The Big Idea: Knowing Yourself

Our big idea about the major creative assignment is "Knowing Yourself". For us, "Knowing Yourself" means being able to understand ourselves and reflect from it, through that we may change and grow. Basically, the aim of "Knowing Yourself" idea is to let students of all kinds to get to know what they're doing and then change from it. For example, bullies who often coerce students may learn that it is a bad thing to do and reflect from our project and change. Another example is a brilliant student that may reflect upon him/herself and realize that he/she can improve him/herself and the surroundings by being willing to help his/her classmates.

We chose that topic because we think that it is important for students to be able to reflect upon him/herself and change from it because no matter what nobody is perfect, and we all can improve. Our Worldview topics may help the students to reflect by questioning the major questions, understanding the attributes of God and His grace, mercy and love towards His enemies. Students may learn to practice the 4S to Hear God's Voice and receive the fruit of the Holy Spirit, etc. By doing so, the people around us could benefit from the merits it gave.

The simple ways to understand "Knowing Yourself" is to know:

• Maslow's Hierarchy & People are Equally Important
• Students may reflect on his/her maturity and the fact that everyone is created equal. From there, students may understand that mistreating other students is wrong and they are not supposed to do so.

• Bullying & Conflict Resolution
• Bullying does not result to anything positive because it is a lose-lose position. In which the bully lost his/her classmates' trust and is disliked by people while the victim is at loss because of the pressure he/she receives. In order to be at win-win position, bullying must be stopped.

• Needs vs Desire & Hunger for the Gospel
• Everyone has their own needs and they may find trouble overcoming it. By learning to be hungry for the gospel and the right way of living, we may be given fulfillment away from human desires.

• Attributes of God & Misconceptions
• God is often misunderstood as scary and punishing although He is graceful and kind. Students may reflect that there are many misunderstandings among students, but because God is merciful and forgiving, He can help guide us to overcome the misconceptions towards the others and help us and our friends to grow.

• Hearing God's Voice & The 4S
• Whenever a student is in trouble, he/she may learn to hear God's voice instead of bottling up all the troubles in him/herself. By understanding the concept of 4S, the student may be guided to learn more about God's way and truth.

• 4 Major Questions & Walking in Faith
• Every human, students too, questions the 4 worldview questions. But because of their uncertainty, they may be mislead. Through learning about faith, we may be guided through the path with Christ and seek the answers of our questions in Him.

From the above, we hope to be able to find spiritual and emotional development from the student body and people around. The worldview concepts may help the growth of the students' understanding towards the people in their lives. Because of that, we chose our topic of "Knowing Yourself".
