a mode of inquiry my dance and my photos, I was able to express myself
or expression using more than simply words.

Demonstrate X I believe that I have partially met this skill. I cannot think
leadership, of any specific assignments that would have challenged
negotiation, me to fully achieve this; however, I would say that I have
relational, and partially completed this skill throughout college in group
consensus skills activities. I demonstrated leadership skills in my groups as
well as negotiated with partners to agree on a common
consensus of course of actions. This is something I plan to
expand upon in graduate school as well as my workforce.

Use technological X I fully mastered this skill during my time here at SHU. I
skills to access have written countless research essays where I was
information, overwhelmed with the amount of information accessed
organize on a particular topic and I successfully organized that
knowledge, and information into a cohesive paper. The most vivid
communicate example that comes to mind is a paper I wrote for my
Foundations of Chemistry class freshman year about the
Haber-Bosh process.

Propose new X While I never actually proposed a solution to a current

solutions to issue, I have partially met this skill through some of the
current issues volunteer work I have completed. In response to the
issue of domestic violence, I held a blanket drive to solve
at least one of their problems. I helped animals who did
not have a home. I helped to organize a game night with
victims of poverty. While I have not solved any of those
issues I definitely have helped in some ways. I hope one
day to be able to make a much bigger impact on such
issues.

Express X I believe that I have excelled in this skill at SHU. I have

arguments or expressed my main points on topics through the act of
main points writing essays as well as giving presentations. Many of
clearly, in written the presentations I have given orally have been based on
and oral a paper I had previously written. My best example for this
communication was when I wrote a paper for Biochemistry on iodine and
then presented my findings to the class on why iodine is
important for human health.

Transfer X I have met this skill in the Introduction to Ethics course

knowledge and offered at Seton Hill. More specifically, I met this skill in
values into sound an assignment where we were required to watch a film
decision-making and then analyze it ethically. I participated in a class
discussion as well as wrote a detailed analysis on how I
came to my consensus based on the education I received
on making ethical decisions.

Communicate in a X I met this skill during both of the Introduction to French

second language classes that I took at SHU. I performed skits in front of the
at the class fully speaking French as well as wrote journals weekly.
introductory Every week in our journals we were required to reflect and
college level reuse both old and new vocabulary. This along with in class
speaking, I feel as though I could have a basic conversation
with a French speaking person.

Analyze the X I met this skill during my study abroad experiences. When I
impact of history, went to Italy in May of 2018, I was shocked at the
geography, and difference in culture. Prior to my trip, I also was able to do
socio-cultural research on the history of Italy, most specifically in the
dynamics on aspects of landmarks and cuisine. I learned about how the
global geography affected the cuisine and culture. The most
interactions from interesting aspect was experiencing the sociocultural
a variety of dynamics on cultural interactions. This trip taught me far
disciplinary more than a textbook could have and I am grateful that I
perspectives got to meet this skill in this way.

Analyze current X I think it is fair to say that I have partially met this skill. In
and historical Faith, Religion, and Society we briefly discussed current and
events through historical events through the lens of spirituality and faith
the lens of but I cannot think of a specific assignment or activity in
spirituality and which I met this skill fully aside from our lectures. In the
faith future, I plan to expand on this skill especially with all of the
violence occurring today. I think that viewing the issues
through a spiritual lens is what the world needs and I plan
to use that thought to expand on this skill.

Assess privilege X I believe that I met this objective in a class I took called
and oppression Sages, Saints, and Mystics. While a heavy portion of this
from the class was focused on women in religion, we also spoke a lot
perspective of of current issues today in which women were losing rights
culture, race, and being oppressed. While I cannot think of any specific
class, and gender examples of the other aspects of this skill, I can say that I
met it partially because I assess such privilege and
oppression personally.

III. Multiple Modes of Inquiry

Generate and X I believe that I have fully met this skill throughout my
analyze numerical science courses here. I have taken a heavy load of science
and scientific data classes each semester. Specifically, in the lab portion of
these classes, we generate experiments and organize the
data into findings. Almost all of the experiments we
performed required in chemistry lab required calculations
in addition to analyzing the scientific data as well. I
successfully organized all of the data into a lab report to
summarize findings.

Locate and X In Introductions to Ethics we watched the movie called

analyze “The Mission” where I learned about colonialism via the
expressive media movie. This form of expressive media gave me a new
to gain insight on the events that occurred during European
information or colonialism because I was able to physically view how the
comprehend the native people were treated. This same expressive media
significance of an also helped me comprehend how the Jesuit mission work
issue or an event functions.

Organize and X I do not believe that I have fully met this skill; however, I
manage resources think that I partially met it. I say partially simply because I
in a creative way cannot relate to a particular assignment or activity to use
to achieve impact as an example but I feel like in every presentation that I
give I organize my resources creatively. I tend to think
more on the creative side so I utilize however much
creativity I can into my work to make it interesting. This is
something I plan to continue doing in the future.

Find, evaluate, X This skill can be related to almost any course I have taken,
and apply especially the sciences. The most specific example I can
information give for this is Medical Microbiology. Every day we find
and evaluate new information and apply it to the health
care field and explain its relevance. For example, we go
over case studies after learning material to apply what we
just learned to the medical field and practical instances.

Interpret X I believe that I have fully achieved this skill during my

quantitative and organic chemistry labs. Each lab would require performing
qualitative experiments that involved examining quantitative and
information to qualitative information in order to support a hypothesis.
present a logical Specifically, in a lab where we titrated vitamin C with
argument based iodine, I had to perform the titration and evaluate the
on supporting qualitative results to determine the quantitative value of
data vitamin C in 2 separate solutions.

Demonstrate X I met this objective in my ethics course at Seton Hill
ethical decision- University. Throughout the course, I was able to evaluate
making situations of ethical importance and view such situations
grounded in through the eyes of a philosopher. For example, we
philosophical discussed the scenario “If someone is drowning and you
inquiry cannot swim, are you expected to save them?” and we
would discuss how that should we answered according to
ethical guidelines.

Apply Catholic X I met this through my social action project completed in my

social teaching to Senior Integrative Seminar course. I completed a blanket
the analysis of drive and donated to the Blackburn Center. This project
contemporary met the aspects of Life and Dignity of the Human Person,
social issues Rights and Responsibilities, Call to Family, Community, and
Participation, and Option for the Poor and Vulnerable.

Recognize the X I met this skill in Faith, Religion, and Society. I was required
value of diverse to write an essay on a specific religion, which I chose
spiritual and Judaism. I was to compare this religion and their traditions
religious to those of my religion, Catholicism. It was meaningful to
perspectives view the similarities and differences between the two
diverse religions.

Integrate the X I have met this skill throughout my charity work with the
practice of Light of Life Rescue Mission. I was able to give back to
charity with the people who are suffering from poverty and I was able to
skill of justice give justice to these children by allowing them to have an
Easter dinner and also receive Easter baskets like other kids
get to.

Exercise X I met this skill during the fist bump for Sage’s Army. As a
responsible freshman I was able to participate in breaking a world
freedom and record for the world’s longest fist bump chain. This was
civic done to raise awareness for drug abuse and addiction. As a
engagement community, SHU came together to bring about awareness
based on an based on an informed value system.
