Answer the following: The response should be between 400–600 words.

• Which of the author’s areas of focus impacted your stance? (Provide detailed reasoning to support your stance)

Minimal Requirements for Case Study Responses:

• Identify the key and underlying issues (This is not a simple listing, but more of an in-depth analysis on how these apply to the concepts and theories you have learned within this course)
• Develop the key facts to support the issues (This will require some thought with the expectation that you will only list pertinent data)
• Discuss the solution to the problem and how to implement this to become more effective (This is an analysis of the problem within the Case Study; make efforts to support your solutions with references from the textbook, readings, or other sources)
• Demonstrate that you understand the topic and data by linking the theories and concepts highlighted in the textbook with your case study response
• All sources must be cited in APA format
