Wk 7 Final Project (Writer Choice on Policy Issue)

41879Assignment Instructions
Identify another, different policy issue that impacts or interests you. This policy issue can be at the local or state level, but that you have not already submitted. Research the policy context, implementation, effectiveness, and evaluate it using the criteria laid out in your lesson (and practiced in the writing assignments). Analyze the policy, and then draw conclusions and make recommendations about the policy’s future and effectiveness. Present your findings to the class by uploading an entertaining PowerPoint briefing (minimum 10 slides with images on each slide) in Adobe Connect in the classroom. Arrange a time with your instructor to present (with other students) during Week 8.

Remember that this is a major research component of your course and worth 20% of your final grade. The presentation must be NO LONGER than 25-30 minutes. Your bibliography of sources (a minimum of 7) should be the final slide(s) of the presentation but can also be uploaded as a document within the assignment folder.

The instructor will take the presentations posted in the Assignment section for week 7 and load them into Adobe Connect for each of you to present during week 8 (visual portion). The instructor will provide the PADM conference line information to you in advance so that you can call in for the audio portion of the presentation. Please provide the instructor two or three good times for you to present during week 8. You will be grouped accordingly to have as many students as possible for each session. Special accommodations will be made for those students living overseas.

***WriteDen: PowerPoint Presentations should NOT of a lot text on the slides use the note section for the area I should read for the presentation. Slides should visually please i.e. photos, charts etc. and few bullet-points. Thank for the great work you all do!
