Earlier in this activity, you were asked to determine how each of the theories related to, or helped to explain change. You will now apply your learning to a current event of change.

Looking at any change event that is currently in the news, apply two of these theories and analyse how each perspective would explain the cause, need for, or result of this change. You can find change in many news stories, but examples might include a specific political change, environmental regulation, or social issue.

Your work should contain the following elements:

A summary paragraph that informs the reader about the change event that you have selected;

two paragraphs (one for each theory that you have selected) to outline how it might explain this specific event; and

A statement indicating which of the two theories you feel is a better fit when viewing this change event. Justify your selection.

Use at least two different news sources to learn about your current change event. Make sure you provide proper citations for these sources throughout your written assignment. Try to utilize both direct and indirect quotations in your writing.. Remember to be wary of any bias that might be contained in the sources you select in order to evaluate whether you believe they are worthy of inclusion.
