Submit a draft of the Research and Approach sections, addressing all critical elements from Sections II and III in the Final Project Part I Guidelines document.

You will use your research to determine the social variables that have come together to create and sustain your social problem.

You should use these variables to brainstorm some potential solutions. As a social researcher, you must also investigate your own biases.

Think about why this social problem matters to you or how it impacts you. What stereotypes or assumptions do you have regarding this social problem?

How did you learn about these stereotypes or biases?

After investigating how your own biases may impact your research, you will select a sociological theory to help you analyze the problem from a theoretical, structured, and unbiased point of view.

Use this theoretical lens to help explain your problem.
