The second stage that focuses on some specific aspect of a social problem should be 4-5 pages long and contain at least 4 sources.
Stage 1 must accompany stage 2 or you will be penalized. Rework stage 1 if necessary (if your comments noted that the literature review was undeveloped or lacking).
The second stage/discussion will address a specific significant issue or set of issues about the social problem you wrote about in stage one. So, for example, if you are looking at the broader topic of environmental social problems (stage 1), you would now narrow down your focus and address a specific environmental problem such as air pollution, environmental disasters (fires, floods, etc.), or water pollution. If you had discussed drug addiction or abuse in your first paper, you might focus on a specific type of addiction/abuse, such opioid addiction or alcoholism. Find several more sources (4-5) that specifically address the narrower focus of your topic. Present some information about why and how this focus constitutes a specific social problem (in relation to other aspects of the larger social problem or in relation to other, different social problems). You might also discuss what is being done to address this specific social problem.
Instructions: Add your stage one paper you already completed to this assignment and then begin your stage 2 (with a section heading like “Part II” or “Stage 2”). The second stage that focuses on some specific aspect of a social problem should be 4-5 pages long and contain at least 4 sources.
So, this is how the paper should be organized:
-Opening introduction of the topic and review of sources and how they tell us about central themes of the topic (Stage One)–what you have already done
-Part II of the paper that examines a specific element or concern of the social problem (Stage 2)—your specific focus and new analysis
-References or Works Cited section that lists all sources from stage one and stage two sections. Proper format like APA (not just web links).
