    This document introduces a social studies assignment exploring personal identity. Students are asked to make a list of 20 characteristics that shape their identity, such as traditions, languages spoken, religion, experiences, and personality. They then choose the five most important characteristics and create a symbolic representation of them. Finally, students explain how their five chosen aspects represent critical pieces of their identity and whether these aspects are individual or collective aspects. The goal is for students to understand how globalization may influence personal identity by first reflecting on the key components of their own identity.

    Issue #1 Globalization and Identity

    The Unexamined Life Do I Understand Who I am


    Today?
    Globalization and Personal Identity
    You have probably been asked to do an assignment about your personal identity at
    least once before during your journey through Social Studies courses.
    Why do we ask you to take a moment to think about the important parts of what
    make you who you are at the beginning of the course in Social 10?
    One of the key understandings that we will be working on learning this course is
    how (if at all) does Globalization influence who we are as individuals. It is difficult to
    think about how something like Globalization might influence who we are, unless we
    stop to think about the most important parts of our identity.

    Assignment:
    Part One make a list or draw a word web. /10
    Individually identify features and characteristics that form part of your identity. List as
    many features and characteristics as possible (minimum 20) from the following
    categories:

    Traditions - (Family? Cultural?)


    Role modeling - (who do you look up to? Who are your heroes?)
    Languages - (How many do you speak? Are there any you might like to learn?)
    Religion/spirituality (do you have any beliefs about a higher power? Life after
    death?)
    The arts - (Do you sing? Dance? Paint? Write? Do you enjoy going to see a play?
    Do you enjoy taking photographs?)
    Attire - (What do you typically choose to wear and why?)
    Relationship to land - (Farmer? Rancher? Environmentalist? Hunter? Like to fish?)
    Beliefs/values - (What are some of the most important values you have like honesty,
    helping the less fortunate? Hard work? Freedom of expression?)
    Ethnicity (What ethnicities do you have in your background? Dutch? German? First
    Nations? British? French etc )
    Experiences (Do you have some life experiences that have really impacted you?)
    Location/Geography (How does living in Canada, Alberta, or the Spruce Grove
    area impact who you are?)
    Personality (What are your strongest personality characteristics?)
    friends
    Family (Describe your family.)
    Economic status - (In your opinion is your family wealthy? Middle class?
    Disadvantaged? Does this impact your identity at all?)
    Physical features (Do you have any defining physical characteristics like being
    super tall? Short? Have the most amazing smile?)
