4-2 Final Project Milestone Two: Analyzing an Issue or Event in Globalization through the Lenses of History and the Humanities
For this second milestone, you will analyze your issue or event in globalization through the first two lenses introduced in this course: history and the humanities. This will provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue or event through these lenses. You will receive feedback on this practice attempt.
To complete this assignment, review the Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric PDF document.
For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select an issue/event of globalization and critically analyze it through the four
general education lenses: history, humanities, social sciences, and natural and applied sciences. By viewing the issue/event through these lenses, you will gain
insight into how the interconnected nature of 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.
For this second milestone, due in Module Four, you will analyze your issue/event from Milestone One through the history and humanities lenses. This will provide
you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue/eventthrough these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt.
Prompt: First, review the overviews and resources in Modules One through Three, as well as the Four Lenses document from Module One.
Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of history, and address the following:
How does this issue/event interact with the history lens and impact social issues?
In what ways does the history lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the global issue(s) that inform your issue/event?
Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the humanities by exploring the following questions:
How is this issue/event portrayed creatively in global society? What is the message or commentary of this representation?
How does this representation interact with you in your personal and professional lives?
Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from the history and one from the humanities. You must submit two papers in a single Word
document.
Be sure to use evidence from research to support your analysis. Refer to course resources, the LibGuide for this course, as well as any other pertinent
resources to support your responses. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor ap
