The Opioid Crisis in Indiana
This week, you will seek out hidden/underrepresented voices in community conversations about this issue. Try searching the web for “experience of X [underrepresented stakeholder].”
Once you have selected your source, write a discussion post that addresses the following items:
• Include the revised version of your topic statement for an argument for change in your community and identify at least three search terms you can use in the Library or an internet search engine to find sources that address underrepresented perspectives in your community that will be affected by your argument.
• Tell us about the source you selected. Using your own words rather than quoting from the source, explain how the author’s position or experience relates to your argument for change. How has this influenced your thinking about this topic?
• What criteria helped you decide if this source is credible and useful for your research? Review the learning activity Evaluating Sources and use the criteria discussed there to evaluate your source.
• Wrap up the narrative portion of your post with an open-ended question to foster conversation or help you figure out additional research opportunities.
• Finally, review the Academic Writer resource Reference List Entries and the video Formatting an APA Style Reference List and create an APA formatted references page citation for the source.
