Transformation Project
For this project, you will “transform” the research and the work you did for your literature review assignment into a 500-600 word intensely edited document.
Adapt your work for a specific, real audience of non-experts. Present a clear argument on your topic, using your main research question as a starting point.
Adapting your work means you will need to “translate” the academic writing you did for your literature review project for a sort of a Public Service Announcement (PSA) document for audience of non-experts.
Be able to simply lift chunks from your literature review assignment or cut information here and there to meet the length requirement. Think more in terms of “here is what a general audience who has not done this research should know about this topic and its importance.”
Draft a letter or a white paper of sorts that you believe will catch and hold your audience’s attention—and move them toward useful action. Focus on a single angle of your overall research or address the whole issue. Your project should be free of credibility-crushing errors.
