Week 1 Significant Sentences

NOTE:

·         ONLINE Stsudents will complete this activity via the Discussion Forum. 

BLENDED Students will complete this activity as an in-class discussion during class time.

The purpose of the Significant Sentence Exercise is to have students learn and apply the concept of “synthesis.” Synthesis is the ability to take large amounts of data and to separate, understand and communicate the “vital few” concepts that are critical.

In your work at your organizations, you will be receiving massive amounts of information. Successful people and the successful organizations have an uncanny ability to know what to pay attention to and what to ignore. In our lives and it our work it is an important skill to learn what requires our time and attention and to separate the critical knowledge from the less important.

Some people tend to have a knack for this ability to separate the critical from the interesting but not important facts. Others need to work on this skill. If Significant Sentences are easy for you, you may have a natural talent for synthesis. If this exercise is difficult for you then perhaps this is a skill that you need to hone while at Brandman University.
