Your final major project builds on the work you did for the first two. You will propose a solution to the community-related problem. To make an effective proposal, you will need to identify all the audiences who have a stake in the issue, so you can provide the necessary persuasive evidence. You will have to present a strong, well-researched argument to convince your audiences that your proposal should be adopted and implemented. In the process, you will learn more about addressing particular audiences for particular purposes and to practice making claims with supporting evidence. You’ll also get to learn to write an abstract.
Provide evidence from at least three peer-reviewed academic sources to support your argument for this particular solution. Use APA style formatting and documentation.
Include an abstract. (see pp. 111-113 in LSH)
Audience: as identified by your Audience Worksheet
Purpose: to argue for a solution to a problem in order to convince a specific audience to accept and implement your solution
Scope: 1000 – 1200 words (no more, no less) [NOTE: Your title page, abstract, and reference list do not count toward the minimum word count.]
