Identify another, different policy issue that impacts or interests you. This law can be at the local or state level, but must be one that you have not already submitted. It must have been voted on by your state’s legislative branch, been approved by the executive office, and been signed into law. You will want to choose a topic that has been in place long enough that you can find data to show how effective, efficient, and so forth it is. Use credible sources. This is not an opinion paper about a law.
Research the policy context and implementation and evaluate it using the criteria laid out in your lessons (and practiced in the writing assignments). The background, context, and implementation should NOT be the focus of the presentation. Use the attached template. Do NOT combine things that are on different slides and do not delete slides.
The focus is on the analysis. Analyze the policy, and then draw conclusions and make recommendations. If it is accessible via a link, please make sure it is publicly accessible. You should include appropriate graphics on every slide or nearly every slide.
Do not just give an opinion for each detail about why your policy does or doesn’t meet each criterion. Give facts.
Your reference list (a minimum of 7) should be the final slide(s) of the presentation but can also be uploaded as a separate document within the assignment folder.
Use the attached template and add your text, graphics, background and so forth so you have a professional-looking presentation that doesn’t skip something. Don’t combine criteria. Remember, how your policy does or does not meet each one is an important part of your grade.
Do not combine or delete criteria.
