The paper is an individual project where you will be focusing on analyzing core microeconomics
variables of your choice delivered in a college level format paper (look at sample in the library, online,
etc.). Propose and explain a solution for one current or future microeconomic problem of your interest.
In the other word, choose an microeconomic issue or subject that you care deeply about or offer a
solution to a problem you care about. To get ideas, check out the library, news, economic journals or
other sources.
Analyze and evaluate your solution. Be sure to explain everything in your own words. If you have any
doubt about your chosen topic, please discuss it with me before you start writing your paper.
You may NOT choose the topics that class discusses on the discussion board, minimum wage,
legalization of marijuana, minimum wage, the current legal drinking age or any macroeconomic
topic like unemployment, national debt,….. If you do, you will automatically fail the assignment.
The paper will be presented in an MLA format using Microsoft Word. Your paper should have a
name, section number, the instructor’s name and topic. The paper should be double-spaced and
Time New Roman font, size 12.

After you submit the paper, you must make sure it’s not a corrupt file
The paper must contain between 800-1200 words (without the citation)
You must include at least five scientific sources(YouTube, Investopedia, dictionary, and similar
sources are NOT a scientific source).
Use economic terminology, data, graphs,… in your paper.

To submit the paper, log in to your D2L accounts, go to “Course Activities” tab, click on
“Assignments”, click on “projects”, Click on “add a file”, “upload your paper”, Click on “add”,
click on “submit”, and then click on “Done”. Double check everything and make sure your
project is uploaded. I will not accept any excuses.
Plagiarism is NOT tolerated in my class and I have a software on D2L, called Turitin Grade Mark,
where I can check how much of the paper was copied. Students can also see what I see. Only
papers with below 25 % at the Turitin Grade Mark are accepted. Papers with more than 25%
plagiarism rate are NOT accepted and students will receive zero for the term paper.
