Part 3 of the Your Lot in Life, paper help
ABOUT PART 3: This paper is worth 20% of your overall grade in the course. In 4-6 (double-spaced, 12 point font) pages describe how you will deal with your Lot in Life. I do not penalize for going over the page limit. As part of your solution you should contact at least two local community agencies (not just Web sites) that can help provide information, training, or support for the problem. Include specifics on how to contact the agency, what services they have available, and how much these services cost. If you include WWW sources for your background research on this topic, review the guidelines about evaluating Web sources given earlier. The rubric in the syllabus gives additional information on how this assignment is graded.
Your paper should have a cover sheet that lists your name, the BEHS section number, the scenario you have chosen, and finally, whether or not the Lot in Life is true or not true for you.
The other two papers (Setting the Scene and Research) should be pasted in at the end of your solution paper.
SUGGESTION: Please contact the community agency early in the week, especially if you are using email. You will want to give the agency plenty of time to respond. Whether you are emailing, making a phone call, or participating in a live chat session I highly recommend that you have a written list of questions prepared ahead of time. This can help focus your communication and help ensure you get the information you need
