Funeral or Death ritual

Discuss how the various funerals or death rituals you have participated in (or read about) serve the purposes described in the text?  Describe what you would want your family to do at your funeral, memorial service, or some other death ritual. Write your own obituary.  Set it as far in the future as you wish, and write it as if someone else were reading it at your funeral/ceremony.  Obituaries focus on the positive aspects of a person’s life, so here’s your chance to project your goals and dreams for your life.   *** I am looking for thoughtful and self-reflective answers. This is your opportunity to apply what we are learning in class to your own life, so have fun with it! If you are unable to contact a family member or if you are not comfortable discussing these items, please contact your instructor for an alternate assignment.*** Rubric PSY 104 Reflection (1) PSY 104 Reflection (1) Criteria Ratings Pts This criterion is linked to a Learning Outcome Description of criterion 5.0 pts A Answers all of the questions References personal experiences & concepts from the text Very few grammatical errors Paper is 1-2 pages in length 4.0 pts B Answers most of the questions Minor grammatical errors References personal experiences & concepts from the text Paper is 1-2 pages in length 3.0 pts D Answers only one question Several grammatical errors Doesn’t reference both personal experiences & concepts from the text Paper is less than 1 page 2.0 pts F Discussion does not directly address any of the questions asked Major grammatical errors Doesn’t reference both personal experiences & concepts from the text Paper is less than 1 page 1.0 pts F Discussion is unrelated to questions asked Gross number of grammatical errors Does not reference both personal experiences & concepts from the text Paper is less than 1/2 of a page 0.0 pts No Credit No paper submitted 5.0 pts Total Points: 5.0 Previous Next
