Food environment related to the Increase in Obesity as a Public Health Issue
Topic Description
In this paragraph you are going to define the terms in your chosen social or environmental injustice. You need to include an explanation of the issue beyond a definition but keep it to about 5-7 lines. Use credible sources in this part because you cannot make up information. The citation will go around the end of the paragraph when you are finished using information from that source. Also, you need to write formally meaning NO PERSONAL PRONOUNS (we, our, my or you). This is no place for personal opinions either so the word should or need cannot be used. Look at my full list of words and phases in my Writing Style handout that makes your writing juvenile (get/ing, a lot, huge, big to name a few). If you use them I will know you did not look at the videos and are not participating in class. NO QUOTATIONS either. Information needs to be paraphrased and cited correctly You are explaining what these topics are in an unbiased way. Look at my example about the decline in bee populations and the peer review rubric for guidance. They are both posted in the announcements.
