MGTU 315 Significant
Sentence Assignments
The purpose of the Significant Sentence Exercise is to have students
learn and apply the concept of “synthesis.” Synthesis is the ability to take
large amounts of data and to separate, understand and communicate the “vital
few” concepts that are critical.
In your work at your organizations you will be receiving massive amounts
of information. Successful people and the successful organizations have an
uncanny ability to know what to pay attention to and what to ignore. In our
lives and it our work it is an important skill to learn what requires our time
and attention and to separate the critical knowledge from the less important.
Some people tend to have a knack for this ability to separate the
critical from the interesting but not important facts. Others need to work on
this skill. If Significant Sentences are easy for you, you may have a natural
talent for synthesis. If this exercise is difficult for you then perhaps this
is a skill that you need to hone while at Brandman University.
You can’t “makeup” Significant Sentences the only way you can receive
points for this exercise is if you post in the week designated in the timeframe
listed below.
The goal of Significant Sentences is:
1.
Demonstrate that you have been able to identify and defend the most
critical sentence in a chapter or a group of assigned chapters. Don’t simply
use the title – but look deeply into the chapter or chapters and identify the
one critical sentence that explains the “heart” of the reading.
2.
It is of benefit to post early in the week as each student must choose a
different sentence each week.
3.
After you have shared and cited using APA the Significant Sentence in
the assigned chapter or chapters then you are to explain in detail using 100 to
300 words exactly why you chose that sentence. You are to “defend” your choice.
Using the masters level analysis:
1.
This sentence is basically about: (30-50 words of explanation – like a
short book report on the sentence).
2.
This sentence means: (30-50 words of context – like explaining the
deeper meaning or general usefulness of this concept).
3.
This sentence means to me NOW: (50-100 words of application – a clear
explanation of how you will apply this concept in your home or work life. This
is not how you have used it in the past – but how you will use this concept in
the future.
4.
ONLINE STUDENTS ONLY:
1.
You are to post your initial posting by Wednesday of each week
2.
Then you are to respond to two of your fellow students on
their Significant Sentences by Saturday of the assigned week on two
separate days prior to Sunday (ie respond to peer 1 on Friday and peer 3 on
Saturday). Please refer to the instructions in the Discussion Board.
You are to do the
following analysis:
1.
Your Significant Sentence is very close to mine in the following ways:
(with 50 words of comparison).
2.
Your Significant Sentence is different than mine in the following ways:
(with 50 words of comparison).
3.
After reading your Significant Sentence, I have learned the following
ways to utilize your Significant Sentence in my work or my life: (Then detail
how you will apply their sentence into your live or your work).
5.
Blended Students Only:
1.
You will share your significant sentence during face-to-face class. You
may want to bring several sentences to class; as another student who goes
first, might choose your sentence so you will need one one or more back up
sentences to share.
2.
You will then engage in an in-class discussion with your peers
addressing how your sentences are similar or different and what you have
learned from each other.
