Critical Analysis of Your Chosen Technology
In addition to the topic-related content presented in your paper, the collaborative research paper should also use the following questions to critically analyze your chosen product, process, or technology. The questions can be answered either implicitly or explicitly as appropriate and in any order in the paper. Each question need only be addressed once in the paper by any of the authors. For example, an implicit response could be the description of a process, whereby the environmental risks, safety concerns, or overall effects on society are obvious to the reader. In cases where these concerns may not be obvious to the reader, an explicit discussion and/or explanation of the associated concerns should be included.
