Write a 10-12 page essay on Discrimination.  The structure of the essay is of your choosing. You may present an argumentative, comparative (compare and contrast), persuasive, reflective, or research easy.  This is an upper-division course.  This flexibility affords you the opportunity to explore newly acquired concepts and write a paper meaningful to you (e.g., career interests, personal connections). Leverage the writing of the essay to showcase effective communication of social psychological principles and applications relevant to your selected topic. Support discussions (topics and logic) with sound research, evident through the integration of properly cited theory and facts collected from a minimum of two (2) peer-reviewed journal articles. Peer-reviewed articles are vetted for quality and adherence to editorial standards, and published in scholarly journals (such as the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology). Use the UMGC library database to find peer-reviewed articles.  It is your responsibility to make sure that the journal articles you select are appropriate. If you are unsure about the relevance of your articles, contact your instructor for approval.  Two peer-reviewed articles must meet the following criteria: Scholarly – Articles should address an original research study, meta-analyses, summary, editorial or theory. Refereed – Articles must come from peer-reviewed journals found in the UMGC library. Social Psychology Focus – Articles must be relevant to social psychology. Recent – Articles must have been published within the last 10 years.
