Event in Globalization through the Lenses of History and the Humanities In Module Four, you will analyze your issue or event through the history and humanities lenses. This will provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your artifact through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone Two Rubric. Milestone Four: Analyzing an Issue or Event in Globalization through the Lenses of the Natural and Applied Sciences and the Social Sciences In Module Six, you will analyze your issue or event through the lenses of natural and applied sciences and the social sciences. Like Milestone Two, this task provides you with an opportunity to dive deeper into your analysis of the artifact through these two lenses. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone Four Rubric.
