First, select one of the disasters listed below and imagine you find yourself in the middle of in it.

Next, research images and news stories regarding the event you selected. Attempt to wrap your mind around the chaos that must have been involved.  

Finally, in approximately 2-pages (at minimum) discuss what your action steps would be if using your personal disaster plan. In your chosen scenario, consider that your family is accounted for and safe. In addition to your evacuation, is there anything else you can do to prepare your home for the disaster upon your departure? 

All written submissions should reflect professionalism in grammar, spelling, writing style/format (i.e., one-inch margins, double spaced, typed in 12-point Times New Roman font), include current APA or MLA in-text citations when appropriate, an appropriate APA title page or MLA first page, an APA reference page or MLA works cited page when appropriate, and should be uploaded as .doc or .docx documents. If your academic discipline utilizes another formatting style (e.g. Chicago/Turabian, etc.), it is your responsibility to make the course instructor aware of the style you will be following within the comments section of each assignment submission. Otherwise, the course instructor will grade your formatting according to APA/MLA standards.
