Research Paper: Students will complete a comprehensive, 7-10 page research paper expanding upon an issue of interest related to our theme of the quest for the American Dream. In previous assignments, students defined the American Dream and argued on its attainability. This project will allow students to continue or change their argument based upon legitimate evidence/data. Students can focus on issues related to employment, education, housing, immigration, healthcare, federal, state, or local laws, etc. Use of this thematic focus will enable students to develop a deep understanding of one aspect of pathways and barriers to the American Dream while mastering the process associated with composing a large research paper.
