In this week’s readings and Learning Activities, you focused on choosing a topic, narrowing it down, and crafting a thesis statement. For this week’s Discussion, respond to the following questions in at least two well-developed paragraphs:

• Tell the class about a community issue that you have some knowledge of and would like to try and improve. Who are the people in your community most affected by this issue (key stakeholders)? Who in the community is in the best position to bring about a change? What challenges have kept them from solving this problem already?
• Share your preliminary thesis statement.
  • Share the thesis that you created in the “Writing Your Problem-Solution Thesis” Learning Activity.
  • In your thesis, be sure to identify your target audience, a concrete action the audience can take to solve the problem [solution], and a reason for action [problem/benefit].
  • Example: The San Antonio School District [target audience] should provide every high school student with an electronic tablet [solution] because this will encourage more learning outside of the classroom, increase mastery of skills, and increase college acceptance rates [benefit].
• Don’t worry about getting your thesis perfect this week. At this stage, your thesis is more of a hypothesis that needs to be tested and refined as you dig further into the problem you will attempt to solve.
• Finally, wrap your post up with an open-ended question
