STEP 1: Review the scenario:

Imagine you represent your company at a service organization dealing with one of these two issues: Facing Economic Change or Engaging Civil Rights. Your supervisor has asked you to research information related to the history of one of these issues for your organization to help new employees and volunteers understand it better. Your predecessor already started a list of sample primary and secondary sources and collections of sources.

In this assignment, you will take the next step in creating your presentation to help new employees and volunteers understand how historical events can be applied to one of the issues currently affecting your organization.

STEP 2: Use the questions in Chapters 4 and 5 to work through the first three steps of the critical thinking process (Knowledge, Comprehension, Application) based on your sources and what you’ve learned about your topic so far.

STEP 3: Begin to formulate your explanation for your Assignment 3 presentation by answering questions in the webtext that will bring you through step 4 of the critical thinking process (Analysis) about your chosen issue. Be sure to consider the historical topic, its challenges, and the strategies and approaches people used to deal with those challenges.

STEP 4: Synthesize your findings at the end of the worksheet as part of step 5 of the critical thinking process (Synthesis).
