Research the two sides of an environmental issue to gain a better understanding of the issue and articulate a position based on the evidence.

Learning Objectives Addressed by this Activity:

• Be prepared to apply critical and reflective thinking in environmental science
• Articulate a position on an environmental issue
• Provide evidence that supports a position on an environmental issue

Description:

Prepare a position paper that includes two sides of an environmental issue with evidence that supports each side. There should be evidence (scientific, economic, social, political, etc.) presented for each side and the position you ultimately are defending should be backed by solid evidence. The final paper should be about 3 pages long (not including references). It can be longer, but quality not length of the paper (at or after 3 pages) will determine your grade.

Evaluation Criteria and Guidelines (Grading the Paper):

Paper Should Include

1. Introduction: Statement of the issue to be discussed. Description of more than one side of the issue and a clear concise position statement of the paper by the end of the introduction. A position can be either side of the controversial topic or it may be a compromise position, but it must be stated very clearly.
2. Discussion of each position supported by relevant and multiple sources of information. Consider several paragraphs in support of one side and then several paragraphs in support of the other. Or, consider several subtopics and a paragraph for and against each subtopic. In either case you should be building an argument toward your position which you outlined in the introduction.

III. Concise summary conclusion relating the issue, your position, the essential evidence that supports your position.

1. Literature cited (good number, type and format). Literature must be scientific papers, review articles or government websites (OSHA, USDA, CDC, etc.). Random websites, online encyclopedias and Wikipedia are not references (although they can point you to references).
2. Good communication (spelling, grammar, neatness, clarity, consistency of focus).
