Current Events Blog/Discussion Forum and Response
A central component of this course is to learn about current global social problems.
Each student will develop expertise on a particular global social problem by following current events on that particular
topic/problem throughout the term. You will be able to choose or be assigned a topic/problem for the entire term. Please do your
own research about that topic/problem and know what it is and all that it entails. Each week you will write an entry (400 to 500
words) on a current newsworthy topic in your problem area. You must also blend in the new information that you are reading
about/learning about for that week or previous weeks of the class as well. There has to be a clear infusion of that material into
your blog/discussion.
This story should be GLOBAL in nature, not from the U.S.A. If you turn in one from the U.S.A., then you will receive a
ZERO for that discussion/blog. The only exception is if your home country is not the U.S.A. If then, you may use the U.S.A.
and not your home country to find information about your topic. Your goal is to become an expert on the problem for the term.
Each week you will find at least one event in the news from that week and write a summary and a brief analysis of the
significance of the event(s) and infuse the topics that we are learning in class, your readings, and/or have learned in the World
course.
Please be insightful, bringing out intersecting points with classroom material. Please DO NOT just summarize the article. There
must be evidence that shown that you know what you are talking about/ do that you need to do research over your topic area
and in the country where that weekàarticle is about. Please do not use too many quotes from the exact article2actice
paraphrasing in your own words. The posting is due Tuesdays at 11:55 pm (EST). Then, you must read the original link/watch the
original video, etc. of the discussion/blog posting for one of your classmates and respond with thoughtful, articulate and thoughtprovoking analysis to what they wrote. Your response to one classmateàdiscussion/blog is due on Thursdays at 11:55 pm (EST)
and should be at least 150 words.
You will provide a working citation (web link) to your source(s) for that week. Please include your name, the date and
time of the post, and the topic of the title of the blog. Again, list the source as a web link (URL) at the end of your blog.
That article again needs to be current and happened at least within the last two weeks. (There are several topics that
could go back one to two months, but the professor will let those students know.)
You will need regular access to a serious news source. Many online news sources, including online news databases (such as
LexisNexis) and major national newspapers, can be found through http://news.google.com or http://www.bbc.com/news. Watch
that your source is reputable. You cannot use agency reports, foundation reports, or journal articles.
Again, as a reminder, you will also be expected to comment on at least one other personàdiscussion/blog each week.
Your current events log will be posted each Tuesday by 11:55 pm EST and your response by Thursday by 11:55 pm EST.
There will be five weeks for the blog/discussion due each week starting from week two through week six.
