This essay is meant for you to link your personal experiences with the theories presented in class. You must pick a topic thatinterests you.

This assignment is not meant to be an autobiography.It is an exercise where you attempt to explain a phenomenon with your personal experience and the theories learned in class. Do not conduct interviews or participant observations in order to collect data for this paper. You do not have ethical clearance.

As a whole, this is a reflexive exercise where you analyze something meaningful to you. Your essay can also be transformative, where you present possible solutions. Through it all, you must display a good grasp on the theory. It is not sufficient to simply quote a definition in your paper, the concepts from the class must be used consistently throughout the paper.

Essay Instructions: You must use at least four articles from the course syllabus and three external sources. External sources are to be from academic journals or books (no Wikipedia etc.). If in doubt, please ask. One way to find sources is to think about what types of articles have interested you in class and look at their bibliographies. Beside the scholarly citations feel free to use news articles and other sources to support and contextualize your work.
