Discussion
The first thing you will want to do is start identifying some potential topics for this assignment. Remember, the more specific, concrete, and actionable the topic, the better it will be for this assignment.
Specific: What policy is it you are identifying? Is it a company's policy? Is it a government policy? (Municipal? County? State? Federal? Branch of a government?) Is it an organization's policy? (A school? A nonprofit? A non-governmental organization?) Essentially, WHO is your audience that you would need to convince to do something differently?
Concrete: Are the reasons for changing this policy capable of being illustrated with specific material evidence (i.e. data)? Or are the reasons for changing this policy based on values and feelings? (i.e. supported by less concrete evidence).
Actionable: Is there a reasonable and realistic alternative to the current policy? Are their financial or logistical or time-related obstacles to realizing this alternative?
The goal of this discussion is for you to analyze potential topics, so you can make an informed decision about your project. Try to come up with at least potential topic. Ideally, you could do this for several topics to see which will work best for you.
