SWOT Analysis

You will complete one Forum for each Lesson. Each Forum will be worth 30 points. You will receive 20 points for your original forum post and 5 points each for your two peer posts. For the original post, I expect two good paragraphs, a good paragraph being 8-12 sentences with unity, coherence, and authentic reflection. Your two peer posts should be one good paragraph each.

Assignment Directions:

In this forum, discuss some weaknesses and strengths you possess as a communicator and as a critical thinker.

First, discuss the way and style that you communicate with people. Do a little analysis of your communication style and talk about the successful things for you in the way you communicate and also some of the shortcomings that occur with your particular style. What one thing would you like to improve in your communication style?

Finally, consider your strengths and weaknesses as a critical thinker. Use the “Cognitive and Perceptual Errors in Thinking” (pages 119-129) and the “Social Errors and Biases” (pages 130-134) sections of the text to inform your response. What areas are your strengths and in what areas do you need to improve?

For “A” work in your Forum, did you:

Write two full paragraphs (a full section being at least 8-12 sentences) for your original post.
Write one full paragraph for each of your two peer replies.
Proofread your writing to make sure it is unified and coherent.
Revise your writing to make sure it is free of grammatical errors that detract and distract from your ideas and thoughts.
Respond with sincerity and civility.
Speak from an authentic and interesting voice.
