Hi, I'm Mariya, a Student from Indiana.

General Studies Portfolio 

This research assignment from my multicultural studies course about the Inuit of the arctic,  makes a good option as an artifact for my general studies portfolio, it allows me to showcase my knowledge of information literacy. What makes this specific paper stand out is my ability to find and apply research with resourceful information as shown in the artifact.

This artifact is an essay I wrote concerning animal rights. I believe that this is a good addition to my portfolio. This specific essay is from my introduction to ethics class I took last year here at Ivy Tech. I believe that this is a good artifact for the topic of Ethical and responsible behaviors, because it discusses the ethics of animal rights and beliefs.

This artifact for political, social, and environmental responsibility is a research essay I wrote about homelessness, and how the government can put more money into programs that help the homeless. This essay is from my Rhetoric and Argument class I took earlier this semester. I believe this is a great example of a social, political, and environmental cause that will represent the topic well. It has elements of every point in the topic that will surely show the viewer my knowledge of political, social, and environmental responsibility. 

 These three artifacts are detailed examples of my knowledge of diversity. The diversity project is from my multicultural studies class. I believe it makes a good addition to the portfolio, being written in its entirety about the subject of diversity. The discussion is from my introduction to ethics class, and shows my thoughts and opinions when faced with a statement that contrasts how I feel about diversity. The other artifact is a support network project from my multicultural studies class, that I believe showcases my knowledge on diversity as well.
