1) The most important purpose of the Global Foundations course is to develop an understanding of the concept of globalization, its application to the Middle East as a region, and to develop critical thinking skills in analyzing it. Write an essay in which you discuss the concept of globalization (its definition from the Going Global article on Blackboard). Also, demonstrate your skills in analyzing an aspect of globalization by applying the tools of analysis to two (2) of the student presentations during the last two weeks of class . Put another way, how are you a more sophisticated and analytical consumer of information about the various aspects and consequences of globalization, and show this by applying it to two of the presentation topics. This is NOT an assessment of a students presentation skills (she was a good/bad speaker). Rather, you need to demonstrate your ability to analyze and critically assess information on globalization, and use the presentations to illustrate its variety of meanings, definitions, and impacts, especially as these concepts apply to the Middle East. Dont use any outsid sources just use the file that are attached.
