1. My recommendation repeated in each lecture session +writing workshop

. STEP L• Identify the Issue and Frame the question (s) that addresses the issue. Keep in mind that this course is about local-global diversity. We are dealing with cultural issues. Even though there may be a debate that discusses many questions regarding an issue, my advice is that you chose one question that you think is the central question. Be clear about this.

. STEP 2: Background Information regarding the issue. There must be references for this. (MLA/APA Guide -ask the writing workshop for assistance on this). . STEP 3: Arguments Fmr. In your research, you will discover that the media, academics, non-

profitsand authors have made arguments in support of a particular policy and/or law related to the issue you are addressing and the central question you are asking. There must be references for this (MLA/APA Guide-ask the writing workshop for assistance on this). . STEP 4: Rrguments Against. There is no issue that folks do not advocate contending arguments.

So, discuss those arguments. There must be references for this. (MLA/APA Guide -ask the writing workshop for assistance on this).

. STEP 5: Confiradictions andjar Enconsistencies. "the act of saying something that is opposite or very different in meaning to something else.: a difference ar disagreement between two thrngs which means that ..." 4i1t~e~-riman-Webster-~nlir~e}. Think through, if in the arguments for and against, there are contradictions. Discuss them. There is no need for references in this section of your work. Here is where you display your analytical abilities. STEP 6 : Personal Qpinian. Here is where you express your personal view based on your worldview and/or values. There is no need for references in this section of your work. STEP 7: Policy Recommendation. Finally, you re-read your paper and advance one or more recommendations) that becomes the basis for a policy and/or law you wish to be implemented, so that the issue you discussed, can be effectively addressed. There may bean existing law or policy that you agree with or a policy or law you wish to see modified or amended. Perhaps, you wish to recommend a new policy and/or law. Remember, whatever you do must be coherent with the discussions in your paper. OVERALL STEP: Do subheads and write short sentences. It is like a road map. It will assist you to obtain coherence in your paper. It will keep your train on the rails.
