IDS 401 Milestone Three Guidelines and Rubric
Globalization, You, and Society
Overview
For the second part of this project, you will develop a multimedia presentation in which you will have a chance to reflect on what you have learned about your
issue or event, yourself, and globalization through analyzing its impact on society. You will also be able to apply your communication skills and integrate
multimedia elements to communicate your message to an audience
In developing this presentation, you will be able to use your analyses from the first part of this project as a starting point. The reflective nature of this activity
prompts you to dig deeper and consider the implications posed by the critical analysis of your issue or event in globalization. How does studying globalization
affect how you understand yourself as well as the world around you? You’ll also be challenged to incorporate a dash of creativity to enhance your message.
Multimedia Presentation: For the second part of the project, you will create a multimedia presentation that incorporates audio narration and visuals to
articulate how critically analyzing your issue or event in globalization impacts your own framework of perception and ability to constructively engage in society.
PowerPoint: You are required to include a combination of text and visuals in order to support your PowerPoint presentation. Use the Check File Compatibility
With Earlier Versions and Are You Having Video or Audio Playback Issues? resources to help you check compatibility between versions of Office. Also, follow the
instructions on the Microsoft Support page to compress your presentation as a zipped file. You may upload a zipped file when submitting this assignment.
Reducing the size of the PowerPoint presentation file by compressing it makes it easier for your instructor to download and grade.
Microphone: While it is not necessary to purchase a microphone for this project, you will need to have access to a microphone to record the narration of the
presentation. This could be the external microphone of your device, a set of earbuds, or borrowed from a friend. This assignment is graded on the content of
the narration, and not the quality of the recording.
Prompt: First, review the module resources you have encountered so far and create a presentation draft (PowerPoint with speaker notes) that analyzes the
issue or event under study, the one you selected in Module Two.
Specifically, the following critical elements (which align to the critical elements required of the final presentation) must be addressed:
I. Issue/Event: For this section of your presentation, you will introduce the issue/event and how it relates to issues of globalization and any of the topics
that have been discussed in the course.

i. What is the origin of the issue?

B. Using appropriate research strategies, describe the impact of the issue or event on society.
i. Whom is impacted by the issue?
ii. What is important to know about them?
C. Using relevant research or diverse perspectives, assess how society impacts the chosen issue.
II. Yourself: This section of your presentation explores how studying globalization influences your individual framework of perception with respect to your
discipline of study or profession.
A. How has critically analyzing your issue/event in globalization informed your individual framework of perception? Consider how it has altered the
way you perceive the world.
B. How can critically analyzing globalization influence your field of study or profession? How can studying globalization inform your understanding
of the next big topic of study in your field or profession in the next five to ten years?
III. Society: This section of your presentation explores how studying globalization enhances your ability to engage constructively in society.
A. How does critically analyzing globalization add value to how you interact with people and understand social or global issues or events?
Supplement your reasoning with examples.

everyday life? Consider how globalization can be used to address the day-to-day responsibilities or questions faced by practitioners in your field
or discipline.
IV. Conclusion:
A. Using relevant research or diverse perspectives, assess the benefits and challenges of addressing issues in globalization.
B. Explain how critically analyzing globalization adds value to interactions with people in personal and professional contexts.
V. Presentation: Throughout your presentation, you will be assessed on your ability to use effective communication skills to deliver your message to your
audience.
A. Construct your presentation in a way that ensures the audio and visual elements are logically organized in order to convey your message to your
audience.
