Connection   to other Course Assignments

The Case Study Project is the culminating assignment, where you        will tie together all of the information and ideas from the course.

All of the reading, writing, thinking, and discussing that you        have done over the past several weeks have led up to this assignment.

Step   1: Submission (earn up to 100% of the possible points for the assignment)

Your   submission should include all of the following components:

Content

Describe a “real life” instance of your selected social issue in        a professional or a personal setting.

Discuss your perspective on your selected social issue, including        the reasons for your viewpoint.

Discuss how your core values inform or influence your perspective        on your selected social issue.

Demonstrate that you are really thinking about your issue—don’t        settle for easy answers, don’t pretend that conflicting evidence doesn’t        exist, and don’t feel that you have to take an either-or position.

Discuss the complexities of your selected social issue. For        example, do not just conclude that using academic language is always        good, or that government surveillance is always bad, or that wealth        automatically leads to health. Think about the intricacies of these        issues and how they play out in everyday life.

Organization

Include an introductory paragraph, where you clearly        outline a “real-life” instance of your social issue and you give a        thesis statement that indicates your perspective (see Part 2:        Writing Your Introduction for an example).

Include 3-5 body paragraphs where you include        details, examples, and quotes from at least three of the course readings        and two additional readings to help you develop and support your key        points (see Part 3: Writing Your Body Paragraphs for an example).

Include one body paragraph where you discuss how        your core values inform or influence your perspective on your selected        social issue (see Part 3: Writing Your Body Paragraphs for an example).

End your essay with a concluding paragraph where        you restate your thesis, summarize your key points, and leave the reader        with the “so what?” ( see Part 4: Writing Your        Conclusion for an example).

Language   Choices

As a writer, you are free to decide how you use language, keeping        the following in mind:

style: your language choices should result in a consistent writing         style that is purposeful and aligned with your goals

readability: your language choices should ensure that your ideas are clear         and easy to follow

When composing your paper, think about the conventions for        academic writing, including:

punctuation: this includes things such as recommended use of commas,         colons, and apostrophes.

word-level accuracy: this includes things such as capitalization, spelling,         word-tense, and usage.

sentence-level accuracy: this includes things such as sentence boundaries, subject-verb         agreement, and pronoun-antecedent agreement.

Take time to review your language choices after you’ve written        your essay. Think about your goals for the style of this essay and your        own writing habits (like using “text-speak,” omitting capitalization, or        writing sentence fragments). Revise as necessary to accomplish your        style and readability goals.

Reading your paper aloud is helpful technique when reviewing your        language choices for style and readability.

Sources   and Documentation

To   earn the maximum possible points on this assignment, use and cite at   least five sources:

Use and cite three of the assigned course        readings on your selected issue (language and power; freedom and        security; health and wealth). Sources from the assigned readings do        not require a reference list for this assignment.

Use and cite two more sources (course readings or otherwise).        Sources that are not from the assigned readings must be listed at the        end of the paper on a reference page. List author, year of publication,        title, and URL. Full APA format is not required for the reference page.

In-text citations for all sources should be in APA style.

These   examples show options for citing a paraphrase:

Note   that it is possible to earn a B (up to 85%) on this assignment by using only   three sources from the course readings and no reference page. To earn an A   (up to 100%) will require an additional two sources and reference page, if   needed.

Format   and Length

At the top of the page, include your name, the assignment name,        and a title that reflects your specific essay focus. (See example        below.)

Your paper should be typed, double-spaced and in 12-point font.

Your final product should be a minimum of six paragraphs (about        900-1100 words) in length. However, the quality of the content of this        essay is most important. Be sure to fully answer the prompt.
