federal government or any social issue that you care about.

 

Your assignment needs to: (1) examines a social, political or cultural “hot topic,” identifies and explains the problem, 

(2) explores multiple causes of the problem, and 

(3) ultimately proposes a solution. 

No doubt you already have an opinion on certain issues, but this assignment must be research-based. In other words, you should locate sources, read, think, and THEN form your opinion in your conclusion. 

Guidelines for writing your assignment

Your assignment must at least be 700 words, 3 full pages long with at least 5 references.  The assignment must also include a cover page and reference page, making it 5 pages. Page 1 should examine the problem, page 2 explains the cause of the problem, and page 3 proposes a solution. Use an APA format to write the assignment

Note: Be mindful of plagiarism. I use Turnitin for plagiarism detection. Plagiarism earns your an automatic zero grade and possible referral for academic discipline.
