TOPIC CHOICE: THE FOOD INSECURITY PROBLEM FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS IN THE USA

INSTRUCTIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

• In your essay, develop a plan for solving the food problem that you are writing about.
• I encourage you to include some of your own creative solutions. I’m not looking for a “right” solution; there are many ways to solve these problems, so I encourage you to share your own unique ideas.
• You may also add personal observations and even compelling personal experiences to convince readers.
• Incorporate at least 5 sources into your essay. These are the required sources:
  • at least two credible sources from Grossmont’s library database (which I will explain how to use)
  • .https://academic.oup.com/tbm/article/11/2/295/5985302
  • https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34769607/
  • at least one credible source from your google search
  • https://civileats.com/2020/07/27/college-food-pantries-are-reinventing-ways-to-feed-students/
  • at least two of the sources we have read in class:
  • “Wasted”
  • “Reducing Hunger on Campus”
  • “The Impact of Poverty, Food Insecurity, and Poor Nutrition on Health and Well-Being”
  • “Barriers to Food Security and Community Stress in an Urban Food Desert”
• Let your ideas and creativity dominate the essay rather than the research. The research is just meant to enhance what you think could be done to solve the problem you’re writing about.
• Organize your essay in a way that is easy for the reader to follow.
• Use transitions to help the reader follow your ideas, and smoothly incorporate quotations from the articles.
• Use in-text citations after any quoted or summarized material from your research.
• On a separate sheet of paper include a Works Cited page at the end of your essay that lists all of the sources you cited.
• Type your essay, and use MLA format: 12-point font, Times New Roman font style, double-spacing, and one-inch margins.
• Proofread your essay for grammar and punctuation errors.
• Submit your own work. Your essay will go through a plagiarism checker called Turn-it-in when you submit it.

Guide for Structuring Essay 3 (which should contain a minimum of 6 paragraphs.)

Introduction (1-2 paragraphs)

• Create a hook to grab your audience’s attention.
• Identify the food problem that you are writing about.
• Explain some negative consequences this problem creates in society, consequences that will appeal to your specific audience and convince your audience that this food problem is worth caring about.
• State your thesis (your ideas for how this problem should be solved).

Body Paragraphs (4-5 paragraphs)

• Include at least four body paragraphs in which you explain what you think are the best solutions for solving the food problem you are writing about, use rhetorical strategies to try and persuade your audience to adopt these solutions.
• Write about at least 4 different solutions for solving the problem.
• Here are some ideas for how to develop each body paragraph:
  • Identify in your topic sentence one of your solutions from your thesis.
  • Explain why this solution is needed.
  • Describe how the solution could be implemented.
  • Explain how this solution could improve the situation.

Optional Counterargument Paragraph (not required)

• You could also add a counterargument paragraph, and use the refutation rhetorical strategy.
  • First explain the opposing view (the counter argument).
  • Then “refute the opponent” and explain why the opposing argument is flawed, unfair, weak, or misguided.

Conclusion (1 paragraph)

• You could summarize your most important points that you want your audience to remember.
• You could make a prediction about what might reasonably happen if your audience does not adopt your solutions.
• You could end your conclusion with something very powerful, something you really want to stick in your audience’s mind.

Works Cited

• On a separate page, list in alphabetical order all of the sources you quoted and summarized in your essay and in link.
