Assignment:

Reference Citation

• Characteristics of gritty and resilient people. (2020). Curriculum Review, 59(7), 6. You will be creating one paragraph that answers the following question written just in the third person:

• Of the listed characteristics related to grit and resilient people, which one do you view as the most important?

Your writing should be done in third person (he, she, they, one, it, people) and not use first (me, us, our, we, my, I) or second person (you, your). Most academic writing is done in third person rather than first or second person because the writing is more objective.

The article above provides you with several characteristics related to grit and resilience in people. After reading the above article, you will write one paragraph that asserts your objective and clear position answering the above question. In the paragraph, if you directly quote one of the characteristics, then please use quotation marks, the citation (Characteristics of Gritty and Resilient People, 2020, p. 6), and the above reference citation on the last page titled References.

Example of a Sentence in First Person

I believe the most important characteristic of grit highlighted in the article is the need to be self-aware.

Example of a Sentence in Third Person

The most important characteristic of grit highlighted in the article is the need to be self-aware.

The key to this assignment is to make sure that the seven-to-nine sentence paragraph you write only has one topic and includes sentences to support that topic. The topic for the paragraph should be the specific characteristic of grit you selected. The rest of the paragraph should explain the reasons why you think that characteristic is the most important one.
