HUM101 Module 8: Portfolio Project (Final) | Homework Writings Help
Can you help me understand this Social Science question?
The following question is worth 300 points, or the majority of my final grade. Again this professor has been very difficult to work with and grades strictly off of the rubric. (100 level class with 500 level expectations) It is due no later than the 4th of Aug. at 12am. But would like to review it on the 2nd of Aug., giving time for any revisions.
Please let me know if you need any additional information to get started on it.
Thanks again!
Option #1: Critical Thinking Paper on Issue or Problem
Select an issue or problem that you wish to investigate critically. Formulate a question or thesis (Links to an external site.) on the issue so that your research has a clear and cogent direction.
Use Paul and Elders (2012) intellectual standards to find a topic or problem that is clear, relevant, significant, and precise.
Now, write a paper that addresses the problem or issue via scholarly sources.
Your paper should include the following:
- Title page: include your name, date, title of essay, and class
- Introduction: provide a two-paragraph introduction (Links to an external site.) that frames the issue or problem carefully
- Engagement with issue or problem using scholarly sources and the intellectual standards proposed by Paul and Elder (2012): What is the issue? Why is it significant? Why is this issue relevant to you (and/or your community)? What have you learned about the depth and breadth of the issue or problem from scholarly sources? How do the scholarly sources aid you in fair-mindedness and logic?
- Conclusion (Links to an external site.): Reflect on your issue or problem and how the sources informed your thinking. What have you learned? How can you apply the intellectual standards and elements of reason to this issue or problem to come to creative solutions? What critical questions remain?
- References
- Journal Submission. Each module lecture contains a section with journal prompts that focus on reflection and application of the module content. Use the Journal Template to record your answers for each modules prompt(s). Include these entries at the end of your Final Portfolio.
Details
- Cite all claims and ideas using scholarly sources. While it is acceptable to write in the first person, be sure to cite your sources to support your inferences.
- Your paper should engage a minimum of six scholarly sources that are not required or recommended readings for this course. The CSU-Global Library (Links to an external site.) is a good place to find these sources.
- Your paper should be eight to ten pages in length and formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing & APA (Links to an external site.).

Option #2: Annotated Bibliography
Select an issue or problem that you wish to investigate critically. Formulate a question or thesis (Links to an external site.) on the issue so that your research has a clear and cogent direction.
Use Paul and Elders (2012) intellectual standards to find a topic or problem that is clear, relevant, significant, and precise.
Now, construct an annotated bibliography (Links to an external site.) that addresses the problem or issue through scholarly sources. See this example (Links to an external site.) for a good overview of how an annotated bibliography should be
constructed.
Your annotated bibliography should include the following:
- Title page: include your name, date, title of annotated bibliography, and class
- Introduction (Links to an external site.): provide a two-paragraph introduction that frames the issue or problem carefully
- Annotations (Links to an external site.): Summarize the main point or arguments of each scholarly source. What are the main arguments? What is the point of this book or article? What topics are covered? If someone asked what this article/book is about, what would you say? After summarizing a source, it may be helpful to evaluate it. Is it a useful source? How does it compare with other sources in your bibliography? Is the information reliable? Is this source biased or objective? What is the goal of this source? Each annotation should be roughly one or two paragraphs in length.
- Conclusion (Links to an external site.): Reflect on your issue or problem and how the sources informed your thinking. What have you learned? How can you apply the intellectual standards and elements of reason to this issue or problem to come to creative solutions?
