Inquiry Intention Essay

IDS 101 Cornerstone Seminar has been a course that has made you think deeper in many areas. I have learned how as well as the importance of analyzing and evaluating books, and topics whether to take a position, use an analogy, discuss cause and correlation, summarize, paraphrase, quote, beginning an research paper, peer editing, developing an abstract, and using MLA or APA format just to name a few. This has been a process where I have used parts of brain that hasn’t been woken up in some time. To start off with week one and not fully knowing where to start I was pleased to reflect on myself relating it to Gladwell’s “10,000-Hour Rule” in Outliers. To see how I made connection to Gladwell’s philosophy about being successful and what it all

When I was in my Government class in high school, I took a test in class to see where in the political spectrum I was in. When I counted all my answers, I came to the bar and saw that I was in the middle but learning to the left. That was when I officially identified myself as a liberal. Before then politics were a boring stuff that adults fuss and quarrel about. After getting that title, I started looking things differently, every time I observe a political issue I would just see which side a liberal is supposed to be at and say I support it. Since I believed myself to be on the left. I never for one second thought, a sane person could be on the right. They are all crazy old white racist men was what I was told. It was not until I took a GOV

When I was younger, my political beliefs were largely influenced by my parents, and as ardently Republican as they come. My father, a self-proclaimed historian, passed his immeasurable passion for political science and philosophy on to me from an early age. Through the paradigm of conservatism, he believed in an infinitesimal government, and as most children do, I mimicked his beliefs. Until my freshman year, I held those convictions almost as strongly as he did, and t wasn’t until I began volunteering at my local hospital that I began to explore political perspectives different from the ones I had known.

A change in organization can always seem difficult for many employees, some tend to resist while others will take the negative route and complain, but only a few are open to change. Through the appreciative inquiry approach employers can focus on its employee’s individual’s strengths and values. People like to talk about success, they like to share positive stories, by using the appreciative inquiry approach, is using the philosophical approach, positive thoughts. In the organization I currently work for, we value our patients and customer satisfaction, we value teamwork. But like many organization we are going through some changes, new leadership and new ownership. Through Appreciative Inquiry many companies have

The year was 2015 and I just sat down in the 9th-grade social studies class, government. Nothing truly exciting or life-changing happened right away, we were just taught` how the government worked and so on. Then we are told we will be doing a class election but before we start working on the project, we need to learn a little about ourselves. In order to really see what we believe in we are given a couple quiz like things to see where our answers put us and I learn that most of my views would be considered conservative and at this time I really didn’t know what that meant, but I notice that a lot of my friends had the same results, they were conservative. This all made sense when I thought about it because when you are spending anywhere

I come from a liberal family. I participate in liberal groups. I voted for Hillary. Yet I am a conservative.

Growing up, I was raised in a white, conservative, upper-middle class, Christian home. At a young age I listened and asked questions to what my parents and family members were discussing when the news came on, normally politics. As I got older and started thinking more for myself I did research on what actually I was blindly agreeing with just because that’s what my parents believe. I came to the conclusion that my ideology was similar to theirs. It wasn’t until about sophomore year in high school that I started questioning every topic that came up in politics or society. Slowly my heavy conservative feeling became less. Today I still declare myself as a conservative, but not extreme and do side with some liberal views. When getting ready for this paper I came across the article “Conservative vs. Liberal Beliefs” from the Student News Daily. In this paper I will discuss my political ideologies on current day topics that are disputed between politicians and members of society.

The instructor of a shared inquiry discussion doesn’t just set up the interpretive questions that helps commence discussion, but he also moderates it’s flow. The Leaders must encourage the who aren’t comprehending, not factually accurate, or opposing claims, which is affiliated with the members answers; make sure they have evidence and ask them for more responses. If they happen to get off topic, it’s the instructor’s responsibility to make sure the member is back on take, but the instructor should direct them with a question.

Growing up, my parents seemed like two opposites to me. I was interested in politics from a young age; I remember

Ever since childhood, I knew that I wanted to be in GT/AP classes. My sister whom has six more years of life than I, were in them and I wanted to be like my sister. However, as time passed and I made many friends in the Quest Program, my main objective to join GT/AP classes were to be with my friends and in an environment where education mattered to every single one of us. This was my initial state of mind; I had yet to realize how impactful the gifted program would be in my life.

All my life, I’ve been pinned between two poles: my family and my friends. At the dinner table, I listen as my father laments that, “Republicans only care about the rich.” In the hallways, friends murmur about the latest Democratic conspiracy to tax everyone into oblivion. I’ve attended conservative parochial schools since I was three, and until I began high school, I’d never had a liberal friend. With my parents on one end and my peers on the other, I didn’t associate either side with unbridled tyranny. Still, they both have attempted to recruit me to their teams with long-established talking points.

The first challenge I encountered was selecting a topic. Since, I am in the intelligence field of study I began with thinking about the cause and effect of human nature. In thinking about human nature many questions came to mind, but identifying which question would narrowly focus the research poses another challenge.

My parents were never political people; when I was young, I never knew what political party my parents were registered as. We were not a political family, so when I was growing up my family never had political discussions and my siblings and I were never encouraged to discuss politics, in fact I remember asking my mom who she voted for in one of the presidential elections, which her response was “I don’t vote.” That was when I found out that neither of my parents was registered to vote and they were not interested in registering to vote. Years later when my mom was complaining about them increasing her property taxes, I asked her if she voted on the proposal that had been passed to raise the property taxes and her response was “you know I don’t

Political Socialization is described as an individual’s lifelong process by which they form their ideas about politics. People acquire their political orientations commonly from parents, teachers and the mass media. I would say I was influenced by my parents in my political orientation, but as I grew older my political orientation became part of my own. Like a majority of the public, my personal political orientation changed drastically while being immersed in a politically aware school: Southwest. Before going to Southwest, I was secluded in Lake Harriet, which was not a school that was aware of the political and world problems, the students were only aware about their school drama. Mass media and Southwest, common political influencers, both favor liberal ideals and disapprove of conservative ideals have also led me to the path of liberal. My first political memory was when I was in 3rd grade and I was sitting at my friends dining room table talking about the presidential candidates, which is a weird dinner topic for two 3rd graders. We argued about who we both thought would be the best candidate, I argued for Obama while she argued for McCain. I specifically remember her asking me why did I think Obama would make a great president for the United States and I remember telling her that I don’t know much about him except that he is who my parents are voting for. My political orientation was influenced by my parents, just like many of the public, very early in my
