Seven people I wish to meet here on Earth
The above title post is your group paper for your final exam. Seven people I wish to meet here on Earth. These are the stories of people, Filipino and neighbors who, despite the hardships, he/she made it to the good life or what we usually hear as "success in life". Of course the definition of success can be cognitively neutral. Success will be defined by the meaning-giver. Thus, in a 5-member comprising a group (shall not exceed and number can go down) you are to write the seven models that you would like to meet, eg. Mother Teresa can be one of them, or Siddhartha, to Warren Buffet and Bill Gates. Here is the structure: First page: Names of your models. Below are the group's complete names and class schedule. Each model shall have a short biographic sketch, or information about the person (2-pages). Answer the following: 1. What are the difficulties that the model encountered? 2. How was he/she able to transform the problem into his advantage? 3. State in highlighted form the values he/she practiced or adhered to in life, eg. frugality, studying the problem intently, problem solving attitude, honesty etc. Around 6-10 values that you can identify. 4. What do you find striking in the person? 5. In your essay use sociological terms in the narrative that you are going to write about your model and highlight them in your paper. 6. One page reflection paper on how you worked and interacted with your group. 7. Should there exist a CD copy of your model you can include them for my viewing. It will be returned at an assigned date. 9. The report should be printed on papers of 8" x 11" or short size. I shall be inside a folder using a plastic fastener. Deadline of submission is sometime on October. Specific date will be announced. Good luck!
