I have chosen crime to be my theme. I would like to look at the crime rates in certain areas and compare it the education and poverty level in that area. I have a degree in criminal justice and enjoy reading about crime and punishment. I feel like I am able to predict the outcome of researching crime and education & poverty but it will still be interesting to see the results. I would also like to look at what can be/is being done to help educate young people and keep them out of trouble.
My second choice would be in the health/medicine area. I would like to look at new medicines and see how the are come up with, and how effective they are. I think it would be interesting to see more in depth about the clinical trials.
Lori, those ideas seem fine for some sort of argument/exploration, do you have possibilities for personal essays and ethnographies (observation of a subgroup of people in a particular place or a profile of a representative individual that's connected somehow to the theme of crime and justice?
ReplyDeleteI don't see a problem with being able to write a personal essay or ethnography.
