Story of Self narrative draft

Story of self draft:  Story of self tells of key formative experiences, including the culture and core relationships which shaped you, “communicating the values that are calling you to act.” Story of self is built around one or two key “choice points,” moments of large consequence when you and/or your community faced a challenge of some kind, made a choice based on core values, experienced a consequence, and learned something of basic importance – “a moral.”

• Write a few notes on your life, your family and culture, your growing up, your education or early work.
• What one or two key experiences of challenge forced you and/or your community to make a choice? Be as concrete and specific as possible. Remember, each story of self is unique – yours alone.

Grading will be based on: quality of content and detail of reflection (5 pts), clarity of writing (3 pts), grammar, punctuation, and spelling (2 pts)
