Thusday/ Friday, March15/16 Rokeach Survey

 

Learning Targets:  I can write informative/explanatory text to examine and convey complex ideas, concepts, and information clearly and accurately through the effective selection,
organization, and analysis of content.

 I can establish and maintain a formal style and objective tone while attending to the norms and conventions of the discipline in which they are writing.
                 
      I can provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports
the argument presented.

Essential Question: How do values, beliefs and 

attitudes impact advertising?

The following is the Rokeach Value Survey. The group 

on the left are terminal values; these are "end result" 

values describing what you want to get out of life. The 

second group of 18 on the right are instrumental 

values; these are the ways in which you seek to

 accomplish the terminal values.

Advertisers are keenly aware of the values, beliefs and 

attitudes posited by the responses; hence these 

influence the development of a product and its 

marketing. Note that this Value Survey effectively 

differentiates people into terms of race, sex. religion, 

occupation, political ideology and in a variety of other 

characteristics.
  
Assignment: Part 1,Thursday- taking the survey . Take your time; the more aware you are of your value system, the more awareness you have about what is being sold to you. 
                       
 Friday, Part 2- read over your terminal and instrumental values lists, making any changes. Now in approximately 250 words, discuss why you felt particular values were or were not important.

This is due by midnight on Sunday. Questions, confustion?   Use your time productively.

Below you will find  two lists of values: terminal and instrumental; each in alphabetical order.  Each value is accompanied by a short description and a blank space.  Your goal is to rank each value in its order of importance to you for each of the two lists.  Study each list and think of how much each value may act as a guiding principle in your life.

Mechanics: create a google doc document. Copy and paste the following two lists: terminal values and instrumental values. For each list number the values in the order of importance to you. So the most important is number 1, followed by 2, through to 18. 

When you have finished ranking all 18 the terminal values, rank the next 18 instrumental values in the same way.  Please do each  separately; finish one completely, before starting the second one.

When ranking, take your time and think carefully.  Feel free to go back and change your order should you have second thoughts about any of your answers. That's called reflection! This is not an easy task.  When you have completed the ranking of both sets of values, order the two lists in numerical order next to each other. How close in order are they?  The result should represent an accurate picture of how you really feel about what’s important in your life. 

                  1) copy and paste the instrumental values onto a google document
 
              2. ) read each list separately and order them from 1-18 as to how you deem them important to you; adjust as you reflect upon these
                 3.  Finally, pair of the two lists, numerically  You will needed these for tomorrow's class.
