Carefully review the blog guidelines and grading rubric before you begin. Examples of social problem topics are included in the guidelines on the course menu.
Introduce your topic and the community of your choice. Give a description of the social problem, and include the statistics to provide significance of the problem. Why is it necessary to make changes? (Paraphrase and cite Massey where appropriate, no quotations!)
Lay out a plan for change. How do you see the best course of action for making changes? What specifically do you think needs to be done? What do you think will be difficult to overcome, and what can we do about it? Are there organizations already helping, and what would be most helpful? (Paraphrase and cite Massey where appropriate, no quotations!)
Provide a conclusion that wraps up your summary and plan and provide ideas for future involvement. (Paraphrase and cite Massey where appropriate, no quotations!)
