Assignment:
Objective:
You will propose a project. This assignment is designed to allow you to be imaginative and draw on your own life experiences. Making use of a 250-word proposal and 6 slide PowerPoint, you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of Course Goals 1, 2, and 3 by:
• Accurately and effectively communicate ideas, information, arguments, and messages to present material in a historical context.
• Investigate and evaluate historical information from global, social, and ethical perspectives to guide decision making.
• Applying historical precedent to contemporary roles, responsibilities, and relationships in order to advance the goals of a community or organization.
You will briefly identify and propose a solution for a problem for a community or organization. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the need or viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials.
Instructions:
Briefly identify a problem for a community or organization, and propose a solution. You should propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents from the course materials. Feel free to dream. The sky is the limit. Imagine that you could actually get the Department of Transportation to fund a light rail project to enable dog owners to get home to walk their dogs at lunch time in Los Angeles. This is absurd, of course, but it is fine to dream, so long as the problem is real and your solution would do actual good. In a 250 word summary, identify a problem for a community or organization and propose a project that would either solve that problem or increase the well being of its members. Propose sources of funding; detail the means by which you would achieve your project; and support the viability of your idea with historical precedents
