News Journal Written Assignment:

News Journals require you to relate current events to the topics covered within POS 2041, American National Government. For
this Journal you will select your own article. The article you select
will determine your success on this Journal. The article must be about
The President, and illustrate a concept discussed in your textbook. The
news article you select must itself be at least 4 paragraphs in length
and come from a major, national news source.

For a list of sources and search possibilities please go the Media tab, on the POS 2041 Lib page. Create your Journal meeting the criteria we have been using and addressing each of the elements below.

  1. Summary – Summarize in paragraph form
    the facts and issues presented in the article. Please document the
    source of your information with a parenthetical reference.
  2. Application – Apply one or more
    concepts from your textbook to the information in the news article.
    Specifically explain how the material in your textbook is illustrated in
    the article you are examining. This can be accomplished by using
    examples from the article and terms or concepts found in the textbook.
  3. Analysis – Provide an analysis that
    identifies the perspective presented in the article and compare it to
    your understanding of principles of the Constitution of the United
    States including the delegated or inherent powers of the president or
    the roles of the president.

Please specifically identify each section by number and title.

Your
essay should be between 300 and 500 words, double-spaced and in APA
