Marine Policy Project paper
There are 4 PARTS to this project. Attached is a PDF with the exact details as to what is expected.
Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Please submit everything via a Word document.
Part 1 –
IDENTIFY THE ISSUE
Submit your proposed issue, explain why you chose it, and why it is important. Max: 1 page, doublespaced, and include at least three (3) preliminary research sources/references (full citations following APA style format).
Part 2 –
RESEARCH DOCUMENT
Research and produce a concisely written 3 – 4 page paper on your chosen topic. The research paper should include at least 3 primary scientific sources that are properly cited using scientific citing formats (APA), for both the text and bibliography.
Part 3
IDENTIFY THE “TARGETS” FOR LETTERS OF APPEAL
You are required to submit a list of at least 3 “targets” with a brief explanation of why you chose each individual, including their relevance to your issue, policy position, and any personal connection you might have. For full credit on this assignment, it is expected that you include specific names of an individual within each target organization, and a full address (mailing address that is, not email) for each target.
Part 4 –
LETTERS OF APPEAL
Compose ONE letter, no longer than 1.5 page single spaced, single sided, with one inch margins that is each a concise summary of your research paper. The trick here is to condense all the information included in your research paper to a length and clarity that the recipient can easily follow and digest. Clarity is most important! You no longer have to include your scientific
notation, but should include references if they support your main point.
