THIS ASSIGMENT IS NOT DUE Soon BUT I NEED TOPIC soon
1.
You need to submit a typed, single-sentence statement of your problem. For the sake of clarity and simplicity, you will want to use the following format:
_______________________________________________ is a problem in the U.S.
You problem needs to be able to effectively fit into the blank. For example, “Childhood obesity is a problem in the U.S.” “Homelessness is a problem in the U.S.”
Keep in mind that you are limited to examining the social factors that contribute to the stated problem, which is why there must be a high level of clarity in the statement of problem.
