General Instructions:

Create an evocative and engaging Op-Ed that applies insights from Assessment 1 (knowledge base) to an issue or problem relating to the dignity of the human person and the realization of the common good that relates to your professional practice now and In the future (i.e., the degree program you are studying).

The Op-Ed should clearly explain to readers what the issue or problem is (in order to achieve a pass grade or better, you must choose an issue from the list above) and how your understanding of the knowledge you have acquired in the unit addresses the issue or problem and relates to the discipline area you are studying in. Please note that you do not have to come up with the 'definitive solution' but
provide a well-argued view in order to move forward on the issue.

The Op-Ed is to be no more than 700 words long; penalties will apply for assessments that exceed the word limit or which are submitted late: please see the assessment overview and instructions on LEO.

The idea is to express y&r thoughts clearly and concisely and make your argument as directly as you can — just like a journalist or writer. Do not assume that this assignment is easy given the word length. The challenge is to present a persuasive argument in a clear and concise manner.

Although Op-Eds do not usually require referencing, for this academic work correct and full referencing is required.
