Instruction
Students are responsible for researching/reading information
(e.g., magazine/Internet articles, television programs, research studies)
related to their selected topic. I encourage students to read as many differing opinions as possible.
Student will write a position paper taking a stand on the event/issue –
What is your stand on this “issue” and why?
While this is an opinion-based paper, students must support their stance
and are required to think/write CRITICALLY.
Students must cite all sources following APA guidelines
and include a reference list of all articles used for this paper.
It is required that students include 10-20 references.
Due to the nature of the assignments, the references used for this paper may be from popular media
(e.g., Sports Illustrated, ESPNW, The New York Times)
as this assignment is asking you to critique popular culture.
This paper should be no more than 5 pages in length (double spaced).
