Current Events
Current Events- 50 Points
Students will be expected to do 5 current events over the course of the semester. Current events are to be 1-2 pages typed, 2x space, and APA format. The first paragraph is a summary of a global, national, or local event. The second paragraph gives the history of the current event and not just the event itself. The third paragraph is an analysis of the article in terms of why it matters and what implication does this story have on the “bigger picture.” Articles cannot be on sports or entertainment. Weather is permitted only if it pertains to “bigger picture” ideas and not the daily weather. Article must be attached or at least the URL. Keep current events under 2 pages.
