Remember, as a reporter or Department of Justice investigator, you are using your critical thinking and information literacy skills to assess an ethnic, racial, gender, or class issue causing problems for and affecting a specific community or group of people. Your goal is to provide both an in-depth analysis of and put a human face on this issue by writing an article or report that will be presented at a professional conference.
Preparation
You will continue using your critical thinking and information literacy skills to research and write about an important ethnic, racial, gender, or class issue affecting a specific community or group of people. Your goal is to provide both an in-depth analysis of and put a human face on this issue.
For this assignment, you will write the second part of your article or report, focusing on proposed changes (or changes already implemented) to help solve the community′s problems. You will consider the benefits and challenges of those changes.
Incorporate the feedback you receive on both parts of the article or report from your instructor as you prepare for your final assignment–the slide presentation due in Week 9.
