ONLY FOR MICHAEL SMITH

World View Chart Assignments.  

A world view is a fundamental or basic orientation of thinking – like a mindset – which guides a culture and / or a person’s life. Like a point of view, it can be built of concepts, ideas, values, emotions, and ethics. Weltanschauung is the German word for this idea. Your goal for this course is to understand the world views of these various religions. In order to prepare you for your final assignment, you will outline the world views of various religions in the chart below, adding to it each week.

Please note: you are required to write full sentences, with correct grammar, etc., as for any paper. This is NOT just a chart to jot or paste notes into for the final paper. You may use it to write the final paper and the better you do now, the easier that assignment will be. Read the instructions carefully. You are to use APA style for in-text citations and for the full reference for each category/chart.

When there is more than one religion, you should do a chart for each one or a combination chart on the two religions in that week. One of the templates says ' one religion per chart' so some students pick one of the two. You need to write information about each religion, except Zoroastrianism.

For each weekly submission:

1. Review the weekly lectures and supplemental materials provided, then complete the chart by elaborating on each section related to the weekly content.

2. Identify key details and examples from the weekly resources to serve as a basis for the content being recorded in your chart.

3. Write clearly and coherently using correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, and mechanics
