Assignment Log and Grading

Here's some information about your textbook and the program that supports it ...

StrengthsQuest, Gallup's strengths development program for college-age students, gives people the opportunity to develop strengths by building on their greatest talents - the way in which they most naturally think, feel, and behave as unique individuals. Grounded in Positive Psychology and the Clifton StrengthsFinder, StrengthsQuest has helped more than 400,000 students, staff, and faculty members on 600 campuses achieve academic, career, and personal success. This economically tailored program is more than just an access code or assessment. Gallup provides extensive resources, events & training, and a set of Web-based activities (an online book , your personal online journal, a discussion forum, development activities and resources, and more!). We are on the journey right along with you.

With StrengthsQuest, students can:

• discover their greatest natural talents
• improve their grades and increase their learning by making the most of their talents
• strategically determine a rewarding career path based on who they are as uniquely talented individuals
• maximize their potential for strengths by building on their talents rather than focusing on their weaknesses
