your paper will report on a environmental issue in a country other than the united states report on the same environmental issue in the united states and compare and contrast the way these environmental issues are addressed in each country
The Global Citizens Project for this course consists of a 5-page paper that integrates insights from at least 7 (and no more than 10) peer-reviewed research articles. You will use the Broad Model of Interdisciplinary Process, following the detailed instructions provided in Chapters 10-12 and Appendix D of your textbook. Your paper will report on a environmental issue in a country other than the United States, report on the same environmental issue in the United States, and compare and contrast the way these environmental issues are addressed in each country. This Project will serve as the “final” substantive assessment in the course.
You will submit a document in MS Word or pdf format (only). To get started, I recommend that you complete the following tasks:
- Review the “General Instructions for Preparing Written Assignments” section in the course Syllabus
- Read Chapters 10-12 of your textbook
- See the end of Appendix D of your textbook (pp. 383-387) for an example applying Step 5 and Step 6 of the Broad Model
